Chapter 9.

Glorfindel paced his room silently, his mind racing with thoughts he had long ago forgotten, or she he had thought. He had given Anira�s journal to Elladan, wanting the younger elf to read some of it alone. What he had not realized was he too had found comfort in reading Anira�s words every night. Without having that as a distraction he once again began to thing of what he could have done to save her, and her child. He had known she planned to go riding that day, he had asked her not to but perhaps he could have tried harder to convince her. As her father he had only to forbid her to go then none of this would have happened. Sighing deeply he dropped into a chair by his balcony doors and reached for his wine.
That was exactly how Erestor had found him, still sitting in the chair with a glass still in his hand. The empty bottle of wine on the floor gave him an idea on how long Glorfindel had been there.

�Are we going to leave him there?� Elrohir�s voice had startled Erestor.

�Not if you care to help me move him� Erestor replied, and then turned to see Elrohir make his way into the room. Together they managed to get the sleeping elf lord to his bed.

�You are staying?� Elrohir raised an eyebrow when Erestor had not followed him out of the room

�Someone has to watch over him� Was the only reply he had heard before he closed the door.

�Those two will have an interesting conversation when he wakes up� Elrohir chuckled to himself then left towards his own room. He had just gone to see Elladan. His twin looked mush more relaxed and relieved now that he had come to his decision. Elrohir knew this also meant he had a choice to make as well. One he never thought he would be faced with this soon,
After Elrohir had left, Elladan rested in his bed. He was glad to finally be out of the healing rooms but was still confined to his bed for a few more days, his father�s orders. Staring out the window for a while, Elladan reached to his dresser and took out Anira�s journal. He had so far read every entry up to the last one Glorfindel had read. He knew he should give it back to Glorfindel but could not yet bring himself to part with it. Just seeing her writing brought him more comfort then anything anyone else had been able to offer him. Knowing that she cherished these thoughts made him even cherish them even more. Getting himself settled her opened the journal once more.

There is now less then a month until our binding ceremony and I am exhausted to the point that I had to be brought into the healing rooms. It was not intentional, I have barely had time to sit and rest before someone else came along and needed me to try something on or taste something. I had been in the middle of looking over different flowers when I had collapsed. Elladan was at my side when I opened my eyes a while later, he is still with me as I write this now. Elrond had ordered we not be disturbed and I am to spend the entire evening resting in this bed. If given the choice I would much rather be out walking through the gardens with Elladan. He must realize this as every time I look at him he just gives me his sweet yet knowing smile. I wonder if he is aware of how handsome he is when he does that.
It is still hard to believe that in a few short weeks I will be bound to him. I am both excited and nervous but I would not change a thing even if given the choice. I have no doubt that Elladan is who I was meant to be with. I know he feels the same way I can read it in his eyes each time he looks at me. It seems like ages have passed when I first met the twins and they would annoy me almost every day. Now I can not even picture my life with them, especially Elladan. Elrohir now also being one of my closest friends. There are still some who believe Elladan should be with them. One elleth mostly. As annoyed as I am with her constant need to speak with Elladan. I did however find it mildly amusing when she had come into the healing room and confessed her undying love to Elladan. Of course I probably should have told her it was Elrohir that she was talking to and that Elladan was speaking with Elrond.

Elladan chuckled as he remembered that day well. He had been worried, more worried then he let her know but his father had assured him that she just needed some rest. He also remembered seeing Anira and Elrohir laughing about something as he came in, now he knew why. He chuckled again at the memory and took a few minutes to eat a bit more before he continued to read.

My father had become quiet lately, more quiet then I have ever seen him before. I finally got a chance to speak with him alone for a few minutes. I never expected him to tell me he was missing my mother. I wonder if all the planning had something to do with that but I did not have a chance to ask. I have always known that he cared deeply for my mother but he did not love her, not in the way he always felt she deserved. It was never kept a secret from me that only when he found out she carried his child that he decided to stay with her. He became very protective of her and of course of me when I was born. My mother died a few days later of some complications. She was a Lorien elf and it had been why my father chose to live there with me even after she had died. My only regret was that she got to see me and I did not get to know her.
I see Elrond and Celebrian and together and at times I wish my parents cared that deeply for each other as well. It is clear to everyone who looks at them that there are truly in love and have been for all these years. Perhaps my parents did not feel that way for each other but I do believe that is how it will be between me and Elladan. I look forward to every single day we have together and know that this is what was meant to be, that we were meant to be. That thought alone has always brought me comfort when I start to get nervous about everything that still has yet to be done before the day we are to be bound.
Over the past few days things have finally began to settle down. Elladan once again has stayed with me every night. One of my favorite things for us at the moment is just sharing a few quiet moments together, no one else around to disturb us. It has been during this time that I always seem to drift off to sleep, Elladan�s arms wrapped around me. I wonder if Elladan realizes that being in his arms has always been the one place where I feel safe. It is the one place where I always wish to be no matter how much time may have passed. I realize now that Elladan has always been the only one I have ever loved and ever will love.

Elladan closed the journal slowly and set it down. He lay in his bed on his side and kept his hand on the journal.

�Soon� he whispered softly to himself, his other hand going to the necklace around his neck. �We will be together again soon.�

Closing her eyes, he finally let his dreams of her take over as he drifted off to sleep. He was still sleeping peacefully when Elrohir had next checked on him. He never saw his twin watching him for a while before finally leaving the room silently
