Chapter 22: Sleepy elfling
Haldir entered the kitchen Cield and Tonus spoke in. Cield was now eating a muffin, holding an empty plate that seemed to have been filled with food moments ago.
"What was the troublesome elf doing?"
"Playing dress up with your Adar's clothes and built a tent with your Adar's good sheets."
Cield spat out the juice he had just began to drink and Tonus simply smiled.
"That is Legolas for you. So much mischief in his small body!"
"I built him a tent in his own room and he's playing dress up with... my clothes"
Tonus and Cield laughed at this as Haldir blushed.
"Haldir, you may want to make sure the elfling is still behaving, or to check if he has no injuries. He has been awfully quiet. I will come."
Tonus and Haldir walked to the baby's room. They did not see the elfling playing, but going up to the tent and peering inside they saw the sweetest sight.
The elfling clutched his teddy, curled in a ball. The elfling shivered but slept peacefully, smiling with his eyes wide open as he slept
Haldir and Tonus smiled at this and Haldir went to get another wool blanket. He came back and gave them to the elfling. Though Haldir was refreshed from his pass nap, he knew his job was to watch over the elfling.
"I will sleep with the baby, just to stay close to him."
Haldir lay down on the floor. Luckily he had placed a carpet beneath the tent just for the elfling's small knees. He picked up one of Legolas' toy bears and used as a pillow. He did not bother lifting up Legolas' head to stick another teddy under his head, fearing he would wake him.
"Good night Haldir, sleep well Legolas."
Tonus put the blanket over both of them and left, smiling.
"Legolas really needs allot of sleep today..."
