BEATIFUL, JUST BEAUTIFUL!!! Such a wonderful story. You really conveyed Arwen's love for Aragorn. This story just took my breath away. Just to know that she watches him in his sleep (as I do my husband), worries about him when he is sick, care for him like he is a child (aren't they all when they're sick!), her torment of what will be in the future ("would you be like this when it was his time?"---made my cry!!)..things that one does when they are truly in love. Her feelings towards him were felt by me. Please write more stories like this..preferably with Arwen and Aragorn.. I am thrilled that I found this story.. It just moved me. Now I am going to hug my hubby!!!

How fascinating this was to see mortality from an immortal's viewpoint. I loved Arwen's descriptions of Aragorn, while he was sleeping, awake, ill and well. All the little moments in time that make up a life, and the all-too strong awareness of its passing. This was beautifully written, both in 'voice' and in expression of an idea. This is excellent work and you should be proud of it.

hi

I really enjoyed your story.

I think that the emotion between Arwen and Aragorn is often diluted in some fanfix but not in your world!

I especially liked how you described Arwen's feelings about being with her husband, the little things, the pleasure of being by his side, of listening to his breathing and merely being in his company ...

Thank you for this vignette.

[...]He reminded me of a wounded elfling, so helpless[...] there is a weird image (Aragorn helpless!) but sweet anyway. This is a very good story, i like it a lot, you got Arwen poin-of-view pretty well. I see this is your only story, please, keep writing!!! you do it very good.

"as frightening as mortal life may be, it is captivating. It makes me realize, perhaps, just how precious he is…laying there, in my arms, his heart beating against mine. Time stops just for a second and our love remains immortal."

Amazing story. Thank you for sharing it with us.
