Author's Note: None
Glorfindel had had enough. When he first arrived in Imladris, he was greeted by all with reverence and kindness, even from the taciturn Advisor. The Slayer did not know what he had done, but not two months after he had met Erestor, the Advisor had turned cold and indifferent to him. That was nearly two years ago and Glorfindel’s heart hurt too much to go on this way. Almost instantly, the Advisor had stolen his heart, but Glorfindel knew that he would never gain Erestor’s love but he wanted his friendship at least.
Glorfindel turned the corner and upon seeing the dark-haired Advisor, called out, “Erestor, I need to speak to you!”
Erestor mentally cursed his luck at seeing Glorfindel and turned quickly, saying over his shoulder, “I forgot, Lord Elrond wanted to speak to me before the evening meal. I will have to talk to you later.”
Glorfindel narrowed his eyes and followed in pursuit, he was not about to let Erestor get away from him.
All day, Erestor had to suffer the fools from the neighboring villages in a trade meeting and now he was just too exhausted to deal with Glorfindel. The Advisor did not know why the Valar sought to torment him like this, by sending Glorfindel into his life. He had enjoyed the Elda’s company, enjoyed his sense of humor, but that was until the Slayer took hold of his heart. A heart that had been well hidden and unattainable and still, to this day, Erestor did not know how Glorfindel had captured it. He knew that the mighty Balrog Slayer would never be interested in someone like him, besides, if the rumors and legends were true, he and Ecthelion had been lovers. Surely Glorfindel still loved him, for Erestor had yet to see Glorfindel take a lover since his return.
Glorfindel stopped and peaked quietly around the corner and watched as Erestor ducked into his office. Moving quickly, Glorfindel reached the chamber just before Erestor managed to close the door.
Erestor’s eyes widened when Glorfindel pushed his way into his office and slammed the door closed. Quickly turning, Erestor went to stand behind his desk, trying to regain his composure.
Glorfindel stopped before Erestor’s desk and demanded, “Why do you run from me? Why do you dislike me so? What did I do to make you treat me the way that you do?”
Erestor could not look into Glorfindel’s eyes so he pretended to tidy up is already neat desk and said, “I do not dislike you.”
Glorfindel was about to call him a liar but heard the slight hitch in the Advisor’s voice. Frowning, he walked around the desk and grasped the Advisor by his shoulders and said, “Then why will you not look into my eyes?”
Erestor could not, he knew that he could not possibly hide his feeling for the Slayer, so he closed them tightly and whispered, “I am tired Lord Glorfindel. I have had a long day. Maybe we could finish this conversation on the morrow?”
Taking a chance, Glorfindel cradled the Advisor’s cheek, lifted his face and said, “Open your eyes meleth (love).”
Erestor’s eyes snapped open upon hearing the endearment and he saw the loving, hopeful smile that graced the Slayer’s lips.
Glorfindel watched as the most beautiful chocolate-brown eyes filled with tears. He did not miss the vulnerability that was also present and he vowed that he would see it disappear before the night was done. “I love you Erestor. I have from almost the moment that I met you. Saes (Please) tell me that you feel the same,” Glorfindel said hopefully.
It was like something in Erestor broke free and he could not contain the happiness that he felt and he smiled, “I have always loved you.”
Glorfindel beamed down at Erestor before he drew him into his arms and pressed his lips to his new found love. When air was needed, he hugged Erestor close and whispered in his ear, “You have made my life worth living once more.”
Erestor tightened his arms around Glorfindel’s neck and he knew that he was the reason why he had hid his heart for so long. This soul that held him was the only one that had the key that could unlock Erestor’s soul’s icy barrier.
