I've decided that I'm going to let the reviewers name the child. Yay for you guys. Since I'm not revealing the sex of this child until the time when it is born I'm asking for both male and female names, Please if you could submit what the name means because that would be a big help in describing the child. Sorry I haven't been updating as much. Like I said before I was recently diagnosed with Lupus which can be potentially fatal but luckily that doesn't happen as often as it did and there are new drugs for it so I was kinda feeling sick and such so I didn't have much time to write. I also have writer's block so the chapters don't have much plot. I don't even know how this story is going to turn out but thanks again for all the reviews. I love you all. One more thing. Why is the review counter on the display thing ten reviews behind because when I checked it this morning it said 212 reviews but in my stats it says 222 and it's been doing this for a while. I counted (yes I love reviews that much) and the thingie is 10 behind. Is this happening to everyone?

" Put that down, now." Thranduil ordered as Legolas attempted another bite of his sandwich. "You're making this very difficult for the tailors. They're going to be up half the night making your clothes as it is." Glaring sullenly at the floor Legolas did as he was told. Thranduil seemed to be going through a small pile of various materials, holding up some and making various judgements. Picking up a daintily stitched sample of yellow lace he smiled. " Well this is very-"

" I'm not wearing lace." Legolas said suddenly. "Just because I may appear to be the more effeminate person in the relationship does not mean I will dress in lace for my wedding. I will wear the pale green silk and the deep colored velvet." Thranduil sighed.

" Alright…if that is what you wish." He picked up the chosen materials from the dresser and handed them to one of the tailors. " And what of trim?"

" The silver filigree." Legolas pointed, issuing an impatient sigh from an Elf whom had been in the process of taking his arm measurements.

" Can you please refrain from moving your highness?" She asked holding his arms back out. Legolas nodded and contented himself with staring out of the window and Thranduil went back to discussing the arrangements but the Prince was only half-listening to him.

" Now is there any preference as to what style of clothing you will wear?" Elrond asked studying some of the designs the Elves had come up with over the short time given.

" Something simple." Aragorn answered as a tape measure was wrapped around his chest. Elrond laughed.

" Simple yet elegant my son, you are a King." He smiled. Elladan and Elrohir were perched upon the window seat watching with amusement as Aragorn struggled not to show his distaste at being measured so.

" Be patient." The older twin laughed. " Remember what all this is in preparation for."

" 'Tis a wonderful reason yet I can't help but to be restless at being confined so." Elrond nodded in agreeance with Aragorn.

" Aye but this will only last a few moments and then you will be free to see your beloved…do not be so impatient."

" But I cannot help it!"

When Aragorn returned to Legolas' room the Elf lay asleep on the bed wearing nothing but a thin silk tunic. Aragorn stood for a few moments merely admiring the sight before him. A peaceful expression was settled on the pale features and the Prince's round stomach was accentuated in the moonlight. He was beautiful. A sudden noise caught his attention though and he turned his head in the direction of the spacious bathroom. The door stood slightly ajar but Aragorn could hear a faint rustling noise yet no footsteps. The Ranger turned his entire body slowly and was preparing to investigate when the door opened further and to Aragorn's surprise Glorfindel stepped into view.

" My Liege." Glorfindel said, his voice showing no sign of guilt. He smiled warmly though Aragorn could detect a small tremor in the Elf's eyes. A bottle was clutched in his hand, of what though Aragorn could not tell.

" Lord Glorfindel. What pray tell are you doing in the Prince's chambers?" Aragorn attempted to sound friendly while trying to ignore the nagging suspicion in the back of his mind.

" I apologize if I've startled you." He laughed lightly. " But I injured my arm earlier while riding and since Elrond is so busy with the wedding Legolas told me I could borrow the ointment given to him for his hand, I hope I have not done something wrong…" He smiled once more in Aragorn's direction. " I intended to appear earlier but duty delayed me and when I finally arrived the young Prince was asleep but I have what I was looking for and I will leave you alone. Sorry for any inconvenience I may have created."

" 'Tis no problem mellon nin," Aragorn smiled. " I am merely nervous about tomorrow…forgive me."

" Ah it is no problem, you did nothing that merits an apology. I will see you tomorrow then. Farewell and goodnight." The King offered a wish of the same nature and then Glorfindel left.

Aragorn stood once more alone, indecision clearly written across his face. Finally taking a deep breath he lifted one of the candles that remained illuminated and made his way quietly to the bathroom, not wanting to wake Legolas. Once inside he quickly he lit the other candles and then began to look around. Nothing seemed out of place. After having spent over ten minutes in his search he finally gave in and went back into the bedchamber, setting the candle down in its place of origin. He crawled up onto the bed beside Legolas and lay down. Sleep took him almost immediately.

" Morning." Aragorn heard a voice purr and then the unmistakable feel of lips grazing his neck. He grinned and opened his eyes slowly.

" And good morning to you my prince, how do you feel?" He answered allowing Legolas to kiss his neck once more.

" I feel wonderful…sleepy but wonderful." Was the answer and then Legolas curled up against Aragorn's chest, relishing in the warmth.

" Then all is well." Aragorn laughed and pulled him closer, using one hand to raise the Prince's chin. They shared a long kiss before Legolas pulled away, and swung his legs over the edge of the bed. Aragorn sighed. " Must we rise so early?"

" Indeed we must if you wish to spend some time alone before our fathers separate us and fuss over us and we are handed over to a hundred other inhabitants of Imladris who will choose our clothing and such before being able to see one another once more." Legolas smiled before climbing to his feet and turning to face the bed. " Now, up you go." He reached down and grabbed a hold of Aragorn's hand, tugging the man into a sitting position. " I will go fill our bath, I expect to see you out of bed when I return." Aragorn laughed at the sudden change in Legolas' demeanor and quickly followed the young Elf.

It was a fine morning. Light streamed in through the windows and birds could be heard outside. The buildings were alive with activity and Aragorn smiled. His eyes drifted lazily about the room but something caught his attention and his gaze narrowed on a small object on the counter. " What is the ointment doing there?" He asked going over and picking up the small bottle in his hands.

" It is always there…don't be silly." Legolas answered absently, pouring a sweet smelling concoction into the growing mountain of bubbles.

" Aye but did you not lend it to Lord Glorfindel?"

" I may have, I cannot remember. Yesterday was much more chaotic than usual." Aragorn stared hard at the phial. He knew no one had re-entered the room after Glorfindel's departure save their presence that morning. " Why is it so important to you?"

" It is not, your hand has healed yes?" Legolas nodded to the question, his eyes puzzled.

" What troubles you?"

" Nothing." Aragorn dropped the object into a small container used for trash and smiled. " We need it not anymore, that is all I was thinking. Now what about this bath?"

Ooohhh. Another chapter. Sorry if it's too short but it is longer than some right? I really hope you guys like this one. Well I guess that's it for now, don't forget the names!
