67 Failed Attempt.

Gimli grunted and turned over, for all the word looking like a large caterpillar, as he wrapped himself tighter in his Lothlorien cloak and wriggled in the leaf mould beneath the tree. The elf seated astride a branch high above sighed and swung his long legs back and forth before plucking another acorn from his pocket, rolling it between his fingers whilst contemplating his next target point then arcing it down to bounce off the dwarf's exposed cheek. At least, that was his intention. The hand which moved with reflex speed to catch the small projectile before it made contact spoiled that plan. Pale grey eyes shone in the darkness where Aragorn stared up from his position leaning against the trunk of the oak, they crinkled at the corners as a small smile played around the pipe held between his lips.

"Go to sleep Legolas." The Ranger whispered, knowing the elf would hear him perfectly. "And stop trying to annoy the dwarf!"
