University Log:

The end of high school and seven weeks off

Chapter 2.2 (aka, day 2, week 2)

The six friends arrived in Lorien and at Haldir's 'pad' late the next night and the first thing Haldir did was introduce them to his brother Rumil, though Orophin was already in bed.

"So this is them?" Rumil said a rather wary look on his face.

"Ummm…yeah. This is Lindir and he's Legolas and the other two are the twins Elladan and Elrohir and the one dressed all in black is Melpomaen, Mel for short."

"That thing's an elf."

"Yeah."

"Could've fooled me."

"Rumil!"

"And you're the one who has the mad king as a father?" he said turning to Legolas, "The one in the newspaper."

"Yup."

"Okay then." Rumil said before walking off, but not before coughing, "weirdoes" under his breath.

"Ignore him, he's in a near constant state of grumpiness at all times."

"Well I must say," Legolas looked thoughtful for a minute, "That's defiantly not cricket."

"No it's not, I'll add it to the book" Lindir said taking a notebook and pen out of his bag.

"Okay…anyway, we can un –pack everything else tomorrow but until then I'll tell you where your sleeping. We have three bedrooms and a spare so two are sleeping in the lounge which I have decided will be Mel and Elladan…because they're like total opposites. Lindir's gona sleep on the spare bed that pulls out from mine and Legolas and Elrohir can have the spare room, though there's only one bed."

"Oh great." Legolas and Elrohir said sarcastically.

"1…2…3"

"HA! Rock beats scissors I get the bed!" Legolas laughed

"How about best two out of three?" Tried Elrohir

"Erm…let me see…NO!"

"Darn."

"Mel! Will you stop fidgeting!"

"I can't I've got your feet in my face!"

"At least my toenails aren't painted black!"

"What difference does that make Elladan!"

"To me? A big difference!"

"Fine, you get your feet out of my face and I'll get my feet out of yours!"

"Fine!"

Elladan: I'm going to kill Haldir for this!

"Legolas?"

"Yeah"

"Did you see that?"

"Yeah"

"It's not what I think it is…is it?"

"It may be."

The two shrieked and Elrohir went for the light as Legolas jumped out of bed and the both came face to face with a HUGE moth."

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"If there's on thing I hate more than anything it's moths!"

"Elrohir do something!"

"Me? You're the one who use to live in a realm covered in giant spiders!"

"Yeah, but there weren't any moths!"

"Oh my word, it's huge!"

"AHHH!" They screamed again as it flew by.

"We can't just leave it in here!"

"Well what are we gonna do then!"

"…Elrohir…get the pot"

Elrohir gasped, "The pot."

"Yes…the pot."

Elrohir went into his bag and retrieved a shiny sequin covered pot from it. The two were equally afraid of bugs and during one of Legolas' visits to Rivendell –in which the prince always shared a room with his best friend – Elrond had decided to gift the two with a pot to catch said bugs in and release the out the window.

"I think the pot needs to be less shiny." Elrohir commented

"Elrohir! This is no time to be questioning the greatness of the pot! Now catch it!"

"Me!"

"Yes you!"

"But…"

"Ahhh!" The moth flew past Legolas and he ran out the door. Elrohir sighed

"I guess I am catching it."

All things considered Elrohir did quite well. He managed to catch the giant moth along with another one and a few strange looking green things while putting up with a squeaky prince and himself running away a couple of times too.

They were both now up in bed again and could hear a buzzing noise.

"Ummm…Legolas?"

"Yeah?"

"You don't fancy sharing that bed do you?"

"Please."
