Chapter6: Legolas' Thoughts

Aerin sank back against the door, breathing heavily. "God, he's beautiful," she thought to her self. Pushing herself away from the door she sighed, "and yet he can never be fully mine." She whispered.

Turning towards the bathroom, she headed towards the door thinking think a long hot bath would wash all the pain away.

After she had bathed, she emerged from the bathroom and looked about. Finally she spotted a white nightgown hanging on a chair in a corner. Pulling it over her head she walked across the cold tiles, to her bed. She slid in and sighing with contentment she fell slowly into a world of dreams where she saw a beautiful elf gazing at her.

After Aerin had shut her door, Legolas stood in place for a moment or two then slowly turned way, heading back to his rooms with a light heart.

Everything was going his way. The remaining fellowship would arrive tomorrow to celebrate the fall of Sauron and he had found the girl of his dreams. He grinned, nothing could be better. He started to jog out of pure blitz, but soon slowed to a walk, when his thoughts turned from the fellowship to Aerin.

"What is she hiding?" he asked himself and evidently he said it a little loud, for Elrond stepped out of the trees and into the light.

Legolas stopped mid-thought and stared at Elrond in disbelief. "Had he heard?" he wondered, and as if to answer his unspoken thought Elrond spoke.

"She runs from her father, Lord Vicar." He stated bluntly waiting for Legolas's reaction.

"L..L...Lord Vicar?!?!" he questioned in disbelief as Elrond nodded. "How?"

"That is for her to tell you. I just merely shed a little light on the subject." Elrond said looking at him with a piercing gaze.

"How do you know so much? If you don't mind my asking, and is she evil?" he asked hoping with all his heart that she was pure.

"I saw it in her heart, and she does have the poetical to become evil, if she gives in." he stated, and seeing that Legolas was panicked, he said hurriedly "but she is not evil yet, and hopefully she will never be, if she excepts our help."

"Our help?" he questioned eyes turning to fix on Elrond.

"Yes. If she excepts we will teach her to defend her self against evil." Elrond said looking towards her darkened windows.

"But she is not strong enough to..." he started, but Elrond interrupted, "Do not judge her by what you see, Legolas, she is stronger than you think." His voice matter-of-fact, " Her training will begin the day after the remaining fellowship arrives." He continued.

Legolas sighed, looking away. "I do not judge by what I see, my lord." He said turning back to Elrond but he had disappeared once more into the trees.

He sighed, not liking the fact that in a few days he would be teaching his beloved the fighting arts. He turned and walked slowly back to his room, pondering about how good she would be at fighting.

He soon realized that he had reached his door, and he turned the knob entering his domain.

After he had striped himself of his finery, a green velvet tunic, and matching breeches, he lowered his body into the warm water of the tub. Closing his eyes he dozed for about 15 minutes when he decided to get out and get in to his bed. Rising slowly from the bath, water dripping down his perfect frame, he grabbed a towel and quickly dried off.

Pulling on a pair of soft breeches and a shirt he jumped into bed, and fell asleep dreaming of the perfect day he would have tomorrow.
