The woods are beautiful.
It is not to say that they aren't always amazing, because they are, there is just something about them right now that was perfect. Just like my friends. For once in a very long time, I am truly happy.
"Hey Thranduil, lets play hide and seek!" Galather exclaims with a wide grin. I laugh loudly.
"What? That's for children!" I snort. He puts a hand on his hip.
"Says who?" He demands. I put my own hand on my hip.
"Says me, your king." I tease. He pouts causing Deryth to giggle.
"Come on Thranduil." Deryth says. I exhale loudly.
"Fine. Let's play." I sigh.
"Yes!" Galather punches the air then he turns to me. "Thranduil, you count and we'll hide."
"Okay," I say as I close my eyes and start to count.
1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8............30
"Here I come!" I shout, my voice echoing into the suddenly silent woods. I narrow my eyes as I scan the scape for any signs of Galather or Deryth. A quick moving shadow comes to my attention. I sprint softly towards it. Deryth sighs loudly and rolls her eyes from behind the bush. I smile at her and mouth 'sorry'. I hold out a hand to help her up. She takes it and I spin her around causing her cheeks to redden slightly.
I can't help myself. I lean forward and kiss her cheek.
