OK, here's whats going on. I've noticed that a lot of you thought that Legolas wouldn't have forgotten about Laren, but I just wanted to say that they were the equivalent of 2 or 3 years old when they were split up. I can't remember any of my friends when I was a toddler unless they're still my friends now. Yup.
What's a Mary-Sue?!?! I've heard the term used a lot and I haven't a CLUE what it is!! can somebody please tell me. I hope I'm not just being stupid...
Elfique: I'm sorry you don't think it's that believable, but hey, it's a fanfic! It doesn' t HAVE to be believable. And personally I think this story's way better then my other one. If you dont like THIS one you'd have fun with that one.
Lady Serensa: I haven't a clue what you meant by your review. Please explain.
Oh and I'm sorry that I used chatspeak/abbr. (I think thats the stupidest thing ever, abbreviating abbreviation...meh) I didn't notice I had done that. Sorry. But I WILL use them in my intros and at the end. yup.
Disclaimer: I do not own any characters except for Laren. She's mine:D

The next day Laren and Legolas were sitting in the camp with everybody just talking about nothing in particular. Everybody was just relaxing, enjoying the time off from their quest.
"So Laren, how long have you lived here in Lothlorien?" Aragorn asked.
"Um... about 1700 years, I think. I've lost track over time." Laren said as she looked at Legolas who smiled.
"Merry! Merry! I've found mushrooms!" Pippin cried running over to camp with his arms full of mushrooms. As her ran, he tripped over a pole holding up their tent, causing the tent to collapse. One of the tent poles fell into the fire sending a burning log soaring through the air. It landing on Larens skirt making it catch fire. She squirmed about trying to put it out while Merry and Pippin hit her with blankets. Aragorn quickly ran over to the canteens and dumped all the water in them onto her skirt putting out the fire. Her skirt was ruined and her leg was badly burned.
"Here, hold this on your leg while we set up a make-shift tent." Aragorn said as he ripped off a peice of her wet skirt and folding it. As he and Legolas set up their tent again, Merry and Pippin tried to calm down the burnt girl.
"I'm so sorry, Laren! Please don't cry. Here, we'll make you laugh!" Pippin said. At this he stood up and tripped over his own feet on purpose landing on Merry who grabbed a couple of the forgotten mushrooms on the ground and stuffed them in Pippins mouth, making Pippin choke and splutter. This had the effect the hobbits had wanted. It caused Laren to laugh.
"No more crying now. Your leg will get all fixed up by Strider. He's really good at fixing people up! He fixed up Frodo's shoulder good when that black rider stabbed him, I'm sure he'll be able to fix you too!" Pippin said.
"Black rider?" Laren asked in confusion.
"Shut up Pip!" Merry muttered at Pippin.
"Oh...just nothing." Pippin replied turnin red.
"We're going to go help with the tent now." Merry said with a sideways glare at Pippin. Then they went to go help with the tent where they became more of a nuisance than a help. When the tent was up and sturdy Legolas went over to get Laren.
"Can you walk into the tent?" Legolas asked her.
"I don't know. Help me up and let's find out." She said. Legolas helped her stand just so she could fall over again form overbalancing on her left leg. "I don't think I can walk, Legolas."
"Ok" He replied. He picked her up and carried her over to the tent and placed her on the bed they had made for her. Aragorn was sitting there ready with some athelas and other healing herbs.
"Lets get a look at this burn then." He said moving her burnt skirt so he could see the wound. "Ouch, this is pretty bad eh?" he muttered quietly to himself so as not to scare Laren. He started cleaning the burn and putting healing herbs on it while Legolas and everybody else waited outside. A while later he came out.
"She's fine. But she's not allowed out of that bed for the rest of the day so her leg has some time to heal properly." he said. "Make sure she doesn't get up won't you?" He asked Legolas.
"Sure." he replied as he walked into the tent where he saw Laren getting out of bed.
"Uh uh. You're not getting out of bed today. Lie down." He said pushing Laren gently back onto the bed.
"Come on Legolas! I'm fine now! Let me get up!" she complained.
"No. I'm on strict orders to keep you in bed." Legolas replied with a nod.
"Who's "strict orders" are these?" She asked sarcasticly. Legolas could only smile.
"I'm not telling. Why don't you just go to sleep. It'll be easier to stay in bed quietly when you're alseep too." he said with a grin. "And besides it's getting dark."
"Fine! I give up! I'll do what you say!" Laren said as she grinned back at Legolas. She lay back against the pillow and closed her clear blue eyes. Legolas sat in the tent with her to make sure she actually fell asleep. He stroked her long brown hair to soothe her into a deep sleep. As soon as he was sure she was asleep he softly kissed her forehead and went back outside.
