AN: Sorry all my chapters have been taking forever to be put up lately but I've been busy working with a local theatre group and I have recently visited California. But hopefully the chapters will come quicker now that I'm back and the play is over.
Chapter 19
Aragorn awoke with the sun streaming in on his face. He squinted as he sat up. His head was pounding so he lay back down. Why did his head hurt? He groaned as he remembered. He had drunk too much, gotten in a fight with Glorfindel, punches had been thrown... He groaned again and rolled over on his bed so his face was in the pillow. He remembered Elrond coming out and breaking them up, Arwen smacking Glorfindel and storming off, Legolas giving him a cool cloth for his eye where Glorfindel had hit him. Aragorn raised a hand to his eye and sure enough there was slight swelling around it.
He had then gone to find Arwen and found her sitting by the big tree they had sat under the other day, crying. She had been upset at what Glorfindel had said.
"You have to know it's not true Aragorn! It's not. I would never..." she said through tears when he found her.
"I know Arwen." He said wrapping his arms around her as she laid her head on his chest.
"I am serious Aragorn," she said sniffling "I want you to know that I didn't do… that… with him."
"Ssshhh, I know. I know you wouldn't." He said stroking her head. After a few minutes when she had quieted down a little, he helped her up to her dormitory where Telepriel took over.
Aragorn sat up in his bed. Three of the beds in the room were empty, Eomer was the only one still in the room. He sat on his bed, dressed, and reading a book. He looked over at Aragorn.
"It's about time you woke up. Come on, we need to get to breakfast so you can eat. After that we have classes. Here's you schedule." He said handing Aragorn a piece of paper.
It said
Aragorn Telcontar's class schedule is as follows:
1.Language Arts taught by Mr. Bilbo Baggins (1 hour)
2. History of Middle-Earth taught by Lady Galadriel (2 hours)
3. Defensive Training (swords, spears, axes, and bows) taught by Lord Cirden (3 hours)
4. Lunch break
5. Survival taught by Gandalf (1 hour)
6.Language taught by Lord Elrond
"Oh I forgot we have classes today." Aragorn said.
"Yes you did. Now get dressed so we can go downstairs, eat and see exactly how much damage you did last night." Eomer said, tossing the book on his end table. Aragorn did, putting on brown leggings and a green tunic.
They walked downstairs to the common room. Arwen, Telepriel and Lothiriel were waiting for them. Eomer walked up to Lothiriel who stood and greeted him. He put his arm around her and they walked out. Telepriel and Arwen stood and met Aragorn.
"Well, well you actually are having the nerve to come out in front of everyone today are you?" Telepriel said raising and eye brow. Aragorn looked at her questioningly. Why was she being rude?
"Ignore her, she's not in a very good mood with you right now." Arwen said.
"Why not?"
"Because," Telepriel said, answering for herself, "you have created a lot of trouble for Arwen. Not only is she now in trouble with her father, and I mean serious trouble, but a lot of the elven community is not going to like her very much. You see, Glorfindel is very popular, and powerful-"
"Wasn't very powerful last night…" Aragorn muttered under his breath. Telepriel ignored him and continued.
"And if he gets angry with Arwen, so will other people. And that is not good for Arwen!" Telepriel said crossing her arms.
"He would have been angry with her anyways since she broke up with him!" Aragorn said in his defense. Telepriel rolled her eyes and walked away.
"Just give her a moment. She is very over protective of me you know." Arwen said.
"Yes, yes I know. All to well." He said warily. Arwen smiled and put her arm around his waist as they headed down to breakfast.
They reached the dining hall and walked in. They passed Glorfindel and his friends, who glared at them and taunted them.
"Hey Arwen come over here and sit on my lap why don't ya'. Pretty little thing like you should come over here with us." one of them said. Arwen felt Aragorn stiffen beside her but she muttered to him to keep walking.
"Aragorn, want a rematch? If you are so good come over here and fight me again. This time no one will interfere." Glorfindel said standing. Aragorn seriously considered taking him up on this offer, but Arwen grabbed his arm and pulled him along to a table where their friends sat.
"What a wuss. I told you rangers couldn't ever finish what they started. Arwen you are going to get bored with your new toy pretty quickly." He yelled after them. Arwen turned around ready to pounce but this time Aragorn grabbed her and pulled her away.
"Oh Aragorn how are we going to do this?" Arwen asked when they finally reached the table and sat down. Telepriel, Boromir, Eomer, Legolas, Lothiriel, Frodo, Merry, Pippin, Sam, and Halabarad sat.
"Do what?" Legolas asked.
"This… us." Arwen said gesturing to her and Aragorn.
"You will figure something out." Elladan said joining the table. He sat down next to his sister and gave her a hug.
"Oh Elladan, how is Ada taking all of this?" Arwen asked her brother.
"Well I think he is still in shock. But Elrohir, well Elrohir isn't to happy about the whole thing. I think he sort of feels like you betrayed him Estel. Plus he is pretty good friends with Glorfindel so that doesn't help." Elladan said. Arwen groaned and put her head in her hands.
"Hey everybody." Faramir said walking up to the table. He had Eowyn with him and Elenya. And they sat down. Eomer looked at Eowyn with Faramir and his brow furrowed. He stood up taking Lothiriel's hand and they went and sat down between Eowyn and Faramir. Arwen giggled at this.
"Good going mate." Aragorn said to Eomer with a smile. Eomer just looked at him and shrugged.
"Anyways, so what class does everybody have first?" Eowyn asked. Aragorn, Arwen, Eomer, Telepriel, Pippin, Merry, and Elladan had Language Arts first. Everyone else had math.
"Good we have a class together." Arwen said to Aragorn.
"So do we." Elladan said winking at Telepriel. She rolled her eyes but blushed nonetheless. Elladen smiled at that and put his arm around her shoulder. Arwen grinned.
"Awww, so cute." She said. Telepriel glared at her while helping herself to some potatoes. Aragorn reached for the last piece of bacon
"Um, are you going to eat that?" Pippin asked.
"Oh Pip! Come on you've already had like 9 pieces." Merry said. Aragorn laughed.
"You can have it Pippin." Aragorn said.
"You sure?" the youngest hobbit said, feeling a little guilty after Merry's comment. Aragorn nodded. Everyone at the table finished their meals and got ready to leave. Then a bell rang.
"Time to go to class." Boromir said and they all walked out of the dining hall.
AN: I know, I know it took forever. Sorry. But um, maybe if I get more reviews I will write faster. In fact I know I will. So press the purple button and review and I will love you and come to your funeral!
