Chapter 4:
" What have I done? What have I done?" thought Legolas while he wandered aimlessly through the Deep.
" Sir Legolas?"
" Yes Freda, what is it? " asked the elf happy to stop thinking of his terrible mistake for a while.
" I think we should marry. "
His eyes widened as he heard those words and his mind was immediately brought back to Eowyn.
" And why is that little one?"
" Because I love you and mama says you have to marry the person you love."
" Well you're mother is right but that person also has to love you with all his heart and you have to think very well about wanting to spend the rest of your life with that person. To live every day with the same person is not that easy you know."
" But I already live everyday with mama and Eothain"
" Yes but that is different Freda, don't worry you'll understand when you'll get older."
With that he walked away. He turned the corner and there he saw the last person he wanted to see at that moment: "Eowyn…"
He wanted to turn when she called out to him.
" Legolas! Wait!"
" Mylady I'm sorry about my actions before, I did not know what happened to me I …"
" Do you mean you didn't act out of love?"
He thought he might have heard wrongly but it seemed in her voice there was a trace of … Dissapointment?
" I ,… what?"
" I asked you if you acted out of love?"
" What did you believe it was?"
" Love"
" Well then why do you ask?"
" I love you Legolas" she blurted out.
" You what? Do you mean this?"
" Yes"
Legolas thought he could fight all the orcs in Mordor at that precise moment.
" Come" she said
She took his hand and led him back to the storeroom, there she kissed him and he began teasing her lips with his tongue until she allowed him access. Her mouth was sweet and warm, he let himself be swept over by an ocean of pleasure and for the moment nothing else mattered for him. Middle- Earth had gained two new lovers.
