Summary: Someone gets a...bit sick.
Disclaimer: I own nothing. This is fiction
Surprise!
Bilbo sighed into his soup. He was not enjoying his meal, surprising for a hobbit. But how could he enjoy the meal when the Queen of Erebor was glaring at him. He knew Bazani hated him, but she usually acted as if she liked him when Thorin was around. She had been acting odd the past couple of days. Actually so had Frerin. Bilbo looked to his brother in law, finding him staring at the Queen. Oh no. He hoped Frerin wasn't hiding any feelings for Bazani. Bofur already felt undeserving of his husband, especially after he was knew that was madness. Frerin loved his husband, more than anything. Then why was he staring at Bazani so intently? Bilbo was very confused. He would never understand these dwarfs.
"Balin, remind me again. Why can't we tell Thorin about Bazani and her vendetta against Bilbo?"
"We have already spoken about this brother. You know how protective Thorin is of his hobbit. Imagine what he would do if e discovered that someone planned to hurt Bilbo."
"He would kill them. No. He would make them suffer and then kill them."
"Exactly. And if Thorin kills Bazani, there would be chaos in the Iron Mountains, where the Ironquarrys are very powerful. It could cause serious problems for Thorin."
"Aye, you're right brother. Until completely necessary, we shall keep Thorin in the dark."
"Agreed."
Oin was woken up the next morning by banging on his door and Bilbo shouting his name. He stumbled to the door.
"What? What is wrong Bilbo? Are you sick?"
"Not me. Thorin won't wake up. I've been trying for ten minutes and he's not responding at all."
Oin grabbed his bag and ran after the hobbit to the King's rooms. Thorin lay in the bed, skin pale, barely breathing.
"Bilbo, leave me. Get Frerin and Dis. I will examine the king."
Bilbo nodded, leaving the dwarf to his work. He found Frerin, Dis and their families heading to Thorin's room, woken by Bilbo's shouts. Dis swept the hobbit into a hug.
"Bilbo, my dear. Are you alright?"
"I am. It's Thorin that's sick."
"What's wrong with him?"
"I can answer that."
Oin stood in front of the group, shaking with anger. Bilbo placed a gentle hand on the physician's shoulder, receiving a small smile in return.
"What's wrong with with him Oin?"
"Aconite. Wolfsbane."
The other dwarves were confused. Dis broke the silence.
"I don't understand Oin."
"Thorin has been poisoned."
A/N Come on. Everyone expected me to poison Bilbo, admit it. Next chapter, Bilbo tends to Thorin and Bazani sets her plan in motion.
