Arwen smiled as she saw him, her eyes feasting on the sight of his
features that she couldn't get enough of.
He turned toward her, and smiled, love shining in his eyes, as he walked
toward her. He sat down beside her on the bench she was sitting on, and
placed a tender kiss on her lips.
"Good morning," he said, putting his arms around her.
"Good morning," she replied, snuggling up closer to him.
He stroked her hair, loving the feeling of her against his body. "What
are you doing today?" he asked.
She shrugged, leaning against him. "Nothing really. You?"
"Nothing really." He replied. "You want to 'do nothing'
together?"
She turned toward him and smiled. "I'll do anything with you, Estel."
He smiled, and brought her closer to place a kiss on her lips. She
deepened in with a flick of her tongue, and he flicked back.
Suddenly, Arwen's sharp ears heard footsteps coming in their
direction. She broke away from Aragorn, and ran to hide behind a tree,
dragging him with her.
Aragorn wrapped his arms around her, pressing her against the tree
with his body. His eyes watched the bench where they had just been.
He saw Lord Elrond looking around suspiciously. Aragorn leaned his
head closer to Arwen's, and whispered in her pointed ear, "Your father's
out there." as softly as he could. He looked in Arwen's eyes, and saw a
mix of fright and amusement.
After a time, Elrond left. The two lovers breathed a sigh of relief
when Elrond was out of hearing range. Aragorn started to move away from
Arwen, but she put her arms around his waist and brought him back to her.
Aragorn smiled, and brought the elf he loved more than life itself right
up against him again.
"He'll find out sooner or later, you know." He whispered to her.
"I know," she replied, hugging him close to her. "But I'd rather have
him find out later than sooner."
"Me too, wennya, me too."
Arwen looked down, burying her face in his Elven tunic. Aragorn brought
her eyes to meet his once more. "I love you." He whispered to her,
before placing a soft, passionate kiss on her lips.
After they broke away, Arwen remained locked in his gaze. "Do you
really?" she whispered faintly.
"Yes," he replied, stroking her cheek with his sword-calloused hand.
"More than life itself."
A silver tear ran down her cheek, which he softly wiped away.
She brought her arms around his neck, and gave him a hug. Aragorn brought
her closer, stroking her silky smooth hair. After a time she looked him
again. Her blue eyes bared into his. "I love you." She whispered.
Aragorn kissed her, massaging his lips on hers. She moaned softly and
brought him closer to her. He then started kissing her neck and cheek,
and Arwen buried her hands in his hair.
After a time, Aragorn stopped kissing her and whispered in her pointed
ear, "Do you want to go somewhere beautiful?"
She nodded, smiling, and hugging him closer to her.
Aragorn then backed away from her, and said, "I have to lead you
blindfolded there, however."
Arwen untied her sash, and presented in to him, and turned around.
Aragorn placed the wide sash over her eyes and whispered, "Do you trust
me?"
"With my life." She replied instantly.
After Aragorn had made sure she couldn't see, he took her hand, and led
her away from the tree and bench, into the dark woods.

"Estel, where are we going?" Arwen demanded. It seemed like hours that
Aragorn had led her around these woods and she was growing a little
impatient about the place they were going.
"You'll see, Arwennya, you'll see." He replied, teasingly.
Finally he stopped, and went behind her. Lacing her hinds in his, he
said, "We're going to go over a river. The bridge is narrow so, you'll
have to be careful."
"Why can't I just take off the blindfold?"
"Because it's part of the surprise."
"Ok." She said, gripping his hands tighter.
"Step up." Aragorn told her. She did.
Arwen could then smell and hear running water.
"Walk forward, one step at a time. I'll guide you, just keep walking."
He felt her tense slightly, but she did step forward.
The bridge seemed to last forever. Finally he said, "We're at the
end." He jumped down ahead of her, and helped her down.
"Estel," Arwen said pleadingly. "Where are we going?"
As an answer, Aragorn lifted off the blindfold.
