Disclaimer: Don't own anything, but my ideas.

Authors note: well it has taken almost two years for me to finish this story. I have had many wonderful reviewers and am very happy that I did this, and that it is done. I have written over thirteen other stories that are after this one, but I will not post them, since this ends itself. I have enjoyed every last moment of writing this! Thanks so much!

This is the chapter that gets mushy, hope you like.

Reviewers:

Haldir's Heart and Soul: I love that song! I just had to through it in there! Its so pretty! Lol, yea, the wolf was sent by Galadriel, it was a bit of a "symbol" that I was playing with (trying to get ideas for an English project that I have to tackle!) Lol! I would love to see someone attempt to touch his lovely ears! I absolutely love the idea! Glad that you seem to be taking it real well! Thanks for the reviews!

How sad that this is the last chapter, it all ends here.

Chapter 32: My Beloved

Naomie stood in the garden watching ducks play in the rain. She glared at a black swan as it bit at a duckling that strayed too far from its family. 'Most certainly a Haldir type.' The princess thought as she glared at it. She threw some more limbas to the ducklings, one "accidentally" hitting the black swan in the head. It glared at her malevolently and hissed. With the hiss from the swan the small white ducklings chirped and swam farther away.

"My heavens, such a grouch." Naomie growled right back at the swan. They glowered at each other for a few moments but then Naomie became board and looked away. Tired of feeding the ducks, the she elf picked up her book and sat down to read.

Hours slipped by and the rain only seemed to get worse. She looked up occasionally to see where the ducklings had gone; they now played in a small out cropping of the pound, as far from the swan as they possibly could be.

"The gate is over there, that's where we will cross; you sneak back through there and wait for her to turn back around." Elrohir explained the plan while his brother simply nodded.

"What if she leaves to greet you? Then I shall be standing there like a fool." Haldir growled.

"In that case, as the humans put it 'your screwed buddy.'" Elladan said. This got a harsh hit in the stomach delivered by Elrohir's elbow.

"That will not happen and if it does just simply step on a branch or something to get her attention." Elrohir suggested.

"Got it?"

"Got it." Haldir nodded.

"Good..." the two brothers said.

With the plan in motion Haldir went to were he was instructed to wait. The rain poured on hard and Haldir tried to organize himself the best he could.

Naomie sat reading when a sound reached her ear. It was a horn. No normal horn, but a March Wardens horn. Springing to her feet, the princess leaped to the gate to see who it was.

Haldir watched as the princess sprang to her feet. His head was spinning with worry. What if this doesn't work? Was the biggest question in his mind.

Naomie peered out threw the sheets of rain. Her heart was in her throat and threatened to leap clean out of her. It soon fell to the bowls of her stomach when she saw who blew the horn. It was Elladan laughing with his brother and returning from there journey. With a soft sigh Naomie took a step back.

Haldir had managed to get out of the bushes and now stood leaning against a willow tree with his arms folded across his chest. As Naomie turned towards him, his heart pounded. When she was all the way turned and there eyes met, Naomie's eyes widened.

"Told you I had a red cloak." Haldir said with a soft smile. He began to walk towards the princess as she ran towards him. They met in a warm embrace. Picking her up and spinning her in the air so that the water that had collected on her black dress flew off in a spiral around the two. (Think that scene from Forest Gump, when he meets jenny in the reflecting pool at the rally.)

Haldir was delighted to see his ring on a small chain around her neck as they pulled away. A crack of lightning and a roar of thunder was all that was audible for a moment.

"I am sorry. I do not know what else to say. I love you and even if you do not share the same feeling, I need you to know that I love you, and will love your for all eternity. And that I am sorry." Haldir said over the rain.

Naomie was silent for a moment but before she could answer Haldir bent down and kissed her. He was surprised and overjoyed when the she elf returned the kiss. Pulling away he could not tell if it was tears or rain that streamed down Naomie's face. She hugged him once more and slowly laid her cheek against his. The warmth of her breath as she uttered her next words sent a joyful shiver down the March Wardens spine.

"That will suffice. I have and will love you forever more. I was foolish to believe that my heart cold live without you." She whispered.

Pulling away there eyes met. Haldir allowed his hands to slip to the small of Naomie's back as he bent in for another, more passionate kiss. A bark and two voices of laughter brought them from the kiss.

"Are you two going to continue warming each other out in the rain or join my family in a warm library?" lord Elrond asked from the gate.

The lord stood in-between his sons with Areanil passing in front of them. Naomie looked up at the March Warden and smiled. With one quick fluid motion, Haldir had scooped Naomie in his arms and carried her towards the gate.

After a day of rest and a night of relaxation, Haldir mounted Windswept. Naomie had done the same with her black stallion, Swiftfoot. Kicking off Haldir and Naomie road into the rising sun, heading towards Lorien.
