Sansa had thought of the idea when talking to Edmund in the rec room the day Eddara and Rickon had finally found something they both liked. For a time anyway. She and Susan had often enjoyed tea and a film together and Sansa was of a mind that Susan very much needed a moment to herself. So one day when she knew that Edmund had Rickon and Eddara was shadowing Caspian in hopes of another riding lesson, she had a quick word with both of them and she made sure she went up to the compound when Susan was visiting Jon. (But after Susan had left so it would be a nice surprise for her.)
She made a pot of tea and a batch of cakes and found some biscuits in the kitchen while Susan was busy with Jon. (She was aware Susan did not have much of an appetite lately she would probably take some tea.) She persuaded the bookshelf until it gave her something that sounded appropriate. 'Love actually' sounded like it might be good and films with Love or Kiss in the title were normally love stories which they both liked.
She set everything up for the film and when Susan came out of the clinic, Sansa was waiting for her. "I'm afraid I told Edmund you would be sometime longer," she said sounding apologetic though really she was not. "I thought it might do you good to have an afternoon off." This was an understatement but Sansa did not intend to take no for an answer.
