Title: The Passing of Time
Author: Blessed Spirit (Lyn)
Rating: PG-13 (may be for other chapters)
Summary: (new) First in a series of three following the lives of Aragorn's daughters. Celebrian, being the youngest, is faced with depression, and confusion after the death of her parents. She feels lost in Gondorian society, there is only one person who can give her a feeling that she belongs, but will she allow him in her life?
A/N: Yah! Chapter two! I'm not EXTREMELY happy with this chapter, I've worked on it for about two weeks now, and it still doesn't seem right. But I need to post sooner or later, or else I will lose interest, heh heh. My authors not from the last chapter still applies, and I think I should warn you this will turn into a "Legomance" as they call it, heh. So if you don't like that genre, turn around now, and don't look back. And I will say this as many times as it is necessary, this is not a self inserted character, I did not base Celebrian off of myself, nor would I want to be in her position (well living in Middle Earth would be cool, but who actually wants their parents to die?). Aragorn and Arwen did in fact have several daughters, from my research I haven't been able to find the names, ages, etc., so basically I'm just filling in the details (with a few moderations).
Estimated Chapters: 40-45 (Yup, that's how long I'm guessing this story will be. Mainly because I don't want it to be some "Oh my gosh your cute I want to marry you!" type thing. I don't think that love is really like that, and it's a common mistake with Mary Sue, opps, I mean "legomance" stories.)

Eyes quietly watched as Celebrian rushed through the large corridors, her footsteps echoing off the marble floors, pounding ominously into her head as each second passed.
She sighed as she reached the end of the corridor, two oak doors stood face to face with her. Her breath caught in her throat, her eyes started to well up, she tried to open to door, but her heart wouldn't let her do it, her hand stood numbly on the handle, slightly shaking. She didn't want to open the door to see what she would find, she wanted to stop the moment in time so that time itself would not consume her father.
A second pair of footsteps could lightly be heard on the flooring. Celebrian didn't turn around, she knew it was Eldarion.
"What are you doing?" He asked, slightly confused.
"I can't do it Eldarion, I cant go in there," she said quietly, barely above a whisper.
He lightly pushed passed her, and she rested her head on the opposing door. She closed her eyes as soon as his hand hit the metal handle. The door slightly creaked open, and she slowly opened her eyes. Eldarion was standing in the doorway.
"Come on," he said, moving over to let her through the door.
Celebrian took a deep breath, held her head up, and walked through the door, but slowly began to crumble after each footstep. Arwen was kneeling at Aragorn's side, she had his hand pressed against her forehead, tears streaming down her face.
"Mother," Eldarion said as he quietly approached her. "What news from the doctors?"
Arwen looked up at her only son. Her eyes were red from the tears, and faint wrinkles were staring to appear on her forehead, her mortality became more apparent with each passing day.
"They say that death is upon him now," she replied wearily.
Celebrian stood at the end of her father's bed, two tears trickled down her face. She didn't bother to wipe them away. Her father was dying, she didn't care if people knew that she was upset.
Lorelle walked in several minutes later, she glanced around at Celebrian and Eldarion timidly as she approached Arwen. "Ma'am?" She asked, her voice slightly cracked.
Arwen turned head to Lorelle. "What is it?"
"Could I please have a moment to talk with you?" She spoke quietly, trying not to wake Aragorn from his peaceful sleep. Arwen nodded, slowly stood up, and followed Lorelle out of the room, her silver gown brushed against the floor as she walked.
Eldarion shrugged, as Celebrian looked at him in question. They both stayed still as their ears strained to hear any part of the conversation, but all they could hear through the door was a distant murmur.
A few moments later Arwen came back into the room, a faint smile appeared upon her face. She rushed back down to Aragorn's side, and lightly shook his hand. His eyes slowly opened, they darted around the room, finally resting on Arwen, he flashed a smile, a smile he was famous for, a smile that even while on his deathbed would not darken.
"Estel!" She said, her voice filled with excitement, "Estel, your friends are coming!"
