Chapter 2
Happily all four boys played that day in the gardens until the sun began to sink in the sky.
"Estel, Legolas, boys it is time to come in and wash up for dinner" Elrond called from the doorway. He was greeted by four very grimy faces, dirt streaked, yet smiling. "My goodness it looks like you all are very dirty indeed. Upstairs and bathe, dinner will be ready in an hour."
All four ran to their seperate rooms. Usually trailing behind the others because he was younger; Estel this time had managed to scoot past the others, to make it first to his room. As he opened the door to his bedroom Estel flung his boots from his feet. Then he ran into the washroom, leaving a trail of dirty clothes in his wake. There waiting for him was a hot bath filled just moments before. With a big splash he jumped in and sank beneath the water. It felt so warm and in no time he was clean. Estel jumped out of the tub and dressed quickly. Opening the door he ran into the next room where Legolas was staying.
"Are you still in the tub?" exasperated, Estel rolled his eyes.
"Yes, I for one do not rush the task of bathing. Just have a seat I will be out soon."
"Don't forget to wash behind your pointy little ears" Estel giggled. He sat down on the bed, and pulled a book from the bedside table to read while waiting. The soft blankets on the bed felt so soothing as Estel's eyes began to get heavy. "I'll just finish this chapter and Legolas should be done" he thought but his eyes closed and he was fast asleep.
"Estel I am ready now" came the voice of Legolas a few minutes later as he stepped into the room. What he saw was Estel curled up on the end of his bed, fast asleep. Moments later two dark heads peeked into the room.
"Aren't you ready yet Legolas? Come on Estel must have already beaten us downstairs."
Legolas turned smiling "I believe your brother had other things to do" he said stepping aside and pointing at the bed. "Should we wake him for dinner?"
"No let him sleep I will bring a tray up later for him" came the voice from behind them. Elrond looked at the now clean children and smiled. Estel had worn himself out. It was times like this that he was reminded Estel was only eight years old and not a century old elfling. "Come let us not disturb him; go and eat for tomorrow will be a big day."
The other three raced from the room as Elrond turned to join them. The three elves told their father of their latest adventures over dinner, as well as what they had gotten into that day.
"Ada we also took the provisions to Ataria as you asked" Elladan said, "She sent her thanks, but it seems she took a liking to our friend here" he explained pointing at Legolas.
"Yes she said he and Estel reminded her of her own sons, and the trouble and mischief they used to cause" came the solemn voice of Elrohir.
"I hope you were polite in your visit. It is a hard thing to lose a son, but to lose both is sure to be devastating."
All at the table were quiet for a moment, each knowing about losing a loved one. The silence was interrupted as Elrond spoke.
"I think the day has been long, and you should all go and get some sleep. Legolas I shall be up in a moment to get Estel, and bring him to his own room."
Legolas and the twins got up and ran up the stairs each saying their goodnights as they went to their rooms. When Legolas entered his room there still sleeping, laid Estel. As he went to cover him up a whimper came from the child. Estel's brow had beads of sweat on it, and he had fresh tears on his face. "Mellon nin, what troubles your dreams" Legolas thought. He went and sat beside the boy, rubbing circles on his back to soothe him. Legolas had grown very attached to the adan child. To him Estel was the brother he never had and he was protective of him, almost as bad as Elladan. "Ssshhh let your dreams trouble you no more Estel" he said as he laid down on the bed. Estel calmed down after hearing the elven voice, and was soon back to a dreamless sleep. Legolas laid there only a moment or two before his eyes began to glaze over in sleep.
Elrond climbed the stairs holding the small tray of sandwiches. As he approached the door he knocked. Receiving no answer he quietly opened the door. Inside the room was silent, nothing stirred, and the only sound was the soft breathing of its two occupants. Such a sweet picture this would make. Legolas with his hand on Estel's back, and Estel curled up in a ball as if cold. He did not have the heart to wake them. He came to the side of the bed, and laid the tray down on the nightstand, and pulled the covers up on the two. Estel seemed to have been crying, but now a smile was on his face. Elrond leaned over and wiped away the few tears that were left. "I love you ion nin, sweet dreams" he said as he kissed his head. Estel rolled over and mumbled "I love you too Ada." Elrond stood up and went to the door, leaving the two to dream.
I shall see you all the the next chapter!
Until then!
