A/N: Whoot! The last chapter is finished! This is all folks, so I hope you
enjoyed it! It was a fun run! Maybe I'll write another LOTR fanfic.Until
then my friends.By the way, R/R!! Same disclaimers as before..HUGE NOTE!
The song at the bottom is by Metallica, it is theirs, not mine, I just
thought it fit well with my story. They could TRY to sue me legally I
guess, but they wouldn't get much.
Her heart leapt as her hand connected with the feeling of flesh. It was colder, and smoother then his real skin, but it did not matter to him or to her as she feel into his outstreched arms. He caught her, and held her there.
This must be what heaven is , she thought. After many moments of them holding each other, crying into each other, she had to ask. Yet she was afraid to break the wonderful spell that was over them.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Aragorn caught his only love and held her, and held her. As much as he had saved her, he had saved himself as well. They cried together for so long that the sun began to turn rosy red, sending a pink light over the whole land. He could feel her want to ask him how, and why.
He knew the reason why THEY had let him come, and THEY had permitted him until sundown to be with her, and to explain. Their time was running out. He rose her face to his own, and spoke.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Arwen felt her head raise, and tears dripping still down her face, she listened as he spoke. His voice seemed to come from a long distance, but she heard clearly what he said.
"My love. My wife. I am really here, but I must go soon." He paused allowing her heart to rise, then crash terribly low, to the depths of her stomach.
"I will be soon to follow you then, my Estel." He was her estel, her hope. "I can not live without you."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Aragorn shook his head. The sun was fading faster, so he needed to be swift in his words. He NEEDED her to hear this.
"No, my love. You will. You must." Seeing her about to speak, he went on, "I am dwelling in a land outside the gates to heaven. There I will remain until your years are spent. For it would not be heaven for me without you."
He placed a finger over her lips. "However, if you die by your own hand, you will go into the deep depths below, and so would I, and we will be forever separated." He watched her, seeing her pained reaction. She spoke, "So we...we are to be together?"
He smiled tenderly at her, "Yes, my love. It is our destiny. My name you choose to speak, 'Estel', do not let go of it. There is always estel."
He could feel himself glide away, and they kissed slowly and tenderly until his time had passed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Arwen felt him slipping, and hugged him all the more closely, yet he was inevitably torn from her until she was left kissing air.
A solitary tear slipped down her cheek. She turned to where her knife lay. She left it there. She had no more use for it. She turned to glide away. She whispered only the one word in passing his grave. "Estel."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So close, no matter how far,
Couldn't be much more from the heart.
Forever trust in who we are,
And nothing else matters.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE END A/N: I KNOW elves and men don't go to the same place, but in my fic they are, because I love them.
