Title-Firelight
Fandom-Merlin
Ship- Arthur/Morgana
Rating- M (Not totally sure if it is quite an 'M' but just incase)
Summary-Some completely pointless and baseless fluff concerning Arthur and Morgana after their 'wedding' (which I know won't happen- but I'm in denial.) I'm hoping to start the ball rolling with some more Arthur/Morgana, as much as I like Arthur/Merlin, this ship is seriously lacking supporters considering how awesome it is.

Morgana's breath hitched in her throat as she heard the door open with a slight creak. As she turned slowly to face it her heart drummed so frantically she was sure it would beat its way out of her chest. The shadowy figure at the door seemed to have frozen but she could feel the heaviness of his eyes on her, and for the first time in their acquaintance she blushed and dropped her gaze to the floor, feeling utterly exposed.
In the dull light of the flickering fire she heard the door click close and footsteps pace carefully towards her. She could not look up, in all her years she could never have imagined this. Her heart raced faster and she trembled with thrill and lingering trepidation.
"Morgana" His voice was soft and low, little more than a whisper.
She looked up to meet Arthur's gaze, eyes sparkling in the firelight and blonde hair glinting with flecks of gold. An expectant silence hung between them but as Arthur moved to speak again Morgana quickly closed the gap between them and placed a finger on his lips, a tiny smile creeping onto hers.
"Shhh"
They paused and she moved her hand to brush and strand of hair from his eyes, bringing her hand to rest on his cheek.
"Husband" She whispered and placed a tentative kiss on his lips which left her face hovering millimeters from his. She kept her eyes closed and gasped slightly as she felt Arthur wrap his strong arms around her waist, pulling her body flush against his. Her lips against his.
She'd joked that Arthur was a fighter, not a lover, but his hands were gentle, almost reverent, as they held her and he kissed her slowly and gently. Amidst the dizziness she would have laughed at the unexpectedness of the situation but he stole her breath away with deepening kisses and she grasped at his shirt like she was drowning and he her only hope of safety.
They seemed to stumble towards the bed, arms entwined, stealing frantic kisses, breaths quick and shallow. She felt Arthur stoop as her gathered her in his arms and for a perfect, blissful moment, cradle her against his warm chest before laying her carefully on the crimson sheets of his bed.
Arthur leant over her to place an infinitely gentle kiss on her forehead before standing back momentarily to draw his shirt over his head and toss it to the side. Morgana mirrored his action, with self-consciousness gone, began to undo the tie of her gown while keeping her eyes fixed on his. She let the light fabric fall away from her body and the firelight licked up her white skin.
Taking her hand from where he stood beside the bed Arthur raised it to his lips and kissed it.
"You're beautiful" he murmured and Morgana shivered in surprise at hearing the words from him, from Arthur. Pushing herself up from the bed she wrapped her arms around his neck and drew him into a kiss. Resting her cheek against his she whispered in his ear.
"I love you...always have"
Arthur fixed his piercing blue eyes upon her and softly kissed her cheek.
"I know."
