Since becoming Elven, no one had been able to wipe the smile off Aragorn's face. In truth, Elrond had never seen him look so happy. Elrond was concerned about what would happen once Aragorn and Legolas left Mithlond. Everything was fine amongst friends but how would the rest of middle Earth react to the news of a union between an Elven King and the King of Men.

Elrond sighed and went to try and find his son. He didn't have to go far. Within moments of leaving his bed chamber, he was attacked by a full-on Aragorn assault.

"Ada, I was just looking for you."

"And I was coming to find you."

"What do you wish to see me about?" Aragorn asked.

"No utinu, you first."

Aragorn was beaming so much that Elrond didn't have the heart to wipe his smile at that exact second.

"I was just speaking to Galadriel and she told me the Lord Celeborn will be arriving in a few days and when he does come, Legolas and I will be able to be married. Isn't that wonderful."

"Yes Estel; that is wonderful news."

Aragorn caught the slight hesitation in his fathers tone and his smile dropped slightly.

"Ada, what is wrong? I thought you were happy for Legolas and I. If this is about Arwen, she and I had an understa…"

"No Estel, it isn't about Arwen. And I am extremely happy for you. Now have you told Legolas about this news?"

"No not yet."

"Then go and find him and then come back to see me and we can begin to prepare the celebrations."

Aragorn embraced his father and ran back down the hall in search of his fiancée. Elrond sighed as he watched the retreating figure. He knew a talk was inevitable but finding an appropriate time was becoming increasingly difficult. He took a deep breath and decided to push the problem aside for the present. He had a wedding to prepare.

Aragorn ran outside into the gardens where Legolas was practicing his archery. Upon seeing him in utter concentration, Aragorn slowed and sat down to watch. Legolas had his back to Aragorn but still he smiled.

"I know you are there Aragorn."

"I didn't wish to disturb you. I will come back and talk to you later."

"Aragorn, I will always have time for you. And besides, you and I can practice together."

Aragorn nodded and retrieved his bow and arrow from seat where it was lying.

"So what did you wish to talk to me about?" Aragorn asked as he picked up an arrow.

"I did not say that I wished to speak with you about anything." Legolas replied.

"Legolas."

"Alright alright, so maybe there was one small matter I wished to speak with you about."

Aragorn let his arrow fly and it hit the bullseye.

"Aragorn, have you given any thought about what is to happen when we leave this place. We will be married hopefully and as yet, we haven't even discussed the logistics of our life."

Aragorn sighed and watched for a moment and Legolas' arrow split his in two.

"I have given it some thought but my mind always seems to wander toward a happier line of thinking. I know that there will be some things that need to be discussed and I am sure that my father can help. But would it be okay if we thought about something happy for a moment and not give too much thought to the outside world."

Legolas put down his bow and put his hands on Aragorn's hips. He smiled at the almost innocent expression on his face.

"Of course we can. But please remember that we will have to discuss this eventually."

"Don't worry, we will. Now can I tell you my news?"

"Of course you can."

"Lord Celeborn will be arriving in a few days, maybe less. When he does, we will be able to be married."

Legolas broke into a huge smile and gave a loud shout that frightened a small bird out of it's nest.

"Really? That soon? Oh Aragorn, then you and I will be able to be together as one."

"I know. I'm so excited. I love you."

"And I love you."

They kissed in the middle of the garden, not noticing the group of Elves and men that had come running at Legolas' shout.

"Your Majesty's, is everything alright?" Galinna asked

Aragorn and Legolas broke apart and began blushing.

"All is well Galinna. Legolas and I will need some help for preparing our wedding though so if any of you has any suggestions, we will be happy for your contribution.

Everyone began to speak at once in their excitement of the wedding.

"One at a time please." Legolas laughed. "How about you all talk about this amongst yourselves and then you can send one person to talk to us about it."

The assembled group bowed low and then huddled together in a group. Gimli and Melancier made their way out of the group and over to the kings.

"So this is all news. When is the wedding going to be?" Gimli asked.

