Chapter 7

A soft kiss on the lips wakes me up gently. As I open them, I smell athelas in the air, along with my other favorite scent.

"Good morning, beautiful," Legolas whispered.

"Good morning," I smiled, my head on his shoulder comfortably. He raised my head again and kissed me deeply, and I returned it, making it a very long, passionate one.

"Nin dilthen luthien," he whispered as we separated. I smiled, giving him a soft peck on the lips.

"Diole lle, nin gollor," I whispered back, and he caught me in a kiss again. Then he smiled, standing up and stretching.

"Come, let's watch the sun rise. It's a beautiful time of day." I smiled back, taking his outstretched hand and going to the balcony. Just as we arrived, the stars started to fade.

"The stars were so bright," I whispered, almost to myself. Legolas slowly intertwined his fingers with my own.

"Sui vanimle, nin nas." I smiled again and watched as the sun's rays began to appear, bathing Minas Tirith with its warm rays.

"Lothorn?" a voice asked, "have you seen Legolas?" I froze, staring at him.

"It's Aragorn," he whispered.

"Lothorn?" the voice came again.

"Nurta," I breathed to Legolas, and he did. I stepped back in the room, yawning.

"Oh, good morning, Aragorn. I was just watching the sun rise."

"Ah, there you are. How are you feeling?"

I FEEL AMAZING! I'VE BEEN KISSING LEGOLAS FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!

"Fine," I replied.

"Good. Have you seen Legolas?"

"Not since yesterday."

"Tell him when you see him I need to see him as soon as possible. It's about next week."

Next week? I just nodded anyway.

"Thank you, Lothorn," and then he left.

"He is gone," I said, and Legolas reappeared.

"What's next week?" I asked.

"I believe it's Aragorn's coronation," he replied.

"Ooh…that's exciting! Wait, why didn't you tell me?" He smiled.

"I wanted it to be a surprise," he teased, ruffling my hair.

"Careful, your luthien doesn't take surprises well." He laughed.

"Really?" I smiled, and he gave me another kiss. "Now, I must go. I think Aragorn might get suspicious."

"Maybe. Do you think I'll be able to get out of here today?"

"Probably. You seem to have recovered. I'll see you around, lovely." He gave me a peck on the cheek and left.

OH. MY. GOSH! I squeaked silently to myself, walking around the room and taking deep breaths of the athelas in the air, watching the sun climbing in the sky. When I changed into normal clothes (if an Elvish dress is normal) I decided to walk around and see anyone, maybe one of the Hobbits. As I neared a room, I could hear laughter, lots of laughter.

"Gimli!" a voice laughed in surprise. Gimli laughed in return.

Is that what I think it is? I tapped Legolas on the shoulder as Gimli entered the room.

"Oh, Lothorn! You should join us." I smiled.

"I'd be honored." He took me by the arm and led me in with him.

"Legolas! Lothorn!" Frodo cried. He was obviously overjoyed to see us.

Well, he thought all of us were dead. Aragorn entered, receiving an excited cry from Frodo as well. Instinct told me to look at the door, and I did just as Sam approached it. He just stood there, taking all of it in. Frodo saw him and just smiled. Sam smiled back.

That was all that needed to be said.
