    Summary

    'Alone this Yuletide? Irritated with prying and nosey family members?

    I am an out of work blacksmith currently trying to make my way by any means necessary that does not involve my resorting to thievery (prisons are most uncomfortable, I've unfortunate first hand experience). However, if you would like me to be your strictly platonic companion for any social function, but have me pretend that we are in a serious courtship, so as to torment your family and ward off unwanted suitors then I am more than obliging...'

    After becoming increasingly irritated by overtures of romance from various Shire residents following the death of his mother four years ago, Bilbo is more than ready to resort to desperate measures. That is, up to and including pretending to be in a serious relationship with a certain surly blacksmith currently inhabiting the Bindbale Woods.

    It's a good idea after all; all they have to do is pretend to be in love over the Yuletide period and Bilbo's family and suitors will surely leave him alone after that. It's perfect! And nothing can possibly go wrong, right? Certainly nothing as preposterous as falling for one another for real...

    Summary

    “Did you hear the wonderful music? I don’t know who it is who’s playing, but I’m always tempted to go upstairs, if only to applaud them when they’re finished.”

    “You should go upstairs one day,” Thorin says, and Bilbo’s smile fades.

    “Oh no, no no, I won’t be doing such,” he says. “Terribly sorry, but I’ll have to run, students to teach you know!” he winks and pats the satchel at his hip.

    “I think they’d appreciate it,” Thorin chuckles after him.”
