Together Forever

Ch. 6
A day and a morning had passed, the afternoon sun shone down brightly in a baby blue sky upon two elves that were searching the woods for parsley for their companions' stewed rabbit and potato soup.
"Ha! I've found some!"
"Great, then we can head back, they better like this soup, we've only been searching for this herb for at least an hour! The soup would have been done and eaten by now without the herb!"
"Oh, is little Ellena tired?" Legolas teased.
"Yes, I am!"
The smile that was on Legolas' face fell. "Well, you shouldn't stay up all night; you should get some rest."
"I would but I stay up and keep a look out for anything while the rest of you sleep."
"You put too many problems on your shoulders; let someone else carry the burden with you."
"Who would want to carry it?" Ellena replied despondently.
"I'll help you carry the burden."
"You will?" Hope sprang into Ellena's eyes before it was quickly doused with reality. "My friends and I aren't supposed to be here, so I guess that I've been trying to protect them and in the end, only defeated myself."
"You haven't been defeated yet, and I won't let you be."
Ellena looked towards the blonde elf in contemplation for a moment before speaking again, "Elizabeth."
"What?" The Mirkwood prince queried, eyes filled with confusion.
"My name is Elizabeth." She smiled at him then walked away, missing the large grin that crept across Legolas' face. He now knew her real name.
LS: Yes, real short but I don't care. I was listening to "As Long As You Love Me" by the Backstreet Boys when I thought of this chapter. REVIEW PLEASE!!
