Author Reply: Thank you! I don't write much romance and most of the time there is far more humor in there than romance when I do! I am very glad you enjoyed it! Happy Valentine's Day!

He looked down at her as if she were a treasure unearthed and presented only to him.

*sigh* These are all lovely. What a wonderful Valentine's Day ficlet! :D

Oh........ this was WONDERFUL! I loved them all, but I especially loved the first one. You got the description perfect... how you feel when the one you love starts to notice you, *really* notice you that way, for the first time. It gave me chills and warm shivers to read it.

I also loved the "thank you for my heart" sentiment in the Pippin and Diamond one. Sam and Rosie were... well, they were delightfully lovable as only Sam and Rosie can be. I'm just confused... who was the girl with Frodo, or was that just some mystery girl that we know he must have had before the ring took all that away?

Anyway... thanks for the yummy Valentine's Day treat!

Author Reply: Wow! Thank you so much! I am very pleased that you liked them. Merry and Estella were the first that came to mind when I was writing this so I am glad to know that you could feel what I was going for there.

I figured that Sam would be the type to go slow romance-wise and since Diamond and Pippin's kiss was a wedding kiss I wanted it to be extra special.

So to the lass with Frodo, well, I decided to let her go un-named. I am certian that Frodo had quite a few lasses chasing him when he was young and so I decided that this lass would be one of many and not nearly so special to him as he was to her.

Happy Valentine's Day and thank you for the lovely review!

Ah, GW, these are beautiful! I love them all!

I especially like that you do not identify Frodo's admirer--really a good way to go about that! I had wondered how you would manage with Frodo!

Delightfully romantic, all of them!

Author Reply: So glad you enjoyed them. I was in a very good mood today. hehehe A day off work always does that to me.

I started to give the lass with Frodo a name but then I decided not to. I suspect that Frodo had his share of admirers when he was young and I thought it would be more interesting if she appeared to be far more smitten than he was and even if it was her POV, unknown to all of us.

Happy Valentine's Day!
