CHAPTER 13: Who are you again?

Remus in the meanwhile walked towards Severus and stood next to him in silent, watching him secretly and preten he he was closely listening to the conversation before him.
Severus whose mind had started to wander as he already knew everything that had happened, felt suddenly a familiar presence behind him.: Lupin.

Could this day could even worse?!

First Dumbledore announces out of the blue that Lupin is coming back. Just when he had finally banded all thoughts about the werewolf, he came back into his life. That was why he had decided to ignore him even more than usual. Unfortunately that�s quite hard when you see this person every day and actually want to kiss him so badly that your skin crawls every time you see him.

So Severus didn�t even look around to see if it was really him. He was pretty sure anyway. He was namely very good at sensing people and their (hidden) emotions.

He returned his attentions back to the conversation between Dumbledore and the others. Albus was just lecturing the four students about how stupid they had been, just like Severus had done several minutes ago.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
�I think he will regain his memory very soon, as the spell was only cast by a student.�

~ Are you starting to remember some things again, Legolas?~ Dumbledore asked in Elvish.

Legolas who was staring knowingly at Aragorn with a devilish grin on fac face, quickly turned his head to face Dumbledore.

~ Yes sir. I am beginning to remember more and more from my past.~ he answered, glancing at Aragorn.

The Ranger really didn�t like the looks he was getting. I wonder what he has just seen, but it�s probably safely to say that he knows for sure what we are by now.

~I still cannot understand your language though. I hope I can recall a few words soon, because it is very frustrating not to understand a word that is being said.~

~I have full confidence that you will recover soon, Legolas.~ Dumbledore smiled. ~Why don�t taketake a good night�s rest. Who knows, tomorrow you might be back to your old self again. Let�s go everyone, give Legolas some rest for now.~
He didn�t need to say that twice to Severus, who was beginning to feel very uncomfortable by now. He could feel Remus� eyes burning in his back throughout the entire conversation.

He spun around knocking Remus down in the progress. In a reflex he grabbed Lupin�s arm to catch him and pulled him close to him to steady him. He quickly let go again and practically ran out of the hospital wing.

The four students looked at each other confused. What was that all about? They all felt kind of left out and ignorant now, especially when Remus started to blush and Dumbledore�s eyes began to twinkle behind his glasses.

�Come on let�s go, young ones.� Dumbledore said again, pushing them out of the door. Lupin followed them slowly, still a little dazed. Severus just touched me. ME!

Pomfrey disappeared into her office reluctantly. She still had a big crush on Legolas and couldn�t stand the fact that he�d rather talk to Aragorn instead of her.

So Aragorn was the only one left with Legolas. The latter smiling broadly at the first.

~ I still think it is kind of strange that I am attracted to a man. Look at me: alright I do have long hair, but is that not a feature of my race? And�uh ow..~ Legolas hand went through his hair, but he was shocked to find it only reached until his ears.

~Why is my hair this short? Or am I mistaken and is it not supposed to be longer?~

Aragorn smiled. ~Well since we had to go incognito for this mission we had to cut your hair and make your ears look round. So to the touch they feel pointy, but when you look at them they look like human ears.~

~It is going to grow back? Is it not? I would hate to see it this short forever.~ Legolas questioned slightly panicking now.

~Of course it will grow back. I believe they even have a potion, which will speed up the progress.~

~ Thank Elbereth. So I do have long hair, but since every one of my kin has it that way it is not that special. So is there anything else which makes me look different and attractive for other men?~

~I don�t know, I really�.~

~ But when I look at you, I just do not understand why everyone isn�t in love with you. You are incredible beautiful, why in the name of Elbereth did you ever choose me?~ Legolas said a little insecure. ~ I am the only one right?~

~ Yes Legolas, I told you so an hour ago remember.~

~ I know, I just cannot believe I can call you mine.~

Aragorn laughed at this. ~Why don�t I just tell you everything about us, maybe than you will understand. And besides you are the beautiful one here.~

Legolas frowned at him. ~Do not lie, Elestar.~

~I am not lying Legolas. Anyway where do you want me to begin?~

~What do you think about the first time we met? That would be the most logical event to begin with would it not?~ Legolas replied a little exasperated.

~I guess you are right~ Aragorn laughed. ~But I was very young then and we didn�t know each other very well. I was about 12 human years old and you were only a few years younger than you are today of course. You found me pretty annoying and never gave me a second look. That was probably because I really looked up to you and followed you everywhere you went. And there was the fact that I was always very dirty in Elven standards anyway. Once you even said I was the most filthy and smelly living thing you ever had seen in your entire life.~

Legolas eyes widened in shock.

~I said that to you!~

Aragorn nodded his head, laughing.

~The weeks after that I took a bath twice a day, until you went homewards again. I had a crush on you even back then. I thought you were the prettiest Elf in whole Middle Earth.

