"Yes, but I am not getting inspiration to do so but as soon as I saw you I thought of a wonderdul poem inspired and based on you, would you mind sharing it with you."

"Yes My prince I would be honoured."

Prince Joffrey smiled and started to say the poem in a melodic voice.

"I think of you even when I'm careless

"Why is it necessary to separate?"

These questions came

The happiness of your closeness was unmeasurable

Even the distances in your portion were incomparable.

I am far away from you, why should I stay away?

I am proud of you Come, you bridge the distance,

I met you like a dream Why should I break my dream?

I think of you even when I'm careless "Why should I separate you?

These questions came

I'm a little angry with myself

You too felt a little sorry without any reason.

This is this yearning, this is this confusion

How can I live without you?

Now I am at odds with everyone

Why does he become my God?

These people are a garden, a forest fire

Why should I burn in fire?

They are unsuccessful in love, they are happy in defeat

Why should I be like them?

The nights will tell me, the only thing I talk about in my sleep is you.

How can I forget you, you are with me in my thoughts

I think of you even when I'm careless

"Why is it necessary to separate?" These questions came

Every scene is shattering like sand before our eyes

The pain is entering my body like poison.

Come on, world, try it, it doesn't get angry

Distance does not break courage

Neither is he unfaithful nor am I unfaithful

He doesn't quit like my habits."

"Wonderful! My Prince that was very beautiful. Did you really thought that inspired by me?"

'Not just inspired, It's all about you Milady. I was struggling to find a name, that's why asked y for your Name."

"You mean you names it after me."

"Yes My Milady, It's names after you I called it 'Sasan, My love'."

Sasan felt Very delightful and impressed by The Prince Joffrey as he smiled at her.

"You are very good at this even though You said you just started learning."

"Oh well, when I started to learn the most beautiful thing I learn about poems and songs that I kearnt was that you don't have to learn, you just have to feel it and express it. I used to do that when I was very little like 3-4 years just in my head it used to make feel pain in a delightful manner."

"What pain my Prince you endured at that age."

"Oh... Well let's just say that as a heir to Thorne you have to learn many painful things and everything very quickly I learned to walk and talk very early much like other I didn't felt joy but pain all the time."

"That's sad, My Prince I am Sorry."

"No, It's a lesson you don't have to be sorry I feel comfortable when I say eveeything I have in my heart to you, joy or pain it unburdens my heart, I feel free from the pain. As if giving me comfort of I am not alone and sharing a journey with someone very special."

As Prince Joffrey said that Sasan felt very specially and grown feelings for the Prince Joffrey.

"You know, Milady I would wrote it right now and give you the First original writings if it, when it becomes the song of love you would be the one everyone remember as you will also have it's original writings."

"That's a Very thoughtful idea But where would you write it my prince?"

Susan started to praise Prince Joffrey.

"Wow, Very impressive my prince Where did you learn that? I didn't know you could do That with just some stems and leaves this quickly."

Prince Joffrey looked at Sasan while still writing on leaves.

"When I said I was learning to write poems and songs , I Was talking about these things Mostly I have to write it all while hiding it from my father, He won't allow for The Future King to write some poems and songs or sing it. So I created a way to secretly do it by myself."

Prince Joffrey looked at Sasan's eyes and then pointed the leaves and from the ink written something on the back looking at both Sasan and the leaves. As he did within a minute he finished writing it all while Sasan Watched him and as Or once Joffrey finished writing he handed the leaves to Sasan, she started To read it while this Prince Joffrey looked at her. As She read it and finished it she noticed something written on the back and realised Or once Joffrey proposed a love letter on the leaves for her which stated.

"Would You be My princess and Join The Journey with me together?"

Sasan was surprised, she took the ink that Prince Joffrey was holding and written 'Yes' on it. After That She held the leaves and smiled with joy infront of Prince Joffrey as she said.

"Yes, My Prince."

Prince Joffery Put a hand on his face as he fell down , Sasan worriedly caught him as Prince Joffrey smiled back.

When They are finally separated for a moment, they looked at each other and then they kissed again as they embraced each other deeply. After a while when they looked at each other hand, Sansa moved her under Prince Joffrey's clothes.

"No, not Now I want it special for you."

Sansa blushed as Prince Joffrey said it.

"And I have To ask for your parent's permission for your hand as well."

"I didn't thought you would need to. As you are The Prince"

"Ofcourse I do, and well I am hope as I say I am the Prince they will be convinced already beacuse I will be too nervous to say the rest."

Sansa Chuckled again.

"And what if they don't?"

"Says the person who was nervous to talk to me and now straight up teasing me."

"I am not teasing you, I am just enjoying myself and it's beacuse you are way more kinder than I thought."

"That sounded more like an insult than a praise."

Sansa laughed.

"Okay, I am teasing you a little. I didn't meant like that. I genuinely think you are way more gentle and caring than I heard of."

"I know."

They both at looked at each other for a while the direwolf came near Prince Joffrey as he looked at the direwolf.

"She likes you a lot, my prince."

"Yes, I think a way with pets."

"Do you love animals too, my prince?"

"Yes, I do."

"So do you any of the pets, My prince?"

"No, My father I won't allow me to have them He thinks The King would be silly to befriend, he should rather hunt them instead.

Prince Joffery got up as he continued.

"I always bought an animal or pet and it was always thrown away by him and I once bought up a dog as pet and shown it to him, He shown me a knife and given it to me and told me to cut it."

"Oh my prince, that's terrifying, He shouldn't have done that."

"I was tearing up as He told me to do it and told me to not cry as I do it or else he will have me hunt and cut his family too, so I did not cry and did as he told me to and from that day, I Never bought An animal as a pet even again."

"You father was cruel to do that."

"No he was being a king and not my father, I don't think he ever did try to teach me as father but always as a heir to the throne As for the animals even though I loved them I never bought them again and started to pretend I don't like them or have an affection, thinking One day I will truly won't, it always made me think which will be worse, or hurt more,not pretending to be hurt, or actually not being hurt by it at all one day."

"I Don't think you will ever become like that, My Prince."

Prince Joffrey smiled.

"Yes, maybe, I will see you again my princess."

"Yes, I can't let you be all cool now after all I am your princess."

Sansa smiled as she said that and both of them looked each other, As finally Prince Joffrey went outside with a smile and slowly changes his expression as unfazed.
