Unqualified

It’s been nearly a month since the battle for the Mountain and two weeks since the destruction of the Ring. You were still completely battered and bruised, limping slightly at the mostly healed cuts along your legs with several broken ribs with cuts along the left side of your face down your neck and left arm with several more along your back. For a week you stayed in your bed in the healing wing, the last two days Bilbo had to physically restrain you a few times, remaining still while injured has never been good for you, in body, spirit or mind.

You had lined up an interview, for what reason you didn't know, but even as a dishwasher you had to interview. You made it through alright until you got to the part about references, apparently the King himself was not allowed on the list, or the Royal family, any of the Company, the new Lord of Dale, or even a Wizard. Somehow leaving you completely omitted from any job in Erebor, seeing as unless you were Royalty their reference could not be used. You were not a Dwarf so there were no free chances for you.

Blinding Rage was nowhere near what you were feeling. You had everything you owned in your enchanted bag, and even though you were gifted a free room from the new King you refused to accept it unless you had a job to pay for it. Refusing to “just live off of your earnings” as Thorin had put it. You left your balance of your payment in the vast treasury but having Balin take note of your credit and Thorin wrote a certified credit balance for you, to collect any amount at any time.

You walked out of the vast Mountain, receiving several gazes as you left, heading for the forest nearby. It was nearly sunset as you walked through the trees, limping as you walked along the broken stone pathway. Walking for a short while, until you found the right tree, with tall roots sticking up and a spot in the center for you to curl up in. You let out a small grunt as you forced your shaking legs to climb onto the roots then up onto a low branch then into the center spot. Dropping heavily into the spot, stretching out your legs as you propped your bag up behind you and relaxed into your spot.

You sat quietly through the night, looking up at the two stars you could see through the leaves and branches above you. A few times pulling out your bag to eat, sometime through the night spotting a Great White stag roaming through the forest near you. You sat forward, getting a better view as it sniffed the air before flicking it’s ear and glancing over at you, flinching slightly as if worried if it should run. You bowed your head slightly and it blinked at you in return before slowly walking away from you after giving you a quick nod. A smile spread across your face as you closed your eyes, remembering giant green fields surrounding Rohan and all of the horses roaming free through their lands, quietly humming an old tune from your days there centuries ago.

As the sun rose you spotted a small green leaf on the branch near you, raising your eyebrow at it as you climbed out of the tree. You headed out a good distance from your tree, stopping as you spotted a small herd of deer, quietly resting against the tree behind you. As you watched them you heard an arrow get drawn from its quiver, your eyes darting over to the Elf Guard who quickly dropped it once they spotted your purple eyes, bowing its head in apology as you turned to watch the deer again who watched the Elf return to its patrol path.

You spent the day inspecting the various animals that still chose to remain there, all of them more cautious of you than the last. Snacking from your bag as you travelled through the day before returning to your tree as the sun set again. Following the same pattern for nearly a week, finding an un-enchanted stream to bathe and clean your wound with. The last day one of the deer stepping closer to accept a nibble off of an apple you sliced for it, slowly the rest accepting a nibble as well. All mentally reaching out to you asking, “Friend?” you smiled and responded, “Friend.” making them walk a little closer to sniff you to remember your scent, before passing on again for their night spot. 

You found your way to the stream again, silently washing your hair. As you pulled your hair out of the stream you spotted a pair of boots behind you, wringing out your hair and sitting down on the rock behind you as a velvety voice sounded out behind you, “There are several hundred baths in my Kingdom you could be using.” Silently eyeing the newly green area around him, sure that a week ago was still pitch black with sickly brown moss.

You chuckled as you worked your comb through your hair, “I am aware.”

He shot you a small smirk as he sat down on a rock beside yours, eyeing your wounds and your blood stained clothes, his face going stern, “You’re bleeding.”

You shook your head, “Old stains, wouldn't come out.”

He tilted his head to the side as he reached out his hand, gently turning your head so he could see your cuts down your left side, remembering you shielding him from a troll feeling the same stabbing pain in his chest from that moment as he watched you take the blow, sliding his finger along one of the red scabs across your bruised face before looking back in your eyes, “Why are you out here alone?” as he dropped his hand back into his lap.

“I tried to get a job in Erebor. Apparently I’m unqualified.”

His face going stern again, “What job?”

You chuckled as you said, “Dishwashing.”

His face going blank as the shock ran through him that you would choose something so low, “How exactly are you unqualified for that, and why would you need an interview for that job at all, or any job for that matter?”

You smiled again, “Using Royalty or Wizards or any of the Members of the Company are allowed to be used as references for a job and each job in Erebor requires them.”

He shook his head slightly before looking back into your eyes, “There is an open job you can start in the morning, if you wish to stay in My Kingdom, one condition though.”

“And what would that be?”

“You will live Inside my Kingdom, not just outside of it.” As he stood offering you his hand.

Making you chuckle and accept it, standing up then you dropped his hand, “Fine, What is the job?”

He turned and started to head to the gate, leading the way for you as he replied in the same gentle voice he used around you since your battles together recently, “In my Library, keeping the books in the proper place. You will be paid well for it.”

You chuckled, “As long as I earn it, the amount is not important as long as I can afford rent.”

He glanced down at you saying, “I am not going to charge you rent.”

“Why?”

Switching his voice to his authoritative one, “Because, I refuse to.” making you chuckle again as you reached the gate, the King holding you steady as you climbed the few stairs, leading you at a slow pace to your new room ordering healing herbs along the way. Each Elf glancing at you, recognizing you from the battles and the escape before, eyeing your obvious wounds, all knowing how you had received them and why the King was being so attentive to your movements.

He quickly drew you a bath with healing herbs to soak in and helped you pull out of your boots as Tauriel entered to help you undress and climb in, barely able to keep her gasp to herself when she saw the full extent of your wounds, but her reflection was clearly spotted in the mirror near you, letting you know how badly you looked. You settled into the bath and sank below the water for a few minutes before coming up for air, rubbing your cheek and feeling the cuts healed. Soaking for nearly an hour before climbing out, accepting the towel from Tauriel and allowing her to help you get redressed. 

The King offering you dinner as you dried your hair, joining him and his Son for the meal before heading off to bed, letting you know that he would show you the way in the morning before excusing himself, smiling slightly at the disappearance of your cuts and the slight lightening of your bruises.

The library was in disarray, books and notes everywhere, mostly silent and empty but by the end of the day as the King came to invite you to dinner, joining  him before heading for bed again. The King soon adding a lunch to your schedules, through the next few weeks you were shocked as you never saw anyone but you and the King, occasionally the Prince, somehow the books were still in such terrible order as you headed back to work again.

That night, as you couldn't sleep you decided to head to work early, stopping as you spotted the King darting between the aisles humming while grabbing random books and hiding them in random spots, pulling a few more and stretching them out on a few tables, as he went to grab another armful of books you slipped back out with a smile on your face as you went back to your room.
