Heart full of Love (Maedhros x Reader)
"How drunk are you?" Nelyafinwe asks as he watches you squint your eyes at a garden statue. He finds you in the gardens away from the ongoing party in the palace. Leaning awfully close to one of the statues made by Nerdanel.
"Shhh," you stumble as you turn to face him. Nelyafinwe almost reaches to untangle your feet from the train of your gown.
However, he is late as he watches you lose your balance and fall with your arms flailing wildly. Too fast even for his elven senses.
With a soft thud your face plants on his chest and he feels your warm breath even through the layers of his clothing. Even after decades of being married to you, he finds himself blushing like an immature ellon.
"Ai melda!" Your exclamation breaks his thoughts. Nelyo holds your arms as you swing back to look at him while rubbing your forehead with one hand. A droopy smile, flushed cheeks, glassy eyes, and your intricate braids messed up Illuvatar knows how...
Yet, Maitimo can't help but sigh in adoration. He finds himself ever greater infatuated with his wife, even in her inebriated state. He loves you even when his brothers tease him about his puppy love, he loves you when you wake him with morning kisses, or when his seemingly frail wife, princess carries him to give the entirety of Tirion an aneurysm.
When it comes to you even the ever-uptight politician Nelyafinwe loses all his reason, pride, and logic. He loves foolishly, unrestrained by any norm or expectation.
So, when he watches you stand on your toes as you gesture for him to bend forward, for what he wishes is a kiss, turns to be a mock whisper that is loud enough to make his ears ring. Your alcohol-ridden brain is out of any sort of volume control.
"Moryo is awfully sulky today," you pseudo whisper as you suspiciously gaze back at the statue. "He has been awfully quiet so I gave him company."
Gears click into place as Maitimo looks at the very-not-Moryo statue. Nonetheless, his heart blooms with a fondness for an elleth who cares for his family as much as he does.
"Ah I see melda, that is awfully kind of you," he says as he effortlessly lifts you in his arms and you squeal as your world tilts. Hugging yourself closer to him you rest your head on his chest as Nelyo starts making his way to your home.
A sleepy yawn escapes your mouth as wish 'Moryo' a goodnight and urge him to return home as well. Maitimo chuckles and his heart feels full.
By the time he opens your bedroom door, he can already hear your soft snores and he watches your eyes now lost in dreams.
