Woo, last chapter! Yeh, I know I said I would update quicker, but the past couple of weeks have just been…crazy. So much stuff going on all at once…argh!

So, here's the final chapter of Beauties… It's very short, but I think it's needed, just to tie up the loose ends.

Quixotic High – Maybe…

DaydreamingTurtle – Quite possibly they are. Not sure though. Yup, this is indeed the last chapter, and I hope its ok. I wanna see that bio! Thanks for reviewing.

Tiara Shin – Hello! You're not online at the moment. Pout. You're not the only one with a sweet tooth, trust me! Singing! Winces as windows break.

Yeah Mum, I'll sort it!

Oops…

Anyways, hope you and your gorgeous Elf are ok. Me and mine are just cool! Teehee. Gets comfy on Leggy's lap. Speak soon sweety. Thanks for reviewing.

Kalayna – Almost-ending1 I lied that. Thanks for reviewing.

Elerrina – Soz, there is only the one chapter left, and here it is. At last! Of course they're back together. You know how soppy I am when it comes to luuurve! Thanks for reviewing.

Raame325 – Cute is good! Thanks for reviewing.

Kiba's Mate – Have you changed your name? Cos I don't recognise you. (No offence) Thanks for reviewing.

Orlando's Hot Chick – The reviewer with THE NAME! Lol, hiya. There wouldn't be anything to put in a sequel though, really would there? They get married have a load of kids, maybe have a tiny adventure (lose a kid!) and the sail over the Sea with Gimli. Too cliché.

Says she who wrote THIS story.

Thanks for reviewing.

Chapter 9: My little Beauty.

As she watched the ship sail away, Anaróre felt her heart pang. That was the ship that bore her parents, away into the West. And it would be years and years before she saw them again.

That ship had also taken the Ringbearers. There was now only a small group left on the pier. Three Hobbits, herself, and Legolas, stood back a small way, watching the farewells with tears in his eyes. He held the reins of their horses; the leather straps wound round his wrist.

She finally turned and walked back to him. He let go of the reins and held her in his arms, kissing the top of her head. The three remaining Hobbits watched the exchange with small smiles. They had all been present at the wedding of the Prince of Mirkwood to Lady Anaróre, and were happy for both of them.

They turned, and slowly started heading home.

"Let's go home Ana," Legolas whispered into her ear, cradling her against him.

She nodded, wiping the tears away. "Good idea. Perhaps we could stop in Mirkwood on the way, and you'll give me that tour you promised me last time we were there but never actually did for me."

"We were busy," he murmured, nuzzling her neck fondly. "Remember?"

She grinned and pulled away. "Let's just go. This place…it feels sad, yet happy. And I don't like it."

"It's the gateway to Valinor dearest. It is full of sadness and happiness." He kissed her once more. "Let's go."

Silim had decided to go with his wife over to Valinor in the end. He said he couldn't bear to be apart from Brithil, and so had left with them. Lothlórien was empty now anyway, and there was nothing left for him on Middle-Earth. Only Anaróre and he knew she was in the capable hands of Legolas. He would look after her. Brithil had been right all along. They were perfect for each other.

As he watched the shore fade away, and Anaróre walk over to her husband, Silim felt a pang of fatherly love for his only daughter. He would miss her dearly, but Valinor waited. They would be happy there.

Brithil came and slipped her arm through his. "She'll be alright," she whispered. "I know she will."

"Aye," he nodded, smiling down at her. "Aye, she will. My little Beauty."

Yeuck, cliché OR WHAT!

Well, that's it guys. I told you it was short.

Thank you dearly to everyone who stuck with this story, (I KNOW it was cliché! Its that word again...) Apologies to those of you who hated it, (and I know you exist).

So, it's Namárie for now, but beware…I will be back!

And btw, my friend keeps going on and on and on at me to write a SLASH. Gulp. If I did, should I put it on I could really do with your opinion on this guys. You wouldn't have to read it of course, but…

Anyways, tell me what you think in a review.

Thanks again, and see you all very soon.
