Friend of Jaime Lannister

You were princess y/n of house Baratheon, sister to King Robert baratheon. Nothing was simple for you, nothing. Everything you did, every decision you made, it could all be your downfall. Yet somehow, you didn't care. You lived your life as if there was no evil in the world, pure in heart and body. During feasts, you would dance til your hearts content, sing for all to hear and laugh like there was no tomorrow.

You were sat with your niece myrcella, braiding her hair until jaime walked in

"Jaime, care to join us? Your hair may not be as long as the princesses but I'm sure we could still get a braid or two from it" you said as myrella giggled at the thought

"I'll have to pass on that one. Myrcella, would you give us a moment?" But you stood up and stopped myrcella from leaving the room

"Don't be ridiculous jaime. We can hardly kick her out of her own room. We shall leave if you wish to speak in private. I'll be back later sweetheart" you said kissing the princesses forehead before following jaime out of the room. Arms linked, you took a walk in the gardens

"Are we just gonna walk in silence or is there a reason you dragged me from the princess? I was having fun. I'd do anything to have a daughter like myrcella you know, you've done well with her" you smirked as he elbowed you in the ribs, hushing you. You had always got on with jaime since the moment you met him when he fought beside Robert. It didn't take you long to figure out his little secret

"I wanted to talk to you about something very important. Y/n, you are my best friend, as childish as it sounds. I don't want to see you get hurt. The men at court, they are all over you during the feast a few days ago. I know it is not my place, you can dance with whoever you like. But some of the comments I heard, well, safe to say, if it wasn't for my father holding me back then I surely would have cut their throats"

"Oh, what kind of comments?" You asked

"I think it better if we don't go into detail. Just promise me, you will be careful with them. Dance all you like, it makes everyone and yourself happy beyond words. But be cautious which men you trust. They seem kind to you now because they want you. And believe me, if they ever got you, they would act very differently"

You smiled at jaime and clasped his hand, looking into his eyes

"Jaime, I appreciate you concern, but you worry too much. Robert would never let me marry a man if that man was unkind"

"Oh y/n, I want to believe you, and I wish you were right. But the king would allow any man to marry you so long as he had titles, a small army and the promise that he would put a son in you" your smile fell, and you stepped away from jaime

"You're just trying to scare me. Like I've seen you do with tommen when you tell him those scary stories. Well I'm not a child. I know my brother far better than you. And it is none of your business who I do or do not marry"

"Y/n i-"

"Good day ser jaime" you yelled storming away from him, wiping the singular tear which had fallen. Truth is, you weren't angry at jaime for telling you. You were angry at yourself because deep down, you knew he was right. You just couldn't bring yourself to live that kind of a life. A life knowing that no man will ever out your needs before power and glory.

A week later, their was another feast. A party to celebrate your birthday. You hadn't spoken to jaime since the incident, only sent him harsh glares from across the room. You wished he would come and apologise but the man was too stubborn. So instead, he sent you glares back

"Your majesty, may I have your permission to dance with your dear sister, princess y/n?" A man asked the king as you sat by his side. Robert looked at you and your hopeful face, nodding with permission. And so you danced. Man after man, you danced and danced. After many men had danced with you, you went over to your eldest nephew

"Prince joffrey, would you like to dance?" You asked but he just scoffed, earning a scolding from his father

"Can I dance with you?" Tommen asked. You smiled at him, taking his hand and dancing with him. Myrcella soon joined in and the three of you were dancing away. Men kept their eyes on you, seeing the childish glint in your eyes as a sign of your innocence and naivety, something they could use to their advantage.

At the end of the night, people were retiring to their beds and some guests were leaving

"Shall I accompany you back to your bed? Don't want any of these grotty men following?" Your brother Renly asked. You smiled and kissed his cheek

"Thank you, but I'll be alright. Besides, I need to speak with Jaime first" he nodded, kissing your forehead before you walked over to jaime

"OK, before you storm off just bloody well listen to me. I'm very sorry for not listening to you. You were trying to protect me and I twisted your words. I'm sorry jaime. OK, now you apologise for your wrong doings" you demanded crossing your arms and raising an eyebrow as he chuckled

"Very well. I'm so incredible sorry that I interfered with your life. It was not my place yet I stuck my nose in either way. My apologies" you smiled, kissing his cheek as he kissed yours in a brotherly fashion before you decided to leave for bed.

Walking off, you were yawning on your way to your chambers. Perhaps they wouldn't be so lonely if you had children. But you had a big issue. You wanted children desperately. But you could not stand the thought of being married. Especially not after all the men you've seen prove to be wild buffoons who couldn't give a flying shit about you other than your tits and arse. Unfortunately, in this time, you could not have children without a marriage, unless you wanted them a bastard. You didn't think you could put someone through the hardships which come with that.

Lost in thought, you were suddenly yanked by the hair and pressed stomach first against the wall, as your face was squished across the cold bricks

You tried to squirm as the man holding you, used all his force to place your hands against the wall, kissing at your neck

"Please dont" he got his blade, putting it to your throat, almost drawing some blood so you didn't dare move

"If you are going to kill and rape me. Please do it in that order" you cried, still not seeing who the culprit was. You weren't sure if you wanted to know. His hand traced up your skirt, slowly reaching your thigh. And then it happened. All that weight pushed off you. Turning around, you saw a Knight on the floor with jaime punching him to his death

Jaime kept punching him as you watched, terrified about everything that had just happened. Jaime looked at you, suddenly realising how scared you must be. A few other men joined. Your brothers, Robert and renly, and ned stark.

"We'll deal with him. You make sure princess y/n gets to her chambers safely" Robert said, eyeing the man who almost raped you. Ned was helping you stand straight as your legs felt weak. He was like a brother to you, as you leant on him for support. Falling into jaimes arms, he carried you to your chambers. The moment you were in there, you burst into tears

"Sshh, its all over now. He can't hurt you" jaime told you, tucking your hair behind your ear

"I...I didn't do anything...I didn't say anything to him I promise" you cried and jaime just hugged you slowly

"I know. I know princess. Men like that, they don't need reasons. They do it because they are vile men. But he won't be around much longer. Just wish I was there to do the deed myself" he said

"I'm glad you aren't" you cried to him, leaning on his shoulders. With his support, you walked to your bed. Your lady in waiting came from her room and rushed over, seeing the state you were in

"I'll leave you to get ready. Goodnight y/n. We'll talk more in the morning. I understand if you can't sleep tonight. If you can't, I recommend tea and honey" jaime was about to leave when you yelled his name, making him turn around

"Thank you" he nodded, smiling at you sadly before leaving
