Summary: After the battle of Camlann's comes to an end Merlin first believes Arthur to be dead. Of course that not how it all ends before Merlin can bit his good byes Arthur rises again. But, that`s the least of his problems what will Merlin do When the dragon tells him Arthur is`t his only destiny anymore?

A tiny idea I`m not sure if to continue...

Before you continue reading here are somethings you should know: Yes Gwen and Arthur are married (but not for long I`ll ruin that for them) Gwen is sort of a bitch; so no she isn't her usual sweet annoying self (because that obviously changed after Arthur and her became an official couple in the show) and right now Gwen has full authority over well everything in the kingdom considering Arthur is in his dream world right now.

A/N: If you see something off here that dose not quite go well with the character then ignore it because well it isn`t going to be easy to keep them in character; but don`t worry I`ll try my best to. And don`t ask about how Gwen acts because I`m fairly certain I`m trying to make her seem as much as a bitch as I can possible.

Disclaimer: (I do not own Merlin in any humanly way possible) Merlin? No-no I don`t think I have heard of such a thing. Is that the old guy with the beard and the hat?

Prologue:

"I've failed?" Merlin asked eyes red with hot tears streaming down his face. "No, young warlock," Kilgharrah reassured him shaking his head. "for all that you have dreamt of building, has come to pass."

"I can't lose him! He's my friend!"

"Though no man, no matter how great, can know his destiny, some lives have been foretold, Merlin...Arthur is not just a King-he is the Once and Future King. Take heart, for when Albion's need is greatest, Arthur will rise again. It has been a privilege to have known you, young warlock-the story we have been a part of will live long in the minds of men."

"Merlin, shut up..." Arthur grumbled face frowned eye leads closed. "I`m trying to sleep..." Merlin turned to look at Arthur tears still streaming down his face. He rushed to the wound but it was`t there anymore...Merlin was a mess of a million feelings he wanted to kill Arthur for making him cry, he wanted to drown in happiness and he actually wanted to kiss the prat! But instead he hugged the sleeping body. Then he turned to face Kilgharrah. "What happened?"

"What needed to happen. Arthur has risen again...tough it was rather fast don`t you think?"

Arthur...how was he going to say anything at all to him...

He had passed trough his 20 stages of shock when he finally snapped out of it and could actually accept that Arthur was alive and nothing was going to happen to him...for now and that he hand`t failed his destiny. Morgana was dead and Arthur had killed Mordred. Now the one thing that was bothering him was how he was he going to tell Arthur that for some dammed reason he had been granted eternal life. Or so the dragon had said before making his usual dramatic exit telling Merlin: "Until our paths cross again young Warlock." He spread his wings and flew away.

It had been 2 day`s since he returned to Camelot with Arthur still sleeping; and 2 day`s since he had been thrown into the fucking dungeons he knew why he was there. Arthur was unconscious and asleep and while not the whole of Camelot knew all he had done for him the knights and Gwen did; but Gwen had still send him to the bloody old smelly dungeons, to wait till Arthur woke up again and decided his fate. Even tough Arthur had accepted him for who he was; he had been dying at the moment maybe, maybe he would change his mind even burn ...

flashback:

Merlin had returned from the lake with help of his magic carrying Arthur back to the castle, making him a whole much lighter than he was. He tried carrying him without it, thinking Arthur wouldn't like it afterwards when he woke up, the fact that Merlin had used magic on him. But he had no choice, plus it wasn't his fault he had already told him he was fat...

When he entered the castle he had had to use a sleeping spell on every guard that approached him and he meant every single one of them because each time he tried to explain or even come close to open his mouth they tried to attack him. And so he gave up in his 5 encounter, the attempt of making peace with them.

When he entered the throne room Gwen was sitting there surrounded by the knights. She was talking to them but he didn't care of what they were talking and apparently it wasn't all that important anymore, because when she saw him with Arthur she stopped talking and looked back and forth between them. All the nights then looked back at what she was staring. They smiled and some of the looked shocked.

Gwen ran towards him as he placed Arthur on the floor and she hugged him. "Arthur." She leaned down by him as she took him in her arms and kissed him in the forehead.

The knights walked fast towards them except for Gwaine that ran towards Merlin to hug him. Gwen looked up at Percival and then at Gwaine and ordered them to have Arthur being checked up by Gaius. "Merlin you should come too you are-

"No, I have to talk to him." Gwen cut him of and dismissed them leaving only her, Merlin and 2 anonymous guards in the room.

"Tell me Merlin." Gwen said in a very cold distant tone he had never imagined her having. "You do realize magic is a crime punished by death, right?" As soon as the words magic left Gwen's mouth both guards took hold of Merlin. He had expected she would tell them it wasn't necessary but he obviously had hoped for to much as Gwen only raised an eyebrow at him and he scoffed.

"Ho do you know?"

Gwen ignored the question and went on. "You lied Merlin, you betrayed the trust Arthur and I had on you. The least I can do is let you off with a quick death." She sighed. "But, for your loyalty to Arthur I will let you live till he awakes and let him decide your fate." Merlin's heart ache it hurt, it hurt much more than he would ever admit if she trusted him so much she would at least listen to him.

He tried to form words in the back of his throat but he just stayed frozen on the spot.

The next thing he knew he was being thrown into the dungeons. He was shocked hurt and he felt alone...he had no-one. Sure he had Gaius and his mother but neither of them could help him gain the trust he had lost back again. he could escape right now and there would be no-one able to stop him from doing so, but while he had been able to protect Arthur magic was still outlawed in Camelot and he would stay alive till it was`t anymore. If Arthur's choice was to kill him the he would`t allow it and he would just escape, if Arthur was`t able to kill him then he could still be in Camelot till the time comes after all both of them had all eternity in the other hand if Arthur banished him he didn't know what he was going to do. If Gwen had`t been able to accept him then that was`t even an option for Arthur.

"What the hell Gwen!" Gwaine stormed into the room Leon and Elyan following trying to restrain him. Gwen looked wide eyed at them raising an eye brow at him. "Why did you throw Merlin into the dungeons?!" He spat angrily at her. "He is a sorcerer Gwaine; it tough it was clear the punishment for such practices here in Camelot." She said as if she were simply talking about the weather. "He should have thought about that before he came to live here. You should be happy I`m-

"Bullshit! Merlin sorcerer or not has risked his life for Arthur and Camelot more times than anyone can count!"

"And so have a lot of you." She agreed sitting down to eat. "That`s why I`m letting him live till Arthur wakes up again."

Gwaine continued ignoring what she had said, Leon and Elyan had long let go of him. "He is more committed to Arthur than you." He scowled at her knowing this would get attention. She flinched at lifted up her gaze. "He has risked his life for Arthur, for all of us countless times and none of us knew it. He did it just for the good of it not taking anything in return not waiting for not even a thanks in return. He won us a battle we did`t have a chance a winning god knows how many more there have been. And you think he deserves this?" Gwen stared at him infuriated the grip of her fist piercing trough her skin. "Take him away."

I swear this is not going to be tragic or sad; I promise. It is going to be a bit of a drama but it`s mostly humor and romance. :)
