"None will disturb us." She lifts her head and smiles sleepily at him, stroking his face. "Among the Riders there is sometimes a tradition, whereupon a bridegroom is seized in the early hours of the morning after his wedding, and taken out and dunked in a horse's trough to wake him. But you are not a Rider, and besides I told my brother I would be most displeased if any such disruption occurred. I think he will heed me, in this."
And prevent any other mischief, she trusts, whether it is generated by his own Riders or by Faramir's guard, many of them former Rangers who are used to treating their Captain with teasing affection as much as respect. Eomer has a hearty sense of humor, but he loves his sister. They will be safe from mischief for today. Though tomorrow may be another matter...or even this afternoon...
But for now she settles herself back down comfortable, nuzzling against the warmth of her husband's body (wonderful thought!).
