*Haldir closed his eyes. His heart filled with pain every time he saw her cry. He would have done anything to spare her for this pain. He took both her hands between his, as to protect her.*
"Your Majesty... please. No tears. I... I can't bear to see you cry. If I could only take your pain on me... Don't lose hope, My Queen. We must never despair. There is always hope."

*She looked back to him sharply, a frown contorting her soft lips.*
"Hope? A hope of what? Don't you see? There is no hope left in my heart."

*Haldir looked warmly up on her, squeezing her hands gently between his strong, warm hands.*
"My beloved Queen, don't let your husband win over you. The ring on his finger makes him more mad each day. Such evil will soon lead to his downfall. You have the support of the people of Lorien, the entire Army, and... of me. Doesn't that matter anything to you?"
*He looked into her eyes again. This time he was not hiding his feelings.*

*She met his gaze, blushing at the way he looked at her. Quickly, Tearbird lowered her gaze again.*
"Yes, of course it does..."
*She turned her face shyly.*
"It's just that it seems like there's nothing that can be done to fix this."

*Haldir's heart started beating faster when he saw her blushing like that. His eyes darkened even more, and he had to look away to hide the feelings he had for her. His strong, warm hands were still holding hers. He enjoyed the touch of her soft skin against his... Quietly he kissed her hands again, letting his passion show in the kiss.*
"Your Majesty, my beloved Queen...." *he whispered.* "I wish I could do something to remove the sadness from your heart...."

*Her brow furrowed in sadness.*
"But what, my noble captain? What could you possibly do to rectify this situation?"

*Haldir looked up at her. His heart was aching for her. He wanted to take her in his strong arms and hold her tight, show her how much he loved her.... He shut his eyes in frustration.*
"I would do anything for you, my Queen."
*His voice were silent, but with all the love he felt for her.*

*Queen Tearbird shut her eyes, fighting back the tears.*
"I know you would, Haldir. I know."
*She leaned forward and kissed him softly on the forehead before she stood. She knew she couldn't, no matter how much she wanted to. She had already done too much. Her emotions warred within her.*
"I...I should go."

*Haldir closed his eyes. His body was trembling when he felt her warm lips against his forehead. He had to use all his self dicipline to remain in this position, kneeling at her feet, like a knight should in front of his Queen... Sometimes he silently cursed himself for being so well-mannered. But Queen Tearbird had enough bullies in her life already, married to King Orduag as she was. Haldir could never treat her like that... He looked up at her when she talked about leaving. The thought of being separated from her caused him pain....*
"Tearbird...."

"Yes, Haldir?"
*She slipped her soft hand under his chin, lifting his eyes up to hers, gentle in empathy.*

*Haldir's heart was beating, and he felt a little nervous but he had to tell her, he couldn't let her feel alone, unloved and unwanted.... His eyes were warm and caring when they looked deep into hers, he moved his head so his lips touched the soft hand under his chin.*
"I just.... wanted you to know.... that you are loved by your entire people. And one more than all the others."
*He looked into her eyes, hoping she would understand....*

*Tearbird's eyes filled with tenderness.*
I know. I promise...I know.
*Her lip quivered as her hand slipped up his cheek to cradle it gently.*
"You know that..."
*She swallowed, focusing on her duties.*
"That I have a responsibility to my people."
*She managed a sad smile.*
"All of them."

*Haldir looked up at her, warmly, savoring the sight of her, the feel of her touch against his cheek. He had to use all his self dicipline not to give in for the fire in his heart at that moment. His voice was quiet as he spoke.*
"Then don't give in for the threats of that idiot husband of yours! Don't let him manage to break you. I will be there for you always, my Queen. I will fight for you."
*Haldir smiled sadly.*
"I am worried about my little sister Leetah."
*he said.*
"She suddenly disappeared. Without saying a word to me. Do you know where she is?"

*She frowned, motioning him up so that they could walk together.*
"No. But I think that the king does."

*Haldir stood up and stretched his tall, muscular body. He looked surprised for a moment when he discovered he could look down at the Queen. He always used to look up to her... He tried to hide his emotions for her and listened to her talking. His eyes darkened and he clenched his fists, trying to control his anger in front of his beloved Queen.*
"Did... did he say anything?"
