*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Sighing once again I slammed the book shut before dumping it onto the table. There were multiple piles of books strewn across the table in front of me, this was supposed to distract me, pass the time. No matter the amount of reading I did I couldn’t draw my mind away from the real world. Deciding to give up distracting myself, I stood from my chair, sorting my skirts before exiting the royal library. The librarian bid me farewell with a sympathetic smile, he knew why I visited them everyday.
My fiance was far away, I could not even write to him. Kili Oakenshield, a prince, had joined his uncle’s company to take a journey towards ’ The Lonely Mountain’ so that he may reclaim his kingdom. We all knew that it would be dangerous, we all knew that some of them may never come back. Kili and I had grown up together, it was obvious to everyone that we were to marry; we were used to being with each other almost all of the time meaning that this would be a strange experience for both of us.
Fiddling with my beautiful engagement ring, I wandered down the corridors of the palace, not really heading anywhere in particular. My mother and father had started to worry for my health knowing that I was always sad and hardly ever smiled. However they could not do anything about it, only hope that my love would return to me unharmed. Even if he was harmed, I would be happy that he had come back, he could be missing a leg and I wouldn’t care. Our wedding was all planned out, the kingdom too waited in anticipation, all that was needed was the groom.
Yet again, another sigh left my lips. What was I supposed to do? There had been no word from the company or anything about it. At first I had a lot of faith in the dwarves, wizard and hobbit, I still did, but my worry was growing stronger by the day; there was no telling how much longer I would have to ended this tedious nightmare.
“M'lady!” I heard someone call my name. It was one of the guards.
“Yes?” I spun around in confusion, a small glimmer of hope rising in me.
He smiled, knowing that I would be happy with his answer.“They have returned.
Picking up my skirts, I ran faster than I ever had before. For some reason I one where to go, like an instinct. I looked like a maniac but who cared? I was the princess, no one dared question me. As my hair flew behind me and my heels clicked against the floor, I couldn’t help some tears roll down my face. My day had turned around, my happiness had returned.
Bursting into the throne room I saw the company standing there, greeting my mother and father. Thankfully they hadn’t invited any of the court members, treating the men as their own family.
"Kili!” I couldn’t help but scream as I saw his figure.
His head whipped around, a huge grin plastered onto his face. We ran to each other, me jumping into him as soon as he was close enough. Kili held me up, gripping into me tightly as I did to him before setting me on the ground, never letting go. My happy sobs could be heard even though they were muffled in his chest. I didn’t want to let go in case this was a dream. Pulling away from each other, Kili cupped my face in his hands kissing me with passion and love. If it weren’t for the others we would have spent longer doing so.
“I can’t believe you’re back. You cannot imagine how hard it has been without you here.” I whispered.
“Oh, I think I can.” he grasped onto my hands bringing them to his lips.“I just want to marry you now, do we have to wait for an actual ceremony?”
“Kili, you know I feel the same. But think about the celebration, it will be beautiful.”
“It would be beautiful with just you there.”
I gave him a look and he just chuckled.
“Fine. But I pray that it comes soon.”
