Title : Arthur, I Have a Confession…

Author: Nemainofthewater

A/N: I and my friend were talking on MSN about Merlin, and we challenged each other to write scenes about how Arthur would react to Merlin being a sorcerer.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything you recognise. It all belongs to the BBC.

Take One

Merlin: Arthur, I have a confession.

Arthur: (impatiently) What is it now Merlin?

Merlin: I'm a sorcerer.

Arthur: That's great. This way you can do more work. Now, my bedchambers are a mess and the stables need to be mucked out. Since you have magic, I'll expect it done in two hours.

Merlin: (looking confused) What?

Arthur: Quickly Merlin! Honestly, you're the worst servant I've ever had!

Arthur walks away, leaving Merlin looking very confused.

Take Two

Merlin: Arthur, I have a confession.

Arthur: What is it Merlin? I really don't have time for this.

Merlin: It's very important.

Arthur: Fine, just don't forget to clean my bedchambers after, they're disgusting!

Merlin: I'm a sorcerer.

Arthur: Yes, that's very nice, and I suppose that's why you can never finish your chores? Get on with them!

Merlin: But it's true!

Arthur: Yes, yes I believe you, now hurry up and start cleaning. And once you've done that you can polish my armour.
