A/N: This chapter SEXY and TENSION FILLED (but not really). Except this sexy moment is short because I'm evil and stuff. I can promise that the next chapter will probably be much more sexy.
While the rest of the men slept far behind the both of you, you and Kili scouted around the camp. Finishing with your walks around the area, you two sat down in front of the cot.
"BORING," you said, and you threw yourself back against the ground.
"Well it would be much more boring if I were abandon you for a nights sleep, so a little gratefulness please," Kili said to you.
He wasn't very focused on you though, his attention was vigilant towards the distance. You propped yourself up on your elbows.
"Except Thorin told you this was your job. You can't get out of it that easily."
He didn't reply, so you tried to keep the conversation going. You sat up and hugged your knees to your chest.
"I've never sought out an adventure with a group," you started to say, your eyes focused somewhere else, anywhere else. "I'm really a loner."
Kili turned to you, his eyes filled with sympathy. That's when you turned stone cold again.
"No, no it's not like that. Don't pity me, I like being alone. I was just trying to get a conversation started. We are stuck here for a bit."
Even after giving him that closure, he didn't move his eyes from yours.
"You appeared in the middle of the forest, we only noticed you because you shot an arrow directly at us," he said, inching closer. "and yet you joined us on this journey. That was a lot of trust our part."
"A lot of trust on my part too."
"Well, trust is all we have to offer," he whispered.
"I appreciate that," you breathed out against his lips.
In that moment, you close that gap between the two of you and pressed you lips against his. Regaining his composure post shock, Kili melded his lips with yours. You wrapped your arms around his neck, trying without success to bring him any closer than he already was. His hands moved to your waist, and the both of you sought out something in the other. Companionship. Or rather, alliance.
Anything more romantic than this is out of the question right now, they have a reason on this trip and so do I, and I don't think either of us needs this distraction you thought. And even then, you knew you were lying to yourself. As the two of your move your mouths in sync with each other, as your bodies rocked in sync, you knew this was already going to far to be stopped.
Before you could think it through anymore than that, you heard a screech, or more of a shout, out in the distance. You pulled back from him, cupping his cheeks. Suddenly, you both came to a realization.
"Orcs," you said against his lips.
