Chapter 7

Legolas stirred but he did not want to wake up. He felt very light-headed.

'Maybe I should lie a little longer.'

He liked the warmth and scent that linger around him. His head rested against something soft but solid.

'That's strange. It doesn't felt like my pillow.' Slowly he allowed himself to opened his eyes. He ws about to greet the sunshine when he realized something blocked his view.

Then he felt something wrapped around his waist. Quickly, he looked up and saw Elladan was sleeping beside him, and he had his arms wrapped around his waist.

He realized he had rested his head against Elladan's chest while he slept. The warmth of Elladan's body must have made him snuggled closer and ended with Elladan held him in his arms while he slept.

'What the... I have to get out,' Leoglas thought, panicking. he had never slept in another's embrace before, other than one of his family, and the situation now he is in, scared him.

Legolas had to think of a few ways to get himself out of Elladan's embrace. He had decided to not wake the sleeping elf.

He did not want to face any embarrassment from the older elf. 'Maybe I can wriggled slowly from his arms. But how?'

As he was thinking, he couldn't help inhaling the sweet scent that seemed to b coming from Elladan's body.

He sighed. Whether it was in content of the position he is in or in frustration as he could not figure a way out, he did not know.

He had to try again so he wriggled slowly, careful not to wake the sleeping elf.

Unknown to him, Elladan had already waken, from the moment Legolas stirred as the elf was a light sleeper. But he did not want to make his awakening known to the other elf.

At every attempt of Legolas to wriggled out of his arms, he tighten his embrace a little. He smiled with his eyes closed. He know Legolas could not see his smile because he had the shorter elf's head under his chin.

He heard Legolas sighed in frustration. His wriggling has now grown harder and faster. Smiling to himself, he leaned sloser to Legolas in their embrace, securing the younger elf in his embrace.

Legolas was startled by the movement. There was no way he could get out of the embrace now. He was held to Elladan's chest that he could hear his heart beating. Somehow, that had a soothing effect on him.

Subconciously, he had closed his eyes and savoured the moment. Besides feeling embarrassed, nervous and scared, he felt content, safe and happy. And loved.

He was confused to have all these feelings mixed up inside him but yet helpless to know nothing on how to face these mixed feelings.

He now understand the feeling of happiness of waking up in one's embrace. One that you loved.

Love? Legolas sighed. He knew nothing of this kind of love. But for now, he was content.

he was brought back to reality when he realized that he still need to get out of Elladan's secured arms around his waist. But he had no way out, not one without waking Elladan. He cursed softly.

Meanwhhile, Elladan was still holding Legolas close to his chest, his chin to the prince's golden head, he inhaled the scent on Legolas's hair.

He loved the scent of Legolas. Of mountain dew and musk combined together. Sweet and tender to inhale. Throw in a little scent of the woods and grass, just slightly.

Then you add in the scent of morning crisp air, fresh dew drops on the leaves and the morning rays of the sun.

Elladan silently sighed. A heavenly scent. And he had the chance to breathed the sweet scent now. It gave him a reason to rejoice for being alive at that moment.

He turned his attention back to Legolas when he heard the prince swore. He chuckled but stopped when he realized he had chuckled out quite loudly.

Legolas proved to have heard him when he jumped from his embrace. The movement had caught Elladan by surprise that he had not the chance to restrained the prince so he just stared at the prince with a grin on his face.

Legolas turned to face Elladan, pointing a finger at him and yelled," You deceptive being! You were awake all the while!"

Elladan chuckled before replying calmly," If you want to get up, all you had to do was asked."

Legolas grumbled a bit before he turned towards the door, intending to leave the room.

Elladan jumped at the prince and carried him on his shoulder before dropping back him onto the bed. Legolas yelled in protest but before he could get up, Elladan pinned him to the bed with a mischievous grin on his face.

Without any warning, Elladan started to tickle him. Legolas squealed and shrieked as Elladan tickled him.

"Argghhhhh....... Stop...Stop....Arrghhhh.... Ahahahahhhhaa....Arrghhhhhhh!!!!!!!!" Legolas yelled, breathless, as Elladan's fingers found its way to his ticklish spots.

Elladan stopped the tickling and asked, his fingers still ready on his target," Do you yield?"

Legolas just stared at him, having no more breath to talk. But that proved to be a bad move because Elladan thought he did not yield so he continue with his mrciless tickling.

Again, Legolas squealed and shrieked with all his might, laughing and crying at the same time.

"No..... stop..... I yield.... I yield..... Have mercy my Lord.... Arrghhhhhhhhh....."

Finally Elladan thought that Legolas had had enough of his torture, he stopped tickling the younger elf.

Legolas was out of breath. He was still smiling, but now he was also out of breath. He looked at Elladan.

Elladan marveled at the beauty before his eyes. Even if Legolas's hair were messy now, tear stained on his cheek, he could still took the young Lord's breath away.

Elladan caressed the prince's face with his hands, gently. He gently brushed the golden locks away from Legolas's face.

Legolas's smile disappeared from his face. He could hear his heart beats faster with each inch Elladan took nearing his face.

Legolas breathed heavily but not because he was out of breath but because he knew Elladan wanted to kiss him.

Gazing into Elladan's eyes, he could hear a song being sung softly at the back of his head.

" Hold me now,

Stop the morning light from breaking

Something's coming over me

Don't know what it is I'm saving

The clock ticks by

And it just might changes everything

If I don't give you all that's waiting

Who knows what tomorrow will bring?

If I try not to need you

I'd be hiding from myself "

As he feel the warmth of Elladan's lips neared his own, he closed his eyes and waited.

TBC...

*Hiding Behind a couch*

I'm sorry... I'm Sooooo sorry.... I just couldn't help myself... The temptation is just toooo great...

Hahahahahahaha........

Come on, let me know what you think...
