A.N.- Hello there fellow readers! Sorry I haven't updated, me and Jackie
have been writing more on the story. I thought it would be better to write
a bunch then type a bunch, then write a bunch, then type a bunch. Well..
Anyways, here ya go!
After that day, Eomer and I had spent a lot of time with one another. He would come in the morning with breakfast and would sit with my until lunch. Then he would leave for a while and come back for dinner.
This went on for about three weeks. I stayed in bed most of the time and he would stay and talk to me, telling me about his home and his sister who now lived in Gondor. About the war of the ring and how he became king and countless other stories. I was very thankful for his company. He was extremely kind, gentle, handsome, and funny as hell when he wanted to be. He could also be quite witty as well.
I had been in bed now for about a month and I wanted to leave. "When can I get out of bed?" I asked Eomer.
"Actually, you may get our today." He said. "Lord Elrond is going to take off your casts. There will also be a dinner tonight. We are expecting guests from Mirkwood."
"How interesting!" I said.
Eomer looked at me. "Will you do me the honor of going with me?"
"Of course. I would love to."I said.
"Alright. Dinner is at eight so, I'll come about 7:30." Eomer said.
"See you then." I said as he left.
It was already about noon when Elrond came to take off my casts. "They healed very nicely." He said. "You will have a maid come in later to help you dress for this evening."
"But I don't have anything to wear." I said.
He smiled a little as I said this. "Lord Eomer had numerous dresses made for you about a week ago. You will have plenty to choose from." He said. Then he got up to leave, but I grabbed his sleeve before he could. He looked down at me, meeting my eyes.
"Thank you. For everything that you've done for me. I really appreciated it." I said
"Your welcome." He said. Then left.
It was about six when I decided to start getting ready. I took a bath , and started to brush out my hair when there was a knock on the door. "Come in." I said. A women then came in with a bundle of dresses in her arms and lied them out on my bed carefully.
"Which of these dresses would you like to wear, my lady."
"Please," I said. "Don't call me my Lady... Jackie works just fine." She smiled at me as I said this.
"As you wish... Jackie."
"Ok, lets get to work." I said.
"Let's pick our your dress first." She said
"Alright." I said. I went through five dresses until I found the one I wanted. It was a dark pink at the top and faded into an almost white at the bottom. The neck was a v cut. The sleeves were long and almost flowed down to the floor. It had little diamond detailing on the sleeves and the borrom of the dress. "This one." I said. I picked up the dress and handed it to the maid and slowly took off my clothes. Then with her help, I put on the dress. It fit like a glove.
We proceeded to do my hair. She put my hair up in a high pony tail. Then she used a brush to curl my hair. When she finished, she put small braids in the part of the pony tail that she hadn't curled. I looked in the mirror and my hair looked great. I had never seen it like this, (well, at least not for as long as I could remember). After my hair was completely done, the maid asked, "Do you need anything else? Eomer should be here in about two minutes."
"Thank-you, but that should be all. Well, actually. Maybe you could tell me about this dinner or why we are having it with Mirkwood?"
"Jackie. I honestly do not know much about it except people from Rivendale and Mirkwood get together every once-in-awhile because Mirkwood stood by Rivendale during the war and it keeps them up-to-date on the things going on around here and us up-to-date on things going on in Mirkwood."
I paused for a second to take in what she said. "Thanks." Just as I finished thanking her and stood up, Eomer knocked on the door and came in. Eomer was dressed in breeches and a tunic.
"You look lovely, Jackie." Eomer said.
"Thanks. You look very nice too." I said, as we just stood there. We stood there for about one minute just staring at each other, examining each other.
"Well, we better get going or we'll be late."
"Okay." I said as we walked out of the room.
