THE SPARKLING DIAMOND



THANKYOU ALL OF MY REVIWERS! I am nearing the end of this fiction in some odd amount of chapters, but I have thought up an ending that will lead to a sequel whose name I will reveal on the last chapter. Terribly sorry my faithful readers, but I regret to inform you that you will most likely NOT enjoy the ending of this so I don't blame you if you stop reading now. In fact, I advise you to. Don't worry though, it IS a romance story. I keep getting people that are asking me if they are ever going to fall in love. Look this is a romance story so, you figure it out. In a fairy tale, I would have all ready written that they fell in love, and started a family yadayadaydablahblah. This is not a fairy tale. In the real world, it takes more than two chapters for true love to rear its ugly head. (Actually it takes 7-8 chapters in my standards* hint, hint*)

. Those of you, who have seen Moulin Rouge, know how this fic will end.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything at all.but one day I will have my own book category on fanfiction

.. AnyHoo.On with the fic!



DIAMOND

The New Town Square was finished, and the festivities began. Pippin and I hadn't talked for three days, and I assumed he didn't intend to talk to me today, he went off to talk to his family and friends. "Diamond?" I heard a familiar voice behind me. "Yes mother?" I asked calmly. "Hello Dear, how are you?" she asked sitting next to me on the picnic bench. " Blooming" I replied sarcastically heard her take a deep breath " I am sorry Diamond. You really should have your choice of who you marry, but that's the punishment we must endure for being women." She said. I watched Pippin grin half-heartedly as one of his friends told a joke. " I got my choice mother." I said quietly. " If I really had a choice I would have chosen him." And I felt completely honest. And as if reading my mind, Pippin walked over to me and asked me to dance. I accepted with a smile and we were soon bouncing to the beat of the music.

PIPPIN

The music finally slowed, so I would be able to talk to her once I had caught my breath. But she spoke first. "I lied to you," she said guiltily. "Oh?" I said in mock surprise. " I am not forcefully chained to you, I .I-" I watched her struggle for words. "I enjoy your company. In fact I love it. I feel horrible for telling you I didn't." she said lamely. I watched her try to say I love you, but I found I didn't need to hear it anymore I found my hands circling her waist and drawing her closer, and my eyes boring into hers anticipating what would be our first true kiss. In a fairy tale, I would tell you that this is the happy ending. It isnt.

DIAMOND

I took me minutes to notice the music had stopped, and that most of the hobbits had milled out of the square to hear the speech from the mayor of Hobbiton. I didn't notice we had stopped dancing before the music had stopped, I could still feel the rhythm of the song, then again, that might have been my heart thumping so loudly, it was drowning out all the other sounds from the new cobblestone square as I stood (on my toes) enraptured in this kiss. We pulled away when Merry gave a large Whoop! And I saw my smile reflected in his own.
