(A/N: sorry it's the short one,but more coming soon)
It had passed couple of days since me and Haldir agreed to be on a good terms. Since then we became inseparable, and we got to know each other better. We usually sat under a tree, like today, and conversed about things, laughing at our mischievous stories. I never knew anybody who could warm my spirit, like Haldir did these times when we were together. I even told him about my father and mother, and my loneliness that I felt most of the life.
Haldir listened to my tales very carefully and patiently because he understood most of the things that I was going through. I and him were almost alike in some ways more than another. He never knew his parents either, because they had died when he was a mere elfling. I had lost my mother when I was elfling too and my father, well, never cared for me or the rest of my siblings.
Oh how bitter was my life, but at least I had someone to talk about my feelings, if only for certain amount of time. I didn't mean to open myself deep to Haldir, because I knew that he wouldn't last long by my side, but something about him made it easier just to let go.
He told me that he doesn't believe that my father is a bad parent, because after all the parents love is the special one, and every child needs to posses it. I told him that he doesn't know my father very well and that he should be thankful for that.
There is one thing that I admired and was jealous about Haldir?s life. That thing was his love and care for his brothers and I wished too many times that I had siblings like that. All of my brothers and sisters were pompous type of people and only thing that they cared about were themselves.
As our conversation went on we heard some commotion right behind our backs, coming from the courtyard. Two identical faces were coming toward us and I smiled at them. Elladan and Elrohir, Lord Elrond's sons from Imladris, were fighting as usual and their voices were quite loud.
"I told you not to talk to me anymore. You have said enough, Elrohir."
"But I am telling you the truth. You always pick the lovers who will use you and run you down later."
"I've had enough, Elrohir. I don't need your lectures right now, brother."
I decided to ask them what they were about. I turned to Haldir and met his confusing look and I smiled at him, giving him a small nudge with my elbow.
"Elladan, Elrohir, are you two fighting again. What is it about this time, I hope it is not the silly cake like last time." I chuckled as I met Elladan's angered gaze and Elrohir's soft one.
"AI Legolas, please don't ask. Elrohir, started it really. Now if you will excuse me, I must go and try to escape my other bad half." Elladan furiously turned himself and left toward the caves.
"Elladan wait..." His twin turned too, leaving very confused elves behind them to sit under the tree.
"What was that all about?" Haldir asked as he tried not to laugh about all of this.
"Ummm...Don't mind them. That was one of their fits, but they will be all right about hour or so."
"You seem to know them very well." Haldir asked as he started to turn a leaf between his fingers.
"Yes, I knew them since I was the elfling. They thought me about some battle skills and we became sort of friends, when I was staying in Imladris"
"I saw them couple of times when they visited Lothlorien, but I never got to know them, nor did I utter any words with them."
I wanted to change subject so I scanned the questions in my head that I didn't get to ask him yet.
"So, Haldir, if you don't mind me asking, but....have you got lover back there in Lothlorien.
"No, I don't have one. I never found time to commit myself to one person or just to...Why do you ask?" Haldir blushed under my searching gaze and I smiled little at him.
"OOO,nothing.Never mind,I was just curious." I turned my head to the right as I tried to avoid Haldir's eyes and I saw Elrohir chasing Elladan through the trees.
"Oh those two"I openly laughed as I saw twins acting quite foolishly. Haldir joined me and I was glad for the twins sudden interruption out of this embarrassing situation, and that question that I asked Haldir earlier. I reminded myself to stop asking any personal questions because I would ruin the opportunity of being friend with Haldir. Only thing I had to do is to take this with steady pace, seduce him and send him his own way later.
But the more I got to know him the hardest this game would be to play. I looked at him and his smile and my heart stopped beating. There it was again this sudden urge to be closer to him, to hold him but I did not understand why. Suddenly I lowered my head so it was closer to Haldir's and I brushed the small kiss upon his lips.
His eyes widened in surprise and I pulled away, remembering what I had just done. I expected for Haldir to move away and to give me a lecture, but he just stayed still, still little in the shock as he searched my face.
"I am sorry. I won't do it again...I don't know what came over me." Haldir didn't respond to my words and I wondered if beyond that shocked expression lay wave of anger that was getting ready to be released. Out of the sudden my breath was knocked out of me as his lips captured mine in a breathtaking kiss. I couldn't believe this was happening and that I was being pulled in the heat that was Haldir. He moved me closer to him and I relished the sweetness of his lips.
But what happened fast, it finished itself with the same speed, like did our kiss. Two voices I heard and Haldir pulled himself from me. Elladan and Elrohir stood behind us with the smug smiles on their faces as they crossed their arms. Haldir stood up abruptly and suddenly fled from our tree in the fast pace, not giving me a chance to even call after him. I knew that the kiss we shared was something that Haldir was so scared off and that he was running from the only thing we were seeking those moments when we kissed. That thing was intimacy.
