Thranduil refused to let go of the dark haired elf in his arms as he breathed in his scent. It was much different than he remembered, but the spicy and sweet aroma of Saigon cinnamon complimented him so well.

"Gwannas lû and, meleth nîn," Thranduil muttered softly.

"I know," Elrond said fighting tears. "I am so happy you are safe."

"When did you get here?" Thranduil said finally pulling away trying not to bring unwanted attention to them.

"Just a little while ago," Elrond grinned. "I helped… well not helped… I delivered a baby by myself today."

"Really?" Thranduil asked with excitement in his voice. I am so proud of you. I knew you could do it."

"That is exactly what I told him as well," Andreth added turning around from the elderly man. "Do you want to walk with us?"

"I would love to. Adar asked me to walk around and find anyone that may join us and I hate to say it, but we both know that he will gain people here. I have until dinner unless I send him a letter saying I am joining someone else for dinner in hopes of recruiting them."

"I will see if you can join us for dinner, if you want, Thranduil," Andreth smiled at him.

"I would love to," he smiled back while keeping his eyes on Elrond as much as he could.

"Then let us head to where we are staying and if you two want to hang out there, you can. If not, feel free to walk around," Andreth said as they headed for a small inn close to where the stable was.

Upon entering, Andreth spoke in that old language to the inn keeper who laughed and nodded. It did not take long before she was leading them upstairs.

"I have two rooms here for you at the end of the hall and you are more than welcome to join us for dinner, Thranduil," she said as she showed them their rooms and headed back to the front.

"I think I am going to take a bath. If you need me, come and knock," Andreth said leaving the younger elves alone.

Elrond took this moment to open the door and pull Thranduil inside. As soon as the door shut, Elrond wasted no time in pressing his lips to the soft lips of his lover. Thranduil immediately kissed him back as his arms wrapped around Elrond's neck. Knowing that Thranduil was most likely not ready to advance their relationship, Elrond kept his hands still on Thranduil's hips. He only decided to break the kiss when he needed to breath.

"I missed you so much," Thranduil panted hard as he stayed close to Elrond.

"Same, meleth nîn," Elrond panted. "Gi melen."

Thranduil blushed muttering gi melen back. He had never said it out loud to anyone before, but it seemed appropriate to say it. Running his fingers into Elrond's dark hair, he caressed the back of his head before pulling him back into a kiss. Elrond was a little shocked by the sudden kiss from Thranduil, but immediately kissed back wanting to taste him. Leaning into him, Elrond felt Thranduil stumble backwards against the wall. Feeling his lover's body pressed against his made his member stir and Elrond immediately pulled back, breaking the kiss yet again.

"Elrond, it is okay. Just… I am not ready to go all the way. I do not mind having you against me."

"Even if that means my very erect member is pressed against you?"

Thranduil nodded as he blushed more while thinking about what he agreed to. Elrond stepped back to Thranduil and pulled the slightly shorter elf to him.

"Do you fully trust me, Thranduil?"

"In what way?"

"To keep my promise to not go all the way with you."

"I do, why?"

"Because I am going to ask you to let me please you the best I can without breaking that promise to you. If you are ever uncomfortable or want me to stop, I will. You just have to say so," Elrond explained as Thranduil thought about what he was saying.

"I trust you with this," Thranduil said looking up in Elrond's grey eyes with love.

Seeing this made Elrond's breath catch before he leaned in and kissed Thranduil before picking him up. Thranduil's eyes widened as he felt himself lifted off the floor, but refused to break the kiss as he nipped at Elrond's lip gently. Elrond moaned softly as he reached the bed and pushed Thranduil down watching the silver hair sprawl across the bed underneath him. It was a sight that Elrond absolutely loved and hoped he would see many more times. Thranduil remembered the day with Elrond in his room all those years ago and decided to tease him back. One hand went into Elrond's hair and gripped a handful of the silky dark hair before pulling it as he had once before causing Elrond to moan loudly and nip Thranduil's lip a little harder than he meant to. Thranduil moaned in response as Elrond gently grinned down against Thranduil's member causing Thranduil to gasp and moan loudly as he broke the kiss. He was not expecting the feeling that serged through his body when Elrond did this. Elrond did this again causing Thranduil to moan louder and push up against him. Elrond did not expect this as he moaned and leaned down to kiss Thranduil again. As he kissed him, Elrond took Thranduil's hands in his own and pinned them above his head. Thranduil's eyes went wide as he continues to kiss Elrond as he felt his lover's hips grind down against his yet again. The feeling made him want more than Elrond was giving him.

Elrond looked down at Thranduil as he pulled away panting. He released his hands before moving to sit up on his knees and slowly unbutton Thranduil's robe. Thranduil blushed as he bit his upper lip and moved his own hands to Elrond's robe to unbutton his as well. Elrond made very quick work of the buttons while Thranduil's fingers shook. As soon as Elrond finished, he took Thranduil's hands in his own.

"You okay?" He asked looking down at him.

"Yes… Just nervous… And I did not know that could feel so good…" he admitted.

"You mean this?" Elrond asked grinding up into Thranduil while still sitting over him.

"Yes…" Thranduil moaned, gripping Elrond's hands tightly.

Elrond grinned as he released Thranduil's hands, hearing Thranduil whine softly before finishing unbuttoning his own robe and pulling it off. As soon as he let it fall, he stood up and pulled off his under robe, leaving his chest bare. Thranduil looked at him completely embarrassed, but also wanting to touch the soft skin in front of him again. Sitting up, Thranduil slid off his robe before Elrond reached forward and pulled off Thranduil's under robe. Seeing the perfectly smooth skin, Elrond blushed before taking Thranduil's hands in his own again and pushing him down to the bed once more. Grinding against him this time, allowed him to also rub against Thranduil's chest. Gasping at the feeling, Thranduil arched up into him, wanting to feel Elrond against him.

