Fools Thoughts
Disclaimer: If I owned the lot I would have had Merry and Pippin make out
already, as I would with Frodo and Sam, alas I don't so you folks don't get
to see the hobbits get on with it.
Note: okay big spoilers for ROTK, actually that scene after the plantir
kinda produced this plot bunnie so if you've never seen ROTK do
so...actually you should see the movie anyway, it kicked butt (trying to
keep a low rating). So I'm hoping for this to be a big tear jerker, so
REVIEW GOSH DARN IT!!!!
Why do I always have to look? That question rang through my head over and over. Why *did* I have to always look, why did I look into the plantir? I knew it was a bad idea but I had to look into it anyways. Now look at this big mess I've gotten myself into. Everyone thinks I'm a fool, Gandalf's mad at me and worst of all Merry is so disappointed in me. Now because stupid Sauron thinks I have the bloody ring I've got to go to Gondor, the one place I'm trying to avoid. Just thinking about Gondor makes me thing of Boromir and because of my inability to protect myself and Merry, he died! But I'd rather go through that thousand times with Merry by my side then this one time without my beloved Cousin. Oh god the look of sheer disappointment on his face cuts right through me and I never had the chance to sit down and explain my reasons to him. Although I really don't even understand my reasoning, but that shouldn't matter! Merry should understand and always be with me, but it is my fault that he's not here with me. I mean *I* *was* the idiot who looked into the foolish thing. And because of me Merry cried! That was the first time I ever saw Merry going to cry from fear *because* of me. And I'm not there to comfort him, what kind of worthless hobbit am I? Because of my foolish actions I may never see my cousin again.
"Don't worry, young Perigrin Took. You shall see Merry again." Gandalf's voice broke me out of my incredibly depressing thoughts.
I was surprised; out of all the people in the world Gandalf would be the last one to comfort me. "How can you be so sure? What if one of us dies in battle?" The very thought sent chills through my spine. Had I not been on a horse running very fast I would normally find nice spot to sit and cry.
"Listen to your heart, it will tell you that you will see your cousin again, alive." I looked up in surprise to see Gandalf smiling at me, something I've never seen directed at me. The only person I've seen him truly smile at was Frodo. "Rest now, we've got a long way to go." I nodded and turned around and closed my eyes falling asleep with the sound of Shadowfax running in the background.
