Penneth- little one.
-.-.-.-.
Legolas opened the door to his sisters' room.
"Mina? Are you there?"
A low humming answered him, he entered and discovered a small figure crawled up in the big window looking out.
"It's raining." Said Minaswen slowly when he approaches.
"I know." He said gently and sat down beside her.
"I don't want it to rain."
"Why not?" he said looking at her. Her gaze was fixed outside.
"It makes me sad, I can not see the stars when it rains. I miss them." She said simply.
"But they are still there you know. Above the clouds." He smiled at her as she looked at him for the first time since he entered the room.
"Are you sure?" her voice was suspicious.
"I am absolutely sure." He said smiling.
She was quite for a while.
"Las."
"Yes penneth?"
"Do you have to leave?" Legolas sighed. He was supposed to travel to Lorien with a message from his father tomorrow, Minaswen was not to thrilled about it.
"I'm afraid so."
She crawled up in his knee and hugged him.
"I don't want you to leave." She whispered.
"I will not be gone long, I'll be back before you starts missing me." He said. She didn't answer.
"You know." Said Legolas and looked up on the cloudy sky. "I will still be here, like the stars. You will just not see me." Mina looked up, doubt shining in her fair face.
"Where?" she asked.
"Right here." He said and pointed at her heart. She smiled at him and hugged him again. They sat so for a while.
"Las?"
"Hmm?"
"It's not so bad when it rains after all."
"I'm glad to hear that penneth." He said and hugged her closer.
