Chapter 14
Fili storms in his house and ignores everyone.
"What's wrong with him?" Thorin asked, even though he knew the answer.
"I'll give you two guesses and the first one doesn't count." Kili sighed.
"I see. I'll talk to him."
"I don't think that's a good idea." Kili warned.
"I got it."
Thorin knocked on Fili's door.
"Go away." Fili groaned. Thorin went in anyway.
"What's the point in knocking if you're gonna come in anyway?" Fili asked.
"I've know you miss Dalila. I understand. But it's for the best." Thorin said ignoring Fili's question.
"You keep saying you understand but you've never said how you understand. When we ask you about it you say that's a tale for another day." Fili said, deepening his voice at the end trying to mock Thorin.
"Quit acting like you're 4. I'll tell you when I'm ready. Leave it at that. You're a prince. The future king. You have to think about what's best for your kingdom."
"We don't even have a kingdom! And even if we did what's wrong with Dalila being queen?! Just because none of her ancestors were royalty doesn't mean she's not fit to be a queen!" Fili protested
"Enough! I'm tired of your whining! You might not know what's best for our kingdom but I do! And since you can't pick a decent bride I've chosen one for you!" Thorin boomed.
"W-what?" Fili asked shocked. He knew his Uncle was nuts but he didn't think he'd go to these extremes.
"You heard me. Your bride will be here tomorrow. Get over it." Thorin left the room in a hurry.
"Yeah he's got it." Kili rolled his eyes.
"Now what?" Gilund asked.
"It's obvious what we have to do, sabotage. Make this lady hate Fili. And if she's pretty we can play Dragon, Ax, Bow and see who gets her." Kili answered.
"I like the way you think. But if she's ugly we send her packing." Gilund said.
"Agreed." Kili shook Gilund's hand.
"Should you go talk to him?" Gilund asked Kili.
"No. Let him be. He just wants to be alone."
And he was alone. More alone than ever. His heart ached for his dear Dalila. He yearned for her with a passion more fierce than Smaug's passion for gold. And if you know anything about Smaug then you know Fili must've loved her. But time will tell their fate.

So Fili meets his bride tomorrow and Dalila meets a guy tomorrow😱 what's gonna happen?! And Dragon, Ax, Bow is something I randomly made up. It's like rock, paper, scissors. Bow beats dragon, dragon beats ax, and ax beats bow.
