Author's Note :: Shameless fluff. I don't own Boromir or anything. (though, I wish I did _). Uh. The elf mentioned in here is mine. No. Not Aragorn or Arwen or Legolas OR Elrond. Just a random chick elf. This is pretty much Boromir and his last night in Rivendell before they head out to destroy the ring...you dig?

You came to me in my hour of need. You sat beside me, stroking my cheek as I tried to rest. I couldn't help but smile at you as you crawled up next to me, pulling the covers up and over yourself, then lowering them enough so only your eyes showed. You smiled at me, placing your hand back upon my cheek, lightly stroking it.
Was it all a dream?
You leaned in, brushing your soft lips against my cheek. I rolled over onto my side, my arm falling onto your side softly. You nuzzled my cheek, bringing both your hands to my face, cupping it as you kissed my lips softly and lovingly. I couldn't understand why you're here, though. Did you sense my troubles? Did you hear my constant tossing, turning, thrashing in the bed from the room beside yours? Are you here just to silence me so you can get sleep?
Was it all a lie?
When I awaken, will you be here by my side, clinging to my arm, as though protecting me? You pulled yourself on top of me, pressing your body against mine. You whispered softly, "Do not fear me" just before you kissed me softly. I closed my eyes, returning the kiss to you as thoughts about tomorrow swam through my mind. Will you be here, on top of me, kissing me as I wake up? Or will you be gone when the sun rises, leaving me to question your existance...
Was it all real?
I still question you. Your existance; whether you're real or not, I'll question it. I can already see that when I awaken, you'll be gone. But even as I begin my journey from this place, I'll always remember you. Your face, your skin, your eyes, your everything. All of it will stay with me till I pass into the other world. Though I never learned your name, I'll always remember you.
