Two Too Much to Handle?

Disclaimer: (In the spirit of Crimson Starlight)

Shana: *crawls into room, collapses on futon*

'Dan and 'Ro: *look up from other futon where they had been whispering together*

'Dan: Uh oh.

'Ro: Not good.

Glorfindel: *struts in, BIG smile on face. Stops short when he sees Shana collapsed on futon* WTF???

Shana: *totally oblivious, occasionally twitching in her stupor*

Glorfindel: *turns to twins* What happened? *gesturing toward Shana* Did you two have something to do with this?

Janessa: *catches tail-end of conversation as she comes in, walking rather oddly* No they didn't. They're mine. Right guys?

'Dan and 'Ro: *nod profusely, grinning like madmen*

Glorfindel: *concerned, sits down on futon, and brushes hair away from Shana's face*

Shana: *eyes flutter open, recognition shining within, moves to climb into Glory's lap*

Glorfindel: *helps Shana onto his lap*

Shana: *clutches tightly to Glory's shirt, burying her face in his neck*

Jan: You might want to talk to them. *jerks thumb over her shoulder in the direction she'd just come as Haldir walks in*

Hal: *drops smug look as he spots Shana in Glory's lap*

Glorfindel: *growls* What did you do to her?

Haldir: *opens mouth to speak only to be stayed by Jan's hand on his arm*

Janessa: *to Hal* Perhaps discretion is the better part of valor in this case?

Glorfindel: *frowns*

Janessa: I suggest we run? *turns tail*

Haldir: *finally registers the look of controlled rage on Glory's face* Wait for me! *follows Jan out*

Tal and Ali: *barely get out of way as Hal and Jan go sprinting by*

Tal: Wouldja look at that?

Ali: *staring openly at Hal's retreating ass* Oh, believe me I AM.

Tal: *elbows Ali*

Ali: *rubs ribs* What?

Tal: *catches sight of Glory and Shana* That would explain it.

Ali: *blinks* What?

Tal: *points*

Ali: Ooooooohhhh. Oh dear. Shanastay owns nothing recognizable as Tolkein's. Her original characters are just that, hers. Jesse is most definitely hers.

Tal: This is gonna be bad.

Ali: Agreed.

Chapter 6: Reaffirmation

Jan barely made it to the bed before she collapsed, sobs wracking her body. She was out of control and she knew it, but she just couldn't seem to rein herself in.

Why did I do that? They came back. Actually, no. They never left. They were hiding somewhere. Why were they hiding? Were they trying to sneak out when Glorfindel arrived?

Recognizing her paranoia for what it was Jan was slowly able to calm herself. Wiping her face on her sleeve, the redhead shakily stood and made her way to the door. She unlocked the portal, turning to drop down into a nearby wing-backed chair, drawing her feet up under her.

*******

On the other side of the door the twins were alternately berating themselves and each other.

"We left her," Elladan pointed out.

"No, we were in the bathing room," Elrohir countered. "There's a difference."

"The end result was the same," Elladan argued. "She woke up alone, therefore we left."

"But if we explain…"

Elladan cut his twin off with a wave of his hand. "Consider this brother. You are of an 'inferior' race, suddenly finding yourself the focus of attention of two of a 'superior' race…"

Elrohir made to protest the implication that Janessa was "inferior."

"Let me finish. This is not MY opinion. Consider our reputations with both women and ellyn. How did Jan put it? 'Love 'em and leave 'em heartbreakers.'"

Elrohir conceded his brother's point.

"So put yourself in her place. She severed her link with Legolas for whatever reason. She's never fully discussed it with us. She hasn't courted ANYONE since she's been here, what two years? And by her own admission she was alone for four more years prior to that."

"I'm following you, but I don't think I like where you are leading me," Elrohir acknowledged.

"Take all of that and add to it what she must view as her 'weakness' in giving in to us only to find us gone come morning."

"Alright, your point is made. She's pissed at us and justifiably so. Now the question is what do we do about it?"

The sound of the bedroom door unlocking drew both elves gazes to the portal. Elrohir made it there first, rushing through the doorway only to pull up short.

Elladan was following his sibling closely and ran right into Elrohir when the younger twin halted.

Jan couldn't help but chuckle as she watched Elrohir turn on his brother, giving Elladan an annoyed shove.

The paired elves caught the sound of Janessa's mirth and decided to go with it, escalating their behavior from a shoving match to all-out wrestling. It was only once they had grappled each other to the ground and Jan was doubled over with laughter that they desisted.

Seeing Elrond's twins actively trying to subdue each other was arguably one of the funniest tableaus Jan had ever witnessed. There was nothing quite like watching two identical half-naked elves clad only in loose leggings wrestle. Her anger quickly fled before the two's playful antics.

Assured that Jan was no longer upset with them, the twins disentangled and converged on her, looking every inch the predators they were as they stalked closer.

Janessa swallowed her laughter, eyes widening as she watched their approach, eyes darting from one twin to the other. The twins stalked toward the redhead, eyeing her as they would a savory meal or a particularly delectable treat, which she suddenly realized was exactly how they saw her. Their behavior of the previous night took on a whole new dimension.

