and rewrote this chapter about 10 times) I wanted to make it perfect :D I
hope you like it! Peace!
Chapter 3:
"Legolas, Legolas! Open this door" it was the king calling for him outside his door. In a split second Legolas took a chance and climbed out of the balcony. He ran to the stables, got his horse and rode to Moltolas River where he could be alone with his thoughts.
Legolas opened his eyes. He had been dreaming about the events of the day before but something had disturbed his sleep. Something was moving on his chest. He looked down and saw a huge spider crawling on him. He flicked it off with his hand with a loud "arghhhhh" and jumped to his feet. He immediately started pulling at his hair and brushing his skin in case something else had crawled on him. Suddenly he heard a laugh. A very high- pitched, cheerful laugh belonging to a female. He looked up at the tree which he was sleeping under and there he found her.
"Adelaide! I knew it! I will never forgive you for this!" he said angrily.
Legolas had not seen her for almost 6 months. She had been living in Lothlorien with Arwen and her family for the past 5 years to complete her education, only visiting Mirkwood in the holidays. Before that she lived in the palace in Mirkwood with her mother, her uncle the king and her cousins Legolas and Lara. Now that she has finished her education, she will return to palace once again.
Adelaide jumped down from the tree and walked over to Legolas. She was almost as tall as him with long brown hair and clear green eyes. She was dressed very elegantly in a baby blue short sleeve dress, her hair flowing behind her. This was out of the ordinary for her. Legolas was used to seeing her wearing a shirt and knee length skirt with legging underneath with her hair tied back in a bun so she could be free to do what the boys did.
"My dear cousin, you should have seen the look on your face" she fell into another fit of laughter. Legolas tried to ignore that. He looked her up and down making her suddenly feel self-conscious.
"Well, you look very nice today" he said as he leaned over and gave her a hug at the same time, he grabbed her, threw her over his shoulder, walked over to the river and threw her in!
She screamed at the top of her lungs. "You son of an orc! You've ruined my dress!"
"That's what you get for messin' with the Prince!" he said puffing up his chest and putting his hands on his hips.
Banquo woke from the noise, "What's going on?" he said climbing to his feet. Then he saw her, "Princess Adelaide!" he shouted walking over to the river and pulling her up by the hand.
"I missed you, where have you been?", he said giving her a hug.
"Around, you know how it is" she stuttered. Adelaide was startled for two reasons. Firstly she didn't expect such a greeting from him. It had always been a simple hand shake or a punch on her arm. Secondly, her internal reaction was alarming. Her heart beat faster and her whole body trembled at his touch. She had never in her life experienced anything like that feeling and wondered what it could possibly mean.
Ok I just read one of the reviews. I hope its not too predictable (
