Chapter 21
He might as well give her his hole name, royalty did hold some sway. It would make her more likely to believe him as well. ~Legolas Gr-~
~Legolas is enough for now.~ She interrupted. ~Now Legolas what do you want from Lilluil?~
Her love. ~She's my lady.~
~That's funny I'm her roommate and I don't recall her saying anything on the subject.~
His mouth was devoid of an answer to that question so he remained silent. She hadn't told anyone? Then why? Why had she returned to the North instead of running for the South when she had the chance?
~I..I wanted to see for myself.~
His gaze alit on her in seconds transferring almost instantaneously to the small wrap of bandages he could see just under the collar of her nightgown. She was injured! The urge to shoot more orcs arose and died just as quickly. He started to stand and then stopped and sank again at a look from Tanielle.
~See what?~ Tanielle asked confusedly.
~If true love was real.~ He whispered in understanding. Her eyes flickered to his briefly.
~What would ever give you reason to doubt it?~
~She's from the south.~ Tanielle's eyebrows quirked up, and she turned to the prone elven maiden for confirmation.
The carrier of his heart closed her eyes and rolled so she was facing the trea, sighing. ~Yes, yes I am. I. wanted to see if all that northie junk, no offense intended, was real or not. And if I would miss anything when and if I ever returned home. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing the wrong thing, which I couldn't find out if you treated me like a southerner. I'm Sorry.~
Tanielle blinked. ~You're from the south?~
They could only see the back of her head, but the deep brown hair shook violently as Lilluil nodded. A deep sadness seeped into his mind as his enhanced hearing picked up a faint sound she's crying he crossed to the small cot regardless of whether the other elf approved or not, she didn't. He grasped her shoulder and worked an arm under her so he wouldn't hurt her damaged one and slowly pulled her into his lap. After a thoughtful moment, pulling up the blanket as well when he saw she was wearing only a thin night shirt. She hid her face in his tunic, shaking silently.
Tanielle chewed on her lip a moment before leaving silently. After a while Seluils returned with bucket to quietly clean up the mess and after shooting an apologetic glance left just as quietly.
