Chapter 17

Dasia POV


The next day after my sister asked me to stay until the end of the week I admit I was a little restless. Just looking at Luna I could tell that she and the King had something going on. That's when it hit me though, what is just like Julianna we found a way to go home or was even forced to return home? Would that be fair to anyone we would leave behind here? Would they even remember us if we left?

"Something seems to be troubling you Dasia?" I hear Legolas voice ask me out of the blue.

Turning around I see the young prince walking my way. He looked different then he did yesterday. He was now dressed in I am guessing his normal clothes since they looked like the same ones he rescued us in. I couldn't tell if he was genuinely concerned or what he was playing at but a part of me had my guard up.

"Merely thinking Prince Legolas." I reply as he finally reaches me.

"What could be bothering you? Does it have to do with your sister?" he asks me.

"Something like that, can you not tell that there is something between my sister and your father." I asked, wow I never thought I would say that in my life.

"I agree there is something between the two of them. Why does that worry you though? Do you fear that she will wish to stay here rather than return to Lorien with you?" he asks as we start to walk together.

Uh Lorien or our normal time and place. Wait what in the world am I worrying about all this for now? Why can't I just for once in my life be happy with where I am? Though a part of me tells me this is all a dream and I am going to wake up in some hospital.

"My sister can do what she wishes. After all I would not want to separate her from someone she cared for. Anyone who did that would be heartless." I say and I notice that Legolas face looks somewhat sad.

Oh no what did I do now? Could I have said something to insult him? Legolas turns around as we hear more people enter the balcony we are on. I follow him and see the red haired elf and Orophin looking our way. Though to be honest it looks like Orophin wants to punch Legolas. Knowing I should probably stop this before it gets too far I walk over to Orophin and take his hand.

"Dasia, would you come with me for a while?" Orophin asks me but does not break eye contact with Legolas.

"Why must she accompany you wherever you go? Are you not a grown ellon?" Legolas asks speaking up and about to walk forward.

"Legolas, don't speak so harshly to a guest." the red head tells him.

"Tauriel leave us, this has nothing to do with you." Legolas replies as he walks right up to us.

What in the world? All I did was be nice to the guy! Why does it look like these two want to have a war? After all I just met the Prince and I know that Orophin is the one I would always be with no matter what anyone tried to tell me. I start to push a little on Orophin to make him move away.

"Orophin, don't he's not worth it. Please take me away from here." I tell him as he looks down at me and I put my hand on his cheek and caress it. "You don't have to worry about anyone taking me from you."

"Legolas? Orophin what is going on here?" I hear the King's voice as he and Luna walk onto the balcony as well.

Great, how in the world am I going to explain this? Looking to the King I can see his somewhat shocked reaction as he sees how close I am with Orophin. Luna tries to hide back a small smile as the King then looks to Legolas.

"Shall one of you speak?" The King asks us.

"Just a misunderstanding Father, Orophin came to collect Dasia. That is all." Legolas says and I can even hear the anger in his voice.

Well aren't I good at making enemies of the royals? Luna walks over to my side as I start to feel worried. I didn't know what to think but I knew I just wanted to get out of here. Both Legolas and the King having their eyes on me made me feel incredibly uncomfortable. Orophin could apparently sense this and put his arm around my waist leading me off the balcony.

"Dasia?" Orophin asks as we continue walking. "Please speak to me."

"Do you not trust me at all?" I ask Orophin as he looks at me shocked. "I already told you that you didn't need to worry yet when you saw him simply talking to me you looked as though you wanted to kill him."

We both stop walking and just stare at one another. I wasn't sure what to feel. Anger was present but so what hurt and fear and even love. Part of me was happy he wanted to pull me away from Legolas. Still I wasn't sure why he didn't trust me.

"I never said I didn't trust you, Dasia what I feel for you I have never felt for another elleth. Sometimes my actions take place before my thinking. I do trust you but I do not trust the Prince." Orophin tells me as he walks closer to me. "Would you want me speaking to other elleths?"

Well he did have a point there. I started to remember Barbie elleth and how she made me so mad when she wanted to talk to him alone. Was I doing the same thing with him and not even realizing it? Now I felt guilty. My shoulder dropped as I went to Orophin and he wrapped his arms around me. I never knew this place could be so confusing but it was. Now I knew that I had to talk to Luna. I knew she needed time but that meant I would also have to avoid the prince. How hard could that be?
