I DO NOT OWN LOTR J.R. TOLKIEN DOES!
Sorry for not posting recently I will not give you some lame excuse im just lazy.
Anyways enjoy!
(This has got to be the worst thing ever! Do you wanna know what it is? Waiting that's what! The movies doesn't tell you how long there is between these little trip and things in the movie. It has been 9 years since that crack-pot old fool said he would be back! Do you know how boring hobbit life is? There is absolutely nothing to do! Ugh! I wonder what Brooke, Kira, and Jessie are up to? Sam has been worried about Autumn and Kelani too. Samantha better not get wasted tonight! I can't stand her she even more annoying then when she has a sugar high!) I was just about to start ranting about the use of alcohol in the shire when I was brought out of my thoughts by Pippin.
"What are you doing?" He asked standing over me with the same curious look he always had. I always found it utterly adorable. I blushed red at that thought and quickly sat up from the grass.
"Nothing just thinking is all." I said.
"About what?" He questioned sitting next to me.
"Gandalf, my old friends, the overuse of alcohol in the shire." I said honestly.
"Well I wouldn't worry about Gandalf he comes and goes whenever. As for the consumption of alcohol I quite like our use of it. I'm sorry you are missing your friends it's been nine years right?" He said.
"The only reason you support alcohol is because you drink too much yourself. That and you've made it your personal goal to get me to drink. Yes nine years this exact day actually." I stated starting to feel homesick. We had told Sam, Merry, and Pippin that we weren't from this world three years after Gandalf left. They had accepted it and moved on knowing how hard it must be to have no way to get home.
"How would you like to go swimming? He asked seeing my face begin to fall.
"Sounds like fun! Should we get the others?" I asked eager to get my mind off things. "No! I mean they can't come. I already asked. Samantha and Merry went to steal some potatoes, Sam is gardening, and Frodo has disappeared again." Pippin stated quickly.
"Oh, ok." I said. It was a nice sunny day out. I was glad Pippin had brought up swimming because it was starting to get hot. I followed him as we made our way to the river. It was about a thirty minute walk from the tree over Bag-End to the river. We made our way in silence but it was a comfortable silence, knowing him for nine years. When we arrived we both just stood at the end of the dock looking at the water. That's when the idea formed.
"OH MY GOODNESS! What is that?" I yelled pointing across the river.
"Huh? What?" Pippin asked looking across the river. I smiled and pushed him as hard as I could off the dock. My plan worked perfectly…until he grabbed my waist and dragged me in with him. Now Im pretty good at swimming but when someone pulls you under unsuspected you tend to freak out. That's how I ended up with a lung full of water because apparently Pippin can hold his breath much longer than I can. When we finally surfaced I could barely breathe as I pulled myself onto the bank I started to heave the water from my lungs until my throat was raw. It really frickin' hurt! The whole time Pippin stood over me with a look of concern.
"Are you ok? I'm so sorry!" He said as soon as I stopped retching. I tried to reply but couldn't from the pain. All that came out was a strangled noise but he understood that i indeed was not ok. He extended his hand to help me up and I gladly took it. As I stood a wave of dizziness hit me and I almost fell back down. Pippin had wrapped his arm around me and held me up before I could. I gave him a small smile as we slowly made our way back to Bag-End. It took us and hour and a half to get to back on account of my slow pace and the wet clothes weighing us down. It was around 3:00 when we got back to Bilbo's house as we entered Merry, Samantha, Sam, and Frodo all looked up to see us. It must have been quite a sight because I looked like I was going to throw up and Pippin looked ashamed as our clothes continued to drip water everywhere. Samantha was the first to react by laughing only making both of us feel even worse. Luckily we were saved by Sam he asked Samantha to go help him get food for dinner she reluctantly left still laughing as she walked out. As soon as the door was closed Merry rushed over to help Pippin carry me to the table while Frodo made some tea. When Frodo came over with the tea we both accepted and slowly took sips.
"So what happened?" Frodo asked looking over at Pippin.
"Well you see…" he started.
"It was my fault." I answered my voice raspy from my raw throat.
"Shh! You shouldn't be talking now and it wasn't completely your fault." Pippin scolded me. I just hung my head and looked at my tea.
"We had gone down to the river to go swimming. We were both standing on the dock and all of a sudden Jordan yelled about something across the river. So I looked over there and suddenly she pushed me into the lake. I grabbed her and dragged her in with me as I fell. I guess I stayed under to long for her because when we surfaced she swam to shore and started throwing up. She sat there like that for about a half hour. I tried to see if she was ok but she couldn't respond so we slowly made our way back." He said retelling our story.
"Wow" was all Merry had to say to us. I noticed he looked over to Pippin and gave him a pointed look making him bow his head even more.
"You guys need to be more careful. It could've been worse than that." Frodo told us. I nodded my head only to wince.
"You need to get some rest." Frodo said looking at me. Pippin immediately shot up to help me to my room but Merry shook his head causing him to sit down. Merry then stood and gently helped me up and to my room.
"You know he didn't mean for that to happen, right?" He asked as we made it to my room.
"I know and it was my fault. Pippin isn't the brightest but he is sweet and I know he wouldn't do that on purpose." I said half asleep.
"You know he really cares about you." Merry said as he helped me into bed.
"Well he cares about everyone. He is a good friend." I said falling even further into sleep. Merry just shook his head and left. As he closed the door I fell asleep.
