Chapter 3
'Should I be doing this? My brothers will certainly hit the roof if they find out,' Legolas thought to himself as he prepare to go to the friendly match that he promised Elladan.
He knew his brothers were only worried about him, as he was the youngest in their family.
'But Elladan is only interested to be my friend. Nothing more to that,' he argued with himself.
Even though he was a prince, he has only a limited number of trusted friends, too few to his liking and none of them were of his own age. It was not in his nature, or his brothers, to easily befriend anyone. He knew the reason to that. And for that reason, he and his family must suffer. But he had longed for a friend here.
'Enough of this. Tis only a match. He might not even want to be your friend after the match,' thought Legolas.
Quickly, Legolas got dressed and with his bow and arrow, he heads out to the archery field.
The three older elves were already there, talking and laughing with each other.
'Dear Valar, do I really want to go through with this? Not too late to turn back now,' Legolas thought nervously as he walk nearer to the field.
He stopped as if he wanted to turn around and run back to his quaters but Elladan had already waved and called out to him to join them.
'This is it. I gave him my word to be here and I shall not turn back on it now,' thought Legolas as he made up his mind. So, Legolas walked towards the three.
"Hello there, my prince. And how do you fare this morning?" Elladan asked as Legolas walked into his hearing range. Legolas blushed when Elladan called him his prince.
"I'm fine thank you. And you, my Lord?" Legolas replied Elladan's greetings.
"Fine, fine. Here let me introduce you to my brother, Elrohir and our friend, Haldir," Elladan introduced them.
"Nice to meet you." "Hey there." They exchanged greetings.
"My brother here mentioned that you are extremely good with the bow," Elrohir said to Legolas.
Legolas shook his head and replied, "I am sure Lord Elladan exaggerate his comment, Lord Elrohir. I am only a mere novice archer."
"Elladasn speaks the truth then. You are very modest, Legolas," Haldir commented.
Legolas blushed at the comment but said nothing else.
"Shall we start then, gentlemen?" Elladan inquired, knowing Legolas must be uneasy with all these attention. Without knowing why, he felt an urge to protect Legolas, even if it's from these two meddlesome elves.
"Okay. I'll partner with Haldir, and you dear brother, shall be with Legolas," Elrohir said. Legolas only nodded at the arrangement.
"Let's start then," Haldir said.
An hour or two later...
"Now you know I didn't exagerrate when I say he's damn good with his bow now, did I?" Elladan asked with a smirk on his face. He felt proud of Legolas. He could beat all three of them in an archery game, if the chance arises.
So there was no question which team emerged the winner that afternoon.
Legolas again blushed at the comment. After spending an afternoon wtih these three, he began to feel more at ease with them.
'They must really be willing to be my friend,' he had thought.
"Legolas, you shouldn't really be with the novice team, you know," Haldir said, haven't been really recovered from the shock that he lost to a novice.
Legolas smiled and said," You let me win." He knew that was not the truth. He knew he had done well in the match, but he had been taught to be modest about his achievement and also of politeness.
"Of course not. It is in the spirit of sports that we must compete fair and square. No, you were good," Elrohir corrected him.
All four of them sat on the grass, still feeling tired from the match and enjoying each other's company. The three of the older elves has begun to enjoy Legolas's company and had decide that he was not that bad, after all.
"Legolas, would you like to go to a feast with me tonight?" Elladan asked, breaking the silence.
Legolas looked at him, puzzled. Then he asked,"What feast?"
"The Lord and Lady of Lorien is having a feast tonight to welcome my father, Lord Elrond. He arrived this morning," Elrohir answered for his brother.
Legolas nodded understandingly but he had to reject their offer," I'm really sorry but I can't accept your offer. I have to clean the dining hall in the evening."
"Well, come after you've clean it then," Haldir offered.
"I don't think I can. It's a rather big dining hall, if you've forgotten. And I alone had to clean it," Legolas replied sheepishly.
"Alone? THE dining hall? Whatever did you do to piss off the wardens?" Elladan exclaimed with eyes wide open.
"I, um..., got into a fight," Leoglas said slowly.
Seeing that Legolas wished not to elaborate, they let it drop.
"Come on Legolas. Please come," Elladan pleaded with his best puppy eyes.
Legolas laughed at the antic and said,"Fine, I'll be there if I finished early."
"Promise?" Elladan held out his pinky.
Legolas laughed again but he to held out his pinky to Elladan's.
"Promise."
The other two only laughed.
'But I won't make it coz I won't be able to finish it in time,' Legolas thought as he didn't want to go anyway. But he won't be breaking a promise because he is sure that he won't be able to finish it in time.
After a few more moments of resting, Legolas parted with them to go start on cleaning the dining hall.
At the dining room...
'I hate this. What did I do to deserve this?' Legolas thought to himself as he scrub the floor.
He had got into a fight with another elf that had insulted his family. Apparently his brothers had managed to earn the brothers a nickname, The Mirkwood Ice Princes.
What angered him was the warden seemed to think that he was the only one at fault here. The other elf didn't even get a slight punishment. But he did ended up in the healing house. Legolas smiled to himself.
Sure, the Mirkwood brothers were not very friendly with the other elves, but they had their reasons. The same reason he had isolated himself from other elves. The same reason he had been shunned by others. The same reason he cannot attend the feast tonight.
