Day One
Time: medieval
Character(s): Gwaine
Pairing: Gwaine x Merlin
Gwaine was lying as close to the campfire as possible. He had wanted to be in the next village in a nice warm tavern by nightfall, but somehow he had ended up on the cold hard floor with no horse and barely anything left.
He prided himself in being one of the best, when it came to fighting (although not always fair and square…) But how was he supposed to take on a rather large group of bandits that teamed up with a sorceress? Not even the bloody princess of Camelot would've stood a chance against them!
He shivered. It had started snowing a while ago.
But then the realization hit him: Snow! If it was snowing, it meant that it would be Christmas soon.
And if it would soon be Christmas then it meant that he hadn't been in Camelot for almost a year now… He had gone almost a year without seeing Merlin.
Merlin.
Gods, how he missed him sometimes. He just wanted to see him again; was that too much to ask for?
A plan was starting to form in his head. It would be dangerous. He was banned after all…
But for Merlin? For his Merlin? He would gladly do it!
Maybe, after all they've been through, there will be a little Christmas miracle for them.
