A/N:OK LEXI! Here you go! Hehe. Thanks for reading those of you who aren't reviewing!
"We're almost to the shore you guys." Pippin said, looking back at the other passengers.
"I don't think they're listening." Sam said.
"What in the world is up with them?" Pippin said.
"I have no clue. They all look goofy and why are they staring at each other like that?" Sam said.
"I don't know. I don't get it." Pippin said.
If you were Sam or Pippin, then you might just be a little confused. Neither of them knew what love was because neither of them had ever experienced liking someone. At that point, Sam and Pippin were too involved with their friends and didn't really care about girls that much. Sam was in his gardening, being the person who everyone thought would succeed in gardening. Pippin was into food and playing tricks on people with his cousin Merry. Things were soon to change for these hobbits. They would become older and soon Frodo was to come into his age and no longer be a tween.
Back to the story,
"Wow, this day has turned out so different, you know?" Fianna said.
"Yeah… I wonder what my Uncle Bilbo would think.." Frodo said.
" UNCLE BILBO! OH HE MUST BE MAD WITH WORRY BY NOW!" Frodo exclaimed jumping up and practically tipping the boat over.
"FRODO SIT DOWN!" Merry shouted also getting up which startled Rianna who had been talking to him.
"Oh my." Fianna said and held on tightly to the side of the boat.
"SIT DOWN FRODO!" Merry shouted again.
Frodo sat down and so did Merry.
"Oh my poor uncle.." Frodo said. " What will I do?"
"I'm sure a lot of people are worried about us by now but when we get ashore we will get someone to go across the river and go to our families. It will take a while but it will be quicker than one of us getting over there." Merry said.
"Yeah that's true." Frodo said finally calming down.
"We're almost to shore. I think someone should get out of the boat and help tie the boat to the dock." Sam said.
"I'll do it. " Merry got out of the boat and for the next several minutes Merry was tying up the boat and Pippin and Merry were getting Fianna out of the boat and everyone else in it.
"Okay... Now what?" Pippin said.
"We need to find the nearest doctor and since I have never been to this side of the Shire I don't know where a doctor is," Rianna said.
"I know! How about Doctor Hoblin? "Merry said. He's very close by."
" Well someone needs to sit here with Frodo and Fianna and then the rest need to go get the doctor and see if he has a stretcher for Fianna. " Rianna said.
"I'll sit here with him!" Sam said.
"Ok then. Merry, Pippin and I will then go get the doctor. Now do not move until we get back. Do you understand?" Rianna said.
"Yeah I will make sure that Mr. Frodo and Fianna will not move while you are gone." Sam said standing as straight as he could.
"Alright!" Rianna smiled at him and the others and then ran to catch up with Merry and Pippin.
Sam relaxed and sat down with Fianna and Frodo.
Merry, Pippin, and Rianna had reached the doctor and were now telling him all about what had happened.
"What is your diagnosis doctor?" Rianna asked as they were walking back to Fianna, Sam, and Frodo.
"Well," Dr. Hoblin began," First, Rianna, it sounds like you did a remarkable job. Second, the theory of the flowers is possible but weird. Third, I need to check them over but I believe they are both ok."
"YES!" Merry shouted.
"They then reached the other hobbits.
Sam, who had been sitting down talking with Frodo and Fianna, saw the doctor and Rianna, Pippin and Merry and he quickly stood up.
"At ease Sam." Pippin said smiling.
"Huh? Oh. Ok." Sam sheepishly smiled.
"Ok so let's have a look at you Fianna. I am Dr. Hoblin. Now please give me your description of what happened while I examine your foot."
Fianna told Dr. Hoblin everything she knew while the doctor looked at her foot.
"Well I think that this is very interesting. There hasn't been a known Shammer around here for a while. Your foot seems to be miraculously fine. What I suggest you do is stay off of it for at least a month so the wounds can heal. Now Frodo," He now moved over to Frodo. " You seem to have a lot of cuts and bruises. Why is that?" Dr. Hoblin asked as he examined him.
"Pippin dragged me through the woods because I was too heavy for him." Frodo glared at Pippin.
Pippin looked away and then looked down at the dirt. "I tried to lift you up but it was too hard."
Well then. Frodo tell me everything beginning when you first saw Fianna go down." Dr. Hoblin said.
Frodo did so.
"Well you also seem fine Frodo. There is nothing to worry about. I would say that for the next two weeks at least you should stay home and rest. Of course we need to figure out how to get you back home." Dr. Hoblin said.
" We could take the boat home and then get some horses and a buggy and ride home." Merry suggested.
"Where would you get a buggy and horses?" Rianna asked.
" What about Farmer Maggot?" Sam asked.
" NO WAY! Remember last week?" Frodo exclaimed.
"Oh that's right! Haha." Pippin and Merry laughed hard.
"I don't get it. Sam said in a confused manner.
" Frodo, Pippin and I went to Farmer Maggotss," At this Merry couldn't talk because he laughed so hard.
"We climbed the fence.." Now Pippin was laughing hysterically.
Rianna, Sam, Fianna, and the Doctor were all just staring at the three of them while Frodo just looked mad.
"…And stole some mushrooms!" Merry chimed in.
".. Then Farmer Maggot's hunting dogs came after us and we were running away," Pippin couldn't breathe.
" … Pip and I got over the fence fine and got away but Frodo had a bit of trouble on the fence. He got caught!" Merry said. While laughing
"What did he tell you Frodo? " Pippin said. Wiping the tears from his eyes.
"Nothing." Frodo muttered looking at the ground embarrassed that everyone now knew about it.
"Oh come on Frodo! " Merry said!
" He told me the next time he caught me over there he would whip me." Frodo said. "
"And now Frodo is extremely scared of Farmer Maggot!" Merry said.
"I can't believe you would stoop so low as to steal mushrooms with Pip and Merry Frodo. " Sam exclaimed looking hurt because Farmer Maggot was like a mentor in gardening to Sam. And also he kind of felt left out.
"Yeah well I'm never doing it again I assure you." Frodo said.
"We can put a cape over you so Farmer Maggot doesn't recognize you Frodo." Merry suggested, teasingly.
"Oh yeah that will work…" Frodo muttered.
"Actually, I think that is a very good idea Frodo." Dr. Hoblin said. " You do want to help your friends right? So if you do this, you will help your friends."
"Oh all right.." Frodo said.
