I hope this is longer. I'm debating when you (the reader) and Legolas get together. I have a few scenes picked out, but any requests will be greatly appreciated. Anyway I hope this is good.

You were resting on a mountain with huge rocks. Sam was cooking something, and Boromir was teaching Merry and Pippin how to fight with a sword.

You kept glancing back at Legolas. Once he caught you. After that you distracted yourself by watching the fighting lesson.

"Get away from the blade, Pippin... on your toes... good, very good... I want you to react, not think."
"Should not be to hard." Sam muttered.
"Move your feet." You called out.
"Quite good, Pippin." Merry said.
"Thanks." Pippin said a wide smile on his face.

You were in a good spot you could hear everyone's conversations. Gimli was trying to convince Gandalf to go through Moria. Legolas was talking to Aragorn in Elvish.
"I do not like Boromir."
"Why is that?"Aragorn asked.
"He is arrogant and a fool." Legolas said while making a face.
"Are those the only reasons?" Aragorn said a knowing smile on his face.
"Yes!" Legolas said defensively.
"It has nothing to do with (y/n)?" Aragorn pushed.
"Not at all!" Legolas' face had turned bright red.

You chuckled and turned back to the hobbits lesson. The two hobbits tackled Boromir and you burst out laughing.

"What is that?" Sam asked.
"Nothing... just a wisp of cloud." Gimli said.
"It's moving fast... against the wind." Boromir said worried.
"Crebain from Dunland!" Legolas cried.
"Hide!" Aragorn yelled.

As you were running to hide, you fell and felt your knee pop out of its socket. You cried out in pain. Legolas ran to you and picked you up. He carried into the long grass. He lay you down, then lay down next to you.
"(Y/n) are you okay?" He whispered.
"I think I dislocated my knee," you said wincing because of the pain. "I'll be fine don't worry."

Gandalf was the first person to get out of the place where he was hiding.
"Spies of Saruman. The passage south is being watched. We must take the pass of Caradhras!"
"We cannot," Legolas said, carrying you out of your hiding place. "(Y/n) has dislocated her knee." He lay you down on a rock.
"I'll take care of this," he said. "Someone get me a weed!"
"Just pop it back into its socket!" You cried.
"No. This must be treated." He said as he turned away to look for a plant. While his back was turned, Boromir came and popped your knee back into its socket. You cried out with pain, tears were streaming down your face.
"There you go my lady." Boromir smiled.
"What are you doing? You could have injured her even more!" Legolas yelled. You could barely hear what he was saying because of the ringing in your ears probably caused by the pain.

"Can you get up?" Legolas asked. You tried to stand up, but fell for your knee was still recovering.
"Put your arm around my shoulder. I will assist you." Legolas offered.
"Thank you." You smiled at him as you slung your arm over his shoulder.

His arm was around your waist. You had never been this close to a guy before. If you ever got hurt you would walk it off, but you felt comfortable with Legolas helping you. You blushed slightly, but quickly hid it.

"What are we waiting for? Let's go." You said. Gandalf grumbled looking at you worriedly.
"I'll be fine!" You pushed. Gandalf grumbled again.
"Well to the pass of Caradhras." He said.

You winced at every step, but you refused to let anyone see. Especially Legolas. You didn't want him to see you in this weak state.
"(Y/n)," he said worriedly. "Are you sure you can do this?"
"Yes. I'm fine." Of course you were not fine, but the quest must go on.
