Chapter 11- The Last Homely Home

Anne felt a little nervous as she followed the company into Rivendell. Gandalf headed the group and walked towards the city with a smile gracing his face. The brunette spotted her friend leaning on Nori, dragging her ankle a little. Daisy had been stupid keeping it to herself. They reached a courtyard and Anne peeked over Bofur's shoulder when she heard a voice.

"Mithrindir!"

"Ah Lindir!"

From over the hatted-dwarfs shoulder Anne could see a dark-haired elf. He was absolutely gorgeous...though she daren't tell anyone else that. Daisy glanced over to her friend and mouthed. 'OH MY GOD!' Anne chuckled and nodded. She turned her head when she felt a hand on her shoulder. Out of the corner she saw Fili glaring at the elf. The angry look didn't suit his handsome features...handsome?!

"Since when did I think he was handsome?...I mean he IS handsome..."

The pounding of hooves drew the attention away from Lindir and Gandalf, who'd been conversing in elvish, to the sight of many riders and horses approaching the group. Thorin barked something and Daisy rolled her eyes as she, Anne and Bilbo were shoved into the middle of the group. The horses circled the group and the elves looked down at the bearded men. Thorin glared at Gandalf. Daisy felt Nori's hold on her tighten and she glanced around spotting Bombur looking fierce and Kili's dark eyes were focused hard on the elves. It made him look that little bit more attractive. Daisy shook herself as her heart jumped and looked up as a majestic looking elf jumped from his horse and hugged the grey wizard.

"Strange for orcs to come so near our borders. Something or someone has drawn them near."

"Ah yes that may've been us."

Anne sent a look to her friend and the pair chuckled. Elrond spotted Thorin and walked forward.

"Welcome Thorin son of Thrain."

"I do not believe we have met."

"You have your grandfather's bearings. I knew Thror when he ruled under the mountain."

The elf gave him a gentle smile. Thorin raised a dark eyebrow.

"Indeed he made no mention of you!"

Daisy snorted loudly and Elrond's grey eyes fell on her, then he scanned the group and spotted Anne.

"Females?"

Gandalf nodded.

"Yes, dear friends and they're travelling with us."

Elrond hummed.

"Indeed..."

Lindir whispered to his Lord and Elrond smiled warmly at the group.

"Nartho I noer, toltho I viruvor. Boe I annam vann a nethail vin."

He held his hands in a basket and tilted his head. Gloin pushed between Daisy and Dwalin, a stern glare was on his face.

"What does he say?! DOES HE OFFER US INSULT!?"

The dwarves started yelling. Daisy covered her face with her hand and Anne shook her head. Gandalf raised his voice over the shouting.

"No Master Gloin he's offering you food."

They silenced then turned to each other. Daisy huffed and moved out of the group. She limped towards Elrond.

"Are you in need of medical help?"

Thorin grabbed her arm and pulled her back.

"No she's fine."

Nori sent him a glare and turned to the elf.

"Yes she's dislocated her ankle...I don't actually know how bad it is..."

Elrond smiled.

"Don't worry I'll have my best healer see to her. My lady this way please."

He offered his arm and Daisy gratefully took it. She sent Nori a smile and a small wave. The dwarves all looked after her and then Anne ran after the pair. Meanwhile Lindir led the dwarves towards the dining area.

"I take it you want to accompany your friend?"

"Yes please Lord Elrond."

Anne helped support Daisy. They walked until Elrond had led them to a room. In the room was a large double bed, a massive dresser and an oak door led to a gigantic bathroom. He led Daisy to the bed and set her down. Anne jumped down next to her. She took her friends hand and gave it a squeeze.

"Now let me have a look at that ankle."

He slipped off the blonde's boot carefully, noticing her wince. The ankle was back to where it should be, but there was a ghastly bruise forming up the back of her leg. He ran a hand over her foot, feeling to see if anything was broken. There was a great deal of fluid and swelling, but as far as he could tell nothing was broken. The elf put the girls foot down and smiled gently.

