THE FRIENDSHIP OF
FRODO AND SAM
Summary: A story of Frodo and Sam before the war of the ring
CHAPTER ONE
THE MEETING
The cart wheels rumbled along the gravel road, the pony whinnied to say hello to another as they past. "Well Frodo my lad, how do you like Hobbiton so far?" asked Bilbo looking at the younger hobbit that sat by him in the cart. The 13 year old ( in hobbit year that's more like 9) finally looked at Hobbiton and then back to Bilbo smiling his first real smile in a long time, you could always tell when Frodo was happy his smile would always reveal the gap between his two front teeth. "Oh it is just beautiful Uncle," said Frodo with his blue eyes sparkling. The way the sun hit his hair made his almost black curls look lighter then they really were. "Well it's a nice day, one of the nicer days we have had in a while wouldn't you say?" said Bilbo. "Yes, umm, Uncle Bilbo are we almost there?" asked Frodo. "Yes my boy, in fact Bag End is just over the hill there, But I was going to take you to meet someone first if you don't mind," said Bilbo. "Oh of course not Uncle I would love to meet some of my new neighbors," said Frodo hoping that maybe this person had children. They stopped just at the foot of the hill that Bilbo said Bag End was on. It was an older hole, in fact Hobbiton was an older part of the Shire. Bilbo got down from the cart, then helped Frodo down, Frodo was small for being 13, in fact if you did not know him you may think him younger then he really was. "Ham, Bell, are you here?" yelled Bilbo. "We are over here in the garden Mr. Bilbo," came a voice from the side of the hole. Bilbo led Frodo to the side of the hole. Frodo saw an older hobbit in the garden, a mother hobbit holding a baby, and five other children helping in the garden. "Hello Mr. Bilbo sir, do you need something?" Asked Hamfast Gamgee. "No, I just wanted to introduce you to someone. Ham, Bell, children, this is my nephew Frodo, Frodo this Ham, Bell, the baby is May, Daisy, Hamson, Halfred, Goldie, and Samwise Gamgee,"said Bilbo. "It's very nice to meet you Mr. Frodo," said Ham and Bell. "Yes it is very nice to meet you Mr. Frodo," said all the children. "It is very nice to meet all if you too," said Frodo. "How old are you Mr. Frodo?" Asked Bell. "I am 13," said Frodo. "Well that's nice Hamson is 11, Halfred is 9, Sam is only 7 but likes to tag along, I think you are all going to be good friends, don't you?" said Bell. "Yes," said Frodo, he was watching Sam as he shyly walked up to him with a hand behind his back. "Welcome to Hobbiton Mr. Frodo," said Sam handing Frodo some flowers and a hand full of mushrooms. " Oh thank you Sam, mushrooms are my favorite and these flowers are beautiful," said Frodo. "I planted and grew them myself," said Sam smiling from ear to ear. "Well Frodo we better get going if we want to get you settle in before supper," said Bilbo. "Oh won't you stay for late afternoon tea?" asked Bell putting May on her hip. "No thank you Bell we really must be going, come along Frodo," said Bilbo as he started walking toward the cart. "Yes Uncle, it was nice to meet all of you, and thank you again Sam for the mushrooms and the flowers," said Frodo as he ran to catch up with his Uncle. "Well do you like them Frodo?" asked Bilbo. " Oh yes Uncle, very much," said Frodo who was nibbling on a mushroom. "I think you and the two older boys are going to get along very well, don't you?" asked Bilbo. Frodo nodded but deep down he had a feeling that he and Sam were the ones that were going to be inseparable friends. TBC
