Chapter 31

"AHHHHHHH!" My shriek almost literally shook the house. Everyone came running and threw open the door of my room, only to find me on the bed with Beleg and Maeglin hanging off of me.

That wasn't so bad, but what WAS so awful about the situation was that I was- 1) my hair was sopping wet from just getting out of the shower 2) I was dressed in nothing but a simple sleep dress that came down to my knees that was still wet from my hair and therefore sticky 3) Maeglin had buried his fingers in my hair and was trying to pull them back out 4) Beleg was stuck to me like a leech with his arms around my waist as he grinned happily 5) and they had just suddenly appeared in my room for apparently no reason.

"Yonya-" I started, starting to panic as my shift slowly slid up my leg. Then there was a tug on my hair and my hands flew up to grasp Maeglin's hands. "Hanno! No! Ahhhh!" I managed to pull his hands out just as my shift slid up a good three inches.

I grabbed the hem and yanked it back down, just as Maeglin decided it was a good idea to tackle me in a hug.

"Me too, Muinthel!"

"Hey, she's my Naneth!"

"Yonya, hanno, please-" and then I fell off of the bed. Elíl and Lir started screaming with laughter at me, doubling over. Beleg and Maeglin landed on top of me, both hugging me tightly. The shift slid up to my calf. One sleeve of it fell down. My hair was dripping and plastered to my skin. I heard a choke.

"Get Glorfindel out of here before he decides to do something- Thel, hurry UP!" Moryo shouted.

"Hey, how can you accuse me of something like that-!" Glorfindel's protest was cut off as someone shoved him out the door.

"ATTO, THIS IS NOT FUNNY!" I yelled.

"What do you mean? Aren't you glad to see us?" Maeglin sounded petulant. I sighed, then gently placed my hands on their chests.

"Yonya, hanno, please, I can't breathe." I rasped. They clambered off as my brothers hurried over to me. I reached out for the both of them again and pulled them into my arms.

They buried their heads into my shoulders. I rolled my eyes. "Oh you two." I sighed, but there was a smile in my voice. I leaned down and kissed their heads fondly. "Yes, I'm glad to see you. It's just that this wasn't the best time..." I pulled back as they sniffled repentantly.

"Don't cry, yonya, hanno. I will always love you." I smiled. Beleg reached up and pressed a kiss to my cheek.

"Sorry nana. I love you too." He said shyly.

"Me too, muinthel." Maeglin added, kissing my cheek as well. I laughed softly at them.

"Now then, you two, I'm guessing that Atto means that it's time you moved in. Well." I sighed and rolled my eyes to the ceiling with a put-upon face.

"Are you going to at least give me two beds or something?" I groused, and there was a faint laugh before two beds appeared out of nowhere. "I suppose I should thank you for that." I scoffed, and then gently shooed the two into the bathroom.

"Go take a bath you two! I'm sure lord Nàmo will provide you with night clothes." I said, and they went off without a word.

I turned back to my family, who took one look at my crossed arms and raised eyebrow- and began to laugh. Nelyo gathered me up into a hug, shaking with laughter.

"You should have heard your scream." He choked.

"Oh you think I didn't?" I asked dryly, and he fell backwards laughing.

"Nice. I think even Drago would be proud of that one." Celegorm smirked. I sighed.

"Next time... Don't keep your door unlocked." Moryo said into my ear as he hugged me. I sighed again.

"Moryo-"

"Don't Moryo me! You're the one at fault this time!" He scoffed, pulling away and crossing his arms as though just realizing that he had been hugging me (Valar forbid) in front of the the whole family. (Horrified gasp)

"- thank you." I finished with a smile. "I'm so glad you care for me." I added shyly. His cheeks turned red as he turned away with a mutter.

Elíl and Lir collapsed on me, giggling crazily. "That was epic." Elíl grinned.

"It was hysterical." Lir cracked up.

I shoved them off playfully. "Oh fine." I pouted. Mairon bounced into my lap.

"I love you too." He said with a pout. "Don't forget me."

I sighed and shook my head fondly at him. "As if, Mairon!" I protested. And then I smirked at Elíl and Lir, whispering to him loudly so that everyone could hear. "By the way, would you mind being the ring bearer for the triple wedding? I wanted you to but Elíl and Lir was afraid you'd be too reluctant to give the rings up..."

The Feänorions began howling as Elíl and Lir glared at me. Mairon just giggled. "Okay! I don't mind. And I wouldn't do that, I'm only interested in this one." He held up the golden ring that I had bought for him back on Earth. I smiled.

"Good. Well, I'd better go tell Glorfy I'm okay..." I stood and headed for the door.

