Chapter VI

Chi; I tried writing lemon, and I sucked, big time, so... you can make up your own thing for it, K... besides, writing like that, it ain't my thing... sorry!

The morning after their attack on the five Orcs in the woods, Legolas woke first. Much the same way Bekki would, he blinked several times to adjust his eye sight to the light from outside and looked around him when he realised he wasn't in his own bed, let alone his own room. He looked around him and saw Bekki lying with her back facing him, even though her hair hid most of her back, he could see she had no clothes on and then noticed his own chest was bare... as was the rest of him. *Authors' note: Hmmaaa... *faints**

"What... happened last night?" He asked himself and saw their clothes from the day before strewn on the floor. He rubbed his temples and sighed thoughtfully, lying back in the soft pillows. Every-so-often, Bekki would stir and murmur something in her sleep, but she was having a dream and couldn't be woken. Taking advantage of this quiet time, Legolas got up and walked over to the bathroom, grabbing a few items of clothes on the way, so he was presentable for Bekki when she woke up. He splashed his face with water, straightened out his hair and put some pants (or elven trousers) on and re-emerged in the main room looking mildly better.

By this time, Bekki was up, but only just. She was sitting up in bed holding the purple duvet on her torso, looking confused and worried at the same time.

"Looking for someone?" Legolas asked. Bekki turned her head and looked at him, a small relieved smile spread on her lips.

"I thought you may have left, y'know, a one night stand thing..." She admitted. Legolas smiled, although he didn't know what a one night stand was, he had a pretty good idea at what it was and walked over to the bed, and crawled on, next to her.

"I would not have left... not for the wide world..." He murmured, cuddling up next to her. Bekki giggled lightly as he ran his fingers up her spine and shivered. "You are cold?"

"No... that just tickles, that's all!" Bekki replied smiling at him.

"We should set off for Gondor today... it will take us at least four days to get there by horse back." Legolas declared.

"Gondor? Who is in Gondor?" Bekki asked, grabbing her silver dressing gown from the bed end and draping it around her shoulders as she got up.

"Aragorn... and his new Queen, Arwen." Legolas replied watching her.

"Arwen? Elrond's daughter?"

"Yes... she gave the gift of the elves, the gift of immortality away, so she could live a mortal life by Aragorn's side." Legolas explained as Bekki examined her reflection in her mirror.

"How romantic..." She sighed dreamily. She walked over to Legolas and leaned her forehead on his. "Maybe we'll be like that one day, hm?"

"Both immortal, ruling over Mirkwood, you mean?" Legolas questioned.

"With lotsa kids!" Bekki giggled getting kissed sneakily by Legolas on the lips.

"I think that would be perfect..." He smiled and stood up. "I should leave to get ready for travel, Detori and your other elf maidens will be in to dress you. I will make sure Uurime and Caranweigh are ready. Remember, bri-" But he was cut short by Bekki kissing him warmly. She broke the kiss and smiled.

"OK, OK! Enough with the check list! You go get dressed, I'll be in the court yard as soon as possible, and don't worry, I'll remember my swords." Legolas nodded and left as Detori and the other hand maidens entered.

"Corinath! Corinath! Did you hear!? Did ya hear?!" Michelle squeaked running into Corinath's room. "Tararith and Legolas! They're going to Hobbiton! Collecting all of his old friends in the process!! And do you wanna know why?!" Corinath eyed Michelle angrily and sighed as he sat up, slightly awake, slightly asleep.

"Why? It most interests me to know what my friend is doing." He asked, sarcasm dripping from his voice. Michelle, being in such a happy mood, ignored this and continued.

"Cause, well, I heard from Tharangard, who heard from Legolas, that he wants to marry her in Hobbiton! Isn't that crazy!?" She giggled insanely, rocking back and forth.

"Yes... very strange for the Prince to marry the girl he loves." Corinath replied. "And tell me, how did you hear this from Tharangard?"

