Diena opened her eyes and rolled over. She had the most wonderful dream. It was all about Legolas. She noticed that there was something on her pillow.

A single rose.

So it hadn't been a dream after all. He knew how she felt. Smiling and stretching, Diena wondered what she should do today. Apart from how sore her butt was (from falling out of the tree) she had never felt so calm and comfortable.

There was a light knock at her door.

"Come in!" she called.

A dark head popped in. Arwen. A huge smile broke out on her face as soon as she saw Diena still in bed. Rushing in, Arwen plopped down on Diena's bed like a little girl.

"So...?"

"So what?" Diena asked, the smile still plastered on her face.

"Was I right? Did he speak?" Arwen was eager to know what had happened with her friends.

"Hmm... He didn't speak exactly."

Arwen's eyes doubled their size. She knew exactly what Diena was saying. Her grin doubled it's size also.

"Tell me everything, Diena!"

The whole story rushed out, Diena remembering it all. After he had kissed her, Legolas had looked at her and spoken in elvish. Diena repeated what he said for Arwen.

Letting out a quite un-elf-like squeal, Arwen translated. "Diena! That is wonderful! He said that he loved you."

Laying back in her bed, Diena was stunned. Arwen put her hand on her friend's and laughed.

"Elves are not like people, Diena. We do not go from mate to mate. We find one and stay with them until death. Legolas has found his partner!"

But Diena shook her head. "Arwen! Don't you see how this cannot work? I am human! I will die and he will not! He will be left with no one! It cannot work, I must go tell him." She got up to find him but Arwen pounced on her before she could go anywhere.

"You cannot! You would break his heart! Elves are also different from people in that way. Unlike you, him or I can die of heartbreak. I have seen it happen before."

Diena was starting to get very annoyed by now. "Well, you are in the same situation as I am. You and Aragorn. How far is that going to go?"

Arwen's expression sobered as it always did when this subject was brought up. "There are things one can do. I am willing to sacrifice my immortality for him, Diena. I am willing to become human for him."

Suddenly, an idea his Diena. "Well, if elves can become human, then can humans bec -" Arwen cut her off.

"'Tis not possible. Humans cannot become elven. I am sorry."

Diena shrugged, not letting Arwen see how disappointed she really was. Pushing aside thoughts of that, she changed the subject.

"Sooo, what are we doing today?"

"Oh! That is what I came here to tell you! Father has agreed to let us go on a hunting trip. It will be fun! Legolas and Estel will come also but Elrohir and Elladan are undecided if they will accompany us."

"Won't that involve shooting? I don't know how to shoot with anything, Arwen!"

Arwen stood and went to the armour. Pulling out a casual dress, she motioned for Diena to put it on.

"We can arrange for you to learn. I'm sure Legolas would be eager to teach you, uh, new things." She grinned mischievously.

Laughing, Diena lightly smacked her friend.

Arwen smiled fondly and spoke, "I am happy to see you enjoying yourself so. When you arrived you were so closed. You are beginning to open up and 'tis a beautiful thing to see. Father wants you to stay. He will most likely ask you himself sometime but I thought I would tell you so you have time for thought if it is needed. I must depart and eat, I hope to see you later."

Of course no thought is needed about whether I want to stay or not! Why would I ever want to leave? I have nothing to go back to and they know it. Diena played with her long brown hair wonderingly. She was so caught up in her thoughts, she didn't hear her door open.

A pair of arms encircled her waist. Even before she turned around, Diena knew it was Legolas.

"Good morning melamin, sleep well?"

"Mmm hmm." She turned around in his arms and looked up into the eyes she had come to trust. Even she had realized how much had changed in one day.

"Thank you for the flower, it is beautiful."

"I tried to find something to match your beauty but it was impossible."

(A/N: Wow, I suck at writing fluff!)

She laughed and leaned into him. He held her protectively and stroked her hair, whispering to her.

A song suddenly ran through Diena's head, one she hadn't heard forever.

Can you hold me and never let go?

When you touch me, it is me that you own!

(A/N: I don't own Vanessa Carlton or her songs!)

Realizing how that fit what she was feeling she smiled. Her security had doubled in less than a day.

"I must get dressed Legolas," Diena said playfully, "Out. I need my privacy!"

His eyes twinkled. Knowing what he was thinking, Diena pushed him gently to the door.

"No, Legolas. You can't watch me change."

Legolas put on an exaggerated sad face. "Yes, melamin, I will go. Has Arwen told you that we are going hunting?" Diena nodded. "Good. I take it you do not know how to shoot though." Diena shook her head. "It is as I thought. I will find you later so I can teach you."

"Okay. I will see you later." She blew him a kiss as he left the room.

Hurriedly, Diena got dressed. She ran out of her room to grab an apple or something before her archery lessons. Walking down the hall, she ran right into Elrond.

Quickly, she bowed her head and curtsied. "Sorry, sir."

"Diena, I do not require you to call me that. Arwen might have told you already, but I want you to stay here. Calling me sir is not necessary."

"Of course I will stay... But what should I call you?" Diena asked.

"You can call me Elrond. Or Adar (Atar, Ada, I don't know!?) if you prefer."

"Adar meaning...?"

"Adar means Father in our language Diena."

"I CAN CALL YOU FATHER?!" Diena almost fell over. This elf dude wants me to call him father!

He laughed and nodded. "Yes, I think if you are going to stay, then Adar would be fine."

She let out a shriek of thankfulness, gave Elrond a huge hug (more like a tackle) and ran off to find Arwen so she could tell her the great news.

Elrond was left there, looking confused at her reaction. She was a most peculiar child. But she is now my child, he reminded himself. He had not expected her to run off screaming and jumping. Smiling and shaking his head slightly, Elrond went off to do whatever he did when he wasn't wandering the halls talking to people.

"Arwen!!! I have the best news!"

"Calm down Diena, what is it?"

"I'm staying and guess what else? Your father... He's my father too!!"

Arwen looked confused. "What do you mean?"

"He told me to call him Adar! That means father!"

"Yes Diena, I know what it means. Wait, this means..." A huge smile broke out on her face.

"WE'RE SISTERS!" They screamed together.

A/N: Yay! A happy chapter to make Diena all happy with her new happy family. And how about that hot Legolas guy, huh? Yummmmmm Orlando Bloom... Yes, so Review, I want to know what you think about it!!!
