Over the next few days, Legolas's fever had lessened to where it was almost gone. Aragorn absolutely refused to leave Legolas's side, guilty as he was for the situation itself. Legolas had yet to wake, and he wanted to be there when he finally did.
So, it just so happened that when Legolas did wake, Aragorn was sitting there next to him, alone. Everyone else had trusted that if Legolas needed anything, Aragorn would be there to help out his friend. As it was, Aragorn was just about to fall asleep where he sat when Legolas shifted slightly. Aragorn jumped at the unexpected movement, but looked down at Legolas. The Elf's body was tense, his face scrunched up in agony, but he didn't utter a single word, let alone make a sound, he just lay there, motionless, waiting for the pain to lessen.
"Legolas? Open your eyes, mellon nin(my friend)!" Legolas tried, he really did, but it was like his eyelids were glued shut. So, instead, he reached for Aragorn's hand, and Aragorn immediately took it. He squeezed it lightly, and Legolas, no matter how weak he was, squeezed back. Aragorn smiled despite himself.
"Oh, Legolas, I'm so sorry for arguing with you. I really am!" Legolas just squeezed his hand back again and smiled, hoping his friend would take this as a sign that he didn't blame him for anything. But darkness crept up on Legolas once again, and soon, it surrounded him, and soon, he was back to sleep.
Aragorn was disappointed and a little worried that his friend hadn't said anything, but other than that, he was happy that his friend had been awake, even for just a moment. His heart felt a little lighter as he sank back down into the chair behind him, and he dozed off, still holding his friend's hand.

Wood Elf luver: I hope that little scene made up for not updating yesterday. Again, sorry about that, but I won't do it again. I'm really hoping that I can finish this story before Christmas break ends Tuesday, but, who can know? I might just make something else unexpected happen that makes the story go on for more time. You can never know with an author like me. Please review, and feel free to criticize if you don't like where the story's going so far. I really think that's more helpful than just telling me the story is great. I already know that! LOL! Ok, read, review, and TTYL!
