Title: Yuletide Cheer Author: celandineb Fandom: LotR Characters: Sam, Mistress Gamgee, Bilbo Rating: general Length: 100 words Summary: Bilbo asks the Gamgee family for Yule dinner. Note: Written for the holidays, 2009.
"We would be delighted to have your family spend Yule with us, Mistress Gamgee."
Sam held his breath, hoping.
"Well, now," said his mother slowly. "I'll ask Ham; he's helping Mister Bolger with his barns today, over in Bywater."
"Send young Sam with your answer tomorrow, then." Old Mister Bilbo's eyes crinkled as he smiled.
"Please, Mama," Sam begged once he was gone.
His mother tousled his hair. "I expect we will, Sam. Yule is a time for families, but poor Mister Bilbo and Mister Frodo are alone up at Bag End, so we should go and bring them cheer."