"Gi melen," Elrond said softly before kissing Thranduil deeply.

Thranduil simply closed his eyes and kissed back as his breathing became more and more uneven. Releasing his hands, Elrond slid a little farther down and proceeded to kiss on Thranduil's neck before nipping the skin gently, knowing that he could heal any marks he made on his skin. Thranduil leaned his head away giving Elrond more access to his neck. In doing so, Elrond bit down on his neck a little rougher than the nips he had been doing. Thranduil gasped as one of his hands went into Elrond's hair and pulled it. Moaning, Elrond released Thranduil's neck before kissing down his chest. Thranduil opened his eyes and watched Elrond carefully as he panted hard. When Elrond reached the top of his lover's pants, he paused and looked up at Thranduil before moving to one of his hips and nipping the skin playfully. Thranduil moaned as he pushed his hip up into Elrond wanting more than he would ever admit out loud. Elrond took this as a good sign and nipped his harder this time as a free hand went to Thranduil's other hip and gripped it roughly as he massaged it. Thranduil's hand moved to grip the sheet as he fought to keep control of himself. He wanted to give into Elrond so bad, but he still wasn't completely sure about it. When Elrond released his mouth from this hip, he moved to nip the other while his hand gripped and massaged the one that was just in his mouth.

"Áva hauta," Thranduil panted throwing his head back to the bed as Elrond grinned knowing that Thranduil was enjoying himself.

Biting down, Thranduil cried out in shock as Elrond released his mouth and looked up.

"What?"

"Áva hauta," Thranduil demanded as his hand reached for Elrond's head to push back down to his hip, but accidentally pushed him right into his member.

As soon as Thranduil felt this, he released Elrond's head and pulled away slightly. Elrond let him, not knowing if that was the cut off point, but once he realized that Thranduil had not pulled all the way back, he slid a single hand over Thranduil's chest making him shiver with pleasure all over again. Trailing his hand down to the top of his pants, he stopped before trailing back up his chest. This time when he trailed his hand down, he traveled a bit lower to drag his hand over his clothed member. Thranduil gasped as he felt this and watched Elrond carefully. Elrond smiled softly as he did this yet again, but when he reached his member, he softly cupped him. Thranduil could not help but push up into Elrond's hand wanting to feel him against him yet again. Elrond smiled and repeated this action, but before he could slide his hand back down, Thranduil grabbed his wrist and pulled him up. As soon as he could reach his head, he grasped his hair and pulled him straight towards him, pressing his lips firmly against Elrond's. Elrond kissed back as his hand traveled to Thranduil's lower back. Thranduil kissed deeper than he had before as his free hand went between them and cupped Elrond's member. Feeling this, Elrond gasped and pushed into him before tangling his hand in Thranduil's hair and pulling causing him to gasp loudly.

"This is about you, meleth nîn."

"But you deserve it too."

"Thranduil, have you ever touched yourself?" Elrond asked curious only receiving a nod. "Can I as long as that's all I do?"

Thranduil blushed thinking about this for a moment. He knew that it would not tie him to Elrond and that Elrond promised to stop if it was too much.

"As long as you hold up to your promise," Thranduil answered looking him in the eye.

"Of course I…"

"And…" he continued cutting off Elrond. "I can touch you in the same way."

Elrond nodded blushing as well at the thought of Thranduil touching him. Elrond carefully untied his own pants as his member strained to get out. Thranduil watched getting very nervous even though he knew they were not going to go all the way, but as soon as he could see the size of Elrond, he started to panic.

"I am sorry. I can not do this," he said shaking his head.

"Okay," Elrond said removing his hands from his pants and stopping what he was doing. "I understand."

"You sure?" Thranduil looked into those grey eyes that were watching him.

"Of course. I am not going to push you to do something you do not want to do."

Thranduil nodded as he leaned forward and kissed him softly. Elrond smiled pushing the silver hair behind Thranduil's ears gently.

"Give me a moment to get my pants tied again," Elrond said standing up and adjusting himself before tying his pants back.

Thranduil just smiled while he watched him crawl back onto the bed beside him. Wrapping his arms around him, he placed his forehead against Thranduil's.

"Yá caitat asenye, nán quanta," Elrond whispered making Thranduil blush.

"Same," Thranduil said with the biggest grin on his face. "Gi melen."

"Gi melen," Elrond replied kissing him softly as a knock came to the door. "Yes?"

"Are you two ready for dinner?" Andreth called.

"Yes," Elrond replied as Thranduil nodded. "Give us a minute and we will be out."

"No problem," Andreth smiled having a feeling he knew what they were up to.

Elrond gently rolled away and picked up Thranduil's under robe and proceeded to pull it on him before grabbing his own and sliding it on. Grabbing both of their robes, he tossed Thranduil his as they each started to button up the many buttons. Turning to look at Thranduil, Elrond noticed a mark on his neck and knew that it would have to go. Walking over, he muttered softly with his hand over the mark and when he pulled his hand away, it had disappeared.

"I can not leave marks on you. Before you leave, make sure there are no other marks. I do not want your Adar thinking someone is sleeping with his precious son."

"Thanks," Thranduil laughed standing up and kissing Elrond. "Ready?"

"Yes," Elrond responded before opening the door and allowing Thranduil to exit first. "After you, Andreth."

Without saying a word, Andreth lead the two young elves down to the dinner hall where they came face to face with Oropher.
