what happens in the forest stays in the forest
this is one of my favorite fics ive written so far, but i needed to write something fluff and with rowaelin. i miss them so much.
WARNINGS; none, pure fluff
you were bored
bored and tired.
since you found out you were pregnant 5 months ago, rowan and aelin didn't leave your side for a second, so you couldn't go out on the street if you weren't with them and they didn't trust the guards and fenrys couldn't be near you without that rowan growled at him.
you were in your room waiting for them to finish a meeting, but you were tired of waiting so you decided to go find them.
carefully, you go down the stairs and reach the door where the meeting is taking place and gently knock on the door, you place a hand on your belly as if you wanted to protect the baby from the people inside. the door opens and rowan appears. instinctively, a smile appears on your lips and rowan hugs you carefully, leaving a soft kiss on your hair while one of his hands rests on top of yours.
"what are you doing here? you were supposed to be in the room.”
“and like you said yourself, i was,” you joke. “but i was bored and i wanted to get out of here and spend time with you.”
you hear the sound of a chair dragging on the floor and immediately aelin appears, leaving a kiss on your lips. “come sit down you-”
“you can stand for a long time” you imitate her.
aelin sits you in her chair and the people who were there stand there not knowing what to do until…
“everyone out”
“but your majesty, you cannot do this”
“i can and i want to. now everyone out."
one by one they leave the room under aelin's gaze, promising a slow death to anyone who says otherwise or looks at you wrong. once everyone has left, aelin kneels in front of you, at the height of your belly, and rowan sits next to you.
aelin's hands caress your belly and as always she speaks softly to her. "hi little girl. i hope you are not giving mom too much trouble and let her rest.”
your hand strokes her hair gently and she gets up to sit at the table.
“i thought i heard that you were bored and wanted to spend time with us”
you sigh. “i've been stuck here for too long, i've already read all the books we have, i want to get out of the castle” you look at the two of them “why don't we go for a walk in the forest?”
there is silence and you wait for them to say yes, mentally crossing your fingers. rowan breaks the silence. “okay but we have to be here before it gets dark.”
you smile widely and rowan chuckles softly as aelin helps you up.

oakwald was undoubtedly your favorite place. you love the smell of wildflowers, the shade of the trees refreshes the atmosphere and the animals run back and forth.
after much insistence and many comments about why you shouldn't go barefoot, you finally convinced them to take off your shoes (which were also destroying your feet).
barefoot and holding onto their arms, you breathe deeply, letting your senses calm down.
you reach a clearing with a small waterfall and sit down to rest with rowan and aelin on either side.
“you don't have to stay with me, you know? why don’t you go take a bath?”
“i don't think it's-”
“yes, that's a good idea, come on, i'm not going to move from here.”
at the end, you watch as they take off their clothes and aelin runs to jump into the water while laughing. with rowan close to the shore, aelin takes the opportunity to grab his arm and pull him into the water with her. you notice the joy and love coming through the bond and you couldn't be happier for them and for the life you are creating together.
you feel a presence behind you and you turn to see what or who is behind you. a white shadow passes through the bushes. you are curious and carefully get up and follow a trail of white flowers from where you were sitting to an ancient tree. and in front of it, the lord of the north in all his splendor.
your breath stops and the lord of the north approaches with slow steps until he is in front of you. being careful not to hit you with the antlers,he caress your belly with his nose. you raise your hand slowly so as not to scare him and pet his soft fur. he turns away from you and looks into your eyes, tilting his head. respect. for you and your baby. the lord of the north looks behind you and you turn to see rowan and aelin, fully clothed. a silver line decorates rowan's green eyes, while tears run down aelin's cheeks.
with a final nod to them, the lord of the north walks away into the trees. you feel arms surround your belly and aelin leaves small kisses on your neck, tickling you. rowan stands in front of you and caresses your cheeks with his hands to kiss you softly.
“don't leave again without saying anything”
you roll your eyes “it was too good to be true”
