The Golden Lion's Rose // Game of Thrones - To New Beginnings - Page 9 (2024)
"Excuse me", I whispered, as I tried to get by.
I watched as Sandor Clegane and his brother, Gregor Clegane began having a duel. I heard sword clashing together as I made my way towards Loras, not caring whos feet I stepped on. Finally, I made it to where the King, and his children were sitting, which was also where Loras was.
"Stop this madness in the name of your King!", yelled King Robert, and Sandor Clegane immediately bend the knee, and Ser Gregor's sword sliced the air where Sandor's head would have been if he hadn't bent down. Everybody gasped at such actions, and then The Mountain dropped his sword on the ground, and walked away without even bowing to his King.
"Let him go!", yelled the King, and the King's Guard as well as the men stood aside, letting the Mountain walk by.
I stand corrected. There is another difference between the tournaments of Highgarden and King's Landing.
I clutched my hands in front of me as I noticed Prince Joffrey watching me from his stool. I gave him a small smile, before looking back at my brother worriedly.
"I owe you my life, Ser", said Loras as he walked up to the Mountain's younger brother.
"I am no Ser", replied Sandor, looking back at his King.
Loras took the Hound's hand , and raised it into the air as a sign of victory. Everybody cheered and clapped at this act. Meaning that Loras and Sandor would be sharing the winning prize, and Loras chose to do this as a sign of gratitude for saving his life.
I was proud of my big brother. And very relieved that nothing happened to him.
"Alright, alright. Enough of this. Let's begin with the Melee", ordered the King as the servants took away the dead body of the horse.
The Hound walked away, to stand back next to Prince Joffrey, while Loras started to walk back to the stables. I quickly walked behind him, not caring what others thought.
"Loras, you great fool!", I scolded him quietly as we entered and his servants began taking the armour off him.
"I am the fool? He is the one who attacked me, and beheaded his horse", argued Loras, rolling his shoulder backwards, stretching it.
"And you could have gotten seriously hurt, or worse, you could have died", I added quickly, putting my hands on my hips disapprovingly.
"But I didn't", replied Loras with a smile and I shook my head, not knowing whether I should laugh or scream at him.
"You got lucky this time. Promise me that you won't do something so stupid, and irresponsible and reckless again", I order to him and he sighed, acting annoyed.
"I promise", he said, rolling his eyes.
I was about to say more when I heard someone else enter the stables. I looked over, and I should have known.
"Renly... I mean- my lord", stuttered Loras as he stood up from his stool. The servants bowed, and took away the armour to clean and repair, leaving us. I bowed my head a little, acknowledging my brother's lover but not looking directly at him.
"I just came to see how you were, Ser Loras. What Ser Gregor did out there was unacceptable, and I assure you that he will receive consequences", said Renly, and rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly. Loras and Renly shared an uncomfortable look, and then my brother looked at me.
"I can see that I am not wanted here. So I will leave you two. Have fun, but not too much fun", I said, correcting myself at the last part right away but Loras just gave my shoulder a push, meaning that I needed to go. I laughed, leaving the stables, and ready to go back to the Red Keep. This whole Tournament was wearing me out.
"Leaving so soon?", asked a co*cky voice behind me, and I turned around with a smile.
"Why? Will you miss me?", I asked playfully.
================================
=================================
"Only a little", replied Ser Jaime with a smirk as he walked closer.
"Did you like the rose I have given you?", he asked, pointing to the flower I still held in my hands.
"I did, very much. Thank you, Ser Jaime", I replied. "It is nice to know that even though you are in the King's Guard, you still know how to court a lady".
"Did my skills prove to be what people described them to be?", asked the Lannister curiously, and I faked being thoughtful making him laugh.
========================================
========================================
"Mmmm. They were alright. There are some things you could work on", I replied jokingly to his question, making him laugh even more, which in return made me laugh.
"If I weren't in the King's Guard, I may have actually asked you to marry me", he flirted and I turned my head a little upwards and to the side.
"If you weren't in the King's Guard, I may have actually said yes", I replied, with a bright smile.
Ser Jaime Lannister seemed to be taken aback by that, although he was trying to hide it. I wondered why.
"Have a good day", I replied,with a smirk of my own and turning around and walking away towards my carriage that was already ready for me to ride in.
==================================
===================================
Who knew the Ser Jaime Lannister could be a romantic?
