The elf paced the room waiting for something. Anything. He really wanted to be outside again. How long had it been since he had felt the fresh air or seen the stars? The room they locked him in was just a sitting room with no balcony. Crossing to the window Legolas opened it and sat down on the ledge. Aragorn would be furious if he caught him on the ledge. One leg hung outside while the other was bent helping to keep his balance. It felt good to see the sky and smell the trees. He stayed that way and before long feel asleep sitting in the window on one of the top floors. That was where Aragorn found his husband a couple of hours later.
"What are you doing? Get down from there this instant."
Legolas yawned and turned to look at Aragorn. "Glad your home honey. How was your trip? Things were fine here. Thanks for asking. It's not like you saved me from the dungeons to lock me in a room with nothing to eat or drink or any word of how you were."
"I'm sorry." Aragorn walked over and scooped Legolas up into his arms. "I'm sorry. Are you okay? Would you like something to eat drink? Guard! Please bring Legolas something from the kitchens." Aragorn carried Legolas down the hall to their bedroom.
"I can walk on my own."
"I know."
"Please put me down."
"I'd rather not if it's all the same to you."
"It's not. I want to be allowed to do something on my own."
"Okay." Aragorn reluctantly set his feet on the floor but still kept his arm around the elf's waist. Like it or not he was still a little unsteady.
"Thank you."
They entered the room and Legolas climbed up onto the bed. "It feels so good to lie down on something soft. I missed you."
"I missed you to but now I've returned to you and all is going to be well. You'll see I'll never let anyone ever hurt you again. You mean the world to me."
"Tell me about your trip."
"Okay." Aragorn started with leaving the castle and told his everything that happened while he was gone. "I knew the boy was in the woods so I called to him and then my men and I returned with all haste to the castle. We came at once to the dungeons and that is where I found you."
"That's good news, now we don't have to worry about Faramir."
"What happened to you darling?"
"Not much, torture, rape and attempted murder…"
"I'm going to kill him when I get my hands on that little."
"Yes, but in the meantime perhaps you can remind me why I love you so much." Legolas looked suggestively at Aragorn who took the hint and shut the door with an order not to be disturbed.
The End.
I don't think I'm going to do any more with this one but since it took me so long I wanted to wrap this story up.
