#Master And Servant#

"Merlin!"

Hearing Arthur call his name so early in the morning was something Merlin was used to, he had done it every morning for years know. Arthur was not a morning person, not by far.

And having a, in his eyes, lazy servant drove him crazy. Merlin could not do mutch about his current situation, its not like he could tell arthur why he never had time to do his chores, if he said

`sorry Arthur cant polish your amor today, i have a gnome i need to slay, ya'know with magic´ Arthur would have his head... on a plate.

Merlin had some hope that maybe their friendship would make Arthur spare his life, but recent events had him doubt his hope. Uther was dead and gone, yet The hunt for those how did magic had not stoped and Merlin feared that Arthurs hatred for magic were real and not just an akt of loyalty to his father.

"Merlin!" Arthur were now banging his fist att Merlins bedroom door, Merlin grunted and buied his head deep in his pillow. He had been up all night practiseing magic and he was exasted.

"Go away." he whined at the door, regreting his worlds a second later as he remember how sharp Arthurs hearing was.

"WHAT did you say?" Arthur growled and the second later he had kicked the old and weak door in, he walked quickly and were at the bed in the blink of an eye, he pulled the cover of this friend who still lay on his belly with his head deeply hidden in his pillow.

"Go away,My Lord" merlin replyed,no joke intended. Sadly Arthur did not se it that way...

Suddenly Merlin was on the cold stone floor, Arthur had flipt the bed on its back. Merlin moaned and the morning light blinded him were he lay, flat on his back. Arthur strod forwad and stood above him blocking most of the light.

" You overslept" he said smileing a very non happy crepy smile.

´Obviously´Merlin Thougt

" Whats your exuse?" Arthur continued "And if you say that you were out drinking again, you drunk, Im going to.."

"I was not! I swear!" Merlin said to his defence, still on the cold floor and he cursed him self for useing that excuse to manny times, now Arthur and the entire royal court thougt he was a drunk.

"I were..." Merlin said trying to make something better up but all he could think was ´I was at the inn`, Merlins heart were to kind to lie. Ore to stupid.

"You were...?" Arthur said impatiently, gestureing with his hand for him to continue.

"I were..." Merlin sat up straight as he got an idea " I met a girl!"

Merlin was quite proud of his idea, it was a simple normal idea that diden't have any followup questions, or so he thougt.

"YOU met a girl?" Arthur said laying extra weight on the word ´You´, clearly not buying it. "What's her name?"

´Quickly` Merlin thougt ´A name! Lanselot, Gwain, Gaius. No! A girls name! Gwen, no that was Arthurs girl. Freya...

He haddent thougt of her in a long time, sweet Freya. Dead Freya.

Merlin were at his feet quickly and pulled his red shirt over his head, hiding his face from Arthur and laughing a fake laugh.

" You got me! Ther's no girl" he said and walked pass Arthur " Me and Gawain were dinking again, won't happen again, I promise My'Lord"

And then he were gone leaving Arthur dumbfound in the middle of the room, wondering what to do with what he just had witness. He had never seen tears in Merlins eyes before. But comfort were sadly not something that came easy to Arthur.

" My armor still needs cleaning!" he shouted after his friend who were already long gone.
