A Small Piece I wrote
It had been more than a couple of years into their marriage. Jaehaera had given birth to their third child, a girl that she named Daena. "Do you love me?" Jaehaera had asked him. This caught him off guard. Whatever he had been thinking of was long gone. “What?” He said like a fool. “We’ve been married now for ten and two years. I’ve already given you two sons, your future heirs. Yet, you still accompany me wherever I go, you still invite me to your small council meetings, you still choose to eat with me, and you still choose to visit me…in the night.” A soft blushing crept onto his face. “Yes. I do.” “Why?” Aegon stared at his wife. He assumed it was obvious. Viserys was right, he was terrible with emotions. “Do you love me?” “I do.” He nodded. Jaehaera watched him, he couldn't tell what she was thinking. Her pale eyes observed him with thin lips, not curved neither upward nor downward. Her face was neutral in every sense of the word. “Oh.” Was all she said. Aegon stood there. Waiting. A minute of silence went by. “Is that it?” He inquired. “You wanted to know if I loved you? But you haven't said how you feel. Do you love me?” Her eyes widened slightly. Clearly, she wasn’t expecting the question. She opened her soft lips. “I do.” “When did you realize it?” He felt like a child asking but then again they were both children when they married. “Years ago. And you?” For a moment he allowed himself to smile. “Years ago.” He lowered his eyes in shame. “Why did we allow ourselves to live without ever speaking of these things? We are husband and wife after all.” Jaehaera took his hands in hers. “Because you and I are not like others. We don’t need to speak to understand each other, we love each other in silence. Our love doesn’t have to be a great song of passion and fury. We can have our quiet, gentle love all to ourselves. That’s how I prefer it anyway.” Aegon intertwined their fingers as he leaned in and kissed his Queen.
She would 100% ask him if he would still love her if she was a worm. Also, I wrote this at 1 AM
Aegon the Third when he thinks about Jaehaera:
Aegon the Third and Jaehaera Headcanons
🚩Some Angst🚩
Nothing happened on their wedding night. Aegon cried after everything that happened and Jaehaera stared blankly off into space
When they found out Jaehaera was with child she was fine and relatively unsurprised, he was terrified (pacing, nausea, hyperventilating, "will I be a good father????", etc)
Aegon cried tears of joy when he was handed his first child, Daeron, and Jaehaera smiled for the first time in years
Many are confused by their relationship as it is known that Aegon visits Jaehaera often but in public, they are very distant, this is just because neither likes public affection
Whenever their children have nightmares, they sleep in bed with Aegon and Jaehaera
Aegon knows when Jaehaera is upset because she "shuts down" and disassociates. He is one of the few who can tell and tries to bring her back by gently reminding her where they are
Similarly, Jaehaera is one of the few who can calm down Aegon when he has panic attacks. She always takes him away from others because of how he must be seen as a strong king. Her husband is left frustrated by these episodes but she reminds him that he's still just a man who mourns like everyone else
Aegon and Jaehaera very rarely talk about the war and what happened to them during that time. However, they are open with each other about what happened in that period. Aegon knows about her fear of ratcatchers, and Jaehaera knows about his fear of dragons. They both support the other and never cast blame
Aegon and Jaehaera frequent the weirwood in the Red Keep whenever they want to spend time together alone, additionally, they go to the Kingswood but they bring their children along on these particular trips
Aegon ordered that Jaehaera be made silver and golden hair accessories that look like butterflies because she is fond of them
Jaehaera likes to read beside Aegon even if he is not reading with her, she enjoys going into his office and sitting beside him with her book while he reads matters of the realm
Aegon loves Jaehaera's laugh and because of how rare it is, he savors hearing it
Jaehaera tends to reach out to Aegon with her hands more than words and her finger often wanders to intertwine with his
Aegon and Jaehaera realized they loved each other in different ways. Aegon realized it after he noticed Jaehaera did small things for him and eventually began to feel his heart beating faster around her. Jaehaera realized it when Aegon would spend hours of his time with her even when she never spoke and eventually wanted to go out of her way to be around him.
Night Talks
Angst and Spoilers for HOTD/Fire & Blood
The Kingswood gleamed under the moonlight. She could hear the gentle crickets in their nighttime ballad across the grass. The cool breeze passed by her bare feet as she trudged forward. She found him quickly enough. He sat beside a tree in front of the creak. Jaehaera was going to ask him about his odd midnight journey until she saw his shoulders shaking. A sound came out of his throat. It was deep and strangled. She said nothing. Instead grabbing onto one of the low-hanging tree branches, she set herself down beside him. He noticed her then. “Jaehaera.” He wiped his face. “I’m sorry did I wake you?” She shook her head. He sniffed, trying to pull himself together. “I’m sorry, you shouldn't see me like this. I’ll walk you back to the Keep.” “Aegon…” “Here let me help you.” “Aegon.” “Come on let me help you”, he insisted. Jaehaera stared at him. “Egg. Egg look at me.” Reluctantly he lifted his eyes. The usual violets had clear tears swimming in them. “You shouldn’t see me like this”, he whispered. “A king shouldn’t cry.” She reached out her hand, a silent invitation. He took it. “I just needed to be alone. It was becoming too much inside there.” “What happened?” She asked softly. The tears threatened to fall. “I had a nightmare. I remembered her…and what happened that day.” His free hand gripped his own hair. “It felt like I was a child again just standing there useless and helpless as I watched her burn. I couldn't breathe, I felt like I was dying by being in those walls where so much pain happened. I didn't want you to see me. I didn't want you to worry, especially with the baby.” Jaehaera rubbed her stomach. A small lump formed in her throat. “You worry me more by disappearing. I would understand, Egg.” “No.” He shook his head. “I couldn’t do anything. She died because I couldn't do anything.” Jaehaera tilted her head. “In that case, could I have saved my brother? If I had tried could I have stopped those men from killing Jaehaerys?” Aegon’s eyes widened at her. “No, Jaehaera, you shouldn't say that.” “I was a child, as were you. What could we have done? We were both left alone because of a terrible war. Something neither of us could have stopped. It was already left in the hands of the fates before we were even born.” Aegon sat beside her, his gaze was on the creak. “Then why can't I move on? I’m one of the last that was left alive yet I’m still as pathetic as I was then.” Jaehaera rubbed his hand with her thumb. “You are a good king but you are still just a man. A man who has a heart. I’m glad that the war didn’t take that away from you. We both know what it is like to be left broken. Mourn Egg. You are safe to mourn in front of me.” Aegon leaned against her. He wrapped his arms around her waist, careful to not put pressure on the child in her belly. She ran her fingers through his hair. They stayed there for a while.

