Royce & Katherine

We walked into the family room where Ross had the kids "Thanks for keeping an eye on them, Ross."


"Sure, no problem." 
-Ross

"I think it's time to get you two munchkins in bed," I said and picked up Arya.

Katy

"I love you guys I'll see you later."

Ross

Royce and the kids said goodnight then he took them upstairs. "Thanks for coming by Ross. You should stop by in time for dinner sometime."

Katy

"Thanks, Katy. I'll do that sometime. Have a good night."

Ross

"You too." I hugged him and he left. I picked up downstairs before heading up. I peeked in on the kids then went to the bedroom to change.

Katy

I came out of the bathroom and the bedroom door was shut. I didn't want to barge in so I knocked first.

I just had a bra and panties on, what I always wore to bed, so I slippes my robe on and opened the door. "Hey."

Katy

"Hey." I said, feeling kind of nervous for some reason. "If you don't want me to sleep here, I'll hit the guest room."

"If I didn't want you here, I wouldn't have asked you to," I said and smiled a little at him. "I... don't really have any night clothes. I'm just in a... bra and panties. Will that... bother you? Or do you have a shirt I can borrow?"

Katy

"No, it won't bother me." At all. "Do you need some night clothes? We can get you some tomorrow."

"No, this is what I always where to bed. If I wear anything at all," I said and blushed a little. I walked over to the bed and dropped my robe. "Can you hit the light before you get in?" I asked as I laid down.

Katy

"Yeah, of course." I said and started to undress until I wore nothing but my boxers. I went over and shut the light off and then crawled into bed. "It feels good to lay down in my own bed."

Oh dear god... he looked good. "Yeah. This bed is probably the nicest I've ever been in. I'm sorry I lept you from it for so long."

Katy

"Don't worry about it. Staying at Dakota's wasn't that bad, she had liquor anytime I wanted it." 

"You were... staying at Dakota's? I thought you... had an apartment or something."

Katy

"Don't be upset about it. She's just a friend and so are the other girls."

"How good of a friend? Sorry, that's none of my business."

Katy

"I've never been that good of a friend. Besides, she's Tywin's favorite and even if he's never claimed her like he did Joy, I'm not taking chances." 

I nodded a little. "Okay," I said, wondering why that made me feel so relieved.

Katy

"Are you alright?"

Royce

"Yeah. Of course. I just..." I shook my head. "I don't know, never mind."

Katy

"What is it? You can tell me anything."

"I just... felt jealous when you said that. And I have no reason to. Not really."

Katy

I couldn't help but smile a little. "Sure you do. I'm your husband, I shouldn't be out sleeping around with anyone." 

"We haven't acted like husband and wife a single day in the last two years. We haven't even acted like friends."

Katy

"I still wouldn't disrespect you like though."

I smiled a little. "I appreciate that. I haven't either by the way. I haven't... slept with anyone."
