Legolas X Reader Stories!

The Past

     You awoke to hear Legolas sobbing.  You had just returned to Mirkwood, and he had been reunited with his father.  He invited you to sleep in his chamber, and you gladly agreed.  Now, it was around two in the morning, and Legolas was sitting up in bed, sobbing his poor heart out.  You sat up with him, and put your arm around him.  "What is wrong, melleth nin?"  You inquire. "Nothing, I'm fine, everything's ok."  He said.  "Love.  You never cry, and I know something's bothering you."  You say.  "It's just, being back here, reminds me of what the past was like.  Almost as long as I can remember, I haven't had anyone.  I had my dad, but he stayed upon his throne most of the time, wallowing in the past.  After my mother passed away, he lived in sorrow.  He was always hungover, trying to drink her away.  It was a last attempt not to die of grief.  He was of little comfort to me.  I stayed in my chambers most of the time.  I cried all day, and at night I cried myself to sleep.  I had already lost my mother, and now it seemed like I'd lost my father, too.  Being back here reminds me of it all too much."  He says.  "I didn't know you went through all that.  It sounds like you've had a pretty hard life.  No wonder you're always so quiet.  I just wish I could do something."  You say.  You start to cry too, and you put your head on his shoulder.  You put your arm around him.  " There there.  It's ok.  We have all eternity to make up for it all, all eternity to make it all better.  Now I know you've been through a lot, and you've been hiding this all for a thousand years, but I promise you, you're going to get through this thing."  You say.   He drops his head.  You pull his head to your chest and twirl your fingers through his long blonde hair.  He falls asleep on your chest, and you eventually fall asleep too.  You didn't know he hid this secret.  And you were determined to make it better for him.
