"Hey, Keona, wait! "Yelled a voice. It was the voice of Navarion. We are friends since I arrived in Rivendell. He always understood me, my feelings, almost everything of me. "Navarion, what's up? " I asked. "It has been an exhausting day, is everything okay with you? Earlier you seemed a little bit tensed. "He said to me with a compassionate view. "Oh no, everything is okay, it is just... Well it was the first day I rode in a battle against orcs and yeah… I think I am just a little bit exhausted, I think I will go to my room now. "I explained him. "Okay, but you will come to the dinner later, do you? "He asked. „Of course I will, I am hungry like a bear! "I said with a little smile on my face. "Perfect, see you later little girl", he smirked. "Yeah, until then", I said and went into my room. Little girl… he often calls me with that name, maybe it is because I am almost the smallest person in whole Rivendell, but somehow I like this name.
I walked into my room and lay down on my bed. The sun was still shining. I can't imagine living anywhere else. Everything seems to be perfect here, the sun, the waterfalls, the temperature and of course all the nice people who live here. I closed my eyes and just did nothing. After a few minutes there was a knock at the door. At first I didn't want to open because it was so cozy, but then I opened my eyes again and opened the door. It was Valariya, a good friend of mine. I liked to sing my self-written songs with her because her voice was just beautiful. "Valariya, what's up?", I asked her. "Sorry for disturbing you, but I heard that you came back from your first battle and I just wanted to see if you're okay", she said after she entered my room. She was always so kind to me. "Oh, thank you, well it was very exhausting but I am fine but… well, today some dwarfs and Gandalf arrived and my father invited all to dinner and he also wanted me to come…", I said with a strange undertone in my voice. "That sounds great, or not?", she asked. "Well yes… It is great but I really don't know what to wear, how to wear my hair and yeah… Girl problems you know", I said and tried to smile. "Oh sweety, that's no problem, I will help you!", she said with a big smile on her face. "Really? Thank you, you saved my life!" I smirked.
After long time of searching, talking, laughing and fooling around I finally had a quite beautiful outfit I thought. "You look gorgeous", Valariya said. "Really? Thank you", I said with a big smile on my face. Suddenly there was a knock at the door. "Keona? Are you ready? We are already late", a voice said, it was the voice of Navarion. "I'm coming!", I was calling. I opened the door and there was Navarion, his brown long hair was shining, he wore a light blue long garment and light brown boots. "Wow, you-you look gorgeous" he said with wide opened eyes. "Thank you, you look great too" I said with a smile. "Shall we go?" I added. "I would be a pleasure", he said with a smile. "Have fun!", Valariya said. "Thank you", I thanked. Then, Navarion and I went in direction of the eating hall.
When we arrived everybody was already there. We entered the hall and suddenly all conversations and the music stopped. Literally everybody was staring at us. I hate this feeling. We went to our seats silently. Then my father broke the silence and said: "You are late". "Sorry, we forgot the time", I apologized. "No, problem, I think we can start eating now". And we started. I saw Navarion creating a salad. "Hey, are you on a diet?", I smirked. "What? Why do you think I'm on a diet?", he asked. "Since when you eat a salad as main dish?", I still can't hide my grin. "Oh, I understand. Look, I only think that it wouldn't be productive to have a big belly when I want to impress a girl", he said. "Oh, you want to impress a girl? That's the latest thing I hear, do I know her?", I asked excited. "Well, let's talk about that another time, okay?". I could see, that it was embarrassing for him. "Okay, as you like", I said with a smile. During our conversation I felt like somebody watched us.
So I looked around and noticed those brown eyes again. I looked into them. He smiled at me. I didn't know how to react because I couldn't believe what's happening right now. So I tried so smile back. I felt like a little child, most likely I blushed.
