Unexpected// Legolas

Wonder

I woke up to the smell of bacon. I got dressed into a black leggings and a green v-neck shirt. I got my black boots on, it's a simple outfit. I was cold to say so I got my jumper as well. I went down to the kitchen and saw Legolas cooking. My lay out of my house is kinda odd. I too floor has my room, the master bedroom and bathroom and one smaller room. The bottom floor has the kitchen and bathroom and two other bedrooms. My bedroom has a porch and so does the bottom one.

I was always grumpy in the morning. "Goodmorning Rose" Legolas sounded chipper. I grunted in response and layed my head on the table. I smelled food and looked up to see bacon waffles and berries. "You remembered?" I was dumbfounded. I started eating, while eating I did my happy dance. Legolas chuckled at me. I flipped him off and continued eating.

After eating I thought of an idea. "Grab your bow. We're going target practicing" I said and got my bow and quiver out of the closet at the door. I strapped my quiver onto my shoulder along with my bow. Legolas came next to me. We walked to the paddock the horses were in. "Let me try to ride Wonder." I knew wonder would buck him off. Nobody expect me could ride him. That's how I got him. I accidentally rode him, I was in the field he was in and I was in a hurry. Me and Aragon were playing and I needed a getaway. I climbed the tree he was under and jumped on his back. I grabbed his mane and told him to start galloping. It was funny, right there and then I felt like he was made for me.

"Sure, enjoy. We are practicing without saddles and bridles." Oh,this was going to be fun. I got on Sparten no problem. Legolas gave me his bow and tried getting on Wonder. Wonder was much taller than Legolas, standing nineteen point three hands high. I laughed at the sight. I trained Wonder to lay down so I could get on him. The way I got him to do that is I tapped his shoulder twice. Legolas tried to call Wonder to the fence to get on him, but, Wonder didn't move. Legolas looked at Wonder. I was still sat on Sparten. "Do you still want to ride him?" I asked him. "Yes, I will not give up!" Legolas stated.

The only way I could saddle Wonder was if he was laying down. I would climb on before his girth was on. When I was in I moved the girth to the other side then I fastened it. It was a long progress. Luckily he bowed down his head when I want to put on his bridle.

Legolas was still trying to get up and failed miserably. "Fine! I give up! You clearly hexed him!" He started blaming me. "No no no, I know him. Haven't you heard the legend of me?  Black Moon?" Black Moon was my nickname I got. I got it because Wonder was a pitch black horse with white socks. And I always wore black and a long black cloak. I got the cloak from my mother. I liked to cover my face with it. People could never see my face. I got the cloak from Aragon. I loved the cloak and only took it off when I needed to. "Wait, you are Black Moon?" He sounded surprised "The one and only" I said proudly. I dismounted Sparten and walked over to Wonder. I handed him his bow.

"Hey baby, you wanna show off" I asked Wonder, he nickerd and nudged my shoulder. I tapped his shoulder twice and he went and layed down. "See, not that hard." I climbed on his back and clicked my tongue. He raised and Legolas's mouth was open. "Careful you're drowling" laughed. "Come on. We don't have all day." He got on Sparten easier. He trotted out the paddock and into the forest. I pulled out a arrow and started galloping on Wonder. I nocked the arrow and pulled back, I let the arrow fly, it hit straight center and I continued.

The training ground I made especially for galloping on horses went in a circle. There was one turn that you could take and it took you to the human training grounds. After I did the circle I walked to the river. I let wonder drink and he walked to the grass. I was still on him, I left him to eat the grass while we wait for Legolas. "Have trouble finding the right turn?" I asked "No, just took my time" he said. I knew he took the wrong turn but I said nothing. I kicked Wonder lightly to say we have to move. I grabbed a hold of his mane to direct him. I stood in front of Legolas. "How does he listen to you?" I chuckled "We are very intune with each other." I said. "I don't believe you. Show me" he somehow got the genius idea. I laughed "Very well hold this." I handed him my quiver and bow.

I stretched out my arms. I kicked Wonder lightly again and he walked forward. I kicked his left side and he turned left, I left him to walk like this for a while. I did tha same to his right side. I kicked him again and he started trotting. I took him in a circle around Legolas. I kicked him again and he started cantering, again in a circle. I kicked him again and he started galloping. "Easy" I said softly and he slowed down into a canter. I said it again and he started trotting and again and we were back to walking.

I stopped Wonder a little bit away from legolas, who, was still on Sparten. I took my legs to his shoulders and kicked him lightly again. He reared up and kicked his front legs. "Good boy, good boy Wonder!" I said and patted his neck. "Wow, that was magical!" Legolas said. I climbed off of him and lead him to the paddock. "Wonder" I said to grab his attention. "Follow" I said and he started following me. "Wow, how many time did you have to practice that?" Legolas asked. I shrugged and said "I didn't really. Wonder and I have a connection. Where ever I go Wonder goes." I said. "I think I forgot to say that he is the son of Shadowfax" I said.

I went inside. The day went quickly and we ate. I drinked and got tipsy and wet to bed. I actually didn't drink as much as I thought. I still have one bottle of red wine, a barrel of Ale and my whiskey. Guess I could hide it in my room. I decided to leave the barrel of Ale here.

The next day was the same. We didn't got training, we just sat and talked. It was refreshing to just talk. I learnt a lot about him. We actually have a lot in common...
