"Merlin?" Merlin looked up from his food as Gaius turned around. Gwen stood in the doorway.
"Gwen? Is something wrong?" Merlin asked.
"It's Morgana. She told me to come find you. She wants to talk to you now." Gwen replied.
Merlin stood up and shot a questioning look at Gaius. "Why?"
"I don't know." Gwen said. Merlin followed her out the door.
"Thank Gwen. For helping me."
"It was nothing. You would have done the same." They stopped. "Milady. It's Gwen with Merlin."
"Gwen you can go for tonight. Send Merlin in." Morgana's voice came, muffled by the door.
"Go on Gwen. Night." Merlin said and opened the door. Morgana stood there, arms crossed, looking very mad.
"You wanted to see me?" Merlin started off. Then Morgana slapped him. "Ow! What was that for?"
"For not telling me about you magic!" Morgana growled.
"Well go announce it to the world." Merlin muttered.
"It's true. You're a sorcerer. I saw your eyes glow, when that monster, Aridean had me at knife point. You saved my life." Morgana asked. "Where did you learn it?"
"I was born with magic Morgana. I wanted to tell you but Gaius and the Dragon told me not to. You have know idea how it is to keep this a secret." Merlin admitted.
"Gaius knows? And what dragon?" Morgana demanded.
"Oh there's just a great dragon under the castle that I visit." Merlin replied. "You know I should go..." He turned to leave but Morgana's strong arm pulled him back.
"You should have told me. But... I'm willing to forgive you... At a price." Morgana smirked.
"What price?" Merlin asked.
"Teach me."
They agreed to meet in the woods Friday night, two days from now. Merlin would make an excuse of picking herbs and Morgana could easily sneak out. They'd have to leave at different times so no one would suspect some sort of tryst or something. They would change the day they met every time. They had to take extreme precautions.
Friday night came quickly and neither of them had trouble sneaking out. Merlin was sitting at the edge of a clear, wearing his normal attire.
"Merlin." Morgana said as she saw him. He sprung to his feet and smiled.
"Morgana." He replied.
