I shivered huddling in my little dress as all my other clothes were soaked thought from the rain I had removed them down to my underdress with a blanket that was only mildly damp in the bottom of my backpack, from the intense rains today, I went close to the fire trying to get warm everyone else was fast asleep even summer fast sleep by the fireside

"Y/n... you should be getting some sleep" I heard Bran say as he sat against the wall I looked at him too wrapped up warmly by the fire some of his millions of layers gone too

"So should you, why are you awake?" I ask

"I can't sleep, come on I haven’t done nearly as much as the rest of you, least I can do is keep a watch" he shrugs

“I suppose so”

"why are you still awake?" He asks

"Cold" I answer pulling my blanket closer to me he got up moving closer to me putting his hands on my blanket

"Your as cold as ice," he says tugging it away from me “It’s still wet, silly girl you’ll just make yourself sick” he says

I quickly crossed my arms to cover myself even if I caught his eyes on me "here, it's not to thick but at least it's dry" he says wrapping one of his fur blankets around my shoulders "y/n... You really need to get some sleep Little flower" he says “Go on get some rest, I’ll keep you safe don’t worry” he says he looked at me strangely a moment before giving my forehead a little kiss and I nodded and headed back to my little makeshift bed beside jojen, but he had already taken most of the bed and the blankets

"Bran?" I ask

"What is it?" He asks

"Would you mind...if I laid beside you tonight? You and Hodor still carry your things from Winterfell and all" I ask

“Or has jojen stolen all the bed again?”

“A little”

"Course...uhh here you can have my bed tonight," he says moving away from his bed

"Thank you" I smile

“I suppose it won’t be long till you two are married”

“I suppose not. My father insists. I can’t blame jojen, our fathers arranged it with nothing to do with us, I suppose I’ll be a reed soon. It's alright greywater seems nice and I’ll have Meera as a sister in law” I smiled

“Not all bad then, maybe jojen will mature a little see what a wonderful wife you're going to make him” he smiled

“I hope” I shrug, I knew it was a fool's hope, jojen wanted little to do with me since the moment our marriage was arranged he wasn’t exactly excited about marrying me, I made the best of it knowing I had little choice in the matter

“Here, I’ll help keep you warm” He smiled wrapping his arms around me to pull me closer to him

"your too sweet to me Bran" I smile "goodnight" I giggled giving his cheek a gentle kiss

"goodnight" he smiled pulling me closer unable to stop his smiles

"What are you so happy about?" I ask him cuddling closer to the blankets

"That I got a kiss from the beautiful little flower, that's more then jojen gets at bedtime" he blushed

“Well you're sweeter to me” I giggled

"I shall savour the kiss, from my sweet little flower, that I may I have loved for a very long time" he smiled “and was rather furious at her arrangement to the reeds instead of the starks”

“Ohh” I blushed

“I have long loved you my little flower, it torchers me to see his disinterest in you. If you were mine. I’d worship you you are the most beautiful girl in westeros and I wish things could be different, I’d have adored to have you as my bride”

“You would?”

“I would. Still I’ll have to just… savour our kisses and snuggles” he smiled giving me another little kiss

“Thats sweet Bran, but I’m engaged, come on lets get some rest”

“You rest, I’ll stay up a little more”

“Alright, can I get a little closer?” I asked moving closer to his warm body

"how close do you want me to be?" He chuckled and I just tugged him closer to me so not an inch was between us “Alright, if that’s what my little flower wants” he smirked a little slipping off his small cotton shirt and laying down next to me so close his nose was against mine our bodies close together so much I snuggled into his body heat nuzzling my head closer to him cuddling him tightly he gently wrapped his arms around me his hands on the small of my back as he smiled at me

"hello" I giggled

"Hello" he blushed "Would perhaps you allow me to kiss you again?" He asked

"Well…. alright, you can kiss me as much as you like Bran" I giggled "so long as they're all asleep, so we don’t get in trouble" I smirk

"We should keep quiet then" he smirked moving closer and kissing me I melted into his soft lips as our grips tighten on each other till I moved back letting us both take a breath and snuggly into his bare skin he pulled me tight keeping me warm “Your kisses are perfect. I wish I could kiss you forever” he whispered in a hushed pillow talk like tone I giggled a little at his whispered words as he began kissing my neck and bitting starting to suck making a hiki on my skin "uhhh..uhh!" I gasped in shock at both what he was doing and at my enjoyment of it "Brandon..stop it what if someone saw that mark, what if jojen saw it" I argued

"I'm sure you could make a excuse for it my little flower, a bruise perhaps, or maybe just let his mind wonder to what we may have done int he dark of night, so he’ll call off your marriage so you’d be free as a bird to marry me” he smiled

“Bran come on, we need to rest”
