Forbidden Love (A Legolas x Aragorn story)

Chapter 7

*I am pretty sure that Legolas is grinding his jaw right now.*

ELROND'S POV
It was as I suspected. At least I know that he hasn't fallen for another woman - my daughter is quite the revengeful type!

"How long have you known?" I asked softly. Aragorn shook his head.

"I don't really know..." he looked very awkward.

He wasn't telling me something - Aragorn was never usually this nervous.

"W-when Legolas and I kissed..." he stuttered. What?!
"When???" I almost shouted.

"When we were away... it was nothing big but it made me realise... I'm homosexual."

"I... I see. Does Legolas feel the same?"

"That's the problem! I can't tell and I'm fretting non-stop about it!" he cried frustratedly. I will have to talk to Legolas. I thought.

ARAGORN'S POV

The rest of the night we talked. About everything. I sighed, wishing that the beautiful blonde elf who so often crept into my dreams was beside me.

"Aragorn," I looked at my foster father. "Leave telling Arwen to me. But are you certain that this is what you want?"

I felt a rush of determination flood through me. "I have never been more. When will you tell her?" I asked.
"Honestly, I do not know. But I do know that you and Legolas may be together - just not publicly - yet."

I deflated.

Well, if it meant that me and Legolas could actually be together then I would do anything. It was so sudden but... he was my all.

LEGOLAS' POV
Where was Aragorn? He went into Elrond's study but that was over an hour ago. I could still hear muffled voices, deep in conversation. Aragorn... I wished that we could be together. Sincerely and truly. I hadn't stopped thinking about him since... I first saw him at the council.

He captivated me. I wanted him. But I knew it could not be. Arwen, Elrond, Gandalf, surely we'd hurt them all if we were to be together. But that kiss... I haven't stopped thinking about that either.

Aragorn's lips were so soft, nothing like I thought that they'd be, being a hunter and all. I was craving more - why was I holding back?

Suddenly, Aragorn rushed out of the study and snapped me out of my stupor. He looked very excited. "Legolas!" he called to me. "Come!"

Confused, I took his hand as he pulled me into an abandoned room. After we were both in, he locked the room behind us. "A-Aragorn?" He smiled cheekily in response.

(A/N ok I'm sorry. I can't do fluff. But imma give it a try 😂)

He took my face gently in his hands, and leaned in. Our lips collided and we kissed, passionately but sweetly. Nothing was rushed, we were together and that was all that mattered.

After a few minutes we parted and hugged fiercely. No words were needed. "Why now?" I asked gently. "What did Elrond say?"
"He supports us. Arwen... is a different matter but he said that he will deal with her. But for now, we must keep it on the down low."

I nodded understandingly. Aragorn was going to be a King and I was a prince. But I realized now why I took no interest in the elf maidens back in Mirkwood. I was gay and Aragorn was the only one for me.

AAND DONE!

I'm sorry that this chapter is actually really short - I just needed to get it out to you guys as I don't want to keep you waiting.

QOTC: what do you think is going to happen next?