"Oh... well... it's a secret!" Michelle smiled, getting of his bed and walking towards the door. "See ya at lunch Corinath!" She chirped and left.

***

In the court yard, Bekki was already mounted on Uurime, and shaking with laughter while watching Legolas trying to mount Caranweigh with some difficulty because Caranweigh was skitting back and forth.

"Legolas, why don't you just ask one of the grooms for some help?" She giggled. Legolas shot her an angry look and finally got up on to Caranweigh.

"There... a skitting horse can't stop me!" Boasted Legolas, trotting up beside Uurime.

"Uh-huh?" Bekki asked, twisting her necklace in her fingers. "Well, c'mon, lets go." She smiled trotting out the court yard gates. Legolas followed and came up next to her.

"And on to Gondor!" He cried, as Caranweigh galloped off across the flat land, before the forest.

"Hey! Wait up!" Bekki called back, kicking Uurime in the side so he followed on at a gallop.

***

Three days past, and the two elves only stopped to sleep twice, so were both very happy and relieved to see the gates of the White City in the distance during the fourth day.

"You see there? The White City! We should be there before darkness falls." Legolas told Bekki who was thoroughly pissed off and in pain after being on a horse for two days straight.

"Finally! When we get there, I'm lookin' forward to a nice bath and some sleep!" Bekki told him. "My ass is killin' me!"

"How fast do you want to get there?" Legolas asked.

"As soon as possible." Bekki replied hopefully.

"We can get there in about an hour if we gallop..." Legolas told her.

"My ass is gonna hurt even more than it already is, but what the Hell, c'mon!" She grinned and Uurime galloped across the flat land.

***
Soon, Uurime and Caranweigh stopped outside the White Cities' gates. Two gate keepers walked out, armed with spears and demanded their business.

"I am Prince Legolas Greenleaf, of Mirkwood."

"And the girl?!" One gate keeper asked.

"This is my travelling companion, Tararith... uhh... Greenleaf... or soon to be." Legolas told the gate keepers, smiling at Bekki who showed a look of shock on her face.

"Thracken, go and inform the King of the Prince's arrival. My Lord, please. Your horses are tiring. Follow me to the stable." The gate keeper with more authority said, opening the main part of the gate and letting the pair through.

Inside the City walls, Legolas and Bekki dismounted, Bekki still in a slight state of shock about what Legolas had said, and followed the gate keeper to the royal stables, where Aragorn was already standing, awaiting them.

"Legolas... my old friend." He smiled kindly seeing the blonde elf.

"Aragorn. It's good to see you again." Legolas agreed, shaking hands with him in greeting.

"Legolas." The pale skinned woman to Aragorn's left bowed slightly.

"Arwen. I see you are well." Legolas bowed to her.

"I ask you friend, where is this new lover of yours?" Aragorn asked.

"Here Aragorn. Tararith." Legolas smiled bringing Bekki forward. Aragorn smiled and her and kissed her hand.

"She's is indeed beautiful Legolas." Aragorn told the elf. Bekki felt her face burn slightly.

"Tararith, you must be tired from travelling. Come, my elf-maidens will organise one of the finest rooms for yourself and the Prince, while you bathe and dress." Arwen smiled warmly at the nervous Bekki and led her up into the Palace.

"Come Legolas. There is much of which we must speak, but first, a change of clothing is in order I think." Aragorn patted the elf Prince's shoulder and led him a different way to Arwen and Bekki.

***
Later that evening, Bekki was down in the main hall of the Palace with Arwen. Both were wearing traditional elven dresses, much like the previous nights, they were floor length, showing skin front ward and lace like sleeves. Arwen's was a purple/lilac colour which went well with her complexion and hair, while Bekki's was a forest green, with silver and white on it.

