*~*~*~*~*~* What they don't see *~*~*~*~*~*~*

The sun has already risen and I gaze out into the new day. I look around me and observe the rest of the Fellowship. The hobbits are still sleeping while Gandalf is looking at the horizon without moving. Boromir and Gimli are snoring rather loudly and Aragorn is missing. He has acted like this for some while. Trying to ignore the fact that the two of us have to talk. We have to discuss the future of our love; if their even is a future for the two of us together. I have the feeling that he knows that we can not remain as we are and therefore wants to evade any discussion. I sigh.

By the time Aragorn is back everyone is up and about. Merry and Pippin are eating, as usual, while Boromir is teaching Frodo some swordmoves. Aragorn passes by me and brushes my shoulder. To one of the Fellowship our touch looks casual, normal. But for me and my lover it is everything that we have on our journey.

It is late into the next night when I feel Aragorn sitting down next to me. We have stopped for the nicht and are all enjoying the warmth of a small fire. Gandalf is telling stories but now that he is with me I don not listen. I can not. Every fiber of my body is pulled towards him and I lean to the side, resting against him. No one notices. He gently runs a hand over my back and I revel in his touch. All too soon, everyone prepares for the night.

He has the first watch. As he sits there, silhuetted by the moonlight I hope for better times. I try to sleep but my thoughts wabder to the perilious road that is before us. Not only the road of the Fellowship, but my and Aragorns road. Where will it lead?

Soon he comes over to me and whispers my name. "Legolas, it is time for your watch." I rise and he takes my hand in his and quickly presses it to his lips. I smile and head off to my watchpost.

Soon the night is over and we continue. What will happen?