Words: 5,262
A/N: This is high-key written like a sitcom and is Jace-centric (since he's Teddy in this fic), also muña means mother in High Valyrian
The house was mostly quiet for once. The only sound came from the TV, a humming signaled the beginning of the theme song. Rhaenyra turned up the volume enthusiastically. She glanced down at her bowl of strawberry ice and frowned. Taking the whipped cream topping in hand she added more until it was a mountain that buried the ice cream, only then was she satisfied. She took a spoonful and smiled.
Rhaenyra never felt fully comfortable when she was in her final trimester of pregnancy even when she had done it several times. However, to her, the best thing about being pregnant was that she could eat anything without her wife bringing up how “unhealthy” it was. She could say it was cravings and her wife moved on.
The screen lit up with the colors of her favorite fantasy series. Without hesitation, she took another spoonful. A sharp pain came from her abdomen.
“Ow”, she huffed. Her eyes went to her stomach. “All your brothers were easy, why aren’t you?”
She swallowed the ice cream and turned back to her TV. Her favorite family drama show was on. She had yet to catch up to the current season like her son had but with the rest of the kids out of the house, she could watch her show without having to worry about them walking into the awkward parts.
Another pain came from her abdomen. She gripped the remote tightly. She winced. Slowly, Rhaenyra turned off the TV and put down her plate. She could barely adjust to sitting on her own couch. Every time she would end up rolling. Gods she forgot how much she hated this feeling.
“Alicent”, Rhaenyra called.
The sound of boots clicking in the kitchen got her attention and before long, her wife walked into the living room.
“What is it?” Alicent asked.
“I’m going into labor”, Rhaenyra sighed.
Alicent’s eyes popped open. “What?! But you’re not due yet!”
“Well take that up with him.” Rhaenyra gestured at her stomach. “Unfortunately, I’m running on his time, not the doctor’s or mine apparently.”
Alicent scanned the couch for her purse. “Okay, okay”, panic edged in her voice. “A bit of a hiccup but it's fine.”
Alicent grabbed the purse which was thrown lazily on the floor. “Okay, I have our stuff here. Do you want me to bring you a robe and slippers?”
Rhaenyra bit in inside of her cheek as another round of pain resurfaced. “We don’t have time for that, my love.”
Alicent helped Rhaenyra to her feet. Rhaenyra threw on her sweater and casually walked toward the door with an anxious Alicent behind her.
Rhaenyra looked over her shoulder and then smirked. “Ready for baby number eight?”
Alicent was practically shaking. “Gods no, but let’s do this.”
—---------------------------
Jace wanted to throw his controller on the couch. He had lost another video game match with Cregan. His best friend was smiling but he was not. How after so many times playing had he not improved at all? He thought at least with the new combo he had, he thought he could get one victory over Cregan but nothing.
He rolled his eyes at the TV. “This is rigged.”
Cregan threw back his head and laughed. “Keep telling yourself that.”
“This is your game and console. I wouldn’t be surprised if you had done something.”
“I only play games, Jace, I’m not a tech wizard that’s your brother.”
“I bet he did help you.”
A ring broke through the conversation. Cregan picked up his phone but saw his screen was pitch black.
“Jace, I think it’s yours.”
Jace shuffled through his pocket and pulled out his phone. The word ‘Mom’ lit up the phone. He answered.
His face scrunched a bit in confusion. “Mom, what’s up?”
“Um”, he could hear the nervousness in his mom’s voice. “Your mother went into labor early.”
Jace sat up on the couch. “But I thought the baby wasn’t coming for a least like two weeks. Is Muña okay?”
“Yes. Yes. Your mother is okay.”
A scream came from the background. “Alicent, can you drive any fucking slower?!”
“I’m talking to Jace”, his mom said.
“Watch the road!”, his muña yelled.
“I’m trying to”, his mom responded in the calmest voice she could muster.
“You’re on your way to the hospital, right?” Jace asked.
“Yes, we are. Jace, I’m so sorry to ask this but can you please bring your siblings here? I can’t leave your mother alone.”
Jace nodded. “Yeah, of course. I’ll get bring them over as soon as possible.”
“Thank you, darling,” his mom said. With that, she hung up.
Jace had wanted to record a film from their short film, but it seemed that would have to wait. He turned toward his friend. “Cregan, I need to borrow your car, it’s for an emergency.”
