Good bye my friends
While watching ROTK this morning, I decided to write this little fanfic from Frodo's point of view just before he boards the ship to the Grey Havens. Enjoy. No slash.
Gandalf has just announced that I am to leave with Bilbo to the grey Havens. Sam looks at me with sad eyes. 'What does he mean?'
I reply. 'We set out to save the Shire, Sam. And it has been saved, but not for me.'
A single tear falls down his face. 'You don't mean that. You can't leave.' I hand him a red leather book. 'The last pages are for you, Sam.' I turn to Merry and embrace him tightly, reminiscing about all the times I have spent with this hobbit. I will miss him.
'I let go and say good bye. I turn to Pippin and embrace him, silently crying to myself and reminiscing. I will miss him.
I then turn around and face Sam. This will be the last time I lay eyes on such an admirable hobbit. I embrace him tightly and cry into his shoulder. I let go and I kiss his forehead. He starts weeping. I then walk over to Gandalf and take his hand. Together we board the ship into the west.
One last thing before I finally board, I turn to my friends and smile. I will miss them terribly. 'I suppose I will never see them again.' I say to myself.
'I hope they find happiness.' And together with Gandalf, Elrond, Galadriel and Bilbo, we go off into the west.
