(Elrohir's POV)
'I.I love you too much to see you get hurt.'
These words made my blood stop in my veins. I struggled to breathe but was unable to. Glorfindel.my friend.my mentor.*loved* Legolas?
No, no this is not right, it's a trick I thought desperately.
'You.you love me?' whispered Legolas.
'Yes,' came the barley audible reply.
It was all I could do not to cry out in pain. It was as if a fist was wrapped around my heart and was squeezing it. Everything had happened so fast, so fast that everything was a blur of color, light, and sound, but the one thing I knew was that I loved Legolas, and that he loved me back. It was all that mattered. We may have only known each other for a few days but we loved each other. We loved each other.
'I have wanted to tell you for so long.' came the gentle voice I had heard since I was a child. It had comforted me whenever Elladan was cruel to me, but now it was anything but comforting. Every single word uttered from Glorfindel's lips was like a knife slicing at my skin, determined to make me bleed. And he was succeeding.
'No,' came Legolas's voice, the voice that I loved more than life itself. I was so numb that I couldn't hear the words anymore, just the voices, one that made my heart leap with joy and one that was slowly destroying it.
Then the voices went quiet. Curious I looked out from my hiding spot only to see something that made me choke.
Glorfindel kissing Legolas.
Tears welled up in my eyes I tried in vain not to sob. The noise caught the attention of the two blonde elves, and they turned to look at me.
'Elrohir,' said Legolas, looking stricken, but I didn't hear him. The only thing that I could feel at the moment was pain. The vision of them kissing played over and over in my mind, and I didn't feel him wrapping an arm around my shoulder.
Wrenching away I ran out of the room, tears streaming down my face, ignoring the cries of my name that came from behind me.
