For the Cameras | Chaprer 9: Committing to the Part
a collaboration with @muttpeeta
To her surprise, Jon picked up on the second ring.
“You’re absolutely insane, do you know that?” Dany playfully scolded him as she looked around the living room, grinning like an idiot at the ridiculous amount of flowers that filled her flat. “Couldn’t you just send a bouquet like a normal bloke?”
Jon chuckled. “You should know by now I’m not a normal bloke, Princess.”
“You didn’t have to do all this.”
He hummed in disagreement. “And risk our fans thinking that I’m a shite boyfriend for not showing up at your show? Even though I can’t make it tonight, at least everyone will know how much I wish that I could be there.”
Oh. Right. The flowers weren’t actually for her. Dany tried to push down the prick of disappointment she felt at the reminder, embarrassed for her earlier excitement. “You realise you’ve just made the lives of all men on Planetos insanely difficult?” she said instead. “You’re setting a very high bar, Mr. Snow.”
“Good. I’d love to see any of them try to keep up.” Dany could hear his smug smirk in his voice.
“So,” she cleared her throat, moving closer to one of the arrangements to play with a rose. “You’re really not coming tonight.”
“It doesn't seem like it.”
“Of course. I completely understand.” Truth was, part of her had hoped that between Sunday and now, his schedule would have cleared, and he would be able to attend her silly show.
Jon sighed on the other end. “I know you're very eager for the real Jon Snow kiss. But don’t worry, Princess. I'll make it worth the wait.”
Read it on Ao3. Thank you!
