100's of years had passed, but their relationship had remained the same, they were just friends.
They walked through the silent forest together, the sun shining through their golden hair, they had both become taller, more elegant, they walked gracefully, talking quietly and admiring the beautiful forest and the creature among it. Suddenly, Lalaithwen disappeared as if the ground had swallowed her up.
"Lalaithwen!" Legolas yelled as his face wore a worried look. "Where are you, Lalaith-"
"I'm down here you idiot" came a voice from below him
His worried expression became one of confusion for a few moments until, in his mind everything fell into place and a smile shone on his face. Legolas dropped down to join his friend in the darkness
"Don't you remember when we used to play here?"
"I do, I just forgot where it was"
A familiar cheeky smile spread across her delicate face.
"Well I did, this is the second time I've suprised you with this hole, but you didn't scream like a girl this time"
"I didn't scream last time either"
"You so did"
"Didn't"
"Did"
"Didn't"
Lalaithwen laughed, "When will you ever grow up?"
"Possibly sometime in the next thousand years"
"Even if you haven't grown mentally, you've grown physically, we barely fit in this hole now"
"Good point, we'd better get out before we get wedged in"
They scrambled out into the sunlight and as the sun shone onto Lalaithwen's face Legolas noticed something he had never seen before
"What are you staring at?"
"You look so different now, you've changed"
"Well I wasn't exactly going to look the same forever"
"Of course you've changed, but what I meant was that you look beautiful, more beautiful than anyone I have ever set eyes on"
She was indeed stunningly pretty, her well defined features, her large eyes, as blue as the sky above, her golden hair surrounding her face like a frame for a masterpiece. She was the very essence of beauty.
"You have also changed, long ago I noticed this, you've become a handsome young prince. Many women of this kingdom lust after you"
"And what do you think?"
Lalaithwen gazed into his eyes
"I have feelings for you, for long years I tried to supress them, fearing that you would not feel the same, fearing that revealing how I felt would destroy our friendship. But now I feel open to you, open to tell the world how I feel"
She lent in towards him, so close that she could feel the warmth of his breath, she paused, but before she could stop herself their lips had met and they were locked in a passionate embrace.