Cregan sat up. “I heard everything your mom was screaming, let’s go.”
“Believe it or not that’s her calm.”
Cregan threw the car keys at Jace, who caught them with one hand. They got into the car and Jace turned on the engine. He glanced between himself and his friend at their uniforms, it was for their film, but he didn’t have time to change. Whatever.
“Do you know where you’re going?” Cregan asked.
Jace nodded. “Yup, theater rehearsal.”
The younger teen was practically speeding until they got to the parking lot of their local high school. It was a weekend so few cars were in the lot when Jace pulled into an empty space. He turned off the car and ran toward the auditorium, with Cregan close behind. The two opened the doors to the building. Inside were other teenagers dressed in costumes reading over a script. Jace scanned the group assembled.
“See 'em?” Cregan asked.
“No.”
Jace opened the doors to the stage. On top of the stage, he saw a couple rehearsing some overly dramatic monologue while staring into each other’s eyes. Behind them was a group of teenagers dressed as fairies with cheap plastic wings. In the corner of the stage, she saw a girl with light hair dressed as a tree.
“Helaena,” Jace called out.
The couple stopped monologuing. The guy looked annoyed. “I thought we locked that door.”
Jace smiled awkwardly. “Sorry to interrupt, family emergency.”
Helaena in her tree costume made her way down to the stairs. The closer she got the more Jace was struggling to not laugh at his sister’s odd costume. She looked as if she could barely move with her arms stuck at her sides where the trunk of the tree was.
“Jace, I’m at rehearsal”, Helaena reprimanded softly.
“I know. I know but it’s muña. She went into labor.”
Helaena’s eyes widened. “But I thought she wasn’t due yet.”
“She isn’t but the baby calling the shots here.”
Helaena nodded. “Okay, let me get out of this stupid costume. They can find another tree in the meantime.”
Jace helped Helaena unzip the back and she tossed off the tree costume. Underneath her costume though was a camo jumpsuit, supposedly to match the tree. Jace didn’t bother to bring this up. They raced back to the car. Jace jumped into the driver’s seat but found that Cregan was no longer in his passenger’s seat. The rearview mirror showed he was now in the backseat with his sister. Jace shook his head.
“Hel, do you know where everything else is?”
“Aegon and Daeron are at Ben Blackwood’s party”, Helaena admitted.
“Ben Blackwood is having a party today?” Jace asked.
“Yes, they didn’t want to tell mom and muña. You have to keep it a secret”, Helaena demanded.
“Fine. Fine.” Jace then groaned. “Crap. How are we going to find his house?”
Cregan leaned close to Jace. “He lives in Ravenhall.”
“How do you know that?” Jace inquired.
Cregan glanced to see if Helaena wasn’t paying attention. “I used to date his sister, Aly.”
Jace’s face scrunched together. “You’ve never brought this up.”
“It was a long time ago.”
Jace sighed then started the car and pulled out of the parking space. As he began driving, he saw Cregan lean closer to Helaena in the rearview mirror.
Cregan swallowed nervously. “So, are you a big theater person?”
“I like it, so I guess.”
“Cool. Um, what play were you doing?”
“A Midsummer Night’s Dream”, Helaena replied.
“Oh really? My teacher made me read that book for literature. It’s got a lot of freaky magic and stuff.”
Helaena smiled. “I know, right? I think that’s why I like it so much; it stands out from Shakespeare’s other work.”
Cregan smiled. “Yeah, it's awesome.”
Jace wished he could be anywhere else than inside this car and being forced to live through this conversation.
The neighborhood of Ravenhall was luckily close to where the school was. The security guard at the gate was nice and let them in once Jace said they were going to the Blackwood’s. The man asked if they were Brackens and Jace said no. He was confused about what was going on between the Brackens and Blackwoods but that was not the main objective. As Jace got closer to the house, he could see cars surrounding the house. The music from the backyard was playing loud enough that he could hear it from the front.
“You’d think for a house party, they’d be more lowkey about it.”
Helaena pointed at the fence, suddenly. “Look the gate is open.”
Jace nodded. “Come on let’s these two.”
The three of them slipped through the half-closed gate. When Helaena told him it was a party, Jace had not expected this. There was a bounce house beside the pool where children around the age of ten were playing. A clown was face painting a little kid, while another clown made balloon animals. A pile of presents was in the corner next to a large table with an ocean cake. A banner above spelled out ‘Happy Birthday Sam!’ in big blue bubble letters.
Jace stared at the scene before him. “Cregan?”
“Yeah?”
“This is the Blackwood house, right?”
“I swear it is.”
“Helaena?” Jace asked.
“I swear they said they were going to Ben Blackwood’s party”, Helaena replied.
“This is a kid’s party”, Jace pointed out.
“Um, Jace.” Cregan nudged his rib.
Jace turned and saw Aegon and Daeron sitting in beach chairs beside the pool. Their legs were sprawled out as they laid back on the chairs, juices in hand. Without a word, Jace walked over to them. His older brother, Aegon was quick to notice him.
“Hey, you were invited too?” Aegon asked.
Jace looked down at his two brothers. Both of them were wearing Hawaiian shirts with cargo pants and straw hats. Their accessories consisted of flip-flops, sunglasses, and a capri-sun in hand. Aegon even had sunscreen on his nose.
Jace sighed. “I don’t have the time to ask you why right, just know you need to come with us.”
“They’re cutting the cake soon, though”, Aegon complained.
