Eldarion looked at the baby in his mother's arms with disgust. "Ewww….she's ugly. I thought babies were cute. She looks like someone sat on her. Did I look like that when I was born?"
Everyone exploded with laughter. "Yes, my love, you did. All babies look like that for a while. Soon, you'll have to fight for your title as the cutest." said the queen.
"If you say so mother. But I still can't believe I looked like that."
Aragorn chuckled. "There are a lot of things you don't believe in. Like staying out of trouble. Now, what do you think we should call her?"
Eldarion examined the baby princess thoughtfully. "How about dung?"
"What? Eldarion…this is a baby, not something with a bad stench." though the king disapproved of Eldarion's idea, he found himself grinning. "And I don't think your sister would appreciate being called that. How about Arralyn?"
"My king, that is a beautiful name. I highly approve." said Faramir.
Eldarion quietly slipped away while no one was looking. Fuming with jealousy, he whispered as he walked down the stairs. "What's wrong with me? Why do they need another baby around here? Hmmph."
Back in the room, Aragorn sighed. "Please Faramir. Don't call upon me so formally. Do I have to pass a law to get my friends to call me what I want?" he said teasingly. "Arwen, my love, what do you think?"
"I too think that is a wonderful name. So I suppose she is now Princess Arralyn."
Legolas commented. "Uhh….sorry to ruin your moment, my friends, but have you noticed that Eldarion's gone? The last time he was out of sight things didn't go too well…"
"Oh no." Aragorn muttered. "If it weren't for you and your sharp eyes, Legolas, we probably never would have noticed. Now where is that child? He can't stay out of trouble long. We better find him. And you are not going to be doing it." He added when the elf got up to leave. "I have put you through too much today already. You, are going to stay right here and relax. I will go find him."
"Whatever you say, Aragorn." Legolas said with a bow. "But if you haven't found him by sunset, come for me." he joked.
"I think, that I'm capable of finding my own son." Aragorn teased back.
"Oh, and don't be too hard on him when you do find him. Being the only child that I am, I would be furious too, if all my attention was stolen away…" said the elf, as he picked up the newborn Arralyn. The baby yawned, opened her eyes a moment to stare at Legolas, then fell asleep in his arms. "Blue eyes." he said. "Piercing blue eyes. Funny thing, this one could end up looking like me. In a way. If only she had blonde hair….."