The second time we met was two years back. We were send on a mission, togetheth fth four Hobbits: Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippin; another human called Boromir and the Dwarf Gimli. We��.~

~ I went on a mission with a Dwarf!~ Legolas exclaimed incredulously

~ Indeed you did. You and Gimli are actually very good friends.~

~Really?~

~Really really. So you do remember the conflicts your people were having?~

~Not the precise events, but there is something saying I should not like Dwarves. I am not sure as to why, because I have never met one since the accident. It sounds rather foolish just to dislike Dwarves only because there were some conflicts in the past.~

~ I know, but people often hold a grudge for a long time. I think you will probably regain those memories soon. Anyway we were sent to destroy the �One Ring�, which was formed by the Dark Lord Sauron.~

~I think I vaguely remember him, was he not very powerful some centuries ago? ~

~Yes, that is true. A human called Isildur had taken the Ring from him back then, making him very weak. He slowly regained his strength over the years. The One Ring is connected to Sauron as it contains his spirit and so it felt him growing stronger and stronger. After a while it tried to return to its master, but that turned out to be quite difficult as it was found by the most unlikely creature�~

Aragorn continued explaining everything about The Quest for about an hour. He also confessed that he had fallen in love with Legolas during the same mission.

~I suppose I started falling for you just before the fights at Helm�s Deep. I hadn�t seen Arwen for a while and I came to the conclusion I didn�t even miss her so much, or at least not as much as one in love is supposed to.~

~Who is Arwen?~ Legolas asked softly.

~Ah well she was my fianc�e. But when we returned from The Quest we both decided that is wasn�t going to work out. She hallenllen in love with someone else as well. So not to worry.~ Aragorn smiled, taking Legolas in his arms. ~I really do not understand why you are so insecure all of the sudden.~

~Well, I do not remember that much. It is kind of surreal to take this all in at once. I must be the luckiest person in the world, having you by my side.~

~Hahahahah, you say that now.~ Aragorn joked. ~ So on with the story: at one moment I fell of a cliff, leaving everyone to believe that I was dead, which I was not of course. The next day I finally managed to get back to Helm�s Deep, where you were one of the first people I spoke to. You had found my necklace, which I had gotten from Arwen symbolising her giving up her immortality for me.

When you gave it back to me I realised I cared nothing for it and was more happier to see you again. ~

~As I was to see you. You have no idea how heartbroken I was when an Orc told me you fell down that cliff. I really thought I was going to die from a broken heart right that in stand, but then I remembered everything we were fighting for and I knew I just couldn�t give up.~

~You remember.~ Aragorn breathed, pulling Legolas closer.

~I do, I also remember us having a fight a few hours later.~

~Ah, you thought we would not stand a chance against 10.000 Orcs and Uruk Hai, which was of course right. But thankfully Lord Elrond send a few hundred Elves to aid us in our battle against Saruman, otherwise we would have lost. And there were also Gandalf and Eomier and his followers, who all helped us to victory.~ Aragorn explained, smiling nostalgically.

~ And what about this new mission we seem to be on?~ Legolas questioned.

~ Well in the end we thought we had defeated Sau�.~ Aragorn started to explain.

�Didn�t I just tell everyone he needed some sleep!� Pomfrey exclaimed, storming towards them.

�I�m sorry Madam Pomfrey, but Legolas really needs to know everything about his past.� Aragorn explained.

�I don�t care! It is very important that he gets his rest. So leave! NOW!!�

�Do not worry, I will leave.� He turned to face Legolas again. ~ See you tomorrow, melamin.~

~ You will come, will you not?~ The Elf asked, still not able to believe his luck as to having this man as his beloved.

~ Of course. I would never lie to you, Legolas.~ Aragorn replied, e kie kissing his forehead.

Legolas sighed happily at this. ~ I will be waiting for you.~

Aragorn smiled one more time before walking out of the hospital wing, leaving a very in love Legolas and a confused Poppy behind.

What kind of friends are they? They seem awfully close. Poppy thought. It must be normal in their culture, or something. There�s no other explanation for it, because they just can�t be�gay. Nah, they are just very good friends. She finally decided, letting the matter rest for now and going back into her office.
*^*^*^*^**^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^**^*^*^*^*
The following morning Legolas was released from the hospital wing. There wasn�t really a reason for him to stay there any longer so Dumbledore and Poppy decided that it would probably be best if he spent some time among the students. They asked Ron, Harry and Hermione to tell everyone that Legolas had a sore throat to explain his lack of speaking. They also asked them to help Legolas as good as they could, so that he wouldn�t make any mistakes.

After breakfast Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippin approached them.

~ Hello Legolas, we heard what happened.~ Frodo spoke in Elvish, as he was the only Hobbit present, who could speak the language a little.

