3rd person PoV:

Legolas leaned against an almost dead-looking tree that guarded the doors to Moria, keeping his head down. The rest of the fellowship would have no mind to occupy themselves with just leaning against a tree but he did so. There was something on his mind that was slowly eating away from him from the inside out.

Ever since the elf had first layed eyes on the man it was like a switch had flicked inside his mind, condemning him to gaze longingly at the man for the rest of his life. He was in love and it was a mind-numbing curse that ate away at him. Whenever he was around the man he would feel nervous and he would stutter in every sentence he would say to him and there was nothing he could do for Aragorn had already found someone...he had already found his true love and Legolas was not that someone.

Now they just so happened to be waiting for the doors to Moria to open and he felt himself wanting to be closer to Aragorn, he wanted to be comforted when they entered the darkness of the mines...he wanted to feel loved. It was weak and selfish of him, he knew but Legolas could not even begin to tear his azure eyes away from the man, hoping...almost begging with his eyes to come over to him and hug him and soothe him as he cried into his shoulder. Though instead he had to hold back the tears, clench his fists and hope that his fear would not show on his face. He was afraid, he dared admit, but Aragorn had Arwen.

Aragorn walked over to him, leaning against the grey tree himself and turning his head to the side to face Legolas, who had his head tilted down "Are you okay?" The man asked, putting his hand on Legolas's shoulder.

"I am fine, do not worry" Legolas answered, barely keeping eye-contact with Aragorn.

Aragorn grabbed Legolas's hand, making Legolas shiver at the warmness that radiated through him at the touch to his colder skin "I am your friend, you can tell me anything" He muttered and slightly caressed the palm of the elf's hand.

Legolas contemplated this and sighed, turning his head to face Aragorn. He had tears in his eyes. He could tell him anything? He thought, even of his love? "I am just..." He muttered and stopped as soon as that thought entered his mind. Aragorn had Arwen, he would not want Aragorn to turn his back on him and throw away their friendship just for his unrequited love "...afraid...of the mines" He lied, though it was not a complete lie. He was afraid of the mines but not as much as he was afraid of breaking the friendship between him and the man.

Aragorn turned to look at him with a comforting smile playing on his lips "It's okay to be afraid, Mellon nin...I would be surprised if you weren't" He said, eyes reflecting the moonlight.

Legolas blushed slightly and looked away, hand pulling itself away from the warmth of his. Just then the door to Moria opened and Aragorn grabbed Legolas's hand again, pulling him along beside him into the darkness. Aragorn pulled his hand away once they were inside fully.

Legolas sighed. This is just how it is, he told himself, this is just how it will ever be. He wished to himself that his unrequited love for the man could be pulled away just as quick as his hand had. He wanted this pain to end.

Very short I know :(
