Woo! Another chapter! I must be on a roll, eh? Heh heh. I'm pretty sure you all are falling over in your seated positions in shock by now and, well, I'd have to join you on that one. LOL. Anywho, I hope you enjoy this upcoming chapter, and stay tuned for more!
But first...
I HAVE to answer a few reviews...
Aviarianna O' Lorien: OMG! *falls over laughing* I can't believe you remember that! Wow that is so bad I totally forgot about that... Ahem. *whistles innocently* Heh. And don't worry chica I will put up a warning at the top of the chapter if it gets bad. LOL. *cheesy grin*
Youko Demon: lol I have to say Haldir, in my mind, rules out over all Elves. I don't know what it is about him really that attracts me to him. He just sees what he wants and goes for it, ya know? Or, in some cases, he sees Jen and goes for it. Lmao. Ahem. Yes.
M. C. S.: Awww thank you! ^_^ I'm glad you like my writing, AND my story! Unfortunately, I can only give updates when my muse decides to grace me with their presence, which as you can see is not very often. Lol. But do keep checking back!
JW7: lol I'm glad you think my story is actually worthy of reading. As for describing Jennifer, I don't really like to go into details of how she looks, mainly because everyone can picture her a different way, ya know? All I have to say is that she is Caucasian. ^_^
Faila Gamgee of Sandy Downs: An Ent, am I? SWEET! *goes to talk to surrounding trees*
Hoshi S: I have to agree with you on that one. There aren't many out there that are very decent, and I'm glad to know that mine isn't one of them. Heh.
laegoleaf: Yes, amazing how one can be strong, but Jennifer is a very stubborn chica and she will not go down with a fight, or at least without trying to resist. Heh heh. We'll see how long it takes, hmm?
Sweet A.K: lol I'm still thinking about upping it to R, but that might come in later chapters since I don't really feel it needs to be brought up another degree just yet. It's more of seeing which path the two characters will go right at this point, on if they're going to get together or just stay friends. But, the road isn't paved just yet so they can bend it to their will. ^_^ We'll just have to watch and find out.
Kage Miko: Oh believe me if it comes for it, Jennifer just might have a few tricks up her sleeve as well. She's not going to act like she is forever, you know. ;) Like I said before, we'll see how long she lasts under Haldir's ministrations and attempts.
OKAY! Now that I have responded, let the good times begin! *evil laughter*
Chapter 10
I stood there in the bathroom of my house, brushing my teeth and staring vacantly at my mirror. What was I thinking about? Absolutely nothing. My mind had gone blissfully numb. I suppose it was still recovering from the shock of Haldir lying next to me on my bed this morning when I woke up. Or maybe it was when I realized he was under the covers and all he had on was a pair of boxers? It also could have been the fact that he was currently sitting on top of me, under the covers, and had acquired a feather from gods know where and was tickling my nose with it while I was sleeping? Hmmm... So many choices. I guess he had decided to make my mind reel, and strangely enough, I could not get the image of him grinning mischievously while perched atop me out of my mind, feather in his hand and all. I distinctly remember, however, when I shrieked and shoved him off of me, sending him tumbling in a mass of limbs and blankets to land with a hard thud on my floor. Yes, I have to admit, that did inflict a small amount of amusement and satisfaction on my part. Needless to say, he merely pouted, smirked victoriously and bowed before leaving my room. Ugh. Elves. I did end up grumbling, falling out of bed myself and throwing on some less revealing clothing and trudging into the bathroom, as well.
So there I was, in the bathroom, filing away the thoughts of my quite eventful and heart-attack-worthy morning, not to mention images of a certain March Warden who looked particularly good in red and green plaid boxers. After that particular thought, my mood seemed to brighten somewhat and I bounced out of the bathroom, turning on the radio to a particularly good station and turning up the volume. I heard shouting downstairs and chose to ignore it, instead meandering my way into the kitchen and grabbing some grub. I heard Legolas chuckled behind me and once again ignored it, deciding to concentrate on my slowly burning toast. I then squealed when I felt a hard poke in my side and jumped about a foot in the air, whirling around angrily and poking him with the edge of my spoon. Why I had a spoon? I don't know. Merely something I grabbed for a weapon. Yeah. It was the closest thing, really!
Legolas merely raised an eyebrow at the spoon and looked me in the eye, "Are you planning on spooning me to death?" He smirked in amusement.
I raised an eyebrow in return and met his gaze boldly, "If the occasion calls for it." I crouched into a defensive position and held the spoon above me, jabbing it towards him in what I thought was a threatening manner. Unfortunately, he did not see it the same way. He merely chuckled and walked away. I pouted, "Yeah, that's right, walk away from my Spoon of Death. Smart Elf!" I grinned and clapped sarcastically before going back to tending my toast.
I was currently searching the cupboards for the little infamous thingy of butter and my eyebrow raised as I discovered what looked to be an entire stronghold of alcohol. With how much was in there, I had no doubt that it would easily satisfy the most drunkard of pirates. I looked around slyly and I raised an eyebrow as an idea popped into my head... Just how does alcohol affect an Elf? I grinned mischievously as tonight I would most definitely find out. I grabbed a few bottles and put them in the freezer, quickly closing the Stronghold of Wonder and already cooking up plans for later tonight.
Yes, I know it's short, buuuuut... I thought it was amusing. Hopefully you all will as well. ^_^ Stay tuned for the next update! It shouldn't take very long, and I promise, you will NOT be disappointed with it!
