Words and Actions
"Does Celeborn know you are in Mirkwood?"
Heidi paused in mid bite and considered the question. "Well I suppose Arwen has told him by now."
"He didn't know you were coming?" Legolas was agast.
"No not really. He has avo avoiding me ever since you left." Heidi confessed.
"Why?" Thranduil asked concerned.
Heidi laid her fork down and sighed. "Me and Denise went to Gondor alone, no guards. We were attacked by some unsavory men. That is after we had been healed from a bout with Orcs."
Thranduil nodded "Legolas did tell me all this. But He will come looking for you."
"I know. But Denise needed to come here. I could not let her travel alone." Heidi admitted.
Denise blushed a nice scarlet red and said nothing.
"Legolas told me about how you came to be in Middle Earth and about your heritage." Thranduil changed the topic.
"And you believe the story?" Denise sounded shocked.
"Of course why wouldn't I? "
"it is hard to believe isn't it? I mean magickal barriers and such." Denise asked.
"I have seen such a barrier before. Else I would have thought my son mad." Thranduil smiled.
They talked all through out dinner and dessert. The talk changed to plans for Denise and Legolas's bonding day. Which was a few days away, as by then Celeborn would have ca up up with them.
~*~*~*~*~*~*
Celeborn and his sons had ridden hard all night long. They paused for rest and refreshment in Lorien and found that the ladies had not stopped there. Sighing Celeborn decided to keep riding so he mounted a fresh horse as did Rumil and Haldir. Celeborn asked Orophin to please stay behind in case the women came back. They rode hard long into the night untill the reached the borders of Mirkwood. The camped just outside the woods and Haldir took first watch. Celeborn laid down and tried to sleep but his heart ached for his beloved.
~*~*~*~*~*
Heidi lay awake in bed all night long unable to sleep. She twisted the ring on her finger round and round in an effort to distract herself. But it was useless she ached for him both body and soul. She needed him. Heidi curled up and cried herself to sleep.
~*~*~*~*
Denise lay curled up in Legolas's arms, they could both here the soft sobs coming from Heidi's chamber.
"I feel so sorry for her, She hurts so much and I cannot help." Denise sighed sadly.
Legolas nodded and rubbed her back. "I know we did not really get along but I do feel sorry for her. But I cannot honestly think Celeborn could aviod her."
"He was."
"Unless..." Legolas sighed.
"Unless?" Denise prodded.
"When he gets into planning for something he becomes a bit of an insomniac and won't sleep. If it is serious he tends to forget his family for awhile. It is his way."
"So he may not be avoiding her but still it would hurt." Denise insisted.
"I know. I am not excusing him but..."Legolas trailed off as the sobs in the other room subsided.
"She fell asleep..." Denise sighed and kissed Legolas softly on the cheek.
They difted off into reverie together,
