New Couples: Glorfindel/Melpomaen (Figwit) and Glorfindel/Erestor (Eventually)
There was a knock on Elrohir's door at dawn. "Wake up Master Sluggard. You don't want to miss breakfast, do you?" Came a call from the corridor.
Elrohir groaned. "Ugh.go away!" He buried his head underneath his pillow. The knocking persisted, and he ignored it. Suddenly, there came an angry shriek.
"ELROHIR PEREDHIL!!!!!!!! You get your lazy bum out of bed this instant or Elbereth help you I swear that I'll." Legolas was cut off by an instant "I'm up! I'm up! Seesh."
Elrohir opened his door to see a brightly smiling Legolas. "Off to breakfast, then?" Elrohir rolled his eyes. "Mood swings. Acting like a human woman." He muttered. "What. Was. That?" Legolas hissed. "Nothing, Legolas, Nothing." He said quickly. "Good."
Elrohir couldn't help but feel happy. Everything was going right, for once. When they arrived at the Dinning Hall, they noticed something that stood out immediately. Glorfindel and Erestor were missing. Legolas looked at Elrohir with a big grin. Elrohir shook his head. It couldn't be, could it?
Erestor arrived in the Hall, fallowed shortly by Glorfindel. They both looked thoroughly un-happy, and as if though they had headaches.
"To much Wine does strange things to your minds, remember that." Erestor mumbled. Haldir blinked innocently. "What are you talking about? What happened, Counselor Erestor?" He asked.
"Nothing. Nothing at all." Glorfindel snapped. Elladan raised an eyebrow. Elrohir nudged Legolas, who looked like he was about to laugh. Suddenly, A dark haired elf that worked in Elrond's library rushed in. "Melpomaen?" Elrond asked. Melpomaen looked down at the floor.
"A message came from Mirkwood, sir. King Thranduil." He said as he looked up. "It's for you."
Thranduil nodded and took the letter. He paled as he read it. Suddenly he threw the letter down to the table. "Legolas, Melefina, go pack your things. We must leave immediately." He said.
"But, Father I." Legolas protested. "No 'But's Legolas! We are leaving now." He said calmly, giving Legolas the 'Thranduil Look.' Everyone shuddered. "Yes, Father." He muttered as he stood to leave.
Thranduil looked at Elrond. "We need to talk. Gather your counselors or whoever and meet me in your library." Elrond nodded, wondering what could have happened.
The meeting began 10 minutes later. "What's going on, Thranduil?" Elrond asked. Thranduil sighed. "There's.been an attack. Orcs invaded And.Hiternel, my oldest, received a..Poisoned wound. We must leave immediately "
"Orcs attacked?" Glorfindel asked. "Yes." Thranduil said. Erestor sighed. "This does not bode well with me" He said. "What about Legolas and Elrohir? They're getting along so well." Lindir said.
"Legolas must come with me." Thranduil said. A crash was heard. "Who's there?!" Elrond barked. "It's just me, My Lord." Melpomaen said as he appeared from behind a bookshelf.
"Well, what have you heard?" "Everything." The Librarian said. "Well, what do you think?" Glorfindel asked with a fond smile at Melpomaen. He smiled back. "I don't think you should take Legolas, King, but.. It, in the end, is your choice, though it should be Legolas'."
Thranduil sighed. "I know, but he needs to come with me. We leave tomorrow." Thranduil said. Glorfindel put his hand over the grief stricken Melpomaen's. "They will survive, their love is strong." He whispered into Melpomaen's ear.
Melpomaen sighed and looked into Glorfindel's eyes. "I hope so, Glor, I hope so."
Erestor was watching the interaction and he forced himself not to glare at Melpomaen. Everyone knew they were together, but.Erestor couldn't help but feel Jealous.
