Okay, here's the next chapter. To answer question of Tereina Denny, yes I'm okay. I just really want to get out of the hotel. We've been here a month now waiting for an open apartment. Other than that, all is well.
"Frodo, come and help an old man," Gandalf calls.
Their voices are too low for me to hear, but it doesn't bother me too much. If it was something I needed to know If be told,right? That's what I believe anyway.
Since the trek down the mountain I've been a lot closer to Legolas. I'm probably getting on his nerves He isn't saying anything about it though.
"Legolas?" I mumble softly.
"Yes Lady Hermione?"
"Is it okay that I'm always so close?" I ask. "I mean-"
"After the mountain incident, fear is only to be expected," He says. "And if you feel that you're bothering me, take this." He takes something from around his neck and hands it to me.
"Thank you," I say. I have a feeling that this necklace does a lot more than look pretty. I place it around my own neck. A silver leaf surrounded by glowing, green emeralds. I notice a shocked look on Aragorn's face as he sees the necklace. It lasts only for a moment.
"You," He says, "must be very special." I blush furiously at his comment.
"How so?" I ask softly.
"With that necklace, he's alerted whenever you're in danger," Aragorn replies. "And also, if he dies, you inherit everything he owns."
"Oh!" I mumble. "Legolas, I can't accept this!"
"It's a gift," He says. "Keep it." I find myself blushing again.
I touch the necklace gently.
"Thank you," I say quietly. His lips twitch upwards with my words.
"Now, if you wish, you may leave my side."
I find myself not wanting to even though I have the option. I fall back anyways. I need to talk to Harry.
Yay! Chapter complete.
