Hello guys! First I'm so so so so sorry! I can post only one this week! I have been really tired and i have no ideas for fics. So yeah, but hopefully i at least three done next week. But more about it in the end. So i wanted to write about Gloin because he is character who doesn't get writen about. So i thought i could give it a try. I hope you like it. (Oh and i know that Gimli isn't as young as i have made him in this fic but just go with it!)

Third Person P.O.V.

You woke up in your and your husbands warm bed, with his arms around you. You smiled and started to turn around so that you could see his sleepy face. He had so calm expression when he slept and you loved to see it. Of course you did see it when he was awake too, but only if you two were alone. Well there was another person in his life whom he could show his soft side. 

It was your 5 years old son, Gimli. Little redhead like his father and you had to admit his temper was the same as well. But they were both like an angles to you, and you can't say that you weren't determined too. If you ask it from Gloin he would say that, that was the first thing he fell in love with you.

You felt how the bed shifted little next to you and your thoughts were interrupted. Then you noticed that you had closed your eyes while thinking. You opened them and saw that Gloin was leaning to his arm while looking at you. "Morning love." He smiled and gave you a light kiss on your lips. "Morning handsome." You smiled back to him and kissed the tip of his nose. 

You smiled and looked at each other for little while. Then his expression got little sad. "Love you know what day today is don't you?" Smile left your lips too when you remembered what was going to happen today. "Yeah... but do you really have to go?" He looked at you with sad smile. "Yes love, i need to go. It is our home too." You sighed and kissed him deeply. When you leaned away you turned to look at the ceiling. You two had been through the same conversation when he first told you he was going to reclaim Erebor. 

~~~~FLASHBACK Week earlier~~~~

You were outside with Gimli, watching as he practiced fighting with axe, his father had made for him. As you stood there watching your son, an arms found their way to your waist and you got kissed on your cheek. "Hello love. How was your day?" You turned to look at Gloin with smile on your face. He looked into your eyes and smiled. "Hello beautiful, my day was same as always, but it got better right away when i saw you and the little lad outside the house." 

He kissed you one more time and then he walked to Gimli. As always he was happy to see his father after a long day. You three had a normal evening. You ate and talked with each other about what you've been doing and then it was time for Gimli to go to sleep. You and Gloin wished Gimli good night and closed his door. Then it started.

"(Y/n), Love... we need to talk... i mean i have something to tell you." You were surprised of the way he acted and it kind of scared you. He was always so straight with his words, and now it felt like he was thinking every word he said. "Is everything alright?" You looked at him worried. "Yes, yes everything is fine but i think it's better if we sit down." 

You two walked to living room and sat on the couch. Gloin took deep breath and looked into your eyes. "(Y/n)... I got message from Thorin. It said that he personally asked me and my brother, Oin, to join him on his quest." You listened carefully every word. "The quest was about reclaiming Erebor." You stared at him in silence for little while, trying to realize what he just told to you. Then your expression got dark and your eyes showed fear and sadness. "YOU. Are. NOT. Going! I don't want to get letter, from some king wanna be, about that my husband and my sons father has died! And doing what? Going on a suicide quest!" There were now tears streaming down your cheeks. "(Y/N)! Do not talk about our king like that!... Love please understand... i want to give good home to you and Gimli." 

You looked at him with teary eyes. Then you realized. "You have already informed that you will go, haven't you?" Gloin turned his eyes away from you and more tears started to rush from your eyes. "How could you... How can you leave me and Gimli like this... why would you abandon us..." His head snapped up and he looked into your eyes once more. Suddenly he pressed his lips on yours. He kissed you deeper than in a long time. "Don't you ever say that i'm abandoning you and him! Because i am not! I do this because i want him to grow as a strong dwarf. And because i want you to live in safety." He hugged you and you two just sat there for a while. When you calmed down little you asked. "When are you leaving?" There was little silence. "In a week." You kissed him one more time before hugging him tight.

~~~~FLASHBACK ENDS~~~~

Gloin kissed your forehead and got up from the bed. "When are you leaving?" He turned to look at you. "In couple hours." You sighed. "Before you go, you have to go wake Gimli and tell him." He nodded and started to put his clothes on. "I promise to do that." You got up from the bed and started to walk towards the kitchen. Before you could leave the bedroom, two strong arms warped themselves around your waist. "You know i love you right." You sighed and kissed his cheek. "I know love, i know."

He let go of you and you continued walking. When you reached the kitchen you started to prepare some lunch for Gloin. You couldn't cry now so you did something to get your mind off things. When you were done you noticed that Gloin had everything done and he was ready to leave. You went and put his lunch to his bag. When you opened it you saw the pictures of you and Gimli i his locket. Little smile appeared on your face. You closed the bag and went to look for your husband.

You found him kneeling in front of your son and talking to him. "... And promise me you look after your mother and protect her while i'm gone." Gimli nodded to his father and turned to look at you. He got up and ran to you. "I will protect mommy!" You laughed little and hugged him "Thank you, my brave soldier." Then you got up and looked at Gloin for little while. 

He walked to you and kissed you. "I'm going  to miss you so much.." "And we're going to miss you." You took Gimli to your hands and scooped him up. Then you three started to walk towards the front door. You hugged and kissed him once more before he left. "Just promise me one thing, please return." He caressed your cheek. "I will return. How could i ever leave you two." You kissed him quickly and then he turned and stared to walk. You and Gimli stood at the doorway, waving to Gloin as he walked away. When you couldn't see him anymore you turned to Gimli. "You must be hungry, let's go make you something to eat." And so you went inside the house.
