Two weeks, two horribly long weeks into the journey to Winterfell and Josslyn had barley been allowed out of the carriage. During the day both her and her lady in waiting Layra were confined in the small area. At night they slept, they also ate most of their meals inside of that carriage. Jaime just said that the Kings Road was no place for two young girls to be and he would not chance her getting hurt.

"Jaime, please I am dying in here, we are dying in here we need to get out, just for a little bit. Please" Josslyn pleaded with her brother as the travel party was about to stop to rest and water the horses.

"No Josslyn, you will not get out and wonder around, it is dangerous out here, this is not home." Yes Jaime know that kings landing was not that much safer than where they are but at least there she was in the castle and no one dared to hurt the queen sister. But out here she was out in the open where anything could happen to her.

"You are being ridiculous ,please Jaime, at least let us eat outside of this dungeon tonight." He knew he was most likely being over barring but all he wanted to do was protect her.

Giving him the most pitiful look she could muster Josslyn made sure to have her chin quiver as if she was about to cry. With that one look Jaime found it hard to deny his baby sisters request and with one big sigh he agreed reluctantly but still agreed.
"Fine but you two will eat with four guards next to you and then get back into the carriage, is that understood?"

Both Josslyn and Layra let out loud squeals. And climbed out of the carriage as quick as they could,and made their way to the camp fire to get something to eat with the four guards that Jaime had assigned to them close behind.
Jaime couldn't help but smile seeing Josslyn so happy with the biggest smile one her face,that is one of the thing he loves most about her.

Tonight was one of the few times they traveled throughout the night. Josslyn and Layra found it very difficult to sleep trough the rough travel and the newly crisp air they came to the further north they headed.

"What do you think Winterfell will be like?" Layra asked. Josslyn knew that Layra was more excited about the whole idea about her marrying the young lord of Winterfell then she was.

"I am not certain, all I have ever head about it is That it is bitter cold and a wasteland" Josslyn just repeated what she has heard her whole life from her father and sister. "if it looks anything like here I think it will be beautiful." Layra told her lady. Josslyn nodded in agreement. "I just hope that Robb Stark is as honorable as people say he is."

"I am sure he will be wonderful and you will make him fall for you as soon as he sees you." Josslyn couldn't help but smile and blush as her best friend's lovely words. "Layra you are to kind, but I feel you might be expecting to much, as long as he is kind to me I will be extremely grateful."
