They had been on their horses for what felt like years, her back was sore, her legs numb every night, but Brandon assured her it had only been a month and a half. Supposedly they would be there by nightfall though she imagined that the following hours would be her very own hell seeing as Robert insisted on riding with her.
Her entertainment for the past month and a half had been at first a drunk Joanna who could barely ride on her horse and then her idiot brothers who all had poison Ivy due to choosing the wrong spot to piss. They all groaned and moaned every time their horses moved which brought laughter from herself along with few giggles from Joanna. Though it seemed her brothers did not take kindly to their mockery for they would glare back at the girls anytime they laughed. Could they blame them for laughing? The boys were quite a sight to behold and Robert being affected as well meant that he didn't talk as much! It was a blessing in disguise for she had decided to kill him on the third day of traveling, but the poison Ivy saved him.
"Lady Lyanna can you not manage just a smidgen of sympathy for your poor betrothed? I sit and grumble in pain just to have you laugh at me, and you're my love and future wife!" Her gray eyes barely glanced at him as they rode side by side, but she could see his signature smirk just from the corner of her eye. She wished immediately that Joanna had ridden by her side or that her brothers, one of them at least had come to check on her.
To be a tease she looked at him with a small frown pretending she was concerned "My poor love has a wound from a great battle! Oh, woe is me I can't believe that the plant has hurt you so!"Her hand flew to her forehead as she pretended to faint before laughing "Robert the only thing I feel sorry for is your horse who has to deal with your fat ass shifting this whole time."
Robert seemed to want to bait her on at this point, or he was trying to get killed for he grabbed her horses reins from her hands and pulled her closer "Oh Lyanna will you kiss me and make it all better?"
She at first couldn't believe what she was hearing but then remembered it was Robert that was talking to her, so she decided to play along. First, she moved her head as close as she could to him to the point where her lips almost touched his before turning towards his ear where she whispered very softly "Oh Robert. The only kiss you'll ever receive from me is my fist kissing your cheek as hard as it can." He was stiff as a tree as she grabbed her reins from his hands and turned her horse around to be with Joanna.
Thank the old Gods and new that the boy didn't follow her because Joanna was not Joanna but a giddy Joanna. The young girl apparently had developed a serious relationship with a young guard "Joanna, I really must ask you not to smile so much it's starting to make my cheeks hurt." Both girls shared a giggle before Joanna glanced behind them towards where Lyanna assumed her guard was "He is so handsome Lyanna, I swear if he ever asks me I'll marry him."
It had been hours since she had gotten rid of Robert but it seemed she traded one flirt for a lovesick puppy, and she was thankful they were finally arriving at Harrenhal. The castle was grand no doubt, but it all seemed rather lonely even with the thousands of tents spread across the acres of land, it still seemed empty. Benjen rode up beside her jumping up and down due to the excitement. "We're here Lyanna, what do you think? It's exciting isn't it?" her lips pursed as she glanced at the young boy whose eyes held a look of wonder.
