Slightly Angst slight fluff. Nice mix.
"Aragorn, I love you, and I want us to send time together, honestly I do. But if you do not leave me alone for five minutes before dinner, I will do something that we will both later regret." Legolas scowled at the sight of his husband pretending to clean the room whilst making sure Legolas was well.
"Legolas what are you talking about. I am simply picking up these tunics that I accidentally dropped here five minutes ago." Aragorn knew that his pretence had been seen through but he was not one to give up easily.
Rising from the dressing table where he had tried to make his hair look presentable and hide the noticeably shorter parts were the men had cut of his hair. It was not working. Holding Aragorn by the arm the elf half dragged and led the man to the door and told him he would meet him at dinner.
The man left leaving the blond on his own. Hearing Aragorns footsteps reach the end of the hall, Legolas turned and started to cry.
The tears which he had been with holding for four days started to come. He had not wanted to cry in front of his husband who already blamed himself enough without having to worry about anything else. Legolas just lay there letting the tears flow .
Back in the dining hall Aragorn was getting worried Legolas was half an hour late, ad for the normally punctual elf this was a big difference.
Just deciding to go check on the elf, Legolas entered the hall. Bowing to Eomer and his wife Lorindel he apologised for holding them up. The tears from earlier were again enclosed by a mask of happiness and tranquillity.
Taking his seat beside Aragorn Legolas kissed Aragorns check and thanked him for leaving him on his own. Aragorn was still suspicious about Legolas's late arrival but ignored the feeling after Legolas seemed fine.
The couple sat side by side during the meal. Legolas simply picked at a small plate of fruit and when asked if he was well he simply replied that he smell of the meat was making him feel sick again. Thankfully it seemed as if the morning sickness was finally subsiding thanks to Aragorns human side within the children. But it was still not completely gone.
After the meal had ended and been cleared away, King Eomer stood up. "Lords , Ladies and Friends. I know we do not usually have feasts such as this on normal occasions but this is not one. We are celebrating the safe return of the Prince of Mirkwood and Prince Consort of Gondor Legolas Telcontar Thranduilion." at this Aragorn wrapped his arm around Legolas's waist.
The Lords and Ladies started to clap. Then the moment was over and the hall started to fill with talk and laughter. Eomer invited all of those at the top table back to his private study for a glass of wine all excepted apart from Legolas who pleaded exhaustion to escape.
After parting with his friends and lover he ran upstairs and into their chambers once there he started to cry again.
Whilst in the company of so many humans Legolas had been terrified. He had barely been able to hide his fear. He felt that at any moment the were all going to attack him, he knew that this was ridiculous he knew they would not but he could not stop the feelings.
Changing from his tunic into a night gown Legolas got into the bed and ran his hands gently over his stomach. The bump was getting bigger every day and he was becoming slightly self-conscious over it. Sighing the elf stopped crying and closed his eyes trying to enter the dream world. Nothing happened.
After spending the evening in the company of his friends Aragorn was happy. And now he got to climb into bed with the most beautiful creature in the world. Entering the room he saw Legolas lying on the bed looking asleep.
After changing he climbed onto the bed and placed his arms around the waist of his husband.
Shocked Aragorn could feel the slight tremble of Legolas's body. Holding the elf close to his chest, he started to talk quietly. "What is it. What's wrong my angel. Please tell me." Aragorn kissed Legolas's head.
Legolas turned his head upward and Aragorn could see the unshed tears in the bright blue eyes. The next three words out of the Elf's mouth nearly broke the mans heat "I am scared." The man rubbed the elf's back gently and the pair lay the with Legolas I Aragorns arms for hours neither wanting or needing to speak to each other.
When dawn broke the man started to speak. "Legolas I know that you are scared, but I promise that I will never let you be hurt again.. If any body Man , Elf, or Dwarf tries to hurt you they will have to get through me. And if they manage that then they would have to fight Gimli, Gandalf and your Father. Any one insane enough to try would be killed before they came in a hundred miles of you."
The words seemed to comfort the elf. And after hours of being comforted by the man Legolas fell into a dreamless sleep caused by days and nights of nightmare filled dreams which had left him drained.
The pair rested till late morning and when they awoke both looked happier than they had in days.
Go me Go me. I can not believe how many chapters that I have written for this story. I ma considering leaving it for a while to start a new story that I have an idea for.
The brief outline is that Legolas was sent to live with Elrond in Rivendell when he was little because Thranduil is abusive and blames Legolas for his wife's death. Whilst there he meets Aragorn who is about the same age. ( it will be AU) It may end up as slash or may be a friendship story. It's been done a hundred times but you never know it may work for me and if it doesn't then nothing ventured nothing gained.
What do you think. I need ideas. Please Review. It would make me happy. And a happy writer is less likely to torture Legolas
