Bellas POV
It wasn't long before we had reached the lonely mountain, it was so beautiful

"When were you two last here?" Thorin asked legolas and I, legolas said "we came 2 years ago to visit bard while he was here"

thorin nodded "ah I see, it is a truly beautiful place, and we are so proud to call it our home"

The other dwarves nodded in agreement of what thorin said, Kìli looked behind at us and shot us both a friendly smile

***
We had out all of the horses away and greeted bard, the servants, some of whom I recognised, I greeted and had a few minutes to quickly chat to them too

we were now in the meeting room, which was really more of a hall, it was very big and had beautiful engravings on the walls, they were all in ancient dwarfish and Kìli was kindly translating some of them for me

Everyone was chatting amongst themselves, thorin and bard were having what looked like a very serious conversation whereas all the others were just chatting and having a laugh

I smiled as I saw legolas greet gandalf and introduce himself to bilbo, most people already knew legolas but those who didn't seemed to like him which pleased me

I heard thorin ask legolas of his fathers whereabouts and how he was, thorin and thranduil really hated eachother for a long time but after the battle dwarves and elves had settled their quarrels, luckily all of this happened before I was even born so I never experienced any hatred of nastiness from the dwarves

"My father is well, I have not seen him for a few months but he has written to me and sent messengers to check that I am alright" legolas explained

Kìli and I went to sit down in the corner on a sofa, "what happened to your arm" he asked as he saw the bandage and before I could object he had called oin over

"What is it Kìli?" Oin politely asked "bella is wounded" he said. "No I'm fine honestly it was just a little scratch from earlier" I objected, but oin shook his head "there is blood coming through your bandage bella, please let me have a look", i smiled and rolled up my sleeve, i was wise and she knew it was best to get it looked at anyway

Oin examined it carefully "luckily I don't think it was a poisoned blade, you got lucky lass" he smiled, he then fetched a small bottle of something from his bag and started dabbing it onto my wound, "what is that?" I asked

"Just a quick remedy that should ease of the pain and make it heal quicker, you may be left with a small scar though" he explained

"ok, I'm not bothered about scars anyway, there's already too many to count as it is" i laughed, oin nodded and went back over to bofer and gloin who he was having a conversation with

"I'm glad you're alright bella" Kìli said to me as he leant back against the sofa and put his arm around me protectively "I'm glad you're alright too" I smiled

Kìli's gaze soon stopped at my eyes as I got lost in his deep chocolatey brown orbs, he leant in and placed a gentle kiss on my lips

What happened next was such a shock

"What on earth do you think you're doing dwarf" shouted legolas, silencing the whole room. I looked at Kìli in shock as I tried to explain "legolas don't worry, we-" he cut me off "how dare you even touch my sister" legolas' voice deepened in anger, I mean I knew he was protective but I had never seen him act like this before

Kìli tried to calm everything down "please, I don't want any trouble" legolas stormed towards Kìli and grabbed him by the shirt

I saw anger and worry grow in filis eyes "let go of my brother!" He shouted as he ran towards legolas.
