draekon: thanks for the heads up. feel free to give input any time.
telboriel: yep he probaly will be on her bad side,but not as much as you might think.
Here's another chapter. I'm sorry that it's a little short. I think that this story will be around for what seems, right now, to be eternity. So you may look forward to many chapters of reading pleasure. I'm also planning on a sequel; so stay tuned.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Haldir's P.O.V.~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
He tossed thes water on her face and wished he hadn't. She ceased to snorse and began thrashing on the bed. Her beautiful face was distorted in an expression of fear and utter terror. Haldir reached out to stop her before she hurt herself, but she pulled away from his touch as if she had been burned. Then Marlaili did something that truly frightened him. her convulsing ceased and her body rose, as if some unseen force had ahold of her throat and jerked her upright. She then began to utter the most unearthly scream Haldir had ever heard. It started off as a distant wail, and grew to such a volume and intensity that his ears ached. Marsaili's eyes opened and she looked around her as if she had no idea where she was. Releif shone on her face and she became silent. She slumped back onto the bed, her body curled into a fetal position.
Haldir was stunned. He wondered how just a little water could cause such an extreeme reaction.He knew there must be a horrible memory behind her behavior. He noticed her trembling and, even though his ears were still ringing, he could hear her soft sobs. Astonished, Haldir dropped the glass on the floor- wich thankfuly did not break- and fell to his knees at her bedside. He was horror stricken that he could have caused her such pain. He felt a part of his heart cry with hers and was deeply sorry for causing her such harm.
Haldir felt a need to comfort Marsaili, so intense, that his heart was pained. He slowly reached a trembling hand out and laid it on her shoulder. Her sobbing stopped and her shaking ceased. He saw her turn to face him and he smiled at the way the water droplets shone in her hair like diamonds. His smile was soon wiped away when he saw her expression. Marsaili was seething with anger.
She turned angry, teary eyes on him. Her face was tense with rage and her mouth had grown pinched, as it was prone to do when she was upset. Her whole demeanor had grown distant and cold. The only words were
" Don't .....ever.... do.... that.....again"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~Marsaili's P.O.V.~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
She was still very shaken by thes sudden assault from her past. She shut her eyes and felt Haldir's hand leave her. If he hadn't been the trigger for releasing the memories that she had spent so many years locking away, she probably would not have reacted so harshly. Marsaili wished she could have relaxed into his touch and tell him everything that had plagued her for years, but that could never happen. She could not let the memories surface agian, or they would destroy her as they nearly had years ago. She could also not open up to someone that she hardly knew. Hopefuly Haldir would not pry, or things could get extreemly difficult; for she knew how stubborn they could both be.
