Chapter 14
Begin To Lothlorien
Ami sat up in her bed and watched as Natalia busied herself around her packing her things.
"I am going to Lothlorien Nev." She said in almost disbelief and Natalia stopped to look at her. She smiled and walked over to her, caressing her face.
"You will be in the beautiful woods with a very beautiful Elf no?" She smirked, but Ami did not.
"I hate Legolas." She said as she cast her gaze to her hands. Natalia looked at her for a minute before she put down the dress she had in her arms and sat on the bed in front of Ami.
"What has happened?" She asked, but Ami shook her head and Natalia sighed.
"Neveth, you tell me right now what has happened!" She demanded and Ami blinked at her in surprise, but then nodded her head. She told Natalia everything Legolas had said to her in the garden, and by the time she finished, she was sniffling. Natalia sighed.
"Baby, Legolas loves you, I see it in his eyes when he looks at you."
"Then why would he say such awful things to me?" Ami cried, and Natalia shook her head.
"I do not know honey, but I do know he loves you. He was probably wild with worry for you. I should never have left you alone. It was very stupid of me." Natalia added as she stood to finish packing Ami's bags.
"Don't lecture yourself on it Nev, you are in love. You would jump off of Orthanc if Nurtaur were to do the same. People in love just do stupid stuff." Natalia laughed.
"Do you know what I think?"
"What?"
"I think there is a certain princess of Rivendell who needs to listen to the words she has just spoke."
Ami sighed and Natalia kissed her on the forehead before she walked out of the room.
~*~*~*~
Natalia was walking down the hall to find Legolas and tell him Ami was ready, but saw him walking towards her. She smiled.
"Hello Legolas." She said cheerfully. He smiled nervously.
"Is she awake?" He asked and Natalia grinned.
"Aye, and she is all packed and ready to hit the road!" Legolas looked at her with a shocked expression.
"Why ever would she want to do that?" Natalia stopped smiling and turned him in the direction of Ami's chambers.
"It is a figure of speech. You may go help her to her horse." Natalia winked and pushed Legolas before she turned and walked away. Legolas looked in the direction of Ami's chambers, then in the direction Natalia was walking.
He sighed and headed towards Ami's chambers.
~*~*~*~
Legolas let out a big sigh before he reached up and tapped lightly on the door. He remembered when he hadn't the need to knock, and was allowed to come in at will, but those days seemed to be gone. Legolas mentally slapped himself. No, him and Neveth would get through this, they just had too. A faint "Come in." was heard and Legolas said a silent prayer before he opened the door.
Ami didn't know who she was expecting to walk through that door, but it certainly was not Legolas. When she saw him her breath caught in her throat. He looked so good in his dark traveling tunic and leggings, with his dust color cape draped over his shoulders, and his quiver full of arrows and bow on his back. Ami carefully noted his beautifully made knives were there as well. Ami peeled her eyes from his body enough to see his face. He was smiling slightly, and Ami realized she had let her guard down and he had seen the emotion pass through her at the sight of him. Ami forced herself to close up and she sat up straight. Legolas seemed to get the picture, and he cleared his throat and stopped smiling.
"Nevduliniel has informed me that you are ready to depart. Though she said something quite different." Legolas said with a little chuckle in the direction of the ceiling so Ami wouldn't think he was smiling at her. The memory of what Nevduliniel had said struck him funny for some reason. His expression grew serious again however, when he caught the gaze of Ami. She was not smiling.
"Yes, I am ready." She said simply.
"All right then, I shall help you to your horse." He said as he walked over to her bed.
Ami held up her hand to halt him. "Do not bother, I can do it myself." Legolas stepped back and crossed his arms across his broad chest.
"As you wish." He said. Ami noted that he had a slight smirk on his face. She cursed herself silently. She knew she wasn't strong enough to stand on her own yet, but nooo...she had to be an independent ass hole. Ami had the feeling that he was going to enjoy this immensely. But surely she could be able to make her legs move.
Ami lifted her chin and squared her shoulders back. Using the edge of the bed for support, she stood shakily. Ami cast deadly glares down to her knees.
'Stop shaking!' She told them silently. She heard Legolas sigh and glanced up at him. He raised his eyebrow and she narrowed hers.
One leg at a time she began to move.
'Ok, this isn't so bad. Just gotta keep going like this...crap! It's the end of the bed!' She thought mentally.
Indeed she had come to the last inch of her bed and had nothing else to hold onto. She grabbed onto the post and gave a sideways glance over her shoulder.
Legolas stood there smiling. Any minute now he knew she was going to ask for his help.
Ami let out a big sigh and took another step. She made her legs one step at a time. Soon her fingers slipped from the grasp she had on the bedpost, her salvation.
As soon as she let go, she found herself unable to move.
'Aw damnit!' She thought to herself.
She let out a deep breath and tried, she thought she was doing well, until she was very much aware that the floor was coming awfully close to her face. She put her hands down in time to catch herself as she fell to her knees.
"Damnit!" She yelled and hit the floor in frustration. She was then aware of Legolas kneeling beside her. She didn't know he had been by her the minute she fell.
She sighed and rolled over to sit up on her butt. She crossed her arms and stared at him. He just sat there looking back at her. Waiting for her to ask. She finally rolled her eyes and held out her arms.
