"Bag End"

"You must take it!" Eyes wide, Frodo holds the Ring out to him, and Gandalf wavers between what he thinks is right, and what he hopes to do. Frodo moves closer, and it seems the easiest thing to hold out his hand and let the small weight fall into his palm.

Voice of gold, and Frodo smiles, looks relieved. Gandalf turns the Ring over in his fingers, listening the whispers, and wonders. Closes his hand around warm metal and hopes he has not just made the worst mistake of his long life.

It will be safer with him, after all.
