Oh! Wait! A/N 3: This is in Legolas’ POV.

Watching

I watch his face and see the most joy and love a body could possess.

I watch his face as he gazes lovingly down at his newborn son cradled
in his arms.

I watch him as he pauses to lovingly stroke his tired wife’s cheek.

I watch him and wonder what it would be like to love someone so deeply,
that life without that person would be no real life at all, but merely
a haunted and shadowed existence.

I watch him turn his eyes back to his child and speak softly to him.

I watch him and I wonder what it would be like to have a little one of
my own to hold and love.

I watch as the King of Gondor looks down at his boy with such complete
love and tenderness, and I feel a sense of loss, sent to those who feel
they have missed out on some important part of life.

I watch, and despite that sense of loss, I also feel great joy as I
watch my gwador rock his child back and forth.

I watch him as he turns to me, smiling brightly, and I give him one in
return, forcing myself to thrust all unhappy thoughts from my mind.

I watch, and I wonder.
