Author's Note
Yay! An update! It's been awhile, a week and a half or so at least. But I've got a little update for you! Some slight angst. Next chapter will be more angsty. I'm trying to get all the emotional feelings I can into these chapters since I can't have Pippin and Merry together, yet anyway, until later chapters.
Nikki- Grrr!!! Yes! I hate Denethor sooo much!!! **makes growling face** My hatred for him will be expressed in the next chapter...I can't wait lol.
Lady S.- ANGST AND FLUFF! Why is that I am forced to survive on angst and fluff? Because angst and fluff is so wonderful!! That's why!! **does a ballerina twirl** Lol, your Pippin plushie is awesome **squeezes my Pippin plushie** We really should have Slash Addict meetings. But that means I'd have to give up my ANGST AND FLUFF!!
GGTgY- **sigh.** Pippin in armor. Here's a website I would recommend to you for awesome Pippin pictures, you'll have to type it in yourself, this won't let me type it on here. {w w w dot somethingtookish dot com slash pippin}
They have tons of still from all of the movies. (drool) They're fantabulous.
I can't wait until my Elements chapter is done!!! WHEE!! Chocolate syrup and whipped cream...hehehee
Bucklander35- Woot! Another new reviewer! **hands you button that says "I reviewed Stay!"** You are much welcome here in our eccentric little area of fanfiction.net!
Okay! On to the next chapter!! A little back to the present in Merry's point of view. Yes I know I said I'd make most of them from Pippin's pov but I like doing the present ones in Merry's pov for some reason. I LIED! Oh well. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Merry wrapped his arms all the more tightly around Pippin.
He hated recalling that night.
He hated the guilt he felt in the pit of his stomach every time.
He remembered the loneliness afterwards. After Pippin had left there had been nothing. It was all one bleak, war- filled day after another. Being here with him now seemed impossibly beautiful.
Merry remembered the camp before riding to war. All he had wanted to do was get out of there.
He knew they where they were headed, and he knew that that was where Pippin was.
So if what he had to do to get to him was to be in the battle for Middle Earth, so be it. He would fight one thousand wars for Pippin if that's what it would take.
He felt the lump in his throat rise again. It seemed that all they had ever done was cry. When there had been nothing else, there had been tears. Merry was tired of crying, but he knew these wouldn't be the last tears to fall.
Pippin knew something was wrong.
Merry could tell in the way he fidgeted his way out of Merry's arms just to turn and see his face.
"Merry? What's wrong?" he asked, his puzzlement evident on every bit of his face.
"Nothing Pip." Merry was smiling at least now.
He loved Pippin's concern at every silence in their conversation.
He loved everything about him.
Merry suddenly remembered what Lady Eowyn had said when Eomer had spoken against him going into battle with the rest of them.
"Why can he not fight for the ones he loves?"