“Muña’s having the baby”, Jace said.
Aegon sat up. “Wait, how?”
“I’ll explain in the car.”
The group hastily left through the open gate and shuffled back into Cregan’s car. Jace started the ignition and then turned back to the backseat.
“Okay, where’s Aemond?”
“At a friend’s house”, Daeron mentioned.
“Can you be more specific?” Jace asked.
“That girl he hangs out with, Alys Rivers,” Daeron added.
“Alright we need to hurry, mom and muña should have gotten to the hospital by now.” Jace began speeding down the road. His eyes occasionally went back to the mirror. He caught a look at Aegon and Daeron’s clothing again.
Jace cleared his throat. “So, are you guys going to explain why you were at a ten-year-old’s birthday party?”
Daeron chuckled while looking at Aegon. “This should be good. Go on tell him.”
Aegon buried his face behind his hands. “So, I heard a rumor that Ben Blackwood was going to have a party this weekend and Blackwood is one of the most popular guys at school…”
Jace asked. “And?”
“When we were in class, I commented that it sounded cool and that I could help out. He invited me and told me to bring my little brother so he could have fun too. I brought Daeron with me to the Hawaiian pool party he told me about. Turns out it's a party for his little brother, Samwell and when he told me to bring my little brother, he meant to bring Joffrey 'cause they go to the same school.”
Jace bit his hand to hold back a laugh. Unfortunately, a snort escaped.
Aegon rolled his eyes. “Yeah. Yeah. Real funny. Laugh it up.”
Daeron suddenly stood up from his seat. “Wait Jace, that’s her neighborhood, you’re passing by it!”
“Shit!” Jace gripped the wheel and abruptly turned it without warning.
Daeron who was standing, hit his head against the roof of the car. Aegon crashed into Daeron’s chest and then Helaena fell against Cregan. He immediately heard sounds of pain form the backseat. Jace was sure whatever he pulled was illegal, but he frankly didn’t care. However, he didn’t hear the end of it from his siblings until they arrived at the front door of Alys’ apartment.
Jace knocked on the front door, impatiently.
The person who answered was just as irritated as him. A guy wearing a long green cloak and riding boots glared at him. “What do you want?”
“Is Aemond here?” Jace almost growled.
The guy sneered. “We’re in the middle of something.”
Cregan stepped in front of Jace. “Let me handle this.”
The Stark was much taller than Jace despite the fact he was only a year older. His gray eyes bore down at the guy. “Either get Aemond or move out of the way.”
The guy was shaking when he turned over his shoulder. “Aemond.”
Aemond came around the corner. “Has the food arrived? Shall we finally feast?”
His older brother’s face fell when he saw them. Jace stared wide-eyed. Whatever annoyance he felt before was gone. His brother wore a long wig with an eye patch covering his right eye. He was wearing black pants, a black leather tunic, and a black leather trench coat. By his side was a fake sword attached to a belt. Aegon was the first to say something.
“Is that a wig?” He asked while slowly raising his phone to take a picture.
Aemond looked horrified. “What are you doing here?”
“Muña’s going into labor”, Jace explained.
Aemond stepped forward. “Now? Is she alright? Did mom get her to the hospital?”
“Yes, and we need to go”, Jace expressed.
Aemond nodded. “Okay.”
“But my Prince, we need you for the campaign”, the guy said.
Aegon was trying to keep in his laughter. “Prince?”
Aemond sighed. “Sorry, family emergency comes first.”
Jace knew they didn’t have time to continue this argument and closed the door on the guy.
“Car, now”, he directed his siblings.
They didn’t need to be told twice. Aemond rushed to the passenger’s side while everyone else went to the backseat again.
Jace took one look at his older brother. “Before we leave…a campaign?”
“And cosplay?” Daeron asked from behind.
“It’s not cosplay, it’s for an original character”, Aemond explained.
“So, an OC?” Daeron asked.
Aegon furrowed his brows. “How do you know what that is?”
Daeron crossed his arms. “No reason.”
“Is that from the fantasy show you and Muña watch?” Helaena asked with a smile.
Aemond avoided looking at them. “Yes.”
Jace smiled. “Hey, at least you’re hanging with friends.”
Aegon leaned back in his seat. “Yeah, wait till we tell mom and muña when we get to the hospital now that everyone’s here.”
Aemond glanced back at the mirror to take in those present. Then he looked at Jace. Slowly, Jace’s brown eyes widened.
“Oh my god, we’re still missing Luke and Joffrey!” Jace yelled.
Aemond stared in disbelief. “I thought you already got them.”
“Obviously not! Do you see them in the trunk?”
Aegon actually turned back to look inside the trunk. “Yup not there.”
Cregan looked at the Targaryen. “You thought I would put them in the trunk?”
“I mean saves space. Also, Luke deserves it depending on the day, especially when he’s always messing with the neighbor.”
Jace straightened up. “Wait. Wait. Say that again.”
“He’s always messing with the neighbor?”
Jace started the car. “I know where Luke is.”
“Terrorizing Ms. Velaryon, no doubt”, Aemond sighed.
Jace made it quickly to the house. He refused to get out of the car and Aemond opted to be the one to knock on the front door. From what Jace could see from across the street, their neighbor, Ms. Velaryon answered the door. Her usual scowl was on her features when she opened the door. Aemond said something before she went back inside though curiously left the door open. Not even a minute went by when she came out dragging Luke by the collar of his shirt. His younger brother had a smirk on the entire time as she seemed to complain to Aemond about Luke. Eventually, she closed the door and Aemond walked with Luke back to the car.
