okay so considering I had this weird dream last night after I had been questioning if there would be coffee this morning...and in that dream, Erestor was shot and then tells me, " When you wake, you will find the answer." Then I wake up and the coffee pot was bare (GRRRR), this chapter may actually not make any sense lol
CHAPTER 4
**END FLASHBACK**
Cuthavion smiled.
" Then what happened?"
Melpomaen leaned back in his chair.
**FLASHBACK**
Melpomaen finished dressing and went to the evening meal, which in fact was a feast for his arrival. He saw Erestor sitting in his usual seat, but something was different. The Advisor was smiling and not just smiling to himself, he was smiling at Lindir. From what Melpomaen could tell, the two were in a conversation. From what he could hear it was about their mutual encounters with Elrohir. Lindir laughed and then caught sight of Melpomaen. Erestor followed Lindir's gaze. When he saw Melpomaen, he smiled.
" Mel, come sit with us."
Melpomaen nodded and took the seat on the other side of Lindir. Lindir turned to Melpomaen.
" How have you enjoyed Imladris thus far?"
Melpomaen smiled.
" I have enjoyed it much. Especially the library and it's ruler."
Lindir burst out laughing. Erestor cocked an eyebrow.
" Are you referring to me?"
Melpomaen grinned, then nodded. Erestor looked at Lindir who was still laughing.
" It was not that funny."
Lindir wiped the tears from his eyes.
" It was so."
Melpomaen saw that Erestor was starting to become angry, so he did the only thing he could think of . He clamped his hand over Lindir's mouth. Erestor turned away from the to speak with Lord Elrond. Melpomaen quickly removed his hand.
" I-I'm sorry. Erestor seemed to be getting upset."
Lindir smiled.
" All is well Melpomaen."
Both were silent for a moment. They stared into each other's eyes, not even noticing when their meals had been placed before them. Elrohir noticed this.
" Melpomaen, Lindir, are you alright?"
TBC...
