Don't worry--no week to wait…I love my mischievous Jaisia and there's still a lot of things I can do with my group…Here's chapter 2!!!!
Chapter 2--Wet and Wild
Jaisia led Legolas up and down the many paths through the garden, laughing. They charged around a lovely pond surrounded by exotic flowers and filled with colorful fish. Just then Arwen and Aragorn stepped out in front of Jaisia from another path.
Arwen held her two year old daughter; Sandi and Jaisia knew she couldn't stop in time so she swerved to the left. She managed to avoid Arwen, but her equine shoulder slammed into Aragorn who was flung right into the pond with thunderous splash.
Legolas was further back so he was able to stop. Oops, we're both in for it, he thought. He wondered if he could disappear before the trouble started.
Arwen glanced at her husband then started giggling. The King was now crowned with a Lilly pad and a rather large bullfrog. She managed to choke them back. "Are you unharmed, my love?" she asked.
The bullfrog abandoned it's perch as Aragorn snatched the Lilly pad off and tossed it into the water. "Aye, but a certain centaur and elf may not be in a moment," he growled.
"I'm truly sorry, sugar. Are you hurt?" Jaisia asked.
Aragorn stood and left the water, carefully avoiding the flowers best he could. "Nay, no harm done," he said.
"Good," Jaisia said then laughed which set of Legolas and Arwen, even Sandi chortled. "You looked so foolish!!!" Jaisia said.
Sandi noticed Legolas and smiled happily. She leaned toward him and held out her arms. Arwen smiled. "She wants her uncle," she said.
"I'm soaked--" Legolas said. "Because someone doused me with a bucket of water."
"It's a warm day, take her or she'll cry," Arwen said.
Legolas came over and took the baby who promptly grabbed a fistful of his hair and tugged. "Ouch, gently, little one," he said. Sandi began sucking on one tiny fist contentedly.
"It's time for her nap, why don't you take her to the nursery while I get Elessar cleaned up," Arwen said.
Legolas nodded and left, heading for the castle, talking softly to Sandi.
"He's so good with the little one--Sandi adores her uncle," Arwen said.
Jaisia looked at Aragorn. "I didn't mean to run into you, I'll be more careful next time," she said.
"That's all right," Aragorn said. He put his arm around Arwen. "I believe we have things to discuss in our chambers, My Queen," he said. "See you at the ball, Jaisia."
"Indeed, until tonight, Jaisia," Arwen said. She and her husband strolled off. Jaisia went to the guest room to prepare for that night. It was to be a very elegant ball with many people of importance attending. She could hardly wait!!!
Heh, love playing around with Jaisia.(Hope I'm not boring anyone!!) Like it--Let me know!!! R/R!!!
