There she stood. A shining angel with magic pulsing through her veins and making her glow slightly, fear filled her usually bright emerald eyes and her face was thin and hollow from the stress of her recent discovery. I hated seeing her like that, standing in front of everyone knowing she was different, It broke my heart knowing how she felt but I knew I couldn't tell her, the Dragon would kill me and destinies a funny thing.
I walked into my chamber, ran a hand through my raven coloured hair and let out a shaky sigh. I would not cry over her, tears threatened to spill down my cheeks and I blinked them quickly away, it felt like someone was tugging my heart in opposite directions until finally it would break.
Morgana wasn't just my dearest friend she was the woman I had fallen in love with, from the moment I saw her on that balcony watching the execution I couldn't get her out of my head and when I finally met her I was dazzled by her beauty and wonderful personality, I helped her save Gwen and get the druid boy out of Camelot and we developed a quick friendship built with trust and, although she didn't know, love. I ran my hand shakily through my hair again and sat on the bed.
"If you keep doing that your hair will fall out," came a voice from the door making me fall off the bed in fear, I looked up and saw Morgana standing there looking radiant in a silky red dress.
"If you keep scaring me like that then I'll die of fright," I joked causing her to laugh loudly, she was like the old Morgana again for just a moment before she melted away in front of me.
"I wanted to say thank you for helping me get to the druids," she mumbled fiddling with the front of her dress.
"But you were caught?" I asked looking down at her.
"But you tried Merlin and I'll never forget that," her emerald eyes meeting blue and holding them for a moment before looking away, her cheeks flushing a light pink.
"You're welcome..." I mumbled staring at the ground shuffling my feet feeling awkward, I wanted to tell her but the words stuck in my throat threatening to choke me. "Morgana I need to tell you something."
"What is it Merlin?"
"I'm a..."
"MERLIN!"
I cringed at the sound of Arthurs voice and looked down at the woman trying hard not to giggle, I stuck my tongue out causing her to laugh louder.
"Maybe I should go..." I said taking her hand and kissing it lightly, she smiled cheekily at me and watched me leave, I felt self conscious with her watching but every time I looked back I couldn't help but smile as our conversation ran through my mind making me whistle happily to work.
