Disc:LOTR not mine.
A/N: Sorry everyone! My comp. sucks and I can't upload from it so I'm having a friend do it (Give ur love to Tricia). I'm workign on a play but the director's wife just had a baby so I get about a week free to write. I'll try to have it all finished by this weekend.
A soft warmth welcomed him along with the soft rays of morning. A light breeze blew the curtains gracefully into the room and brought in the joyful songs of the birds.
Merry stretched and yawned in the chair, wiped his eyes clean of sleep and smiled as he stood. He started though when he saw that Holly's bed was noe empty. He ran from the room and looked desperately around the hall as if she would be standing there, smiling warmly at him. The Hobbit stood in a terrified stuppor from his fear the something was yet again horriblt wrong. Then he heard the sound of pleasant laughter drifting through the air.
"I'm glad to see that you'll be alright. I only heard of your ordeal a little while ago from Aragorn." Frodo explained as he took Holly's right hand in both of his and smiled. She smiled as well, looking wholly better after many hours of well deserved rest. Being brought back to life was much more of a hassle then it ever was for the people in movies or books.
"Thank you. I think that a few days of relaxation is something that we all need, and deserve."
"Indeed......Merry!" The pale hobbit's face lighted with a smile as he looked past the human to his beloved cousin who was standing at the door. Holly quickly turned but was quickly knocked over onto the soft bed as Merry tackled her into a tight embrace. The girl let out a smothered cough and then laughed.
"Merry! Good morning sleepy-head." She teased as he let her go and sat beside her with her hands clutched in his.
"Well, there has been quite a lot of change since we parted." Frodo observed as he eyed the ring on Holly's finger and the necklace around Merry's neck with a sly smile. Holly blushed while Merry gawked at her.
"We......uh, ahem! We've become pretty close." Holly mumbled. Though her attempt to be descreet was ruined as her Hobbit love pulled her into a passionate kiss. When she was finally releases Holly blushed madly and merry finally gave his attention to a shocked Frodo.

Breakfast that morning was filled with smiles and laughter. Everyone felt like a great weight had been lifted from their shoulders and that they could finally relax. The hobbits were still trying to get over the shock of their strange adventure being over, and the girls wondered what this meant for them. When would their adventure end......if it ever would?
A/N: Crap, i know. Sorry, it's been an odd week. hoping for snow wednesday so that I can finish all of this on thursday if we get a snowday...though i fear it's not likely. Oh well. C y'all later!