Jace lowered his window as they approached. “Do I even want to know?”
Aemond tilted his head. “Apparently, he broke in through her cat’s door and tried to ‘prank’ her by putting blue hair dye in one of her hats.”
Jace shifted to his younger brother. “Luke?”
“She said blue is her favorite color, I don’t see the problem.”
Jace looked at Aemond who was back inside the car. “He didn’t dye her hair, right?”
Aemond looked over his shoulder. “No. Ask him what happened instead.”
Jace turned at Luke. For the most part, his brother looked fine. His shirt was a bit wrinkled from where Ms. Velaryon grabbed his collar. However, his shoes were fine as was his baseball cap. Jace’s eyes narrowed. Luke’s curls weren’t sticking out of the cap. He couldn’t see his brother’s hair at all. It was all tucked inside.
“Luke, the cap.”
Slowly, his brother reached for the cap and took it off, revealing a head full of blue hair.
Aemond sighed. “Yup.”
“I might have mixed up the hats I was supposed to dye”, Luke elaborated.
Jace could only stare. A moment passed before he turned back to the road and shifted the gears into drive.
“Where’s Joff?” was all he felt like asking anymore.
“Mom mentioned that he was at a field day event”, Luke answered.
Jace picked up his phone and began to call someone as they made their way to the park where Joffrey was having his field day. As they approached the park, Jace saw the crowd gathered. He stepped out of the car and ran toward the group. The children were wearing different colors from their respective teams. Joffrey was sitting on a bench with a teenage girl beside him. His brother was wearing a jersey with the name Targaryen on it. However, dirt had gotten on the jersey, his shorts, shoes, and somehow his face.
Jace smiled at the girl. “Hey, thanks for helping me get Joffrey.”
The girl smiled in return. “You don’t have to worry about it, I didn’t mind especially with Rickon participating in this too.”
Jace glanced at her shirt. Team Stark was written in silver letters.
“You guys winning?”
“Well, sort of.”
“What do you mean? You’re always good at sports.”
“Sadly, the sign-up age was from seven to ten, so I missed the mark”, she joked. “Instead, I’m on water bottle and moral support duty.”
Jace chuckled. “Maybe next time I can come and be the moral support of the moral support?”
He wanted to smack himself. God that sounded so stupid.
She leaned close and gave him Joffrey’s backpack. For a second, their fingers touched. “Definitely would like the support next time.”
Jace nodded while he tried to ignore his heart beating in his ears. “Yeah, of course, I’ll see you soon, Sara.”
Sara gave a smile. “See you soon, Jace.”
Jace watched as she walked away by the time she left his sight, Jace realized Joffrey was halfway to the car. He rushed after his brother. Once he got into the car, Jace mentally counted the people inside the car. He had managed to get the last of his siblings. Now, they could go meet up with their mothers.
The hospital was busy when they got there. Jace, his siblings, and Cregan passed by dozens of patients in the waiting room. He walked up to the nurse in the front.
“We’re here to visit, Rhaenyra Targaryen. She’s having a baby”, Jace explained.
The nurse glanced at the seven other people who he was with. “Sorry, I can’t allow that many people inside of the room while she’s in labor.”
“But we’re her kids”, Jace insisted.
This time the nurse’s eyes bulged, and she again glanced at the large group. Jace recognized the surprise in her eyes. He was used to it, being in a big family and such. Now his muña was going to have an eighth.
“I’m sorry I still can’t allow all of you inside during the labor.”
“What about like two of us?” He asked.
“Okay but only two.”
Jace turned back to his siblings. “Guys I’m going to check up on Muña and Mom, Aemond are you going too?”
Aemond glanced at Joffrey who was standing in front of the vending machine. “Yeah, someone just keep an eye on him.”
Jace and Aemond went down the hallway and found the room fairly quickly. Jace opened the door. His muña was lying on a bed while wearing a hospital gown and his mom was sitting in a chair beside her. Upon hearing the door creak open they both turned to him and Aemond. His muña gave him her usual bright wide smile.
“Jace. Aemond. You’re both here.” She reached out her arms.
Jace hugged her followed by Aemond. His mom stood from her chair then captured both of them in a hug.
“Oh Gods, I’m so glad you made it. Are the rest of your siblings here too?” His mom asked.
“They’re in the waiting room”, Aemond said.
His muña rubbed her belly. “That’s good. That’s good.”
“How’s everything been?” Jace inquired.
“Um”, his mom fidgeted with her nail.
Jace’s stomach dropped. That was never a good sign.
“The doctor is running late”, his mom explained.
“What do you mean running late?” Jace asked. “I’ve been running around trying to get everyone here, if anything I should be considered running late. How is he running late?”
“There was an accident on the highway and he’s stuck in traffic”, his muña expressed wearily.
“Wait but if he’s not here what happens?” Aemond asked.
“The nurses will have to help”, his muña said.
Jace scoffed. “So, the guy who we’ve been seeing for nine months for this exact delivery isn’t even here?”
“Jace, it's fine I’ve done this before. You have one example here and the others in the waiting room. I’ll be fine.”
She winced for a moment. “Just wait outside, don’t worry about me.”
Jace begrudgingly went outside and Aemond closed the door behind them. When they walked back into the waiting room, Jace excused himself and went outside toward the vending machine. Outside was fairly empty. Jace wanted to hit the machine, shake it, anything. He couldn’t just stand there and be useless when something bad might happen to his muña.