"Oh, you are? Like that? When I just warned you about locking doors after showers?" Moryo asked sarcastically. But I shook my head at him.

"No, Moryo." I smiled fondly. "Like this." I replaced the clothes on me with my Maia skills, and instead I was dressed in a new, clean nightshift that came up to my knees and was less thin than the other one.

"Better." He agreed, and everyone snickered.

I headed out the door, and then suddenly turned back around with a grin. I pointed at Lir, and suddenly she was in the same thing as I was. "Have fun, Káno." I said slyly, and then grabbed Elíl and dragged her out with me.

"MÍLETH!" Lir shouted, but I just laughed. "This is not- mmph!" Even Elíl had to laugh hysterically at that, knowing what it meant.

"Why not?" Maglor's voice asked softly. I paused in the hallway, tears streaming down my cheeks as the rest of the brothers ran out the door gagging.

I finally recovered and dragged Elíl off again in search of Thel and Glorfy. We finally tumbled into Glorfindel's room as I laughed my head off and Elíl landed on top of me, giggling. I wriggled.

"Get off, Elíl!" I protested, and she rolled off. I stood and brushed myself off, then threw myself onto Thel, hugging him.

"Thank you, Thel, for making sure that my honor wasn't compromised! As a token of my gratitude..." I turned and pointed at Elíl, who was suddenly in the same dress as I was...

"NO! Míleth!" She wailed, but I merely pushed Thel towards her. He happily swung her up and carried her off as I waved and laughed.

"You are truly devious." Glorfindel's voice sounded behind me. I turned back around with a smile.

"No. That compliment belongs to the Valar." I countered cheerfully, and then sat in his lap. "My apologies, Glorfindel, for worrying you." I said, looking down sheepishly with the puppy dog face. He sighed.

"When you make an apology like that... How can I refuse?" He said softly. Much too softly. My eyes widened as I attempted to move out of his lap, but he already caught me by the waist, smiling.

"Going so fast? I haven't even gotten the chance to forgive you." He went on softly. I swallowed.

"Glorfindel- please- that's not necessary-" I tried. Too little too late.

"But I like to forgive." He whispered, and then pressed me to him, burying his face into my hair and breathing deeply.

"Don't sniff me! How many times to I have to tell you- that's just... Strange." I squeaked, clutching his shirt. He laughed quietly.

"But you smell so good... Like lavender... And you feel so soft..." He said, nuzzling me with a contented sigh.

"Glorfindel..." I attempted to pull away. "If anybody comes along you know what this will look like." I said sourly. He chuckled.

"But I'm not doing anything at all." He replied.

"That's the point!" I retorted, and he sighed.

"You win." He admitted defeat. He pulled away, giving me a mournful look. "But won't you at least give me a good-night kiss?" He pleaded.

I turned away with a sigh. "Glorfindel... I... I- I don't think I want to get married for a while yet. I mean, I'm still your betrothed, I don't want to change that, but I meant..." I tried to explain, when he placed a hand on my cheek, cutting me off.

"I understand." He said softly. "I know, I expected that. I will be ready whenever you are, melda. As long as you are mine, I don't care how long it takes." He whispered gently, leaning forwards and catching my mouth in his. After a moment, I pulled away and he sighed disappointedly.

"Thank you." I said, blushing darkly. "Now if you'll excuse me... Good night." And I precipitously fled.

...

It was morning. It was breakfast time, in fact. I looked down at my bowl and sighed.

"Well. It looks like another chapter of life has started! Hopefully it'll be a little calmer this time." Elíl said cheerfully. Lir and I stared at her, horrified.

"Oh force, oh Valar, please tell me you didn't just jinx it." Lir said weakly. Elíl rolled her eyes.

"There's no such things as 'jinxing' in Aman!" She protested with a snort.

"Ummm, Padawan?" Nàmo suddenly appeared at the kitchen table, looking apologetic.

"Apologies, but... There's a few guests in the halls I need your help with." He said with a nervous smile.

"Yes?" I asked, suddenly getting a vague suspicion of what was to come.

"Well... It seems as though you and Elíl's parents have arrived a little earlier than expected... And well... I need you to help with Feänor...?" He offered, wincing slightly.

I stared, feeling the blood drain out of my face. "So let me get this straight. I have to help my parents get into elven form, raise Beleg and Maeglin, tell my parents that I'm engaged, and Feänor is making trouble." I said weakly.

"Ummm... Yes?" Nàmo offered tentatively.

Then I stood up on shaking legs. "Elíl..."

"YOU JINXED IT!" My scream actually did make the house shake this time.

The End... Or not?

So... Dow it deserve a sequel, you think? *sniffles* I had so much fun writing this-! I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did...
