As the group dispersed, Fin came toward Gaddy.
"Good plan, Gaddy."
The hobbit leader nodded in thanks.
"About pairing," Fin continued, " I would like to pair with Celeb. We are great friends and I would not want to be separated."
"I'll have to see about that," Gaddy said, before turning away.
Fin retunred to his table with Celeb and said, "Hopefully we will be together but if not then I hope that nothing will befall you."
"I'll be fine Fin, don't you worry," Celeb replied, smiling.
The two friends talked some more, but as the fire in hearth began to dim slightly, and many people retired, so the two friends made their way up the stairs and into bed.
