Love at first sight

Feb 22, 2004 13:20

The horses rode towards Imladris and a young Legolas was restless. He did not want to take this trip, but his father insisted he learn some of the ways of leadership, intrusting him to deliver the new negotiations between Mirkwood and Imladris. Legolas was honored with this new responsibility, but he felt like he was not ready to leave his home of Mirkwood for any length of time.

The company road up and two dark haired elves greeted them, both of them almost identical that most would have a hard time telling them apart. They did not seem much older than himself, maybe a couple of centuries. At almost the same time, they bowed slightly at the company escorting the Mirkwood Prince.

“Mae Govannen, Prince Legolas. I am Lord Elrohir, and this is my twin brother, Lord Elladan. We are here to take care of any needs you may have before you see our father, Lord Elrond.”

Legolas almost completely ignored the Elf talking, and instead focused on his silent brother. There was something about this one that pulled at his heart and he knew he was struck by an arrow of love. Sighing deeply, Legolas pulled his attention back to the present and focused on the task at hand. Love was something that Legolas could not indulge in at this time, for responsibility was in the way.
