"Are you still pissed?" Jon asked her a couple of hours later. She was outside in the garden. They supposed to spend the day together but Ygriette ruined their weekend with her amazing wedding plans.
"I am not pissed."
"Tell it to the roses." He answered while she was still intersecting the bush. "The gardener has a lot of work to revive those." He stated. Dany turned to him with the secateurs.
"I am not pissed. I'm raging." She answered and looked straight to his eyes.
"Dany." He stepped closer.
"Do not. I don't care. I ... " she sighed " I told you. Do it in the way you want. But miss me out on it."
"You'll have the wedding what you want. I promise." He stepped more close to her and took the scissors from her hand and throw it away. "Just... I am afraid we... have to do this one too."
"Why? Because your perfect world expect this from you? Why do you care about it that much? Why do you care what they think about you?" She was intense.
"Because " he lowered his head "My father would've wanted me to do this in that way." He took a deep breath and held her hands. Dany stopped. Now she understood. It is not because of Ygriette or anyone else. It was because of his father. "At least I don't want him to disappoint in me... now. I know he is dead and it sounds ... stupid but..."
"No." She caressed his hand. "No. It is not. But ... you should've told me." She answered quietly.
"I don't really... usually I don't show or tell my real emotions and feelings to anyone. You know it." He placed his forehead to hers.
"But you can show me. And tell me everything. I am... the woman you're gonna marry. If you are not honest with me... then with who?" She whispered.
"Yeah." He nodded and gave a kiss to her forehead.
"I love you, Jon. But that ... Ygriette really tries my patience. I... " she hesitated.
"You don't trust her." He frowned.
"No. No, I don't. And I don't want her to be around us. When she shows up we... we usually just fight. I don't wanna fight with you."
"Me neither." He smiled a bit and caressed her cheek.

"She hates me. She wants me to disappear from your life and she would do everything to achieve it."
"No. I don't think so. She just... wants to help. In her own way. Help you to fit this society."
"To fit this society?" Dany took a step back "Am I not good enough to be the wife of Mr. Gorgeous Jon Snow?" She asked him.
"I did not say that. She just... thinks some etiquette and decency lessons would help you to understand how this world works.
"What?" Dany shocked and took another step back.
"I..."
"You know what? If I am not good enough for you in this way then find someone else." She raised her voice. "Maybe she is the one who fits you perfectly. No one would have a problem if you marry her. Not an average girl who has no name and money." She started to leave.
"Dany." He stopped her and grabbed her by her arm.
"Let me go. Now." She hissed and pulled her arm from her body. "I need to get out of here. Right now."
"You cannot leave alone." He stepped closer.
"Just watch." She told straight to his face then turned away from him and walked away. Jon went after her. She slammed the door.
"Stop for fuck sake." Jon yelled with her but she did not answer. "I've told you..."
"Told me what? You've told me many things. You've told me you don't care about anyone else. You've told me you'll marry me in the way I want it. The way we want it. You've told me ... you love me the way I am. You've told me you are done with her but she is still here in our lives... again and again. All of those were lies. Everything you've told me." She was yelling with him.
"You know it is not true."
"No. No, I don't know. I don't know anything. I just... "she sighed " I just need some time alone. Without you. And outside your world." She turned away again and stormed out of the house.

"Dany." He went after her but she sat into the car and drove away. He immediately went back for his car keys.
"Let her go. For now." Jamie heard everything.
"She cannot be alone. You know it." He was nervous.
"I go after her but you need to give her some space. Some time to... understand."
"Understand what?"
"That you love her." He answered and placed his hand to his shoulder. Then he took away the car key from his hand. Jon watched him leave and he was totally destroyed. Maybe he was wrong. Maybe he should just send Ygriette away. Maybe he should just... he just wanted to be good enough for everyone. He just wanted ... he did not want to shame his father's name.
