Relationships: Bilbo x You (Modern girl in Middle Earth - with glasses)

Content: Fluff, angst

Summary: Finding yourself in Middle-earth with a dwarves' company is hard enough, so losing your glasses in a fight against the trolls is even worse! Lucky for you, Bilbo is here to help ...

It doesn't take long for you to get to Rivendell. You regret losing your glasses even more now that you are here. The place looks as beautiful as the sky ... Now isn't the time to complain, at least you are alive!

Hearing the brouhaha of the dwarves when you arrive, you smile. Focused on Elrond and Gandalf, neither of them seem to have noticed your presence. When Elrond invites them to dinner in Elvish, you have a hard time trying not to laugh.

Before the elves follow Elrond, you ask whoever is on the horse with you to help you dismount. You wait for his response as he seems to be asking Elrond for permission by exchanging glances. Your request must have been granted as he graciously dismounts you from his horse.

"My dear Gandalf, we found this young hobbit among the orcs," Elrond explains as you dismount. "Would she be an acquaintance of yours?"

Barely on the ground, you feel many arms around you, hugging you tightly. The dwarves seem very happy to find you alive. You didn't think they cared so much about you since you joined them not so long ago.

"You don't get rid of me that easily after all," you laugh.

Among those who hug you, you hear Fíli, Kíli, Bofur and even Dori. You would give anything to be able to see Bilbo's face right now. Is he grimacing with jealousy? Is he frowning and his mouth tight? Balin takes you out of your thinking.

"Let her breathe! Are you injured, miss (Y/N)?"

"No, I'm fine. Lord Elrond picked me up just in time!"

The dwarves seem reassured to find you safe and sound; even Thorin. The only one you haven't heard from is Bilbo. You try to look around for it, but you can't find him. You grab Fíli's sleeve who is easy to recognize with his blonde hair.

"Fíli, um, I didn't hear Bilbo. Is it here with you?" you ask embarrassed.

"Yes, he is! He went ahead with Gandalf."

"Oh I see ..." you answer, disappointed he isn't happy to see you again. "I'm afraid something might have happened to him..."

"He worried about you a lot," Fíli says in a low voice, approaching your ear. "He hasn't spoken since you were lost. I think he blames himself."

"W-what? But it's all my fault! I let go of his hand and─"

"Stop flirting with her, Fíli, and come with us!" Dwalin laughs. "There is one who will sulk even more if you continue."

The other dwarves giggle as they advance towards the entrance to Rivendell. It's finally Ori who takes your arm and guides you to Rivendell.

A good, warm bath has finally allowed you to remove all the dirt accumulated over the days; not to mention that they have no deodorant in Middle-earth!

Now you have washed your big, hairy feet, you have to admit you are indeed a hobbit. Even blurry, the ceiling also seems infinitely high to you ...

In a bedroom assigned to you by Elrond, you are terribly bored now you have finished your bath. After an elf brings you to your room, she tells you that someone will come and pick you up for dinner.