"Nothing appears to be damaged. Just some bruising and swelling. Nothing a little rest can cure."

Daisy smiled.

"Thanks."

"My pleasure miss...?"

"Oh Daisy..."

He looked to Anne.

"Anne."

"Well ladies, as I recall my servants have prepared a bath in there and if you take a look in the dresser there will be fresh dresses so that you're clothes can be washed...and I can see if I can have some clothes tailored for you."

Without waiting to hear the girls replies, he stood and swept from the room. Anne glanced towards the bathroom and grinned.

"You wanna go first?"

"Nah you go I'm gonna investigate this wardrobe."

"Cool!"

The brunette bounced off to the bathroom and closed the door, Daisy went over to the dresser and opened the large doors. The dresses appeared to have been made for a young elf girl and Daisy marvelled at the detail in them.

…

It wasn't long before both girls had bathed and chosen a dress to wear. Anne huffed at the fact that it was tight in all areas. Daisy just rolled her eyes and told her it was better than it falling off her. The pair exited the room and walked down a corridor. Anne helped Daisy as the blonde was still limping. They asked an elf woman to where the dwarves were. The fair-haired woman smiled and pointed down a long corridor. The pair walked down the corridor and pushed open the door. Elrond, Gandalf and Throin were too engrossed in conversation to notice their arrival. The others were at a smaller table. Anne and Daisy smiled at them.

"Try it...just a mouthful!"

"I don't like green food."

Dwalin picked up the salad with disgust.

"Where's the meat?!"

"Have they got any chips?"

Daisy chuckled at them. The dwarves turned their heads and cheered.

"So ye're back then?"

Anne giggled and walked over and sat next to Dwalin. The dwarf squeezed her shoulders and planted a light kiss on her head. Daisy spotted a space between Kili and Bofur. The hatted dwarf smiled as she walked over and sat down, whereas Kili looked away. Daisy frowned a little, but soon her attention was drawn away at the sight of the fruit salad.

"Ooh pass the strawberries please Bifur."

The dwarf looked at her and passed her the pineapple. Daisy chuckled and shook her head, serving herself some of the yellow fruit anyway. Anne was chewing on a tomato, she looked at the dwarves complaining, Oin stuffed his ear trumpet with a napkin and Anne snorted.

"Don't like the music Oin?"

"Huh what?"

Her and Dwalin chuckled as the old dwarf looked around to find out who spoke. Daisy rested her head on her hand and watched an elven harp player. She closed her eyes and listened to the music and smiled.

"Beautiful isn't it?"

Kili didn't look at her, but spoke.

"Well it isn't any dwarf tune that's for sure."

Daisy looked at him. The dark-haired prince looked at the harpist and winked. A stab of heat flared through Daisy and suddenly the music didn't seem as lovely. She glared down at her plate and Kili turned to see her looking away and Dwalin watching him with disgust. The prince shuffled and popped a mushroom in his mouth.

"Can't say I fancy elf-maidens myself. They're all high cheek bones and creamy skin"

Daisy looked at Bofur who was quirking his eyebrow at Kili. She rolled her eyes and the dwarf smirked. Her gaze followed an elf as he walked passed, he looked down and smiled at the girl. Anne laughed loudly as her friend blushed and looked away. Kili was still in his previous conversation, he glanced at the elf.

"Though that one there's not bad."

Dwalin leaned forward.

"That's no an elf maid."

The younger dwarf looked confused, but then the male elf turned. Kili's eyes widened and the group of dwarves burst into hysterics. Bombur and Balin were almost in tears. Anne wiped her eyes and leaned on Dwalin as she laughed. Daisy patted Kili's arm and shook her head laughing.

"Oh Kili sometimes I love your dim moments."

The dwarf looked at her and smiled gently. The blonde had turned back to Bofur and whispered in his ear. He nodded and chuckled. The harpist plucked the strings and Nori turned his head.

"Change the tune why don't you? I feel like I'm at a funeral."

Daisy laughed and shook her head. She leaned herself on Kili's arm and the dwarf chuckled as Oin looked around.

