CHAPTER 6

LEGOLAS

I stared at Amy kicking her legs under the water as she playfully moved backwards in the water. She was swimming right in front of me in only her undergarments. I was quite shocked. I NEVER would have imagined Amy as the type of person who would do such a thing.

"What are you staring at? The dress got heavy, all clothes get heavy when they're wet, smarts." I shook my head and came out of my trance. I nodded in agreement and threw my tunic onto the grass.

Slowly, I swam over to her and looked into her eyes. Her piercing gaze met mine with an indescribable emotion. She moved closer and ran her fingers lightly over my chest and abdominal muscles, then put her lips to mine. I slowly leaned into the kiss and she returned it back with fiery passion. She warped her hands around my shoulders and ran them up and down my back as I put my hands on the side of her head and pulled her closer to my lips.

Suddenly, she put her fingers over my lips and stopped. She closed her eyes and whispered, "listen." I strained my ears and off in the distance, I heard two people approaching.

Amy pointed to a bridge, then submerged herself and swam to it. I followed and came up under the small bridge. Just as I came out of the water I heard footsteps directly above us, then voices. Amy silently mouthed, "Aragorn and Arwen," and I immediately understood.

"Rench I lu I erui govannem? (Do you remember when we first met?)," Arwen softly asked Aragorn.

"Nauthannim I ned ol reniannen. (I thought I had strayed into a dream.)" Aragorn replied.

"Renech I beth I pennen? (Do you remember what I told you?)" She asked.

Amy looked up at the bottom of the stone bridge above us and sighed. I could tell by the look in her eyes she knew exactly what they were saying even though she spoke absolutely none of our tongue.

"You said you would bind yourself to me, forsaking the immortal life of your people," Aragorn answered. Even though she was soaked, I could still see the tears that lightly ran down her eyes. I, too, found it quite touching, but not as much as she did.

"And to that I hold," Arwen whispered, "I would rather share one lifetime with you then face all the ages of this world alone." She paused and then said, "I choose a mortal life." Amy was trying so hard to contain her tears and her sobs.

"You cannot give me this," Aragorn started before Arwen interrupted him.

"It is mine to give to whom I will, like my heart."

It was at that moment that Amy lost control and broke into an uncontrollable sob. No less then 10 seconds later Aragorn was leaning over the edge of the bridge glaring at us. Sniffling, Amy let out an uneasy smile. Then SPLASH! Aragorn fell in, followed by a jump from Arwen.

"Personally," she whispered, "this isn't a bad idea." Aragorn shook his head and joined us. "You could all use some fun before you part on your journey."

AMY

I woke early in the morning and scurried to get my bags packed. I ran the checklist through my head. I had my knives, I had spare clothes, I had food, I had everything that I thought I would need. Yet I couldn't shake this feeling that I was forgetting something; something important. I shoved that thought in the back of my mind as I heard a knock on the door.

"It's open." I said as I paced around the room. The door slowly opened and a blond head peered through the door.

"Are you ready? I'm sure they'll be waiting." Legolas said as his eyes came to rest on the sleeping child in the bed. "What are you going to do about him? Are you positive leaving him here is the best thing?" I nodded my head quickly. "Yes to both. I'm ready, and I'm sure it's for the best. I left a note on the table, I didn't want to wake him up." Legolas' eyes then strayed off Tommy and onto me.

"Aren't you going to be a little cold? You're not an elf you know, you can still feel the chill."

"I know, I know! Can't you tell I'm trying to get my bags packed so I can leave within the next minute!" I snapped. It was early, and I was cranky.

"Sorry, I'm just…kinda…yeah." I strayed off into though as I threw my hands up in the air in anger. I couldn't find my sweatshirt anywhere. I know I had it when I landed, I just couldn't find it under the mess of dirty clothes. Finally, I found it, grabbed it and threw it over my head. I put my pack on my bag, kissed Tommy on the forehead and went out the door. Hands linked, Legolas and I walked slowly towards the gates. He put his arm around my shoulder and pulled me closer to ease my nerves.

"Oh, Amy, I almost forgot! I have something for you!" He came to a stop, pulled his bag off his back and pulled out a package. I slowly unfolded it to find a beautiful set of daggers with the elven writings encrusted in the handles that read 'Child of the Dead'. They each looked exactly like my scar. And to top it all off, a beautiful belt to match.

"Oh, I love them! Thank you so much!" I squealed as I jumped up and gave him a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

"You're welcome. They're called Sai daggers. I figured you might find them useful on our journey." He mumbled as he blushed a little.

"I wish I had something to give you." I frowned. I felt kind of bad, I mean, he got me a really nice pair of daggers and I didn't even think to give him anything.

Legolas looked me straight in the eyes and gently said, "That's quite alright, I require nothing in return."

"But I feel bad about it."

"Don't. It comes straight from my heart, and my heart doesn't need gifts, it already has you."

My mouth dropped. That was the most romantic thing I ever heard come out of anybody's mouth. Not even a chick flick can beat that.

"Then my gift to you is my company. That is a pleasure to have in itself." I nodded with satisfaction. That was good.

"Then your company it is. Now, we must continue on our way. I believe the company waits for us."

We walked silently hand in hand for a few minutes until we reached the gates where everyone was waiting for us. Just as we approached I heard a voice calling my from behind.

"AMY! Don't go!" Tommy yelled as he came huffing and puffing behind us.

"Aww buddy, I wish I could stay, but I have to go. I'll see you real soon when I get back. But you have to promise to stay here with Elrond and Arwen." I hugged him for a really long time, and then he looked me in the eyes and said, "Please come back, and don't forget me."

I started to tear and choked on my words as I whispered "I promise." I plopped a big kiss on his forehead and then told him I loved him and that I'd be back soon again. It was the hardest thing I had ever done in my life, but I did what I had to. That morning, before the sun came up, I left my beloved brother Tommy standing, crying, at the gates of Rivendel next to Arwen as she waved goodbye to Aragorn. Then I watched as she grabbed his hand and wiped a tear from his eye and whispered something to him in elvish.

Legolas slowly turned to me and said "She tells him not to mourn for someone who is not yet lost."
