Apylia's eyes watered, it was Legolas. He looked at her again. His mouth was hanging open, he looked dazed. Aphylia walked slowly towards him. He backed away. Shaking his head, he mouthed no over an over again.
Before she reached him he opened the doors to the stairs and ran down them. Aphylia kneeled to the floor and started crying. She was confused. Why hadn't he talked to her? Why did he run away?
Another door opened, Molly's voice reached Aphylia's ears.
"Lia? Is that you? What happened?"
"Nothing, just an old friend. Thats all."
"Who was it? Did they hurt you?"
"No." and yes, thought Aphylia. Her shoulders shook with all of her emotion.
Molly sat on the floor next to her and patted her back, "its okay, why don't you tell me everything. It'll make you feel better," she crooned.
"No. Nothing will. I need to see him again. *sob*"
Molly looked scared. "Lia do you want to get something to refresh yourself with? Or something?"
"Okay."
Molly helped her up and led her to her own room. No one was inside. Aphylia sighed with relief when she sat on a chair.
"I hope I didn't freak you out Molly. Sorry. It's just.." Lia stopped. How could she tell Molly everything?
"Nothing. Thanks so much for helping me. I'll just go down to the dining room."
"Okay, hope you feel better." Molly looked doubtful.
Aphylia got up and left the room. She walked to the elevator and pressed down. Stepping inside she realized someone else was in it. Haden Christianson!!!! Woah! Wouldn't Laura be having a cow just about now?
She pulled a piece of paper out and a pen.
"Um Haden. Could you sign this for me?"
"Sure." He smiled then signed it.
*DING* they had reached the main floor. Haden left.
"Thank you," Aphylia called after him.
"No problem," he replied over his shoulder.
Aphylia entered the Lobby then made her way to the dining room. Laura waved her over to the table she was sitting at.
"Where is your boyfriend and Sandra?"
"Oh they're still in their rooms. I thought no one would be coming down. I'm glad you did."
Aphylia looked around the room hoping to spot Legolas. Where was he?

Aphylia slumped in her chair.
"You okay?" asked Laura looking a bit skeptical.
"Yeah. I'm fine" She felt drained out.
"Hey do ya want something to drink? A coke or something?" Laura asked cheerfully.
"Um sure. A coke sounds fine. Thanks"
Laura walked to the drinks counter. Aphylia sighed.
Meanwhile, Orlando Bloom (ahem legolas ahem) stood panting at the bottom of the stairs. He grasped the rail for support. No way that could of been Aphylia. This just didn't happen.
He paused and looked up. Good, she didn't follow. Sitting on the steps he touched his forehead, then his ears. He could feel the points. She had had pointy ears. Shaking his head he tried to pull himself together. Aphylia.
Just thinking of her he felt his heart race. Oh Aphylia, I miss you beyond words, he thought.
Why had he run away? He pinched himself.
"OUCH!!!"
It had happened. Orlando looked back up again. Maybe she was still there? He shot up the stairs. When he reached for the door he stopped. The sound of sobs and voices came under the door. Orlando backed away. Too late.
He bit his lip. Idiot, he yelled in his mind.
Orlando wandered slowly down the steps again. At the bottom he looked up to see Elijah standing there.
"Hey you okay?"
"Yeah. I guess."
Elijah looked confused, "Okay, whatever. Why don't we get a soda?"
"That sounds good."
The two walked outside into the lobby and went to the drinks counter. Orlando looked frantically around for Aphylia. She wasn't anywhere in sight. Sighing he followed Elijah.
Back at Aphylia's table Molly and Sandra came to sit next to her. They mumbled something about their boyfriends going out for a scenic drive.
"Hey you okay Lia? Molly told me about what happened," asked Sandra with a worried look on her face.
"Yeah I'm fine. I just sorta saw someone I used to know. You wouldn't understand. Thanks for asking though."
Sandra nodded her head. Molly looked over her shoulder, "Hey do ya know where Laura is? I haven't seen her since we checked in."
"Oh she's at the drinks counter gettin me a coke."
"Okay I think I'll go get a coke myself." Molly got up and left in the direction of the bar.
All of a sudden Laura rushed towards them. She was glowing with excitement.
"Oh my gosh! I can't believe it!"
"What? What?" asked Sandra.
"I *gasp* saw Elijah Wood and Orlando Bloom at the drinks counter!!!! *squeal* I got their autographs!!!!!!!!"
"Lucky," grumbled Sandra.
Orlando Bloom? Aphylia perked up.
