Luthien accepted a piece of cake and seated herself on a settee.

"I think so. Wasn't Arwen marvelous? It felt so scattered when we started planning, but it all came together so nicely. What about you? Anything you would have changed?"

She popped open the nearest bottle of champagne and poured it into two slender glasses.

"You said: I know that this will hurt, but if I don't break your heart then things will just get worse..."

"Arwen was the best we could've had," she laughed at the memory.
After Gwen cheered Luthien's glass, she thought for a moment. "No, I don't think I would've changed anything. Though, I was a bit flustered before I realized I had brought my wedding dress." She laughed again. "But it was the ceremony Ellie and I never had, and therefore, it was perfect.

Have you seen FaZ today?"

"Just fleetingly, I suppose he is quite busy... And I was wondering, just how was it that you brought your wedding dress to my wedding?"

"You said: I know that this will hurt, but if I don't break your heart then things will just get worse..."

"Well," Gwen began, her eyes darting toward the bedroom, making sure Ellie was asleep. Her voice hushed to a whisper. "I actually brought it to the wedding for a distinct purpose...slightly hoping." She winked. "But of course I wasn't going to bring it up, as it isn't proper for a lady to. If you're wondering why it appears I did bring it up was because we were communicating through MSN." After she paused, she said, "Our engagement was...complicated."

"Oh, I think I see." Luthien followed Gwen's gaze and nodded conspiratorily.

Gwen laughed. "Of course you do."
She sighed and set her glass down. "So what are you and FaZ's living arrangements? I mean, what kind of house do you have?"

'Well, I haven't quite thought of that yet, what with the wedding plans and all. I would like to live in Lothlorien, but FaZ might desire a home closer to his origins."

"You said: I know that this will hurt, but if I don't break your heart then things will just get worse..."

"And what are his origins?" Gwen asked, curious. "Where is he from? I feel terrible not knowing."

"Gondor, actually, if I remember correctly," Luthien said as she relaxed back into her chair, "A remote area called 'Poland'. I have never been there but have heard many wonderful things."

Gwenneth nodded. She rose and picked up a DVD.
"Do you want to watch the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe?" A gigantic grin appeared on her face. "Don't ask me how I managed to get a copy, since it doesn't release until April 4. Just now I have people on the inside."

Luthien grinned excitedly. "How did you know I love that movie? And I find absolutely nothing suspicious about it." *wink*

"You said: I know that this will hurt, but if I don't break your heart then things will just get worse..."

"Yay!" Gwen put it in her DVD player, turned out the lights, and snuggled up on the couch with a blanket for herself, and one for Luthien. "At least now I won't feel ashamed for crying during the Stone Table scene," she added, giggling.

"You did that too?" Luthien looked appreciatively at her mum. "I cried in the theatre as quietly as possible, so no one would hear me."

"Oh yes. I was hopping nobody could see them on my cheeks since it was dark. Hehe."
The movie began and Gwen watched as scenes of the bombing of London appeared on the screen. Then she saw Edmund in the window. "Meet my favorite character in the movie," Gwen said. "Movie, of course, because Lucy is my favorite in the books."

"I always loved Lucy, but Peter was my favourite in this movie. I can't wait until the next movie comes out. They're making Prince caspian, right?"

Edit: "Oh, dear, I must go. It has been lovely, Mum, see you again soon!"

Luthien hugged Gwen and left.

FaZ was waiting in the hall, but he didn't want to be alone. He decided to go home ((EDIT> Of course Lorien, honey! )). When he saw treehouses he felt great.
- Lorien is 200x better than Gondor! - he thought and entered his house. The house was empty. there was just a shape of paper on the floor.
"I had to go, sorry Nolofinwe!
Luthien"
FaZ felt lonely but he knew, that his wife really had to go.
