Rosie was standing outside the house in the coolness of the night air. It had been a week since Sam had gone and Rosie was already missing him terribly. She was starting to wish that she hadn't said he could go, but that was being selfish. He did miss his friends. Rosie remembered the first time they met. It was at a hobbits party, she couldn't remember exactly which one, and Sam had been a bit down...
Rosie had drank too much and being the good girl that she was at that time, she knew that it was time to start stumbling home. Slowly walking in diagonals she stumbled along the track home.
"Excuse me miss." A voice came out of the darkness.
Rosie yelped and whirled around to meet the man that had just spoken. But this was not such a good idea as she was still light headed from the drink. So, she lost her balance and fell over at the man's feet.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, that was silly of me. I shouldn't have startled you. O dear. Let me help you up."
Rosie was pulled up easily and placed on her feet. Red with shame Rosie pulled her eyes upwards, to find the kindest eyes she had ever seen.
"Oh, that's ok," Rosie gave him the biggest smile she could muster and batted her eyelashes at him "I think I have drunk too much anyway." Rosie chuckled and for all her efforts the nice man smiled and chuckled back. The nicest smile, so warm.
Then she realised. This was Sam, the very guy that she had once followed around for years but to no avail. He never even noticed her and then of course he had left. For such a long time. A year. She had forgotten all about him, how on earth could she have done that? He was still as nice as ever.
"I'm so sorry, look, let me walk you home, it's the least I can do."
"Well okay, its just up the hill" and beaming at him they walked on.
...and that was their first meeting. Rosie treasured that meeting, so much. They were never seen apart after that.
"Be quick Sam, I can't live that long without you." And with that Rosie turned and walked back into the house.
