After brunch Arwen decide to go visit Haldir in the healers wing. Although she did not love him he had always been a good friend too her. She "turns the corner and she suddenly ran smack dab into Legolas hard chest. It felt like she ran into a brick wall. He quickly caught her and stopped her from falling. "Are you okay?" Legolas asked sincerely.
"Yes I'm fine I just need to pay closer attention to where I'm going" she said quickly.
"May I escort you, my lady" Legolas asked hesitantly. Arwen looked into his eyes and saw determination, he wasn't going to take no for an answer. " Yes" she said softly for she was still hoarse. "My lady why are you hoarse" he ask in a sarcastic yet sympathetic tone. " Legolas you know exactly why I'm hoarse". She said blushing embarrassingly. Legolas licked his lips "mmh, yes you taste even better than I remember". She playful slaps his arm "Legolas". He cleared his throat " Do you forgive me".
"Yes Legolas I forgive you. But I'm still angry with you". "Even after last night". He pouted with unbelief. "Yes even after last night. And you owe Haldir an apology".
"I'm not apologizing to him" Legolas said stubbornly. Arwen sighed why did he have to make things so complicated. " Legolas it would make me feel a lot better, if you apologized to him. He ones of my friends and I hate that he got injured because of me". She looked at him with pleading eyes. Legolas sighed angrily "Fine I'll apologize".
"Thank you" she said with a smile. "But you have to promise me something first" he said as stopped to face her. She hesitantly said "Ok". " I don't know what's happening to me but I'm starting to see things a lot clearier. Like how I feel about you those feeling have never changed. I want to be with you". Arwen heart yearned to believe him but she had heard it all before. She wondered whether or not this was another line out of his playbook just to draw to her back in.
"Legolas I wish I could believe you but we've been through this before. And every time you just end up breaking my heart " she said in a rebellious tone. "Give me one more chance. I promise I'll do better. Whatever it takes the wooing the spooning I'm all in". He said reassuringly.
"Even messages with our cloths on" she said with a mischievous smile. Legolas shook his head " No that's where I draw the line. But I can promise you one thing I'll be there when you wake up". He said before capturing her lips to seal the deal.
She felt Legolas suddenly stiffen. "What's wrong?" she asked out of concern. "Nothing I must be mistaken" said unconvincingly he quickly grab her hand and led her to the healers room. He opened the door, allowing Arwen to enter first. Haldir seemed to be healing quit nicely and was excited to see Arwen. "Hello Haldir" she said cheerfully. He silently acknowledges her for it was still hard for him to talk.
But when he seen who was behind her he became enraged. "What. Are. You. Doing. Here." He said slowly". " Look I didn't come here to argue. Afterall this could have been avoid if…" Arwen harshly elbowed him in his stomach stopping him from completing his sentence. She raised her eyebrow scolding him with her eyes. " Haldir I apologize for attacking you. My actions were unnecessary and have caused you bodily harm and for that I'm sorry" Legolas said sincerely. Arwen nodded her had in approval. Haldir reach his hand toward Legolas accepting his peace offering.
They shook hands but Legolas was once again distracted by something outside. Arwen was becoming irritated "Legolas what has you so distracted" she asked snapping him out of his daze. "What are they doing here?" Legolas said out loud. "Who are they"? Arwen asked confused. Legolas looked like he had just saw a ghost. "I need to go. Haldir I hope you feel better". He said as he quickly left the room. Arwen and Haldir both looked at the door astonished. Arwen finally broke the silence. " So tell me about Sara". Haldir was taken aback by her question "huh".
"Oh don't play coy," Arwen said with a smile noticing his blush. " So do you love her?" Haldir nodded his head yes. "Did you tell her" he nodded his head no. "Why not?" she gently scolded. He just shrugged his shoulders. Arwen shook her head in unbelief. "Well you should tell her. Im sure she would love to know how you feel about her".
