Blesséd
by Milady
Hawke | Milady
Hawke's Live Journal
Rating: PG
Summary: An old promise and a first kiss. Can Legolas
live with both?
Warnings: Mild angst.
Feedback: Keeps authors writing.
Disclaimer: I don’t own them *sob*
Archive: Sure - just let me know where.
Dedication: Written for May, the Aníron archivist. Merry Christmas,
May, and remember to enjoy it. *hugs*
Author's Note: I know this scenario has been beaten
to death like [insert off-color joke here], but this is the season for
magic, and this particular moment never loses its shining, no matter
how many times it’s written. Submitted to the “100 Words” drabble challenge
at Legolas_Aragorn_Slash. In case anyone is wondering, the accent in
the title makes it a two-syllable word. Despite appearances, blesséd
is pronounced with the stress on the first syllable.

The elf did not flinch when
Elessar grasped his pale hands and drew the hesitant body to
him. Nor when the man framed the elf’s fair face, ghosting weathered
lips against a softening mouth in the faintest whisper of a
kiss.
The elf merely pulled away,
gently, but deliberately, with a question behind his wetly shimmering
eyes and a sharp trouble blossoming in his heart.
“Why?” he asked.
“You could not,” was the answer.
“Your wife−”
“−would not have my heart
torn in two.”
For the first time in years,
Legolas blessed his promise to stay.
