Not Just Brothers
I have changed Estel's age to ten because it makes more since. So from chapter one if you could just tell yourself that his age is ten that would
be nice. I will change it as soon as I can. Now here is chapter two.
Chapter two
The Deal
"But Ada I want to go," Estel whined as he put anther tunic in Elrohir's pack. "I told you Estel, you are far too young to go on this hunting trip," said Elrond ruffling Estel's curls.
"But Ada," Whined Estel again. "Estel, I said no," said Elrond looking at his youngest son, he knew that it was going to be a long two weeks.
Estel left the room and a few minutes later Elrond heard a slam, he knew that Estel was going to be pouting for a while, but he also knew that the twins wanted to leave after breakfast. Then he got an idea- let the twins talk to him, they always could get Estel to listen to them when he wouldn't listen to him.
"Good morning Ada," said Elrohir when Elrond walked into the Great Halls.
"Good morning Elrohir, where is your brother?" asked Elrond as he sat down.
"He is still up stairs packing, I told him he should have asked you and Estel to help him, I mean look at me I'm all packed and ready to go, and you and Estel...where is Estel?" asked Elrohir suddenly noticing his brother's absence.
"He's up in his room, he is pouting because he can't go with you," said Elrond filling a plate for himself and Estel.
"Oh, you are going to have a long two weeks aren't you." said Elrohir giving in to a giggle.
"It is not funny Elrohir, I have a hard enough time keeping him busy for two days when your gone what am I going to do for two weeks," Said Elrond as he took a bite of his breakfast.
"Do you want Elladan and me to talk to him? We have a little something that might make him behave while we are gone," said Elrohir looking over at his father.
"Now what would this little something be?" asked Elrond looking keenly at the younger twin.
"Oh I think you know," said Elrohir.
"Elrohir..." Elrond began.
"Ada, please I know he is ten, but he has always wanted one. We will help him with it. If we say we will bring it back with us, it might help him behave." Said Elrohir knowing that his father could not say no to this.
"Alright, if you help him you can bring one back," said Elrond handing Elrohir a plate of food to take to Estel.
"Thank you Ada," said Elrohir as he headed for the stairs.
As Elrohir came close to Estel's room he was not watching were he was going and nearly ran into Elladan.
"I'm sorry Elladan, I was thinking about something else," said Elrohir.
"That's alright Elrohir, where are you going in such a hurry?" asked Elladan smiling at his twin.
"To Estel's room, I have a little deal for him," said Elrohir.
"Is it about that little thing we were talking about?" asked Elladan.
"Yes, Ada said that we could bring one back if we help him with it," said Elrohir.
"I'll come with you to tell him," said Elladan.
They came to Estel's door and turned the elven carved handle and let the door fall open. There was Estel, sitting on his bed with his arms crossed over his chest; he popped to an up right position.
"Estel, Elladan and I have a deal for you," said Elrohir coming up and sitting on the bed.
"What's that Ro," Estel asked moving over so Elladan could sit down too.
"Ok here's the deal, you be a good boy while we are gone and don't pout when we leave, then when we come back we'll go and get you a puppy," said Elrohir.
"Really Ro," asked Estel smiling from ear to ear.
"Yes, now do we have a deal?" asked Elrohir.
"We have a deal," said Estel his smile not leaving his face.
"Good, now why don't you eat your breakfast and then come down the the courtyard and see us off," said Elladan as he ruffled the boys curly head.
"Ok Elladan, I'll be right there," said Estel as he started to eat his breakfast.
"Ok, we'll be waiting for you," said Elrohir as he and Elladan left the room.
As soon as the door shut Estel sighed, and stopped smiling. This was going to be a long two weeks.
I promise more of just Elladan and Elrohir in the next chapter.
