Thorin P/O/V:

I watch the others below as they comb the stacks of gold for the Arkenstone. It has been five days and they still haven't found it. Grumbling to myself I turn away walking towards one of the counting rooms where I know Elysian and Balin are currently combing through the contents. "Thorin look what we found." Elysian holds up some silver gems which I reach out taking them from her slowly "These are the gems of Lasgalen. I know an elf lord who would pay a hefty price for these." Elysian freezes up slightly and I drop the gems on the table "Can I speak with you a moment?" 

She follows me out into the hall "Is something the matter my king?" my heart swells at the name and I shake my head slightly taking her hands in mine and sitting on a bench inlaid in the wall "Nothing is wrong my love, I merely wanted to give you something." I take out of my pocket a silver necklace with a dragon pedant that has diamonds inlaid in the wings. 

"Thorin it's beautiful

"Thorin it's beautiful." I smile softly motioning for her to turn around. She does so bringing her hair up into a ponytail leaving her neck bare. Gently I secure the necklace brushing her hair back into place "Thank you." I smile "You deserve nothing but the best." she leans closer brushing her lips over mine "I love you." I reach a hand up cupping her face "I love you to." she smiles softly taking one of my hands in hers "If something was wrong you would tell me wouldn't you?" I nod looking at her confused "Of course."

She smiles light filling her eyes "I should return to the others I'm the only one who can reach the top shelves." I chuckle softly kissing the back of her hand then her cheek "I'll see you later my love." she stands and drifts back into the room gracefully.
