‘thoughts’
Sounds of rejoicing and
celebration rang through the Elven vale of Imladris as they celebrated the
Winter Solstice. But two figures were not involved in the celebrations as they
walked hand in hand towards the bridge in the gardens. Arwen smiled lovingly up
at Aragorn as they walked along, their feet lightly crunching the snow covered
ground as they went. Once at the edge of the bridge, she turned to him fully,
smiling. "I have something special for you," she whispered softly, her cheeks
pinking in the cool moonlight caress.
"Oh? What would that be,
melethril?" Aragorn murmured gently as he cupped her face and brushed his thumb
over her pale cheek. He smiled as she leaned into the touch.
"It is something my mother
gave to my father when they celebrated their first Winter Solstice together,"
Arwen replied as she dug into her fur lined wrap and pulled out a small wooden
box that was intricately carved.
Curious, Aragorn took the
box and opened it. He gasped as he saw what lay within on a bed of black velvet.
Silver lined mistletoe glimmered from the cloth, topped with tiny red rubies
that glistened amidst the deep green and silver leaves. Gently, Arwen took it
out and placed the brooch on his robes, pinning the clasp there firmly before
caressing it and him gently while looking up at him.
"It is a symbol of love and
protection as the years come and go. She gave it to him before he went to battle
in the Last Alliance and he returned to her whole and hale. I give this now to
you as you go on your adventures so that you will not forget me or my love for
you," she murmured quietly and smiled as he took her hand in his and laced their
fingers together.
"I would never forget you,
my love. We are one," Aragorn whispered tenderly as he cupped her face again.
They leaned closer together and brushed their lips in a sweet kiss before it
deepened. They held each other tightly through the night, needing only each
other on that Winter Solstice night.
