It was beneath a tree where you found him. He would go there often after a long day of walking. This quest was taking a toll on all of the company. You imagined that it impacted Thorin immensely. You watched under the moonlight as Thorin brought the pipe to his lips, sucked in, and blew out with ease. The whole action was erotic to you, you found. If wouldn't hurt to go say hello to him m, would it? You supposed not.

"Good evening Thorin," you said happily as you walked up and stood before him.

He looked up at you happily," good evening y/n. Why aren't you asleep like the others? It's late," Thorin observed looking over the sleeping company.

"I know....its just that j couldn't sleep and you're the only one awake right now. I thought....I don't know.... We could talk? You can send me away when ever you wish," you added quickly.

Thorin smirked,"I wouldn't send you away even if my life depended on it! Come, have a seat y/n," he scooted over to make room for you. You sat next to him without a fuss. You tapped your fingers on your knee to think of something to talk about.

"They say fall will be upon us soon. I for one can't wait. It'll be time for hallows eve and pumpkin carving. It's my favorite holiday," you smiled at the thought of leaves changing colors, a chill on that familiar breeze in the fall that signaled that winter was just around the corner.

"So it would seem. We will have reached the mountain by then....hopefully," Thorin added skeptically.

"We will Thorin," you have him a hopeful smile and returned it. "Although..."

"Yes?"

"I don't think the key hole will be shown right away. I have a bit of a theory...," you raised an eye brow to Thorin.

"And what would that be y/n?" He asked interestedly.

"Well, the map that has the moon runes is a riddle. 'The setting sun, with the last light of Durin's Day shall shine upon the key hole. It's obvious isn't it? It's not the light of the sun Thorin, what other light is there than the sun?" You asked him.

You saw his eyes widened with surprise," the moon," he whispered and you nodded.

"I stayed up half the night when it came to me. I was tired of writing down possible theories when I looked up into the night sky, and it was like there was nothing in the sky, but the moon. That's when I realized," you looked over at Thorin who was giving you and adoring smile. You blushed and looked away at that.

"You are full of surprises y/n," he complimented.

"Thank you," you looked back at him.

"Here, try this," he handed you his pipe. You took it cautiously.

"I've never smoked a pipe before," you looked at the pipe itself. "This is beautiful Thorin! These engraving are stunning," you ran a delicate finger over a carved wolf.

"It's quite easy and thank you I carved it myself," he smiled. "All you have to do is suck in with your cheeks and let it fill your lungs and then exhale," Thorin instructed. You gave a curt nod and brought the pipe to your lips. You sucked in and the smoke entered your mouth and circulated through your lungs a bit. You hummed as you exhaled the brilliant smoke. You handed the pipe back to Thorin.

"Thank you, that felt nice," you gave a bashful smile. Thorin found it absolutely adorable.

"I can make you your own pipe–if you like," he said and brought the pipe to his lips once more.

"I would be honored Thorin, but you don't have to do that for me," you smiled. You didn't need a pipe.

"We will see," Thorin said while he blew out his smoke.

A couple months later you woke up and found a medium sized pumpkin beside your bed roll. You saw that the top had been cut into and you pulled the lid of the punk in off. The inside of the orange plant was hollow, but inside sat a single and beautiful carved pipe. Thorin had made it just in time for your birthday.
