Elrond sat upon his bed, writing in a journal, much as he had ever since
his beloved wife had returned. He kept track of every minor incident, a
slight fever, and odd mark. He also kept track of everything he had done to
heal all those minor incidents, incase anything similar should happen, he
would know what to do. The truth was, Elrond was still afraid something
would happen to take her from him.
He was dressed in silken, burgundy bed clothes that clung lightly to his form as he wrote. His hair fell across his back like a rippling black stream, smooth from a fresh brushing. The position in which he sat made him seem younger somehow, though his facial expression dismissed any thought of a young elf. If nothing else, her husband was interesting to watch, Celebrian mused as she watched him from the mirror where she was brushing out her own silver hair.
As she made her way to their bed, she knew he watched her even though he never moved his head. Just as Celebrian was about to lay herself down to sleep, Elrond timidly reached out his hand to her, much as he had done every night since she had awoken two months ago. But every night she had retracted her hand ere he could hold it and bring her closer to him for the cruel wounds inflicted by the orcs stung her deeply and their invading touch had taken from her any desire to be touched by hands again, even those of the husband she knew loved her.
But as she looked upon him, his head downcast to avoid any look of rejection from her, hand reaching desperately for the one thing that gave him courage, unconditional love and a sense of companionship so true that none could deny it, Celebrian felt something. Something apart from the love and trust she always felt when with him, more like the attachment she felt for him when she slept next to him, her head upon his chest the first night they were wed. The need to be as one with him again, something her torture and defilement had stolen from her, from them.
With a slight hesitation, she lifted her hand to his and grasped it. Elrond looked up and this time the look on his face was that of Elrohir when he feared reprimand for a wrong doing when he was a child. Celebrian slid slowly onto their bed and next to her husband, her white bed gown barely rustling their blankets. Still holding his hand, she stroked his face with her other making Elrond close his eyes and lean into the touch. Opening his eyes, Elrond lifted his hand to her face and leaned slowly in towards her, placing his lips upon hers and gently kissing her.
Celebrians pulse raced as her husband tenderly explored her mouth as he often did, nothing like the bruising of her face that was forced upon her by her captors as they wordlessly implied the torture of mind and body ahead for her.
When they broke their kiss, slightly short of breath, Elronds eyes searched Celebrians for the answers to the questions that were in his
Ya like? Constructive criticism is always appreciated:) but be gentle, I'm a first time fic writer.
I just wanted to put some more Elrond/Celebrian fics out there. Big thanks to all those who have pioneered the way before me especially Nemis, you inspired me to say the least.
All you Elrond nuts out there should check out one of the best sites devoted to him out there, http://www.elveanna.net/index.htm
Hopefully more to come.