He wanted the machine to just swallow his dollar and give nothing back. He wanted a reason to take out his anger on the machine. That didn’t happen. The machine dropped a bag of candy. Jace roughly pulled it out.
“Didn’t know you were that serious about candy.”
Jace turned around to see Cregan had followed him.
“Shouldn’t you be in the waiting room?” Jace asked.
“Shouldn’t you? It’s your family.”
Jace looked away. “I just needed a minute.”
“Something happen?”
“You shouldn’t worry about it. I already dragged you into enough as is.”
“Okay, first of all, drop the bullshit, Jace. I let you take my car and went to go with you. I wasn’t dragged into anything. Call me crazy but I like hanging out with you and your family. And also, as your future brother-in-law-”
Jace scoffed.
Cregan looked offended but only cleared his throat. “I repeat as your future brother-in-law, your family is going to be my family too, so they concern me too.”
Jace shook his head with an amused smile. “Right your future mother-in-laws.”
“Exactly. So, what’s up?”
Jace shifted his gaze. “The doctor’s running late.”
“How late?”
“Might not get here in time late.”
“Crap. Okay. Okay. What’s his name?”
“Dr. Gerardys. Why?”
“Jace, just let me handle it,” Cregan assured.
Jace made a face. “What are you going to do?”
“Don’t worry about it.”
“Everything you say makes me even more worried.”
Cregan put his hand on Jace’s shoulder. “Jace, for once let me help you.”
“Fine just don’t do anything like…illegal.”
“Says the one that made an illegal U-turn earlier.”
“That was a different scenario.”
Cregan rolled his eyes. “Sure.” His gray eyes shifted. “In the meantime, you might want to talk to Joff.”
“Why?”
Cregan gestured over past the vending machine. Joffrey sat alone in a seat, staring at his lap.
Jace nodded at Cregan. The two parted before Jace approached Joffrey. He sat beside his youngest sibling. Joff wouldn’t look at anything beside his lap, tough.
“Hey, what are you doing here by yourself?” Jace asked gently. “Everyone else is inside the waiting room.”
Joffrey kept his arms crossed. “Waiting for the baby, I know”, he said bitterly.
Jace immediately knew what was wrong. “You’re upset about the baby.”
“Why did Muña and Mom have another baby? We were just fine before. Now when they have a baby, they’ll only pay attention to him. Everyone else is always busy. Aegon likes to go out with his ‘cool’ friends, Helaena comes home late from her play stuff, Aemond tells me I wouldn’t understand his shows, Daeron does his martial arts and soccer every day, Luke is always planning some prank on Ms. Velaryon, and you’re out with Cregan making your films. With the baby, you’ll forget about me even more than you already do.”
Jace faced his brother. “Joff, that isn’t true. Look, if I’m being honest, I was caught off guard by the baby too. However, even if I’m a bit nervous, I know that I’ll love him just like I love you.”
Joffrey continued to pout.
“We don’t forget you, Joff. We just have our own things sometimes and can get caught up in them. But you’re still our little brother.”
“You won’t forget about me?”
“Never.”
“Even if I got third place in the field day today?”
“Hey, third place out of twenty isn’t bad.”
Joff finally smiled. “I won at tug of war with my team.”
“You did?”
“Yeah, I accidentally threw dirt at someone on the other team.”
Jace’s face scrunched together. “How do you accidentally throw dirt?”
“I mean I said it was an accident.”
Jace stared at his brother. “An accident?”
“Yeah. I also accidentally stepped on someone else’s foot.”
“I’m starting to think these aren’t accidents.”
Joffrey giggled. Jace just ruffled his dirty hair.
“Want to go back inside the waiting room?” Jace asked.
Joff nodded.
When they walked back to the waiting room, Jace sat next to Helaena while Joffrey rested his head on his shoulder. Eventually, Cregan came back inside from wherever he was and sat on the other side of Helaena. They waited in the office for fifteen minutes before the door to the waiting was slammed open. A man in a white lab coat hastily ran down the halls. Jace sat up. It was Dr. Gerardys.
Jace turned toward his brother, Aemond. “He’s here.”
Aemond sighed. “Thank the Gods.”
Jace leaned back into his chair. The stress left his body when he allowed himself to relax his muscles. Half an hour went by when a nurse called their last name. Jace gently awoke Joffrey, who had fallen asleep.
Helaena took Joffrey by the hand and walked ahead toward the hospital room. Aemond followed behind with Aegon and Daeron, whose flip-flops squeaked against the white glossy tiles. Luke walked just ahead of Jace and Cregan.
“I’m surprised the doctor got here so fast”, Jace commented to himself.
“A little bit of persuading helps move things along”, Cregan mused.
Jace turned to his best friend and narrowed his eyes. “What did you do?”
“A little bit of persuading.”
“What did you do? And should I be concerned that it was illegal?”
“I just grabbed his business card at the front desk and gave him a call.”
“What did you say on the call?”
“I may have said something along the lines of a car accident being the least of his concerns if he’s late.”
“You didn’t. Cregan, you didn’t.”
“Motivation helps.”
Jace rubbed his temple. “Oh, my Gods.”
“Jace, hurry”, Helaena called.
They shuffled inside the hospital room. His mom was sitting beside the bed with a smile on her features. She gestured for them to get close. His muña was sweaty with her hair slightly tied as she held a bundle in her arms. Her eyes gleamed when she saw them enter the room.
