We walk in utter silence. The horses have left, and I smile sadly. My feet could get used to the pain. Legolas bounds eagerly in front, not leaving a single footprint. I let out a growl of frustration. The hobbits are grumbling, and moaning about their sore feet.
" Do you want to ride on my back, Merry?"
He nods eagerly, and jumps into my back. Then he puts his mouth to my ear, and whispers,
" So you and Legolas are a thing now, right?"
I laugh."we are just friends, Merry."
" But you did kiss right? That's what Gimli and Aragorn told me. "
I sigh." Yes we did kiss. It's it really that big of a deal..."
He nods his head sadly. Then he says,
" Maybe, he will ask you to be his girlfriend....ariana and legolas....sitting on an treebeard...k I s s I n g. First comes love then comes- "
I hit him on the head, and then he shuts up.
" Fool of a Took....sometimes I want to strangle you!"
