Hollow Crown / Margaery Tyrell / Sansa Stark x OC Male

10. Surprise

"Am i going to lose the arm?"

"You are fine." Garrett demanded "just a scratch-"

"I want that beast killed!" Joffrey demanded

"What happened?" Cersei demanded.

"They attacked me-"

"Joffrey attacked-"

"Shut up!" Joffrey spat.

"Tell me this instant!" Cersei demanded "the truth."

"They beat me and threw my sword in the river."

"Thats not what-" arya spat

"Yes it is!" Joffrey demanded

"Garrett?" Cersei turned to him. He sighed heavily

"Last chance to tell the truth joff." Garrett instructed

"That is the truth." Joffrey insisted.

"Tis not." Garrett countered.

"Fine. When i arrived joffrey was waving his sword around at arya and her friend-"

"Shut up!"

Arya thought joffrey and sansa would be perfect together

"-i told him to stop we bickered lady sansa ran off and then.." garrett smiled slyly at arya. "Words were exchanged and joffrey charged himself at arya. Her wolf defended her."

"Where is the sword?" Cersei questioned. Arya had grabbed it and threw it so he wouldnt try to kill her wolf.

"I tried to get it from joffreys inexperienced hand but he sent it flying in fear." Garrett answered

"Thats not what happened!" Joffrey demanded

"Which part?" Garrett countered.

"Well one thing is certain." Cersei decided. "The wolves must go. They are dangerous-"

"Protective." Garrett corrected

"-beasts." Cersei clarified.

"I can have one of my men bring them home." Ned offered. Aryas face fell she didnt want to lose nymeria

"I want them dead!" Joffrey spat

"Lord stark is right they should be sent home." Garrett cut in. "See to it that your cuildren have time to say goodbye before they leave in the morning." Garrett left no room for debate. Robert leaned back the fat lug that he was and nodded. His boy would be king would day. A good king. Damn it he was good at this too.

Heading to bed that night garrett heard a knock on his door. Arya stood outside

"Hello little wolf."

"Why did you lie and say it was you?" Arya questioned

"Does no good saying you did it." Garrett offered. "I wont get in trouble for reprimanding my little brother. You Would."

"Thank you." Arya said softly. "I know im in no position to ask for favors but could i train at the capital with you and Jon?"

"What does your father about that?"

"Nothing yet." Arya admitted

"I wont go behind your fathers back but if he agrees then you can join us." Garrett negotiated

"Thanks Garrett."

"Night little wolf."

Sansa was so very sad that Lady had left for the north. She was so excited to be southern wolf sansa knew it.

Sansa rushed to find Garrett the next morning, he smiled when he saw her. She blushed as she got closer. 

"My prince." 

"My lady." He answered. 

"I wanted to thank you for last night... I hate that Lady wont get to join us south but it could have been a lot worse if you hadnt stepped in." Sansa added. 

"I'm glad I could help." Garrett agreed. 

"You and your brother are very different." Sansa added not wanting the conversation to end.

"Thats certainly true." garrett agreed. "Good luck with him." Sansa gave a choked smile. 

"What... I... could you show me around the castle when we get there?" Sansa questioned. 

"I would like that." garrett agreed. "Are you sure you dont want your betrothed showing you around?" 

"He's... no." Sansa admitted holding his gaze. Garrett chuckled. 

"Joffrey will be upset if he knows im playing with his toys." Garrett warned, Sansa didnt understand. "Joffrey isnt one for sharing even things he doesnt claim to like or people..." Garrett added cautiously. "While I would love to spend more time with you, i fear that joffrey's temper will be too much." he offered. "I can handle him but... I dont want him lashing out at you." 

"Is he a violent person?" 

"You saw him at the stream what do you think?" Garrett questioned. 

"The union is not sealed." Sansa offered. "I would like you to show me the castle." she added boldly. "Please." Garrett's smile grew. 

"I warned you."

"And I think you will protect me if your brother gets mad. I would rather us be together... showing me around." Sansa added. Garrett chuckled nodding. 

"Then it would be my honor. You are braver than I gave you credit for, Lady Sansa." Garrett admitted. 

"I'm full of surprises." 

"Oh? Do tell."

Make up something, sansa commanded. 

"I suppose you will have to wait and see." Sansa offered not thinking of anything on the spot. 

"Thats why they are surprises." Garrett agreed as his littlest brother called out for him.  "Excuse me, Tommen calls. " Sansa nodded as he headed off. 

"he's so good with his siblings." Arya remarked through a big bite of an apple. "you could learn from him." 

"Shut up!"
