Excitement welled up in Arya’s belly and spread to her heart as she stood at the Starboard Bow of a ship, beginning its voyage. For better or for worse, she would finally find out for herself and see with her own eyes what lies West of Westeros.
As they gained speed, she couldn’t fight the smile spreading across her face as the crisp air blew against her.
Her smile grew wider as she felt Gendry’s arms wrap around her waist, pulling her back against him. She leaned back and tilted her head up to look at him, smiling down at her.
“Thanks for the ride.” Arya said.
“Being a Lord finally paid off.” Gendry spoke into her ear to be heard over the roar of the ship.
“Are you scared?”
“No” Gendry smiled, “as long as I don’t have to do any rowing, we should be fine.” Arya looked confused and Gendry laughed, “I’ll tell you later.”
They kissed softly as nothing but vast sea lay before them. Nothing but the unknown awaited them in their future which they would happily be discovering together.
