More reviews please! My muse won't be satisfied until I get at least
ten. It's driving me crazy cause I have major writers block. For the sake
of my sanity review! (Oh and by the way…this is still a song-fic to the
song Blurry by Puddle of Mud, which will be in italics…Legolas is still
telling Haldir and Gimli what happened before he was imprisoned, everything
that is in the present time will be in bold print…blah blah blah …oh and
all of this belongs to J.R.R Tolkien although I would love it if Leggy was
mine…)

I walked down to the main gate of the city, enjoying the light breeze that played around my face. I was trying to ignore the aching in my heart that had been present since the night before.
"Good to see you crazy elf!" came a gruff voice, making me forget Aragorn for a moment.
"Same here, stupid dwarf!" I replied…
*************************************************************
"Yeah we hugged and said hi, just get to the part I wasn't there for!" yelled Gimli at Legolas who was looking a little better, now that his wounds had been treated.
"Hush and let him finish. Remember I wasn't there," said Haldir. "I want to hear everything Legolas."
"Alright," replied Legolas, a pained look on his face…
*************************************************************
"I want to thank you all for accepting my offer," said Aragorn, as we all sat down to lunch.
"It was a very intriguing proposition," said Frodo.
"Intriguing, ha! It was the prospect that brought this dwarf from his mine!"
I wasn't really paying attention to this idle talk. My eyes lingered on Aragorn, who was talking to Gandalf, his arm over her shoulders.
"Bitch," I muttered, watching Arwen play with a strand of his hair, just like I used to.
"So how's life treating you Legolas," asked the hobbit Merry from across the table.
"Huh?" I asked. The hobbit chuckled. "We haven't seen each other for over ten years. Though it must seem like mere seconds to you."
"Oh…yes. I've been living here in Gondor for the most part. Thought I long for the forests again."
"Well then you're in luck," said Aragorn. "Because before we journey to Mordor we must go to Lothlorein. Diplomatic stuff, you know." He glanced at me, and I stared back coldly.
"And what about you Merry," I asked, turning back to him.
"I've been serving Lady Ewoyn of Rohan, and her Lord. It's a job that suits me well."
"Faramir?" asked Aragorn, interrupting again. "He will be joining us in place of his brother."
I was fuming, my pain and sadness fueling my rage. "That will be the last time…" I hissed, standing up. Everyone present was staring at me, but I didn't care. "…you interrupt me son of Arathorn. Just because you're king doesn't mean you rule all of us!"
"I am very sorry if I offended you, my prince," retorted Aragorn, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
This really cut me deep. That was what he always called me, his prince. And now that was all gone. I was nothing to him. All this I could tell by the way he looked at me. I struggled hard, trying not to give him the satisfaction of knowing how much he effects me. But I couldn't hold it in. No tears came, but I trembled violently, racking gasps taking over me. And to my surprise Merry stood, the last person I would expect to challenge Aragorn.
"What have you done to him, Aragorn?"
"What have I done?" The human chuckled. "Why don't you ask the elf? I'm sure he'd love to share our little secret."
"Aragorn…" I whimpered.
"Go on tell them!" he yelled. "If you're going to sit there and cry about it why shouldn't they know?"
That was the moment when I snapped. Grabbing Aragorn's shirt roughly I pinned him against the wall.
"Fistey are we?" he asked in elvish, a smirk on his face. I ignored this before saying, "You may have no pride but that's the one thing I still own." And with those last words I ran out.
"Legolas, wait!" Merry called, running after me.
*************************************************************
Everyone is changing,
There's no on left that's real,
To make up your own ending,
And let me know just how you feel…
*************************************************************
I ran to my room feeling wetness on my cheeks. I wrenched open the door and threw myself onto the bed, sobbing uncontrollably. "Why does he affect me so?" I asked myself over and over, trying to hate him, but I couldn't.
"Legolas are you alright?" These words made me sit up, afraid it might be Aragorn. "Who is it?" I asked unsteadily.
"'Tis only me Merry."
"Then come in," I said, trying to sound as normal as possible.
He walked in looking at me oddly. "Does he know?" I wondered. "What is it you want?" I asked.
"Merely to speak with you," he replied. "About Aragorn."
"So he does know," I thought. "There is more to this hobbit than meets the eye."
"What did he do to hurt you so?" asked Merry, sitting down next to me. I gazed into his eyes, knowing that he would listen to me and offer valuebule advice. Taking a deep breath I began.
"I loved him! And he betrayed my trust! He has my heart, my vows, and my innocence…And yet he tosses me away as if I am nothing! But he is everything to me, even now!"
*************************************************************
Cause I am lost without you,
I can not live at all,
My whole world surrounds you,
I stumble then I crawl…
*************************************************************
"Relax Legolas," he whispered soothingly.
"The others…" I whispered. "Don't tell them please. I don't want them to think any less of me."
"I won't tell them. But they won't think any less of you. I certainly don't"
