Chapter 46
Lori and Legolas
Lori finally fell asleep in Legolas's arms (which went numb about five minutes after Lori fell asleep). Legolas knew he had some things to do at six, but he didn't want to disturb Lori. Someone is going to have to wake her up, he thought. He then thought back to the last time he woke Lori up.
Flashback"Lori, it is time to get up," Legolas said softly into Lori's ear.
" NO!!" shouted Lori into her pillow.
" You can not deny the day until night," said Legolas.
" Watch me!" said Lori.
" You mean to tell me that you are going to sleep all day?"
" Why not I have before?"
" It is not right," said Legolas.
" I'll show you what's not right!" shouted Lori as she amazingly got up out of bed and tackled Legolas into the stone floor.
" OWWWW!" said Legolas.
Lori just got back up and went to bed, while she said,
" Never wake a girl from her sleep, especially when they didn't get enough last night."
End FlashbackYes, I do not think I will disturb her. He thought sliding his arm from under Lori. He got out of bed and got dressed and went to the Great Hall to meet his family for breakfast. He entered the Great Hall and saw no one in there but his father.
" Father. Where is every one?"
" I sent them away so we could talk." Said the King.
" What would you like to talk about?" asked Legolas as he sat down next to his father.
" Lori," he said.
" Father… don't try to talk me out of marrying her."
" It has been two years," said the king.
Legolas stood up and said,
" Only because Lori and Whit won't get married until they are there, together."
" Legolas you know I'm not going to be here forever," said the king standing up.
" Oh, please! You're an elf! You live forever!"
" Not necessarily."
" You can only die in battle or a broken heart," said Legolas.
" I have to go to Rivendell," the king blurted out.
" What is the occasion?"
" The Ring," he said.
Legolas sat down, as did the king.
" I thought that was a myth," said Legolas.
" It is not my son."
" What do we do?" asked Legolas.
" We go to Rivendell, not mister king, and we figure out what to do with the Ring," said Lori who appeared in the doorway, dressed in one of her dresses.
" I didn't know you were up," said Legolas.
" Let me put it this way," said Lori sitting down, " you can't get dressed quietly."
" I'm sorry," said Legolas kissing her on the forehead.
" How do you know about the Ring?" asked the king.
" I'm from the future. I know a lot more than you on this subject," said Lori.
" How much more?" asked the king.
" That's for me to know and for you to eventually find out," said Lori, " So when do we leave?"
" Tonight," said the king.
" Better go pack then," said Lori as she and Legolas went to pack.
When they were in the room Legolas was trying to talk Lori out of going on the trip.
" Legolas, I'm going anywhere you go," said Lori.
" Lori, I just don't want you to get hurt," pleaded Legolas.
" I've been up against the nasty spiders, I think I can take on a creature that is in need of a dental plan," said Lori putting one pair of pants and one tunic in her saddle bag, " I think that's enough."
" It's a long trip to Rivendell," said Legolas.
" Yeah well it's even longer after that," mumbled Lori where Legolas couldn't hear her.
" Are you sure?" asked Legolas for the last time.
" I'm absolutely positive," said Lori kissing Legolas.
" We better get our horses ready then," said Legolas, " There will be a few others accompanying us on the trip."
Later that night they set out on the tip. They rode hard for that night and then they slowed down. That night they made camp and then the next morning they were off. This happened for a week and a half until they reached Rivendell. They rode in galloping. Legolas slid off of his horse and looked around.
" Have you never been to Rivendell?" asked Lori getting off her horse.
" It has changed so much since," he said.
One of the stable hands came and took the horses and told us to go to the place where everyone else was going. There were many chairs that looked very uncomfortable in a half circle. At the head was a chair and then two chairs on each side of the chair.
Already there were some other elves, a hobbit, Gandalf, and Aragorn. There was also another human next to Aragorn. He had the symbol of Gondor, so Legolas figured he was from Gondor.
" Good job Capitan Obvious," said Lori.
" Do you know his name?"
" It's Boromir," said Lori.
Then Lord Elrond came out and the meeting began.
