DISCLAIMER: I still don't own any of Tolkien's characters. But I own Delin
YAY go me. I also own the root (read to find out what I mean) ^_^ OK so
maybe that's going a bit far. R/R ppl!
Legolas knew not where he was headed. He did not wish to return to his chambers because if Arwen was about to come looking for him she would go there first. He quickened his pace through the winding corridors. In his head thoughts danced about his mind. 'I shouldn't have asked her.' Was his initial thought as he walked towards the palace doors. 'No. I did the right thing asking her. I was not being nosy. Delin isn't all *that* special. She knows naught about him. There is no such thing as love at first sight.'
The daylight seemed blinding. He shielded his eyes and continued to walk, into the forest. He looked up at the flets. A few were empty since many had fled after the Spiders and other dark forces made Greenwood the great into Mirkwood the dark. 'Or is there such a thing as love at first sight?' Legolas cast his mind back to when he and lady Arwen had been elflings. ' *that* was love at first sight.' He sighed to himself. He realised that he didn't need to ask her how she felt about Delin. Because he already knew. She liked him. Probably a lot. Something in his stomach churned when he remembered that Delin liked *her* . Probably a lot.
Legolas felt an emptiness rear its head inside him. His walk became a run. 'What am I running from?' he thought. 'I am running from my feelings. I am a fool. I should have just told her. Told her that I-' his thoughts were broken when he tripped and fell over a hidden root protruding from the ground. He groaned as he got to his feet. There was a large gash to his left calve. It pained him a little but was bleeding a lot. He knew he would have to stop to heal himself. He looked up once more at the flets. He slowly climbed the narrow steps onto the platform and sat down against the trunk of the tree.
He closed his eyes. He was already tired from running so he knew it would take double the time and double his strength to heal himself.
"Ouch" came a soft voice.
Legolas watched as a small pair of hands pulled hard at the step pulling a small dark haired elf maiden onto the flet.
"Mae govannen" Arwen smiled faintly.
Legolas sighed. He knew deep down that she would find him, he just didn't want it to be true. He looked at she put her finger in her mouth, renoved it and then examined it carefully. "What is the matter?" Legolas asked. "Ai! Should not be so nosy should I? Your business is no concern of mine." He added sarcastically.
Arwen nodded. She knew she deserved that. She decided not to answer and stood silently picking at the splinter caught in her delicate finger.
"You do not need to tell me how you feel Arwen." Legolas said without lifting his head to her.
She eyed him cautiously. What was he talking about? She stood in silence for several seconds. "What do you mean?"
"Y- you are in-" he took a deep breath. "You are in love with Delin."
Arwen's eyes widened in shock. Yes, she found Delin attractive and charming, but she did not love him. Not *really* . "Not Delin." She replied simply, sitting herself down beside him.
Legolas looked up at her. He searched her face. "Then who-"
He was broken off. She brushed his lips with hers. "You."
