A/N: Woo! Updateage! And yes, I finally succumbed and changed the rating, heh. Anywho, I hope you all enjoy this one, I know it's short but it will have to do for now. Ta, dahlings!

BTW… This is chapter is one of the main reasons I upped the rating, heh. Just thought I'd point that out, so here is some good lovin' for the two characters!

Disclaimer: I own NOTHING! Besides Jennifer. Heh.

The Seduction Continues…

            "Ungh…" I groaned as I clutched my head in agony. Apparently, being the stupid person I was, I didn't think about the consequences of getting drunk. I rolled over slightly and with a shriek I fell off of my bed onto the floor. I sighed and slowly got up, wobbling about as I tried to get my legs to function properly. One word ran through my head at that very moment: Ibuprofen. Lots of it. I half-walked, half-stumbled my way to my bedroom door, throwing it open haphazardly and slowly finding my way to the kitchen. Legolas happened to be sitting at the kitchen table, sipping some kind of juice as he watched me with obvious amusement, taking in my tangled hair and wrinkled clothing. I heard him chuckle and scowled as I rummaged the cupboards for the bottle I knew so well, latching onto it and leaning against the counter.

He grinned, "Good morn, Jennifer dear."

I merely popped four pills into my mouth, mumbling, "Kill me now," as I got myself a glass of water. I finally turned towards him and glared, "What are you so chipper about?"

His smile widened and I had the strangest feeling he knew something that I didn't, "Oh, no reason…" I raised an eyebrow at him and rolled my eyes, sitting down across from him in an empty chair. I sipped my water, silently begging for the pain to dissipate so I could think clearly.

I looked up as Haldir joined our little group, smiling broadly, "Good day, Legolas." My eyes widened when I saw him smirk mischievously and come my way, my heart suddenly dropping into my stomach and landing with a huge THUD, his whole frame bending downwards as he kissed me right on the lips, making a small purring noise as he pulled away, "Good morning, love." I swear my eyes must have looked pretty comical by then as butterflies burst into a samba around my heart in my stomach, my mouth falling open as I watched him sit down right next to me. Okay, what the hell just happened? Legolas made a noise oddly enough sounding like someone in love sighing and I glared at him as I threw a pencil at him, Legolas merely chuckling and catching it easily.

I sighed and let my head fall onto the wood of the table, "Why me?" I felt a hand bring my head up from off the table, almost jumping a foot in the air when I noticed just how close Haldir really was. "Erm…" I stumbled for words, all thoughts flying from my head once I gazed into those fathomless eyes of his. His thumb traced my bottom lip slowly and I made a small noise in the back of my throat, oddly sounding like a whimper.

He grinned and he raised an eyebrow playfully, "Last night was outstanding, love." I meeped and he chuckled, pulling my face closer to his as he nipped my bottom lip playfully, his eyes sparkling with amusement and something else that I didn't not want to identify at that point in time. He grinned and he kissed me again, this time running his tongue along my bottom lip, my teeth clenching together as he tested the seal of my lips.  Legolas suddenly thought it wise to leave the room, his smile never faltering as he calmly walked down the stairs and out of sight, his ears tuned to any conversation he might hear on his way downstairs.

My brows furrowed together and I managed to lightly push him off, "Haldir, what are you talking about?"

Haldir pouted and I almost melted right then into a puddle of goo, "Do you not remember? Well, let me refresh your memory." He grinned and pulled me onto his lap, bringing me flush up against him as he kissed me for all he was worth, his tongue doing naughty things to mine. I couldn't help but groan and wrap my arms around his neck as the memory came flooding back, Haldir's kiss hardening into a passionate duel of tongues as he heard my sound of approval. He met mine with his own growl and I gasped into his mouth when I felt his hands cup my backside and pull me fully against him, my eyes flying open in surprise. He finally broke the kiss and raggedly whispered into my ear, "This is what you do to me, you little minx." I swallowed heavily and looked him in the eyes, biting my lower lip as I felt the familiar blush flare in my cheeks. Haldir chuckled lowly; a sound that made every nerve ending in my body spark and tingle as his hands roamed up and down my back freely, occasionally slipping down onto my posterior which in turn caused goose bumps to break out all over my skin.

Realization of what I was doing crashed into me like a freight train and I scrambled off of his lap, touching my lips, "No, we can't…"

In one fluid motion Haldir was standing again, stalking towards me slowly like a predator, "And why not?"

I backed away as he advanced, whimpering slightly, "Haldir, we just can't…" I looked up at him and my eyes widened when I felt my back hit a wall and I swallowed heavily as he pinned me against the wall with his body, painfully aware of every delicious inch of him.

He nipped my chin as his entire body rubbed against mine, my head feeling dizzy from the sensations he was causing, "Indeed, love. We can." My eyes closed as he kissed me once again, my body arching into his before he broke the kiss, "See? Even your body cannot lie to me… You are attracted to me, yet you will not admit it."

I gasped and broke free of him, "Haldir, stop!" My voice quavered slightly and I held a hand over my heart, watching as he once again stepped closer to me, but not bringing me into his arms. I breathed heavily, "Yes, I want you, Haldir. I do, but…" I looked away, "It just won't work out." I took one last glance of him before fleeing into my bedroom, shutting the door behind me.

~~~~~~

Haldir sighed to himself as he silently brushed his hair up in one of the trees. Why was she holding back? Did she wish more of him? Or was she afraid? Frustrated, he let the brush slip out of his hands and land on the leaf-covered ground below, the brush bouncing slightly before finally resting quietly.  Legolas picked up the brush, running it through his own hair a few times before easily scaling the tree, sitting down next to Haldir, wrapping a friendly arm about his friend's shoulder.

Legolas arched an eyebrow, "Do not cease in pursuing her, old friend. She will give in, if you give her time."

Haldir sighed and looked down at his hands, "I am afraid we may not have much time left."

Legolas looked at Haldir quizzically, his blue eyes filled with curiosity, "And what makes you think so?"

This time it was Haldir's turn to raise an eyebrow, "Everything, Legolas. We are not in our own world… We could easily leave at any time."

Legolas nodded and he grinned suddenly, "Court her while you are here, Haldir. Ask her if she will allow you to do so."

Haldir's head tilted slightly in thought, "That indeed sounds pleasing… I just might do that." He looked over to Legolas and grinned, "Thank you, my friend." Legolas grinned and nudged Haldir slightly before hopping out of the tree, walking away. Haldir grinned, "I shall do that, indeed."