Legolas smiled and moved to her side. He lifted her up as easily as him lifting a dried leaf and headed out the door.
They walked down the hall in silence. Ami refused to look at him after the incident in the bedroom.
When they walked outside and to the stables, Ami was glad to see her father and sister, along with Estel and the Hobbits, with dwarf by side, standing there, ready to see her off.
"Atar!" She said with a smile. He smiled at her as he walked up and kissed her on the forehead.
"Please release me from this Elf's arms." She whispered in his ear as she hugged him. He pulled back with a surprised expression and looked at Legolas.
Legolas had indeed heard her and rolled his eyes. Elrond smirked, but took his daughter into his arms.
Legolas then walked over to Estel, Hobbit's and Dwarf to say his farewells. Aragorn patted the Elf's back and whispered into his ear. "Do not despair yet young Elf, she will come around." Legolas smiled thankfully and embraced his friend. Being done with that, Legolas walked over to his horse, Ainaethir and mounted swiftly.
Elrond carried Ami over to Arwen and the two sisters embraced.
"It was wonderful to see you again dear sister." Awen said with tears in her eyes as she caressed her sister's face. Ami felt her own tears sting her eyes as she pulled Arwen into an embrace.
"Aye, let us hope that our paths will not take as long to cross again." She said then sniffled.
Arwen kissed her cheek lightly, and then Elrond moved on to Aragorn.
He stood there with a smile on his face.
"Estel, twas wonderful to finally meet you!" She smiled. Aragorn reached out and took her hand. He kissed it tenderly and her smile widened.
"Likewise, little sister." Ami laughed and then her father moved on.
"Merry and Pippin! Twas truly wonderful to see you again as well!" She said and they grinned up at her. They stood on their tippie toes and Elrond bent down slightly so they could each kiss one of her cheeks.
Elrond then moved to Gimli and the dwarf huffed.
"My lady, if you do not mind in me suggesting on behalf of my friend, that you forgive Legolas. I know well that he can be an ass sometimes, but no matter how arrogant he manages to get, he is still my friend, and I still love him for it." He smiled and nodded to Legolas who placed his face in his hands and shook his head mournfully. There was no hope for him now.
Ami laughed lightly and kissed the dwarf on the cheek. His eyes widened in surprise, but then he bowed low. Elrond then moved to her horse Culadar.
He kissed her gently on the cheek before he placed her up in the saddle.
"Namaarie my dear daughter. May the Valar watch over you on your long journey. I shall truly miss you, but we shall see each other again before to long." He smiled up at her and she reached down and caressed his face.
"Namaarie Atar" She said softly with a smile. Elrond placed his hand on her delicate one, then moved it over to his lips and kissed it tenderly.
"Aut Ainaethir! Aut!" Legolas commanded his horse and immediately the horse began to walk swiftly.
Culadar began to follow Ainaethir and Ami turned in her saddle to wave one last time at everyone.
"Namaarie!" She yelled as she waved. Everyone waved back and Ami once again turned in her saddle. She couldn't look at her father any longer. He had so much pain in his eyes from watching her go. Ami let a single tear rolls down her cheek as the thought of being away from him hurt. He was her father. And she would deeply miss him.
Legolas glanced back from where he sat in his saddle when he sensed her sadness, and as if the horse could read his mind, slowed down till he was side by side with her.
"Neveth?" He asked softly. It was then that Ami realized he was beside her. She sniffed and wiped away the tear. She smiled up at him and he smiled back.
"I am just going to miss him." She said and then looked down. "Again." She said softly as she felt fresh tears sting her eyes.
Without thinking, Legolas reached over and lifted her chin to meet his gaze. They got caught in each other's stares, in a world full of love and passion. Their breath caught in their throats as they both felt unable to leave this place, so they stayed.
Culadar whined from the tension she felt from the one she bared, and that broke the spell. Ami looked down to steady her horse, and Legolas found something else to look at as well.
Ami sighed and glanced at him from the corner of her eye, and wondered just how long she would be able to stay mad at him.
~*~*~*~
Elrond watched the dust from his daughters departure dance around in the air.
Arwen walked up behind him and placed her slender hand on his shoulder.
"Atar?" She asked in her musical voice.
Elrond turned to her and Arwen was shocked at what she saw in his eyes. Tears. She had never seen her father cry before.
"I am truly sad to see her go." He said simply. Arwen smiled and pulled him into an embrace.
"She will be well again Atar. And sooner then you think." Elrond pulled away and smiled down at his eldest daughter. He leaned down and kissed her forehead lightly.
"Aye, I know." He then turned to the people of various races around him and nodded.
"I feel I need some time to myself. I shall see you all at the dinning halls." He then bowed low and turned to walk back into the halls. He walked to his study and closed the door.
He walked over to his massive desk and sat. His mind right away went wild with torturing thought of him letting his daughter down.
Soon he couldn't take it any longer and burst into tears.
~*~*~*~
At Legolas' and Nevethiriel's departure, no one was aware of another pair of eyes watching. And as soon as they had gone, Malfanion swiftly jumped up into a tall tree, then up and over the wall onto his horse that awaited him.
"If you think sending lady Nevethiriel to Lothlorien will save her Elrond, then you are greatly mistaken!" He said to himself really as he quietly commanded his horse to follow them.
He would not let his precious jewel to go unpunished.
