Carry on with Love
by Birgitt Schuknecht


D arkness had fallen. Aragorn and Boromir left the campsite, not together, not in the same direction, not in the directions where Legolas and Gimli sat watch.

Firelight played on a Hobbit's face, his companions fast asleep. Gandalf sighed when he caught the fifth glance.

"Is there anything I can help you with, Peregrin Took?"

"Are they— Will this be all right?"

"What's this? Shire folk being afraid of true love?"

Pippin gave a near shriek. "Fear? No... yes... I do fear. For them. I shall watch their... sleep."

Fool of a Took. Gandalf smiled, watching Pippin leave without further hesitation.
