Evening Stroll

Legolas

I led my lovely mage companion to the room in which I was staying. Regrettably I left her at the door while I went in search of my bow and arrows. When I came back outside she stood at the side of my door waiting just as beautiful as ever.

"So where shall we go to practice?"she asked softly. The first thought that came to my mind was practice in the big bed in my room but I refused to give voice to such a thought in presence of one so fair.

"How about a clearing in the woods nearby," I suggested. There used to be many clearing in the woods near Rivendell but not all of them were safe anymore we used to visit many of them frequently when Laurelin was but a child. We visited them when things were bothering us that we needed to get away from. We never ever visited the woods without each other.

"I wonder if anything has changed since we last visited, it's been a long time in fact too long," she responded.

"Time is both long and short to a forest, if it takes a mind to change it will, never rush a forest," I answered back I was thinking of the Ents this day.

Amanda

I looked absolutely dressed to kill I had donned the only black dress I possessed, I hardly wore it since it's home was Rivendell. I had my surprise all ready for but now I was working on my look a raggedy mage would never scare Lord Elrond Master of Rivendell. So I set to brushing the tangles out of my normally straight dark brown hair. I needed to look intimidating to pull off my prank which was my best yet. Satisfied with my look I grabbed all that I would need and left just as quickly as I'd arrived.

Laurelin

As we began walking Legolas offered me his arm which I gladly took, it was scene I usually only dared live in my most secret fantasies and dreams. Walking through the woods with my beloved Elf as if we were in love. It was in this moment that I could imagine that he loved me, that we could be together without riticule or consequences. That I could enjoy him and he me but that would never happen to me. I guess dreaming was better than absolutely nothing and knowing him was a pleasure onto itself. I counted myself lucky to have the opportunity to know him as I did.
