Aragorn sat at the table with his head wrapped tightly between his hands. He tried to keep away the tears that oozed from his eyes. Arwen bent down and put her hand on his face. She lightly pulled his head away from his hands and gave him a comforting look. He tried to give her a reassuring smile back, but instead he plunged his head toward the table, away from her hand. He brushed away the tears that once again were covering his face. He did not want Arwen to see him like this.
"Everything will be all right." Came a soothing voice from behind where he sat
He knew that voice, and he knew she was generally right in what ever she said, but he just could not bring him self to believe that this time everything would be all right. He could sense something was going to happen. How could they make him choose between his own wife and his child or his beloved friends?
He turned around to see Arwen standing there. "Arwen, I can sense if I leave you I will regret it forever, but if I do not I will also regret leaving my friends alone to die."
"Estel, you do not have to stay with me. I can look after my self and our dearly loved child. I will make sure the nurse comes round to see me everyday. Please go. I cannot stand to see you like this." Whispered Arwen
"I cannot leave you, something is telling me you are not going to be all right."
"You cannot stay here Estel. You cannot leave your friends in a time of battle. You must go to them and help them. They can't do it on their own. I really want you to go, I will be fine. Many people are going to be here to help me."
"I want to go an help them, as they have helped me many of times. I will not leave them to die in battle. They have fought many battles to save my kinsmen and me. But I really do not wish to leave you. I know you will be in capable hands but I do not feel safe separating us at this time. I do not want to miss my child being born."
With that Aragorn stood up and walked out of the dining area. Arwen followed closely behind. The hall was silent as they both walked toward the bedroom. The atmosphere seemed somewhat tense, and nobody could bear a word on their lips.
As Aragorn strode up the stairs, he left Arwen behind, who struggled to keep up. When she eventually reached the top she could not see Aragorn anywhere. She went into the bedroom, but he was not there. She was now beginning to get worried. She had not seemed him like this in a long time and the thought of it scared her.
"Aragorn. Aragorn." Arwen called out from the top of the stairs
Aragorn heard his name being faintly shouted. He rushed over to where the noise was coming from and found Arwen. He had a rather anxious expression upon his face.
"What is it Arwen." Replied a deep voice. Which straight away she knew was Aragorn.
"Where did you go? I was getting worried about you." Arwen said sensitively
"I went down the back stairs and went to sit in the garden. I wanted to be alone for some time. I am sorry but I need to sort my head out and try and think straight."
"Ok well I was just getting rather worried about you. I have not seen you this upset in a long time. Well you go to the garden and I will be in our bedroom ok. Come up when you are ready."
Aragorn gently lent over and kissed her on the lips, and then walked down the back stairs, out of Arwen's sight.
