Disclaimer: I don't own anything of the Lord of the Rings. It all belongs to J.R.R Tolkien.

Note: New story because I made the other stories to long and I don't want that again so I split it into two. The title will be the same only then part 2 or something like that, hope you like that. I am not going to say anything about them getting separated because it is all part of the plot. Let's begin.

Darkness was bliss. darkness would erase all the pain and only leave the memories that were left. Darkness was better then all the light, for light showed a hopeless situation that he did not want to face, yet light also showed him the one he loved. The world shook and Elessar Aragorn Telcontar, King of Gondor opened his eyes, he felt weary but his grey eyes fixed on his son who was crying in his crib.

With a grunt the man got up and rushed over to the crib standing in the corner where he picked the little Half-Elf up. A half elf because his mother the fair Arwen Undomiel was of Elf kind, his lady love the only lady he had ever loved and had robbed of her immortality, dying when she gave birth to his son, his Eldarion.

He rubbed his eyes and slowly crawled the little child to his chest, saying. "Hello ion nin, how are you this fair night? For me I have not been better then the past few weeks. How I wish he was here, how I wish he could stay and he did not have to go, ai Legolas, why did this happen?" Tears were making their way down his cheeks, tears for the first time falling since six long months.

Six months ago Aragorn had lost consciousness when a blow to the head by Lord Elrond left him sinking to the floor. By the time he woke up Elrond was well on his way with his beloved Legolas to Rivendell for the Elf had suffered an infected wound. Aragorn had pleaded and demanded that they bring him back and by the sound of it even Legolas had done his share of complaining until one fateful night.

When Legolas was on his way back with a couple of the Rivendell guards to visit his father in Mirkwood and after that he would come back to Minas Tirith, to Aragorn, or so his letter said, that was the last time Aragorn had heard from the Elf.

In the Misty Mountains, which were thought safe after the passing of the Dark Lord Sauron, Legolas and his guards were taken captive. His guards were slain and Legolas was used for torment, not long afterwards he was raped by one of the orcs. As were the ways of the Elves Legolas sank into despair and by the time his father and the sons of Elrond, Elladan and Elrohir had gotten there it was too late. Legolas was weakened and had fallen into a deep coma, nothing could wake him.

Aragorn had tried to make it to Rivendell in time but a letter from the Lady Galadriel had confirmed his fears and he had decided to stay in Gondor. A second letter attached to the one he had gotten was send to Gimli, son of Gloin, asking him to come to Rivendell as soon as possible. Aragorn had send his heart with Gimli, asking him to take care of the Elf he loved so much and he had received a promise back.

Aragorn signed and looked back down at his son, his blue eyes stared back up at his own and he gave the boy a sad smile, standing up and taking the letter he had left on the desk.

To King Elessar of Gondor.

Dear Aragorn,

With pain in my heart I have to say that Legolas has weakened greatly. He was taken captive by the Orcs and tortured and raped, falling into a deep comatose state that nobody seems to be able to rouse him from. It is my belief as it is shared by others that you would be able to but it is our word against that of Elrond.

Elrond deemed it best to take him to Valinor as did Gandalf, who has given his word that Legolas should wake then with a full memory of you and your time together. I, who have wandered in his dreams saw what he wanted the most to be happy with you. He told me he could not wake until you were safely by his side or before he was in Valinor where he would wait for you, knowing you would come.

He had two requests, one which I send to you here, that you carry it with pride and know he will wait for you as he knows he holds you heart. The second one is that Gimli will travel with him to the Undying Lands, holding him to his promise that he will wait for you, might he ever despair.

Remember he will always love and do not be long in your coming. Aragorn remember his last letter and the time you spent together and will do once again. We will be leaving one week from now, I know you will not be able to come by the last wish of Elrond, but your thoughts go with him.

Until we meet again.

Galadriel.

"Not only my thoughts but also my soul shall go with him." Aragorn thought, remembering the last promise of Gimli before he left which was two months ago. "I shall take care of him, I promise this, Aragorn, come when you can but not before your time, Legolas shall wait for you." The ship had set sail and Aragorn had felt the loss strongly yet that night something happened, something he did not dare to dream of.

Flashback

After falling into a restless slumber Aragorn opened his eyes to find himself in a strange land, a land he did not know. "Where am I?" He asked out loud. "Why meleth, I have never seen you, who had seen so much, ask this question before." A soft voice answered him, a voice he had known long and loved well. He turned and there stood the Golden Elf, the Prince of Eryn Lasgalen, the Elf he loved so much. "This cannot be." He gasped before soft lips were pressed against his own.

Legolas smiled gently and said. "We set sail and already I can feel my soul lifting, it wants to go to you, to my soul mate, who said that a bond would be forged that would be stronger then anything else. This will be the last time before many years to come before I see you, before I once again can bask in your love and defend you in front of the council. The years will be hard on the both of us but I love you so, promise me to come when your time is up, come to me, meleth, promise me."

"I promise, Legolas, I promise." Aragorn cried, feeling the Elf slide something around his neck and then the ring he had wore around his finger, the Ring of Barahir was in his hand and he said. "Take it and wear it, know that I will be back to reclaim what is mine." He urged, nodding slowly and taking the Elf's hand in his own and kissing them before kissing the lips of the Elf. Legolas kissed him back and night was something to remember.

End Flashback.

Aragorn looked back down at his son who was safely nested in his arms before he said in a soft voice. "I swear you will know all of them, including the one who means so much to me." He swore the last part, wishing for death to claim him so he could go to the one he loved, so he could stay with Legolas. Little did he know that thousands of miles across the sea a blond Elf by the name of Legolas Greenleaf was looking to the East while the King's gaze was always and would always be till the end of his reign when he would go into the West.

Hope you liked the first chapter, It will be a happy ending eventually, unless you guys want a sad ending. But anyway leave a review.
