0 Reviews

10 years had passed and for 10 years Nessa and Legolas stayed at Mirkwood. Sometimes they visited Lórien but this day was the first day in 10 years for them to go back to Imladris. Both were eager to see their friends again but especially Alvina. For, as a mortal, she would have change in the 10 years they did not see her and also because it was her 35th birthday and no one knew they were coming.

They went inside seeing Erestor and Alvina dancing they went over to Elrohir and Elladan who were laughing together watching Alvina and Erestor. "Legolas! Nessa!" Yelled Elrohir and hugged his two friends "When did you got here?" Elladan asked. "Just a few minutes ago." Nessa answered, smiling.

Alvina heard the yell and turned around spotting Elrohir and Elladan hugging Legolas and Nessa. She ran up to them and gave them a big hug. "Ada, Nessa!" She yelled. "This is the best birthday I've ever had." She confessed seeing her best friend and her ‘Ada'.

Time passed on when Nessa and Legolas took Alvina aside. "Alvina, we need to tell you something." Legolas began. "Yeah." Said Alvina, encouraging. "I've asked Nessa to be my wife." Legolas said carefully. "And what was her answer?" Alvina asked, with no emotion. "I said yes." Said Nessa, looking at Legolas and then back to Alvina for any reaction. "You did?" She said coldly and Nessa nodded. Suddenly Alvina hugged both of them yelling "this is wonderful, congratulations!"

Then she took them by the hand and dragged them back inside.

"Everyone, may I have you attention please." She said waiting for all her guest to be quiet. "I did not believe this birthday could get any better until Ada and Nessa walked in. But now they've told me something which even made my birthday better." She said stopping for a moment to take a breath. "They are betrothed to each other. They're going to get married!" She exclaimed. And everyone hugged them, saying congratulations.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Today whole Imladris was in an uproar because today was the day that Nessa and Legolas were going to take their vows. They were going to get married in Imladris because both thought it as their second home and because they couldn't convince Alvina to go to Mirkwood and they didn't want to marry without her. Nessa had asked Alvina to be her maid of honour and Legolas asked the twins to be his best men for he couldn't choose between them. Legolas had invited his family and some of his friends from Mirkwood and were happy that they all arrived. Nessa had also invited her family and they came as well.

Nessa and Legolas, both couldn't remember the ceremony for they only had eyes (and ears) for each other. They were at the after party now dancing. So were Alvina and Elrohir.

Legolas had left Nessa side for a moment and when he came back the music had stopped. He began to sing:

There is no one in this world,
Who can love me like you do,
That is the reason that I,
Wanna spend forever with you.

When he stopped everyone cheered and Legolas wiped the tears away that had fallen down from Nessa eyes and then she kissed him.

After the dance Nessa and Alvina went to talk to each other.

Ness, I am so happy for you." Said Alvina once they stood on the balcony. "I thank you Alvina. But yet I see sadness in your eyes." Nessa replied. "Do not doubt that I am not happy for you, because I am."

"I do not doubt that, but I cannot help but notice that you look sad this evening."

"I just… It's just that…" Alvina sighed. "You looked so happy when you took your vows and so did Ada and yet I know I'll never be this happy with Elrohir." She sighed once again.

"Ai Vina, you and Elrohir can be as happy as I am with Legolas, you just need to find out how! You may not want to marry him…" Nessa couldn't finish her sentence because Alvina interrupted her. "But I do want to marry him. It just cannot be…"

"Maybe it cannot be but it is not unheard of a Mortal marrying an Immortal." Alvina gave her a look. "I know you do not want to break his heart but maybe it is worth taken the risk."

"Nah Nessa. It cannot be. We will find a way to be as happy as you and Ada." Nessa smiled at her. "You will find a way to be very happy." She stopped for a while. "Didn't Elrohir look beautiful tonight?" Nessa asked. "Yes, he did." Alvina said blushing. "I have never seen him so beautiful before." She said truthfully still blushing. Nessa smiled at her.

