Disclaimer: Like I said, I only own Legolas! He is on my wall right now!!! Muh Legolas... Drool.

Anelith Wood~ I know! I couldn't believe I missed him! I was gutted when my friend told me! I go back to school on Wednesday so three days of freedom left for me! Glad you liked the last chapter, hope you like this one to!

Sphinxx~ Glad you like so here's the next chapter!

A/N This chapter is Legolas' POV, there will probably be a few of these along with Valia's POV and maybe even Elrohir and Elladan's POV, I haven't decided as I'm writing this off the top of my head, but I do know what's going to happen so don't worry!!!

Chapter 5~ Why me?!

Legolas' POV

I was right! Elrohir and Elladan are been pains, they keep teasing me about Valia. Why can't they except we're just friends? It's all her fault, she had to go and say that before I could stop her! And I suppose this is Elrohir and Elladan's way of getting back at me for winning that stupid archery competition. Why me?!

They haven't even demanded a rematch of that archery competition which is unusual as that's what they always do if they lose anything. If only me and Valia hadn't walked into the banquet hall together.

Though I have to admit, Valia is a really nice, for a girl anyway. She's nothing like the ones back in Mirkwood who are always on my back. She's someone I can actually confide in I think and I've never had that before. Don't get me wrong, Elrohir and Elladan are my best friends, but they would only make fun of me if I told them the things I told Valia this morning about my home and how I feel. I think you can confide in girls about that kind of thing. And Valia is now one of my best friends, considering I've only known her a grand total of two days.

Great, here come Elrohir and Elladan. Why didn't I just go back to my tree by the fountain after breakfast instead of coming here to the archery fields, and I thought it would be a good idea to get in some practice seen as no one was here. And take out some of my anger Elladan and Elrohir had managed to work up.

"Hey Greenleaf!" Elladan said patting me on the back, ok I'm really not in the mood for more taunts.

They sat down next to me on the spectator's bench I was sitting, one on each side as I sat polishing my bow. "Hi," I said not looking up from what I was doing.

"So Legolas, what's up with that Valia girl?" Elrohir said. Oh well just get to the point!

"Nothing's 'up' with her, it's just like your father told you, we found her and rescued her and brought her back here now she can't remember anything of her past," I explained still not looking up.

Elladan opened his mouth to say something but I cut across him knowing exactly what he was about to say. "No Elladan, we're just friends, nothing more. We just happened to meet each other out by the fountain as we got up earlier than everyone else then we came to breakfast ok," I said putting on my calm voice before getting up and making my way out onto the archery field, bow in hand and quiver slung over my back.

As I fitted the first arrow into my bow I heard Elrohir and Elladan discussing what I had just said behind my back. I don't suppose they realised that their voices carried over the field to me quite clearly in the still afternoon.

"He's lying, they didn't just 'meet'," said Elladan to his twin.

"I know. I wonder if he's kissed her yet," Elrohir said a smile creasing his lips.

My concentration wavered as I fired the arrow and It completely missed the target. "See, she's so stuck in his little mind he can't even concentrate on his target." Elladan said in mock pity.

That's when I turned and came striding back towards them. They were so immersed in their conversation about me and my love life that they didn't even see me approaching.

"When will you two get it through your thick skulls!" I shouted to the two twins as they looked up. "Can't you understand? We're just friends, me and Valia. None of that rubbish you two keep going on about! So if you don't mind can you please stop discussing my love life and leave me alone! We are just friends, that's all!"

"You see dear brother, notice that extensive use of the word 'we'?" said Elladan, that same mock pity in his voice.

"I do brother, I do," replied Elrohir adopting that same mock pity.

"Look, why can't you except that we are just friends?" I said getting very annoyed by now.

"Ok, ok cool it Lego, we know you and Valia aren't ready to come out into the open about it all yet. After all, you have only known each other two days. But you have to tell us, have you kissed her yet?" said Elrohir excitedly.

"NO!" I yelled. "So just drop it you idiots!" and with that I stormed off back down towards Lord Elrond's house. Then I turned and decided to seek some peace at my tree by the fountain.

Little did I know that Valia was there yet again. Strangely I felt a tide of calm wash over me and I sat down next to her on the bench she always sat on.

"Hi," she said softly.

"Hi," I replied. "You like this spot huh?" I said.

"Yes. I like it. It's so quiet with nothing but sound of the running water of the fountain and the birds song. I find peace here. Now I see why you favour it so. You can just sit and think," she said closing her eyes and taking in everything.

"Yes, it is where I find my peace too. But I like to sit in the tree. That way, if anyone comes along I don't wish to talk to I can stay hidden there for as long as I need," I replied thinking back to Elrohir and Elladan and a serge of rare hatred ran through me. "So, what have you been thinking about?" I asked.

"Things," she replied. "Mostly that dream I had last night."

"You come up with anything?" I asked.

She turned o me and smiled. "No, I have no idea what it was about. Maybe you were right. I was just to over tired. But it's strange, but it all seemed very familiar to me. Like I knew the people and all that was going on around me. It's stupid though and I won't dwell on it any more I think."

I smiled at this. We talked for a while about stupid things. I showed her my bow and at this she asked me a question that I wasn't expecting.

"Could you, could you teach me how to use a bow?" she said looking into my eyes. Her green ones bore into mine. How could I refuse?

"Sure, if you like," I said. Great! Just great! I didn't mind teaching her archery it was the fact that when Elrohir and Elladan found this out they would have a field day, then they would defiantly have reason to think that there was something going on between me and Valia. Why oh why couldn't they just except that we were just friends?

"Thank you!" she said. Then she leaned over and planted a soft kiss on my cheek and got up and made her way back up to Lord Elrond's house. "Can we start tomorrow?" she turned back and asked.

"Y- Yeah sure. If -if you want," I stuttered. She smiled then tuned and went.

I sat for a while in a trance. She- she had just kissed me? On the cheek but still. If Elrohir and Elladan ever got wind of this they would never let me live it down. After a while I came back to myself and stood up, then swung up into my tree.

I climbed higher than I usually did so that I was emerged in the branches, completely out of view if anyone was to look up at the tree. There I stayed until dusk and watched the sun go down behind the hill as I so often did.

I felt a wonderful sense of bliss as I sat lounging on the branches of my tree. It was weird but I had a strange felling about Valia, one I'd never had about anybody else before.

A/N Waaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!! Hehehehe, well, looks like Legolas has fallen out with his too best friends, but they were been mean to him!!! Still, I have big plans for this and hopefully the end will turn out to be a little unexpected. Mwhahahahhaha! I know all!!!
