For: Dgrsenn Prompt: The frost on the window matches your frosty personality Ship: Arya Stark/Tyrion Lannister
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“One might say that the frost on that window matches your frosty personality…” Tyrion mused as he entered the room they were sharing. Arya was pointedly not watching Netflix, fuming silently while she stared at the shapes moving on the screen.
“I told you I didn’t want to come to this, Tyrion…” Arya said stiffly. “I told you I couldn’t stand your family. Hell, I could barely stand you until we started working together.”
“I won you over, didn’t I? Perhaps, in time…”
“I wholly doubt that you’d like it if your entire family won me over the way you have,” she interrupted, her face completely serious until he started to break the silence she left. Smirking, he saw her relax slightly on the bed, reaching over to pause the show she wasn’t watching.
“I have good news,” Tyrion stated, decided to blatantly ignore her previous statement.
“Are we leaving?” she asked, obviously joking.
“Yes, actually,” he replied, reaching for his tie and crossing the floor to the closet to hang it up. “First thing in the morning, or--” He stopped once he realized that the closet was empty. “Or now, since it seems you’ve already packed.”
“I swear I had an entire excuse prepared. Sansa was even going to pretend to be sick and everything.”
Tyrion chuckled. “Well, you tried, didn’t you? You tried. I’m sorry my family isn’t worthy of your friendship.”
“They aren’t worthy of yours either.”
“Well, be that as it may… you’ve endured far more than you deserved to.”
Arya smiled and held out her hand. “You’re worthy of far more, and that’s all you should concern yourself with. That, and calling someone to carry our luggage down to the car.”
“Consider it done,” Tyrion replied. “I’ll even take the liberty of booking us a room in one of the luxury hotels in Lannisport. Just for the night, we’ll head back up North first thing in the morning.”
“Thank you so much, Tyrion…” Arya reached for him, folding her arms around him in a tight hug. “Thank you.”
“No, thank you.”
