The Fire Dance


Ch153


Many months had passed and Erestor woke with a groan

Rolling over, Glorfindel smiled kindly "Good morning Rabbit"

Erestor narrowed his eyes as he lightly growled "And what is so good
about it? How would You know if it is a good morning, you have only just
woke up yourself!"

Glorfindel moved closer and sighed "Talk to me Erestor, what is it"

"I...I am heavy! And hungry! And I have to relieve myself but the
thought of actually having to Move right now to do so just...well, the
mere thought makes my back hurt!"

The seneschal nodded his understanding "I will get the..."

"Nay! I will not lay here in bed and relieve myself in that thing! It
is humiliating!"

"I could carry you to the privy"

*Sniffle* "Aye...aye Findel would you saes?"

As Glorfindel picked him up and made his way to the privy, Erestor
wiped his eyes "How did you manage to walk about when you reached this
size"

"Oh my lovely Rabbit, you need to take into consideration that I am
larger then you...and a warrior...my body was and is used to more
physical...ow!...ow!...ow! Erestor let go of my ear!"

"Then bring it closer! I want to nibble on it!"

"Erestor!"

"What! I want it!"

Glorfindel snorted as he placed his love on his feet "Let go of my ear
now Rabbit and relieve yourself"

Out in the main chamber, Torfindel shook his head "Adar is after Ada's
ears again"

Taurath chuckled as he took his loves hand and pulled "Quickly, let us
get to morning meal before he goes for our ears!"

~*~*~

Elrond smiled as Torfindel and Taurath rushed to their seats "Good
morning you two. You are here a bit early?"

Thranduil smirked as he leaned forward "Fleeing your Adar?"

"Gwee! He is after Ada's ears again! Oh, and a slight warning...I
would Not say "good morning" to Adar when he arrives"

Elrond sat back and nodded "Warning taken. I remember the last time I
did not heed one of your "Adar warnings", he dumped a full bottle of
milk over my head"

Just then, Everyone turned as Glorfindel cleared his throat "Good mor..."

*Grrrrowl*

The seneschal rolled his eyes and started over "Tis good to see you
all this morning"

Haldir chuckled, then gasped as Erestor grabbed his ear "What is so
Funny you Lorien elfling!"

"Oooww! tsss nothing...nothing Erestor"

Releasing his ear, Erestor grabbed the large bowl of leaves that had
been prepared for him and pouted "I do not want to sit...when I sit, I
cannot get back up. Now that I am already standing and moving, my
humongous belly and I are going for a walk"

When Glorfindel made to stand, Erestor shook his head "Nay Findel. I
want to walk alone with my belly, besides, you have new recruits to
train this morning"

"As you wish my dark Rabbit. Do be careful though"

When Erestor finally left the room, everyone looked to Glorfindel and
the warrior sighed "Aye, I know. He is rather moody...oh and sorry
about your ear Haldir, he seems to go for the ears at this time"

Melpomaen sighed as he leaned forward "Are you alright Glorfindel I
worry Erestor is rather emotional and you are alone with him a great
deal and..."

Torfindel arched his brow "Hold on there, Taur and I are there as
well. Ada is not facing Adar alone"

The young adviser smiled "You are not his mate Gwee Glorfindel is tell
me Findel he still will not allow others to touch him does he still
allow your touch?"

The seneschal nodded "Aye. He still craves my touch. There are times
when he is simply content to be in the same room as I am. He has come
to my office in the barracks and just reads...he said he likes to be
near me"

Vel and Ron smiled as they looked up from their food ""That is because
you are his warrior, he feels safe with you""

Glorfindel chuckled as he shook his head "And to think, when we were
first bound, he was terrified of me"

~*~*~

Erestor slowly made his way to the Bruinen, then began to walk
downstream. Loosing himself in his thoughts, the dark adviser found
himself in a rather remote area. Looking around, his lower lip wibbled
as he rubbed his belly "Oh wonderful, now I am alone, fat and
tired...Valar, how far did I walk!"

Deciding it was best not to stray further, Erestor sat down under a
large oak and wiped his eyes as he thought 'I best stay where I am, it
will make it easier for Findel to find me'

Not long after he sat down, Erestor heard the sound of a horse
approaching. Getting to his feet, he stepped out from behind the tree,
then gasped "Oh!"

Skidding to a halt, the massive horse snorted and the rider yelled
"Aiyah! Careful little one!"

The dark adviser took a step back, then wrapped his arms protectively
around his belly as the rider dismounted "Did you not hear me coming
little one? You should be more careful"

Erestor quietly took another step back from the massive stranger "I
thought you...you were my mate, come to retrieve me"

The stranger smiled as he took another step closer "Why do you recoil
little one? I mean you no harm"

"I...I know you not and..."

"Tul now, your kin are searching for you and I would take you to
them...tul now little one, come to me"

Erestor slowly shook his head "Na...nay...I will not. My mate will
find me soon and..."

"Glorfindel is heading Up the river"

Erestor lowered his head as he worried his brow "I will wait here,
besides, I should not ride a horse"

The stranger narrowed his eyes "Erestor of Imladris, you are to far out
to walk...you are tired...and hungry. You are an elf of knowledge, not
hunting...and you are unarmed. You should be back at the Homely House
resting. Look at me little one, I can return you safely...and my
companion will carry you with all the gentleness he possesses.
Besides, I will make sure the ride does not harm the life within you"

Erestor furrowed his brow "Wh...who are you"

The stranger smiled from ear to ear "I am Orome, and this is my
companion Nahar"
