A/N: Well, here is a good hearted story! Some swear words, but nothing much. Reviews are very nice and I LOVE them!! Enjoy!
*************************
Riding fast upon Arod with Gimli holding onto him from behind Legolas smiled as he felt freedom course through his blood and his long blond hair flowing behind him. A new strength flowed through his body and it made him push Arod into a faster run across the land of Gondor.
It had been nearly a year since the War of the Ring had haunted the lands of Middle-Earth and the young Elf felt pure joy that peace was now growing in the land. Almost all the damage from the war had been fixed and new trees and cities grew in the land.
Behind the smiling Elf was Gimli, son of Gloin, cursing in Dwarven as he clung tighter to the Elf in front of him. "Slow this damned beast down you crazy Elf! I am not one for running horses! Damn creatures!"
"What is the problem, Master Dwarf?" Legolas asked with humor in his musical voice. "Does Arod go to fast for your liking?"
"Of course this blasted beast is going to fast! I am a Dwarf! And if your pointed ears didn't hear my saying almost a year ago let me say it again! Horses and Dwarfs do not mix!" Laughter flowed in the air from the Elf as he laughed at Gimli's words. Leaning forwards, Legolas softly spoke some Elven words into Arod's ear and smiled with satisfaction as Arod ran even faster, which earned many curses from Gimli.
Feeling the wind rush past him, Legolas slowly released Arod's mane and began to stretch his arms out away from his body. He leaned back slightly and tilted his head back as he closed his eyes and smiled, but his movement surprised the Dwarf and he quickly tightened his grip around the Elf's waist tighter almost cutting off the Elf's air.
Within the matter of seconds both Legolas and Gimli fell from the back of Arod and on to the ground with a hard thump. Legolas was able to roll and come out unhurt and Gimli was able to come out of it unhurt as well, but the Dwarf was raging mad.
Quickly Gimli ran over to his Elven friend, worry slowly taking him over when his saw his friend's shaking body, but anger surged through him as he heard the light laughter of the Elf. "What are you laughing about, you crazy Elf? I see nothing funny about falling off a horse again!"
"Ai, I do!" Legolas paused as he laughter some more. "I have never fallen off a horse before. This is my first time ever!" Light laugher filled the air and Gimli shook his head, but his anger slowly left when he thought about an Elf falling off his horse.
"Come on now, get up and call your horse so we can start back and I can tell this to Aragorn over a cup of Malt Beer!" Gimli laughed a bit as he looked at Legolas' face change from playful to serious.
"You would not dare."
"Yes I would."
"Not if you know that I would tell the tale of you running around after a female Elf when you were drunk." Legolas smiled as Gimli growled at him. "A tale for a tale?"
"You are a tricky Elf," Gimli grumbled. "Fine, I will not tell the tale, but anyone finds out about me and that female Elf than this tale gets out."
"Find, but I must tell you it would get many laughs with the poetry and songs you were reciting to her!" Legolas laughed and quickly got up as Gimli tried to tackle the Elf, but missed.
"Damn Elf," the Dwarf shook his head as he quickly followed the Elf toward Arod, who had stopped further down the field.
"Come Gimli! Aragorn will be waiting for us and Arwen will not want us to arrive at the celebrations with field grass in our hair! And you might miss your beer if you do not hurry up!" Legolas laughed and quickly got on to Arod's back and patiently waited for his Dwarven friend to get to where Arod stood with a smile upon his face.
The End
