âAfter you,â Jon said, holding the hotel door open for Daenerys. With a prim âthank you,â she ducked under his arm, hauling her enormous suitcase in behind her. Smiling, he rolled his eyes and then nodded farewell to Tormund and Grenn, who were staying in the room across from them. He adjusted her backpack on his shoulder as he slipped into the room behind her, his own (much more reasonably sized) weekender bag in hand. Daenerys glanced around the room in admiration. âOh, wow! This isâoh.â Nearly colliding with her when she came to a dead-stop, he grabbed her shoulder to prevent a collision. âWhat? Whatâs wrong?â he asked, sweeping his gaze around the room in mild apprehension. âNothing, I justâI didnât realise it was only going to be one bed,â she said. Jon followed her line of sight to the large king bed that took up one wall of the room; off to the side was a sitting area with a couple chairs and a small couch. On the opposite wall was the door that led to the en suite bathroom. âRight,â he said slowly. Heâd not really considered it either. âThese things are booked well in advance, and I didnât know youâd be coming with me then. But Iâm sure they figuredââ He cleared his throat. âWell, it didnât much change anything in their minds, you know?â Blushing, she laughed sheepishly. âYes, of course. That was silly of me. I justâŚ.hm. Yeah. OK. This is fine.â It sounded like she was trying to convince herself. Was she afraid he was going to maul her in her sleep? He liked to think he had more control than that. With a reassuring squeeze, he made himself let go of her shoulder. âI can sleep on the couch, if it makes you feel better.â As he said it, he eyeballed the couch and immediately regretted making the noble gesture. It looked half his height. But she shook her head. âNo, noâitâs fine, really. Thatâs a pretty big bed. We could probably fit two more people on that thing and neverâŚum, touch.â
