Hey lovable ones who've made it into 2015, hope your having a good day and start to 2k15!!!

***
The next morning, I returned up to Thranduil's halls very early. The sun was at least an hour off rising, but I wanted to return home. I didn't want to wake Maethorhest again, so I left a note:

Maethorhest,

Thank you again for letting me stay over night, it was what a needed. I've returned up to the palace, I'll come by some time over the weekend and we can do something together.

Miss you already, much love,

Your friend Erynriel.

<3

I dotted the 'i' in my name, before quickly drawing a heart at the bottom. With ease, I slipped the note under her clock that was on the bedside table, sure she would see it when she awoke. Whenever that may be. The window was open, as Maethorhest said the room would be "too damn stuffy with two people.", so she left it open all night.

I crept out towards it, and over the frame, so I was hanging by my finger tips. Okay, time to be a graceful Elleth. Oh crap. My fingers slipped, and I landed with a less than graceful 'splat' onto the floor below. My face red, I felt a sharp pain in my bum. Luckily, I landed on the edge of a bush, so my back and chest wasn't hurt. I got up, rubbing my bum as I tried to see whether it was hurt or not, and just ended up turning a full circle like an idiot.

*Sigh*

The street was peacefully silent at this time, like I said, the sun was a good hour away from rising. I made it about 5 o'clock, but it could be earlier, I hadn't quite got the grasp of sun timing, as my house when I was small was always dark outside, and then I lived buried deep underground after that. I need to work on my graceful Elleth like skills, being nimble and quick.

Suddenly, uphead, I saw something move along the top of the street, like someone running side to side, as if they were looking for something. They looked tall, with a lithe shape.

Stopping dead, I listened, and could make out the sound of someone shouting my name. Straining my ears, I realised I must have good hearing, as the person was barely mouthing the words, yet I could hear them like someone shouting in my head. My heart leapt, as a realised who it was.

"Erynriel! Erynriel!"

I ran towards the elf, already sure of who it was, as their hair shone against the dim lit street, golden blonde. Legolas hadn't seen me yet, so I ran even faster, and took off when I was about a metre from him. I felt wind beneath me, as my feet skimmed the ground.

"Eryn- aghhkkk!" He shrieked, as I bowled him over, erupting into fits of giggles. He fell over, so I fell on top of him, and sat up straighter, my hands pushing off his chest. I hadn't realised until know how strong Legolas was, his chest was toned and I could feel every chiseled part of him. He looked up, and a huge smile crossed his face. I laughed again, and lay down on him so my arms folded over, like a cat.

"Melleth nîn, I was worried about you, when I didn't hear you come to bed, I worried that something had happened to you." He says, his blue eyes staring softly into mine. I lean down, and graze our lips, not long enough for a proper kiss, but long enough that I watch his eyes close momentarily.
"You shouldn't have been worried, you forgot I grew up with Orcs." I whisper against him, as he watches me, pinching him playfully. He laughed, and brushed his hand against my cheekbones.

"I know you are, I just worry about you. Why do you tease me like this?" He whispers huskily, and I smirk at him, moving my head away when he moves to kiss me. He protests by raising one eyebrow, causing me to laugh. His blue eyes shine in the light, and I have the sudden urge to sink deeper into them. I realise how silly we look, if there was anyone to see us, lying in the middle of the road whilst everyone else slept.

I get up, dusting myself down, as I had just been lying on the ground. Legolas then gets up, and puts his arm around my waist, catching me off guard. He is strong for an elf, as I feel his strong arm around my waist. My whole body begins to shiver.
"You wanted to tease me, then your going to be sorry." I whispers, laughter edging around his tone. I stick my tongue out, and try and run away from him.

He grabs my waist, and twirls me towards him, making me heat up at how close we are standing. He picks me up over his shoulder, the movement so sudden that I let out a tiny shriek. He now carries me over his shoulder, as I thump on his back with my hands.
"Put me down, you big oaf!" I cry, as he walks up the street. I feel his laugh, and then my stomach drops.

"As your command, my lady."

He pretends to drop me, rolling me off the side of his shoulder. I shout out, as I drop to the ground, sat there on the road again.

"That's for leaving last night." He says, and I begin to protests. He takes my hand, and guides me to my feet, and then kicks my legs gently from under me, catching my waist, bending me. I try and protest again, but I am locked in his gaze.

Our bodies are so close now, that I can almost hear his heartbeat against mine. If he could hear mine, he would know it was going ten fold.
"That's for teasing me." He whispers, before bending over me, and kissing me gently. My heart seems to swell in my tiny ribcage, as if it's been tickled.

I kiss back, wrapping my arms around his neck, as he pulls me up so that I'm standing. I kiss him, over and over, not even taking a breath. I can feel his lips move against mine, feel his chest against mine, our hearts so close.

He kisses me back, softly, as if treasuring it. I absently wonder how he got so good at kissing. Or maybe I just have low standards. All these thought whip around my head, dulled out by his lips against mine, kissing me over and over again.

Slowly, he breaks away, and looks deep into my eyes. I can barley control myself, he is so so so beautiful and handsome.

"That's for everything else."
