Hi y'all! Thanks for all the reviews. Now I will answer you're questions…It IS Legolas' child. I mean really…Lol how many men do you know of that would put up with a temperamental, PMSie woman? Lol LEGOLAS of course! Thanks for all the reviews. …And I'm sensing a sequel? I'll probably tell of what they're life is like with a lil baby around…Good Idea? Okay. And also I will be skipping through 8 months of Tara's pregnancy because…Man, It's just boring…Ya know?? Hehe. So I'm gonna have months go by, so it will be quicker than usual. Then I'll skip to where the child can speak. It makes it more interesting. Ya know? So…yeah.

Chapter 17 ::Elves ARE prone to fainting.::

(In Legolas' bedchambers.)

Tara didn't know when she was going to tell Legolas that she was pregnant. Now that she had woken up and Legolas was nagging her, asking her various questions like, 'What happened? Are you OK? Do you feel well? Do you want me to brush your hair?' Which she'd reply with 'No'.

Legolas sat by her side staring at her.

Is he going to stop staring at me? He's kinda scaring me. See…*Waves hand in front of Legolas' face.* Nothing…No sign of life. Men. That's what's wrong with him…He has a male brain. Yup…He needs a brain healer.

Legolas was now playing with Tara's hair. "Legolas stop. Please? Your really buggin me." Legolas grinned, "Isn't that the point?"

Tara shot back at him, "Didn't the doctor say NO ANNOYANCES or I'll die?" Legolas immediately stopped annoying her.

"Legolas?" Legolas stood up and walked to the window. "Legolas…I need to tell you something…Maybe you should sit down?" Legolas ignored her, "Legolas, I'm pregnant."

Legolas spun around and stared for a few moments, before going pale, mumbling something, and passing out.

"Shit, I knew the ninnie couldn't take it." Tara rolled her eyes as the guards came in to see what the noise was from.

"Milady, is he alright?" The guard was very worried, "He's fine." Tara smirked, "Just bring him over and lay him down, he should wake up in awhile." And of course Legolas did wake up within a few hours.

(Several hours later.)

"Y-Y-our pregnant?" Legolas still hadn't gotten it in his head that he was to become a father.

"The doctor said I was about eight months…I didn't know until yesterday."

Arwen looked at her daughter, "I didn't know until I was seven months along…My family has a problem with our women being skinny…So we don't show when we're pregnant until a doctor tells us…Or we go into labor…One of the two."

Tara blinked, "Good to know mom. Wish you would've told me that…Oh…I dunno…Earlier!?" Arwen smiled, "Well I didn't know that was what you two were doing." Tara glared, "Uh mom, when your engaged you usually do…do that." Legolas just sat there.

"She's pregnant?" Legolas asked pointy at Tara.

"No shit." Tara screeched.

Legolas jumped. "I really should go!!" He darted out the door.

(Four hours later.)


Tara was sound asleep in Legolas' bed. Legolas crept in and laid a note down on his pillow. Eru, I hope she understands. He thought as he placed a kiss on her brow and left.

(The next morning.)

Tara rolled over and mumbled a curse word, then noticed the note beside her and picked it up.

My Dearest Tara,

I don't know how to explain this…Really I don't. I don't know if I'm ready to be a father yet. I know…I know…Most elves would kill to be me, right now. But it's unnerving knowing that I'm to be a father…I doubt you understand though. So I have decided to go to Rivendell for a while to get my thoughts straight. I will be going orc hunting for the Lord Elrond. I hope you understand.

Amin Mela Lle, (I love you.)

Legolas.

Tara's face was red with anger, and sadness, "DOES HE NOT UNDERSTAND THAT I AM TO GIVE BIRTH IN A WHILE?!!!!!?!" Arwen ran into Tara's room, "What's wrong?!"

Tara's face was pale, "He's left. He's left me…and the baby. For a MONTH OR FUCKIN SO!!!" Arwen looked so angry at that moment…She looked almost as red as the Eye of Sauron.

Tara started to cry. "Why me? Huh just why me?"

Then an idea struck her, write him a letter. "Meriyl, fetch me a pen and some paper please! I have a letter to write."

Meriyl grabbed her lady a pen and paper.

Dearest Legolas,

Your apparently dumber then I thought…Oh yeah, I meant to say, I send my love…Well that changed when you left me when I was eight months pregnant. I fear for your country when you become King. That's why you need me. I'll keep the place together while you hide from your fears.

With my best regards, and trying not to hold grudges,

Taraneth daughter of Aragorn and Arwen.

Okay guys. This is the end of the line for this story. I'm writing the sequel. Which should be up… In like a day. It's about a year later, after Taraneth has the baby. Legolas still hasn't returned home yet, because he's been held up. By something. I don't know what…Okay so It gives the story a lil mystery…and some of it could be for my lack of intelligence…but that's not the point…or is it? Lol. Jk. Well I hope you enjoyed this one. Plus another point is…I really wanted to make a story about what it was like for Tara to be a mother…Ya dig? K. Lata. Here's The link to my sequel…I really hope you like it…I'm doing it from the prospective of what it'd be like if I were a mother…of Legolas' child…so…yeah. http://fanfiction.net/read.php?storyid=1090034
