Side by side with his dwarf
The wedding was over and now of cores came the after calibrations. legolas, Gimli, Frodo, Sam, pippin and merry were all staying in Rivendell where the couple were wed. It had been a beautiful ceremony but of cores only the best for the elf princess and king. The party had been very much a blur to merry and pippin who drank copious amounts of ail in till they couldn't stand. Of cores Frodo and Sam had helped them to their rooms, dragging them along the floor.
Legolas and Gimli had laughed and talked as they always did, but something was different in what they were talking about, their stories had mainly been about battles and slaying orcs, but tonight their talks were more personal talking about their families and interests.
"oh yes are dwarf ladies are quite a sight" Gimli laughed
"what do you mean Gimli?" legolas replied, Gimli just laughed harder now finding it hard to breath he calmed himself down enough to tell legolas the rest "well legolas dwarf ladies are far from the prettiest of creatures not like young elflings like yourself..." Gimli stated he was a little tipsy so it came out a bit slurred so legolas let him off he knew Gimli always said stupid things when he was drunk... but legolas couldn't deny the feeling of joy he got when Gimli said it.
"What about elf ladies legolas... are they as sweet as I have heard?" Gimli questioned shaking Legolas from his thoughts " I wouldn't know..." legolas relied in a soft quiet voice.
"What do you mean laddey... I'm sure the fine prince of Mirkwood would of had a few lady friends." Gimli chuckled, Legolas face reddening, what and awkward question to ask, no legolas had not... unlike many legolas had focused more on fighting and honing his skills in archery to become the best in middle earth, so he didn't have time for " lady friends" as Gimli put it.
"I did not Gimli... I had better things consumed my time with." He spoke clear, a booming laugh came from Gimli who was clutching his stomach and bending forward "oh my legolas... AHAHAH... sorry it's just I've heard a lot of stories from the young elf ladies about you I guess you have a lot of admires."
Legolas was about to speak when Aragorn came other patting his two friends on the back. They chatted for awhile Gandalf had joined them for a short time in till it was late and everyone was retiring to bed.
"Legolas gimli you room is the 2nd floor to the right" Aragorn gave a small grin about to walk off when gimli spoke "don't you mean rooms?" he questioned
Aragorn turned around and smiled "I am very sorry Gimli but every where is full you will have to share with legolas... don't worry there are 2 beds." Legolas gulped Gimli looked at Aragorn who was already half way across the room going to his own chambers, smiling to himself... all part of the plan he mused.