The two were talking as Legolas and Aragorn descended the stairs from their rooms, dressed in regal clothes. Legolas' were a marine blue with white, Bekki thought blue was one of the best colours that suited him because it brought out his eyes, while Aragorn was wearing regal black with his crown atop his head. The two men walked over to the elven ladies and bowed to them, Aragorn holding his crown.

"I pray you have not been waiting long." Aragorn smiled to Arwen.

"Oh no love, Tararith has just been telling me of the life in Mirkwood, and that she has only just discovered her elf-hood." Arwen replied with a smile. Aragorn and Arwen continued conversing, while Bekki and Legolas acted like teenagers at a high school dance.

"You look... umm... beautiful." Legolas stated meeting Bekki's eyes in an intense gaze.

"Thanks.... you don't look so bad yourself." Bekki giggled running a hand over his shoulder and looking over the robes. "Very... Prince-ish." She stammered and realised how stupid that sounded.

"It seems our presence is making the young lovers nervous." Arwen told Aragorn in a loud whisper causing the two elves to turn to her.

"It does indeed seem this way. Come, we must to dinner, Legolas, Tararith, you may join us when is your pleasure." Aragorn smiled and walked off with Arwen down the corridor.

When they'd gone and the hall was empty apart from them both, the two elves smiled to each other and kissed.

"I meant what I said." Legolas smiled.

"Did I say anything against this my Lord?" Bekki asked in a mocking tone.

"No, but... you were.... umm..." He paused trying to think of something.

"Yes?" Bekki said cocking her head.

"Seere!" Legolas smiled kissing her before she could retaliate. Bekki rested her hands on Legolas' chest but thought of earlier.

*Flash back*

"I am Prince Legolas Greenleaf, of Mirkwood."

"And the girl?!" One gate keeper asked.

"This is my travelling companion, Tararith... uhh... Greenleaf... or soon to be."

*End Flash back*

"Mm." She pulled away. "Legolas... what did you mean earlier? When you were telling the guards who we were."

"What do you mean?" Legolas asked with a concerned tone.

"You called me Tararith Greenleaf, or soon to be..." Bekki turned her back resting her hands on her stomach to try and stop the butterflies. "What did you mean?"

"Exactly what you think I meant." Legolas replied, placing his hands around her waist. "I want you, not just physically, but mentally too... but I can only achieve that if you agree to something...."

"Like a promise?"
"Yes... you must promise to be with me, for all time... in Mirkwood... to rule with me..." Legolas turned her to face him and held her chin in his fingers. "I want you... and only you Tararith..." Bekki smiled and blew some stray hair out of her face.

"Where do you think I'm going to go?" She asked as he cleared the stray hair for her. "Legolas, when I said I loved you, I didn't mean it lightly... I meant it. I do love you, and I'm not going to leave you... not ever... even if I never return to my world, I don't care... as long as I've got you, and as long as you'll have me... I'll stay." Legolas smiled and kissed her deeply.

"Of course I want you to stay!" He said before kissing her again. "We can get married in Hobbiton! This was the reason I wanted you to travel with me... so we could get married in Hobbiton... with all my companions there." He kissed her again finally and laughed picking her up and spinning her round.

"What's going on with the young lovers?" Arwen's voice asked, making the laughing couple break apart.

"Have we interrupted something?" Aragorn asked, eyeing Legolas.

"She's agreed!" Legolas grinned.

"Agreed to what?" Arwen asked.

"To marry him." Bekki replied with a smile.

"Well, this is good news!" Arwen clasped her hands together. "I must go! New arrangements must be made." She said and walked off.

"I congratulate both of you." Aragorn smiled.

"Actually, Aragorn we were wondering... would you and Arwen come to Hobbiton with us? Legolas wanted all of his companions at the wedding." Bekki asked standing with her arms around Legolas' neck.

"I wouldn't miss it.... neither would Arwen... but come! Good food and merriment awaits you! We ride the on the dawn in two days for Isingard." Aragorn laughed leading them up the corridor the banquet hall.
