Chapter 2
New - No Doubt
Don't
let it go away
This feeling has got to stay
Don't let it go
away
This feeling has got to stay
And I can't believe I've had
this chance now
Don't let it go away
New, you're so
new
You, you're new
And I never had this taste in the past
New,
you're so new
My normal hesitation is gone
And I really
gravitate to your will
Are you here to fetch me out?
'Cause
I've never had this taste in my mouth
Oh you're not old
And
you're not familiar
Recently discovered and I'm learning about
you
New, you're so new
You, you're new
A few minutes passed and still, the woman didn't reply. "You're not going to talk to me are you?"The only response Orlando got was an ugly look from the stranger which he took as a yes. "Okay, that's fine with me, I've got all day."
Orlando waited for three hours before the mystery woman finally decided to say something. " If I tell you my name will you get off of me?"Her voice was soft and melodic, as if she was singing . . . even though she sounded quite irritated by now.
"Fine."
"I am Alatariel Goldenleaf." what kind of name is that? Sure it's pretty, but who names their child some fancy name like 'Alatariel'?Poor girl!
"Pleasure."
"Where am I ?"
"New York."
" I am sorry, but I have never heard of this place you speak of. Is it near Gondor . . . or maybe Rohan?"
why do all the pretty ones have to be such creepers!
"Are we even talking about the same planet! You know, Earth?"Orlando asked. Now both of them looked incredibly confused.
"YOU MEAN I'M NOT EVEN IN MIDDLE EARTH!" Alatariel shrieked. what happened
"Whoa, whoa, whoa . . . you're from Middle Earth? How did you end up here?"
"I am not sure."Alatariel said in a small voice.how am I supposed to return home, if I don't even know how I got here?
"Well until you are able to go home, you can stay at my place."
"Thank you, Orlando. I really appreciate this."Orlando nodded and stood up pulling Alatariel with him. Orli noticed the half-elf shiver. He quickly draped his coat over her shoulders. At first she looked shocked, but then just smiled and continued to walk along side Orli.
On their way back through the park, the pair talked about their family, friends, and interests. When Orlando told Ali (his new nick-name for the half-elf) that he liked surfing, sky diving, and bungee jumping, all he received was a confused glance from her. So, Orli had to explain every sport he had mentioned. Then Orlando said that he was an actor, and once again he had to explain, what it was, as well as movies, press, paparazzi, D.V.D.,T.V., photo shoots and everything else that had to do with the media. This was very frustrating for the usually patient, young, man. Once they reached the street, it got even more complicated. She didn't know what a car was!
Finally, both of them reached Orlando's apartment. Orli made sure they took the stairs as to avoid even more explaining about an elevator. When Orlando and Ali reached the apartment Orli unlocked the door and opened it. Alatariel stepped inside after Orlando, she was fascinated by how different his home was to her own.
RING . . . RING. . . RING! Alatariel jumped up and ran to where Orlando was standing. "What is that?" she asked, her heart pounding in her chest. " Oh, that's just the phone." Orlando said calmly and walked over to pick it up. "Right" Ali, was blushing. She had made a complete fool of herself. I don't understand why these humans can't just send a letter to their friends, or go and see them personally.
Orlando finished talking to the person on the other line, and hung up. "Are you hungry, Ali?" He said smiling at her.
"Yes, I am."
"Okay, I'll get started on soon. Would you like to have a bath?"
"Yes please."
"Stay right here, love."
With that Orlando walked down a hall way and disappeared behind a door. He emerged again, holding a towel and clothes for Alatariel to wear. Orlando put the pile in the elf's hands and lead her to the bathroom. He helped Ali turn on the water and then left to make dinner.
Not too long after, Ali came out of the washroom wearing Orlando's sweat pants and a white top. Orlando had just finished dinner when Ali came in to join him for dinner. After they had finished eating, Orli introduced Ali to the T.V. When Orli turned it on Ali immediately reached for her waist to grab her knife, but noticing hers was at home. Ali stood there afraid to move. Then Orlando chuckled and told her it was completely safe. Wow that was the second time in one day she had made a fool of herself. Eventually, Orlando convinced Ali to watch a so-called movie on this so-called T.V. The pair watched Ned Kelly. By the end of the movie, both Orli and Ali were crying like babies.
After the movie, Orlando showed Alatariel to her bedroom and said goodnight and gave each other a hug. Sighing, Orlando stripped off his clothes until he was only wearing his boxers and then crept into bed. It was not long until Orlando woke up again. All he could think about was Alatariel. Then, He heard the covers rustling in the other room. She was still awake. Quietly, he got out of bed and crept into Ali's room. There he saw her sitting upright in her bed, tears glistening in the moonlight that shone through the window. Orlando walked over and sat on her bed. He wrapped her in his arms and kissed her forehead. "Let's get some sleep, love." He whispered. They got under the covers and Alatariel rested her head on Orlando's chest as he pulled her to him in a warm embrace. Soon after Ali and Orli had fallen into a peaceful sleep.
A/N: just wanted to let everyone know that I have completely given up on this story due to the fact I am no longer a fan of Orlando Bloom. So let you minds wander to wherever they please. Thanks for reading it and PLZ review. If people actually do like it I might start to write again. I'm working on a Davey Havok fic right now which I will post soon!
