In the days following the 'accident', (YN) made quite a rapid recovery, Bran had thankfully survived through the first night, however after quite a number of days he was still yet to wake. Lady Catelyn sat a constant vigil beside his bed and thought about little else, while Lord Eddard was kept busy organising his impending departure for King's Landing.
Jon was sleeping a little easier now that he saw (YN) was back to her usual self, although he noticed how her expression changed ever so subtly, whenever someone spoke of Bran. It made him want to reach out and take her by her arms and assure her that she had nothing to feel guilty about, tell her that Bran was alive because of her, but it was not his place. Besides, Robb had seldom left her side and he seemed to know exactly how to cheer her up, whenever she got a little upset, 'he really is going to make her a wonderful, loving husband'. As he stood there staring blankly at his modest belongings packed neatly on his bed, he thought about the night he had spent with Robb watching over (YN) when she was injured. Some of the night, she slept soundly and even in her impaired and bandaged state, she looked so beautiful and peaceful that Jon found himself memorising her sleeping features. Other times she would wake and Robb would carefully prop her up on some pillows and they would share stories about nothing in particular, purposely avoiding the day's events in fear of causing her more upset. Then there were the other times, the times that caused an ache in his chest, the moments when (YN) would begin to murmur and toss and turn and then wake up screaming. It was a sight he never wanted to see again and one he prayed he would forget. Robb was wonderful though, gently whispering in her ear that it was just a horrible dream and she was safe there in his arms. Jon wanted to imagine that it was him, he wanted to be the one to make her feel safe, the one to whisper in her ear, but it would never be. At least he would leave Winterfell today, knowing she would be well loved, just as she deserves.
Despite this, Jon still held concerns for her and Bran's safety, along with Robb, Eddard, Catelyn and of course, Maester Luwin. No one else knew of the truth, (YN) asked that her parents not be told, she didn't want to cause them any worry. Unfortunately though, there wasn't much anyone could do, other than make sure (YN) and Bran were not left alone. They couldn't even have a guard to watch over them for fear of causing suspicion. They had however, noticed that Cersei seemed overly concerned with Bran's condition, wanting to know whether he showed any signs of waking and in subtle ways inquired on (YN)'s recollection of the, in Cersei's words, "terrible tragedy". Exactly how she was involved remained a mystery, they could only conclude that Bran saw something in the broken tower which was not meant for his eyes. Jon was thankful though that his departure coincided with his father and sisters', meaning that the King and his entourage would be leaving also. Hopefully, this meant that any danger (YN) and Bran may be in, would diminish.
