It was a peaceful early morning in Rivendel, nothing disturbed the silence
but the sweet song of the birds, trees, wind and far away, the waterfalls.
Estel opened his eyes when the first ray of sunlight warmed his face, let
him know that it was time to get up. Stretching lazily he sighed contently
for it was the day his brothers and best friend had promised him to take him
to a secret spot they had discovered in one of their hunts as soon as they
finished with their duties.
According to the three elven princes, it was one of the most beautiful lakes
they had ever seen, for even as it looked like an ordinary lake, when you
got closer you could see the rocks that surrounded it shine like crystals.
It was hidden behind five huge trees and the human was eager to meet that
place.
Estel knew that this was the day. He knew that their brothers and Legolas
had this day free: no councils, no studding... nothing. Smiling he dressed
and went down stairs for breakfast, but for his surprise he only found his
father with Glorfindel and Erestor at the table.
"Good morning my son" Elrond greet him as the two other elven lords smiled
at him.
"Morning father" the young human said while he took a sit next to the Lord
of Imladris "Where are my brothers and Legolas?" he asked not able to
contain himself any minute longer.
"Still sleeping" Elrond answered sighing deeply and shocking his head. No
good, Estel thought, they certainly had done something.
"It seems that they had fun last night" Glorfindel added when Elrond didn't
say anything. "They arrived very late"
"Or very early, depending on the point of view" Said Erestor smiling amused.
"Few hours before dawn"
"But... but they said they will spend the day with me" Estel complained.
"I am afraid that will not be possible Estel, you have history lesson with
Glorfindel today" Elrond shocked his head.
"But father they are always doing Elbereth knows what. Today they have no
duties, or so they told me" he said the last whispering. It was hard to tell
when the princes indeed had finished their duties or when they had decided
that they had finished. "And I'm really are old enough to still having
history lessons! Maybe for elves I'm but a child, but by human standards I
AM a grown man"
"A young man" Glorfindel corrected "And that have nothing to do with the
lessons. Even your brothers and Legolas, who are considered young but of
age, still have to study"
"Let's do something" Elrond said looking at the disappointment on his
younger son's face "If you can awake those three crazy elflings before
midday you have the day free, but if you can't you will have your lessons.
Do you agree, my friend?" The lord asked Glorfindel, who was responsible of
said lessons.
"Sure" the blond elf said.
"Excellent! Thanks a lot" and almost choking with the last piece of bread,
Estel left the room.
"I just hope that the young one survives. You know how dangerous is to awake
those three" Erestor said amused.
"Yes, I am very aware of that as well I am aware that it will be almost
impossible, but at least he would train avoiding what they will throw to
him" Elrond chuckled.

*****

Estel went upstairs as fast as he could, that was pretty fast, he knew he
will manage to get the princes awake, even if he knew how difficult it could
be.
His first stop was on his friend's room. He slammed door making so much
noise that one could thing that an army of orcs, instead of a human, was
entering to the room. Legolas was peacefully asleep as if he knew who was
doing all that noise and so didn't care to even focus his gaze.
The prince, Aragorn noticed, was still dressed in his day's cloths and his
hair was still braided.
After several minutes and curses, for the way from the door to the bed was
really dangerous because of the prince's mess, he stood next to the blond
prince.
"Really, I can't understand how can he be so disorganized" the human thought
massaging his left leg that was hurt with one of Legolas' sharp knifes that
happened to be in an odd angle on a chair after he almost go flying through
the window because he stumbled with one of Legolas' tunics that went out of
nowhere.
Sighing he shocked his friend and backed as fast as he could expecting a
blow or something alike. Instead the prince only tuned around. Sighing
again, Estel shocked him harder but the prince just ignored him murmuring
something about... giggling stars?
"Whatever" Estel said chuckling, he always found more proves supporting
Mithrandir's nickname 'crazy son of Thranduil' "He is almost awake"

An hour had passed and the only change was that Legolas was now curled in a
ball. Sleeping peacefully. Even the curtains were now fully opened and the
sunlight entered freely.
"Well, everyone who says that I am not a patient person can eat his words
now" Estel said aloud "Anyway, I'd heard that Legolas became quite ferocious
when someone wake him up if he hadn't sleep enough, but he is quite
peaceful" But what he didn't know was that Legolas aggressiveness showed
when he got annoyed at the constant attempts of waking him up. Estel had
tried everything to wake the elf up, but everything had failed.
"Wait, I haven't tried..." and clearing his throat he started singing a
cheerful elven song, but been a human as he was, with his voice not so
trained yet, the melody wasn't pleasant at all. Legolas' eyes focused in few
seconds.
"Estel stop that!"
"Morning!" the human said cheerily
"Night" and the elf turned around, his eyes unfocused again.
"Wha- I can't believe this!" he started singing again
"Estel!"
"Wake up!" but again the elf was asleep. And again Estel started singing.
This happened for about fifteen minutes until the elf suddenly stood up on
the other side of the bed from where his friend was and after closing the
curtains, he turned to his friend holding a frying pan and he pointed it to
the human.
"Stop singing that song, or I'll bash you with this frying pan!" Legolas
shouted
"Where did you get THAT thing?" Estel was really astonished
"Trust me, you don't want to know"
"You might be right. Anyway, now that you are up..."
"I'm going to sleep again" Legolas finished laying down on the bed.
"No way! Remember the song"
"Remember the frying pan" sighing Estel turned around to leave.
"I'll wake the twins first, and then we will wake him up" he thought aloud
"but since I left all my patience of a week here, I think I'll just throw
them water on their face"
"If you walk that way, you'll be sorry tomorrow" the muffled voice of
Legolas' made him stop "for I only menace the people with knifes, arrows
or... frying pans" he chuckled "but the twins throw things. Every kind of
things." when Estel turned to say something the elf 'again' was already
asleep.
"I wonder what they did last night that tired them so"


*****
The twins shared room even if the house of the Lord of Imladris had more
than enough rooms. It had two beds that, as Estel discovered when he was a
child, could or couldn't be occupied by the same twin. Some times he went
looking at Elladan and approached to the bed where he had been sleeping the
night before only to discover that it was Elrohir who was sleeping in it and
vice versa.
Following Legolas' counsel about the water, he instead took the pillows
from them as he shouted them to wake up. If he thought that with the pillows
far away of the twins he will be save, he couldn't be more wrong and so he
found himself listening to identical shouts "how can they shout the same
things? they are asleep!" he thought trying to get out of the room without
being hit with cups of glass, books, boots, candles, two knifes, a flute
and... a fraying pan?
"What in the name of the Valar were they doing last night?" he thought now
freaked out when he at last managed to get out of their room alive. "Maybe I
don't want to know... Oh Elbereth! Know I sound like my father!"

*****
" Estel! You are alive" Glorfindel greeted him amused when the young human
entered the library few minutes after midday. "I assume you didn't
succeeded" he added putting the book he was holding in its place.
"No comments, I fail this time, but the next..." he grinned impishly.
"That is a positive attitude, " the elf said turning and indicating to sit
down and then he sat next to him "And it is not necessary a failure if you
learned something"
"Oh yes, that I did." Estel said ironically "I learned that my best friend
is really crazy; I learned that my brothers are so co-dependant that they
even think the same while sleeping and I learned that I'm more like my
father with each day" Glorfindel laughed.
"That last thing is not that bad"
"No comments" Estel pouted "But with all this a question appeared, it is
really bothering me and I was thinking if you can help me"
"I will try"
"What In Elbereth's name were they doing last night?"
"I'm afraid that that, my young friend, is going to be one of the great
mysteries of Middle Earth"
