Chapter 2
Aragorn came downstairs in the morning and saw Legolas getting ready.
"Why are you getting all dressed up?" Aragorn asked.
"I have a date with Vanima," Legolas responded.
"Oh really. For breakfast?" Aragorn asked.
"No for dinner. I just want to make sure she'll like the way I look," Legolas said.
"Legolas, you have nothing to worry about. Trust me." Aragorn reassured his friend.
"Really?" Legolas smiled
"Really. Would I lie to my best friend?" Aragorn laughed.
"You're right. Thanks Aragorn," Legolas said.
For the rest of the day, Legolas was nervous. He didn't want to mess up on this date. It was now time and he rode over to Vanima's house. He knocked on the door and Vanima opened the door.
"Legolas, hi," Vanima smiled.
"Hi. Wow you look beautiful." Legolas smiled.
"Thanks. You look very nice too," Vanima smiled.
Legolas took her hand and helped her onto his horse.
"So Legolas, where are we going?" Vanima asked.
"Aragorn told me of this nice cozy place not far from here," Legolas said.
The ride took some time since it was outside Gondor. Finally the two arrived at The Beautiful Sun.
Indeed the place was cozy. It was a small, out in the middle of nowhere place.
"This is very nice," Vanima said.
"Yea it is. Aragorn was right about it," Legolas said.
The two of them found a cozy booth in the corner. They both ordered a Lembas bread special and them some dessert. After dinner, the two went for a walk around the lake.
"Legolas, look at the moon. It's so beautiful," Vanima said.
"Just like you," Legolas said kissing her cheek.
She held his hand as they walked around. Legolas couldn't believe how happy he was. He felt like he was in love for the first time.
The night started to get colder and Legolas noticed that Vanima was getting tired. They walked back over to his horse and he rode her home.
"Well, goodnight," Legolas said, unsure if he should kiss her or not.
Vanima leaned over and kissed him.
"Goodnight Legolas," she said.
Shocked, Legolas just stood there as Vanima walked inside. Once he came back from the shock, he rode back to Gondor and saw Aragorn waiting outside.
"Aragorn, why are you awake? You didn't have to wait for me," Legolas said.
"I wanted to make sure she didn't hurt you," Aragorn said.
"But why would she?" Legolas asked.
"Come inside, there's something you may want to see," Aragorn said.
When Legolas sat on the couch, Aragorn showed him a newspaper.
"It has the recent engagements listed. Vanima is listed as being engaged," Aragorn broke the news to his friend.
Aragorn came downstairs in the morning and saw Legolas getting ready.

"I have a date with Vanima," Legolas responded.
