Chapter two:

Swane was still engrossed with her reading when she walked into her house. As soon as she came in her sister was upon her shouting angrily.
"I want my book!" the 8 year old shouted.
"You can barely understand this!" Swane retorted just as upset.
"So!" that seemed to be the best excuse ever in the younger child's mind. Swane threw the book at her younger counterpart and went to the couch where her mother lay sleeping.
"How was your day?" the woman replied groggily.
"Fine," she lied. She could even fool her mother, it was kind of sad.

Merry stood outside a bit blind-sided at his cousin's behavior. It wasn't like Frodo to just run off like that! Really he had been odd since Bilbo had come back. Frodo usually loved it when his uncle came to visit, but this time something was different. Frodo wasn't like himself at all.
Merry walked back into the spacious hole and was greeted by the smells of living and warmth. Oh how he loved that smell, the one smell of his favorite place in the world, home. He had often mentioned it to Frodo and Frodo loved it too! He and Frodo were very alike in many ways. They both loved Buckland, they both loved getting into mischief, and they even both loved their Uncle Bilbo. It pained Merry greatly to see the one hobbit he cared for most in so much torment.
(*)
Swane logged onto the Internet like she usually did when she got home. A female voice reminded her that she had mail and Swane quickly clicked on the mailbox expecting Forwards from her cousin and junk.
As it turned out she had a few reviews from a fiction site and a survey from her cousin, Cathy. There were also a few e-mails from her friend Deanna her friend since she was very small. One stood out though, the header read A Virtual Bouquet For You! Swane clicked it pondering on what the hell it might be.
She clicked on the link it sent her too and there stood the most beautiful bouquet of sunflowers she had ever seen. Obvious her friend had not forgotten that she absolutely ADORED sunflowers. Swane smiled as a tear came to her eye, the message read: Dear Swane, just want to let you know that I will ALWAYS be there for you. No matter what it is you go through. I love you like a sister too! - Deanna. Swane smiled through her tears and kept the e-mail as new.
(*)
Frodo couldn't help himself. He ran to his room and cried long and hard. Not only was this a terrible day he felt as if Merry hated him! He could never tell him though, some things just weren't meant to be shared. There are just some burdens he could not share. The worst thing was that he had never hidden something from Merry. Merry knew everything about him, from his first loose tooth to his first female hobbit 'friend.'
There was a soft knock at the door. Frodo ignored it.
"I know you're in there!" Merry exclaimed.
"Go Away!" Frodo replied burying his head into his pillow.
"I won't leave and you know it!" the other hobbit retorted stubbornly. Frodo sighed and got up to open the door but stopped as his hand hovered over the knob.
"What do you want?" he troubled hobbit asked.
"To make sure you're all right!"
"Why?"
"Because I care for you! You know that you can always come to me for anything you need and I'm worried because you haven't." Frodo smiled through his tears.
"I'm fine!" he lied
"You're not, but you don't want to talk so I'll leave you be!" Merry knew him too well, Frodo thought, way too well.

Swane popped in her Evanescence CD as she surfed the Internet. She went around look at random hot movie star sites and was soon bored. Not soon after Cathy logged onto the Internet. Swane could tell because Invisible began to play next to the loud guitar of her favorite Rock band.
*Cowboizfureva: Hey chic! Hows goins?
**Swayin2damusic: Jus fine, I got Flowers!
Cowboizfureva: Frum who???
Swayin2damusic: Deanna, she's a real pal, it made me cry.
Cowboizfureva: Oh gurrl!
Swayin2damusic: Oh don't I'm fine...really.
Cowboizfureva: U sure as hell ain't!
Swayin2damusic: Why are you the only one I can't fool?
Cowboizfureva: Cause I was there the day you were born!
Swayin2damusic: You weren't even a year old!
Cowboizfureva: So???
Swane smiled at her dear cousin's antics. At least she was smiling.

Frodo sat down in the middle of his floor. He couldn't think of what else to do, he just sat there. Time slipped away and the winter gray turn into the dark dusk of a cold late winter night. He didn't come to his senses until Merry returned long after supper.
"Frodo?" he asked knocking. The poor distracted hobbit jumped and ran to open the door. Merry stood with a sandwich in his hand and offered it to him. Frodo took it and looked at it like he'd never seen one before.
"It's a sandwich," his dear cousin responded, "You eat it." Merry demonstrated by putting his hand in his mouth and ferociously clamping his teeth down on it. Frodo looked up and sighed laying the sandwich on a nearby table.
"Did you happen to see Uncle Bilbo any today?" Frodo asked going over to his bed and sitting on it, his feet hanging over the side. Merry smiled crossing over and sitting next to the poor distract hobbit.
"Yes, but only at supper, which you missed if you hadn't noticed." "I noticed," he mumbled looking at his feet.
"Frodo, you can tell me what's wrong!" Merry urged obviously very scared about what was eating him.
"I can't! I'm not even supposed to know about it!"
"How many things have we both supposed to not have known about?" he asked haughtily.
"Too many," Frodo responded monotonously.
"Then what makes this different?"
"EVERYTHING MERRY, EVERYTHING!" Frodo shouted then beginning to cry again, "I just don't know what to do!" he sobbed. Merry put his arm around his cousin's shoulders.
"Hey, it's okay!" he soothed, "I shouldn't have pushed I'm sorry! It's okay!"
"It's not Merry, it'll never be okay," he looked up into his cousin's eyes his own heavy with his guilt. Merry looked into the deep blue eyes of his cousin and for one moment felt the pain that was in him. It was at that moment that he kissed his cousin.

Cowboizfureva: I g2g lylas chic! Ttyl!
Swayin2damusic: Okay laterz! Lylas too!
Swane logged off also not knowing what else to do. She up to her room and placed in her Backstreet Boys CD that she hadn't listened to in years. As she fell back into her bed she allowed the beautiful harmonies overflow her body.
"Show me the meaning of being lonely," they crooned as she sighed deeply and closed her eyes trying to block out the weekend that had caused her so much pain.
