Bilbo's POV

I started to follow Thorin, we went corridor by corridor, room by room, every single one of them empty and full of dust.
Then we stopped on a particular room, I think it was The Music Room, there were some violins, and horns, other things, and a Harp. I stopped at the entrance and he sat on an old chair, he grabbed the Harp and started playing a song. It sounded really sweet, I took off the ring and sat my back resting on a wall outside the room, and closed my eyes. The music filled my mind and made me feel calm, then I took a big breath and he stopped.
"Hello?" He said in a calm voice. I couldn't do anything but to enter, my face low. (A/N Sorry, but is low okay?) Thorin looked at me his eyes wide open, he stood up and went to hug me. I was really shocked. His arms surrounded me, making me feel safe. Then he whispered "I thought you were dead.." He said separating us, putting his hands on each side of my shoulders and looking me right in the eyes. "Uh, no, I was fighting and then I..." I couldn't actually remember what happened. "Doesn't matter" He said looking me with those eyes, never breaking the gaze. "I heard you playing the Harp, you're actually good at it" I said looking and pointing at the harp. He removed his hands and looked at it. "I used to play it, when there were parties" He said still looking at it. "Is it easy?" I asked.

Thorin's POV

"Is it easy" He asked. I was drawn out from the memory by his voice. "Wanna try?" I offered to him. He just nodded slightly and moved towards the chair, he sat and then leaned to the left, so he could see the strings. A small laugh escaped my mouth, making him blush a bit, he looked nervous. He stretched his arms and his fingers touched the strings, the he pulled one a bit and let go. A melodic sound was produced. He smiled and looked at me. "It sound's great" I said smiling back at him. Then he started to pull some strings and it sounded bad, they didn't even fit with each other. I moved behind him to try and help him.

Bilbo's POV

I felt his back touching my back, then his hands moved all the way from my arms to my hands. I loved his touch. His arms. All of.. "You pull the strings and then let them go" My thoughts were interrupted by his whisper on my ear. I didn't even felt when his head moved near my ear. He started to manipulate my fingers, making a song. Then suddenly he separated our touch abruptly. And I felt disappointed, I don't know why. I don't even know why I feel my stomach hardening when he comes by. "You see? You're a great player!" He said smiling. I loved that smile. I couldn't stop and yawned. "You know, we're still going to talk for some hours more.. You can go and sleep in my bed." He said "If you want, of course" He added really fast. Then he left the room before I could say anything. I went right behind him. "Hey, Thorin, where's your room?" He looked back at me. He just went and took me to his room. When we were there I said "Hey thanks Thorin, for the harp lesson and letting me sleep here" He looked at me with puppy eyes, "It's a pleasure, I mean, you've helped us in so many ways..." He stood there for some minutes and then left.
