This is my first story on this site so I hope that it was loaded right.
You Were Never My Friend!
Arthur has been a Royal pain in the backside ever since he found out about Merlin's magic. Instead of being angry like anyone would expect, Arthur has been hounding Merlin to do all sorts of tricks. It was like being around a child who would beg and plead for sweets.
"Merlin, will you grant me a wish?" Arthur asked again for sixth time this hour.
"No, Arthur, I told you that magic is to be used only for good; that is its true purpose. It's not meant for your own vanity." Merlin responded tiredly.
Arthur was persistent. The next few weeks were trying for Merlin. He tried avoiding Arthur at all cost but since Merlin was now a member of the Court, he could not avoid Arthur indefinitely. He followed Merlin to the armory, he followed him to the kitchens, he even followed Merlin when he went to gather herbs for Guias (he was really trying to escape from Arthur that time). Arthur would ask Merlin the same question: " Will you grant me a wish?"
"No, for the last time, Arthur!" A frustrated Merlin let out.
"Why not?" Arthur whined.
"Because I don't grant wishes to friends." Merlin said, hoping the matter will drop.
Arthur's face screwed up in rage and it turned all red. His body stiffened and he pointed to the warlock and shouted, "YOU WERE NEVER MY FRIEND! I HAVE ALWAYS HATED YOUR GUTS!"
All of the knights stared at their king like he had lost his mind. Gwen took a couple of steps away from Arthur to find protections amongst the knights. The King appears to have truly lost his mind.
A shocked Merlin stared at Arthur for a moment and then a small smile lit up his face as he said, "Aw come on, Arthur, don't be that way."
Arthur's face crumbled and he said in a small voice, "I just wanted one little wish. What's wrong with wishing I could turn invisible and prank the knights?"
Merlin clasped Arthur on the back and started walking back to the castle with him. "Come on, chew on some of these herbs that I collected for Gauis and I guarantee that you won't get too drunk and will be able to out drink Gwaine at the tavern tonight."
"OK"
