First fic on this account!!

I'M SO EXCITED, BUT NO ONE'S GONNA READ IT!!

"Come on." Louis whispered softly under his breath, pressing his hand over the cool lock. He shut his eyes, willing himself to focus on just the lock. "Come on."

His eyes fluttered open, taking a minute to adjust to the darkness of the night, when he heard the small click. He smiled softly, glancing around him, making sure the coast was clear before pushing the door in. It creaked, and he froze, shoulders tensing.

After a moment, no one came running out to see what was going on, so he continued to push the door open, stepping inside and shutting the door behind him. He turned with a smile, seeing the many rows of sleeping horses.

He stepped away from the white, wooden door with the dark silver lock, heading down past the many sleeping horses, all of which seemed to glow in the moonlight that was coming through the small windows, until he made his way to the end of the rows.

"Hey there, Whisper." Louis smiled, greeting the white horse that was already awake and awaiting his arrival. "Knew I was coming, huh girl?" he smiled, running a hand down neck, brushing back the silvery whisps of hair before leaning up on his toes to press his lips lightly between her nostrils. "Fancy a run, love?"

She took a step back, her head jerking up, almost in a nod. Louis laughed, reigning her down to calm her slightly, hushing her, knowing if they made too much noise, they'd get caught.

"Guess we best be off then." he smiled, clicking the gate on her stall open and stepping in beside her. She knelt forwards on her front two knees, allowing the blue eyed elf to easily climb onto her back. Once he was seated, she stood back up, and started to trot out, her hooves silent on the ground, which was covered in hay.

Louis ran his hand along her neck, glancing around warily for any signs of someone waking as they made their way through the large field and down to the small stream at the end of it.

"Shh." Louis soothed as she started to whine. "Whisper, shh, it's fine." he tried to calm her, but she was bucking back, and Louis had to jump off, running around to stand in front of her and raise his hands, calming her almost instantly. "Hey girl, what's wrong?" he cooed, walking closer to stroke down her face.

He heard a twig snap in the trees behind him, and spun around quickly, his white shirt billowing out in the wind.

"Did you really think you could just sneak out?" the brunette girl smiled, stepping out from behind the trees, a smile on her lips. Louis groaned, pressing a hand over his heart.

"Lord! Eleanor, you scared us!" he shook his head, meeting the brunettes eyes.

"You're the idiot who thought he could sneak out." she shrugged, walking over. Whisper took a step back, but she didn't even acknowledge it. "Where were you even off to at such a time?"

"Nowhere." Louis said, trying to keep his voice even as he backed closer to Whisper, pressing a hand to her neck to keep her calm.

"Perrie's here." Eleanor noted as she realized that Whisper was nowhere near calming down. A soft groan came from the forest before the blonde girl came out, her hair tucked into a floral headband behind her ears.

Louis pressed his hand behind his horses ear, willing her to calm down. Within moments she had her head down, eating the soft grass.

"Thanks for that one." Perrie rolled her eyes, crossing her arms over her chest, her lavender dress falling to the ground.

"But shouldn't you be in bed?" Eleanor asked, tipping her head to the side. Louis bit down gently on his bottom lip as the two girls shook their heads. Eleanor sighed, knowing what Louis would try and manipulate her into. She answered his question before he could ask. "Noon tomorrow, got it?"

"Yup." Louis nodded.

"If you're back any later than then, we'll know something's wrong, alright?" Perrie added. Louis nodded, pecking them each lightly on the cheek before mounting his horse once more and starting off into the forest, leaving the two female elves behind.

"So who's going out tomorrow morning to look for him?" Eleanor asked, her and Perrie both facing where the elvish prince had rode off to, their arms crossed over their chests.

"I did it last time." Perrie noted.

"And I did it the three times before that." Eleanor shot her a glare.

"I'll get one of his sisters to occupy his mother, we can both go out?" Perrie offered.

Eleanor smiled, nodding her head as her and Perrie both turned their seperate ways, heading back to their own houses to get a good nights sleep. Knowing Louis, he'd be passed out in a bush when they went out looking for him the next morning.
