Narcissa watches as her twin sister Nya goes off with the boys to see this Night's Watch deserter. She wishes she could go with but Nissa acts more of a lady then her twin so she stays behind with Sansa, Arya, Rickon, and Lady Catelyn.

Her gold eyes follow Robb Stark as he leaves with the others and Nya turns and winks at her, smiling wickedly then follows Jon.

Nissa turns back to the girls left behind. "Nissa?" Sansa looks at her curiosusly with Lady Catelyn's blue eyes that Robb also had.

"Yes Sansa?" Nissa wondered where she would go with this coversation.

"Are you and Robb going to get married?" Sansa smiles. "That would be just the greatest and so romantic," she sighs happily, "then we'd be sisters by blood." She continues to sew as Septa Mordane had shown all the girls of Winterfell.

Nissa looks quizzically at Lady Catelyn and she smile at her. Cause that helped me. Nissa thought to herself. She looks back to Sansa. "We aren't betrothed yet Sansa. Though I admit the thought of marrying him makes me happy," Nissa smiles.

Sansa looks to her mother. "How come you and father won't let them be betrothed?" She asks. "Please mother they are perfect for each other." Nissa shifts as Sansa goes on and on on how great a couple her and Robb would be.

It's not that it's uncomfortable because they are already together it's just that, well, actually there is nothing wrong but Sansa doesn't exactly need to talk about it in public, does she? Nissa smiles and shakes her head.

"Your father and I need to speak to Narcissa's father about the match Sansa," Lady Catelyn tells her eldest daughter, lovingly tugging on her auburn hair.

"Then soon, yes?" Sansa's blue eyes shine with excitement.

Lady Catelyn looks at Nissa and Nissa smiles and gives a slight nod.

"Maybe," Lady Catelyn tells her eldest daughter.

"Where's Arya?" Nissa wonders out loud so they are not speaking about her and Robb and what exactly they do together.

Sansa shrugs and Catelyn looks around for her youngest daughter. "Might I be excused?" Nissa asks politely.

"Yes dear," Catelyn says and Nissa skips off to her and Robb's spot where she goes to see Robb or think. Obviously, as of now, she is thinking.

The promises they made each other when they were seven ... Nissa has a feeling that in year's time he will break one of those promises. She just has an awful feeling. Her dreams are dark and quiet, soft hissing noises and voices that say Robb will fall after he dishonors her.

No. Nissa thinks forcefully. Robb Stark would never break his promise to love her forever, to wed her and help her get with his heir. He's always so gentle with her, quiet and thoughtful and loving. He'd never dishonor her. Would he though? Nissa's gold eyes fill with sudden tears and she bats them away. How can I be with him if my dreams whisper of his betrayal and death? Nissa shoves the thoughts away and sits on the rock that Robb and her had often kissed on.

"Come back to me, my love, I am bored and rather lonely at the moment," Nissa says out loud and then curses herself for speaking at all. She wonders where her lord father, Jason Mallister is. She remembers when he sent her and Nya to Winterfell with a soft promise that he'd see them but it would be a while. He sent letters often enough that made the sister laugh and sometimes cry. He had sent them to Winterfell in the first place because of their mother's death. Their mother had died giving birth to their, what would have been, three years younger brother and he hadn't come out alive at all.

"Nissa?"

Nissa's head snaps around at Robb's voice.

"Robb!" Nissa tackles him with a hug and he laughs.

"Miss me much?" He kisses her gently and Nissa wraps her arms around his neck, kissing him back just as gently, expressing her love for him.

She wisely doesn't answer his question. Instead, her attention is drawn to the pup at the base of the rock. "Is that a direwolf?" She swings down and holds out a hand to the grey bundle.

"Yeah, Jon and I found six of them. They are our pets now. One for each of the Stark children and the sixth went to Jon. His name is Grey Wind." The pup sniffs at Nissa's hand and looks up at her then settles in her lap. "He likes you," Robb says affectionately.

Nissa looks up into his blue eyes and with one hand, pulls him down and kisses him.

"Mine," Robb mumbles against her mouth and Nissa smiles wickedly against him. He breaks away and Grey Wind hops out of her lap as Robb pushes her down on her back. "You know what?" He asks thoughtfully.

"What?" Nissa asks breathlessly.

He smiles at her wickedly. "I love you."
He covers her mouth with his and bites gently at her lower lip.

Nissa makes a soft sound of pleasure in the back of her throat and pushes him away after savouring it for another moment longer. "We shoud go back before they send out a search party for me," Nissa says.

"Actually they did send out a search party for you. You've been missing for hours or so Sansa claims," Robb says.

"Yes but Sansa has a way of overexaggerating things." Nissa pushes her hair behind her ear.

"Mmmmm. Lucky you I found you first." Robb kisses Nissa once more then they head off arm in arm back to everyone else.

Nya tackle Nissa with a hug and curses her for 'losing track of time' as Nissa had told everyone. Jon smirks at Nissa's sister and Nya blushes. Nissa rolls her eyes when her stomach rumbles loudly. It's her turn to blush as Robb smirks at her.

"Come on," he says and she follows him to where the smell of food is making her mouth water.
