Not even a couple minutes following my return to the room, there was a knock on the door. I hadn't yet moved from my spot and well, to be honest, I wasn't in any sort of mood to let whoever was at the door inside. There was nothing that made any sense to me and the man I had talked to earlier didn't help much either. Neither did Tauriel with pushing me into the room.

Bitch.

Another knock on the door followed and groaning, I helped myself up from the floor and ran a hand through my hair before slowly opening the door. I only opened it to where I could see the man at the door. He looked much like the man from earlier but more youthful and lighter in expression. His long pale blonde hair was pulled back in a half updo from his face. To be blunt, he was attractive. The youthful face screamed pretty boy to me.

He was quiet as his dark blue eyes moved around as to study me. He stayed that way for a good minute or so until I snapped," Are you planning on standing there without even talking to me?"

His eyes darted up to me and made a face at me. My patience was running thin so I closed the door on him when he caught onto the knob and opened it back up to let himself in. I stepped back and looked at him in shock as he turned to me. I wasn't sure what idea he had in his mind, but I came prepared incase it wouldn't end with bad intentions.

Finally, and very unexpectedly, he spoke up," Perhaps a little rude to not invite me inside, yes?"

What the…holy…oh my...huh?

I folded my arms and cocked my head to the side. "Oh, and it's not rude to stand and stare at someone in silence?" I shot back. He furrowed his eyesbrows and stepped closer.

"I was waiting for you to greet me," he replied forming a small smile. "You could have greeted first."

"But I'm not the one who knocked on the door," I spat. Rolling my eyes, I walked past Elfy when he asked," What is your name?"

I stopped for a moment and turned around. He stood where he was with curiosity in his eyes. Slowly, I responded," Felicity." I sat down at the edge of the bed and Elfy remarked," I don't believe I have ever heard that name before."

"Well what's your name?" I asked. Elfy stepped closer and said," Legolas Greenleaf. Son of Thranduil."

Tolkien really knew how to create names. They sound like fucking fairies.

Legolas questioned," Have you met my father?" I let out a snarky "Ha!" and rolled my eyes. Legolas's face became puzzled.

"If you think I'm rude, maybe you should pay attention as to how your father treats guests, " I retorted. The very thought of him made my skin crawl. His prissy attitude only increased my desire to punch him in his pale Elf face.

"My father is defensive when it comes to strangers," Legolas gently stated. His face turned to slight embarrassment at the mention of it and when I took notice of it, I could see the father-son relationship unfold. I didn't say anything because I didn't feel it was right to nor was I comfortable enough with Legolas to where we could vent to one another.

Legolas then added," He does not want any harm to come to his kingdom."

"Hey, your buddy Tauriel brought me in here," I reminded him. "I was just as scared to be here as he was to have me here."

Without realizing it, I tucked some hair behind my ear and Legolas noted," Your ears." I looked at him when it was then I realized that my ears had become an elf's.

"Your father pointed it out earlier," I sighed.

"Are you from Rivendell?" Legolas asked hopeful.

What the heck is it with everyone assuming I'm from Rivendell? What is it anyway?

"Yeah no," I shook my head. "See, this is my problem - I'm not even from Middle Earth. I'm from Utah which is in a place called Earth. Sounds impossible, right? Well it's true. I have absolutely no clue as to how I got here and what happened, but I woke up here and now I don't how I can get back home."

I groaned and fell back on the bed. I leaned up to see what Legolas's reaction was and he didn't show any kind of emotion. He was blank-faced. A pause followed.

"You think I'm a nut case," I assumed. Legolas furrowed his eyebrows and remarked," 'A nut case'? What do you mean?"

The lack of knowledge of sayings in Mirkwood is something I still to this day never understood.

"You think I'm crazy," I corrected. Legolas smiled a bit.

"Not necessarily crazy, but perhaps odd," Legolas chuckled.

"Oh honey," I sighed shaking my head," get in the back of the long line of other people who think that."

Legolas laughed at me and then shook his head. He started making his way towards the door when he looked back to me and said the moment before he left," You are an interesting thing."

About two and a half hours later of pondering what I could do to get back home, Tauriel popped her head in my room.

"King Thranduil would like to word with you," Tauriel announced.

I turned my head to the left and to the right and then looked back at Tauriel, pointing my finger at my chest.

"Conmigo?" I asked her ("With me" in Spanish.) The idea of acting like an ass to her was hard to pass up. Tauriel darted her eyes at me, unamused.

"He doesn't like to be kept waiting," Tauriel grumbled. I smirked at her.

"Then perhaps we'll give it some time," I told her.

"Now," Tauriel commanded. I put my hands up in defense and walked out of my room.

"I'm walking, I'm walking."

I threw my hands down and followed behind Tauriel back into the room I was in earlier. Thranduil was sitting on his throne, his dark eyes staring me down with hated all over them. His posture was immaculate and he kept still as I drew closer. Legolas stood beside him, standing tall but soft in his emotions.

When I stopped in front of Thranduil, he rose from his throne and looked down upon me.

"There are matters concerning your current living situation," Thranduil began. I rolled my eyes and defended," Which is not my fault, I'd like to point out."

"No one is blaming you," Thranduil said. It was unlike him to say such a thing but I proceeded to let it go. He continued," Because you have the appearance to fit in with the elves and because you have nowhere to go, I will open a room in my kingdom for you to stay in until we figure out your situation."

Although I was caught off guard, I did feel relieved that I wouldn't be thrown out into the middle of who-knows-where in Middle Earth. I wouldn't admit it but I was willing to do whatever it was they wanted me to do in order for me to stay.

"There are, however, conditions that you must agree too," Thranduil added.

Of course there are.

I sighed," And they are?"
