Winterfilth 21


" O.K. Frodo I do all the talking, I promised remember?" I say.

" sure do, now don't make us look like fools? He says.

Would I do that?

The seniors are coming into the auditorium, to watch our speeches.

So far the people who are running are Frodo and myself, bitch Cassie, and a guy named Jordan.

I stayed up for most of last night writing a speech, it took me forever, to write it.

So now here we are sitting on the stage, waiting for the election to begin.

" are you nervous?" asks Frodo.

I shrug " not really"

In the middle row I spot our friends. Frodo and I give them a wave.

Elrond goes to the microphone.

" O.K. now seniors, this shouldn't take long. After the speeches you will go to the front entrance to cast your vote. First up is Jordan." He says.

Jordan proceeds to the mike, to give his speech.

Frodo and I lean towards each other.

" he doesn't have a chance does he?" he asks.

" nope not really" I answer back.

We look at Cassie, who is staring out into the crowd almost sexually.
Most likely at Legolas too.

I really don't understand how she can still like him. He brushes her off, and pretends to go out with me. Well I tried to put a stop to that after last time.

Arwen talked to him about that, and he said he was trying to get the idea across to Cassie. Arwen thinks that is bullshit and he's just another horny guy. But I'm his best friend, you don't have thoughts like that about your best friend.

Unless he's not really Legolas, and he's just a clone. Oh no, I have to save him. Hmm could this be me nervous? But I'm not. No I'm lying, but I couldn't tell Frodo that.

" Frodo and Iliana" Elrond says into the mike.

We stand up and walk forward. I reach into my pants pocket to grab my speech. Oh wrong pocket. I go into my other, and it's not there. Oh shit. Frodo is so going to kill me.

" hey! It seems that I don't have my speech with me, but don't worry that doesn't mean I'm irresponsible, Frodo here is the most responsible person I've ever met, and he's going to kill me because I don't have the speech.

Any ways, Frodo and I want to be the Prime Ministers because we feel that we have to make this grad special " I start.

Damn I'm screwing this up.

Frodo then grabs the microphone from me and places it at his height.

He gives an excellent speech, and makes me look like a total ass. By the end he has most of the class roaring with laughter. Then there's me who would rather die.

After he finishes we sit back down and Cassie goes up.

" thank you" I whisper to Frodo.

" I did that because I had to make us look good" he whispers back.

" I thought you were afraid"

" I'd be more afraid if we ended up looking like ass's.

I grin sheepishly. I really am a retard, I'm at the same level as Legolas.

Cassie gives a short speech, then sits down.

Elrond orders the students to go to the front to vote.

We have to wait here. It won't take long to find out who won. I really hope we win.

If we lose, I'll probably go sob in a corner.

We wait for at least fifteen minutes then the others come back in.

It takes another ten minutes for Elrond to come back in.

He goes to the mike.

" we had a very close call there" he begins.

Time seems to slow down, for a second. Damn I'm impatient.

It seems like five minutes before he speaks again.

" our Prime Minister is Frodo and Iliana." He says.

I constrain myself from jumping up and screaming for joy.

The others erupt in cheers and clapping.



" I totally screwed that up so bad" I say.

My friends and I are celebrating in Mine and Legolas's rooms.

" yeah you did" agrees Frodo.

I give him a smack on the head.

Arwen comes into Legolas's living room.

" I can smell weed" she says laughing.

It's always fun to see her drunk. Aragorn is to. And I know they really want to have sex but can't because of all the people around.

Legolas, Pippin, Merry, Frodo and I are crowded on the couch. And we just smoked about seven joints between us. Life is good.

Beside me Legolas is falling asleep, because he's burning out.

I'm stuck holding him up so he doesn't fall off the couch.

He has his arm around me and his head on my shoulder.

" I'm putting you to bed" I tell him.

" hmm" he groans.

I half drag him to his room.

I dump him on the bed where he immediately curls up. I put the covers over him, then leave the room.

I bump into a guy coming in.

" hey " he says.

I look at him.

" Richard what are you doing here?" I ask.

" what can't see my Li?"

He peers into the room to see Legolas in there.

When he looks at me he's no longer smiling.

" what were you doing in there?" he asks.

" he was falling asleep so I put him to bed" I tell him.

" oh" he says and nods.

What's up with that? Am I not allowed to take care of my friend?

" I checked you place but Aragorn and Arwen cleared everyone out" he tells me.

they did? Heh heh heh.

" lets go to my room" I say, than drag him over there.
