"What are you?" Pippin asked running his hand up Branwyn's leg. They lay in his bed, covered by the large blanket. He was at the head of the bed and she was at the bottom.
"What do you mean?" she replied moving up to lay next to him.
"Are you a Hobbit, elf, dwarf…what?"
"I'm an element nymph," she ran her hand over his chest and stomach. He twitched. "What?"
"Your hands are cold," she smiled and ran her hand under the sheet. She slowly moved her hand up his stomach causing him to shudder. Her hand traveled the rest of his stomach and up his chest. She lightly dragged her fingertips alongside his neck. She brushed his unruly curly hair away from his pointed Hobbit ear. She shifted her position to being even closer to him.
"Hey Pip," Merry said as he swung open the bedroom door and walked in. Branwyn let out a yelp and grabbed the sheet, covering her body. Merry did his best to stifle his upcoming laugh. "Um…you know what never…never mind I can see that you're busy. I'll come back later." Merry walked out of the room.
Slowly Branwyn inched out from under the sheet. "Do you think he knows I was here?"
"I'm pretty sure," he laughed.
"Great," she lay back down, with her head resting on Pippin's chest. He didn't
Say anything but he ran his fingers through her hair. She closed her eyes, listening to the rhythmic beating of Pippin's heart and breathing.
"Branwyn?"
"Mmmhmm?"
"How long will you be staying here?"
"As long as you need me too,"
"That's good," he replied. "Branwyn?"
"Hmm?" she was beginning to drift into sleep.
"I'm very fond of you…and I…I think that I'm in love with you…"
"Mmmhmm,"
He smiled and rested his arm across her back. For the first time since he could remember he was happy.

The crow flew over head getting closer to the Shire. He knew his purpose. With each flap and passing glance he was getting closer and he would be there soon.