“Kids, come over here”, she beckoned. “Come meet your baby brother.”
They approached her side. Jace smiled when he saw him. The blue blanket did little to hide his face. His tiny cheeks were red and round. His eyes were closed shut as he slept. His fingers were wrapped around his muña’s gown. Small strands of light hair were on the top of his head.
“Do you have a name for him?” Jace asked softly.
“We were actually talking about that”, his mom replied.
His muña scoffed playfully. “We can think about that later, let’s get a picture of the whole family.”
His mom scanned the room. “Oh, Gods where did I put that camera?”
Cregan grabbed the camera from a seat. “I got it.”
His muña smiled gently. “Cregan, would it be alright if you took a picture?”
Cregan smiled. “Got you, Mrs. T.”
All of his siblings stood on both sides of his muña as she and his mom presented the baby in her arms.
Cregan grinned. “Say cheese.”
Jace smiled with his family. A flash went off.
“You guys look great”, Cregan commented as he looked at the photo.
The door creaked as a nurse came in. Jace watched the color slowly drain from her face as she saw them. Jace looked back at his family. He had nearly forgotten Aegon and Daeron’s beach attire, Aemond’s eye patch, Helaena’s camo jumpsuit, Luke’s blue hair, Joffrey’s dirtied appearance, and his and Cregan’s shirts from their film.
“Hi”, his mom greeted the nurse. “Would it be alright if you took a picture of all of us?” She looked at his friend. “Cregan, get in the photo.”
“Yes, ma’am.” Cregan rushed to take a spot by their side.
The nurse took the camera. Her face looked less than impressed with the family.
Joffrey was looking down at their news addition when he out loud he said, “He kind of looks like an egg. That’s what I’m going to call him, Egg.”
Jace gave an amused smile as the camera flashed.
The nurse sighed. “Good luck Egg, you’re going to need it.”
Headcanons of my fic “Good Luck Egg” based on Disney Channel’s Good Luck Charlie
Rhaenyra and Alicent met in high school and were high school sweethearts, they got married two years into college
Alicent comes from a huge family and has five older brothers
Rhaenyra is an only child and it is painfully obvious (at least in her wife’s opinion)
Rhaenyra works in a trade field because she loves to get her hands dirty meanwhile Alicent works in an office because she loves consistency
Aegon is the eldest of their children but doesn’t act like it, Jace has parentified energy, and he acts like the oldest along with Aemond
Aemond and Rhaenyra are both big fans of a popular fantasy series, it's something they both bond over but it's also something Rhaenyra is scared to mention to others
Luke thinks their next-door neighbor, Mrs. Velayron is very grumpy and regularly tries to play pranks, his mothers didn't believe it at first because he is sweet at home
Daeron is very athletic and is involved in soccer and material arts (the latter making him terrifying in a fight)
Joffrey genuinely doesn’t like the new baby at first and doesn’t understand why his mothers had to have another one
Jace loves film and was interested in making short films before the baby was born so his skills with a camera came in handy when he decided to make video diaries
Aemond and Daeron share a room as well as Jace and Luke
Aegon has been for years trying to become “popular” at his school but has no idea that he actually is fairly popular he just doesn't realize it's not like in the movies
Helaena is interested in studying botany and insects, she hopes to one day do field research on both

A/N: I swear everything I write about these two happens at 1 AM
Aegon was sitting in another small council meeting. He was unsure of where his mind was until he noticed the trembling in his hands. His eyes shifted toward the man with pale hair seated beside him. Aegon leaned close to him and whispered one instruction into his ear.
“Get my wife, now.”
Aegon wasn’t sure what happened next. He was sure that he ordered his lords out of the council meeting. Somewhere there he heard himself yelling because they weren't leaving fast enough. He was curled up on the floor when an argument broke outside the council room.
“The king said to let her in,” Gaemon’s voice rose against someone else.
“A maester is better suited to help his grace,” someone responded.
“Let her in,” Aegon ordered from his place in the corner.
“But your grace what can she do that a maester can’t?” Someone dared ask.
Aegon snapped “, I’m not asking for a maester am I, my lord? I’m asking for my fucking wife.”
The doors were opened. Aegon lifted his eyes up. Gaemon walked inside and following closely was Jaehaera. She turned back to Gaemon and asked him something. His friend responded before closing the door behind him. The noise outside the council room seemed to move away.
“Aegon, I’m here.” She moved toward his side. “I asked Ser Gaemon to take the lords away.”
His hands were shaking. She grabbed them.
“It’s alright, it's just the two of us now.”
His eyes wavered. Jaehaera sat beside him on the floor.
“What do you need me to do?” She asked.
The pounding in his ears was still prevalent. He couldn’t focus well on her voice.
“Do you want me to get you something?” “No.” He shook his head. “Please just stay with me.”
Jaehaera nodded. She shifted to position herself in front of him. Gently she cupped his face.
He leaned forward and nestled his face into her neck. His arm reached back and pulled her close. He was terrified that she would freeze or become limp in his grasp. If he scared her away, he wouldn’t forgive himself.
His thoughts went silent when her fingers ran through his hair. That was all it took for him to begin to cry. He hated himself at that moment, how quickly he broke and turned into a hysterical child. This was the king of the seven kingdoms. Pathetic, he thought to himself.
Jaehaera stroked his hair while he sobbed into her embrace. He thanked the Gods for the patience they gave his wife as she said nothing until he slowly stopped. She held him at that point. The smell of her skin reminded him of the wildflowers in the Godswood. The soft beating of her heart was the only thing he heard. Tear stains formed on the neckline of her dress. He felt guilty when he noticed.