"In a few days. As soon as Lord Celeborn can get here." Aragorn answered.

"Well that doesn't leave you much time." Melancier pointed out.

"We do not need much time." Legolas replied, "All our friends and family are here. All we really need is Celeborn."

"What are planning on wearing?" Gimli asked.

"Well…I don't actually know." Aragorn admitted with a smile.

"Well this wont do." Melancier frowned, "Come on, Legolas you come with me, Aragorn, I'll send Caladen to your chamber."

Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli all rolled their eyes at their suddenly bossy friend but followed her orders.

For two days, hardly anyone got any sleep. Although there didn't seem to be much to prepare, someone was always coming up with something that had to be done. Aragorn and Legolas were fitted with completely new outfits that they insisted they didn't need and Melancier insisted they did.

Elrond and Galadriel sat back and watched as one of the hobbits ran past obviously on some kind of mission to get something that as Melancier kept saying, "The wedding really needs."

"In some ways, this wedding is going to be bigger than that of Aragorn and my daughter." Elrond confided.

"In some ways, yes it will be. Because this time, the love goes further than mutual respect. Everyone who is still here cares for either Legolas or Aragorn or both and they wish to be part of the love the two of them share."

"I am concerned what will happen after the wedding."

"Your concerns are just." Galadriel confirmed, "Even for all my foresight I can not see everything. I know that there will be pain and hardship but so there is for all relationships. And through out all their trials they will still have each other."

"With each other, they can achieve anything." Elrond smiled.

Celeborn arrived that night. His arrival resembled that of Galadriel's except this time, he bore much more respect. Aragorn and Legolas knelt before him as a sign of respect.

"Creoso aredhelamin." The spoke together.

"Hannon lle Aran Legolas ar' Aran Elessar."

Lord Celeborn went before them and greeted his wife before turning back to the people before him.

"I am here to celebrate the union of the two before me. The ceremony shall begin at five o'clock tomorrow morning.

Everyone cheered and followed the Lord and Lady into the dinning hall. Legolas and Aragorn hung back to walk with Gimli.

"Five O'clock. Five O'clock. Why can't you people do things at a more normal hour." He complained.

Aragorn laughed and took Legolas' hand.

"This time tomorrow we shall be married." He whispered into the elf's ear. Legolas just smiled and together they followed their friends.

At five O'clock the next day, all those who remained at Mithlond gathered by the waterfront and watched as Aragorn and Legolas made their way toward Celeborn. Legolas was wearing a Silver tunic with green leggings while Aragorn wore a silver tunic with blue leggings. The pair complemented each other to utter perfection.

When they both stood before Celeborn, the ceremony began.

"Not often does a union between two people with as much love as the two before me happen. May their days be blessed by the Vala who watches over us all."

Celeborn turned to Legolas and took one of his hands.

"Legolas, do you take this man to become one in the union of love and friendship. To give up all that you hold dear in this world for a bonded life with another."

"I do."

Celeborn then turned to Aragorn and took his hand.

"Aragorn, Do you take this Elf to become one in the union of love and friendship. To give up all that you hold dear in this world for a bonded life with another."

"I do."

Galadriel came forward and handed her husband a piece of cloth that seemed to shimmer with every colour known to man. Celeborn took the Legolas' hand and entwined it with Aragorn's'. He then wrapped the cloth around the joined hands and tied it.

"With all the power I have within me, I announce the couple before me as one in mind and soul."

The cloth that bound Aragorn's and Legolas' hands shimmered and fell away leaving nothing behind but a cloud of sparkling dust that floated off with the breeze. Everyone held their breath as Aragorn and Legolas shared their first kiss if their married life. As their lips met, the sun rose behind them, spilling her light upon the pair. Caladen and Melancier let out small sniffles.

Aragorn let out a cry of delight, picked Legolas up and spun him around before setting him back down on the ground.

"My dreams have come true, I shall be with you forever."

"Yes you will be."

Legolas kissed him once more before smiling

"You will be mine forever. Ilfirinamin."
