"Come in!" Galadriel said, when she heard a soft knock on her door.
Celeborn came in. She smiled.
"Celeborn. Have you heard something from Thingol yet?"
He shook his head. "I am sorry, my love. But I have had a talk with Melian."
Galadriel sighed. "And?"
"I only tell you if you come with me to the garden. You haven't been outside since two days ago!"
She smiled. "Okay." and took his arm.
Outside, they sat down on the grass, leaning against a tree.
"Well, what did Melian say?" Galadriel pressed the point.
Celeborn smiled and laid his arm around her waist. "She isn't angry with you. She knows that you aren't a kinslayer."
Galadriel smiled. "That's great! Really! I think she has a big influence on Thingol, don't you think so?"
"Yes, she indeed has… But, I don't want to give you false hope… The king has locked himself up… He doesn't want to listen to someone, even to his wife. But, Galadriel, we'll be alright, I am sure we'll be alright…" He pulled her closer.
She smiled and kissed him. Love was shining from her eyes.
"We'll be alright." she repeated, and kissed him again.
Later, they lay on the grass in each other's arms. Celeborn was the first one to speak again.
"Don't you think we should have waited- until our marriage?"
Galadriel laughed. "No, I don't think so. I always get what I want, my love, and I wanted you."
He smiled. "Well, if you have no regrets, than I don't regret it either. After all, I know it is you, for the rest of my life."
"And because we are immortal, that's a very long time!" she smiled
"But I will never get tired of you…" he assured, as he kissed her.
