angel13: Thanks. Honestly I haven't decided if he will or not yet.

Diana is riding next to Aragorn while Legolas is scouting ahead with a couple of guards. Eowyn is walking ahead of Diana and Aragorn next to the horse Gimli's riding as he tells her about the Dwarves.

"It's true, you don't see many Dwarf women. And in fact, they are so alike in voice and appearance that they're often mistaken for Dwarf men."

Eowyn looks back at Aragorn and he motions to his chin. "It's the beards."

She laughs and turns back to Gimli as he continues his story.

Diana leans closer to Aragorn. "If Dwarf women look so much like the men. How do we know if Gimli is a man or woman?"

Aragorn glances up at Gimli and then back to Diana. "Good question." They both break into laughter. Gimli's horse gets startled and dumps him on the ground causing them to laugh even harder.

"I haven't seen my niece smile for a long time." Theoden moves his horse closer to Aragorn's.

Diana spots Legolas riding at the front and excuses herself so they can talk. She nudges Gelmir into a trot and quickly moves to the front. Legolas smiles over at her. "How are you doing?"

"I'm fine. Better than Gimli," she grins. "He fell off his horse."

"I would have liked to see that," he laughs.

They ride along in a comfortable silence for the next few minutes.

"Diana?"

She looks over at him but his eyes remain focused ahead.

"Who is Orlando?"

She narrows her eyes at him in anger before turning Gelmir around and kicking him into a full gallop toward the rear of the column. Legolas watches her in confusion before taking off after her. He calls for her to stop several times and finally grabs Gelmir's reins.

Diana glares at him with fire in her eyes. "You embarrassed me bad enough bringing that up in front of the Fellowship. Why do you have to embarrass me further?"

Legolas cups her cheek in his hand. "That wasn't my intention. I only want to know who he is to you."

Diana smiles softly, her anger disappearing. "He is no one. I don't even know him."

He removes his hand from her cheek. "Then why did you call out to him in your dream?" he asks suspiciously.

"Legolas, it was just a dream." Diana begins to blush as she continues. "Orlando is an actor, a type of storyteller that acts out a story as they tell it."

Legolas looks at her with a pained expression. "Do you wish to know him?"

Diana shakes her head. "No. Orlando became well known for a character he portrayed in a story. I did wish to know that person."

"Oh," he says and looks down.

Diana smiles and puts her hand on his arm. "Legolas, the character he portrayed was you."

He quickly looks up at her and then grins before leaning over and kissing her softly.

"We better go or we'll be left behind," he says before placing a soft kiss on her lips.

Diana looks over her shoulder to find the last of the people quite a bit ahead of them. She grins at Legolas. "Race ya." She kicks Gelmir and takes off with Legolas right behind her.
