Arwen made me have a bath and change into my white and tan dress. ~See media section~ after I was dressed, Lindir brought my dinner into my room. I read while I ate and after I walked out into the starlight. The grass was soft and cool under my bare feet. I walked into the small pavilion that over looked the river and waterfalls.
"May I join you?" I turned around to see Legolas standing behind me. He was wearing the same silver shirt when I first met him. I smiled and replied
"Yes please do." He walked over to me and leaned against the white stone ledge. I watched the starlight twinkle on the water. Legolas was looking out as well. I leaned against the ledge next to him.
"Why did you never come to visit me?" I asked. Legolas didn't look at me and replied
"Why did you never come back?" I looked down at the stone ledge and started to pick at the moss.
"I am not sure." When I dared to look at him, his blue eyes had tears.
"My lord, what is wrong?" Legolas looked at me. My hand had a mind of its own and I wiped the tear from his eye.
"Vilya, I did want to visit you. But my father made me stay behind." I gently placed my hand on top of his.
"I understand. That is not your fault. Forgive my words." Legolas's hand was on my cheek. I looked him in the eyes.
"Vilya, I said call me Legolas." I smiled and pulled away from him.
"I know. See you tomorrow." He gave a small smile and I walked back to my room.

Back in my room, I saw that Aragorn was sitting on my bed.
"Vilya, I wanted to ask you something." I sat down next to him and he placed a warm arm around my shoulders.
"Do you love Legolas?" I sat there thinking about my answer.
"Uncle, I am unsure. My emotions are mixed up." Aragorn smiled and rubbed my back.
"I can understand that. Now get some rest and I will see you at the council tomorrow morning." Before he opened the door, I asked
"You love Arwen, don't you?" He turned to me.
"Yes I do."
"She is going to the Grey Havens. Father said she must." Aragorn gave a sad smile. Then I saw that Arwen had given Aragorn her evenstar.
"I know. Your father has already told me."
"I am sorry, Uncle." He smiled and closed the door. Then I lay down on the my bed.
