Description
“Thorin, the poor girl is starving.” Bilbo’s voice cut between the whispers the three dwarves were sharing.

“That she is master Bugler.” Thorin glanced at you, his eyes so full of power and determination made you blush and look even more intently at the ground. “We’ll take her with us. At the first village we come to, we will leave her. Now back to sleep all of us. This little interruption will not be a deterrent to us leaving at dawn’s light.” As the men shuffled passed you they gave introductions, unfortunately you only managed to catch a few names. Finally with the company all laying down and beginning to snore again Thorin sat down beside you and offered you some more food.

“Thank you.” You took the food and began to eat, this time slower as you doubted he would take away what he just gave you. “I’m really sorry though. It’s just… I haven’t eaten and you have food… I couldn’t go any longer.” You finished your small meal and sighed, content for once to have a safe place to rest and food in your belly.

“It will be a long time till we reach a village.” Thorin huffed, and glanced down at you. Something about your small frame and large eyes made him want to protect you, want to hold you, and keep you safely beside him; but he pushed those feelings down, there was no place for such things on this quest. “Get some rest. It will be an early start tomorrow.” He stood and walked away, you watched him before laying on the cold hard ground beside the fire and letting it keep you warm through the night.
