Disclaimer- I own nothing... ok now I know the bio of this said Legolas is to feel left out but I want them all to feel left out at one point to show that threes a crowd, don't worry, contrary to popular belief my insane ramblings do have a point......

Arwen let out a small shriek of surprise; just a moment after another sound was heard.

"My hair!" a gruff voice called from down the hall. Legolas and Arwen ran out into the hallway and faced each other.

"Blonde!" Arwen accused looking at the front of Legolas hair which was slowly turning blonde. "Give me back my hair!"

"Take it I don't want it!" Legolas said as he gazed longingly at Arwen's rouge strands of brown hair.

"What is going on here?!" Aragorn hissed as he ran out of his bedroom. "You're going to wake every elf in middle earth! Legolas....your blonde" He finished uncertainly.

"Only a bit!" Legolas protested "Oh Valar what is going on?!"

"Arwen what's wrong?" Elladan asked running down the hall obviously hearing their argument.

"This!" Arwen said grasping a lock of her brown hair.

"It's only a little, the rest of your head is still blonde" Aragorn said trying to be helpful.

"Not anymore!" Arwen whined "My golden blonde hair has now dropped down to a dirty blonde and its fast turning black!"

"Fathers coming!" Elrohir said speeding down the hall as well.

"Oh no" Elladan muttered as Thandruil and Elrond made their way towards them.

"What is going on here?" Lord Elrond asked. "Arwen what have you done to your hair!?"

"It wasn't my doing! It was like this when I woke this morning!"

"Hmm" Elrond said raising his eyebrows in thought.

"The maturing process!" Thandruil said suddenly "Dear Legolas seems to have it to"

"Ah yes" Elrohir said reminiscing "I remember that, your not in for a very fun week Arwen"

"The maturing process?" Arwen questioned confused as Legolas nodded understandingly.

"You've never explained this to her?" Thandruil asked amused.

"Uh well you see Arwen....when an elves hair start to change color it indicates that they are maturing......umm err you are becoming a woman now and a very beautiful one at that....your body is going through a series of changes......." Elrond said uncomfortably, for once he was at a loss for words. "Would you care to explain this to Legolas?" Elrond asked, desperate for a way to take the pressure off him.

"Oh I've already explained this all to Legolas, feel free to carry on" Thandruil said obviously enjoying this though he is to dignified to ever say anything.

"When will my hair turn back to its normal color?" Arwen asked earnestly.

"I'm sorry Arwen it won't" Elrond said reluctantly as Arwen's eyes filled with rage.

"I cannot believe this!" and with that she ran into her room and shut the door.

"Irritability is also another sign of Elvin puberty" Elrond commented wincing.

"Arwen?" Legolas called as he started to fallow her into her room but was stopped by his father.

"Legolas you cannot just walk into her room" Thandruil said astonished at the young prince's behavior. Legolas sighed to himself as he knocked on her door politely.

"Leave me be!" Arwen shouted from within her chambers.

"You have to respect her wishes" Thandruil said as Legolas reluctantly started to fallow him but stopped suddenly.

"I think I will retire to my chambers as well" Legolas said slyly.

"Do you think I am to fall for that old trick?" Thandruil asked bemused. At that Legolas did something he had never done to his father but had seen his brothers do many times when they were going through the maturing process, he glared at him. Not just a fleeting glance but a stony, icy glare that caused his father to go momentarily speechless. Legolas hated showing such disrespect to his father but it was the only way he could think of to make it seem like he truly wanted to be alone.

"Fine!" His father spat with a certain degree of dignity and turned on his heel to leave. Soon it was only Legolas and Aragorn left standing out in the hall. Legolas creaked open Arwen's door, training his ears to hear even the slightest peep from the direction his father went.

"You know that is actually not a bad color on you" Aragorn said thoughtfully as Arwen glared at him in disgust.

"Get out! Both of you!" Arwen screamed looking at Legolas hair with pure hatred.

"Arwen" Legolas said darting his eyes nervously. The thought of being caught bluntly disobeying his father terrified him.

"Legolas" She said hostile

"Aragorn" Aragorn said randomly in a pathetic attempt at humor, Legolas and Arwen rolled their eyes at him.

"Arwen it's not that bad" Legolas continued "Think of it as a new and exciting change."

"I do not welcome change" Arwen spat.

"Arwen" Legolas said in a soothing but commanding tone of voice. "Your beautiful" He put his hands on Arwen's shoulders and stared directly into her eyes "Trust me" Arwen took a deep breath and smiled meekly as her and Legolas walked out of the room together, Aragorn trailing behind with a look of sour jealously upon his face.
