Author's Note: I am incredibly excited to finally be posting this story online. I have been thinking about it and planning it for some time now. I hope you all enjoy reading it as much as I've enjoyed writing it! The entire story is inspired by the song "A Thousand Years" by Christina Perri. If you have no heard it before, I recommend looking up the lyrics and looking up the song. The entire story will be divided into four 'books,' if you will: one section for Fellowship, one section for Two Towers, one section for Return of the King and one afterward section. As of right now, this story is rated T, but I will let you know if that changes. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own the Lord of the Rings books nor do I own the Lord of the Rings movies. I do not own any of the characters. I do not own the song "A Thousand Years." No profit is being made off of this story; it is being written merely for entertainment purposes.
Preface:
All of the dreamers out there will tell you to follow your heart. No matter what. "If something doesn't feel right, don't do it" they would preach.
But it's obvious that they'd never been in a predicament like mine, because this definitely didn't feel right, but I had to go through with it.
How do you follow your heart when your life could be at stake? How do you find the courage to do what you feel is "morally right" and such?
When your heart is screaming "no" and your head is screaming "yes" which one do you listen to?
