II-Not So Formal
While my father was introducing the rest of my family I was just looking at Lord Stark's bastard of witch I didn't know his name properly yet he wouldn't take a glance at me until my father pulled me out of my thoughts.
"And lastly my youngest daughter here with us Kim BlueJay." He said smiling at me.
I stepped forward with nervousness as I curtsied to them, I couldn't help but notice Lord Stark's bastard staring at me intently his eyes betraying no emotion, or was that my imagination?
Now Lord Stark introduced his family, his oldest son as we know Robb Stark, his oldest daughter Sansa, next his youngest daughter Arya, (I don't quite remember the name of her so please leave it in the comments) his next son Bran, next his youngest son and child Ricken, and lastly his bastard Jon Snow...
My mind lingered on Jon's name as I realized something came tumbling towards me it hit me to the ground as I somehow stumbled on top of it laying on the ground my hands on 'its' chest. My vision was blurry but now I was sure 'it' wasn't an 'it' at all! It was Robb Stark himself I quickly got up slipping on the floor falling backwards into the arms of Jon. Robb got up slowly rubbing his head, luckily for me I was still being cradled into the arms of Jon my head lying on his chest how'd my head get there?
I jumped away as soon as I realized my position and Jon made a slightly disappointed look that I'd left his arms I don't really know why though.
I turned to Robb. "I'm sorry my Lord!" I said frantically.
Still rubbing his head Robb looked up at down at me. "No it's not your fault my Lady, I need to be more careful. " I could see a hint of frustration in his though.
"Well I will have my family personally show you to your rooms!,"Lord Stark broke in. "Robb I want you to show Lady Carisa to her room, Sansa can you show Lord Francisco to his room, I will show Lord & Lady BlueJay to their rooms. "
"Father!" Jon said to his father quickly. "What about Lady Kim?" He asked.
"Oh yes how can I forget!," Lord Stark said "You may show her to her room Jon. "With a flick of his hand he dismissed us all.
Everyone exited except Jon and I. "Well... Lady Kim I should show you to your room. "Jon said rather nervously.
My cheeks turned a crimson red and I guess Jon noticed because his flushed a bright pink. The atmosphere felt tight and awkward between us. I quickly nodded. "Yes. "To break the silence as I followed after him.
We walked slowly Jon and I. "Well, I'm sorry about earlier..." He said slowly and stuttered.
"Oh!" I quickly remembered how my head was against his chest as he cradled me lightly in his strong arms. "I-it's fine. "I quickly replied.
"If I must say Lady Kim you are quite beautiful.." Jon said as his voice was overcome with nervousness I felt it.
"Oh, thank you," I kicked my feet as we walked refusing to look at him.
I felt Jon's eyes looking at me. "You may call me Jon if you'd like," He said slowly and awkwardly. "May I call you-"
"Yes!" I cut him off loudly, I don't think he thought I was being rude when he obiously saw my cheek turn beat red.
After the rest of the walk in silence we came to my room. "This is your room. " Jon said quietly as he opened the doors to my new stunning room.
"It's beautiful. "I commented as I stepped into the the neon green room. I turned back I the door frame looking a Jon.
Jon inched closer to me while looking into my eyes. I was frozen I didn't move. Jon's face was now centimeters away from mine so that I could feel his breath. We stood in silence and it looked at if Jon was going to lean in to kiss me. I jumped back and looked to the balcony doors like nothing happened. "Nice I have my own balcony!" I said ignoring what just had happened.
I turned back to Jon to see his face fill with disappointment. As did mine I could feel one half of me saying 'don't kiss him you'll never be able to be with him' and the other half saying 'kiss him...'
I walked back to Jon and on my way I slipped again and fell. Wow their floors are slippery. Then again I fell in the same position as I was when I first fell, my head to Jon's chest our bodies extremely close together while he cradled me in his strong safe arms.
I looked up to Jon's face seeing he had a sweet smile. "You just love getting close to me don't you?" Jon said as he began to stroke my hair
Embarrassment flooded over me as my cheeks turned pink again, but I have to admit I feel so good like this but I know it can't go on. I pulled myself away. "I just slipped. "I answered.
"Maybe you can slip again. "Jon gave me a flirtatious wink and walked out of my room.
I stood there with a blank stare as he shut the door behind him. What just happened?
A few hours later at dinner time we were called down for a feast to celebrate the betrothal if Carisa and Robb.
I quietly walked down the stairs to the Great Hall for the feast, being stopped by no one on my way I walked inside. Everyone had arrived except for Robb, I guess his fall hurt him bad.
Soon Robb came inside and sat down beside Carisa, of course Carisa giggled at him and got closer. On my case I had Jon sitting next to me, I decided to sit here because I didn't want to deprive Carisa of Robb or at least I think thats why I sat here.
Lord Stark made a speech about joining our houses and thanked my father. After his long speech we tucked into our meal. I couldn't help but glance at Jon on my right every once and a while. That was until I felt Jon's hand brush my thigh gently. I jumped hitting my knee on the stable. Of course that made the plates shake as everyone put their eyes on me.
"Sorry...," I felt embarrassment as I made up a excuse. "I thought I saw a spider. "I played it off fine but I could feel Jon's glances on me.
After I finished my meal I set down my fork and knife as everyone around me began to finish as well.
"Now may I-"My father began but my mother cut him off.
"Announce this in 3 days. "She said looking at him awkwardly.
Everyone prickled with confusion now as heads were turned. "I dismiss everyone I want to speak to Lord BlueJay alone. "Lord Stark said.
I nodded and got up starting my way back to my room. Near the start of my walk to my room I felt a touch to my arm. I turned my head to see Jon but instead I saw Carisa. Carisa smiled at me delightfully. "The wedding is in 4 months. "She basically danced. I giggled. "How do you like Robb?" I asked
"He's nice but I need to ask you something. "She said quite urgently.
"What is it Carisa?" I wrinkled my brow looking at her.
"Jon," Carisa started as my stomach seemed to drop. "You seem to have a...a thing going on between you two?" She said to me
"N-no!" I said loudly.
"Shhhh," Carisa said to me. "Keep it down," she paused before continuing. "I saw him, I saw him touch your leg. "
I didn't answer her I stayed quiet.
"Did you come on to him?" My sister asked quietly whispering.
"No!" I whispered to her her.
"So he violated you!?!?" My sister as a hard time whispering.
"No, I mean yes...no. "I said almost too quiet for her to hear.
"Your okay with him touch you like that?" She asked another question.
That one bothered me I shook my head and walked off to my room leaving Carisa to think to herself.
