Summary: And then comes the dreaded question…
"Will you marry me?"
Challenge: 10 out of 20
Prompts: ring, wedding
Maybe Frodo should have clued in that this was coming a little bit earlier. But he didn’t. That's his own fault. Now he has to deal with Sam, down on a knee, looking up at him with the most hopeful eyes. Frodo can't exactly focus on the words, but it's something along the lines of "Frodo Baggins, you have made me the happiest Hobbit in Middle-Earth as long as we've been together. We've been through a lot together and uh, I know our families have been pressuring us- seriously though, I thought that the time had come for this so…"
And then comes the dreaded question…
"Will you marry me?"
And Frodo really does want to say yes, because it's not the concept of marriage that's the issue. But as his eyes focus on the ring being held up, he can't find it in him to get any words out. It's golden and, honestly, beautiful, but the resemblance to the One Ring is uncanny.
He can't distract himself from it. His hands get clammy and he starts to shake, wishing he could stop it all and just manage a "yes" as Sam's face falls.
"Mr. Frodo?" Sam asks.
"I can’t."