She had heard that they were talented lovers, but last night… Talented didn't cover the experience. They had lavished her with affection and attention the likes of which she had never previously known. Clearly it had been more than just a one-night-stand. How wrong she had been to doubt them.

Her eyes kept flickering from one to the other, drinking in their utter uniqueness. These incredible, otherworldly beings cared for HER, no one else. Just her. It was a gift. An incredible gift. One she was not sure she actually deserved.

Pushing her self-doubt aside, Janessa considered the twins as they stood one on each side of her. For all their similarities she could tell them apart with ease. From the first time she'd met them, that fact had driven the two crazy. The place-switching pranks they played on everyone else never seemed to work with Jan. She somehow knew who was who even when they were trying to be the other. She claimed it was just easy to tell them apart.

With lightning fast reflexes the two elves moved as one, each taking hold of one of Janessa's arms. They hauled her to her feet, turning to sandwich her between their half-naked bodies. She faced Elladan, Elrohir at her back.

The woman gasped at the sudden movement, stiffening slightly as she was trapped between them. Unsure of their intentions she stayed wary, waiting for their next move. She inhaled audibly as Elladan pressed forward, pushing her back against his younger twin. Their presence alone held her in place, neither one touching her.

In unison the pair leaned in to the woman, bringing their lips near her ears. Jan held still, waiting. Elladan spoke first, his voice a whisper, his warm breath tickling her hair.

"Did you really…"

"…believe we left?" Elrohir finished teasingly, drawing the tip of his tongue up the curve of her ear.

The redhead shuddered as Elladan began peppering light kisses along her neck. Elrohir fixed his attention upon her ear and moved from tracing the outer edge to nibbling on the lobe. Her eyes closed at their touch, the sensations sweeping over her. Those were the only two points where they were touching her and the tension was driving her mad. She reached forward with her right hand and back with her left, trying to draw the twins closer.

The raven-haired pair easily evaded her questing limbs, their laugher lifting through the air. Jan suddenly felt her robe fall open, Elladan's nimble fingers having undone the knot without her even noticing. She brought her hands up, moving to close the fabric only to have her wrists captured from behind and held at her sides. The redhead's eyes snapped open to gaze into smoldering platinum pools.

"We know you thought we left," Elladan whispered conspiratorially.

Elrohir chimed in, "But we did not. We did not mean…"

"…to cause you distress. Let us…" Elladan continued.

"…make it up to you." Elrohir finished.

Elrohir had pinned Janessa's arms to her sides, preventing her from touching either one of them. The younger twin then began kissing his way down the other side of her neck and along her shoulder. Still lavishing her skin with attention Elrohir released her wrists but kept them pinned to her sides, using the pressure of his arms against them as he slid his hands down over her hips to her thighs, pulling her flush against him, his desire more than evident.

Elladan lifted his hands to frame the woman's face, capturing her low moan as he slowly and thoroughly explored her mouth. The elder twin stepped forward, melding his frame to hers, only the light fabric of his leggings separating them. Never breaking the kiss, 'Dan slid his hands from her face to the lapels of her robe, drawing the fabric down her arms.

'Ro released her long enough for the material to drop to the ground in a silken puddle. He held tight to her again, grinding his hips against her backside.

Janessa lost herself in the heady sensations the twins were eliciting. She completely forgot why she had been upset with them, the duo effectively driving all coherent thought from her mind.

'Dan tapped his fingers against 'Ro's upper arms, the younger twin releasing the woman in response. Elladan relinquished Janessa's mouth, bending down to sweep her legs from under her, one arm about her back, the other under her knees.

Jan yelped as she was unceremoniously swept off her feet. Indignant, she squirmed in the elder twin's grasp.

The redhead's efforts only served to turn the two elves on even more. They laughed lightly as 'Dan held her tighter to his chest, refusing to let her go. Pouting, she finally settled down and allowed herself to be carried to her private bathing room.

Elrond had insisted Janessa have a suite of rooms with an adjoining private bath, while she had protested repeatedly that all she needed was a small room with a bed, a table and a chair. She would use the communal bathing chambers. She'd just have to time her use for when no one else was there.

The Imladrin Lord understood better than Janessa did the human need for privacy and refused to hear her objections. The ancient half-elf had been more than kind to her, accepting her into his household without question and allowing her to stay even after the rather disastrous demise of her relationship with Legolas.

The bathing room was dominated by a sunken oblong pool in the center. A cleverly designed plumbing system kept water from the local hot springs cycling continuously through the pool, providing a never-ending source of hot water. A light mist rose off the surface of the clear water, giving the room a sultry air of mystery. The sunken reservoir just held four elves comfortably.

For this room alone Janessa could never repay Elrond. After hours of toil under Glorfindel's tutelage nothing helped soothe her muscles like a long soak in the mineral-enriched water.

Elladan paused for a moment while Elrohir shed his leggings and stepped down into the pool. The elder twin carefully bent and passed the redhead to his brother before slipping out of his attire.

