It was morning. The sunlight was streaming through the window. Legolas and Gimli were still huddled up together on Legolas bed. It was warm and cosy being held by Legolas strong arms. Gimli sighed, he wished it could always be like this, that he could always sleep next to Legolas and be held by him.

Legolas stirred. "Legolas" Gimli said nudging the half awake elf. "Legolas he repeated again nudging harder.

"What" Legolas yawned. "it's to early to get up" he complained, stretching out his arms and shaking his head to rid his brain of sleep. "The sun has risen, it is time to eat, Aragorn and the others will be expecting us." Gimli said as he removed himself from Legolas arms and scuttled into the bathroom.

Legolas sighted, it had been nice to hold Gimli all night, listening to his even breathing the lulled him to sleep. I t didn't feel weird it felt natural, like it was meant to be this way. He sighted again, Gimli wouldn't want that to happen again, he was just being kind and not upset him, not After last nights conversation. All the thoughts put Legolas in a bad mood. This thing he had about Gimli was driving him crazy, every waking hour he would think about him, he even dreamed about him. He had tried and failed in telling Gimli he liked him... what the heck it was more like love but Legolas dismissed that as an option.

The bathroom door opened. out walked Gimli looking fresher, he was ready for the day and had a pleasant smile on his face... a smile soon to be whipped of his face.

Aragorn barged through the door as legolas had just finished his final braid. "Aragorn wh-whats happened" gimli spluttered. Aragorns eyes were huge. he was breathing heavily as if he had just ran for miles. "Orcs... Orcs spotted at the north side"

They both froze. Orcs how could orcs have got here, why would they come here. They had battled the last of the orcs and sent them packing, why were they back?

"Grab your bow, an Gimli your axe, I feel that the peace here has been disturbed."

Small chapter... its about to get intense from here I promise you.
