Legolas imagines

imagine: Legolas getting hurt

Me and Legolas are patrolling in mirkwood forest and it is very quiet... almost too quiet. Legolas maybe we should go back I whisper and he turns around you are scared? He asks. I shake my head no of course not im never scared I just... think we should go back I say. He smiles slightly we'll be ok y/n come on and I sigh alright. He turns back around and I follow him reluctantly. Soon I hear rustling so I turn around seeing a bush and I take out my bow. Show yourself! I say... big mistake three big orcs come charging out at us. Legolas! I say getting his attention while bringing out my sword. The first orc comes at me going for my stomach area so I block it and quickly stab his chest and then I hear what I dreaded to the most. I turn around and see Legolas on the ground with two orcs crowding him. I gasp and run over stabbing one in the back and it turns around and we get into a fight which eventually I win but soon I feel a sharp pain in my shoulder so I turn around to see the other orc smiling evily and then he tries to stab me again but I block it and we get into a good fight he is strong but not strong enough. He manages to get hold of me so I head but him which makes him release me and I spin around and slice his head clean off and I turn around falling to my knees beside Legolas. I see his wound on his stomach I sigh and feel for a pulse and I sigh of relief when I find it. Ok Legolas please hang on I say and then stand up wondering how to get him back. I sigh im going to have to carry him i mumble and eventually lift him up onto my back. Mother of Eru he's heavier than he looks.

After what feels like an hour almost crawling from the weight im carrying. I huff out of breath when I get to the doors guards open the doors! I yell and their eyes widen and quickly open the door. I sigh thanks for the help I mumble. My lord please help! I say and very soon I hear the kings footsteps on the stone floor and hear him gasp. Guards one of you take Legolas to the healers! He commands and someone takes him off me and I fall to the ground because one Legolas is heavy and two I have a wound in my shoulder. Y/n what happened? He asks uh we got... ambushed by... orcs my lord I say trying to catch my breath and then I stand up. Are you injured? He asks and I look at my shoulder um... no im fine I say looking at him. He nods alright good we wouldn't want our best fighter injured now what about my son? He says and I sigh im sorry my lord I couldn't get to him in time the orcs were a lot stronger than they usually are but those ones were more like urak hai. Did you fight them off? He asks and I nod yes my lord I managed to. He nods good you may rest y/n he says. Thank you my lord I say and I walk back out the doors.

I don't go too far into the forest but its a fair distance from the castle. I climb a tree and sit on a branch quite high from the ground and position myself so my I am sitting against the trunk of the tree and my right leg is hanging off the side. I sigh and let a couple of tears slide down my cheeks. How could I let that happen? I will never forgive myself its my fault Legolas is in the healers I should have been quicker. I let everyone down thranduil, the guard and especially Legolas. I sigh as tears pour down my cheeks as I bow my head down as this is the moment where I lose my dignity.

Later at night

I have been sitting in this tree for hours and I still can't pull myself together. What happened with Legolas is the worst thing I have ever done. Soon I hear light footsteps on the ground below me so I lift my head and look down and see Legolas. He looks up and sees me then makes his way up the tree to the branch I am sitting on. Hey what are you doing up here? Have you been crying? What's wrong? He asks. Woah to many questions at once I mumble... ok I am up here to think and yes I have been crying I say and he nods why? I sigh because you getting hurt was my fault I should have got to you quicker I... I let you down I say. Y/n I don't ever want to hear you say that again it was not your fault and I should have listened to you about turning back and no you did not let me down you could never do that. I look up at him really? I say and he nods yes really but I do have one question how did you get me back to the castle? I smile well that's a fun story sarcasm dripping in my voice. Alright what did you do? He asks and I sigh

After you got stabbed I managed to kill the rest of the orcs but after that I actually didn't know how to get you back so I ended up carrying you I say and his eyes widen you carried... me? He asks. I nod and believe me you are a lot heavier than you look I say and he chuckles. So are you ok now? I ask and he nods yes the wound wasn't that deep I just passed out from it being unexpected he says and I nod as long as your ok. He smiles meh it will take a lot more than an orc to kill me y/n. I go to say something and then stop realising he is right so I just shrug and lean back against the tree again. I let out a sigh as silence takes over us. I look down and start playing with a piece of string that is hanging off my tunic unaware that I have ice blue eyes watching me. I look up at the prince when I notice him watching something. What? I say looking around to see what he was looking at and when I turn around again he is closer than before. He smiles slightly im looking at you he says and I get confused why? I ask. He lifts his arm and brushes a loose bit of my hair behind my ear with his hand because your beautiful he says softly. I look down to hide the blush on my face what is happening? I look up at him.

No one has ever said that to me before I say quietly and he smiles well its true. I smile back slightly and he sits closer to me and I look at the ground below us. I see a leaf fall from one of the taller trees in front of us and I fix my gaze on that. Then I realise how fast my heart is beating right now Eru help me I say in my head. Y/n look at me he says and I lift my head and look at him. I can tell your panicking but I do not understand why he says softly. How could you tell? I ask and he smiles your hands are shaking. I look down at my hands and see that they are in fact shaking. I look back up at him to see he is waiting on an answer. I... im not used to... physical contact I say and he nods I know that, you have told me but you didn't move away he says and I sigh your right but i... I stop in the middle of my sentence. You what? He asks and I shrug and then sigh again ugh I can't lie to you anymore.

Alright that isn't true im sorry for lying but I only said that because... you have an... affect on me I have a lot of things going on in my head when your around me... I don't know why. I have also experienced a lot of different things inside that I haven't felt before in my life and it scares me. I don't know what you did to me but I want you to stop it I say and he chuckles after taking in the information. So your saying you like me as more than a friend? He asks and I shrug i don't know. He smiles well unfortunately I cannot stop it for you but I can help you he says. How? I ask being oblivious and he smirks by liking you back which I do. I look up at him shocked you do? I say and he nods I do but you do not need to be scared he says. I don't think I can do that... liking someone is very scary I say and he nods understandingly. It can be but it can also be a good thing he says as he gets closer to me which makes butterflies explode in my stomach. How? I say and he smirks because if you like me back then I can do this he says but before I could question him he leans in and kisses me softly on the lips and I must admit although its scary it's a nice feeling I have butterflies in my stomach but I also have a warm feeling inside. He smirks as he pulls away so did that have an affect on you? He asks and I nod yes I say shyly. He smiles and pulls me close to hug me as we sit on this branch for the rest of the night since I fell asleep from the feeling of legolas's heartbeat close to me and the warmth radiating off him.
