I own nothing
The next day, as promise, Legolas has shown Kagome around the elven kingdom. She had learn many things from Legolas about the elf culture and knew why they no longer live with the human race. As for Legolas, he had learn a lot about Kagome and why she lives with demons. He had also learn that she was an immortal from a cruse jewel that's know within her. He did frown when she told him that se is engaged to her Lords half brother but he had a feeling that she isn't in love with her soon to be mate as much as she leads on. When ever she said his name Legolas saw the pain and sadness in her eyes again. He didn't like that. He wanted to see her smile and filled with joy.
So he decided to show he a special place he found a few days ago. They were deep in the woods and Kagome knew she could trust Legolas but she couldn't help but wonder where they were going. They reach to a beautiful big waterfall and went behind the water where there was a cave. They went inside and once they were out of the darkness Kagome found herself awe. What she saw was like in a book she read in school called "The Secret Garden". There were flowers everywhere and they were so beautiful. Kagome felt her inner child racing through her and ran into the field of flowers. Legolas couldn't help but smile at her reaction and watch her enjoy herself.
"So your wife doesn't mind your showing me around?" Kagome asked after picking some flowers.
"I have no wife." He said
Kagome halted from picking a blue Lilly and felt embarrass. "I'm sorry I thought that woman you were with was..."
"Tauriel is married to one of the captains of the guards." Legolas chuckled "I have yet to fine someone of my liking." He said looking at her in the eye, walking slowly towards her. "I have thought I wouldn't be able to fine someone for me."
He then picked the flower she was going to pick and handed it to her. She smiled with a blush and took it from him. After she smelled the flower she went off to explore some more. He was happy to see her smile again but something still bother him. He wanted to know why it pains her to talk about her mate.
Kagome,... I know this might be painful for you but I was wondering why I asked about your fiancé you were sad?" He asked "Is it because he wasn't able to come?" He would understand that. Many times he had seen Tauriel sad and worry when her husband goes away for business.
Kagome face sadden again and froze I her spot. She knew she had to say something soon or who knows what will happen.
"We met when we were young. At first neither of us were sure how we felt for each other. He was a two timer back then with his ex's. She explained "I was always foolish to forgive him. When he finally chose me I thought he had change and things will be different, especially when he proposed to me." She paused to look engagement ring. "But, that was two years and he hasn't been around me at all or said anything about the wedding. He doesn't know it but I found out what he's been doing the whole time. It's true, people never change." She let a few tears drop down her cheeks.
Legolas knew what she meant and it made his blood boil. He clench his fist so tighten that they were turning white. He couldn't believe that anyone will cheat on someone as sweet and beautiful as Kagome. Once he saw her shaking from trying to hold her tears back he brought her into his arms and hold her tight. He didn't know why but he just wanted to comfier her and hold her. When he felt her in his arms the feelings he had before were getting stronger than before. He knew he shouldn't have these feeling for her but he couldn't help it. Especially when she fit so perfectly in his arm. In his mine they were prefect for each other.
As she was starting to clam down she couldn't help but enjoy warm and comfier Legolas has given her. She looked up at him and she saw him staring straight at her with emotion she hasn't seen in a long time. Without them knowing their faces were lending in close to each other. Their lips were so close that they could feel each other breath against their skin. Sadly, the moment was ruin when a bird flew out of the bushes and snap them out of their trance.
"Its getting late, we should be heading back. My brother would want to know where I am." She said
She got out of his hold to picked up the flowers she dropped and headed back to the entrance. Legolas stood there alone for a few minutes to gather his thoughts of what happen. He knew what he was thinking was wrong and was no different from what her mate was doing. But the moment their lips almost touch he no longer cared. He looked back at Kagome who was looking back at him. When their eyes met again they knew there was something between them. Heat? Love? Lust? Whatever this flame is between them they know they can't hold it in forever.
