Need An Ent

"UGH! It's soooo HOT!" Pippin whined as he collapsed under a great oak tree, the shade doing very little to help with the heavy heat and humidity that unfortunately fallen over Hobbiton.

"When is this heat ever gonna go awayyy!" Merry collapsed beside his cousin, "My clothes are sticking to me like honey!"

Pippin licked his lips, tasting the salt on them as he smirked, "Oh, I know wh-"

"Oh please not now...! All I want to do is go to the tops of the Misty Mountains and freeze there instead of being here...MELTING!"

Pippin frowned, "...Am I...with you on the Misty Mountains...?"

Merry huffed, flinging his arms out dramatically, "You can be wherever you want to be!" Groaning, the older Hobbit stood up, "I'm gonna find mys'lf a hobbi-cicle if ya don't mind..."

"B-but Merr-" Pippin gasped as he barely caught his cousin's body-his skin had gone cold and clammy and Merry's face was deathly pale.

"MERRY!" Pippin cradled the older Hobbit's limp form to his chest, his mind going a thousand miles an hour as he frantically looked around, "J-just h-hold on! I have an idea!"

Frodo was laying under a tree by the lake, smoking his pipe while Sam was on his back in the water. The red head was happily floating along the bank, glad to get away from the heat.

"...You sure you don't want to come in?" Sam hesitated, knowing his friend's fear. He felt he made some progress though-seeing Frodo had not yet run away.

"No, I'm fine here Sam." The brunette smiled, blowing some smoke rings. Sam swam upright and was about to speak when Pippin popped out from the bushes and dunked a heavily limp Merry into the lake.

"Stay with me Mer!" Pippin jumped in after and was holding up the other's head above the water.

"What happened?" Frodo and Sam asked in unison as they crowded around the two Hobbits.

Pippin sniffled, "The heat...i-i-it's too hot and..."

"Mmnh..."

"Merry!" Pippin scrambled for his lover's face, his green eyes big and shining from tears.

"...Why am I in water...?" Merry shook his ears out as he wiped his eyes with the back of his hand.

"Ooh! You're alright!" The darker haired Hobbit squealed and splashed around joyously as his lover joined in the celebration, not really caring what had happened. Frodo laughed in relief as he plunked back down against the tree. Sam joined him soon after, not wanting to get dragged down into the water by Merry and Pippin.

"...Do you wonder if there are any Ents in Hobbiton?" Frodo muttered as he propped his head onto the red head's shoulder. A small cool breeze finally blew past their faces as Frodo watched his cousins try to hold their breaths underwater as long as they can.

Sam shrugged, "Dunno."
