Expect the unexpected
Like they had said they arrived in a small town before the night settled.
The company went into an inn and they could have rooms for the night.
The four Hobbits shared on, and the two humans, the dwarf and the elf shared another one.
"What do you want to do?", Merry asked when they had unpacked their things in their room.
"Don't know. Why don't we go down and have a drink?", Pippin asked and looked hopeful at his three friends.
"Alright", Frodo said.
"I don't care, but when master Frodo is going, I'll go too", Sam said.
"Okay than. Let's go", Merry said.
Together the Hobbits walked down and sat at a table.
The landlord brought them ale and they made themselves comfortable.
From their table they could overlook the whole inn.
Frodo saw that Aragorn and Legolas were coming down the stairs.
Pippin waved and the two walked over and sat down as well.
"Why are you wearing a hood, Legolas?", Merry asked and tried to look at Legolas face, but the hood covered him up.
"Aragorn suggested that it would be safer. I don't know why, though I can take care of myself quite well", Legolas answered.
"I don't want that any harm comes to you, my friend. And besides it's only for one night", Aragorn said and patted Legolas on the shoulder
The elf gave a frustrated sigh and shook his head.
Frodo wondered how Aragorn had managed to talk Legolas into wearing this hood.
"Do you mind if I sit here?", another voice asked next to Legolas.
"Boromir! Sit down", the Ranger said before Legolas could answer.
Boromir sat down next to Legolas and for the elf's liking he sat a little too close.
The elf didn't know why, but he felt uncomfortable when Boromir was so close.
But he didn't say anything.
Soon after Boromir Gimli joined the group as well.
"Why are you wearing a hood, master elf?", Gimli asked when he sat down next to Boromir.
"Aragorn said that it would be saver that way", Legolas said and glared at Aragorn.
He didn't like it when the Ranger told him what to do, but in this situation it was the right thing to wear the hood.
Legolas knew from experiences in the past, that mortal men were attracted to him.
With this simple fact he didn't have a problem, but to some men looked at him like they would look at a whore.
They threaten him like one and they wanted to use him like one.
The elf could take care of himself quite well, but an inn full of men was even for Legolas too much.
He wouldn't have a chance if a group would decide that they want to have him.
So he followed Aragorns order and covered his face with a hood.
"It's a shame that you have to cover your face up, Legolas", Boromir whispered
The words were just loud enough for the elf to hear, not even Aragorn did hear them and his ears were nearly as keen as Legolas'.
The elf didn't like the words he heard from Boromir.
And he decided that he would keep a close eye on the Steward of Gondor.
He didn't want to risk that something happens that might break the fellowship.
"What bothers you, my friend?", asked Aragorn when he saw the emotions swirl in the elven eyes.
"I'm just tired, Aragorn. No need to worry", Legolas tried to calm his friend.
"Maybe you should go and sleep", Gimli suggested.
"Yes, I think that I should do that. Goo night", Legolas said and stood up.
The blond elf disappeared behind a corned and made his way into his and Gimli's room.
When they were sure that Legolas couldn't hear them, Merry and Pippin looked at Aragorn, while Frodo asked:
"I thought that elf doesn't wear themselves out so quickly. What is wrong with, Legolas?"
"I don't know, Frodo. Something must bother him, I have no other explanation", the Ranger answered.
"Maybe someone should go and see what the crazy elf is up to", Gimli suggested.
"I'll go", Boromir said.
The rest of the company looked up.
They were surprised that from all people Boromir would care for the elf.
They didn't see Boromir once talking to elf about something that hasn't something to do with their journey.
"If you want to, Boromir. But I wouldn't mind, if I have to go", Aragorn said.
Merry and Pippin smiled at each other when they heard the Rangers words.
"No, I'll go. I want to go to bed after I talked to him. I wish you a good night", Boromir said and walked away with a strange look in his eyes.
Boromir stood in front of Legolas and Gimli's room.
He raised his hand and knocked at the door.
"Yes?", he could hear Legolas asking from inside.
"Can I come in?", Boromir asked.
"...", there was a silence.
"Legolas?". Boromir asked.
"Yeah, come in, Boromir", he elf said.
Boromir opened the door and entered the room.
He closed the door behind him.
The Steward of Gondor didn't want anybody to interrupt him and Legolas.
After he closed the door he turned around to see Legolas sitting on his bed, back against the headboard.
"What do you want, Boromir?", the elf asked suspicious.
"We were worried about you, Legolas. And Aragorn decided that I should go and see what is wrong with you", Boromir told the elf.
"Aragorn send you? Why didn't he come here himself?", Legolas asked.
He didn't understand why Aragorn would send Boromir, when he could come himself and see what is wrong.
Normally Aragorn is the first person the stand in front of Legolas door when he knew or feared that something is wrong.
And right now, Legolas would have preferred Aragorns company over Boromirs.
"He had so much fun down there with the Hobbits and the dwarf. He didn't want to see you, Legolas."
Boromirs words echoed in Legolas head.
Why didn't Aragorn want to see him?
Had he done something wrong?
Was the Ranger mad at him for something he didn't even notice?
Boromir saw that Legolas was confused.
He walked over to the bed and sat down.
Legolas didn't notice Boromirs presence next to him until the man sat down on the bed.
"I only want to know what bothers you, fair elf", these words Legolas didn't like.
"Nothing bothers me, Boromir. I want to be alone right now, could you please leave?", Legolas asked.
"I could, but I don't want to", whispered Boromir.
The man leaned down so that his face was right in front of Legolas.
"What do you want?", Legolas asked, fear was rising in him.
The elf tried to back away, but he was sitting against the headboard and so he couldn't escape.
"You'll see soon enough", Boromir said and leaned even further down.
His lips brushed against Legolas.
AN: Is Legolas going to accept the kiss or not?
