Kili on the other hand had another problem. Before their unwanted guests arrived he could run in the morning as far as he wanted. He was used to going down the beach and running up to ten kilometers, to return home spent and focus on the job. His uncle hated weakness, and in their line of work weakness of body was not welcome. The gym was okay, but for the long run he wanted his beloved beach.

On one morning Kili woke up earlier than normal, it was barely dawning and he looked longingly at the beach. And then it hit him, those tourists were probably sleeping and the beach was all his to run to his limit. He put on his training clothes and rushed towards the gate.

"Where are you going?" Dwalin asked him seeing the boy ready for running.

"To the beach." Kili replied.

"The Boss said the beach is off limits until the tourists are here." Dwalin's voice was firm.

"They're sleeping, and I'm going crazy being locked up here." Kili replied.

Dwalin looked at the boy carefully, he understood the need for movement the boy had, and he understood the idea of running and freedom. He looked back towards the dark house at the edge of the beach.

"Come back in less than two hours." He told the boy. "And if the Boss asks I have no idea where you are."

"Thank you!" Kili smiled his huge wide smile and rushed out of the gate and towards the road leading to the beach.

Fili was finally easing down, he was aware of the surveillance his family was under but so far he didn't see any danger. The patrol would ride out twice a day and go into the woods and probably towards the town. There were always two people on guard watch at the beach, and he also noticed cameras surveying the two roads leading to the house. He managed to walk up to the house completely undetected; it was a beautiful mansion, surrounded by a stone wall, very secure and very heavily guarded. Fili was a pro so he just took in all the details and sneaked away easily. Within days he worked out their system, he knew all the weak spots, and soon he played the game of avoiding them. He knew which rooms in their house were safe, which path to take, where he could walk safely on the beach and where they could easily see him. He loved the mornings best. The sun rise over the beach, and the noise of the waves crashing into the sand. He would sneak out in the morning run around five kilometers, then he would stay a bit at a beautiful cove take a swim and watch the sunrise and run back in the forest.

Kili rushed towards his favorite spot on the beach, to catch the sun rise over the beautiful sea. It was already pretty hot so he could feel the sweat go down his back; he rushed even more to get there on time. It was still dark and only a gentle light could be seen on the horizon.

As soon as he reached his spot he got stripped naked and without looking around he just jumped into the water.

Fili glanced at the source of the sudden noise ruining his alone moment. It was evident someone came to his cove. He just sat in his place and watched as the sun was slowly rising over the horizon. Slowly he could make out the shape of a person swimming in the sea, and the callously abandoned clothes on the sand. He briefly considered getting up and leaving, but then he decided he was there first. So he just sat and waited for the swimming person to notice him.

Kili was so relived to finally be able to swim around to his heart's content that he lost focus on reality. He decided to get out and dry out in the morning sun; he reached the beach and looked back at the see not paying attention to his surroundings.

Fili watched the beautiful young boy get out of the water and without a care in the world he lay on the beach to dry off in the sun. He was slim and tall, with long dark wavy hair. He caught sight of a firm lean body, muscular ass and tights. The boy was young but there was a trail of chest hairs climbing his chest. He was dead gorgeous, and for the first time Fili felt an insatiable wave of lust overcome him. He had experience with both boys and girls, especially when he put on his uniform, but boys were really his thing. This boy was simply as beautiful as the sun rise in front of him.

Kili was so thrilled with the sudden stolen freedom he forgot all about being careful. As he was slowly putting on his clothes he glanced to his right to see two beautiful blue eyes staring at him. He was so startled he wasn't alone; he didn't even realize he was standing half naked in front of a stranger. An extremely hot stranger. He looked like a golden god, with enticing blue eyes, blond hair and neatly trimmed beard. The man was shirtless, and Kili could see the perfectly shaped muscles and toned well built body. He just stared at the man speechless. He noticed a tattoo reaching to the strangers back, and he took in the light mocking smile. Suddenly it hit him that he was naked in front of a stranger so quickly he rushed to put his clothes back on.

