"Loneliness will kill you." Marisa says while rolls her eyes. "Give him some chance, he really seems to like you."
I giggle at her remark and blush, but shake my head. She raises her eyebrows and motions me to speak.
"He likes me, but he doesn't love me. And he won't love me once he knows me." I say with voice full of wisdom. "No one does. So, he will be no difference." She sighs and sits next to me.
"Bianca... he is... everyone wants him, but he chose you and he is doing everything to get to know you." She tells me in a low voice and nudges me. "Give him a chance. I am sure he will love you."
They are leaving. Horses and soldiers were first. Nearly everyone has left but Sansa, Arya, Ned and Royal Family.
"Bianca." King Robert approaches and me and hugs me tightly. "I missed you, young lady." He sighs and another set of tears appear in his blue eyes. "Do you remember how we played?" I nod and smile at the fond memory. "I was devastated when I heard about you... I don't know through what you went, but I am sure you deserve better future." He tells me and puts his large hand on my shoulder. "Take care of yourself and if you need something, there will always be place for you in King's Landing." I nod and hug the old man in front of me.
After him comes Queen Cersei, who leaves the aura of authority wherever she goes.
"Your grace." I tell her, but she shakes her head and motions me to straighten myself.
"No need for formalities." She tells me kindly and gives me sweetest smile I have ever seen. "I hope to see you back in King's Landing one day." With that she disappears into her carriage.
"Lady Stark." Jaime kisses my hand again and gives me another knowing smile. "I am truly sorry for what happened to your brother. I hope he will soon be better." And then he disappears as well.
"Bianca!" Arya hugs me suddenly and nearly causes me to fall. But luckily, Theon was near me to catch me. "I am sorry." Arya whispers in scared voice, but I assure her with a hug.
"I will miss you." I whisper in her ear and smile. "Take care of Sansa for me, will you?" She looks at me for a long time but finally nods at me.
Sansa approaches me with the way a true lady should. She gives me a slight hug and looks at me with misty eyes.
"Oh, Sansa." I whisper and hug her again. "Don't cry... you are going to get married to the Prince!" I cheer her up and smile at her. "We will soon meet, I promise you that." She nods and goes to Queen Cersei, who smiles at her kindly.
I soon find myself approaching the prince and nudge him slightly to gain his attention. He looks at me angrily and confused at the same time.
"Hello Joffrey." I greet him kindly, but his face changes.
"I am Prince Joffrey!" He demands and I roll my eyes at his actions.
"So, Joffrey." I go on as if I haven't heard him. "Don't look at me like that, I won't call you your highness." I say with another set of rolling eyes. "Take care of Sansa, okay? Don't let anyone hurt her." I whisper at him and he nods. "If she is hurt in one form or another, I promise to everything that Nightshade will take care of you." As I said her name she appears next to me, scaring Prince Joffrey. "Got what I mean?" He nods and runs to the Hound, scared for this life.
"You scared future king?" Ned asks behind me and I chuckle, nodding.
"I am not happy about their future marriage." I admit it to uncle and he nods. "I am scared that he might hurt Sansa. She is... so fragile and blind by love..."
"I know." Ned sighs and looks at the said girl. "She will choose Joffrey over us..."
"Keep an eye on her." I warn him and look back at him. "Never leave her alone, especially when she is with queen." I sigh and just before he leaves I stop him. "Don't... if you decide that it would be better for them to return to Winterfell... don't tell it to Sansa... lie to her that it's just small voyage for her to entertain... while tell truth to Septa Mordaine." He nods, confused, but nods. "Keep safe." I hug him and move backwards and mom approaches him.
"You look sad." Theon whispers in my ear and hugs me from behind.
"Shouldn't I be sad?" I ask him back and put my head on his chest. "I found my family after so long... and they are disappearing again." I whisper, which causes even tighter grip around me.
"You are never losing me..." Theon whispers in my ear and kisses me on the head. "I will always be by your side. I promise."
