The Scarf By Robin Girl Chapter 1

~~

I hadn't meant for it to be more than one chapter. O.o; But it turned out that way. So..yeh. It's yet another little Pippin story. I'm getting addicted to these. LOL. Naw, Pip is just so cute when he's little. ~~

"But mom I don't want to learn how to knit." Meriadoc Brandybuck whined.

"I don't care Meriadoc. It will be a good skill to learn."

Merry pouted and he was forced to sit down beside his mom and learn how.

10 years later Merry was in his room knitting. Of all things to be doing he mused softly. Those words "It will be a good skill to learn" they were a trap. But then again, now he could make anything. Merry Brandybuck smiled looking at the green..thing.. It was supposed to be scarf for Pippin.

Though to be honest, it looked pretty pathetic. But the seven-year old wouldn't mind. It was almost .He held it out to look at it.

"Merry, Pippin's here."

"Tell him to come in." Merry quickly replied hiding the scarf.

A few minutes later the door creaked open and a small head of curly hair peaked in. "Merry?" The figure stepped in softly, it was a hobbit lad no more than seven years old. His hair was a dark blondish color and he was wearing green trousers and a white button up shirt. Perturbed that he couldn't find his older cousin he stomped his foot. "Merry on."

Merry laughed softly from behind the door. Quietly he moved out and grabbed the child scooping him up. "Hey botheran, how are you?"

Pippin squeaked with delight and hugged his cousin. "We might have to stay awhile.."

"Oh?" Merry sat down in his reading chair, Pippin still in his lap. "And why might that be?"

"It's snowing."

"Oh? It is?" Merry looked out his window and saw that in deed it was snowing.

"Yeh, want to come out and play with me?"

"Is it alright with your parents?"

"It is if I can find a scarf. Can I borrow one of yours?" Pippin looked up his eyes pleading. "Please, I'll return it. I promise I will." "I know you will, but I have something better." Merry stood and gently plopped his cousin in the chair. The Brandybuck went into his closet and pulled out various objects. "Could you use this?"

Pippin's eyes widened with a are your serious look. "I can't wear pants as a scarf."

"Oh? Well alright then, lets try another thing."

"Merry what are you trying to do?"

"Getting something.."

"Oh?" Pippin giggled as Merry pretended to look lost then grab a candle stick.

"I bet you could definitely use this as a scarf." Merry turned around holding a candle stick.

Pippin fell out of the chair in stitches laughing. "I can't use that."

"Oh well Pip, I've been through everything.." Merry watched the seven year old's face turn sad.

"So I can't go out side with you?" Pippin pouted.

"Wait.." Merry grinned grabbing a green thing. It was the scarf that he had made. He took it and wrapped it around Pippin's neck. "I think that will fit you well.."

"Wow. It's pretty." Pippin exclaimed, "And it's soft. Who made it for you?"

"Read the tag." Merry replied proud of his handy work.

Pippin's eyes almost crossed as he tried to read it. 'To Pippin from Merry." His eyes lit up and he jumped into Merry's arms. "Thank you!!"

"You're welcome." Merry kissed his cousin's hair playfully.

"Can we go outside now?" Pippin asked.

"Yes, we can." Merry smiled as Pippin ran out of the room. He grabbed his own coat and followed Pippin.
