Chapta 4! I know what you're sayin': Finally! More of this story! I've been waitin' for centuries, Periot Mist! Yeah, well, this is extra long for all my fans out there! *blows kisses*
Disclaimer: I own none of Tolkien's characters. I just own Peridot and all those other people you've never heard of.
Hall of Fame: Rayne Maker, who has updated her WONDERFUL story, Reign of Leaves. If you like mine but are sick of waiting, go read hers. Besides, hers is way better than mine and you will like it. Blah, blah blah. Many thanks to all who review!
Authors Note:I apologize for the past chapter being so cheezy. Also, I have a new roomate!~"You do not. I live on your shoulder and make you do bad things to your characters. I am bad! I am evil! I am...Mojo Jojo! No, wait..." "Actually, this is Walter, the devil that lives on my right shoulder. He is in a phone booth right now, probably plotting against me with Gregory, Rayne Maker's devil. Hmmm..." Anyway, WALTER MUST FACE DOOM because his is currently messing up my next chapters. Yeah. Well, here it tis, the one, the only....

After Peridot finished her story, they spent a moment in silence. In order to break it Erianwen inquired about her best buddy's home (A/N: That's Earth, in case you've forgotten. Heh, yeah, right. Only two chapters in between right?). After about fifteen minutes a little lightbulb flashed above Erianwen's head. Not really. "Wait a minute..." she statrted asking questions, and finishing Peridot's sentences. "You learn fast, my dear friend." "No, this sounds familiar. Like I've been there before. But that's immpossible, isn't it?" "Well, I'm here now, aren't I?" Erianwen nodded, then spoke softly, "How far do the grades go up again?" "Twelve, then colledge." "And were you in 11th before you came here?" (A/N: In case you were wondering, she is 16 years old) Peridot nodded slowly. "Now, somehow the number 8,529,587 keeps popping into my head." (A/N: PLEASE do not call that number. I just made it up off the top of my head, its probably some Digital Coaster Co. or something. That, as far as I am concerned, is not a real number.) "Yes!!! That was my best buddy's phone number! Her name was-" "-****** *****?"(A/N: I need my buddy's permission before I give you her real name!) "YES! That's you! You're her! She's you! AHHHHHHHH!" They started to run down the hallways, looking for someone, but it was noon and everyone was eating lunch some place or another. "Maybe we should keep it to ourselves," they whispered at the same time. A rhythmetic giggle escaped their mouths. "Well, let me get the note to send out for Legolas, and we'll join the others for lunch." They went back to Peridot's room talking and laughing, and barely had time to shut the door while Peridot searched before someone knocked on it.
Peridot paused as she blew dust from her hair (A/N: She had been searching under the bed; we all know how that goes) before saying, "Come in." The elf that entered the room could not have made a more perfect entrance in Peridot's eyes (A/N: I'll give give you three guesses, and the first two don't count). It was-(A/N: WALTER! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
A/N: Sorry everybody. At the most dramatic part Walter had to go and destroy all my files on my other computer (I have one on the internet and one for school projects and the Sims)! Shame on him! *throws a death glare at Walter doing a happy dance because he was destructive*Anyway...

"Legolas!" Peridot practically screamed, and she ran to him while Erianwen smiled. Peridot gave him a tight hug and hung on to him, saying, "I'm so glad you're back! Why did you go? Don't ever leave me again! You can ask Erianwen, I was crying the whole time almost, I missed you so much! I am so glad you've come back!!!" Erianwen nodded. Legolas smiled and kissed Peridot sweetly on her nose. "I've missed you terribly. Come, I have something to show you." And he led her down the halls to his room.
After closing his door carefully he drew Peridot into a soft kiss that made her lips tingle (A/N: Aww, get a room, you two ; ). When he pulled away he smiled as her eyes were wide. She grinned and leaned into him again, but he put a finger to her lips. "I brought you a present," he said as he backed to the bathroom door. He opened it slowly and gestured for Peridot to peek inside.
Wrapped up in a blanket in the middle of the floor was the cuddliest, fluffiest, most adorable little wolf cub she had ever seen.
"Awwwwwww!" she cooed. She kneeled on the floor beside it and carefully stroked its soft head and paws. She cooed again as the pup yawned (A/N: Everybody say Aww!) and she gently picked it up, blanket and all. Its bluish eyes looked up at her and she struggled not to coo for the third time (A/N: Believe me, it WAS NOT EASY!). It snuggled up against her.
"I think I'll call her Kaci. Oh, thank you, thank you Legolas! This is the best present I've ever gotten!" she whispered as she looked lovingly at the now sleeping bundle of fur in her arms. "She's so precious!" (A/N: Woah, flashback! "It came to me, my own, my prrrecioussss...") She did her best to hug Legolas without putting Kaci down, simply because she couldn't. 'Elves are so thoughtful!'

So, what do you think? Any better? (crickets chirping in the background, pin drops and the echoes ring through the world) Oh, I know you're out there, I can hear you snoring and yawning. I also hear you thinking of reviewing. ~Walter- O_o~ Please? Oh, well. The next one will be MUCH better, I promise! And much more exciting. The chapter will be called "A threat from the Shadows", but you won't read it unless you review! Power to the people! Yeah, whatever.
