Things I Wish You Said / Gregor Clegane / Vaera Targaryen

35. Targaryen

1 year later

Vaera loved being a wife and now a mother. After they left the capital, the news of Joffrey's murder broke and Olenna Tyrell was arrested. Gregor didnt know how Tywin managed that but hell he didnt care.

vaera wasnt happy about that but preferred the old woman to her husband.

Cersei was a mess, a murderous mess and Tyrion was cackling deciding how the old woman bashed joffrey's head in.

Oberyn questioned often where the mountain ran off to but Tywin said to drop his petty grievances. He would only end up dead.

Gregor doted on vaera endlessly and -- although jaime kept pushing unions and duties that he promised — tywin named vaera and Gregors firstborn son heir to casterly rock. Vaera reminded him that she had been having dreams of a little girl but tywin believed every childs first born should be male so he could protect the little sister. Vaera reminded him life doesnt work that way just because you want it to.

But either way gregor was acting lord of casterly rock. He didnt go to meetings unless there was someone that needed reprimanding and he spent every night wrapped around vaera.

She loved being home and free to kiss gregor whenever she found his lips. She didnt have to hide her love she got to embrace it.

Although gregor still got flustered for his words at times and speak how he felt. She never had to wonder about all the things she wished he said because he showed her how he felt every day. With his touch with his kiss with his kindness and ever doting compassion towards their growing child in her stomach.

When little Helaena was born gregor cherished her. She was the littlest thing he ever held and he worried he might squish her. So gregor held vaera holding Helaena.

Vaera traced a finger up and down helaenas little frame as she slept soundly against her chest. Vaera saw helaena in her dreams but shendidnt know if her mind was concocting an image or not. Because she desperately wanted to see her daughter. Wanted to look into her eyes and see the life she and gregor had made.

When helaena woke she gave a big yawn before slapping her little lips. Vaera got to used undressing for gregor and asking 'are we alone yet' gregor started undressing her so save her from asking most days. Gregor smiled kissing along her neck as helaena found her target.

"I dont think i like sharing." Gregor admitted.

"You hate sharing." Vaera agreed.

"I meant with Helaena." Gregor counterer. Vaera smiled running a hand over their daughters very soft very blonde head. Helaena pulled back and gregor took his time fondling her breasts before helping her fix her dress.

"Ummm," gregor mumbled.

"Whats wrong?" Vaera countered confusion and worry filled her.

"Vaera..."

"What?"

"Nothing its just-"

"Gregor speak!"

"Looks just like you." Gregor whispered. "But... her eyes..."

"You think I passed on my blindness?" Vaera countered touching her daughters little toes. She didnt want this curse passed down. She wanted her daughter to be able to see all the life and love the world had to offer.

"She has Violet eyes." Gregor corrected.

"What?" Vaera countered.

"Violet, purple, you want me to describe things, I'm describing it. Our daughter- did someone-"

"Only you Gregor." Vaera assured.

"Who the fuck was your mother?"

"I think its time I had that talk with my father." Vaera agreed. "But does it really matter? All of them are dead. All the... dragons."

"You could be the last one." Gregor remarked.

"Not the last." Vaera smiled down at her baby girl. Gregor kissed her temple and chuckled, it vibrated against her.

"Vaera Rose Targaryen..."

"No. I'm a Clegane."
