Sincerely, Lord Elrond
Chapter 2
Legolas dwelled peacefully- but sadly- in Imaldris for a time. That was before Lady Arwen rode in with an injured Hobbit upon her horse. Lord Elrond immediately took the young Halfling into care, expertly healing him and allowing to remain in the peaceful security of Rivendell, alike to his uncle many years before.
Legolas sighed as he sat in the great garden Elrond, pondering the recent events of his life. It was at that moment that Arwen decided to pay the prince a visit. "Prince Legolas, there is someone here who would like to see you."
"Who is it?" He inquired, eyes adrift in the vast sea of loss.
"Why don't you go see for yourself, the visitor awaits you in the courtyard." The hopeful smile on her face suggested a certain someone, but the hint was completely lost on the exhausted prince.
"Fine, thank you." He sped away, unbrushed hair flying out behind him. Meanwhile, Arwen remained alone among the trees, smirking as the Elf dashed away.
A man stood in the courtyard, patiently awaiting an attack.
But it did not come, for Legolas had stopped dead in his tracks when he saw the man.
"Hello, Las." The man says, smiling.
"Estel?"
"Yes?" Both remain still, both overjoyed to see the other.
"Valar, you're alive!" Suddenly, the Elf launched himself into the man's arms, weeping. He rested his head on the Dunedan's shoulder and closed his tired eyes. "Oh, Estel, I thought you were gone."
"Would I ever leave without saying goodbye. Come on, Las, you know me better."
"I know." The Elf said, yawning.
"Come, you need rest." Concern was evident in Aragorn's tone as he commanded his best friend.
"One one condition... you promise to remain in the room and not injure yourself in any way." The Silvan Elf demands back, the circumstances now becoming 'imperative'.
"Alright, I will try." This earns the human a hard glare.
"You're lucky you're a good warrior, Estel, otherwise you would have been gone a long time ago."
"Shut up, Elf." Aragorn then punches Legolas in the shoulder. Of course, he gets punched back; but, honestly, the human had missed all the punches and slaps Las dealt out.
After all, that's what a brother's for.
