Alive

Chapter 6

It took ten days for me to get healed enough and actually go home. I have to be on crutches for four weeks then hopefully they will be gone. "I hope you like staying down stairs for awhile." Thranduil says. Apparently they moved my whole room to the guest room down stairs. I walk in and it's pretty neat since Thranduil organized it, I think. "Who made this?" I ask. "Legolas. He is more organized then I'll ever be." Thranduil says. 'Of course.' I think. "Thanks dad." I say. "You're welcome. Dinner is ready when you want it." He says and shuts the door.
Why is he so nice right now? He is never this nice to me. I push that question back and try to make myself comfortable. I grab my iPod and listen to music until I fall asleep. I dream of the same dream with mom and dad. But this time they told me how proud they were that I woke up and managed to get better. It was very confusing, why would I see them? I never dream about them. When I wake up it is two in the morning. 'I was asleep for that long?' I ask myself. 'But I've only been asleep for twenty minutes.'
I go to the kitchen and grab left over food and try to eat. I eventually force myself to eat because I know when I wake up my morning will be hectic. But something is on my mind, my parents. I know I could've died, but why would they tell me to stay? Isn't that someone else's job? It doesn't make sense at all.
I push that question aside and realize Legolas is standing in the doorway that leads to the dinning room. "You okay?" He ask. "Yeah." I say. "I heard a scream, thought you might have had a nightmare." He tells me. Did I scream? "I just had a weird dream." I say. "About?" He ask. "My parents." I reply. "Want to talk about it?" He says. Could I really tell my brother my dream and then he tells Thranduil? I can't talk about this with Thranduil, no how. "No." I say putting my plate away and going back to bed.

When I woke up everything was hectic. I couldn't put on my backpack or get on the bus. Eowyn was very worried about me. Arwen asked if I would do okay. And Galadriel wanted to help me. I refused her offer, that would be a burden on her because we both have classes on the other side of the building. At lunch Kili wasn't there, it was shocking. Maybe he was sick. Then I realized Fili wasn't there either, maybe they moved? Who knows, there's so much racing in my mind I can't keep it straight.
When I finally got home I texted Kili and he didn't reply. 'Why? What could have happened?' I think. 'He couldn't have disappeared and left me with no one.' I push down that thought and try to do my homework. 'Maybe he will answer back.' I think.
