All my life with Thranduil. (Thranduil fan fiction) rated M for mature.

The start of forever.

The above picture is my eye. I do not wear contacts and have none of that weird stuff that changes eye color. I have been a blue eyed Burnett since I was born. I had no makeup on, that's all natural shadows from lights. :3

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I stared at Thranduil with a total state of shock, and could not awnser. He urged me to answer but no words came from my mouth and suddenly all that has happened flooded back in my mind. I... I was mad at him! I didn't want to be in his presents... Well I did but I could not let him off with out him apologizing. He was going to ask Tobostiel for her hand first and that only makes things worse! What if that is the same ring he was gonna ask her with?!

I jumped from his bed and raced out of his room knowing that his strength would not permit him to follow. Legolas came from no where laughing and running as well.

"Nana are you playing chase with Ada?," he chimed at me. I stopped and looked at him. It's more of a game of hide and seek. I hushed him and smiled at him, but knowing good and well I was playing a real game of hide and seek. You can't tell your Ada where I'm going or I lose, and when I lose I can't play any more I have to work. "I know how u love to play so don't tell your father ok?" With that I walked away from the young prince as he scurried off to find Tauriel.

I ascended to the depts of the dungeons where every thing was musky and damp. I opened the door quietly and entered the old quarters quickly shutting the scuffed door behind me. I lit a almost dead candle and searched for the light. I ever so stupidly forgot it was upon the wall beside the door frame which I had just entered.

I set on the side of the unsteady bed and placed my face in my hands as I began to weep. I kept my crying low so no patrolling ears would hear and no searching king could hear. What am I doing with my life?! I am a foreign princess and I am running from my fears...I'm not seeking help, but instead running. Never run you stupid girl that's how you are stabbed in the back. I ran from Thranduil so he found a new lover, but he ran from his fears and was almost killed. What does he fear so much that it would almost consume him?

*the door knob began to jiggle and turn* I frozen with fear sat right where I was as the door fluttered open to reveal a now shocked king.

"Ercassiel what are you doing here in the old guards quarters? I figured you fled from here... I assumed i ran u off... I'm sorry Ercassiel I'm sorry for everything. " he looked down at the ground as he slowly entered the room. "Look I never meant to hurt you. Never ever and I'm so sorry you thought I loved Tobostiel. I never loved her I was always in love with you. Your ring was hand made... I made it, it took me four months and it was specially designed for you." He looked at me as I grew paler, and his face filled with worry.

"Ercassiel? Are you ok...?" He quickly rushed towards me as I felt my charm begin to heat. It only got hotter as he got closer, as he held my body to his it turned white and memories flooded my mind. His laughter, his playful smile, our walks by the moon shining river, his soft kisses, him crying out trying to find me, him lying under the dying hala, his sigh of relief when he found out I wasn't hurt, his gently breathing as he rested in his bed healing, our fight, our miss understanding, him fighting to find me while still in pain, him holding me against his wide chest as he brought me back home, him holding my body protectively, me running from our love because I let fear over come me.

I was brought back to reality with him hugging me and crying in my hair continuing to cry out his sorrow filled apologies. I wrapped my arms around him and cried into his chest as he quieted he began to wipe and kiss away my tears.

"Please Cassie don't cry? I hate seeing you cry... I hate knowing I'm the reason you cry. Please let me help you gather the few things you have brought down here and allow me to take you back upstairs where the sunlight brightens your skin and your hair and eyes glisten in the moonlight. Please allow me to take you back up where its warm and cozy instead of damp and cold?" Thranduil gently caressed my face as he brushed some of my stray strands away.

"I'm so sorry... I never knew. I thought you loved her, and I couldn't bare to see you with someone so cold... You have a warm heart but you hide it in the face of fear because you do not wish to have the things you love taken." I looked up at him as he kissed my forehead.

"You speak the truth Cassie... And I'm sorry I have been cold towards you, but I did not wish to bring pain to you. I seen how it hurt you when I pushed the hala and almost died. I tried to keep you from the pain I would cause you, but I see by being cold towards you only caused you more pain." He kissed my last tear away and picked me up.

"I can walk Thranduil..." I murmured. He smiled at me and set me down. I looked up at him as he ran his hand through my hair.

"At least let me hold your hand...?" He looked down at me and held out his hand. I smiled and took his warm hand which quickly clasped mine. Before I really had a chance to notice our fingers were intertwined and we were walking hand in hand.

We reached the doors and heard whispers from the other side. Thranduil looked down at me and whispered in my ear. "Why don't we give them a surprise?" I nodded.
