A/N HI here's another chapter for you! I hope you like it.
*Legolas's pov*
I must have falling asleep in that chair because when I woke up Link was saying my name frantically.
"Legolas are you feeling ok?" He asked, his eyes worried.
Smiling I looked up at him. "I'm fine I was just sleeping." When he gave me a confused look I just laughed. "Sorry I mean the way elves sleep! We can walk and talk while we are asleep. Odd isn't it?" He just nodded a sleepy grin on his face. Smiling I walked outside to start with the chores.
As I walked into the stables, I breathed in deeply. The smell of hay and horse hair filled my nose and made the corners of my moth turn up. Taking a shovel and bucket from the storage room, I started mucking out the stalls.
Later while I was up in the loft bailing hay, Link came in. His sharp blue eyes were filled with worry. Without saying a word he climbed up the loft ladder and started helping me bail down the hay. After a few awkward minutes he spoke up.
"Hey Legolas? Can I ask you some questions? They may be kind of personal but I really need to know the answers."
When Link said that, my heart stopped. I had known that someday he'd ask me why I was here, and how early could I leave? He would tell me that he wants me gone. Trying not to jump to conclusions, I looked at him in question. "Of course you can ask me some questions Link." I said, nonchalantly patting the bail of hay next to me.
He walked over slowly and carefully, sat on the poky hay. I could tell he was a little nervous about asking his questions so I gave him an encouraging smile, even though my heart had sunk into my stomach.
He nervously smiled back and continued on. "Ok, well first of all why are you here? I'm not saying I don't like you here because I do. I mean come on you ARE my best friend. I just want to know why." He smiled over at me but looked as though he was about to cry.
Sighing, I felt like crying too. I didn't really want to talk about why I came here because it still confused me. Yet if Link wanted to know then I would have to tell him everything. "Well let's see it probably started back about when I was coming home.
I was walking into my house for the first time in two years. The fellowship of the Ring had finally completed its mission and we had all returned to our homes. My home is the Kingdom of Mirkwood, the largest forest in all of middle Earth. As I walked up the stairs to my room I had a strange feeling of emptiness. As soon as I got upstairs I 'fell asleep.' Anyways I remember my father coming in while I was resting. He woke me up and told me he was getting old and weak. I couldn't understand because elves never grow weak or old, though my father was starting to look it. He then told me that I needed to find someone in Hyrule and then and only then could I become King.
While talking about my dad, my voice had started to crack. I was just now realizing how mush I missed my family and home. "I know it sounds really strange but that is why I'm here." Looking up at Link I noticed how wide his eyes had gotten. He was staring at me his mind engulfed in whatever I was going to say. Shaking my head to clear my mind I laughed. "Any other questions?"
Suddenly his eyes clouded over and a strange sense of awkwardness was filling the room. His eyes met mine and I could see the questions in them, burning like sapphire flames. "Legolas.tell me about your family.especially your father."
At the mention of my father my stomach tightened. I looked at him nervously and cleared my throat. Slowly, I was able to choke out my question. "Why my father?"
Sadly, he looked down. Sighing shakily he mumbled, "Because I only knew what my father looked like and.call me insane but..I think we might be brothers."
Very suddenly my breath was caught up in my throat and I couldn't get any of the questions in my head to register. "Link.what. How?" I couldn't a single question out. Not being able to do this caused me a huge problem.
"See this is why I didn't tell you! I knew you would immediately think that we weren't equal. That's right you think I'm not good enough to be related to you! Well sorry I ever thought it!" With that he jumped down the ladder and walked out angrily.
"Legolas what have you gotten yourself into?"
