Glorious (The Best Of It Remix)
‘How glorious a day!’ Pippin said, thought for a moment, then continued. ‘Merry, I hadn’t realised it, but it’s our first day off, since the War.’ He remembered feeling like this, wearily content, after spending the day out in the fields with his father, for Paladin as Thain often had his hands in things directly.
Merry smiled, though he didn’t answer.
It was quite a good feeling, actually. Since the day had ended already, Pippin found himself hoping that the night, at least, would not have to end.
And Minas Tirith was beautiful, and the land beyond it healing - nothing at all like Great Smials, but at least the sky above seemed the same.
He missed home, and his parents, and even his sisters - Pervinca would no doubt have words with him, on his return - but he pushed those thoughts away, considering instead the night ahead.
They sat together after that, just enjoying the quiet.
When Merry said, ‘I love you,’ Pippin grinned into the kiss pressed against Merry’s warm cheek. The night seemed perfect, and Merry, too. If there were tears after that, Pippin should only hope that Merry would allow him to blame it on the heights.
