Notes: Part 1. Enter, the Lorien brothers. Well two of them anyway. Orophin probably won’t play a very big part. At least I don’t have one for him yet, but as I said, suggestions are welcome. Oh, and the twins are back as well, with their questionable sense of humor… v_v;

Part I. Reunited Friends

Erestor was working as quickly as possible on the scrolls in front of him, nervously glancing out the large library windows. He was going to be late to meet the Lorien delegation, he just knew it. But, if he didn’t finish now now, he would have to finish it later that evening, and he wanted to spend that time with Legolas.

So, despite the fact that it was highly uncharacteristic of the councilor, he was going to be late. Of course, in his mind, spending time with Legolas that evening was well worth the effort.

With a final flourish of the quill, Erestor shut the book and put away the parchments, brushed his hair back into some semblance of order and rushed out to the courtyard where much of the staff and citizens were already waiting.

He crept silently up and squeezed himself into place beside Elrond and Glorfindel, both of whom looked at him askance. He simply flushed a bit and turned his attention to the approaching party who was even now entering Imladris’ stately courtyard.

The twins and Legolas stood on Elrond’s other side and had watched Erestor’s hasty entrance. Legolas had seen the entire scenario and smirked a little at Erestor, whose cheeks reddened to a lovely red hue at the suggestive curl of his lovers lips. He could tell Legolas knew exactly why he had been late and was telling him with his eyes that he would reward his efforts well later.

The party of Lorien elves quickly dismounted, handing their horses over to stable hands before facing Elrond and those around him. The leader stepped forward in greeting. It was none other than the Marchwarden of Lorien.

Haldir smiled graciously at his hosts and bowed his head lightly. “My Lords.”

“Haldir of Lorien, well met.” Elrond responded with a smile.

“My Lord and Lady beg forgiveness that they were unable to attend, but they had some business to finish up in Lothlorien.”

Elrond grinned. “No apologies needed. I, myself, know full well the demands a kingdom can make upon its leaders. Welcome all of you. I hope you will makurseurselves at home here for the length of your stay. My staff will show you to your rooms upon entrance to the halls. Now, I know some of you are eager to make the acquaintance of old friends.” Elrond stared disapprovingly at his sons and Legolas who were trying to catch Rumil’s attention. They smiled apologetically, but Elrond could tell they didn’t really mean it. He sighed exasperated muttering about “young ones” before turning to reenter the Last Homely House.

As soon as he was away the twins and Legolas descended upon Rumil with vigor.

“Rumil my friend, how are you? It’s been ages.” Legolas asked as he gave his friend a big hug.

“Aye, it’s been much too long ‘Las. The Golden Woods have missed your bright presence these last years.” Rumil tactfully kept quiet about the fact that it was more than just the woods that missed his friend’s presence.

“Yes, well my father has been keeping me underfoot these past years. Mirkwood had need of me. It will probably be a big sacrifice risking it by sending his best warriors to this competition, but you know my father. There’s no way he’d let second best do in a contest between realms.”

Rumil nodded with a grin. “Obviously since his best archer is already here.”

“Yes, well, it was more than just the competition that brought me here,” Legolas said suggestively.

“Oi, ‘Las! Stop hogging the elf, it’s our turn!” Elrohir said, shoving a laughing Legolas away from Rumil. The twins descended on their friend with a big hug between them.

“Aiya! You two, I’m not the filling in a sandw” Ru” Rumil scolded, though the smile on his face and mischief in his eyes belied the fact that he wasn’t really angry at them.

“Really? But you’d make such a nice meal.” Elladan said suggestively, earning him a shove from his friend.

Erestor had not followed Elrond into the halls, but stayed and watched Legolas with his young friends. Despite Legolas’ assurances he couldn’t help feel the bite of jealousy seeing him hug Rumil. Rumil and his brothers were everything the advisor wasn’t. Fair where he was dark, young where he was old, and they were undoubtedly beautiful. Erestor saw Legolas and his playful relationship with the twins and Rumil and wished in some fashion he could have that kind of easiness and playfulness with the prince. But, he couldn’t and wouldn’t try to be something he wasn’t. He knew Legolas loved him for who he was now, but Erestor couldn’t shake the feeling that the youthful and vibrant prince deserved better than he. Someone younger and more athletic. Someone more like the prince. Someone like Rumil. Erestor turned away from the reunited friends and hurried into the house. He had some work to finish up before he was free, and there was that evening to look forward to when he’d have Legolas to himself.

Erestor had been so intent on watching Legolas and his friends that he missed the baleful glare being sent his way by a pair of blue-green eyes. Or, more pointedly the stare his chest was receiving. For in his haste he had forgotten to tuck the blue stone in his robes as he usually did.

t.b.c…

Notes: I think I am going to grow rather fond of Rumil. He is one of my favorite of the brothers. Well, I love Haldir too, but seeing as he’s going to be the, I hesitate to say villain cause he’s not really bad per say, in the story. Ack, I know, the chapters seem to be so short lately. But that’s the price you pay for fast updates. Especially when unceuncertain where I’m taking this. I’ll make it up to you later though, I swear. XD And thanks again for all the lovely reviews. It feeds my muse and makes her work harder. She’s been slacking lately.

Oh and Haldir doesn't really make another appearance until part 3. =) But it should be a grande entrance to be sure.

Feedback=food for the soul

Review Responses:

Sian: Here, to feed your addiction! XD Yes, Haldir will be the old lover. Ooh, a possessive Erestor, that gives me some interesting ideas. *grins wickedly*

Minuial nuwing: heh. You will find I like writing snuggle scenes. Even more than sex scenes. I think I'm better at it. =3 Well, I wouldn't be the one trying to take Legolas away from Erestor, now, would I. *snickers* Oh no! Not the puppy dog eyes! *can't resist* Honestly, I have no clue how it's going to work out in the end. But it should be a happy ending, well, at least for two of the three elves. X3

erobey: Glad your loving it. XD

BernsteinNixe: Yes, Jealous elves are so much fun to play with. It seems to be a recurring theme in my stories. XD There will be plenty of Rumil and Haldir. Not sure what I'll do with Orophin yet, though.

sivan: ME, perfect? *laughs* I wish. Though I'm glad someone else thinks so. *G* That wasn't so long a wait, now was it.

Talia: I better get to feeding it then, now shouldn't I. I don't want to lose my faithful reviewers. XD As for how it will unravel, I can't wait to find out either. I'm sort of playing by ear at the moment. Glad I've given them good chemistry. You know what they say, opposites attract. XD

SnakeMistress: Always happy to get new readers. Thanks for the e-mails. Why would I destoy them? I'm having much to fun playing with them to do that. XD What I am going to try and convey through the story is that Haldir ISN'T a bad bad elf. He's just disillusionedove ove and Jealousy can do funny things to a person. I can't really blame him either. *drools over the pretty elves*

Twilight: You got it right in the bag! You see, he didn't really think of Haldir as special. He may have cared for him, but not loved him. He was just another lover among his throng of followers. The love is for the most part one sided. Besides, one doesn't go listing off their ex lovers to the person they are currently seeing. Especially since Legolas has had so many over the years. And now you know one of the reasons Erestor is so paranoid about their relationship. He's afraid Legolas will come to realize he would want to return to that kind of life, or that he will tire of him. And you forgot to mention the Rivendell elves. Yes, three realms full of exes, poor Erestor.
