We Are One

Many Meetings

Haldir carried his treasure gently to his talan and put her in his bed. She looked so peaceful and angelic lying there that all Haldir wanted to do was stare at this beautiful creature before him. Haldir had to smile in spite of himself. Somehow without doing anything, Hithiel brought to him a new sense of peace. The smile quickly turned into a frown when he remembered what he did to Ambaril. 'He deserved it, that son of an orc!'

His masters were going to be very angry with him, but Haldir forced that unpleasant thought away. Haldir gazed at Hithiel once again and gently reached up and brushed the back of his hand against her cheek At that moment the sleeping Elf moaned in her sleep. Haldir quickly drew his hand back and watched as her green eyes snapped into life. Hithiel sat up violently in her bed, arms flailing at an unseen foe. "No!" she cried in a voice that went straight to the Guardian's heart.

"Shhhh, you're safe now," whispered Haldir soothingly brushing a strand of raven hair out of her face. "Ambaril's gone."

Hithiel looked around and noticed her surroundings for that first time. Her eyes traveled from a sturdy oak desk to a handsome wooden wardrobe, to the bed that she was sleeping in and finally her brilliant emerald eyes rested on the beautiful Guardian before her. "Where am I? And who are you?" she asked suspiciously. She recognized his face. The beautiful face that haunted her mind ever since she saw it.

"My name is Haldir, son of Halmir. I am a Guardian of these woods and you are a guest in my humble home," he gestured towards his talan.

"What happened to Ambaril? The last thing I remember was.was him putting me to sleep."

"He's out cold for the moment but I think he'll be alright," said Haldir grimacing at the thought.

Hithiel smiled that wonderful smile at him and Haldir nearly melted right there. "I'm Hithiel, maiden of Imladris. It must be great to live here," she said in awe as she looked out the window in the talan. Her eyes took in everything as they scanned the horizon.

"Are you feeling better now?" asked Haldir. "The drug that he used on you was strong enough to put someone out for an entire day."

"I'm fine for now," she answered. "I've spent years training myself to develop a resistance to most drugs."

"So you're a warrior?" asked Haldir even though he already knew the answer. Her answer was swift and sure. Her Elven pride shone in her eyes. Her next question caught her off guard though. "Could I come with you for the next guard duty? I've always wanted to train with the infamous guardians of the Golden Woods."

How could he deny her? One look at her pleading eyes was enough. "You can come but do not fall behind. We move swiftly and silently at night and it will be late before we return. Are you up to it?" he asked doubtfully.

Her eyes shone even brighter and she leaned forward till their noses almost touched. "Is that a challenge?" she whispered licking her rosebud lips.

Haldir smirked. "Yes."

~*~*~With Rumil~*~*~

He spied on the lovely Prince as he strolled through Lorien with his bow and arrow strapped to his back. He unconsciously licked his lips and his eyes were sparkling from desire. He grabbed a branch and swung out of the tree and landed without a sound. He walked towards the innocent Prince until he could almost reach out and grab his golden hair. He smirked and leaned forward towards him. "Where do you think you're going?" he teased playfully.

Legolas whipped his head around so fast that poor Rumil almost got whacked in the face with Legolas's golden mane. He turned around to find his old friend there grinning mischievously. Rumil reached down and grabbed a few strands of hair with his fingers. "You know you almost blinded me with your hair," he said feigning hurt.

"Oh, I'm so sorry 'Your Majesty.' Maybe you shouldn't go about startling people. If you're not careful, SOMEONE might mistaken you for an orc," Legolas retorted. Then he laughed. "It's good to see you again Rumil. I was wondering when you'll show up." He put his arm around Rumil and put his golden head down on his broad shoulder. He didn't notice that suddenly, Rumil became as tense as a bowstring.

Rumil swallowed hard and forced himself to not smother those tempting pink lips that haunted his dreams. "Come, Legolas. Are you not going to the archery fields anymore?" asked Rumil remembering the bow and quiver that his Elf was carrying.

"Nay," answered Legolas. "I wasn't going towards the archery grounds. I was just walking in the forest when SOMEBODY scared the heck out of me!" He laughed. They continued the friendly banter all the way till they reached a clear spring. "Look!" cried Legolas like an overly excited Elfling. "Come, Rumil. I want to swim after that hot journey here."

And with that, he began stripping off his tunic and tossing it carelessly on the mossy forest ground. Rumil's eyes widened as they wandered around Legolas's pearly white chest. Suddenly, his concentration was broken as a huge wave of water came at him leaving him soaking wet. He sputtered and opened his eyes to find a laughing Legolas. He started laughing and quickly stripped off his tunic and jumped into the clear refreshing pool, splashing the golden Elf.

~*~*~With Haldir~*~*~

Haldir walked under the golden branches of his forest with Hithiel. He never remembered being so happy before. It almost felt as if he were being reborn again. Hithiel was great company. She turned out to be extremely playful that it was hard to imagine that she was a great warrior inside. Just then, he felt someone shove him hard behind him. Haldir, being caught off guard, fell hard on his butt. He looked up into startling green eyes that twinkled mischievously. "You're going to pay for that!" He growled and made a playful grab towards her.

She easily avoided his grip and ran lightly into the forest. "Hey, wait, come back here!" Haldir shouted after her.

She turned her head back and grinned. "Come and get me!" she taunted.

Haldir got up swiftly and raced after the beautiful Elf. He quickly gained on her and then put on an extra burst of speed at the end but he didn't expect Hithiel to stop and he ran right into her. He fell on top of her and they rolled down a steep hill. Haldir was still on top of her when they got to the bottom. Both of them were laughing so hard that it was hard to draw a breath.

As their laughter faded, they suddenly realized the position they were in. Haldir blushed slightly and quickly stood up. He offered a hand to Hithiel and helped her up. She was beautiful, with her face flushed from laughter and her eyes shining with excitement. Hand in hand, Haldir and Hithiel went deeper into the woods, not noticing jealous eyes boring into their back.
