[ P - Pre-Teen ]

Starry Night

After everyone had gone from the party and off to their own rooms,
Legolas and Kiroa walked alone for awhile. Then they sat down upon a soft patch of grass
that was lit up by the moonlight.

"Your friends made some very beautiful toasts tonight Legolas." Said Kiroa.

"Yes. I am very fortunate to have such good friends."

He was about to say something else, but he suddenly stopped speaking.

"What's the matter darling?" Asked Kiroa, the concern very clear in her voice.

Then she looked over to see that Legolas' eyes were misted with tears.

"Legolas?" Kiroa asked, sounding very worried now. Legolas wasn't one to cry. You could usually tell his emotions by
the expression on his face. After a few moments, he spoke.

"I was just thinking about all the horrible times that my friends and i had to go theough during the War of the Ring, and
how lucky we are to have made through. We have all found happiness." He smiles at Kiroa.

"But the effects of our experiences will forever be with us. I think about my innocent hobbit friends that had to leave their home,
and then had to come back to it and rebuild it completely, because Saruman had destroyed it. Merry and Pippin were so young and Sam was so innocent.
And Frodo is much quieter than he was before the journey. He had to carry such a heavy weight, more than any of us. I think of Gandalf, who lost his life once,
but by the will of the Valar,it was given back to him. I think of Eowyn and Eomer, who lost Theoden and Theodred. I think of Faramir who lost his beloved brother Boromir,
and then had to deal with Denethor. Arwen almost lost her life because of the darkness of Sauron. And Aragorn and Gimli, my brothers in arms, had to go up against so many enemies, and risked their lives
constantly. And Aragorn had to learn how to become a king so quickly. But then I think of the bonds of friendship that hold us together, and I can't see them ever being broken. I know that I will always
have these friends. And I will always have my family. And now I have you my sweet Kiroa, the light of my life."

Legolas and Kiroa kiss and hold each other in a passionate embrace.

"I love you Kiroa." Said Legolas hoarsley.

"Oh I love you to Legolas, My handsome elvish prince."

Kiroa's brown eyes sparkled with happiness as she looked up at her fiance. The couple sat there for a while, just holding each other.
Then Kiroa fell asleep on Legolas' shoulder. Then he picked her up gently and carried her to her room. Then he whipered:

"Goodnight Kiroa. My love , my bride. Get some rest. We have a big day tommmorow."

Then he closed the door soflty and went to his own room, thinking of the wedding the next day.
