Summer child~Brandon Stark x Reader

Chapter 8- Robb

Once dinner was finished i stretched and stalked after Robb. He noticed me following him about halfway to his bed chambers and he stopped and smiles awkwardly. "Hello y/n. Need something my.." He couldn't seem to find the words. I laugh. "Hush hush I have to talk to you!" He smiles and his shoulders relax. "What's up kiddo?" "So I talked to your father.." "Oh no.." He laughs. "And we're home free baby! You can marry your beautiful love and I can marry!..." I freeze and close my mouth blushing. "Marry...marry...who??? Y/n who?" I blush darkly. "Umm." He starts laughing. He laughs so hard he has his hand on his knee. "You're...Hahha youre.. HAHAHA!!!! You're marrying B-Bran! Hahahahaha aren't you?!" I blush darkly. "Oh shut up! He doesn't know yet!" His hysterical laughter slows to a chuckle. "What? What do you mean he doesn't know..." "This only just happened today. I don't know how to tell him. I really wish your father or mother would.. Like they told you and my parents told me when you and I were engaged.." He thinks for a moment. "I was going to talk to lady catelyn but.." "No no I can talk to my mother. Thanks y/n. Im glad you'll still be able to be a part of our family." "Me too. So you're going to talk to her though? That's very kind but you don't have to." "No it's fine. It's actually quite ridiculous that she tells you to go tell your friend you're going to marry him.. However aren't you two together by now? He's been acting even more obvious lately." "Obvious how?" "Well I mean he's staring at you and spying on you constantly." "Spying on me?? What in the seven hells do you mean spying on me??" He laughs. "Alright well it's no surprise he was spying on you today. He heard Arya telling you things about him from the window above the bow yard. I was with him then. We couldn't hear you guys very well but he watched you for a good hour while I talked with him. Then Osha took him to see you." I nod. I ask about other times. "Well..he used to do it a lot too. But lately it's just he talks about you a lot. I don't know you're all he thinks about. He's more flattered by you is perhaps what I meant.." "Okay but...curious here. When did he spy? When I was little?" "Yah. You are oblivious If you didn't see him. Peeking around the corner? From your window? He climbed back then you know that." "When was he looking in my window??" Robb laughs. "I don't know! You two would be a good match though." I smile. "Bran and y/n." I remark. Robb smiles. "You know..they call him Bran the broken sometimes." I frown deeply. "what? Why would they do that that's so rude and insensible!" He shrugs frowning as well. "I swear if I hear anyone call him that I'll shove a spoon in their neck and dig out..." "OH Kay.. Violent one!" He laughs. "Hey! Y/n and Bran! The creep and the cripple!" He laughs hardly and I hit his arm hard. He only laughs harder. "But really im glad you're going to marry him I always wished you'd marry him instead of me." He chuckes. "Go be with your soulmate brother." I sneer. We laugh. "And you sister." We depart and I set out to find Arya. Might as well give catelyn some time to tell Bran. I felt my heart lift in random happiness. Oh loooord!!! I am betrothed to BRANDON!!!! Ahh... I never expected i would get this lucky.. I smile and squeal skipping around. "What's that you're doing?" I snap my head up to see Rickon giggling and watching me. "Uh.." He giggles. "Let's go do stuff." I nod. "Okay..what stuff..?" "He takes my hand. He's gonna be taller than me im a year. He's already to my chest. He drags me over to his room and closes the door behind him. "I actually just need to talk to you." "Okay what's up?" "Last week this girl showed up. She said this lady wanted her dead. Father let her stay as long as needed. Apparently her father was in the palm of this lady's hand." I nod for him to continue. "Well she left and said she'd come back. Anyways. She's Umm..i don't know." "No come on. Tell me it's okay. I won't tell anyone." "Well she's real pretty." "Uh huh.." I smirk. "She's got this beautiful blonde hair. She's sweet and I dunno." He looks away frustrated. "Someone's got a crush? What's this girl's name?" I ruffle his dirty blonde curls. "Shireen. I know! Such a pretty name.." I smile. "Very." This boy is too cute. What is he..11? 