procrastinated A LOT! well, here's the next chapter. Sorry it doesn't do
much to ease the suspense or whatever.

All five children stared at their grandmother with their mouths hanging slightly open. Talitha smiled at them, remembering the first time she'd heard the story. The two boys were the first to recover from their initial shock.
"Woah," Braidy said, "so if Flavia would've gone, Frodo would've died?"
"Well Braidy, we don't know for sure, it was just a dream she'd had. But, Farmer Maggot was one of those smart hobbits. Do you remember the part of Frodo's story where he met Tom Bombadil?" All the little hobbits nodded their heads. "Well, fold used to say that the old farmer knew Tom; and Tom reckoned him as wise."
The twins both grinned at each other and uttered a quiet, "Woah."
Talitha smiled to herself. She was very pleased that even though her grandchildren were so young, they were comprehending the story. She realized that they would probably appreciate it more if they were older, but she figured that they would want to hear it over and over again for years to come.
"Gramma, please continue," Violet implored. But before she could do so, Poppie piped up.
"Gwamma, I'm hungwy. Can we have another cookie?"
"Alright dear, I didn't realize it was already time for second breakfast." She got up, went to the kitchen, and returned with a cookie and a glass of milk for each of the little hobbit children.
After they'd all eaten, and she'd gotten some for herself as well, she took the cups back to the kitchen. After the delay, she was finally ready to continue the story. Her grandchildren's eyes all stared up at her, hanging on her every word.

Again, I'm SO sorry for not updating as often as I should. I'll really try to update faster this time. Okay, my ONE review. Of course........ that's probably what I get for not updating very often.
The Loozer: Thanks so much for reviewing. I'm sorry for leaving you hanging for so long. I'll really try to update as fast as I can. Oh, and I'm really glad you like it.
