Chapter 15
"Emily... wake up.." I heard a foggy voice say.
"Five more minutes mom.." I said rolling over. "OH MY GOSH THAT HURTS LIKE HELL!" I screamed sitting straight up. "Ow owch... make it stop..." I said holding my hand over my side.
"Emily, you're going to be fine..." I heard a male voice say. Turning around, I saw an old man in a pointy hat. Then I noticed I was in a bed with white sheets, wearing a white night gown. That means someone changed me.. Bet it was those damn pervy hobbits.. But wait.. Where was I?
"Uh.. Mister... Where am I, and how do you know my name?" I asked the man as he smiled. Bet he's a stoner too..
"You're in Rivendell, Miss Emily. I am Gandalf, and I learned your name from the group you were traveling with." He said pulling out a pipe and lighting it. Told you... "You were brought here after you were injured."
"Injured? I was stabbed by a big, pointy sword! That's more than an injury if you ask me. That's like a traumatic event.." I said shaking my head. 'When Cross Dressers Go Bad' next on the Discovery Channel..
"Your companions much wish to see you, shall I alert them that you have awakened?"
"Uh, sure why not." I said as the old stoner got up and walked to the door. Opening it, I saw the guys with worried looks on their face. Legolas looked the most worried. "Hey boys, what's happening?" I said trying to lighten the mood.
"Emily! You're okay!!" The four hobbits said pouncing on my bed.
"Yeah I'm fine..." I laughed as they hugged me.
"Good to see you well, Lady Emily." Aragorn said smiling. Legolas wouldn't even look at me.
"Woodland boy, you gone mute or something?" I said smiling at Legolas.
"No My Lady... I just feel great sorrow. It is my fault you were injured." He said hanging his head low. Aw! He looked so sad! I just wanted to jump up and give him a hug...
"Did you tell the cross dressing men with big pointy swords of doom to attack me?" I asked as he shook his head. "Then it's not your fault! Case closed, pay the lawyer on your way out.."
"I should have been there to protect you." Legolas said looking at me for the first time. Guess I have to be serious for a minute.
"Can I talk with Legolas alone for a moment?" I asked as the other men nodded, walking out of the room and shutting the door. "Legolas, this isn't your fault okay?"
"I believe it is.." He said sitting in a chair near the bed. I closed my eyes and shook my head.
"I do not blame you for what happened. You didn't know they were coming, so there is no way you could have protected me." I said looking at him. "Will you please just forgive yourself? What happened, happened. You can't go back and change the past. You just have to suck it up and hope for a good future." Wow.. I think this is the most serious I've ever been in my life. SCARY! Call CNN, this is a headline.
"You never fail to amaze me, Miss Emily." Legolas said smiling. FINALLY!
"How so?" I said laughing.
"No one has ever been able to make me really feel. When I'm around you, I feel almost human." He said with a small laugh.
"Uh.. Is that a compliment or a putdown?" I asked looking at him with a raised eye brow.
"Compliment. That is one of the few things I envy of men. They are allowed to show their emotions. Elves on the other hand, we keep everything inside." Wow, Woodland boy is deep..
"You should see Dr. Phil, he'll make you cry like a little girl.." I said giggling.
"Miss Emily, can I tell you something?" Legolas said standing up and walking to my bedside.
"Sure." I said calmly. But inside, you know I'm freaking out like a rich lady at a jewelry store..
"I..." Legolas started to say, before being interrupted by a banging on the door.
"Can we come back in now?" Pippin said opening the door a bit.
"I will talk with you later, Miss Emily." Legolas said bowing and walking out, as Pippin and the rest of the hobbits came back in. Third time Pippy... this calls for revenge..
"Emily... wake up.." I heard a foggy voice say.
"Five more minutes mom.." I said rolling over. "OH MY GOSH THAT HURTS LIKE HELL!" I screamed sitting straight up. "Ow owch... make it stop..." I said holding my hand over my side.
