Going Against the March Warden (Haldir x fem!elf reader)

"Melamin, I beg of you to listen to reason," Haldir tried explaining yet again. You crossed your arms and waited for him to continue. "This battle will be dangerous. I cannot risk losing you." You sighed and sat next to him. "Haldir, I am aware of the danger which is why I must go. For it is I that cannot risk losing you. I am a fierce warrior as you well know. You trained me yourself. Please, Haldir." Your lover shook his head and said, "No, Y/N. You are to remain in Lothlorien. Please do not test me on this." With that, he left the room. Needless to say, he did not share your bed that night.

The next morning, Haldir led his army from Lothlorien toward Helm's Deep. The trek, while long, was nothing for an elf. The worst was yet to come as they marched to the aide of Man. Legions of Uru-khai were heading to Helm's Deep. Haldir led the army with confidence, knowing that he had trained them well, but his mind kept wandering back to you in Lothlorien. He hated leaving things the way he had, but you were a stubborn she-elf. If only he knew what was going to happen.

The army reached Helm's Deep and the battle was soon underway. Haldir fought enemy after enemy, taking them down. Soon, he found himself surrounded and Aragorn was ordering everyone to fall back to the Keep. Haldir began ushering his men back, but he wasn't quick enough. An Uru-khai attacked Haldir and, as he killed it, another came up behind him.

Haldir felt himself being pushed out of the way as the Uru-khai's blow landed on his savior. Haldir killed the beast and glanced at the elf who had saved him. He normally wouldn't have given the elf a second glance, but their helmet had come off somewhat and Haldir got a glimpse of their face. Your face. Haldir swore in Elvish as he lost his usually cool temper. He began slashing down each and every Uru-khai that got in his path until he was able to pick you up and get you behind the walls of the Keep.

Haldir remained at your side while you healed. He wanted to be the first person you saw when you opened your eyes. It was a few days after the battle that it finally happened. "You disobeyed me, Y/N." Haldir's voice was soft, but you heard every word clearly. Your eyes opened and scanned the room before they finally landed on Haldir. "You are alive, and that is all that matters, Melamin," you said, your voice rough with disuse.

"You could have been killed. I told you to stay in Lothlorien with the Lady Galadriel. Why did you not listen?" You could tell he was fighting not to raise his voice. "How could you expect me to do that? If I had stayed, you would be dead and I could not bear it!" You hissed in pain as you tried to sit up. "Stop being so stubborn, Y/N and lie still," Haldir scolded, moving you to lie down again.

Haldir looked into your eyes and sighed. He was just relieved that you were alive. "Thank you, Melamin. You have saved me and I am grateful," he whispered, placing his forehead on yours. "You would have done the same if roles were reversed. I know you are angry with me, but I will not beg forgiveness for disobeying when my doing so has kept you in this world with me." Haldir couldn't be mad at you when you had only done what you felt was right. So, he gently kissed your forehead and whispered that he loved you. "I love you, Haldir," you told him softly as you drifted off to sleep again.
