Disclaimer: Not mine
I am sorry to say to any one interested that A second chance for Happiness has been taken off line by Fanfiction.net due to my terrible spelling and grammar. If anyone is interested in betaing it for me or knows someone who might wish to please email me so we can organise something. I would much rather it be read by someone who cared for the story.
Any way I fully intended to continue with Happily ever after.
The Hobbits, Gimli and Gandalf sat happily on the green lawn of Bag end. Inside were the royal couple sleeping after a long journey not made any easier by Legolas' condition. On the grass Pippin was retelling the story of the scouring of the Shire. Gandalf was starring into space and Sam was picking weeds from a flower bed.
Inside Rosie prepared evening meal. Half an hour later Aragorn and Legolas emerged from their bedroom both looking suitable refreshed. Aragorn kissed Legolas on the nose and rubbed his hand across Legolas' belly smiling at the purr emitted from his lover.
"Ahh. King Elessar, Prince Legolas the others are out in the garden if you wish to join them evening meal will be out there in a while." Rosie explained smiling at the couple whose arms were still entwined.
"Thank you Rosie. But please it is Aragorn and Legolas. We are all friends and have no need for fancy titles." Rosie agreed and the couple went to join the others.
Gimli was the first to spot Aragorn and Legolas walking towards them. "Sleeping beauty has finally awoken then" He stated.
"Yes. All I needed was the kiss of a handsome prince." Aragorn replied to laughter kissing Legolas gently. Helping Legolas to lower himself with some dignity to the floor Aragorn sat behind his lover who rested his fair head on the chest of his husband and smiled at him.
"So how has life been treating the King and Prince of Gondor?" Frodo enquired.
Legolas laughed "Not that good my friends we have had a few small problems although nothing for you to worry over." Gandalf and Gimli chuckled and Aragorn grinned stroking the top of Legolas' head fondly.
"A slight understatement there my love. But you are right there is no need for details." At this moment Rosie came out telling them that the meal was ready. Merry and Pippin went inside to help carry the food out. Legolas noticed that there was no meat and so it seemed did the others.
"Rosie why have we no meat? That pie in the kitchen yesterday looked lovely why not have that?" Merry asked.
"Because if Legolas is anything like my ma, the smell of cooked meat will make him feel extremely ill and that is not what is needed on the first day here." Rosie answered walking over to Legolas she handed him a plate full of delicious looking fruit and vegetables.
"Mmmm. Thank you Rosie these look wonderful and you were right the smell does make me ill." Legolas relied eagerly starting to eat the food.
The food was eaten quickly because all were made hungry by the exciting reunion and the travellers had not eaten such good food since Mirkwood. The friends stayed up late talking and joking until the pregnant elf bid them good night and soon everyone followed. That night all heads were filled with happy dreams and good times.
Sorry short chapter. But any update is better than no update. Right?
Any way. Contact me about the beta and I hope to have it up soon.