Fili just stared at the boy, and when his eyes finally caught the boy's eyes he was lost into those deep brown orbs. The boy was looking at him as if mesmerized, like a rabbit going to run on instinct any minute now. No words where said, the boy just gave him one more glance with some kind of fear and curiosity at the same time, and then the boy just rushed along the beach. Fili didn't need to ask where the boy heading, there was only one place he could have come from.

Kili returned home in record time, he knew he got caught but there was no way uncle would find out, so he just rushed back to his room. He felt like his whole body was on fire. The way that man was looking at him, those deep blue eyes and smile made Kili feel a weakness like never before. He regretted not saying anything to the man; he just wanted to feel close to him. He wanted so much… The boy grabbed his penis and without even noticing he began stroking himself thinking back to the unexpected meeting. He never got much experience but he simply wasn't really interested. This person was the first who inspired such a feeling in his body, and he was wondering how the man would react knowing that Kili was fulfilling his needs thinking of those beautiful blue eyes. Blue eyes like the sea at dawn.

Fili was really amused with the events of the morning. It seemed the firm defense of the mansion had its gaps, and someone was trying to slip in and slip out, from inside the stone prison. He briefly wondered about the gorgeous boy, about his deep chocolate eyes. The way he ran away clearly indicated he wasn't supposed to be out, but it didn't seem he was held against his will. He wondered if he would see the boy again, but later realized with a tingling of regret that it was improbable.

Kili rarely took guard duties, but Bofur had to go to town yet again, and Dwalin had to go as well. Everyone else was busy so Kili had no other choice. He spent a boring afternoon watching the beach and tourists having fun. He wanted to see the man again, but there was no trace of him, he saw a small man sit on the terrace and write something on his laptop, he saw four boys more or less his age have fun on the beach, but there was no sight of the tempting stranger. He glanced at the book left there probably by Gloin, and instead of gawking at the people and beach he began reading William Underhill's newest book.

Fili walked up to the guard tower surprised it was empty for a change, he saw two cars leave out of schedule, so he sneaked up towards the house. He was wondering what was on the other side, and what kind of business was going on in there that needed to be guarded so heavily, but decided against doing anything more to find out. He couldn't get the kid out of his head, but he just had to leave it to fate.

Bilbo was amused with Fili, he knew his son well, but it seemed the war depression was finally over. Just two weeks and Fili was back to joking, he was more serious then when he was a teenager, but the spark in his eyes was back. So Bilbo decided to get the last part of therapy behind them, he told Fili to take his laptop for a while and to write down his stories. Fili had always been a good story teller, and his war experiences were anti-war and pro humane. Bilbo wanted to push him to leave something behind. So after days of being haunted by Bilbo, Fili found himself sitting on the terrace with Bilbo's laptop and under the glares of his foster siblings, and probably guards of that house, he sat down and wrote what he wanted to erase from his memory.

Kili looked up with tears in his eyes, the book was driving him crazy, and he felt so sad reading the story, so for a moment the failed to notice something changed. Then he focused on the terrace of the house and he realized that in the spot in which the man sat before, now somebody else was sitting. He saw a part of a tattoo on a muscular male arm, and the person was clearly focused on the laptop. The short man was sitting opposite and with an encouraging smile watched the handsome blond use the laptop. Soon the four boys joined, and it was evident they were joking and laughing. Kili felt a ting of pain, he felt so lonely and he just wished his life was normal and that he could join those people and spend some time with the extremely handsome man.

"So what's so interesting everyone wants to be on guard duty all of a sudden?" His uncle voice made the boy jump in his spot. Thorin immediately noticed the blush on his nephew's face. He reached out and took the binoculars from Kili. He glanced at the beach and later to the terrace of the neighboring house. He took in the sight of six people relaxing near the pool, the boys talking vividly and young man writing something on a laptop, and a very short cute man resting on a chair.

He glanced back to Kili. "They will leave soon; they rented the house for two months only." He gave him the binoculars back. "As long as you don't tell them anything about what we're doing here, and don't bring them here, you can try to make some friends." Thorin told the surprised boy.

He saw a light come into his eyes.

"Just remember to be careful." Thorin told him.

"I will!" Kili's wide smile was the best heartwarming reward Thorin could ever get. He handed Thorin the book he found with a huge smile.

"Your guard duty ends in two hours." Thorin noticed grimly and left taking the book with him.
