One of these days he’s gonna kill her himself, he swears.
If she didn’t give him a fucking stroke and kill him first.
His foot won’t stop tapping against the balcony floor and his heart still feels kinda, completely fucked, and he can’t hear a thing they’re saying inside no matter how hard he tries. His knuckles hurt.
Maybe later he’ll think about how fucking embarrassing he’s being, but really right now he can’t because his mind is too preoccupied being worried about Sansa Stark for the twelfth time that week.
Sansa Stark and her heroics and her recklessness and her sharp smile. The girl we was pretty sure he hated, but now kinda thinks he never could. The one inside that motel room right now talking to some government agent that just tried to kidnap her.
So fuck him for being a little concerned, right?
He thinks about the way his heart dropped out of his ass, when he heard her on the phone, when he thought she was in danger. The way it turned into this protective anger he didn’t even know he could feel much less feel for Sansa Stark.
He flexes his wrist. He kinda wished he’d hit the guy one more time, just because.
He turns when she walks out and he has a compulsive need to swallow. She makes him a little nervous, god knows why.
She stands in front of him and she just looks at him and he’s waiting for her to yell at him, but she’s not. She’s just watching him and she doesn’t even look angry and god she’s the most beautiful thing he’s ever seen. How had he never realized that before?
Of course she was pretty, it was Sansa, everyone knew she was fucking pretty, he’d just never realized she was so…
“That was stupid,” she says it like a fact because, well, it is. Maybe she made him stupid.
“You’re welcome.” Yeah, thanks for the stroke. Let’s do this again sometime.
“Thank you,” she sighs, and of all the things he had expected her to say that was… not even on the list. She didn’t thank him, she was always irritated with him. Right?
Gimme a reason to go kick that guy’s ass and I fucking will.
She nods, silent, and when has Sansa Stark ever been silent around him. He really wants her to say something. But she doesn’t.
He thinks maybe he should go, and then she’s kissing him.
He’s so shocked, he’s so in awe, at what’s happening he can’t even fucking move. There’s just her soft mouth on his and then it’s over. She pulls back too soon and he’s not sue what just happened.
She’s looking at him, and she looks confused and she looks scared and no he doesn’t want her to be scared. Her eyes so blue and so sweet he wants to fucking drown in them.
He forgets every single word in the English language.
She’s blinks and gives him a funny smile and then she’s turning to go. But he doesn’t want her to go and she can’t go and he can move again. He grabs her arm and turns her back and then he’s the one kissing her.
He never realized how much he really wanted to kiss Sansa Stark, until he needs to kiss Sansa Stark.
She’s the sweetest thing he’s ever tasted and he pulls her as close as he possibly can. He wants every part of her. He wants to hold her and he never wants to let go and he can’t even think about how stupid or how out of place that sounds because there’s just her.
It feels like finally and maybe the best thing to ever happen to him.
She’s Sansa, and yeah she’s a pain in his ass, and yeah he thought he couldn’t stand her, but he’s kissing her and he remembers how perfect she is. It feels like a dream. It feels like the weirdest most surreal fucking dream of his life.
Her lips are gone and the warm fuzzy feelings in his head feel out of place and he still has no idea what just happened.
They look at each other and their hands fall away and neither of them says a word. He’s afraid if he says anything he’ll just fuck it up more and, god, does he not want to do that.
She steps away and she walks down the stairs and he watches her go. He watches her the whole way. She gets to her shitty little car and looks at him and he’s not sure what it means.
He hopes it means something. But she just looks at him and why can’t either of them fucking say anything?
She drives away, and he’s still standing there and he can still feel the way her mouth felt against his. And he’s pretty sure he wants to feel it again and it doesn’t feel weird anymore.
He’s totally fucking gone for Sansa Stark.
Robb would have killed him.