"Did somebody die?"

Bofur stood and clambered onto the table.

"Right lads there's only one thing for it! There's an inn there's an inn there's a merry old inn. Beneath an old grey hill. And there they brew a beer so brown that the Man in the Moon himself came down one night to drink his fill..."

Everyone started banging the table and singing along. Anne looked to Daisy and laughed as they saw the elves faces of confusion.

"The ostler has a tipsy cat that plays a five-stringed fiddle. And up and down he runs his bow. Now squeaking HIGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, now purring LOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW...now sawing in the middle!"

The girls saw Elrond give Thorin a look and they giggled as the dwarf-king shook his head. Soon the dwarves had finished their antics and started clearing themselves from the room so that the elves could clear up their mess. Anne was walking towards a balcony when she felt someone catch her hand. She looked up to Fili and smiled. The blonde dwarf smiled and looked at her hand.

"I wanted to apologise for flattening you earlier."

Anne chuckled.

"It's alright Fee. Besides it wasn't as if I was complaining..."

Anne clapped a hand to her mouth and Fili's head shot up.

"What?"

"Uh..."

"Oi! Fee you coming with us to find a bath?"

Fili turned and looked at his brother.

"Yeah sure!"

He turned back to see Anne had gone. The brunette girl kept running until she spotted Daisy sitting on some steps playing with her braids and humming 'Drops of Jupiter' by Train to herself. The brunette plonked down next to the blonde and panted. Daisy dropped her braid and looked at her friend.

"Have you been running?"

"Mhm."

"In a dress?"

"Yup. Problem?"

"No...just a bit odd."

"Well who cares? Wanna go for a walk? I feel like we need to go for a walk!"

"Oh uh ok."

Without another word Anne seized her friends arm and pulled her to her feet. They linked arms and walked through the gardens and fountains of Imraldis. They talked of how gorgeous the elves were and Daisy reminded her friend of Kili's little moment. Anne noted how annoyed the blonde looked when she mentioned Kili winking at the female elf. It was the sound of laughter and rushing water that attracted their attention to their surroundings.

"Oh..."

"My..."

"God!"

There were the company shooting themselves down a fountain. Anne internally cringed as she saw the likes of Bombur, Dwalin and Gloin running around nude. Daisy scrunched up her face.

"I think I might throw up..."

"Uh huh..."

They were just about to run for the nearest bathroom when they spotted Fili and Kili launching themselves down a slide. The girls' jaws dropped as they looked at their friends. Fili and Kili had really hardened arm muscles and they both found that they couldn't look away from their chests. Daisy tore her eyes off them and glanced to see Elrond and Lindir staring at the sight. Anne, too, noticed the elves and chuckled. A couple of the dwarves looked round and spotted the girls. Shouts emerged and soon the company had all jumped in the water to hide themselves from the hysterical girls.

…

"So...so very naked."

"I thought we'd agreed that you wouldnae speak of what ye saw."

Daisy lifted her head and looked at the company. They were all in their underwear and had gathered round the fire they'd built from broken pieces of furniture. The girls had been given their clothes back, which had been cleaned and tailored to their size and had changed back into them. Anne chuckled and looked to her friend. Bilbo and Balin had just returned from their meeting with Elrond and Gandalf. Thorin was still missing.

"Wasn't our fault. You had EVERYTHING on display."

The girls shuddered.

"I'm gonna have nightmares for weeks."

Daisy snorted as the dwarves protested.

"Never mind weeks I'll be scarred for years!"

The dwarves glared at the girls who were both sat on the floor. Daisy leaned her head against the table Bombur sat on. She'd been picking at the leg with one of her knives and now it was creakin g and groaning. Bofur looked at the sausage he'd been trying to toast, then to Bifur toasting his pice of lettuce, the to his fat brother.

"Bombur catch!"

Daisy quickly moved her head as the dwarf caught the sausage. Seconds later he was rolling on his back like a tipped cow. Everyone was in a fit of hysterics, then Thorin walked in and the room silenced. He looked hard round the group.

"We need to leave!"