Legolas walked up to them. "Hello Ada." Said Alvina and hugged him. "Hello my two beautiful ladies." He replied smiling. "What were the two of you talking about?"

"About how beautiful Elrohir looked tonight." Nessa replied. "You're already looking at other male Elves. It is our wedding day." He half joked, half trying to look as if he was serious but failed miserable. "Oh yes my dear. That is my duty as a best friend." She joked back. Neither noticing that Alvina was blushing from her ears to her toes…

Epilogue

Nessa and Legolas walked into Alvina's room. Long have they been away…Too long. Alvina was dying of old ages and had asked Legolas and Nessa to visit her one last time. As they approached the bed they saw Elrohir sitting on a chair next to the bed. He nodded to them and went to wake up Alvina. "Vinnie, Nessa and Legolas are her." He whispered. Alvina slowly woke up and turned her head to the voice. Nessa and Legolas walked into her view. "Nessa, Ada!" She said as cheerful as she could. "My daughter." Legolas said grabbing her hand. "Dear Alvina." Said Nessa sitting down next to Legolas.

"Still as beautiful as ever." She said. "So are you." Said Legolas. "Do not lie dear Ada, I know I am old." She said smiling. "Ai maybe you are but you are still beautiful." He said, smiling. "Thank you." She said.

"I have summoned you for a reason." Alvina began. "I wished to see you before I die…" She said sadly. "And we are happy to see you again." Said Nessa. "It is good to see you too." She said stopping for she was already out of breath. "I do not have much time. I can feel it." Alvina looked at Elrohir and he went to the cupboard. He grabbed something out of it and returned to Alvina. "I made this for you. So you could remember me when I am not here anymore." She showed them two necklaces. "They have something carved in it." She handed them to their rightful owners. Both the necklaces had the shape of a heart and on that heart was craved an A, on the A were flowers, roses to be exactly for they were Alvina's favourite flowers. "So you'll remember me." Alvina said again. Legolas and Nessa both hugged Alvina and kissed her cheek then they left the room.

Elladan, Elrond, Glorfindel and Erestor entered the room. Glorfindel was the first to walk up to the bed. "Dearest Glorfindel." Alvina said "I wish to thank you for all the things you have taught me. The language and the history of Middle-Earth. I have enjoyed all the time we spent together." Glorfindel smiled at her and then also kissed her cheek and hugged her and left the room.

Elrond was next up. "I thank you, Lord Elrond, for taking me in your house. You have giving me a family which I ever dreamed of." Lord Elrond also smiled at her and left the room.

Then Elladan walked up to the bed. "Dearest Elladan. Thank you for taken care of me and Nessa when you found us. And also thank you for being my friend." Elladan went to hug her and Alvina whispered in his ear "Take good care of him when I'm gone." Elladan nodded in the hug and then broke it and also left the room.

Erestor sat down on the bed and took Alvina's hand. "Thank you, my dearest Erestor, for being my friend when I didn't want anyone around me. You were the one to listen to me when I wanted to be alone." Erestor smiled a sad smile. "I'll miss you dearest Alvina." Alvina also gave a said smile. "Find love again, Erestor. That is my wish for you." Erestor nodded and kissed her cheek, hugged her and then left the room.

When the couple were alone Elrohir lay down next to Alvina and hugged her as close as he could. "I love you, Elrohir" Alvina whispered tiredly, all the talking had exhausted her. "And I love you." Elrohir whispered back and placed his lips on hers. Then placed a ring around her ring finger and smiled at Alvina seeing her expression. "I will always love you." Elrohir whispered. When Elrohir's perfect hearing couldn't hear Alvina's heartbeat anymore he started to cry. He cried because he had lost his lover. He cried because he had lost his one true love. And he cried…

The End!

Although I'm gone remember me
Please be strong, I'll never leave
just hold on, to the memory
While I'm here all I'm thinking about is tomorrow
