Chapter seven:
I looked over to find Elladan standing there.
"What do you want?" I asked.
"Now Evelyn, that's a bit harsh, don't you think?" said Elladan smiling.
"Tell me what you want or I'll scream and have the whole palace here in seconds." I said.
"We need to talk." He said closing the door.
"Elladan, I thought you already spoke your mind on this subject." I said.
"Yes, and I was wrong to yell at you like that. I'm sorry I let my temper get the better of me, please come back to Rivendell with me. We can raise our child together." He said.
"So you finally chose to acknowledge the fact that the child I'm carrying is yours?" I said.
"After a long lecture from Galadriel and my father." He said moving closer.
"Elladan, I'm sorry I didn't tell you the truth. I was going to when I came back from my walk with Galadriel, but you and Legolas were already arguing." I said starting to cry.
"Come here." He said holding his arms out.
Elladan held me tight.
"I'm so sorry Elladan." I said.
"Sssshhhh, don't cry. We'll make things right between us to bring this baby into the world." Said Elladan.
I stopped crying long enough to look into his eyes to see that he was telling the truth.
"You must be exhausted from riding all the way here without stopping." Said Elladan.
"I was getting ready for bed when you showed up." I said.
"I know I also heard your wish on the stars." Said Elladan ushering me to the bed.
"Remember, you resting for two." Said Elladan after a long silence.
"Will you stay with me?" I asked.
"Of course, my love." Said Elladan.
"Evelyn, what's all that noise about?"
"It's nothing Grandfather, go back to bed."
"Evelyn, open this door." Said an unexpected voice.
"No, I will not open that door."
"Young lady, may I remind you that you are still under my care. You will open this door or leave. The choice is yours." Said Legolas.
I opened the door and said, "Well, Father, why do you have to come and wake me up in the middle of the night?"
"Do not take that tone with me."
"I will peak to you as you are speaking to me. Do not forget one of your crucial lessons to me 'never let anyone raise their voice to you without raising your voice back' or did you already forget, Father."
Thranduil let us to argue amongst ourselves when I opened the door.
"Young lady, may I remind you that I am still your guardian and you will do as I say." Said Legolas.
"Oh really?" I said.
"Yes, and I suggest that you get Elladan out of y our room and do it now."
"Why are you acting like this, I'm eighteen years old, technically I'm not in your care any more."
"If he isn't out of your room within the next five minutes, you will be grounded. Indefinitely." He said storming off.
I looked over to find Elladan standing there.