Elrohir took the woman from his elder twin, holding her close to his chest as he stepped down into the heated liquid, the water rising up over his hips. The younger twin sat down on the ledge carved into the sides of the oval, submerging himself and Janessa up to their shoulders.

Jan released a sigh as the soothing heat encompassed her sore form. She sat crosswise to Elrohir, still in the elf's lap. She curled up against the younger twin's chest, her left hand on her thigh, her right splayed across his pectoral. Her eyes closed as Elrohir's hands began caressing her skin.

Elrohir brought his right hand to her back, gently kneading tense muscles as he found them. His other hand roamed freely, moving up from her ankles, over her knees to delve between her thighs. The elf dipped his chin, nudging her forehead. When she looked up he captured her lips, moving his hand to the apex of her thighs. 'Ro caught her gasp with his mouth as he slid first one finger, then two into her folds, his thumb pressing against her sensitive nub.

Elladan sat on the edge of the pool, a small vial of oil in one hand that he'd retrieved from a shelf by the entrance. 'Dan uncapped the vessel, pouring a small amount of liquid into one hand before putting it aside. Elladan proceeded to stroke himself as he watched his younger twin tease the redhead. His pace increased as she began to writhe in Elrohir's lap, riding the younger twin's hand. The elder twin stilled his movements as Janessa moaned her release. The elf slid into the heated water, settling himself on the ledge opposite 'Ro.

Once Janessa ceased trembling, Elrohir let his elder twin take her. He reached past the pair to retrieve the vial of oil as Elladan situated the woman so she straddled the elder elf's thighs. 'Ro pulled himself up onto the pool's edge, copying his twin's earlier actions. The younger elf caught his breath as he watched Elladan lift Jan and impale her on the elder's throbbing length.

Elrohir's eyes took in the sight of Janessa in his brother's arms, head thrown back, her red hair fanned out behind her, hands on 'Dan's shoulders, the elder twin's lips fastened around one pierced nipple as the woman was slowly lifted and dropped along Elladan's arousal.

Jan moaned continuously as she was first pleasured by Elrohir and now rode Elladan, her senses near overload. She could feel 'Ro watching them as 'Dan lavished first one nipple, then the other with fervent attention. She found herself grateful for the elves' seemingly endless strength and stamina as she had not the energy to participate as fully as she would have liked. Completely and utterly undone, she gave herself over to the sensations 'Dan was eliciting from her. The fact that 'Ro was so blatantly watching and playing with himself made it all the more erotic.

Deciding he couldn't just watch any longer, 'Ro slid into the warm pool, moving to stand behind Janessa. 'Dan, seeing his twin re-enter the water, instinctively knew what the other intended. The elder twin stilled his movements, holding the redhead impaled on his throbbing length as he shifted down in the water. Only his head remained above the waterline, his backside now resting on the edge of the submerged ledge. 'Dan gripped the confused woman by her long hair and pulled her down to him for a scorching kiss.

As her mouth was thoroughly plundered by Elladan, Janessa felt Elrohir move up behind her. She suddenly realized his intention as, straddling her, his knees came to rest on the outside of hers, the head of his raging arousal nudging her rear entrance. Despite having already taken them both simultaneously the woman stiffened in the elves' arms at what she still considered a daunting prospect.

Instantly realizing the cause of their lover's sudden discomfort, the twins bent their heads to her ears, whispering encouragingly, reminding her they had not, and would not hurt her. Captive between the two elves Janessa relaxed the warm waters and their sincere assurances winning over her momentary trepidation.

Feeling the tension flee the redhead's form Elladan placed one hand on her lower back, the other on one hip while Elrohir braced himself, one hand on her other hip, the other hand grasping the edge of the pool by 'Dan's head.

Holding the woman still, 'Ro nudged her cheeks apart, the blunt head of his now impossibly hard arousal pressing against her puckered opening. As gently as possible, the younger twin pushed forward, the head of his oiled elfhood breaching the tight ring of muscle. With an audible groan 'Ro sank his entire length in her passage. Both elves fully sheathed in her heat, the two remained still for several beats, giving the woman's body time to adjust to the invasion.

When Janessa began to squirm between them, the twins responded, moving in earnest, thrusting into her heated depths with wanton abandon. Having no control whatsoever over the situation all Janessa could do was cry out as she was completely filled by the duo. She clung to Elladan's shoulders as the twins moved as one unit, driving their lengths inside her and withdrawing.

Utterly overwhelmed, the redhead's vision swam as she was assaulted by wave after wave of sensation. Jan was simply along for the ride, the twins swiftly driving her closer and closer to the pinnacle. Stars exploded behind the woman's eyes as 'Dan moved his hand from her lower back to where their bodies joined, the pad of his thumb rubbing her clit in fast circles.

The sensory onslaught proved too much for the overwrought redhead as, voice gone, she mutely announced her completion, her body wracked by tremors, her convulsing muscles taking her twin lovers over the edge with her, their matched howls reverberating through the chamber. So intense was Janessa's climax that she momentarily lost consciousness, blacking out as her body shuddered, pushed to the extremes of her endurance. Going limp in the twins' arms, the woman fell forward against Elladan, Elrohir collapsing against her back.
