I healed in just 2-3 days after I woke up. Thranduil had been very kind to me throughout this time. Legolas had not left my side, although he did go to check the borders once or twice, with Tauriel. And unknowingly, I felt jealous. But i trusted Legolas, i trusted him with my life and so I let it go. Thranduil treated me very well. Almost as if I was his daughter. He would send expensive silk gowns for me to wear every single day even though i had told him not to.

Slowly in a few days Legolas started spending lesser time with me, and more with Tauriel. He would only be with you for dinner and the night. Whenever I would ask him if I could come along or not, he would immediately say that i need more rest and I shouldnt go.

I knew it would be a bad decision, but I decided to follow them one day, to see what they were doing exactly. I dressed myself in my hunting clothes and packed them up with daggers and knives because i knew that the forests of Mirkwood were dangerous.

As i followed them behind, I could hear them laugh and talk about their time before Legolas left Mirkwood. I knew i shouldnt but i couldnt help but feel jealous.

'Would you have been with me if you hadnt left?' Tauriel asked Legolas. My heart clenched as i waited for his reply.

'I dont think so mellon, even if we wouldve been then it wouldnt have been right because only Princess Y/n is the one for me, Tauriel' Legolas told her.
I smiled softly hearing his reply to her. I shouldn't have doubted him I thought to myself.
'But didn't you want to marry her because she is Elrond's daughter and so Thranduil will be happy about it? ' Tauriel asked putting a hand on Legolas's shoulder.
'That's what you said before leaving Mirkwood, that you would only marry a princess because Thranduil is your King. I thought you wanted to please Thranduil and that's why you were marrying her. ' Tauriel continued.
I left before Legolas could answer. I don't know what to do. If his answer was what I was fearing then it would have broken me. I knew he wasn't like that but I still was insecure and unsure.
I wandered further into the forests. Negative thoughts were clouding my mind.
I couldn't help but think what if Tauriel was right? Was he only marrying me to please his Ada?
I wandered around for hours before it was dark. I didn't want to return to the palace because I was not ready to face Legolas yet. I was also feeling guilty about doubting him. I decided to go into the village and see how it was. I knew Legolas would have been worried but I just needed some time to myself. As I entered the village I got some strange and judgemental glances while some drunk men snickered and whistled from the sides. I could have threatened them but I just wasn't in the mood. I ignored them as I entered a small shabby pub. All the elves and men stared at me since I was the only woman there. I sat down with a thump at a corner and ordered beer. I chugged down a glass at one go not thinking about what might happen again if I get drunk. The pub started emptying out slowly as it was late at night. It was just me and 3-4 other elves there. I was extremely drunk and I passed out on the bench eventually.

I returned back to the palace with Tauriel well before the sun set because the forests were dangerous. I was hoping to see and spend some time with y/n. But when I couldn't find her in thr castle some of the gaurds informed me that she had left soon after I did and had not come back yet.

She must have gone out to explore the kingdom was what I thought then. But thr sun had set and she was still not back. I decided to take a few gaurds and look for her. We searched for her for hours in the forest. It was already late at night and she was nowhere to be found. I was worried sick about her. There was just one last village left which was just on the borders of Mirkwood. The gaurds asked the people if they had seen anyone who looked like her. Some of them pointed to a small pub at the corner. Before the gaurds could follow I ran towards the pub and barged in. The pub was dimly lit with just three men who were surrounding someone in the corner.

I pushed them away as I saw y/n laying on the bench, unconscious. I pulled one of the men towards me by his collar, 'what were you doing to her??' I gritted through my teeth. I man shivered in fear as he replied, 'Nothing my prince, we were just trying to wake her up because we couldn't leave her here alone. ' he replied. I sighed in relieve. I was always scared after what happened to y/n when she got drunk in Rohan. My grip loosened on the man's collar as I thanked him and asked him to go home. I sat down beside y/n and gently shaked her body to wake her up. But she did not budge. My eyes softened with worry as I saw tear stains on her cheeks. I had no idea why she had not returned to the palace and instead come to a pub and got drunk. I gently picked up her body and carried her back to the palace on the horse.

I carried her to our room and laid her down on the bed. I gently kissed her forehead as she shuffled in her place. Just a moment later I saw her open her eyes. She held her head and groaned in pain as she tried to sit up.
'Aahh' she groaned as I looked at her in worry.
'Wait here, let me get you something for your headache' I said as I got up and brought back some medicine from the healers.
'Where were you. I was worried sick for you. Do you not think about how I feel?' I asked, slightly angry.

My head was paining really bad. The last think I remember was being in the pub and now I was in the palace in our bedroom.

'Where were you. I was worried sick for you. Do you not think about how I feel? ' Legolas said as I sensed some anger in his voice. I looked down in guilt and told him about everything.

'meleth nin, you shouldve waited to hear my answer, Tauriel wasnt right my love, i want to marry you because you are the love of my life and there is no one else I want to spend the rest of my life with, i love only you y/n and im not marrying you to please Thranduil.' he said caressing my hair.

'im sorry Legolas, i shouldnt have doubted you and made you worry so much, please forgive me' i said as a tear left my eye. Legolas wiped off the tear and kissed my lips, 'theres nothing to forgive my love, but please dont drink by yourself again' he said.

'd-did something happ-pen?' i asked, my voice shaky, i had not forgotten what had happened in Rohan. Legolas engulfed me in a tight hug immediately, 'no no meleth nin, dont worry, youre safe, i wouldnt let anyone touch you' he said as he kissed my forehead .

'i love you and im sorry once again' i said. 'Its alright, i love you too my love' he replied.
