Disclaimer: I do not own any of these characters. They are property of
Tolkien Enterprises and therefore I do not get any money for writing this.
But money I don't need. This story also involves the Alanis Morissette
lyrics 'Hands Clean'. I did not make up this wonderful text myself, though
I wish I had. If you want something I have a copyright on, read my poems
instead and get a kick out of that.
--------------------OH LOVER! WHY HAVE I LET YOU GO?------------------------ -
If it weren't for your maturity none of this would have happened
If you weren't so wise beyond your years I would've been able to control myself
If it weren't for my attention you wouldn't have been successful and
If it weren't for me you would never have amounted to very much

It had not seemed like such a hard task at first, to give up Aragorn. He had prepared his heart for that ever since he first took the man for a lover. He knew he would either lose Aragorn to a woman or to time itself. For time was betraying between an Elf and a Man.
Oh, how he hated his own betraying heart for loving the man. A Man! A Mortal! He wanted to scream and shout out his own desperation but he could not do so.
They had a quest on their hands. Two halflings were to be rescued from the foul hands of the Orcs.
Legolas, the youngest son of Thranduil, watched the roughed human as he knelt down, finding a clue on where the Hobbits might have gone. Legolas wished he was the leaf the Man held to tenderly in his hands. But his desires were uncalled for. It had been years since he had touched Aragorn. But oh how he remembered that touch, the feeling of his skin so rough but still so fine.
His heart had been stolen by the grey eyes of a child...
And he watched the child as he now was knelt down, talking to the dwarf. His heart longed to touch him but Legolas knew better and kept watch, his keen eyes scanning the sky. The eagle was still over them but this time he did not voice his thoughts. Aragorn had dismissed them the last time he said they were being followed by an eagle.

You're essentially an employee and I like you having to depend on me
You're kind of my protege and one day you'll say you learned all you know from me
I know you depend on me like a young thing would to a guardian
I know you sexualize me like a young thing would and I think I like it

"What are you thinking, Legolas?" Aragorn asked the Elf, his eyes filled with concern.
"'Tis nothing, Aragorn. I was just thinking back to more peaceful times," Legolas replied as he searched through his pack for some food. Lembas. He took one out and ate it slowly.
"About us?" Aragorn asked and sat down next to him.
Legolas chuckled and looked at the Man. "Yes. And before that as well"
"It was fun," Aragorn said.
Ai? Fun? I lobe you, you stupid Man but you do not see it.
"Yes, it was," Legolas said softly, hiding the pain in his voice.
"Well..." Aragorn stood up and walked to Gimli.
Legolas closed his eyes bitterly and stood up. "I will be taking the first watch. You go to sleep, stupid dwarf. And sleep well, both of you"
"Sure, crazy Elf," Gimli said and rolled out his blanket. Legolas walked to a tree and stood there, alone. And bitter.

what part of our history's reinvented and under rug swept?
what part of your memory is selective and tends to forget?
what with this distance it seems so obvious?
Just make sure you don't tell on me especially to members of your family
We best keep this to ourselves and not tell any members of our inner posse
I wish I could tell the world cuz you're such a pretty thing when you're done up properly
