Arwen's House 1

Even before I can knock, Arwen swings the door open. "Hey!" she exclaims. I walk in and right then I see Legolas. Single Legolas.

"Hey, Legolas," I say quietly.

"Don't just 'hey Legolas' me! I want a hug from my old friend!" he says and holds his arms open for me. I smile and practically leap into his arms. He hugs me long and tight. I've missed him so much. When he came with Talim, it didn't feel like it was the Legolas I knew for some reason.

"I've missed you," he says.

"I've missed you too," I say as we pull away.

Arwen looks on, trying to look like all of this isn't getting boring, but I can tell she wants to be like "Enough of this! Let's do something!"

"So, why don't we watch a movie?" she asks. I knew she was going to say that. So we walk down the hall into Arwen's theater. Yea, her family has a theater. Her dad has been gradually letting her and her brothers get more electronic things and the three wanted a theater for Christmas two years back.

"Tomorrow and Paper Heart are the only in theater movies I have right now," Arwen frowns. "I've seen both of them and they're both worth watching a second time.

"Tomorrow," Legolas says. "The commercial is so sweeeeet."

"Yea, I want to watch that too," I say.



I look over at Arwen when we're about halfway through the movie and she's ASLEEP!! What's up with that? The movie has excitement every five seconds!

Legolas turns to me. "Wanna talk and just pause the movie for awhile?"

"Yea, sure," I say. We both walk up to this room with windows where you can pause the video. We paused it and just sat down on a couch in the room.

"I feel like we both made a bad decision this summer...breaking up," Legolas says and then doesn't say anything for a minute. I really don't know WHAT to say because I'm not sure I agree.

"I don't know if you remember, but I remember when we Aragorn and Talim went off to study a book report and we were all alone at the lunch tables. You were so cute and shy. I had started liking you so much so fast, because really, there's nothing to hate," he says slowly. "And I said, 'You're beautiful, Emthiel. If I were in Aragorn's place, your name would always be on my tongue...'"

I smile remembering that. Legolas had always been really sweet and I'd never gone out with anyone as long as I had gone out with him. "Yea, and I remember when you took me out to this fancy restaurant and you gave me Cashdoggie. I was so happy. That was the best weekend ever."

"And when everyone was making fun of me for being 'gay' and all that crap and you didn't hang any less around me, even if you were made fun of too for being with me."

"And when I got kidnapped and you saved me. You were they every moment when I needed you," I say and smile. Wow, I really did miss Legolas being with me. Darien was great and all. I loved him to death, but Legolas was different. I was still in love with Legolas, I think! That was, I loved the old Legolas and was this Legolas still the same?

He still seemed to care like he did whenever I needed him and those icy white blue eyes were also warm towards me.

"I've never loved anyone like I love you, Emma. You know I'm not lying. You and me are too close to lie to each other."

"I know you wouldn't lie to me Legolas," I say. "I love you too. I think we're perfect for each other."

We shyly smile and look away, then face each other again, grinning like lovesick idiots. Why did we break up in the first place? I couldn't remember when I looked straight at him. How could someone like me ever want to smash a relationship with Legolas? A girl would be crazy to do something like that...

"So, does this mean..." he stops, assuming I know what he means, and I do.

"Yea," I say. We both lean into each other and kiss. His lips were so different from Darien's or Aragorn's. So much more silkier and he was a much better kisser. Not only that, but the boy I was kissing was better for me then any of the guys I'd met. I knew it, just by that feeling in my stomach.

"Hiya bitches!" Arwen bursts in and Legolas and me tear quickly apart before Arwen sees. "Why'd you guys pause the movie?"

"We didn't want to watch it without you," Legolas says.

"Well, let's finish it!" Arwen exclaims. I get up to follow Arwen and Legolas follows. That's when I feel his hand sneak up around mine. I glance up into his clear crystal eyes and he smiles at me. Why was I such a dork with boys sometimes? How did I not see that Legolas and I were perfect?