~ Ow hello, you must be hmmm�. Give me a moment�. Hmmm� Frodo! Am I right?~

~ Yes, you are. Am I that famous around here?~ Frodo joked.

~ Well actually Aragorn told me about you yesterday and I remember you a little.~

~Really? Well that is very good news! Are there things other you remember also?~

~Yes a lot of things fortunately. It is all coming back to me now. They think I will recover very soon. I even understand some words from your language.~ Legolas told him smiling broadly.

�Whahe she saying, Merry. Do you understand it?� Pippin questioned his nephew.

�Not a word, Pip. Just wait, Frodo will probably explain it to us in a moment.�

�Argh, I hate it when I can�t understand what other people are saying.� Merry spoke a little frustrated.

�Maybe will you think about take lessons? Merry is it not?� Legolas suggested, trying to talk English as best as he could.

Merry�s mouth opened in awe. �I thought you couldn�t speak English?�

�I can not really. Just few words and verbs is difficult.� Legolas explained, doing his best to remember the words and grammar codes.

�Well you are doing a fine job after such a short period of time.� Sam complimented him.

�Thank you Sam.� Legolas smiled.

~I have to go now. I have potions class in a few minutes.~ he continued in Elvish. ~It was nice to see you all again, maybe I will see you at lunch?~

~We will see you then.~ Frodo replied. ~Good luck today, Legolas.~
>>>>>>>>
When he reached the new potion�s classroom he realised he was still pretty early as no one else was there yet.

He was about to go and look for Ron, Harry and Hermione when he heard some voices coming from within the classroom. Maybe everyone is already inside. He thought and opened the door.

�Ow sorry.� He said, when he realised that he was indeed early and a professor was talking to a girl, who was probably a student.

�Ah Legolas, you are a little early, if you would be so kind and wait in the hall for a minute.� The professor with the raven black hair told him.

Legolas give him a puzzled look. Not fully understanding everything that was being said to him, but still getting the hint that he wasn�t allowed to stay. So he just nodded and closed the door behind him.

After about two minutes the door opened again and the girl, who had red hair and freckles appeared. She looked around nervously, apparently making sure that no one except Legolas had seen her. �Hey Legolas, please don�t tell my brother I was here okay? He would bury me alive if he knew I talked to professor Snape alone. He kinda hates him a lot, you know.� She told him.

Legolas nodded as a reply. Not sure why her brother couldn�t know. Probably something I am supposed to know, but my stupid memories will not show me! He thought frustrated.

�Thanks Legolas, I owe you one.� The girl said and quickly run off.
�You can come in now, Legolas.� A voice called from inside the classroom.

He did as he was told and took a seat behind one of the tables.

�How are you doing?

Do you even understand a word I am saying?� Snape asked, approaching him. �I can�t speak Elvish unfortunately. Languages where never my strongest subject.� He added, looking at the Elf closely.

�I understand little.� Legolas replied.

�Ah I see, well that�s good enough for now. I�ll let you work with Ron, Harry and Hermione. You know those kids from yesterday, the ones who did this to you.� Severus said, anger ringing in his voice. �I hope you don�t mind, but they are the only ones beside Draco of course, who know about con condition.�

�I know what they done at me.� Legolas said after a while. He still found it very hard to understand every thing and to reply with the right words. He knew he was making a lot of grammar mistakes, but at least they could understand him a little.

�I know what they have done to me, is the correct way to say it.� Severus said smiling, trying to help him. �Or: I know what they did to me.� (a/n: at least I hope these two sentences are correct, if not I am making a big fool of myself now L saying it all wrong to poor Leggy;p)

�Ah, okay, thank you. I know not your name. Is it Snape? The girl says it to me. Do I see you the day before today?� Legolas questioned.

�Yes and yes. My name is indeed Severus Snape and you did see me yesterday. I was the one who caught the four of them actually and I �� he abruptly stopped talking, when there was a knock on the door.

�Yes?� Snape questioned, walking towards the door.

�Hello professor, we already thought we heard your voice. We do have class now, don�t we?� Seamus Finnegan asked.

�Well if your schedule says so, I suppose you do, don�t you?� Snape spoke sarcastically.

�Uh� yes, I guess so. I just wanted to be sure that�s all.� Seamus replied, walking towards his seat. �Hey Legolas, I heard about your throat, though luck hah. Strange Pomfrey couldn�t give you a potion or something though. She has fixed some worse things before.�

�He�s allergic to some of the ingredients in that particular potion.� Severus lied. �That�s why she couldn�t help him.�

�I see, well that explains it, I suppose.� Seamus said, unpacking his bag.

Severus gave him exasperated look, but decided notn ton to bother.

The other students were starting to walk in a few at a time, until finally the last one was inside and closed the door behind him.
