CHAPTER 13

Elladan nearly fell out of his chair.

" Erestor?"

Elrond nodded. Elladan felt sick to his stomach. He slowly turned to look at Erestor, who was smiling at his Ada. Elladan felt tears come to his eyes and bolted from the library without an another word. Elrond looked at Elrohir confused.

" Will Elladan be alright?"

Elrohir nodded.

" I will check on him Ada."

XXXXXXXXXX

**two hours later**

Elladan had not stopped crying since he had left the library. He would lose Erestor now. Erestor would not stay with him now that his Ada finally love him back. Elladan felt as though his entire being had been ripped from the core. Elladan heard a knock at his door. He didn't move. It was probably just some servant his Ada sent with food because he may have missed a meal. He heard the door open, then shut and just as Elladan was about to protest about someone entering his rooms unannounced, he felt a hand slowly rubbing his back. He smiled through his tears.

" Erestor..."

Erestor gently kissed the top of Elladan's head.

" Let me hold you meleth nin."

Elladan rose from his laying position and nearly collapsed into Erestor's arms. Erestor could feel Elladan's body shake as he cried.

" Erestor nin. Saes. Do not leave me."

Erestor felt a pain in his heart. He could not, would not leave Elladan. But then there was Elrond. The elf he had loved for centuries. Erestor held Elladan tighter as he wondered to himself: who would he choose?
