Note: This is the story of Legolas's and Haldir's love. Of course some of the characters may be OOC. Working on grammar, Spent ages proof reading. Enjoy ^.^
Legolas smiled as he watched Aragorn and Arwen dance. They looked so happy as they stared deep in to each other's eyes. Their wedding had been a great success, and now as the twirled on the dance floor you could see the love they shared.
Legolas retreated to the door when he heard a voice behind him. "Ohh prince Legolas, leaving so soon? I thought we could share a dance together?" said the voice.
Legolas turned around to see Vierra standing there. "Vierra! I told you to stay away from me!" cried Legolas. Legolas didn't particularly like Vierra. She was sent to Minas Tirith by his father who has constantly been pestering him to find a wife, preferably Vierra.
"Legolas, I just want to have some fun with you." she replied with a cheeky grin. Legolas sighed, "Vierra, honestly you need to know when to stop, I don't want you and I never will. I just don't have that connection with you." Vierra's grin turned into something furious, "You will regret this, Prince Legolas." were her final words. She gave him one more angry glare, then stormed off.
'Great' thought Legolas, his father is sure to hear about this. Legolas stared around bitterly why couldn't he be happy? It was his best friend's wedding. Legolas sighed and left.
2 days after the wedding ceremony Legolas got a letter from his father:
Dear Legolas,
I want you to know I am not mad at you for not choosing Vierra. I am very sorry I tried to get you to marry her, it was wrong of me and I hope you can forgive me.
As my only son and the heir to the throne of Mirkwood I would like you to come home for a bit, I understand you may decline but I have missed you my son, and I wish to talk with you once again.
Please think about it.

Once Legolas had read the letter he threw it on the bed and sighed. He might as go back to Mirkwood. He was nothing but a burden here in Gondor. Legolas did miss his father and he had been away from home for quite some time. With that Legolas sat down and started to write a reply to his father:
Dear Ada,
I accept your apology. I wish to come back to Mirkwood for I have been away from my home for so long.
I will arrive in a few days.
Legolas

Aragorn sat quietly in his study. He was catching up on paper work, when he heard a knock on the door. "Come in," said Aragorn tiredly, he lightened up a bit when he saw Legolas standing in the door way.
"Oh, Hello Legolas what is the matter? I haven't seen you since the wedding ceremony." This was true, with Aragorn being so busy as the new king he had barley little time to spend with friends or family. "Hello mellon (friend), I came here to tell you I am leaving for Mirkwood, My father requests that I come home." replied Legolas unhappily.
Aragorn sighed sadly "I knew this would happen. I will miss you mellon, please stay safe…. for me."
"I promise Aragorn. Good luc-"but Legolas was cut off with Aragorn taking Legolas in a hard hug. When Aragorn finally released, Legolas smiled, "Goodbye my friend." and with those final words Legolas left. He knew he'd miss Aragorn greatly, the only thing that kept his spirits up was knowing that he would see his good friend again. Legolas sighed sadly and made his way over to Gimli's room.

When Legolas had finally said his hard goodbyes to all his friends. He packed his things, got on his horse and left for Mirkwood. It had been a few hours of riding now.
Legolas stopped and stared at the distance lands, he couldn't believe the quest was actually over. All this land looked familiar so many memories, Legolas recalled them fondly.
He realised he'd just come to the borders of Rohan, he could just see the start of Fangorn forest. Legolas had already decided he would stop at Lorien for a break of his travels, Though the quickest way through to Lorien was through Fangorn forest.
Legolas weighed his chances of getting hurt and decided to go through Fangorn, and with that Legolas rode on to the dark forest with not a care of what lurked in those misty trees.
