Chapter 6- Night 3 part 1
Legolas peered out of the tiny Hobbit door. He sighed, and took his head back in.
"What's the madder? Your not your usual conceited elfyness lately." asked Gimli.
Legolas just sighed. "You know whats strange? There are no windows"
Gimli just grunted, and kept smoking his pipe. There was a light knock on the door. A note slipped under the door. Legolas leaned down to pick it up. It was a note written in Elvish.
"Its from Alexandra...She thinks I'm mad at her, or upset with her. She says she's thinking of going back to Mirkwood, because she doesn't belong here with my friends. " Legolas wore a concerned look. "I don't want her to go"
"so tell her that" said Gimli.
"I'll write a note back" Announced Legolas.
"Bad idea, laddie, tell her to her face." Gimli told him.
After thinking for a moment, Legolas left the room. Legolas knocked lightly on Alexandra's door. Eowyn opened.
"Hello Legolas, I suppose you'll want to talk to Alexandra?"
"Could I please?" Legolas asked giving her a desperate look.
Eowyn crossed her arms with an amused smile.
"She's not here"
Legolas' face fell.
"Did she leave? How could you let her leave? Eowyn...!"
Eowyn interrupted laughing. "She's in the garden, my gosh Legolas!"
Legolas gave her a nervous smile, and turned away from the room.
In the Garden, Alexandra was sitting on a small bench, looking rather odd. She held a pink tulip and was looking at the petals intently.
Legolas just looked at her for a while. He admired the way her silky hair fell right near her elbows.
Finely, Alexandra took notice to the tall elf staring at her.
"Oh my, I didn't see you there"
"I didn't want to disturb, your, erm thinking?" he struggled for words.
"I know it wasn't very mature of me, to, you know, give you that note. It's like we were little again. Like when I broke your favorite model horse, And I gave a you a note in elvish to apologize. I told my mother to give it to your brother, to give it to you." Alexandra sighed.
"Simpler times" Legolas said looking into the distance. "I'm not mad at you. At all. I don't even know if there was any inkling even hinting to that"
Alexandra shrugged. "I Should not have come here. It's not my place, and I know this."
"Alex. How can I stress this to you? Its important that you're here with me. I spent that long time without you. And this is probably a time where I need you more than ever. If that makes sense..." Legolas seemed to be trying to convince himself of his own point.
"In any case, please stay" He finished.
Alexandra rose. "Well I might as well get ready for the ceremony tonight. At least I have unique singing voice i can grace upon the halflings."
Legolas smiled at her.
