Thank you everyone for your reviews. I thought I have lost all my readers. I cant wait to update more of my story and see how all of you like it. Please keep reviewing and enjoy the chapter.
Chapter 28"You're back!" Pippin screamed as all the hobbits ran to me and hugged, I couldn't help but smile.
"Of course, I can't be ridden of that easily."
"Where did you go?" Merry asked.
"Um, I rather not talk about that right now." I looked up to meet Legolas eyes. Moments later the hobbits finally let go of my waist and Legolas made his way towards me. "Missed me?" I smiled at him.
"Did you go home?" Legolas asked coldly.
" Yeah I did. What's the matter?" I put a hand on his shoulder.
He didn't get a chance to answer when I felt someone behind me and I turned.
" You've finally come back." Boromir said
" Yeah, its good to be back." I hugged him and once again he was cut of guard.
" Well yes of course." And then he let go.
" Aremi." I was soon in arms of Aragorn. " Where did you go? We were all worried."
I laughed. " I'm okay."
" No you are not." Legolas interrupted.
" Yes I am."
" Legolas is right. You are not well." Aragorn said.
"What? What are you guys talking about?"
" You shoulder, forehead, and hand are wounded." Aragorn touched my forehead.
" Ow." I hissed " I forgot about that. Too busy worried about my mom and happy to see you guys." Aragorn motioned my to sit on a log by the fire. " Aragorn before you fix my wounds can you please help my mother first?"
He hesitated. " Please, I am more worried about her than I am about myself."
Aragorn signed. "Very well then, Legolas will tend your wounds."
" Oh okay then." I wasn't too thrilled that Legolas was going to help me. He didn't really seem like he was happy to see me again. " Thank you, Aragorn."
I watched as he got up and walked to Legolas. I turned away when Legolas glanced my way. I looked at the fire.
" I need to see your wounds." I jumped when I heard Legolas. I was too concentrated in watching the fire. He sat down and motioned for me to take off my sweater.
I unzipped my sweater and took off slowly since my shoulder burned. Legolas only starred at my wound. " Is it bad?" I asked him. My skin looked horrible.
" I am going to need a lot of water for this." Legolas said.
I started to shake from the cold. I was only wearing my tank top.
I felt a warm blanket laid over me, I looked up and it was Boromir.
" Thank you Boromir."
" I noticed you were shaking. I didn't wish for you to be cold."
"That is very sweet of you. Thank you."
"My pleasure my lady." He smiled.
" Boromir, would be so kindly as to bring water from the river. I need to clean Lady Aremi's wound." Legolas asked coldly.
" Certainly" Boromir turned and left.
I looked back and Legolas who was watching Boromir leave. He had a weird look in his face.
" What's wrong?"
" Nothing?" He glared at me. He turned to my shoulder again. " How did you get this wound?"
" Don't change the subject. I want to know what's bothering you."
" You don't need to help everyone if they are in distress."
" What?"
" Forget it." Legolas was still looking at my wounds. " How did you get your wounds?"
I was silent for a while then answered.
" A piece of wood that was on fire fell on my shoulder. I cut my hand on a rock. My fingers touched the fire by accident."
" What about the one in your forehead?"
" I don't know." I shrugged.
" Do you not care that you are injured?" Legolas sounded pissed. " Do you like getting hurt?"
" My injuries aren't that bad. Why are you making it a big deal?"
" You didn't answer my question."
"What question?"
" Do you even care if you get injured?"
" In this case, no, I don't care. There was some one else was worried about, if they got injured. I didn't care if I wounds along the way if that meant saving that person. So no I don't care."
" You are an ignorant girl." Legolas shot at me.
I was shocked that he was treating me this way that I didn't know what to say. But that quickly passed.
" Why are you acting this way? Why are you so upset?"
" I am not upset." He said looking out at the woods, into the darkness.
" Oh really sure fooled me. Look I don't know what the hell your problem is but I did nothing wrong for you to be taking your anger out on." He kept looking out in the woods. He didn't even blinked when I was talking to him, it was as if he didn't even hear me.
Five minutes later Boromir arrived with a bucket full of water.
" Here you are." He but the bucket of water beside Legolas.
" Thank you Boromir." I smiled at him.
Legolas grabbed my injured and dipped a cloth into a water. His touched wasn't as gentle as it always was. It didn't bring butterflies that way it always did. All I felt was sadness and anger. Angry that he was making me feel sad. I always promised I would never make a man make me feel like crap like my mom's boyfriend made my mom feel. And like other boys my friends went out with. And now I was breaking that promise just because I was getting close to Legolas, thinking he was different. Stupid me, I should now by now that no man is different, even if they are an elf.
I pulled my hand away when Legolas was about to clean the wound with the wet cloth. I stood up and left. He seemed surprised when I did this.
I felt like crying. I held my hand closer to my heart. My whole arm was starting to hurt. I stopped walking before I was outside of camp.
" If I don't tend your wounds they will become infected." Legolas said behind me. Stupid elf feet I didn't even hear him coming.
" Like you care." I turned to face him. He face quickly changed once I said what I had said. He looked angry but before he could speak I beat him to the punch. " You know what? You know that little promise you made?"
His face changed.
"Well, you could shove it up you a…"
"Aremi! Your mother is awaking." Pippin yelled.
Legolas just looked at me and he didn't look too happy. I made my way to my mother. I sat beside her.
" Aremi…" My mother grunted.
" I'm right here mom." I felt everyone gathering around.
She finally opened her eyes and sat up.
" Mom I need you to remember that this isn't a dream, okay?"
" Okay." She looked at everyone for the longest time and then at me. She wasn't breathing.
" Mom I need you to breath!" I yelled at her. She had forgotten how to breathe from the shock. She took a deep breath and let it out.
" Holy shit!"
" Well now we know where she gets it from." Pippin said.
" Can you please explain everything? How the hell did we get here? Why are we in Middle Earth!"
I laughed. " So this is the thing, mom……"