'Who are they to judge us?' he thought angrily as he continue to scrub the floor.
He sighed inwardly. Part of him really wanted to attend the feast tonight. But he knew he can't. He knew, his affection towards Elladan had increased significantly and he can't allow that to continue.
'Just have to concentrate on scrubbing then,' he sighed again.
As he was scrubbing and rubbing the dirty floor, he heard the door creaked open. He looked up and to his surprise he saw Elladan standing at the doorway, grinning.
"Hello, Legolas. Have you finish then?" Elladan asked.
Legolas thanked the Valar he had promised to go only if he had finish the chore. And he had not.
"No, Elladan. I don't think I can make it tonight. Thanks for the offer anyway," Legolas replied.
"But I say you're finish with this," Elladan said with a twinkle in his eyes. He clapped his hands twice and a group of elves rushed in from the door with Elrohir and Haldir in tow.
Legolas stared at the scene dumbfoundedly.
When he managed to find his voice, he said,"What is going on, Elladan? Who are these elves and what are they doing here?"
"Why, they are our Rivendell's best archery team. The whole team is going to help you clean the hall. Courtesy of me, of course," Elladan answered proudly.
"What?! Why?" Legolas asked again. He can't think of a reason for Elladan to do this.
"You promised to go to the feast with me if you finish this chore of yours. And I know you'll never make it on your own. So I brought reinforcement," Elladan said, grinning from ear to ear.
"But..but..I..You.." Leoglas stuttered as he cannot imagine Elladan would do something like this.
"Come now, we need to get you ready," Elrohir said, "Arwen!"
An elf-maiden walked into the dining hall. Legolas had not found his voice so he just stood there, watching helplessly as they discussed their next move.
"This is my sister, Arwen," Elladan introduced the elf-maiden to Legolas.
"Hello there, Prince Legolas," Arwen greeted him, smiling sweetly.
"Umm..hi..." Legolas stuttered still.
"Come now, my brother says you need to get ready for the feast. Follow me," Arwen says as she lead Legolas out of the dining hall followed by the three elves behind them.
"We'll come back later to see the progress of the cleaning after you've gotten ready," Haldir said.
Legolas could do nothing but to comply. Never in his mind had he expected this.
All of them walked to the palace. Arwen led Legolas to a private room upstairs while the others waited at the living hall for Arwen to work her charms on the prince.
A moment later...
"What could possibly be taking this long?" Elladan asked, frustrated.
They had been waiting for quite some time now, and the elder twin is getting restless by the minute.
"Relax, El. You know your sister. She's just making sure everything's perfect, you know," Haldir offered to calm his friend.
"Haldir's right. Just give them a moment," elrohir added.
"A moment? They been up there..." Elladan snapped but he was interrupted by a cough from up the stairs.
All three of them rushed to the stairs and they saw Arwen looking down at them.
"Well? Where is he?" A very impatient Elladan asked.
Arwen rolled her eyes at him but she announced,"Gentlemen, I present to you, Prince Legolas of Mirkwood."
Then from behind Arwen, Legolas slowly emerged.
All three elves gasped at the sight in front of them. All three watched Legolas with their mouth open as the figure in front of them slowly descend the stairs, with Arwen behind him.
****You can now hear 'Kiss Me' playing at the back of your head****
No earthy creature could look as beautiful as that because like an angel, Legolas slowly walked down the stairs.
His golden blode hair, tied up loosely in half with a silver ribbon that is as long as his hair. The effect is added with the silver circlet that he wore on his head. The combination of glow shines almost unnaturally bright. His porcelain skin glowed like the moonlight. His soft red lips drew a small innocent and shy smile.
Arwen had dressed him very nicely. He wore a silver tunic, a white shirt and a dark leggings. In overall, Legolas looked more like an angel than an elf.
Kiss Me still playing
As Legolas neared the end of the stairs, Arwen suddenly put her foot in front of Legolas to trip him.
Surpirised, Legolas lost his footing and fall down the stairs. ****Kiss Me stopped... hehehe****
But he had not fall down completely when he felt a pair of strong arms caught him.
He had fallen into no other's strong arms than Elladan's.
"Are you okay, my prince?" Elldan whispered.
Legolas is blushing now, embarassed at the situation. He quickly nodded and attempted to stand up while being supported by Elladan.
Unknown to them, Elrohir winked at his sister and Arwen smiled. All three smiled knowingly.
"Let's go check the dining hall then before we go to the feast," Haldir suggested.
"Let's go," Legols replied quickly as he struggled out of Elladan's arms.
All five of them walked towards the dining hall. The elves were getting ready to leave.
"Finish cleaning I supposed?" Elladan asked on of the elf.
"Yup, just finished," he answered.
"Thanks guys. I owe you one," Elladan embraced the elf in a warrior gesture, hands on shoulder.
"No problems. We'd better get going then," the elf replied.
"Okay, thanks again," Elladan said.
The elves all took a second look at Legolas, a beautiful creature to behold. Legolas felt uneasy of the attention.
"Well then Legolas. I guess you can make it to the feast after all," Elrohir said, grinning from ear to ear.
"I guess," Legolas replied slowly, not knowing what to do. He had made a promise and he had to keep it.
"Let's go then," Arwen chirpped happily.
So the five of them make their way to the feast at the grand hall of Lorien.
