NOTE!

Well, to be honest, this chapter has a silly background since I was studying and it was late and my head ached. I was dead tired and I really had not much mind to know what I was doing. I suddenly stopped studying and began to write this chapter, but I was not very aware of what I was writing. After I finished, I closed the laptop and went to sleep. The next day I read it and didn't like it, but decided to show it to Windy, telling her that I didn't want this to be posted since I didn't really like it, but she thought it was funny, so here is the chapter. Hope you enjoy it.

23- If it's not constant snoring, it's constant singing, or both!

When you are waking up before the sun has the chance to shine every day and spend endless hours dragging your feet over uneven terrains, hills and other sceneries, the only thing that can keep you sane is the thought of a nice sleep at night. Unfortunately, that is not so easy to get in this group. I told you about the bickering from the elf and dwarf, but that is not all they do that keeps me awake at night. For example: when it was time for Legolas to take the night watch, he would spend most of it singing. He does have a very nice voice, but I am a very light sleeper, so any type of noise easily wakes me up, even when I am dead tired. At first I tried to ignore him, but the sound made it hard for me to gain some sleep, which made me more irritable than what I already was. At the same time, Gimli's snores were the stuff of horror. An airplane motor is less noisy than him! I have no clue as to how the rest of the members of the Fellowship are able to sleep through this! The thing is, one night I snapped. The elf was singing and the dwarf was snoring and I could not take another night of this. I don't know what possessed me, but I bolted to my feet, charged at the dwarf, took his backpack and shoved it on his face to muffle his snores. The dude sleeps like a log so he didn't really do more than get up half asleep and mumble incoherently. After that I turned around and, pointing at the elf, yelled with murderous eyes:

"Will you shut the bloody crap up?! Some of us are trying to get some sleep!" I almost regretted it immediately when a flash of hurt crossed the elf's eyes. I was just about to apologize, when he narrowed his eyes and angrily replied:

"I will not be spoken to by a bratty child!"

And that's when I really snapped. After that, there was a very loud discussion between the elf and I. not much could be deciphered between the lines of:

"I am no child you bast…"

"… such an immature gir…"

" …am a twenty year old woman and you…"

"Of all the women in Arda why…"

"… rather an orc kill me now…"

"… rather slice my own neck than…"

"… stupid princeling…"

"… most disrespectful…"

"…girly, goldilocks…"

"What did you call me?!"

"You heard me!"

"How dare you…"

"…stupidest, most annoying, narcissistic…"

"…brat!"

We were getting dangerously close to each other, though it was actually only dangerous to me since I am no match for the thousand year old warrior, but just as Legolas had reached for the hilt of his dagger to threaten me, Galdalf awoke.

"What in the name of Elbereth is going on here?!"

At that moment, Legolas and I fell silent at the sight of the infuriated wizard. I could have sworn his eyes were glowing fiery red at that moment. After a match between Legolas and I of "He said, she said" to tell the Wizard what had happened, we ended up nowhere except being forced to shake hands and promise to get along even if it meant it would kill us.

Needless to say, neither of us was willing to shake hands, and when we did, Legolas took advantage of his superior strength to give my hand a painful squeeze, but I was not going to just take it, so I dug my nails to the point where I drew blood. I knew that it would be completely healed probably in less than an hour while my hand would hurt for a day or two, but for all it was worth it. This was the last time we had an argument like this, and Legolas did his best to keep from singing or to at least tone it down as much as possible.

Through all of this, the stupid dwarf slept like a Sleeping Beauty, or more like a Sleeping Ugly.

This, I think, is the longest chapter we have so far. I suppose that we have picked on Legolas more than on any other character, but the elf is the easiest to pick on hahaha, plus it's quite funny to get him and Alex in the worst of situations, like when she pulled his hair and ripped some off XD
