Chapter 4:Uh-Oh! Spaghettios!
"No, Legs! Don't go in there!" Celebdin whispered. Too late. Legolas had somehow gotten his
father's attention.
"OH SHOOT! OH SHOOT! OH SHOOT! AI ELBERETH! WHY DID THIS HAVE TO HAPPEN
TO ME?" those were Celebdin's exact thoughts while he started running in the opposite
direction of Legolas and his father.
"Legolas, what's the matter?" Thranduil asked, crossing the room. He picked up the elfling
and exited the study. When outside, he smelled the child's breath. It smelled like.
"Legolas Greenleaf! You're as plastered as a wall! (A/N: PLEASE don't kill me! I used that for
lack of a better phrase. I know they didn't have plaster then...) Tell me what happened this
instant!"
"(hic) Celeb(hic)din wouldn't (hic) let me (hic) use his bow so (hic) I told him I (hic) saw him
smooching with (hic) Araniel. (Hic) he said I could have some (hic) grape juice then (hic) play
with his bow. After I (hic) drank, he (hic) said I (hic) couldn't. So (hic) I came to (hic) get you.
(hic)"
Legolas had been gifted with the throw up reflex. This simply means his body would react
when he saw something gross. (A/N: he would grow out of this..) He never actually threw
UP...so his father was EXTREMELY surprised when Legolas' breakfast and "grape juice"
suddenly ended up on his tunic.
"Sorry (hic) ada. I feel (hic) sick and (hic) dizzy."
"That's OK, little leaf. Let's get you cleaned up and into bed."
"(hic) Okay. I can walk (hic) myself (hic)."
The little elfling wobbled on his unsteady feet and opened the kitchen door. Thranduil
followed close behind. All of a sudden, Leggo walked right into a stack of dishes! The poor
boy was very frightened and started crying (and hiccupping) at the same time. His father
gently lifted him and carried him to the bedchambers. He pulled a fresh tunic over Legolas'
face, and looked into the puffy red eyes that were slowly drooping with exhaustion. He
couldn't believe Celebdin would do this! Plus he was seeing someone without his father's
knowledge OR permission! Thranduil thought it was time to have a little "chat" with
Celebdin.
*The Next Morning*
Legolas woke to a beautiful day, bird's singing, and a splitting headache. As well, he could
hear someone yelling. It took him a while to realize that that someone was his father and the
victim was.well, that's obvious. Legolas was quite upset when he heard:
"HOW COULD YOU GET YOUR LITTLE BROTHER DRUNK?! HAVEN'T I BROUGHT YOU
UP WRITE?? DON'T YOU KNOW THAT ELFLINGS DON'T HAVE AS MUCH
TOLERENCE?"
Just then, Elena walked in with some milk and Lembas (A/N: are there ANY other elvish
foods that Tolkien mentions?!)
"How are you feeling, dear?" Elena inquired as she pressed her cool hand to his forehead.
Since her mother passed away, she had acted as somewhat of a parental figure towards her
younger brother.
"I'm fine Elena!" Legolas said as he pushed his sister's hand away. He still felt crummy, but
he didn't want his sister to think he was some kind of big baby!
Just then, Celebdin walked into the room closely followed by Thranduil. He seemed to be
quite shell shocked and sat down at the end of the bed.
"Ahem. Legolas, I'm uh, SORRY that I accidentally got you drunk cause I was um...MAD,
er, can you forgive me?" Thranduil looked quite miffed, but still did not say anything
"Welll." Legolas paused. Everybody was waiting to see what the "verdict" would be, "OK. I
forgive you um muindor." Thranduil nearly laughed out loud at this, but he saved himself. His
sons were quite the pair. Legolas reached forward to give his brother a handshake, but
collapsed. He still had a hangover, and boy was he feeling sick! This made Celebdin nearly
cry out in shock and amusement. But there was no time for amusement. Not when his father
was this mad.
The next day, Thranduil called Legolas into his office.
"Legolas?"
"Yes Ada?"
"I would like to discuss something with you."
What?"
"School."
