Aragorn spread his arms wide in the bed. He rolled first to one side and then slowly to the other side before settling on his back. He groaned when the child kicked and sat up slowly. He looked around the room he had been staying in for the past weeks and frowned. It did not look like his room and he longed for home but Elrond refused to allow them to leave.
He longed for Legolas' arms at night and found the notion ridiculous for Legolas to sleep alone. Swinging his legs over the edge of the bed, he then tugged on his boots before grabbing his sword to walk out of the room.
He crossed the hallways on silent feet and gently knocked upon the closed door. He hopped from one foot to another until the soft voice came that bade him to enter. He opened the door and was rewarded with the sight of Legolas sitting near the fire in a deep conversation with a tall silver haired elf.
The elf rose swiftly as Legolas sat up straighter. Aragorn smiled himself, as he walked forward slowly. "Lord Celeborn." He eventually said as he placed a hand over his heart before extending it in a sweeping gesture. The tall elven lord grasped his hand to smile at him. He led Aragorn to the empty seat next to Legolas as the elven prince shuffled over to make more room.
When Celeborn himself was seated he answered. "Good evening, Estel. Legolas said you were probably sleeping." Aragorn leaned forward slightly as he cast a quick look around the room. "I tried to sleep but found it eluded me this evening." He felt Legolas' hand upon his shoulder as the elf asked. "Perhaps you are not used to sleeping alone?"
"I do sleep easier when you are with me." Aragorn replied, casting a look at Legolas. His elf simply smiled and Aragorn opened his mind slightly. Celeborn and Legolas fell into an easy conversation which Aragorn choose not to follow. He allowed his mind to briefly brush Legolas' and the elven eyes snapped to his own. Their brilliant blue spark reflected in the smile that came to his lips.
Legolas then responded at something Celeborn said. "Yes, I believe you are quite right about that. Gimli does take every chance he can to spent time with Galadriel. It has been a long time since I last saw him." Celeborn's gaze shifted to Aragorn's face as he said, "He did not come to visit you?"
"Gimli did not know about the attack." Aragorn softly answered, bowing his head. "It was better that we did not tell him for I fear the elven maiden's life would have been over, for I am quite sure Gimli would have killed her." Celeborn nodded.
"She will be judged by the Valar for what she has done." The older elf eventually answered and Aragorn felt chills erupt over his body.
"I hope she does not die for what she has done." The man eventually whispered as Legolas looked at him.
"Why do you say such a thing? I thought you hated her for what she has done to you and for injuring me?"
"Yes, I do not like her and I would not know what I would do if I would ever run into her. But hating her, no. Hating is such a big emotion and I can understand why she has done it. She wanted you for herself. Yet it did not give her the right to harm another person. But sometimes it is hard to see when you think you have the right to one person." Aragorn thought for a moment as he answered.
"That is very wise of you, Estel. Hate is an easy emotion to say but to really hate somebody. It overpowers easily and we do not know our boundaries anymore. We justify our actions by calling it hate or love while in truth it is something that can or should never be accepted." Celeborn added.
Legolas had gripped his hand tightly as the elf answered after a moment. "Then you are wiser then me, meleth Nin. But let us not discuss these things now. This time is past us and we shall rejoice in being together once more." Legolas curled on the couch by putting his feet underneath his legs. Aragorn kicked off his boots but knew better then to try and curl up on the couch for he would not be able to rise.
"But you are not yet fully healed, are you Legolas?" Celeborn asked as he took up his glass of wine.
"No, but it is nothing more then a shallow cut now. I will heal soon enough. It is other damage I am worried about." Legolas' reply a little bit tense. Celeborn's sharp eyes rose to bore into the elf sitting opposed him.
"What damage is it that you speak about?"
"Damage done to the soul, and the trust of the one I love most in this world." Legolas stated sadly, casting a quick look at Aragorn. He found the silver eyes peering back up at him in confusion.
"I trust you, you know this." Aragorn said after a moment, cocking his head to the side.
"Yes, but we are further apart now then we have ever been before. Mentally as well as physically."
"That is because we have not been able to spend some time with just the two of us without me falling asleep or without people interrupting us. I did not expect Lord Celeborn to be here at this late hour else…." Aragorn quickly swallowed the rest of that sentence as he sent a shy smile at Celeborn.
"Well Elrond said it was to be expected that you would need more sleep. You are carrying a child," Legolas replied hastily. "Sometimes I believe I might be carrying two children when our child is restless." Aragorn said with a gentle smile.
"Twins?" Legolas asked unbelievable, uncurling himself from the couch. The woodland elf looked pale and Celeborn chuckled softly. "But Elrond would have known by now if there were twins, would he not?" Legolas looked from Celeborn to Aragorn.
