Fans of the hit series Game of Thrones didn’t know how to feel on Sunday when one of the show’s lead characters starred in a particularly saucy scene.
Arya Stark, played by Maisie Williams, 22, lost her virginity to Gendry in the second episode of season eight.
After years of flirting, Arya and Gendry, played by Joe Dempsie, 31, did the deed after she said she wanted “to know what it feels like”.
Though Arya might have been nervous, it didn’t stop her from standing her ground in the bedroom.
The fan-favourite put him in his place: “I’m not the Red Woman. Take your own bloody pants off.”
As next week’s episode sees her go into battle, this could have been Arya’s last chance to spend a night with her longtime crush.
Viewers who have seen her grow up with the series were left divided by the sex scene and took to Twitter to voice their confusion.
One tweeted: “Arya making sure she goes out with a bang!”

While a second added: “Arya losing her virginity is something I’ll be discussing with a therapist.”
A third chipped in: “Not a baby anymore!”
And a fourth wrote: “Y’all really thought having us watch Arya since she was a little girl and then giving us that scene was a good idea?”
Though fans were concerned over her age, a few did the maths and realised that her character is actually supposed to be around 18 years old.
Next on her agenda is the battle against the Night King, which has GOT fans feeling nervous.

While Sunday night’s episode was relatively drama-free, viewers feel that it could be a sign that next week will see massive bloodshed.
As one Twitter user said: “Realising that this is really the last episode we’re going to see half of these characters alive…”
And a second added: “I know full well that everybody I love is going to die next week!”
Unfortunately, fans have to wait a whole week to see if their predictions come true.
