-Recognize this? -
After dinner, Saira went to Legolas' room. Curfew was in an hour so she still had time. By now she'd told Legolas all about her vision.
"Are you sure you're okay?" Legolas asked. "You look troubled"
"My mind keeps going back to my vision"
"Ease your mind. There is nothing to fear"
"How can you say that? So many things are happening. Ganondorf is gaining power and Voldemort has come back. The only time I feel safe is when you're holding me because I am reminded that there is still good in the world but when you are gone I just, I just"
"Shh" he said wrapping his strong arms around her. "Do not trouble yourself. We will prevail"
"I recognize the faces that the woman changed into but I cant remember from what."
"Can you describe them?"
"Better yet, I can show you" She stepped back. "After all, what good is being a Hylian if I can't show off a little" She envisioned the first appearance and waved her hands in front of herself to become it.
Legolas stared. "I do not recognize this person"
"Try this" Saira shook and turned into the darker woman
"Ah! Now her I do know. The notorious Morgana or Morgan le Fay"
"She turned herself into Morgan le Fay. And how do you know her? I thought it was a legend."
"All legends have a basis in face" Legolas replied. "The stories aren't always accurate but all the people lived. I'm nearly 3,000 so I was alive when it all happened. I had a change to meet Morgan"
"I bet that was interesting." Saira said still in the Morgan look
"Quite, but she died not long after Arthur. What did you say her name was?"
"Ganondorf said her name was Evangeline" Saira shook and went natural
"Evangeline? OI don't know anyone by that name" Legolas said lying down on the couch in his room. Saira paced
"Why do you think she chooses that appearance?" Saira asked
"Why now? Morgan was one of the most powerful witches I'd ever met. Was taught by Merlyn himself. Morgan prided herself on her exceptional abilities to heal and change appearance. She was able to even seduce Arthur that was and help bring down his kingdom. This Evangeline must idolize Morgan" Legolas explained
"Perhaps" Saira sat on the edge of the couch. "I still worry"
He pulled her to him. "There's no need"
Saira smiled weakly as he pulled her into a kiss
"It's amazing how something so simple can chase all my fears away"
"Works like a charm" they continued taking a breath here and there until.
Saira felt someone grab her and pull her away surprising both of them. She turned to look at Dmitri carrying her away.
"What the bloody hell are you doing? Oh, you want back black. Looks good. But seriously what is your malfunction?"
"Thanks Aranel said I should. And its past curfew and you broke your promise."
"Sorry I lost track of time."
Saira mouthed to Legolas saying she'd see him in the morning and winked before Dmitri threw her on her own bed.
"You can go now" she said
"Nope, I'm staying here"
"Dmitri" she said sternly
"No"
"Dmitri"
"No"
"Dmitri"
"Fine"
And he left.
The next day was very quiet. Everyone was savoring their freedom from work. Saira's day, for the most part, was normal. She trained, swam, and then spent time with Legolas in their courtyard.
Liz and Voron went riding all day and Dmitri and Aranel walked around. Most people were shocked to see Dmitri with a normal hair color. Thranduil even commented on it at dinner.
Dinner was boring that night and everyone was happy to leave. Dmitri kept a close eye on Saira but they didn't go to Legolas' room. Instead, Legolas followed Saira to her room, which Dmitri didn't like at all.
Every few minutes he'd show up in the doorway to make sure nothing was happening.
"Only six more days. Must I go back?" Saira asked lying next to him
"If it was up to me, I'd say no but as it's not"
Saira scooted closer and put her hands on his chest
"This is just so perfect" she said. She would always have a lingering guilt but she knew that it would never leave.
The lied there for a minute in silence, then Saira got thirsty and sat up and stretched over Legolas who opened his eyes an smiled.
Saira took a drink and gathered ice in her mouth, without his knowing. She leaned over him and during a kiss pushed the ice into his mouth with her tongue. Just then Dmitri came in for his routine inspection.
"Sairalinde Trinity!!" she jumped off Legolas and sat up "and what are you doing?!" he yelled to Legolas
"I-" the ice impaired his speech. He spit it out into his hand. "I don't think it's any of your concern."
"When I see my best friend bending over a 3,000 year old elf and you spit out ice, it becomes my concern" Dmitri said.
"Must I remind you of some of your antics" Saira interrupted
"I'm sure I don't know what you're talking about"
Saira started naming off girls they knew from Hyrule. "I'm sure Aranel would love to hear about them" she said heading for the door.
"You wouldn't"
Saira just smiled
"I'll just leave you two, but if it goes beyond that-" Dmitri said
"It wont. Liz would stop me and I seriously doubt one of the most renowned elves would try anything" Saira stated
Dmitri left and Saira sat back down with Legolas. She bent over and put her face against the sheet
"I swear, one more interruption" she said
"I've gotten used to it over the years. Its always been like this"
Saira sat up and faced Legolas. "Haven't you heard of door locks?"
Legolas waved his hand and the door shut but he didn't lean in to kiss her yet. He raised his hand and began to count down on his fingers. When he reached one there was a knock on the door.
"Milady? Is everything alright?" Someone said through the door
"I'm here. Alls well" Legolas answered
"Yes, milord" Then the footsteps left.
Finally Legolas leaned in and kissed her. Eventually Saira fell asleep listening to the sound of his heart. Legolas couldn't sleep yet so he watched her. He often did and Saira would sometimes talk in her sleep.
"Hmm, I love you" she said in her sleep. Hearing this, he dozed off.
After dinner, Saira went to Legolas' room. Curfew was in an hour so she still had time. By now she'd told Legolas all about her vision.
