No one's P.O.V
An unforseen event in Daemon's plan to keep Y/n interested in him happened later that day,but luckily for him it actually worked well in his favor. As it turned out Daemon was planning to make his interest for Y/n known at the joust,he wanted to add insult to injury for that Hastings bloke by not only beating him for a second time,but by also wearing Y/N's favour a tradition done in the court of King Henry.
Y/n's P.O.V
As with before I sat beside Thomas at the jousting, this time however Henry is taking part so it is just Jane and Viserys in the royal box and me and Thomas are beside them. Everyone clapped and cheered when Henry mounted on his horse made his way over to Jane to ask for her favour for his lance,as Jane tied the simple white ribbon around the lance a thought came into my head.
"He wouldn't" I say allowed
"Who wouldn't?" Thomas asks, as Henry went to get his helmet
"Well I had the unfortunate pleasure of seeing Hastings this morning and he seemed more determined than normal to get my affection..." I begin
"And you think he might ask for your favor before he rides to make his interest for you know to all" Thomas finished
"Exactly" I say worried.
"You can refuse him Y/n,but what if it where the Targaryen that asked instead? Would you refuse him" Thomas asked
"Well if he asked I'd...." I trailed off,glancing at the red ribbon tied around my wrist. If Thomas Hastings asked for my favor I know I would refuse,but for Daemon Targaryen I don't think I would refuse,the damn man is getting to me.
No one's P.O.V
After wins from both King Henry and Charles Brandon the day is looking more and more in the favor of England to win the day. But it wasn't guaranteed because Westeros still had Criston Cole and Daemon to ride and they are both really good. Sir Criston managed to unseat the Queen's brother Sir Thomas Seymour and the announcer said
"His Highness Prince Daemon Targaryen challenges Sir Thomas Hastings to a rerun"
A shocked murmur flows around the crowd,it is normally the loser that can re challenge a winner not the other way around. The crowd watched as Daemon prepared to receive his lance,but changed his mind took his helmet back off and urged his horse over to the crowd lance in hand.
"Looks like you where right Y/n,someone did want your favor just not the one you thought of first" Thomas says.
Daemon stopped his horse by the royal box after acknowledging his brother,Daemon then turned his attention to Lady Y/n
"Dear Lady L/n would you allow me the honor of wearing you favour?" Daemon asks Y/n. She looked shocked for a moment before standing up and tieing a piece of red ribbon to the end of the lance.
Daemon winked at the lady he had made go slightly pink in the face,and then returned back down the course to get ready for his run. Whilst Daemon put his dragon winged helmet back onto his head,a groom placed the lance into the stirrup beside his leg. When Daemon was ready he look up to the other end of the course and saw Sir Hastings looking very angry back at him.
Daemon smiled to himself knowing he had pissed off the man he would now beat for a second time. Or so he thought, as the flag was dropped the two riders urged there horses forward and aimed there lance's at the other. To the crowd it looked certain that Daemon would unseat Hastings again and win the day for Westeros again but it didn't happen. As the two lance's hit each rider they where both knocked off there horses. Hastings was flung backwards and dragged by his horse,Daemon was knocked sideways from his horse and the horse landed on him.
The entire crowd was on there feet after what they had just witnessed, other riders ran to help the two fallen knights. The two Seymour brother's,Henry and Charles ran to help Daemon whilst grooms helped Hastings. Daemon's horse wasn't injured and managed to stand it's self back up,his rider however hadn't moved since his fall.