"Yes, he would have. And Aragorn is not carrying twins." Celeborn said softly, putting his glass down.
"How would you know?" Legolas asked startled, turning to look at Celeborn.
"You can sense it." Celeborn said simply as Legolas turned once more from Celeborn to Aragorn and back again.
"Come here, young prince and I shall show you what to do." Celeborn beckoned Legolas closer as the distraught elf went willingly. Aragorn shook his head as he saw Legolas hesitated slightly before the elf sank down near Aragorn's legs.
The prince was still shaking his head and saying softly. "Twins?"
"Legolas, I am not carrying twins!" Aragorn responded, placing a fond hand on the fair haired elf before him. Legolas turned quickly to look at him and after a moment the elf calmed down, sending a comfortable smile Aragorn's way. "I am sorry; I was imagining little Elrohirs and Elladans." The elf responded lightly, causing Aragorn to laugh loudly.
"Surely my grandsons are not that bad." Celeborn's soft comment made them both realize the elven lord was still sitting in the room.
"No, they are not. They are nice but very energetic, and to have twins, well it would be very hard." Aragorn answered with a fond smile when he thought about his foster brothers.
"Then it is settled. I will leave you two on your own then for I can hear my wife calling for me already. I have lingered too long. A good night, Legolas, Estel." Legolas closed and locked the door after Celeborn walked out.
Aragorn remained seated on the couch until Legolas extended his hand and soon the man was pulled to his feet. "So what was the reason of your coming?" Legolas asked, resting two hands upon the man's shoulders.
Aragorn hesitated slightly before seeing the honest look he knew so well in Legolas and softly said. "I was thinking about how long it has been since I last touched you or when you touched me. I long for you." He felt very self conscious as he looked upon Legolas.
"I do not see why we should not share a bed together again." The elf said smiling as Aragorn shook his head and said in a strangled voice.
"No, I mean I desire you. I want for you to make love to me, or me to you, it does not matter."
"You mean you came here because you are…" Legolas felt a smile threaten to break out on his face. When Aragorn nodded the elf smiled happily and kissed the man, trying to lean into the touch. Aragorn broke away when he found he could come no closer to Legolas and he looked down.
"This is not working." He finally answered, running a hand through his hair.
"Then we will make it work." Legolas simply answered, catching Aragorn off guard when he moved behind the man to gently kiss his neck. "You are too big to do this the old fashion way." The elf purred into Aragorn's ear, feeling the man shudder against him as Legolas' fingers quickly unbuttoned the sleeping shirt.
When the clothing fell away Legolas smiled to say. "You look stunning." His hands ran over the heated skin as Aragorn closed his eyes until the elven lips kissed his own. He moved his head to the side to gain better access to Legolas' mouth and to drive his tongue deep within his lover's mouth.
The next moment he cried out as he was lifted off his feet and Legolas carried him to the bed, dumping him upon the covers. The elf gave him one last smile before joining him upon the bed, pulling Aragorn towards him. Legolas' hand ran over his chest as the elf moved his head down to suck upon an exposed nipple, causing Aragorn to cry out as ecstasy swept through him.
Using the time to pull at his elf's clothing he was helped when Legolas stopped his blissful ministrations. The candlelight cast a gentle shadow over the pale face as Legolas waited patiently until the clothing was removed. Aragorn simply dumped it on a heap on the floor before hurrying to turn back to Legolas, feeling his desire being fuelled by Legolas' own.
He lunged for the elf and Legolas laughed softly as he caught Aragorn, both of them landing on the bed. "There is something very intoxication about seeing you swelling with child." The elf whispered huskily as Aragorn took the moment to gently lick and kiss the pointy ears.
Gently tugging at Aragorn's loose trousers Legolas found Aragorn's reflexes were still quick as the man pinned him underneath him. "Not yet!" His husband panted as he rolled to the side.
"Estel, need I remind you this will not go the normal way?" Legolas said softly, his hand gently tugging on Aragorn's pants again.
"But… I…" The man stammered.
"No need to worry for I shall take excellent care of you as I have done in the past, and as I know you will do for me." The next minutes were a heaven and hell for Aragorn as Legolas brought him to such a height only to make him crazy by denying him to touch him.
Finally Aragorn closed his eyes as he finally relaxed and Legolas collapsed beside him. They both lay panting for a while as Legolas drew the blankets over them both. The elven arms soon surrounded him and Aragorn opened his eyes to smile at the elf beside him. "I love you." He said, placing a tender kiss on Legolas' lips.
"I know, Melme, I love you too." Legolas smiled at him and finally Aragorn succumbed to sleep as Legolas placed a gentle hand upon the man's stomach, feeling his child settle down he whispered. "I really do hope we are not having twins, but we will see. We will see."
