Broken steps

Bilbo stood there on trembling knees as he, looking up at Thorin, he held tears in his eyes as the Dwarf pointed the sword at the Hobbit’s throat “You betrayed me Hobbit.”  
“Th…orn please.” He cried
“NO, YOU ARE A THIEF!” He bellowed making the air around the still, the only sounds of Bilbo chocking sobs “You help reclaimed my kingdom and for that I am letting you live and if I ever see you I will throw you off this mountain.” Thorin hissed as he swiped the sword across Bilbo’s cheek, making Bilbo gasp and fall to the floor
“UNCLE!” Fili yelled as he ran to Bilbo’s side,
“Fili get away from that thing.” Kili walked passed Thorin and knelt by Bilbo and sat him up, as he started to cry
“Fili, Kili!” Thorin hissed as the two brothers’s helped the Hobbit up who was in tears.

Bilbo woke up in a cold sweat, his hand over his chest as he feels his heart raised tears are running down his, his hand resting on his bump that help his and Thorn’s child, but his little baby will never see, there was a knock at the door to his room, that made him jump. The door open and in walks Elrond with a worried look on his face “I heard you screaming?”
“I scream every night.” Bilbo said rubbing his eyes as the elf sits next to him on the bed
“Bilbo you know Thorin arrives tomorrow?”
“I am aware Elrond.” Bilbo whispers, as he rubbed his bump wincing at the memories making him touched the scar on his cheek, the one reason he couldn’t return to the shire, he once told Thorin that a cut on the face marks him as an outcast, he couldn’t return home after that “As Gandalf I have to face a demon head on if I was to sleep with peace.” He whispered
“I just don’t want to see you hurt Bilbo.”
“Thank you Elrond.”

The next day Elrond greeted Thorin, he stood there looking at king of the dwarf’s “Thorin, welcome back to Rivendel.” Thorin nodded when he see a small being run up to Elrond, he tell it was Hobbit, because the curly hair and feet but most of all he could see Bilbo’s blue eye “Frodo what are you doing should you be at your lesson?”
“It’s...It’s uncle! He’s in pain!” he cried out with tears shinning in his eyes
“Has his water’s broken?” He asked trying to calm the young thing, Frodo nodded as tears rolled his cheek
“Let’s go and find him.” He turned to Thorin “I’m sorry Thorin.” He said moving to leave.
Thorin grabbed Elrond’s arm, the elf looked around at him “Bilbo’s here?” he asked, a frown appeared on the elf’s face he pulled his arm away with force
“Of course Bilbo is here, he had nowhere else to go after to left that mark on his face a child with in!” He walked away inside to find Bilbo, leaving Thorin blinking his shock.

He sat in the garden looking out into the valley, the waterfall falling braking up the peaceful land spraying the greenery with misty water, while birds fly by, Thorin’s mind going though everything that happen everything that he had done.The guilt built over the last 8 months filled him with pain, it ate away his insides, he knew Bilbo won’t go back to the Shire with that cut on his face, the hobbit told him that in secrete to let him know how hash Hobbit’s can be, and the child that Elrond spoke of, the hobbit was pregnant with his child this whole…does that mean he was pregnant when he face the dragon? When I casted him away, he has ruin that poor small being’s life “Thorin.” Elrond spoke to him, Thorin spun around to face the dark hair elf
“How is Bilbo?” he asked
“He is well and resting, he is asking for you?” Thorin looked up and blinked
“For me?” he asked, Elrond nodded and showed him away.

He stood at the door and looked at Bilbo sat on the bed with the young boy from before and a small bundles in his arms that was coved by a blanket of white furs, Bilbo looked up to see Thorin “Come on in Thorin.” Bilbo said, walking into the room the dwarf swallows a hard lump in his throat and looked over at the three Halflings on the bed
“Bilbo.” He said
“I would like you to meet your sons, Kili and Fili.” Bilbo tells him as he looked up at the dwarf, Thorin’s eyes widen as he looked at the hobbit before him,
“I hope you do not mind I gave them your nephew’s names?” he asked
“N..No…No I don’t mind its perfect Bilbo.” Frodo watched them from the safety of his uncle’s side, unsure what to make of this dwarf.

“Bilbo, I’m so sorry about what I’ve done.” Thorin said as he looked at him, Bilbo didn’t look up from the twins in his arms “I knew the mark I left your cheek was wrong and I know there is nothing I can do to make up what happen.” He said, Bilbo moved the blanket a side a little and looked down at the baby faces that was a sleep
“I did go back to the shire hoping to tell them it was a battle scar as I had so many already, but no that didn’t stop them, what made it worst was when I started to show and the attack on poor Frodo, he got a cut on his face made by some of the other hobbit’s. I had Gandalf bring me here, where I was wanted and safe.”  He said, Thorin’s face was pale with anger
“Bilbo.”
“You want my forgiveness Thorin, the truth is I have already forgiven you, I just don’t know if I can trust you.” He tells him
“Come back to Erebor with me, let me give you the life you deserve, where you are waited on hand and food.” He said touching his cheek, Bilbo looked at him with tears in his eyes as he looked into the steel blue eyes “Come back with me Bilbo, let me show you I can again your trust again.”
“You have one more chance Thorin.” Bilbo tells him, “I don’t trust easily anymore.”
“I have all the time in the world Bilbo.”
