Hello there! I was able to fit in a chapter after Winter Guard practice! The teacher made me do this walk 50 times, no lie, becuase I didn't set right and extend my leg out far enough. The chapter is short but I didn't know how to go further with this, I'm sorry. Reviews/Requests/Suggestions/Ideas are always welcome!

The winter passed and spring arrived, melting the snow and revealing the dirt ground. Gandalf, Bilbo and I said our goodbyes the morn winter turned to spring and the snow melted. I wore a brown shirt with brown trousers and spring green boots. I approached Thorin and hugged him for a few minutes. I broke the hug and looked into his royal blue eyes.

"You'll make a great king." I placed a hand on his shoulder.

"You'll make a great queen in the far future." He cracked a rare smile. I laughed for the first time in the past month or so. I moved down the line to Kili who wore a bright smile.

"I'll miss you." I whispered, stepping forward and wrapping my arms around him.

"I'll miss you too." He whispered as he placed one hand on my head and one on my waist.

"If he wakes, I'll tell him where you are." He whispered, breaking the hug and looking into my eyes. I nodded in silent agreement, turning to face Gandalf and Bilbo who stood just a few feet away. I let go of the dwarf and approached the wizard and hobbit.

2 Weeks later

We arrived in Rivendell after two weeks of travelling through Mirkwood and the Misty Mountains. Lord Elrond, my grandfather, greeted us as we arrived and called for his children, my aunt and uncles.

"Vedui' il'er, Nae saian luume'." Elrond greeted us, nodding to Gandalf before hugging the hobbit and I.

"Vanya, Sut naa lle?" Arwen asked, approaching us with her two brother following close behind.

"Good, I'm glad to see all of you." I said, hugging my aunt and uncles. Arwen led me to my room as Elladan and Elrohir led Gandalf and Bilbo to their rooms. Arwen and I sat down on the soft bed and sat in silence for a few minutes… until she spoke.

"I sense something is troubling you." She whispered, placing a hand upon my shoulder.

"Indeed, you are correct." I sighed.

"Mani naa ta tanya marte?" She asked.

"I am courting a dwarf." I confessed, expecting her to gasp. She didn't though, she was like that I suppose. The kind and accepting princess of Rivendell.

"He fought in the Battle of Five Armies alongside his uncle and brother and was injured. He is in a coma and hasn't woken or made one movement since the battle. I can't handle this pain and loneliness. I'm departing over the sea tomorrow morn." I explained to her, tears streaming down my face as I fell into her arms. She stroked my hair as I cried into her dress.

"Love is a mysterious thing, child."

Translation:

Vedui' il'er = Greetings, everyone

Nae saian luume' = It has been too long

Sut naa lle = How are you?

Mani naa ta tanya marte = What is it that happened?
