Note: None of these are my characters, except for Rutan! Slashiness in this fic between A/L!! As for how I write so fast... *sobs* I have no social life outside of school and work! Anybody want to volunteer some funny suggestions for the next chapter and the sequel? I'm also taking suggestions for funny things to happen in `Return of the Nightmare'!
The Plan Works
Part 17
Sam furtively poured the wine over the separate dinner he had prepared for Legolas and Aragorn, making sure that they were distracted. The Hobbit had made a different dinner for himself and everyone else.
The rest of the Fellowship was watching Aragorn and Legolas.
Haldir was busy making Aragorn jealous.
The taller blond elf was sitting so close to Legolas that their knees kept brushing, as the two worked on Legolas's damaged arrows together.
Aragorn kept sending scowls over at Haldir, who returned them with smirks.
Legolas was innocent of the fight that was brewing between his lover and the elf beside him, as the young elf continued working. The loss of most of his memories had made him even more innocent and naïve than he had been. So Legolas never suspected anything was going on.
Aragorn was seething inside as he watched Legolas talking innocently to Haldir. The human trusted Legolas, but did not trust Haldir. He still hadn't found out who had tossed his lover into the lake. But Aragorn finally lost it when Haldir brushed a lock of blond hair out of Legolas's eyes.
The younger elf gave the older one a small smile of gratitude, before going right back to work.
Frodo grinned. "Haldir is distracting Aragorn all right."
Gimli snickered. "I never knew an elf could be so devious... He's worthy of being a dwarf."
"Interesting..." Boromir mused, as he saw Aragorn stand up and storm over to the two blond elves.
"This is going to be good," Pippin gasped.
`That's enough, Haldir!' Aragorn snapped in Elvish.
Innocent blue eyes met Aragorn's grey ones. Legolas looked up to face Aragorn as well, a look of confusion on his face.
`What is enough?' Haldir questioned demurely. `I am merely helping Legolas mend his arrows, for he did not recall how to.'
`What's wrong, Aragorn?' Legolas asked, bewildered.
Haldir touched his shoulder comfortingly. `I think your lover has a temper problem, Legolas. As well as a low ego if he gets irrationally jealous.'
Now Legolas was more confused. `I don't understand,' he said quietly.
Aragorn glared at Haldir. `I do not have a low ego!' he hissed.
`Really?' Haldir teased. `I wouldn't know, seeing as how you get jealous so easily.'
Aragorn grabbed Haldir by the shoulders and hauled him to his feet. `What are you up to?" the human demanded.
`Let him go, Aragorn!' Legolas cried. He sprang to his feet and tugged at Aragorn's hands. `Haldir was only helping me.'
Haldir disliked being grabbed against his will, so the stronger elf brought his hands up and easily broke the grip Aragorn had on him. He then his hands to shove the human away from him hard.
Aragorn fell to the ground a few feet away.
Frodo covered his mouth with his hands
Gimli had his mouth hanging open.
Pippin winced.
Merry gasped.
Boromir looked stunned.
Sam didn't see it, because he was dishing out the food into their wooden bowls.
One thought went through the minds of those who saw it. This was going to be bad...
`Are you all right?' Legolas asked, as he knelt beside Aragorn. He turned a frown on Haldir. `You didn't have to push him so hard.'
Aragorn nodded, but climbed to his feet. A challenge was in his stormy eyes.
Haldir met the gaze squarely. `Are you that uncertain of your own feelings, `Estel', that you see a threat in everyone who comes near Legolas? Your jealousy will drive him away one day.'
Aragorn glared back. `When, exactly, do you intend to find a horse?' he snapped.
`My horse will find me,' Haldir said calmly. `Do you intend to send me away alone?'
Legolas looked stricken. `Stop this!' he shouted, as tears began to run down his face. The blond Prince of Mirkwood turned and ran away.
`Legolas!' both Haldir and Aragorn shouted, as the elf burst into tears and ran away. The two glared at each other for a few moments.
`Go after him,' Haldir told Aragorn quietly. `Give him my apology. I did not mean to shove you so hard, but I dislike being grabbed and threatened.'
Aragorn frowned, but did as the elf said.
"Dinner's ready!" Sam shouted loudly.
Legolas happened to be the one closest to him, so he got his food first. The unhappy elf didn't even notice the strange sauce, as he sat away from most of the group. He was busy thinking about how childish Haldir and Aragorn were acting. And he still didn't understand why they acted like that.
Aragorn grabbed a bowl of food and went over to sit by Legolas, who ignored him and ate the wine-soaked food.
Aragorn ate as well, and did not even think about what he was eating as he tried to convince Legolas to talk to him.
Haldir brought over the wine-filled water bags and handed one to each when he saw that they were slightly drunk. The elf left the rest there, and went over to the others to enjoy the show.
Legolas mumbled unhappily as he began drinking greedily, very thirsty after crying like that. He finished the first one and reached for a second.
Aragorn had downed his first wine bag like it was water, for he had not noticed it was wine. He drank the next just as quickly.
An hour later, the wine bags were gone, and Aragorn and Legolas were completely drunk.
Legolas hiccupped, which caused Aragorn to laugh insanely.
