You woke up the morning of the Feast of starlight with a grin. You were very excited to see all the elves dancing to the soft heart and all of the merriment. As you walked down the halls deep in thought, your shoulders bumped with another as you gasped in shock from the impact.

"Oh I'm so sorry Y/N" Legolas spoke as your eyes widened

"Oh no! It's my fault I'm so sorry your highness!" You apologized profusely.

"It's quite alright. And please call me Legolas Mellon. What plans do you have today?"

"Nothing actually." You spoke with a smile. "And you?"

"I'm actually heading to the archery range if you would like to join."  He spoke holding his bow proudly.

"I'm afraid I'm no good at archery." You confessed shyly.

"Oh come on! I'll teach you!" He exclaimed excitedly. He then gave you a serious dose of puppy eyes. "Please?"

Your heart melted at his eyes and you nodded in agreement.

You arrived and he set up quite excitedly. You watched as his (fabulous) hair swished in the wind and how he pulled out an arrow with so much grace. His eyes focused on the target and his fingers released the arrows.

You didn't realize it, but you were staring and holding your breath at how wonderful Legolas was. He met your eyes causing you to quickly look away. Legolas gave you a soft smile and handed you his bow.

"I couldn't." You squeaked nervously.

"You agreed remember." Legolas spoke softly as he stood behind you. You raised the bow and arrow, poised and ready to shoot, your shoulders and arms tense.

"Relax." He whispered so close to your ear that you almost dropped the bow and arrow all together. You obeyed as he gave you sparks while fixing your arms.

"Release it." He spoke as your eyes widened at the fact that the arrow was in the center.  You both exchanged wide smiles as he continued with the lesson.

Not too far, his father watched with amusement and pride that his son had picked such a fine woman to flirt with, and how he did it so well. He could see that You were both infatuated with each other, but you were so shy. If you couldn't show signs, you would show them unknowingly, and allow Legolas to profess his love that way, allowing you to accept his love naturally. (He is very emotionally invested in this relationship btw)

He stepped out from his hiding place as he made his way forward.

"Hello Legolas, Hello Y/N. " he spoke cheerfully.

You both gave a chorus of hellos which followed a few minutes of small talk. Finally Thranduil turned to you.

"Is it true you can sing?" He asked abruptly.

"Uh well-" you began as Legolas nudged you with a smirk. "Yes?"

Thranduil grinned "great! Our singer got sick tonight and you will replace her. Questions? Comments? Concerns? No? Great. See you tonight!"

"But my Lord I have nothing to prepare me for-" you squeaked

"You will do great!" Thranduil pranced away as you stood speechless, whether it was from the sudden assignment or that the King of Mirkwood actually pranced away.

"I have to go get ready for tonight, I look forward to your performance." Legolas spoke as he gave you a kind smile.

"Thanks." You spoke shyly and giving a small smile.

Quickly you rushed to your room and pulled out your harp and began to look for the perfect song.

Several hours later.

The Feast had begun, and you sang and watched merrily as the elves danced with the maidens. Legolas however, was standing to the side in deep thought. Finally the musicians stopped to get a break as you sat down at the piano. (Pretend they have one). Everyone awaited your song as you took a shaky breath and played with ease.

Wise men say
Only fools rush in.
But I can't help, falling in love with you.
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you.
Like a river flows,
Surely to the sea.
Darling so it goes,
Some things are meant to be.
Take my hand, take my whole life too.
But I can't help falling in love with you.
Like a river flows,
Surely to the sea.
Darling so it goes,
Some things are meant to be.
Take my hand, take my whole life too.
But I can't help falling in love with you.
And I can't help but falling in love with you.

Yours and Legolas's eyes met as the whole crowd stood in complete silence. Not because it was terrible, because they were filled with so much awe and respect for you and your voice.

Thranduil stood as he wiped a tear from his eyes and began to clap madly. Legolas and the whole ballroom followed suit.

You grinned from ear to ear with your handiwork and took a low curtsy.  After many congratulations, you were finally able to see Legolas.

"You were amazing." He spoke breathlessly.

"Thank you Legolas." You smiled warmly.

"Will you walk with me?" He asked quietly causing you to eagerly grab his arm and guide him out to the gardens. 

When you had gone a good distance away from the party, Legolas stopped.

"What's wrong Legolas?" You asked worriedly. You had never seen such anxiety in him.

"I have to confess something. I am undoubtedly and madly in love with you." He said it quickly as your eyes widened in shock.

"R-really?" You asked. "I didn't think you feel the same way."

"I have for awhile, and I was afraid...."

You cut him off short by placing your soft lips on his causing him to grin happily.

You broke up apart, forehead to forehead grinning with so much love and happiness.

"So what do we do about Thranduil?" You asked quietly.

"I'm pretty sure he approves. " Legolas grinned.

"I most certainly do!" Thranduil popped from the bushes with a bottle of wine. "Remember son make sure you carry protect-"

"ADA!" Legolas screeched as he shooed his father away.  Causing you to laugh hysterically.

9 months later.

Wedding bells chimed as you exited the church/palace. You and your new husband made your way to the reception, where there was much merriment and joy. Finally, Legolas quietly led you to the garden where it all began.

"I don't even know where to start or what to say other than thank you for this wonderful journey-" he rambled as you suddenly placed a finger on his lips.

Take my hand, Take my whole life too.
But I can't help but falling in love with you.

Bc I'm feeling very generous today. 😂😂❤️👌🏾👌🏾

18 months later

Soft baby cries woke you and your husband up. It had been a few days after the delivery of your healthy baby daughter, Eva and you were still exhausted.

"Lay down, I will get her." Legolas murmured as you nodded.

After a few moments, your daughter stopped crying, you being curious you went to your daughters room to see your husband standing and rocking your daughter

Take my hand, Take my whole life too. He sang quietly as her big blue eyes watched in wonder.

But I can't help but falling in love with you.
And I can't help but falling in love with you.
