Y/n walks next to Bofur, the wind whipping at her hair. The Company had been traveling since dawn and it was almost midday. Y/n reaches up and her fingers graze the petals of the flower in her h/l h/c hair. Her e/c eyes drift to the one who gave her the flower.

"Well, someone likes their gift from the lad." Bofur chuckles, bringing the Hobbit's attention away from Kili.

"Shut up, Bofur." Y/n blushes, causing Bofur to laugh.

"Sorry, Y/n. But I like to tease you, lassie." Bofur comments. Y/n sticks her tongue out at Bofur, unaware of Fili sneaking up behind her. She feels the flower leave her hair and flips around to see the blonde prince examining it.

"Nice flower. Who got it for you?" Fili teases, smirking at Y/n.

"Fili Durin, give me that!" Y/n demands, but Fili moves out of reach. "Give it back!"

"Gotta catch me first!" Fili runs ahead, Y/n on his heels. She almost runs into Thorin in her attempt to catch Fili, narrowly missing the leader. She misses the look of surprise on his face, as well as her brother Bilbo's dismayed look, and barrels after Fili.

"Come on, Y/n. I didn't know Hobbits were so slow." Fili jokes. Y/n pushes herself harder, not spotting the rabbit-hole until the ground seems to swallow up her right foot. Y/n feels her ankle pop as she falls forward with a yelp.

"Y/n! Are you alright?!" Kili suddenly appears, crouching by her side.

"My ankle." She groans. Kili gently pulls her foot out of the hole. The girl grimaces at the sight of it. Her foot was pointing in an angle that was definitely not normal and was swelling as she watched. Thorin finally reaches the two and sees Y/n's ankle.

"Oin! Get over here! She's hurt!" He shouts as the rest of the Company arrive. Oin pushes his way through the Company and kneels neck to Y/n.

"It's dislocated. I need to pop it back into place." Oin states after examining her ankle. He sends Dwalin a glance, who understands and wraps his arms around the Hobbit. "This is going to sting."

"What?" The word barely leave Y/n's mouth as Oin grabs her ankle and shoves. Fresh pain erupts in her foot and she screams. Dwalin holds her so she won't lash out and hit Oin, only having to use one arm to constrain her. By the time the pain wears off, Oin has the ankle set and bandaged.

"We need to keep moving." Thorin says as Oin finishes.

"She won't be walking until her ankle heals." Oin states stubbornly.

"I'll carry her." Kili volunteers instantly.

"Are you sure?" Thorin asks. Kili nods. "Give you pack to Bofur. Fili, you will be carrying Y/n's." Fili, who had been standing off a distance, nods and takes the pack.

"Up you go." Kili says, easily lifting Y/n off the ground and onto his back. She wraps her arms around his neck as he moves her farther up.

"Thank you, Kili." Y/n says as the shock finally wears off and exhaustion sets in.

"Sleep well, Amralime. I've got you."

~~~

"How is she?" Bilbo asks, walking next to Kili.

"Still sleeping." Kili replies, glancing at his cargo. Y/n had tucked her face into his neck, the wind gently grabbing at her hair and cloak. Her arms swing limply as Kili walks. She looked so cute with her mouth slightly open as she slept. Bilbo reaches over and pulls Y/n's hood over her head to block out the sun.

"She loves you, you know that? She's loved you since you two met." Bilbo whispers. Kili nods.

"I know. And I love her too. I'd travel the world to keep her safe. She's my One."
