Chapter 50--Confrontations
They party of she warriors were obviously in a hurry to get where they were going. Jaisia came up beside the leader's horse. (What should we do?) she asked.
(I actually do not think we are in danger. We are not bound and we have our weapons and I have no feeling of danger) Legolas replied.
(Do you think they are allies?) Jaisia asked.
(I am not sure, but we will find out tonight when we set up camp) Legolas said.
(Be careful) Jaisia said.
Finally at dusk they stopped for the night. Legolas slid off Deirdre's horse as soon as she would let him. "What is the hurry? You have somewhere to go?" she asked.
"Indeed, as far from you as I can get," Legolas said.
Deirdre just laughed and got busy tending her horse. After the horses were tended. Supper was cooked and served.
Legolas was starting to feel uneasy by the fact Deirdre stayed close to his side. He stood suddenly and walked over to Jaisia's side and sat down out of her reach.
Deirdre was grinning, undisturbed. "You know you have the nicest arse I have seen in a long time," she remarked.
Legolas felt himself blushing as the other women laughed.
Jaisia somehow couldn't keep from giggling a little as well. (I am sorry, little brother, but I do not see you blush often. Your ear tips are even red) she said.
(Oh, shut up) Legolas growled.
(Be nice or I will tell them what your nickname is) Jaisia teased.
(Do not do that I do not want her to be encouraged) Legolas said, trying to get himself under control.
"Want to share my bedroll? There is room for two if we squeeze real close," Deirdre leered.
Legolas scowled at her and refused to answer. He turned his attention to his meal though he wasn't really hungry anymore.
Jaisia was giggling even harder now, even though she knew she shouldn't. She had never seen Legolas so flustered before.
Legolas was relieved when Deirdre said nothing more for the rest of the meal.
Three hours after supper everyone began to spread out their bedrolls except the three that had first watch. Deirdre caught Legolas' eye and patted her bedroll invitingly. "Plenty of room as I said, love," she repeated.
Legolas turned his back then went over to Jaisia and settled down next to her, ignoring her chuckle. He was tense with annoyance and didn't think he would get much sleep tonight.
Jaisia noticed right away. (Relax, little brother, she is just picking on you. Ignore her) she said comfortingly. (Go to sleep, here, I will sing you the lullaby my mother used to sing to Kai and I when we were foals) she said and began to sing.
Soothed by the song that only he could hear, Legolas drifted into reverie. He woke the next morning, feeling much better. Jaisia went over to get their share of breakfast.
Deirdre came over to Legolas while she was gone. She sat down beside him. "So why are you and the centaur going to Tyr Gyleth?" she asked.
"That is no one's concern, but ours," Legolas said. "Where are you taking us?"
"That is no one's concern, but ours," Deirdre teased. "We will be riding together again today and we will discuss it further then." She left just as Jaisia returned.
Jaisia handed Legolas his plate before settling down beside him and digging in.
Legolas started on his as well, trying to ignore the fact that Deirdre was staring at him with an amused expression on her face.
Much to soon for Legolas they were ready to go.
"Come on, love, do not make me come over there and get you!" Deirdre called when Legolas didn't come over to her.
Legolas did so, but mounted himself, ignoring her offer of help.
"Proud little thing are you not?" Deirdre remarked. She mounted behind him and the group rode off at a gallop….
Hehe, this is fun, letting someone flirt with Legolas!!!! R/R please!!!
