A/N: Hello there my friends. I must apologise for the long wait for the new chapter but I hope it's worth it. The next few chapters are going to pretty light and happy for a change, now Sam knows the truth. So read on and don't forget to review….

Sam and Frodo walked over to where Merry and Pippin were stood at the bar. The barmaid smiled and began pulling two more pints for them both.

"Thanks, Sarah." Sam said, paying for the drinks. Sarah was Rosie's sister and Sam's sister in law. She had taken over the job when Rosie had had Eleanor, her and Sam's first child. The 4 hobbits walked over to a table and sat down; fell down, in Pippin's case.

"Oopsie, silly me!" He said as he picked himself up off the floor, grinning.

"So Frodo, this is Meriadoc Brandybuck and Peregrin Took; The local pranksters." Sam explained to Frodo. Now he knew that everything was unfamiliar to him he was doing his best to explain things to him.

Frodo nodded. "Yeah, I know. I encountered them and their tricks in Hobbiton this morning."

Merry laughed. "Yeah, that's us. Once seen, never forgotten."

Sam looked at Frodo, knowing the truth that he had in fact forgotten them and winked. Merry and Pippin were too drunk at the moment to register what had just been said and had now passed out completely, both of them sound asleep on the table.

"Looks like it's just you and me then." Frodo said, grinning at the site that lay before him. He watched as Merry's hand moved as he slept, going to Pippin and patting him on the back. "There, there Pippin, you'll be ok." He said in his sleep.

Sam tried to keep himself from laughing, not succeeding. He got up and walked over to the bar, laughing all the way, so not to disturb Merry and Pippin. Frodo followed with his empty pint glass.

"Those two crack me up something rotten." Sam said as he controlled himself. "You know, sometimes I'm certain they can read each others minds."

Frodo smiled. "Sam, will you tell me about my past?" He asked, curious as to know what his life was like before.

"Sure I will Mr Frodo. What do you want to know?"

Frodo paused in thought. "Tell me about my friends. Who was I friends with while I was here?"

Sam took a sip of his drink. "Well, I think you've met all the hobbit friends you had. You were friends with a few elves, which surprised the locals. You socialised with the elves a lot, something very uncommon for a hobbit."

"Elves? Who?" Frodo raised his eyebrows. He knew a few elves from the Havens and had heard talk of them.

"You knew a few wood elves; I'm not sure who as I never met them myself. The one I can think of that you did know quite well was Prince Legolas, of Mirkwood. He was part of the Fellowship, a group you were part of, before you left. We went on a journey together, nine of us. Legolas was one of them."

"I knew Legolas??" Frodo asked in exclamation.

"Why, yes. You've heard of him?"

Frodo nodded. "Yes, he is very well known to the elves in the havens. They often talk of him. He sailed over to visit Valinor once and brought a friend with him. A dwarf.  I didn't know them of course, but they insisted they knew me."

"Well they will do." Sam explained. "They knew you very well. Anyway, hadn't we better be getting back? Rosie will have tea on."

Frodo got up and give his glass back to Sarah. "Goodbye Sarah, nice meeting you."

"And you, Mr Baggins." Sarah answered and waved as Sam and Frodo left the pub.

"Come on Mr Frodo." Sam said and the pair walked into the sunset, towards Bag End, home once again.
