A/N: Takes place some years in the future, when the Starks have retaken Winterfell.
Arya is quick to notice the look in Gendry’s eyes as they lie on his bed in Winterfell’s forge. She sighs as she stares at him, allowing him to see the irritation in hers.
“Something the matter, my lady?” he asks, his voice full of biting sarcasm.
“You’re doing it again,” Arya accuses. “You’re feeling guilty about us when there is absolutely no cause.”