12? "Anyways I don't think mother would want me to marry her." "Well you don't have to think about that now." "Well no. But if I was with her, and we ended up wanting that...mother wouldn't allow it at all." "Why is that?" "She ... She..she has grey scale.." "What?!" "No no it's just scarring!" I let out a breath. "Don't scare me Rickon.." "Sorry..anyways it's scarred on the left side of her face. I think she's pretty anyway but I feel like mother won't allow it." "Just have fun. Worst comes to worst and your mother gives you a problem I'll talk to her for you." "He smiles. But what If your not here?" "Oh I'll be here.." "Robb is going to kings landing though." "Well she won't be giving you a problem anytime soon. And it doesn't matter Robb and I..aren't compatible." "Oh..what happens to you if you marry someone you don't love?" "Well you're still forced to marry. I was lucky." "Why??? ...your face is Gettin all red." "Nothing Rickon." We hear a knock on the door. "My lady? Are you in there? I was told to run a bath for you. It's ready." I stand up. "We can talk after okay? And do whatever you want." "Alright." He stands up too, hand slightly outstretched like he doesn't want me to leave. "I'll be back!" I give him a smile and lean down to hug him." As i return to my bedchambers I see the bath has been filled. I close the door behind me and strip myself of my clothing. I sink into the warm water and relax. I sigh completely content. Being so warm is so nice. For a while I just sit in the bath enjoying the luxury. Of course though something had to interrupt me. I heard walking. Loud booming walking. Then out of the no where my door flies open. My eyes flash open and I gasp. "Hodor!! I SAID TO KNOCK!!!" I blush darkly. Brans head turns to see me in the tub.. The water isn't completely clear but im sure he could see. I slowly raise my arms to cover my chest just in case. "O-oh..y/n im sorry! Hodor we should.." He keeps staring at me. I press my lips together and blush. "We should Umm.." "Bran!" "Huh? Yeah..im sorry!! Im really sorry..hodor we need to go. Now. ..now Hodor.. Hodor we have to leave!" He shouts. "Wait.." I call. "His eyes meet mine. "Why did you come here?" "Uh..oh because I was told..I mean..my mother she talked to me and said something and i wanted to talk to you." I blush and smile knowing what it is. "Yah. I know." "I wanted to see you..because..because we're.." I giggle. "I just wanted to make sure you were happy because I am! But..only if you're happy.." "You're my best friend of course I am happy! He smiles "okay I'll go now." Hodor turns and they begin to leave the door. They start shutting the door so I stand up. Might as well get out now before anyone else walks in on me. "Hey y/n.. Oh gods.." I freeze. You can't be serious..please gods no.. "S-sorry!! Oh my..Hodor go please.. Gods.." I blush darkly and the door closes. I stand there for a moment shock settling in. at first I feel like crying. But once I get a nightgown on and im comfortable in my own skin I start to forget how humiliating it was. He's my best friend..and within the next year he's bound to see that all anyway. Marriage means sex.. I flinch thinking about it. Not that im not interested it's just..I like to think im a child. Not a soon to be mother. I think about my appearance.. Am I thin enough? Strong enough? Do I look feminine enough..I frown wishing I didn't have to think of these things and I try to push the thoughts away. He seemed..interested though. I hear a knock. And muffled yells. "Come in?" It comes out more like a question. It's Osha with Bran in her arms and she's covering his mouth and he's doing all he can to push himself away from her which was increasingly difficult since he was crippled. I fight the urge to smile. "The little lord told me what happened so Im making him face you." I laugh. She shuts the door and places him down. He immediately tries to crawl to the door. She rushes to block the door. "️haha don't torture him!" I smirk. He looks up at her and she smirks down at him. "Not happenin little lord." I snicker and she picks him up and makes him sit on my bed. He crosses his arms like a toddler. "This isn't fair Osha! Y/n I am so sorry..." I blush and look down. "It's fine Bran." I stress it and laugh a bit trying to make him feel calm. I catch a glimpse of him eying my chest. Well eyeing was an understatement. He was staring. Osha walks over and slaps his head. "Ow!" "Quit starin.." He blushes and mutters. "She didn't need to know that.." I purse my lips trying not to laugh. As if it wasn't incredibly obvious. "Don't fret girl. He said you're beautiful." "Osha!" She shouts in surprise. "You're a boy. Boys are pigs. Of course you liked it." "OSHA!" He snapped. She only laughed at him. "The little lord told me it was worse for him." "Osha please.." He whines. I snicker. He's like a puppy. even if this is making me EXTREMELY uncomfortable..im still very flattered. I mean Bran is really hot too.. Id like the thought that he thought so for me too. And the thought he'd think im beautiful...Id probably scream and squeal about it in the night knowing me. Osha continues. "Because he liked it." He made noises that sounded like panting or heavy breathing through his teeth. He was staring at her; if looks could kill.. She laughed and left. "No wait!! You can't just leave me here!" "Why not?" "Not after what you said." "It's your fault you let the giant walk you in on her, and you're fault you stared!" He glared at her as she left his teeth showing from his bewildered expression and I blushed. "So.."