“Are you alright?” She asked in a quiet voice.
He managed a nod against her skin.
“Do you wish to speak about it?”
He remained silent. That said enough.
“Do you want water, Egg?” She paused a moment. “Do mind if I call you Egg?”
“You already have,” he pointed out. “I don’t mind.”
“I simply don’t want to call you something you don’t like.”
“Jaehaera, we’ve been married for years and have a child, you can call me whatever you please.”
“Just being sure, my lord husband.”
“Never mind any name except that. I hate that,” he said bluntly.
“How quickly you change your mind, my lord.” There was a hint of amusement in her tone.
Aegon lifted his head up, looking her in the eyes. “Don’t call me that either. Don’t call me anything to do with my station or title. You’re not below me, you just saw a king cry after all.”
Jaehaera brushed away the dried tears on his cheeks.
Aegon sniffled. “Thank you.”
“Of course, you called.”
“Not that. Thank you for staying.”
Jaehaera smiled. “I always will.”
Aegon remembered the memories that set him off earlier. Memories from the war…of them.
“Don’t make promises you aren’t sure you’ll keep,” he whispered.
She seemingly noticed his change in demeanor and leaned closer. “I’m staying Aegon, now and until the end.”
Aegon found himself agreeing. Just them now and until the end.
I like to think that this is a first step to them getting close to each other and only a few others like Gaemon are aware of Aegon's panic attacks

A/N: I wrote this one exactly one night apart from my previous Aegon x Jaehera fic and again at 1 AM
The drawing room was quiet. In the corner, a small child sat on the floor kicking her feet in the air while reading through her book. Elaena suddenly looked up at her with her shy lilac eyes. “Did you ever have a dragon mama?”
Jaehaera paused. Her hand froze right above the quill she had gone to reach. A beat of silence passed.
“Father had a dragon, did you?” Her daughter asked with the innocence of the five-year-old child she was.
“I did,” Jaehaera answered.
Elaena smiled, her arms tightening around the egg she held. “What was it like, having a dragon?”
Jaehaera gave a sad smile. “It was a feeling like no other. The bond one experiences with a dragon is a powerful thing.”
“Did you ride your dragon?” Elaena inquired.
Jaehaera dropped her hand to her side. “No, I never got to.”
Elaena tilted her head in confusion. “Why not?”
“I was too young at the time.”
Elaena glanced down at her egg and then back to her. “What was your dragon’s name mama?”
Jaehaera could still remember the dark scales and small horns of her dragon when she last went to the Dragonpit, before it was destroyed. “Morghul. His name was Morghul.”
Elaena had yet to notice the sad tone in her voice and pet her egg. Jaehaera cleared her throat, pushing down whatever emotions threatened to come out.
“Why do you ask, my love?”
Elaena frowned. “Papa doesn’t like talking about his dragon.”
“Your father loved his dragon, it is just a bit painful for him to talk about the subject,” she assured.
Elaena hugged her egg tighter. “Do you think he’ll be mad if my egg hatches?”
“No, my love, of course not.”
Jaehaera reached out and pushed away a strand of golden hair. Her daughter smiled.
Her husband was in his office reading documents when Jaehaera walked in. He lifted his nose out of the papers when she sat across from his desk.
“I looked at the lords’ petitions and wrote an answer to the Lady of Storm’s End. Then I was interrupted by Elaena.”
Aegon gave a rare smile. “What was our youngest up to now?”
Jaehaera shifted her gaze away from him. “She asked me about when I was younger and when I had… a dragon.”
She could almost hear his fingers tighten around the paper. She could hear the moment his hands set down the documents. Despite what many thought, her husband didn’t fear dragons, it was something deeper than that.
“Elaena only asked because she was curious about what it was like to bond with one, to fly with one, those things.” Jaehaera intertwined her fingers. “She wants one.”
“I’m aware,” Aegon responded without any particular emotion.
Jaehaera sighed. “Forgive me, I probably didn’t help the matter. I told her that having a dragon was unlike anything else in this world.”
“I’ve known that Elaena has wanted a dragon for a while now…but is she the only one?”
Jaehaera looked up at her husband. “What do you mean?”
Aegon’s features were serious, but his eyes were gentle. “Jaehaera, I’ve married to you long enough to know the sadness in your eyes.”
She wearily chuckled. “Says you.”
“The Dragonpit was destroyed but the Dragonmount wasn’t,” he stated. “I can have them bring you an egg if you wish.”
While his words were true, her husband looked uncomfortable. The idea and its implication made him uneasy.
Jaehaera shook her head vigorously. “No,” she stated firmly.
“Jaehaera, what about what you said?”
“I didn’t lie. Having a dragon is unlike anything else in this world, however, there was only one dragon for me. It was Morghul. He is gone now, and I will never ride the skies but that is fine with me because he was the only one, I would ever choose to take flight with.”
Aegon stared at her.
“I know you feel the same about Stormcloud.”
Aegon lowered his gaze though he reached out his hand to grab hers. Jaehaera took it. He brought it up to his lips and kissed her knuckles.
“I’m sorry for bringing it up,” she apologized.
“We’re the house of the dragon, it was inevitable,” he said.
“You would truly have given me an egg?” She asked incredulously.
“If it made you happy, then yes. On the condition it stayed outside.” He kissed her knuckles again. Jaehaera intertwined their fingers together. She was content with where they were.
