Title: Together Rating: PG Length: 212 Competitor: Owen Summary: Jon and Thayet talk about squires
::::
King Jonathan walked into his bed chambers and collapsed onto the bed next to his wife. “I’m so tired,” he mumbled into the silk bedding.
Thayet came over and began to rub her husband’s shoulders. “Just one more squire left, Jon, and then you’re done with knighting for this year,” she reminded him.
“Thanks, dear.” He groaned as he sat up to face his wife. “Who goes into the Chamber tomorrow?”
“Keladry of Mindelan.”
“Ah yes, the lady squire. She’ll have the biggest crowd yet.” Slight confusion crossed the monarch’s face. “But what of the squire that is always with her? The one with curly hair? I rarely see him without her.”
The queen thought for a moment before speaking. “The squire that’s always with her...Oh, you mean Owen of Jesslaw. He’s a year younger than her. But you’re right, I always do see her with him. She must be his closest friend.”
“Interesting,” Jon said, “But I suppose it’s just like Alanna was- she always was with Gary, Raoul and me.” He reached across the gap for his wife and kissed her warmly. “It’s time for bed. I could fall asleep right now.” They climbed under the sheets, and Jon stayed true to his words- he was asleep within the minute.
