Take a Break - Aragorn x Reader
You almost regretted leaving the bathwater before it had gone cold, but there was no time. You had said as much to the king last night. There was no time to take a day off and stay in the bath, or in bed. There was too much to do, especially with the approach of his silver jubilee and the ball and the kingdom-wide, week-long festivities...
Yes, much too much to attend to. There was no time to indulge your tired, sore muscles or aching eyes.
You emerged from the bathing chamber in your lace shift, briefly finishing the braid of your still-damp hair.
You would wear something simple today, so it wouldn't require any help to put on, and leave your hair as it was. The satin slippers would do today, since you weren't going outside. All that was left was—
"Where's my crown?" You ask, your heart involuntarily jumping. It was always on your dressing table. Or your head, obviously.
Your husband stood leaning against the opposite wall, one hand behind his back. "Hm, that's strange, I have no idea," he pondered, looking for all the world like the cat that definitely got the canary.
"Darling, what do you have behind your back?" You asked, narrowing your eyes at him.
"Nothing," he widened his eyes innocently. "What are you talking about?"
"Aragorn, I need my crown," you said seriously. "I have a meeting with the incendiary specialists in an hour, and you know firework makers, they're remarkably punctual."
"Not the one I know," he argued, and you sighed.
"Hand it over," you held your hand out.
He straightened to his full height, holding your gold band over his head. "Or what?"
You ground your heels into the floor, knowing what you had to do. The two of you had played this game before, though it had been about ten years since the last time. You leapt in vain in the hopes of snatching the crown from his hand, but you knew he was too tall for it to make a difference. He caught you by your waist, spinning you to the center of the room.
"Aragorn!" You squealed.
"Yes, my lady?" He smirked.
You waited until he set you back down to strike, bolting for his middle. He gasped in defeat, tumbling onto the bed and caught rather like a beetle on the plush blankets. "Brought low by amateur wrestling tactics!" He cried.
"You will surrender and hand over my crown at once, sir!" you said, clambering over him and toward his still outstretched arm.
"Never!"
A quiet knock suddenly sounded at the door, followed by a click of the latch. "Your majesty, will you be requiring any assistance this morning? You're usually in the dressing room—oh! Excuse me," the maid's voice suddenly raised an octave.
The deep rumble of Aragorn's laugh beat against your chest as you froze in mortification. You groaned and dropped your forehead to his shoulder, cheeks burning in embarrassment.
"I have a feeling no one will be bothering us for a while now," he said triumphantly.
You thought about that for a while, and finally started laughing a bit as well. "I feel bad, I'm pretty sure I gave Lisbet an eyeful."
"Aw, and what about me?"
You sat up a bit more to look him in the eye, brushing a lock of greying hair out of his eyes. "You always get just what you want, don't you?"
"The best thing in the world is waking up beside you." Aragorn X reader - modern or middle earth, up to you! <3
This will be posted at 1pm today! I’m going to be in the air at that time, so this is all scheduled in advance. I hope you enjoy!
I also got your second message, right after I wrote this drabble, so this doesn’t have a Ranger reader, but they are definitely human! The second request of yours in my inbox is a ranger one though! (Will be posted in a few days.)
Hey, hopefully requests are open! Do you think you could please write an Aragorn x reader one shot? Where you are from Gondor and close with Faramir and he kinda gets jealous/envy of your relationship but you and faramir have been best friends since you were little and you both are great fighters. So there is a massive dinner at Gondor and you and Aragorn talk and you kinda of charm him with your intelligence and faramir tells him that "she is one of a kind". You decide really heh. sorry
Why sorry? You’re very sweet, thank you for messaging me,
I must say, this is quite a different Aragorn than I’ve written before. I will give it a shot. :)
