Forbidden Falls


Ch37

The next morning, Haldir arrived in the courtyard. The march warden could tell that no one was up yet and just took his time and looked around and smiled at the beauty that surrounded him...he love Imladris in the hours before the sun peeked over the horizon...the water from the waterfalls caused a magical mist to cover the land and the Lorien warrior found himself sitting at the base of the statue of Gil-Galad, just enjoying the silence.


After a few moments, Haldir heard the distinctive sound of arrows hitting a target and decided to see who may be up so early. As he neared the archery paddock, he crept behind a tree and peeked at the early risen archer and lost his breath and thought 'Valar, he...he is...beyond...' The warrior blinked from his thoughts and watched as the blond archer slowly drew back, then released and hit dead center.


Haldir griped his heart as he watched the blond archer shake out his hair, flip it back, and pull it into a long loose tail. The march warden took a deep breath and thought 'I have been coming to Imladris for...Valar, I have forgotten how long...how could I have missed this fair treasure, I must introduce myself'


Haldir began to asses the elf 'He is obviously a warrior...tho there is something about him that is...diffrent. Well, no chances taken, nothing gained'


The march warden decided the direct approach would be best and slowly walked up behind the blond. Before he had a chance to speak, the archer pulled back on his bow, then spun, and Haldir found himself with an arrowhead touching the hollow of his throat. The blond archer tilted his head and furrowed his brow "What"


Haldir blinked and slowly raised his hands in defeat "Mae Govannen, I an Haldir of Lorien. I saw you practicing and realized that I had never met you before, and I thought I would just say fair morning Valarmir"


Realizing that at this time, this elf was not a threat, the archer lowered his bow "I have heard of you, though you are correct, we have never met...wait...what...what did you call me?"


Haldir smiled and moved slightly closer "Valarmir...for only the Valar could have created a jewel as beautiful and as rare as you"


The archer dropped his jaw and took a half step back "Back away from me"


Haldir again, moved a little closer and the blond archer furrowed his brow with a low warning growl "I said back away"


Haldir smiled kindly, lightly tilted his head and took a step back "I apologize, it is just that finding one so fair has made my mind turn to porridge, saes, may I learn your name?"


The archer shook his head, then furrowed his brow as Haldir smiled and inched his was closer. The blond then suddenly gasped as he found himself tightly embraced with the wardens lips on his.


Within seconds of contact, Haldir found himself laying flat on his back and in great pain. As he shook his head to clear the punch to his jaw, he blinked as he watched the archer storm off toward the Homely House and caught the tail end of his angered mumbling "...touch me!"


Haldir sighed as he got to his feet...a light smile gracing his lips as he thought 'By the blessed Valar...I am in love'


Elrond stood on the stone steps at the main entrance and watched as the angry elf passed him by without a word. The elven lords attention turned back as he heard his name and arched his brow "Mae govannen Haldir...your bleeding"


The warden lightly bowed and smiled "Mae govannen. Ai my lord, though it was worth it, I...I am in love"


Elrond smiled "How wonderful! You have finally found someone? Who is the lucky elf"


Haldir pointed "I know not his name, he just passed you though. The blond archer, saes, what is his name my lord"


Elronds eyes widened and his jaw dropped as he shook his head "What did you do to him Haldir"


The march warden smiled I just gave him a kiss"


The elven lord blanched and then groaned as he pinched the bridge of his nose "Oh Haldir...how is it that you are able to arrive here, and only moments later, place yourself in more trouble by accident, then my own sons can accomplish when they actually plan it. I am surprised that you were not injured more"


Haldir frowned and let out a long sigh "Don't tell me...he is bound" The march warden the turned, crossed his arms and whispered "I should never had hoped"


Elrond worried his brow at the warriors tone "Haldir? Valar penneth...you...you are...you have fallen hard" The elven lord then closed his eyes and concentrated. After he opened them, he placed his hand on the warriors shoulder "And this love is true"


Haldir sighed as he nodded "I have never seen one so fair...and he is figsty to add. A combination that is perfect to my eyes...if he is halfly intelligent as well I..." Haldir then shook his head "...it matters not, forgive me my lord, I do not mean to subject you to the sorrowful rambling of a lonely elf...Do I have the same chamber as my last stay?"


Elrond sighed, but allowed the subject change "Nai Haldir...you will be attending morning meal?"


Haldir polightly bowed "Nai my lord...will Elladan and Elrohir be there?"


Elrond nodded and smiled "Of course, they are eager to see you"


As haldir walked away, Erestor walked close "What are you going to do my lord"


Elrond turned and wrapped his arms around his love "Erestor melanin, you called me my lord, and we do not start our duty's until after morning meal...I fear I am going to have to spank you until you cry"


Erestor arched his brow and whispered "My lord, my lord, my lord, my lord"


Elrond let out a loud laugh "You are incorrigible!"


The elven lord then sobered "In all seriousness...how are you feeling this morn, I was rather rough last night"


Erestor sighed as he caressed Elronds cheek "My pet could not have pleased me more"
