The Hobbit: Mud Fights and Confessions

The company had set up camp for the day since it was deemed that the path was too dangerous from the heavy rainfall that kept them all soaked to the bone for three days prior.
Today the rain had stopped, and left the ground muddy and the air cold

Bilbo had been given his bowl of lunch but noticed as he sat down to eat that Fili and Kili were missing. He knew that if they missed out on lunch they'd be more of a pain than usual, so he Bilbo Baggins but his bowl down with a sigh and went out to find the two trouble makers.

Fili sighed as he followed his brother a little ways away from the camp, he was hungry and in no mood to play whatever game his brother had come up with. Though he was glad that the wretched rain had finally stopped. Looking around he saw that Kili was nowhere to be seen.
"Kili? Where did you go?" asked Fili trying to see where his younger brother had gone.
The answer he got was in the form of a mud ball and it hit him square in the face, sputtering and wiping clumps of it from his eyes and mouth he saw that Kili was sticking his head out from behind a tree with a large grin on his face.
"What was that for?!" he yelled.

Kili just chuckled and sent another mud ball flying,
"It's just a bit of fun Fili! We won't have many chances like this later on."

Fili had successfully dodged the next mud ball and rolled over to the nearest tree for shelter. There he amassed a rather large mud ball and crept up behind his brother and dumped it on his head making sure it got down his shirt on both the front and back.
"Haa! I suppose your right dear brother."

Kili had yelped as Fili had bombarded him with a rather large mud ball, though he was prepared himself as Fili darted past him in order to get back to his base tree. They hadn't seen nor heard the poor hobbit come upon them and as Kili launched his next mud ball it landed squarely on the one person they least intended it too.

Bilbo had heard them laughing, He knew that he should not go to them because those two laughing meant nothing but trouble on who ever interrupted them, the smart thing to do was get them to come to him. He knew this, but their laughter was so addicting, and before he knew it he walked into the clearing and found himself with a face full of mud, and his ass on the ground. Slowly he wiped the mud of his face and glared at the two idiots.
"Lunch is ready." He stated as he stood up, watching them as they walked over. His annoyance grew with them as he noticed the smug looks on their faces and the clear amusement in his eyes.
"But I guess it could wait." Before they could react he grabbed a hand full of mud in both hands and then smeared it on their faces.

Kili and Fili were slightly horrified that is was their burglar that had taken the mud ball to the face, but only slightly 'cause if it was Thorin then they'd both be chewed out and then dragged back to the camp by their ears, at least with Bilbo they'd just get an annoyed look and maybe nagged at. They both had their smug smiles plastered to their faces and Kili started to chuckle at the sight of the halfling with mud all over his face as they walked over to him in attempt to help him up and follow Bilbo back to camp for some lunch.

What they had not planed for was him joining in on their fun and smear mud all over their faces.

Both of the brothers sputtered and tried to wipe their faces clean with their sleeves, but it only served on dirtying themselves more.
"Ah so you do have some fun in you Mister Boggins eh?" A large smile spreading on Kili's face as he intentionally mispronounced Bilbo's last name, he rather liked the hobbit and seeing him fluster and stutter or even get mad at them always made him feel warm.
It was also a nice change from the other dwarfs who sometimes did look down on him and Fili since they were still young and seen as teens instead of adults.

But with Bilbo it was different; he treated everyone of them fairly even with the slight mothering he had adopted. On top of it all, their burglar has shown that he didn't really care that Kili only had a bit of stubble on his chin, or that his hair was braided.

"It's Baggins for the umptenth ti-" He didn't even get to finish his sentence before they tackled him to the ground. Soon he was laughing loudly as they started to tickle him. He was thankfully able to get some wiggle room and move his arms around so he could better defend himself. Throwing mud and pushing them away,

They wrestled until they were caked in mud from head to toe.

"Bluh!" Bilbo rolled away from them finally sputtering and spitting the mud out of his mouth before trying to stand up, his soaked and mud covered clothes weighing him down and only served in helping him fall over.

Fili and Kili just laughed as Bilbo tried to clear his face from the mud and to stand up, only to fall over again due to the heaviness of the mud caked on his clothes, unlike them Bilbo was clearly not used to such things. Fili looked at his brother their eyes meeting sharing a silent conversation with themselves. The majority of the company would swear that they had some telepathic ability.

"You know, before we head back to go eat we should probably clean ourselves up. I saw that there were some hot springs a little further a ways from here, what do you think brother?" asked Kili loudly before standing up and creeping towards Bilbo, a mischievous smile plastered to his lips.

"Yes I think your right dear brother, we should clean up before heading back. Least we want to be scolded by uncle." said Fili in agreement.

Before Bilbo had even the chance to say anything much less do anything, Fili and Kili had grabbed him by his arms and dragged him towards the hot springs as he stuggled and yelled at them to let go; knowing full well that this could end up in a disaster for him.

When they got there they just simply tossed him into the water, clothes and all.
The springs weren't all that deep, and Fili and Kili had started to undress before jumping in as well, helping a sputtering hobbit to a sort of stone bench.
"We must get you cleaned up Mister Boggins." said Kili smiling widely.

"It's BAGGINS!"
