Author's Note: I'm bored, so lucky readers get a new chapter on this. I should work on my other stuff, but I just don't have any inspiration at the moment. sigh Oh well, I'll see how this chapter goes. I don't really have anything planned for this chapter, so it's kinda what ever comes to mind is put on paper (computer screen). I hate being bored 'cause then I don't feel like doing anything at all. And, this little note is going nowhere, so I'll shut up and get on with the story. Hope you like it.
"It takes three days to wear off?" Legolas asked. "I thought it would take longer."
Adam gave Legolas a shocked look for a second. "You did that to her? How can you be so cruel to such a pretty and kind person?" Adam raged.
"Adam, Adam, my dear," Jessica soothingly began.
"Shut your mouth." Liz finished with a smile as she clamped her hand over Adam's mouth. Adam struggled for a little while, but realized that if he tried too hard they'd come up with some cruel punishment for him. After all it's unwise to incur the wrath of a woman, and he was dealing with not just one woman, but two. The surrounding elves (especially the male elves) looked sympathetically at Adam, but kept silent.
"Well, if it wears off I guess it's not so bad. Besides, Arwen is always so uptight, maybe this'll relax her a bit." Elrond ruefully smiled.
Thuranduil looked at Elrond for a second. "You're okay with this?" He asked shaking his head.
"What are
we going to do about it? What's done is
done, and I can't think of anyway to punish Legolas,
and make him regret his actions." Elrond
sighed and put his head in his hands.
"You're right. Legaolas, what the
hell am I going to do with you?" Thuranduil sighed.
Legplas smirked and bowed, "I thank you for your gracious understanding. If you'll excuse us, we will get something to eat." He led the group to a table a few feet away from the head table. The table was laden with various breakfast foods. The girls and elves piled their plates high, and dug in. Adam looked at the food, sighed, and dejectedly began to pile stuff onto his plate.
Poor Arwen. I wonder if there's anything I could do. Though, I doubt she'd want my help. Not after that picture taking incident. Adam sighed as he slowly ate his food.
"Hey, why don't we all go for a hike this afternoon?" Jessica suggested with bright eyes. "I doubt Arwen is going to show herself this afternoon, so why should do something fun."
"We could even have a picnic lunch." Liz, who had finally woken up, readily agreed.
"Sounds like fun to me." Dunathion smiled. Glorfindel and Suradulinion nodded their heads in agreement.
"Count me out." Legolas declined.
"Oh, what are you going to do? Visit Arwen and comfort her?" Glorfindel smirked.
"Don't be stupid. Having a picnic would require me to carry food. Someone as beautiful as I should not have to do such menial labor." Legolas scoffed.
Glorfindel rolled his eyes. "I should have known."
"Don't worry about it Legolas. Adam is our pack mule. He can carry everything." Liz offered with a smile.
"Wait just a minute." Adam sputtered. "I am not your pack mule!"
"And, what other use are you?" Jessica coldly smiled.
"Need I remind you that I was the one opposed to the idea of coming here? You dragged me here against my will." Adam continued his protests.
"Fine have it your way. You can stay here." Jessica said.
"……….You are being agreeable, why does that scare me?" Adam slowly replied.
"Oh I don't know. Maybe because if you don't come with us, we won't ever take you home." Jessica smiled sweetly. "After all, what you are saying is that you want to stay here." Adam looked a bit sickened at the thought, and began to wonder if Jessica was being serious or not. Adam thought about things for a few minutes and decided that it was better to be safe than sorry; so in the end he agreed to go on the hike.
