1 Chapter 7 – Chocolates-part 1
Summary: Well...since this is named chocolates, I figured it had better be extra long, and extra interesting Also, anyone with ideas that could help, pleeese take pity and put them in the reveiw! I'm not completely out of inspiration, but getting there, but all I can say is that I don't think everything will be as happy as it seems....after these next 2 'happy' chapters! If I get another 5 reviews from ppl I don't know, I'll see about some extras that aren't part of the story, that I have but can't really be bothered to post, as tey have nuttin to do with the story! Also, out of interest, (and aiming to please) I'd like to know alternate endings, who Alcarin should get together with...please put in your review!!
"So, Legolas, what will you tell me of Elves? Living away from our people, I know not enough to satisfy my curiosity!" She said, as he led her to the dance floor for the first dance of the evening. He smiled back at her, and replied softly "What would you have me tell you, Alcarin?"
She laid her head on his shoulder for a moment. "Anything you think will interest me. A love story?" He smiled as her head touched his tunic, but she could not see.
Eros, however could. Anariel also could, and (to prevent possible tension) she turned them to dance far away from the prince and his lovely partner. She sighed inwardly, this was meant to be a chance for every elf maid to enjoy herself, but it didn't look like she was going to have so much luck. "So, Eros, you have not forgotten me, I trust?" She laughed, as he looked down upon her. "Nay, Anariel. How could it be possible to forget or hurt an innocent maid, who has done no wrong? 'Tis naught that any elf should be so cold!" She thought perhaps his words were more to himself, than to her, and of deeper meaning. "Then I trust you will honour our friendship, and to escort myself and Lady Alcarin on a picnic?" She watched him work it out. It took seconds. "I would be proud to do so."
The dance finished, and Anariel elegantly hurried to where Alcarin stood, next to Legolas. She was –almost- missing the love-lorn look in the princes eyes, but saw enough to make her a little nervous. Anariel dragged her friend away to a corner, in which a few chairs were luxuriously sprawled. Alcarin, of course, was a little excited. Hyper, she told herself, just a little hyperactive! Anariel sat her down, both facing the enormous hall, and keeping a wary eye out for males!
"Alcarin, you do realise that both Eros and Legolas have, ummm, they care for you?" Alcarin could have been hit with a sledgehammer (A/N:But they don't have them in middle earth, so tree...). Or at least slapped.
"Don't be stupi...Do you really think so?" She breathed, making both girls giggle slightly. "Yes, Eros has hardly taken his eyes off you all evening, and Legolas, well..." They laughed again, both keeping an eye out for the prince, his trusty companion, and any one else, and saw a peculiar sight. King Thranduil had beckoned a messenger over to him, and pointed at the two girls. The messenger was now coming towards them.
"What do you think the King wants?" Asked Anariel, a little timid. Alcarin did not know, but rose, her friend following suit, to greet the elf. The elf bowed. "Lady Anariel, Lady Alcarin. King Thranduil begs that you would spare him a moment of your time?" They assented, and followed the messenger to where the king awaited them. Alcarin whispered "It can't be too bad, he is Legolas' father!" Making Anariel chucked slightly, then they both stiffened under the King's watchful eye........
So folks, there we go!
I know I've stopped it in an annoying place, but it was either that or no chapter for a while, so I figured, hey, may as well put it up in two parts!
