He's sitting there waiting like he had been the last decade or so waiting for his King to return. He had nothing else to do everyone he loved was gone, he had seen everything there was to see there was nothing else for him to do but wait. Something today had a different feel though a different charge in the air. Maybe it was just wishing thinking but Merlin had a feeling something was going to happen today. These were his last thoughts before he drifted off to sleep. He was awoken a short while later by the sound of splashing water ahead of him he looked up and saw a blur of silver, red, and blonde hair it was him. Merlin ran to meet him launching himself at Arthur and Arthur caught him pulling him into a hug, after a short while later their lips met and they could both taste each other's salty tears.
