Disclaimer: Not mine. Shut up. Thank you.
Rating: G now...
A/N: Parts 1 and 2 of 6 parts. :D
ETA:Also as pointed out, this is Movie!canon, as apparently Theodred is older than Eomer in the books. And he's not here. So. :D
Cousin
Eomer is ten when their fathers introduce them, and Theodred is eight. His face is still young and still almost feminine, Eomer thinks. He feels his father’s hand on his shoulder, pushing him towards the younger boy.
“Theodred is your cousin. It is our hope that you will be friends,” his father says to him, and he nods slightly. He smiles for the other boy, and Theodred smiles back, his smile that of a frightened young boy, and then fades, slightly. Eomer’s own smile widens, and Eomer knows that he will bring that smile back.
“Hello,” he says. And the smile blooms again.
“Hello.”
And that’s all there is to it.
Friend
"What happened?"
"Well, I--"
"Eomer, what happened?" Theoden looks down at Eomer who is cradling an unconscious Theodred in his arms. The younger boy's arm is swollen, and his face is smudged with dirt.
"We were climbing on the roofs, my lord," Eomer answers at last, as he shifts Theodred slightly.
Later, after Theodred's arm has been splinted and he is sleeping, Theoden comes to Eomer as he's siting next to his sleeping cousin.
"Why were you climbing on the roofs?"
It is some time before Eomer answers.
"Because it's the best view of the herds," he says softly, eyes not leaving Theodred's face.
And Theoden knows it was Eomer who told his son that. The two have been inseparable since the day they met. But he smiles all the same, and leaves the room. He's long gone when Eomer breaks the silence again.
"My fault... Never again. Never again, my fault... I swear it..."
