The night was slowly drawing itself out, the girls and the elves sat patiently waiting for it get darker. The elves said it would be wiser for them to travel in the dark around the shire, as its inhabitants no nothing of the outside world and anything knew would really disturb their way of life. Once the night came upon them they set out, it was only a small place the Shire and they made it to Bag end in no time. Thought they had to hide in the shadows some of the time as they walked pasted the out skirts of Hobbiton and saw a Hobbit hobble home from of a night of self infliction. He got no sympathy from Beth, though she had to hold Becki back from trying to help the poor bugger.
They eventually rounded a corner and much to the girls delight came to the gate of a rather magnificent little door embedded into the side of a massive hill. Elrohir knocked the door, soon a little fat man smoking a pipe came to the door. This was Mr Bilbo Baggins, his face lit up with joy as he saw Elladan and Elrohir.
"My dear Lads!"
He exclaimed joyfully
"How good it is to see you both, come in, come in, But what brings you to Bag end?"
The elves where standing in front of the girls, Bilbo was looking up so he never saw the extra pair of legs behind them.
"We have brought some friends of ours to you, they need help in getting home, you where the person closest who we could think of whom could help them."
Stated Elladan, they stepped aside to show him their friends.
"Are they elves?"
Questioned Bilbo seeing Beth's fairly pointed ear, the elves turned to look at Beth, now noticing her in a new light.
"No, we are not"
Said Beth
"Well they both have beauty that could rival the elves"
Said Bilbo
"Thank you"
They both said, Elladan stared at Beth's little bit of a tip on both of her ears, Beth blushed looking away.
"Well come in, down stand out there all night some one might see you."
Elladan and Elrohir stepped aside to allow the women to enter first, as they came into the light Bilbo got a much better look at them. Elladan all the time never taking his eyes off of Beth. The women where dressed un usually, never had he seen women dress as men, but it showed of their womanly figures. He certainly didn't mind.
"Please take a seat"
Much to the delight of the girls, they were pleased that they didn't have to crouch through the green door as the ceilings in the hobbit-hole where very high indeed. The hall way that they stepped into seemed to go on forever as it lead of into different hallways and doors. There where magnificent carved beams that held the structure of the home together. The light in the home was softened by the glow of the candles on the chandeliers.
The two girls took a love seat close to the fire, Beth watched as the light of the fire danced on Becki's porcelain skin.
"How can I help you?"
Asked Bilbo
"We just need something to eat, and perhaps stay the night. We just need time to recuperate"
Said Beth
"Yes, yes that is fine. And what about you two lads? Are you going to stay as well?"
"W would not like to intrude"
Said Elladan
"I would rather stay the night, and like to see the girls off"
Said Elrohir
"Well that's settled then!"
Exclaimed Bilbo
"I shall have my cook prepare a three course meal!"
After their meal, which was more like a feast; Elladan, Elrohir, Beth and Becki where all stuffed and sat by the fire trying to make themselves comfortable.
"Who's for supper?"
Asked Bilbo
They all groaned, Bilbo laughed.
"Well if you would all like to get settled in for the night I will show you all to your rooms"
Bilbo lead them down a series of hall ways and eventually stopped in the centre of the hallway, and stood in between two doors.
"To the right is your room ladies and to the left the gentle mans, if you please excuse me I will go and take my leave for some much needed sleep. If you hear the door at midnight that will be Frodo back drunk. Oh and the wash room is at the end of the hall on the right and the privy on the left. Good night"
The elves bowed their heads, the girls gave Bilbo delightful hugs, which he was most pleased with.
"Thank you"
They both said, they all said their good nights and went into their respectful rooms.
As they walked in there where; two single beds, a vanity under the window, and two sets of Chester draws. The room was a pale green colour, with patch work quilts, plush cushions on the beds and vanity chair, their where pictures of what they presumed to be Bilbo's relatives.
As they once again stripped of their clothes the girls slept soundly.
