9 in the morning, you snuck out of your bedroom, like every day. Past the guards that stand in the queens wing, your soon to be wing.

Your steps quiet, trying to make as less noise as possible.

Thranduil took care of you for many many years after you dad basically sold you to him as a sign of peace. And now that you got elder, more mature. He wants to marry you, even if your age gap is huge.

You didn’t want that, no, you didn’t ask for that.. you love Legolas truly truly. With your whole heart, but you couldn’t betray your king now can you?

You and Legolas always snuck out together, either in your room, silently cuddling at night. At the training grounds, he always helped you train your bow skills better. Or in the woods, where you both mostly had a picnic, Talked, kissed, cuddled, and and and.

Today was no else, you and Legolas went to the woods, laughed snd made each others hair as you layed in the grass, kissed each others whole face.

Oh, and Thranduil? Yeah you basically told him you both would go giant spider hunting.

Before coming home, you both ran a few miles, made yourself dirty so it looked like you guys really fought and sweated.

As soon as you enter , you can feel his piercing gaze on you.

He's sitting by the fireplace, clearly waiting for you; who's back from killing giant spiders with Legolas by your side.

"I thought I told you not to go to the forest to hunt spiders." He sighs, slightly frustated by your reckleness.

"You could have gotten yourself killed, Cassandra."

He lost his first wife, he can't lose you too.
