Heeello, sorry sorry sorry!! I'm so sorry I didn't wrote any chapters, but my computer is REALLY messed up. -.-' So, well I'm trying to get this chapter done as soon as possible! =D I couldn't do it yesterday because I was with a friend the whole day. Went to Pirates of the Caribbean again! =P I like that movie. Well anyway I think I'll start writing now =P

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Pippin, Merry or anything else Tolkien related, I only own the story *sigh*

"Awake at last."

Frodo sighed and putted his book down. It was evening and Merry was still sleeping, so was Pippin. He rubbed his eyes, he had been reading for a long time. He was feeling a bit hungry, so he decided to eat something. He got up and walked to the kitchen when suddenly he heard something. He stopped and listened...

There it was again!.. It sounded like somebody sobbing....

'Pippin!!' Frodo thought and without waiting any longer he ran to Pippin's room. He found the Hobbit sitting on his bed, his shoulders shocked and he let out little sobs.

"It's okay Pippin, It's all right!" Frodo said and he walked to the bed. The little Hobbit looked up.

"F..Frodo?.." Pippin said.

"What's wrong?" Frodo asked and Pippin tried to wipe away his tears

"I..I thought..y..you...were..gone. And a..all the other H..Hobbits too." Pippin said, and then started to sob again.

"There, there Pip. It was just a bad dream..sshh.." Frodo hugged his younger cousin and slowly rocked up and down. Suddenly Pippin stopped crying and looked up again.

"W..where's Merry?" He asked with a little voice. "W..What happened?"

"Don't worry, Merry is fine. We were more worried about you! He's sleeping now." Frodo replied. Pippin looked at Frodo with his famous 'I don't understand' face. Frodo couldn't help it and snickered.

"Well, what do you remember?" Frodo asked.

"I remember....We were swimming..Merry and I, and.....We wanted to go home...ehm..I didn't want to walk all the way to the bridge and I jumped from stone to stone over the water....and...well...that's it.." Pippin replied.

"You fell into the water..But I think Merry could probably tell you the whole story. I'll wake him."

Pippin nodded and Frodo stood up and walked to Merry's room. Just as he had expected he didn't have to say it twice that Pippin was awake. Merry got up immediately.

"Pip!! You are awake!" Merry said while he walked to his younger cousin. Before Pippin could say anything Merry hugged him tightly.

"..M..erry....I ...can't...breath.." Pippin finally managed to say. Merry stopped and looked at his cousin.

"Sorry Pip, didn't mean to." Merry replied and smiled.

"How are you feeling?"

"I'm....hungry"

Frodo laughed. "Well we can do something about that!" He said. "I'll make you dinner."

"Dinner?" Pippin said and looked up.

"I think you should tell him everything Merry." Frodo said and he walked into the kitchen. And so he did, while Frodo was making dinner. Finally (For pippin it had felt like ages) dinner was ready and because Merry and Frodo didn't want Pippin to come out of his bed just yet, they all ate in Pippin's room.

'Well you didn't lose your appetite after your little adventure." Frodo snickered while he was looking at Pippin who was trying to get as much food in his mouth at possible.

"Lose his appetite?" Merry asked. "That is never going to happen" And he laughed.

After half an hour dinner was save in their stomachs and Frodo insisted that Pippin went to sleep again. Merry knew arguing with Frodo was pointless, but the same counted for Pippin. He was amused to see the two arguing, but finally he agreed with Frodo and Pippin went to sleep again. They left the room and went back to the kitchen where they sat down next to the table.

"I seems he's on the better hand, I'm glad he isn't sick." Merry said.

"Me too, but still I don't want to have him running around just yet. I think it's better if he stays in bed for a while." Frodo replied

"I agree, but I don't think we can keep him in bed. Remember, It's Pippin we are talking about." Merry said and sighed.

"I know..That is going to be a little problem, Maybe we can let him out of bed on one purpose. That he doesn't do anything...wild." Frodo replied and putted his hands behind his head, Merry laughed.

"But that is the only reason he wants to get out of bed, Frodo! I myself have been forced to go to bed, and I want to let out my energy now" He said and snickered when he saw Frodo's face.

"Don't worry, cousin. I won't climb trees or run around like a chicken without head. I think I'm just going to have a little walk."

"Okay..fine.." Frodo replied and sighed.

"I won't be gone for long!" Merry said and not much later he left the little hobbithole. Frodo got up and walked back where he left his book and started to read again but couldn't focus on the story. An hour later the door opened again and Merry walked back in. He closed the door behind him and sat down next to Frodo.

"Did you enjoyed your little walk?" Frodo asked and Merry smiled.

"That was just what I needed! A little fresh air! But it is getting dark. I think I'll go to bed soon." Merry replied.

"I think I'll go to bed too." Frodo said. "It's better if I sleep here though, I don't think Sam would mind."

Merry nodded. "Goodnight then, cousin!" And he got up.

He walked to Pippin's room and found the little Hobbit fast asleep. Merry smiled and went to his own room for the night. Frodo's book was to uninteresting and he felt tired, so not much later he also went to bed.
