CHAPTER 4
Elrond and Erestor walked through the gardens side by side.
" If you had feelings for me, you should have told me mellon nin and not used my son."
Erestor glared at him.
" I did not USE your son. He wanted to go to the feast tonight and neither of us had a lover. I only found out tonight that he was in love with me."
Elrond seemed to think this over for a moment.
" I understand this Erestor, but you know Elladan. If he is not content being only your friend he will not be."
Erestor bit his lip for a moment.
" So, are you upset with me?"
Elrond stopped walking and turned to Erestor. Elrond stepped closer to Erestor and let his lips brush against the Advisor's. Erestor felt as though his heart would thud right through his chest. Then Elrond pulled away and ran his hand through Erestor's hair.
" I feel the same for you Erestor. Celebrian and I are only married to show her parents that Imladris is just as good ad Lothlorien."
Erestor smiled.
" A political marriage."
Elrond nodded.
" Celebrian has been asking that we revoke our vows after her parents leave so she can be with her beloved, but until then...I have our love a secret."
