Daenerys

Somehow I woke up in your bed. I don't remember leaving the cemetery. I just remember being in your arms and then darkness. And now I'm here; in your bed. I don't realize that it's your bed until I turn around and breathe in your scent. I also failed to notice a big white dog jumping on me and licking me.

"Ghost go eat. Ghost!" Your dog I'm assuming, Ghost immediately walks away and goes downstairs. "Morning".

I look over and your already looking at me. But not at me. Your looking everywhere else.

"Uh hi. How did I end up here?"

"You passed out at the cemetery and we were closer to my place then yours. I'll take you home whenever your ready". You won't make eye contact with me. You keep avoiding it. You-you just keep moving around.

"Yeah yeah sure. I'm ready to go now". I say in a quiet voice. You noticed. That doesn't surprise me.

"Daene-"

"Where's your bathroom?" I cut you off before you can even finish my name. I don't want to hear it. I can't. You point to the door behind you. I walk past you without even a glance.

I knew I shouldn't have told you. I knew it. But I did. I told you because I'm in love with you. Stupid I know. I barely know you and I'm already in love with you. But here I am. Crying in your bathroom completely and inevitably in love with you. Wishing you ask me to stay, even if it's for a couple of minutes. A knock interrupts my thoughts.

"Daenerys open the door"

"I'-I'll be out in a minute"

"Dany" . Fuck.

"Stop calling me that! My name is Daenerys! Not Dany. So please to the new gods and old STOP CALLING ME DANY". I scream at you through the door. I don't want to open it.

"Open the door. Daenerys". You say smoothly and calmly. Of course you put the emphasis on saying my name. And I hate it. I hate that I opened that goddamn door.

"I-"

"Come on"

"What?"

"I want to take you somewhere. Come on". I follow you out of the room. I follow you down the stairs. I follow you into your car.

Ned's Car Shop

"Jon what are we doing here?" I ask looking over at you.

"I have to work on a couple of cars and your going to help me". You say getting out of the car. You still won't look at me. I grab your arm to stop you.

"Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why do you want ME to help you?" You turn around and look at me.

"Why did you come here the other day looking for me?"

"I-I don't know". You take a step closer.

"Yes you do. Why did you come here the other day?" I look up at the ceiling. You know. You know I love you. I can't tell you. But you know. I look back at you and your still focused on me.

"You know why Jon"

You just nod your head. You wanted me to say it. But I couldn't. You start to walk away from me. You turn around still walking and say to me. "That's why your coming to help me fix these cars". So I follow you. Because you know and I know if I leave then I won't wake up remembering this day. But if I stay, well then.

"Grab those keys over there. With the blue ribbon on them."

"Jon I-I-"

"Dany"

You just look at me. You know I was about to thank you. "Start the car up." You turn around to go get a tool box. I walk over to the car and for the first time in a long time I feel okay.

I feel okay.
