The Fire Dance





Ch6



The next morning......

Thranduils eyes slowly came into focus. Looking around the room, the
Mirkwood king stretched, then furrowed his brow in thought 'This is
not my guest chamber...this room is lived in...very lived in'. size="+1">




Turning his head to his left, he swallowed hard when he saw the naked
body sleeping next to him 'Elrond...nay I...Oh Valar what have I done!'.

Elrond remained perfectly motionless, still on his stomach and facing
away, his eyes had been completely focused for the last half hour, and
he could feel the bed trembling from his friend who was now fully awake.

The elven lord thought back to what had happened. His memory slightly
muttled but one thing he did remember, was that Thranduil had been
gentle...he did not hold him down, handle him roughly or speak cruel
words...he had kissed, licked, massaged, caressed, nibbled and then
called his name out upon his release.

Even now, Elrond could feel a sense of love through the confusion
flowing through him from the encounter and decided to take the risk.

Remaining as he was, he softly whispered "I am awake Thran" then felt
the bed lightly shake from his obviously startled friend.

There was silence for a moment, and then Elrond heard a pained and
fearful whisper "Are...are you alright? Did I...did I hu...hurt you?".

The elven lord slowly turned his head to look at his old friend and was
taken aback when he saw heavy tears flowing from his eyes, his lip
quivering, and trembling breaths raking over his body "El...Elrond?
Saes, answer me...are you hurt? Did I hurt you?".

Elrond silently reached behind himself, gently explored his hidden
entrance, repositioned himself on his side, arched his brow when he
noticed blood on his finger, then looked over at Thranduil "Your
bleeding? Oh Elrond I am so sorry! Saes...forgive me! I...I am so
sorry!"

Seeing the full blown panic unfolding before him, Elrond furrowed his
brow at his friends reaction, then noticed Thranduils eyes dim a
little. Suddenly realizing why his was reacting this way, Elrond
quickly pulled him into his arms "Thran! Thran you did Not rape me!
Calm down! Thran!"

The Mirkwood king fought the embrace and choked hysterically "Oh Elrond
I am so sorry that I made you bleed!"

Knowing no other way to get his attention, Elrond swiftly reached up,
grabbed the tip of Thranduils ear, dug his nail into the tender flesh
and twisted it sharply "Thran!"

The Mirkwood king instantly froze and Elrond looked him in the eye.....

"Can you hear me?"

"A...aye"

"Are you paying attention?"

"Aye"

"Are you going to shut up and listen?"

"Aye Elrond"

Still keeping hold of Thranduils ear, the elven lord sighed "I am not
hurt. The blood you saw was dry Not fresh. Whatever tarring may have
occurred, it has already healed, and since I am half elven and do not
heal as quickly as say...you...then that should be an indication of how
minor the tare must have been".

Elrond then scooted closer.....

"Do you hear me?"

"Aye"

"Are you still paying attention?"

"Aye Elrond"

"Good...now listen...You-Did-Not-Rape-Me...now repeat what I said"

Thranduil swallowed hard and whispered back "I did not rape you".

Elrond slowly released his ear and settled back down onto his side "I
may have been drunk Thran, but I do remember what happened. Being half
elven, my equilibrium may have been very off...but my mind was still
aware. At no time did I tell you nay...or daro. You were very gentle
and...and what you did felt...well, in all honesty it felt odd at
first, but then it felt quite pleasurable. I do not believe I have ever
felt anything so fulfilling, and when you spilled your seed within me
and called out my name...it was blissful".

Thranduil took a deep breath, reached out to caress Elronds arm, then
sighed relieved when his friend did not pull away "I...I am sure that I
was no different then any of the warriors you have been with. I do
remember you telling me once that when you were on patrol, you
shared...time...with your fellows".

Elrond smiled and arched his brow "They were always on the receiving
end Thran, you are the first to have been within me".

Thranduil blinked concerned and moved a little closer "I...I do recall
you saying "wait", are you sure now...are you sure I did not
fo...force..."

Elrond shook his head and propped himself up on his elbow "You flipped
all my hair into my face, I was going to ask for you to help me move
it, I wished to see who was behind me, but then you entered and at that
point I did not care who was having at me...I...I was actually just
grateful for the attention and affection".

Thranduil frowned "Grateful for the attention and affection? Elrond,
you are the lord here, you may have...companionship...whenever you
desire it".

The elven lord sighed as he flopped down onto his back "I am not like
you Thran...I am not as aggressive as you are with such things".

Elrond then arched his brow when the Mirkwood king reached over and
gently caressed his torso as he absently commented "I know that Elrond,
you are a passive warrior...gentle, kind, generous, reserved..."
Thranduil then lightly chuckled, "Until someone angers you or harms
someone or something you care about, then you become quite
frightning...tis a rather enjoyable mixture".

Elrond blinked with surprise at his friends comment, then grasped his
hand "Thran...was this just a drunken bedding, or do you...do you wish
for something more".

The Mirkwood king swallowed hard, then sighed nervously "In all honesty
Elrond, I would like to be...err...more then just friends...I have for
some time".

"Kiss me"

"Do not tease me Elrond"

The elven lord narrowed his eyes, sat up, then shoved Thranduil down
"Tease you? Now you listen to me you stubborn wood elf...I have wanted
those dammed lips of yours on me since before I bonded with Cebebrian!
Do you have Any idea how happy I was to find out that it was You having
at me last night? How I then worried upon waking this morning...fearing
that you would regret what happened and end our friendship?"

A smile slowly crept over Thranduils face and he gently pulled Elrond
down and into his arms "As long as you are being honest and were truly
willing last night, then I have only one regret"

Elrond settled into Thranduils strong embrace and nervously whispered
"And that regret would be?"

The Mirkwood king rolled Elrond onto his back and looked him in the eye
"That I did not do this a long time ago",  then slowly leaned
close and possessively kissed his old friend.
