Author's Note

Hi guys! Wow, thanks for all the great reviews so far – you guys are terrific! And mainly because you are all so terrific and you have asked so nicely we 're working like crazy to post the entire fiction: "Forever in a Heartbeat" (FIAH)

But if you have read 'Forever' we would like to warn you that it only occurs very late in FIAH – Aragorn has to go through some pretty heavy angst before he can accept his love for Legolas – so everyone looking for some juicy A/L action is going to have to wade through some tamer fluff first to get there! We even plan on upgrading to lemon status . . . but that depends on whether that's the kind of stuff you guys like. (*wink wink nudge nudge – review! lol*) Never fear, though – for the first hints of slash (OK actually it's one huge hint, but you're gonna have to read to find out!) are already in the 3rd chapter!! YAY! *Cheers wildly*

But, we will certainly try to make the whole thing worth your while.

We are trying our best to put everything we have into this – but 'twill all be for naught if no one likes it, won't it?

So without further ado we give to you the first Chapter…

Kyrri:               Do we have to?

Shir'ann:             Yes, Kyrri.

Kyrri:               *faint hope sparkling in eyes* Are you sure?

Shir'ann:             *sighs and nods*

Kyrri:               *sobs, but has a very determined look on her face* We own none of these characters! They belong to J.R.R Tolkien, who is god. Bow before him. *bows*

Shir'ann:           Now, that wasn't so bad, was it?

Kyrri:               *cries uncontrollably* I want my Arry!

Shir'ann:           There, there. . . *pats Kyrri on the back*

Kyrri:               Hold me?

Shir'ann:           *leans forward to kiss Kyrri passionately on the lips*

Kyrri:               That'll do fine. . .
