*As they began walking through the fragrant expanse of flowers and other assortment flora, Katya fell silent, marvelling at the beauty and the wonder of the place. She'd seen flowers before, and in fact had been to the garden in Paris, but it was nothing like this.
Truly amazing*

*Haldir walked around in the Rose Garden, still with his arm around Katya's waist. He showed her the way to the most beautiful rosebushes. The roses had the same color as the blushing in her lovely face when he had kissed her. Haldir smiled and picked the most beautiful rose from the bush. He gave the rose to Katya.*
"As a token of my love...."

*She held the rose in her hands very carefully, as though it might shatter*
"Thank you." She said softly. "I...I don't think someone gave me flowers before."

*He arched his eyebrows in surprise.*
"A beautiful girl like you? Well, that was about time then!"
*He smiled warmly and caressed her gently, as he looked deeply into her eyes.*
"You will have to get used to it, because I intend to bring you a lot of flowers from now on."

*She giggled at that*
"Don't go emptying out the garden because me, now."

*Haldir laughed and gave her another kiss. He looked her warmly in the eyes.*
"Here in Lorien the blossoms grow up again immediately. So you don't need to worry. There will always be enough flowers to fill up your room."

*She glanced about at all the flowers, before looking back at Haldir*
"That sounds fantastic. I wouldn't mind flowers filling the room."
*She vaguely recalled seeing that before, though it was a distant memory.*

*Haldir smiled and looked into her eyes.*
"When you return to your room this evening, there will be a surprise for you."
*He put his arm around her shoulders.*
"But I don't want you to leave just yet. I want to show you the other gardens we have here as well."
*He motioned her to walk with him further into the gardens.*

*her eyes twinkled merrily*
"I love nice surprises!"
*The other gardens, with their wide variety of flowers, were just as fantastic as the roses. Katya especially loved the very fragrant blossoms of the Gardenia, the lilacs, and even the flowering orange trees*

((Niiiice I don't know anything about flowers, so continue with this. )) *Haldir looked at her and smiled. He was happy every time he could bring a smile to her beautiful face.* "I promise you will receive flowers like these in your room every day. Oh, I almost forgot. I haven't showed you the pond yet. The ducks there have just had ducklings. You should see them when they are floating about on the water."

"That would be nice!"
*Oh, boy, she was starting to sound like a broken record*
Say something else, Katya!
"Um, do you have other kinds of animals that are maybe different than the outside? Like a unicorn or things like that?"

*Haldir laughed.*
"Well, we have a lot of animals here. And some of them are different than those of the human world. But, to see that, I would have to bring you into the woods. Would you be afraid to go there with me?"

"Oh, I love the woods, I wouldn't be afraid. I used to sleep outside when I was fleeing Russia."

*Haldir smiled warmly.*
"Then I will take you to the woods when you are ready for it. But now I think it is time for dinner. Are you hungry, my dear?"

*Katya opened her mouth to say that she was fine, when her stomach grumbled. Giving Haldir a sheepish grin, she said,
"I guess I could use some dinner."
