* * *

Soft singing met as you both lounged in the grass together, Maglor's fingers plucking the strings of his harp. His ministrations creating such beautiful music, you rested on your side, propped up by your elbow as you watched him. The gold of his harp gleaming in the afternoon sun in sparkling spots as the rays beamed through the leaves of the trees.

Maglor resting his back against the tree while he played, navy blue eyes focused on you as you listened. You couldn't help but smile loving everything about this moment and being with Maglor. These free days were far and few in between with the raging war and his Oath, yet it was worth all of the waiting as these moments were precious and priceless.

A small section of the gardens having long become your sanctuary, here no one disturbed you both. Not even Maedhros would interrupt, though he had stumbled upon you both several times unintentionally... Here you could be together and for a short while not worry about the outside world.

Maglor looked beautiful, his black hair left loose and long but a small crown of baby's breath sat atop his head that you had fashioned for him. He wore a dark blue tunic, richly embroidered with gold flowers around the high collar and around the buttonholes. Maglor's robe was set to the side as the spring weather was warm enough that it wasn't needed, save inside.

Admiration was certainly set blazing within Maglor in turn, watching the way the wind rustled your hair brushing up against your soft skin. Eyes dragging down to your lips and the small smile that pulled at the corners of them, and the way that you looked back at him with as much love as he had for you.

You looked lovely in your pale and light weight robes, plain and lacking exquisite gems and embroidery. It was perfectly simple, and you looked just as beautiful, a simple circlet of silver sitting upon your head, and a thin silver ring on your middle finger... Both gifts that Maglor had given you. Both of which you wore with pride at every opportunity that you could.

Maglor couldn't help but pause in his work, the music stopping abruptly as his heart swelled so much it felt as though it might burst. Such blissfulness had not been felt in ages, nor had he ever felt such love for someone before.

"Maglor is something the matter?" You ask him in a gentle voice, furrowing your brows together with mild concern. It was not often he would stop in the middle of playing a song for you, and slowly you began to sit up watching the way Maglor gently moved to lay his harp off to the side. Finally he slowly shook his head at your words,

"Come here, Y/N.." He said in a soft voice, arms out stretching to welcome you easily, quietly you scooted across the grass. Once close enough, Maglor gathered you into his arms, lifting to put you into his lap holding you close to him.

"Are you sure nothing is wrong my love?" You asked him gently, bringing a hand up to cradle his face, fingers brushing away his black hair and tucking it behind his pointed ear. Maglor only gave you a soft smile at the loving gesture, leaning his head into your touch with a low sigh.

"All is well, I assure you meldanya..." He whispered in a tender voice, bringing a hand to your neck as he gently pulled you forward so he could kiss you. Lips gently brushing against yours before finally melding against yours, his other arm wrapping around your waist holding you close to him. You wrapped your arms around his neck, leaning further into Maglor humming softly.

"Have I ever told you how much I love you?" Maglor whispered, continuing to brush his lips against yours before he kissed you again. You couldn't help but smile widely into the kiss, feeling the warmth bloom across your face and the butterflies beginning to flutter in your stomach.

Maglor always knew precisely how to make you weak in the knees through such sweet words. Never had you felt so loved until you were with him, and you adored times like these where you both confessed your undying love for one another.

"Have I ever told you how much I love you too, Makalaure?" You asked softly, making him chuckle lightly before you kissed him, your hands sliding back to gently cup his face. Thumbs stroking his soft skin as you held his face,

"Nál melme coivienyo, meldanya." Maglor whispered to you, and you knew the words he spoke were true. That you were the love of his life... Your heart swelled in your chest and you couldn't help but kiss him once more with more passion, lingering for a long moment and met with no protest from Maglor who welcomed the affection. Finally you parted from him,

"As you are to me... I love you Maglor with all of my heart." You whispered to him with a warm smile on your face, a dreamy sigh escaped Maglor's lips as he pressed his forehead against yours. Nuzzling his nose softly against yours,

"I love you too Y/N, with all of my heart and fea..." He confessed sweetly to you, his one hand coming down from your neck to begin twirling your long hair between his fingers. The other still gripping your waist snugly as you sat in his lap, and you listened as he began to hum softly.

Both of your eyes closed as you took this time to just enjoy each other's presence and closeness. Neither of you able to get enough of each other, you couldn't be any more grateful for this time spent together alone. As rare as it was, it was a blessing every time it came around, Maglor only began to hum softly again unable to express himself in any other way.

You couldn't ask for a more perfect day than being in Maglor's arms and listening to sound of his sweet voice.
