Disclaimer: Don't own, Tolkien is wonderful, everyone praise him.

This is basically Legolas musing over someone whilst they sleep. Involves a little bit of one-sided slash (m/m) if this bugs you then leave........all homophobics gone? Good now onto the story.

My Feelings For You.......

Light slowly dimmed over the hilltop as eight of the Fellowship slept in deep, peaceful slumber, nightmares not plaguing their sleep nor disrupting their dreams. Despite the calm of the night Legolas, the Elvin prince, sat on a nearby tree stump, unable to sleep. His eyes scanned the area for any signs of danger before glancing over the rest of the Fellowship. Gimli and Aragorn slept away from the others for separate reasons, Gimli, to allow himself to retain some of his dwarf pride which he was losing the more time he spent with the young elf, Aragorn......to keep himself away from the others, never to allow them to discover how he felt deep inside. He tried to hide it keep it locked away as a secret, but Legolas saw it every time he looked into the grey of Aragorn's mournful eyes, the pain which Aragorn tried to hide. Yet whenever questioned Aragorn would put on a mask of happiness and laugh off the concern like it meant nothing. And whenever Aragorn put himself through that pain of trying to hide his true feelings, Legolas felt his heart ache for the way his companion acted.

"Why oh why do you act this way?", Legolas whispered, watching Aragorn sleep for a few more minutes, complete silence surrounding them. Legolas stepped off of the tree stump and moved to sit at Aragorn's side. He reached out and stroked Aragorn's unruly brown hair, before pulling his hand back and again drifting into a sea of thought.

"Can't you see you're hurting u......us.....me?", Legolas whispered softly, "Can't you just let us in?" He wiped away the tears emerging in his eyes and dragged himself back to his cover and settled underneath it, hoping he could grab a few hours sleep.
