Chapter 2

The sound of high girlish laughter filled the apartment; little Nymeria enjoying herself.

Arya grinned at the sound. 'And why shouldn't she...Honestly, I don't think there's anybody in the family...Except for one maybe, who dislike her.'

She settled back on the sofa, still grinning and leaned a little closer into Gendry who was seated by her side. He also grinned and put his arm around her, kissing her temple. Normally she'd react, that sort of thing was for silly couples who had to be all over each other. But right now, she was too comfy, and in too much of a good mood.

"Nymeria really loves her grandparents." Gendry whispered to her, eyes dancing.

She laughed softly. "Of course she does, they absolutely adore her."

She turned her gaze to her daughter, currently in Grandma Catelyn's lap. Arya's parents had come by to see how she and Gendry were doing and were wasting no time doting over their granddaughter.

As she watched, Arya felt a little wistful. 'Mom and dad weren't the happiest when Gendry and I started dating. They weren't exactly, against us but...Then I got pregnant, things got messy...'

She shook her head and heard Gendry.

"What matters is the present Arry, remember."

She agreed; he knew what she had been thinking, he understood her like no one else; got in past her walls and loved her for the person she was and Nymeria completed it for them, almost.

Watching as Ned and Cat continued to dote over Nymeria, Arya knew her daughter had been instrumental in repairing that gap; she so easily had her grandparents wrapped around her little fingers and didn't even known it.

"I think we should wait a couple of years Gendry, but..." She began, getting his attention.

He turned to her, confused. "Arry?"

With a sly grin she asked. "Think we could...maybe try for a boy next time and no, I won't be mad if we have another girl?"

He gaped at her but then grinned himself and kissed her, that was all the confirmation she needed.

End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
