"So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world Frodo besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring, in which case you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought."
Legolas smiled and leaned back on his arms with Cosette between his legs. He was full and it felt good. After a day's work it would work up hunger. Smiling, he looked down to the beauty between his legs. She seemed happier now. Malacai had no Idea what he was missing. He did not treat her right, adn he lost her. He deserved it. No one deserved her who did not treat her right. He looked up into the night sky. The stars were coming then..
"Cosette! Look! Up in the sky! A shooting star. Make a wish my love." He said as both elves looked up to the the sky shoot across the sky in a flash.

Re: Of Love and War
Cosette smiled at the majesty of the star and sighed. It was beautiful. No wish do I need....I have everything.... She answered, squeezing his leg gently as she ran her hands along his runner-like legs. She had everything she wanted. Legolas -- love. It was all she needed. Of course, they were not married yet, and there was always the chance of them being found.
Re: Of Love and War
Legolas smile and sat up now. His hands ran up and down her arms as he leaned his head over her shoulder and kissed her neck. "And I have everything that I could ever ask for. A beautiful woman, love, and all under a blanket of stars." His hands now went to her stomach as he rubbed it absent-mindedly. "I cannot wait until the home is build. We need supplies, love. We are going to have toget things from the market to survive. Either we go to rivendell, or I could sneak into Mirkwood at night.."

Re: Of Love and War
Cosette sighed. Mirkwood is closer.....but also more dangerous. You could not be seen. And if you were, you would have to pay others for their silence. She said softly. Turning, she kneeled between his legs, facing him and resting her hands on his chest. Whatever you do, be careful. I do not like being left alone here for too long.......until I get used to it, the area is unsettling. She said with a nod to him.
Cosette couldn't help but get lost in his deep blue eyes. Her hand gently stroked his cheek, as she forced a confident smile to him. My little orc. She teased. It was a ridiculous comparison, for Legolas had the most fair face in all of Middle-Earth. And now, he belonged to her.
Re: Of Love and War
Legolas smiled and ran his fingers through her hair as he gazed at her deeply. SHe was so beautiful. No one in all of Arda could compare to her beauty. No one. The wsmile was still on his fair face as he leaned closer to her and kissed her deeply. "If I am the little orc..." He whispered as the sensational kiss had ended. "Then you are my little elleth.." Legolas kissed her again, only this time, his arms wrapped around her waist and pulled her fully upon his lap.
The prince had already made up his mind. He was going to try to sneak into mirkwood unseen and back to his room, to gether his and her things. There they would have clothes, cover, and pillows to sleep on. Then to the blacksmith and take a few hammers and nails, not to mention a real axe and saw.
That night the couple kissed passionately and soon were under the stars asleep, one beside the other. Save one. Legolas looked over to Cosette and kissed her brow. Taking the dark veil they had put her in the tomb with, He wrapped it around his face so only his eyes would be seen. The darken cloak of his he pulled tightly around him. Silent as the wind, Legolas made off to Mirkwood's city. His home.
So far, everything was according to plan. Legoals had tied up bundels of his clothes, sheets, pillows, swords, and Cosette's clothing. Out of the desk draywer in his room, Legolas had gotten a ring, a ring he would have proposed with to Cosette. Quickly he stuffed that in his pocket and carried the bags to the cart and horse he had silently rigged. Now to the blacksmith.
No one was stirring. A sign of luck to him. Quickly he began to collect the nails, hammers, and all the other tools needed for building a home.

Re: Of Love and War
Cosette slept on peacefully, until later. She awoke with a bit of a startle, but calmed down. It didn't last long, for she noticed Legolas was not there. Where was he? She sat up and looked around the camp, but did not see him. The fire was dwindling.
Standing, she walked over and put more kindling on the fire, so it came to a warm roar again. She was about to sit down, when her stomch turned. Cosette held it for a moment, but then became pale. She ran to a small shrub, and vomited. Once she was finished, she wiped her mouth with the back of her hand and closed her eyes. What was wrong with her?...This sudden queeziness? Holding her stomach, she walked back over to the blankets and laid down again. She wished Legolas was there.
Sighing, she lay back down and pulled the blanket over her slight form. Cosette tried to get sleep until morning.
Re: Of Love and War
Legoals returned early that morning with a horse carrying a cart in tow loaded with bags and tools. Legolas patted the strong animal and led it to the camp, then unhooked the cart from it. Then he set the horse off to graze. Blue eyes turned to Cosette and he smiled to her. Legolas took out a pillow he ahd taken and walked over to her. Kneeling down by her side, he put the pillow under her head and kissed her gently on the lips.
