A/N: Okay, here's the next chapter… more nekkid Legolas, and what nearly ends up being a nekkid dwarf. O.o;; Oh, and when I wrote this, I had this particular place in mind: a small pond with a cliff-face behind it. I guess I didn't really clarify that in the first chapter… gods, I need improvement. --;
Disclaimer: you know the drill. I own only Andreal, and I want to own Orlando Bloom. There. I've said it. *pouts* Are you happy now?
Caught, Chapter 7
Gimli the dwarf simply looked at Legolas. "Why didn't you come back to get us?" he shouted, drunkenly.
Legolas winced slightly. "Not so loud, Gimli." The elf looked at Gimli in horror as the dwarf was about to strip off his leggings. "I needed some time alone to think things through."
Gimli looked only slightly disappointed at that, and pulled his boots back on. "Fine, then. I'll leave you alone. Just remember that if you don't come back…"
Legolas allowed himself a barely-visible scowl. "Yes, Gimli, I know. Now please, leave me." The elf sighed, and watched as the dwarf left, crashing through the underbrush. 'He's more agreeable when he's drunk,' his thoughts bluntly told him.
Now, to find Andreal.
Andreal had already thoroughly explored the spring and the area around it…partially why she was the one chosen to guide the group of males. From where she'd ducked under cover of water, she swam to the rocks behind her, directly for a darker one. Upon closer inspection, it revealed to whoever was looking that it wasn't a rock, but a cave whose only entrances in this area were underwater and several feet above the water.
Surfacing in the cavern, she climbed out of the water and shivered. Andreal allowed her eyes to adjust to the darkness of the tunnel, and looked over the two paths before her. Taking the one to the left would lead her several miles in the wrong direction. Taking the path ahead of her would eventually lead her to the entrance above-water, where she could safely observe the situation, especially since the sun had already set, and the entrance looked like a simple indentation in the rock. She smiled and took the tunnel ahead of her.
Legolas was confused. He'd looked all over for the female elf, and she wasn't there. Again, it seemed she had just disappeared. After what had happened…
He sighed. 'I guess I can't really blame her. It wasn't her fault, and she must be none too fond of me now.' The male elf flipped onto his back and just floated there. He didn't hear the faint splash behind him. He attributed the slight feel of fingers running down his back to drifting weeds. He shivered slightly and simply remained there.
Andreal smiled slightly. Legolas had somehow managed to convince the dwarf to leave him alone, and the dwarf had pounded off back to camp. The male elf simply stood there for several moments, then flipped onto his back and floated around lazily.
Andreal had to bite back a gasp of shock when she saw this. 'My lord, he's…he's… large…' She grinned to herself for a moment, and dove into the spring as silently as she could. Swimming up underneath Legolas, she ran her fingertips gently down his back. His only reaction was to shiver slightly. She was somewhat disappointed, but didn't have time to think about it.
The need for air made itself known, and she surfaced, in the process, grabbing the male elf's behind and shoving him aside.
Legolas felt himself grabbed by the behind and roughly shoved aside. Gasping for air, where he had previously floated, was Andreal.
A/N: okay. End of chapter. You review. Now. You review, you get more nekkid Legolas.
