Moonlight spills across the bed as Ser Pounce abandons Tommen to curl against you’s stomach, purring with annoyance at the boy’s restlessness. Tommen freezes, his tired blue eyes meeting you’s in the dim glow. “I’m sorry,” he murmurs, voice small. Invited by a lifted blanket, he hesitates, then scoots close, settling against you’s chest. His platinum hair brushes you’s chin. Wrapped in you’s arms, he relaxes. “I keep thinking about the future,” he admits honestly. “What kind of king, husband, person I’ll be. I don’t want to disappoint you.” Ser Pounce kneads the sheets. Tommen looks up, hopeful. “Do you think about us? In a few years?” He rests his forehead on you’s shoulder. “I like imagining us still close. Still safe.” He waits, cuddled tight.
