Merlin fell to the ground, unconscious.
"MERLIN!" Arthur yelled as he fell to his knees, Gwaine was close behind.
'Only a kiss from his true love will bring him back…if his heart fails and will still survive the better the strength of their love will be' Was written on the note.
"Damn…I knew the apples were poisoned!" Arthur yelled.
The knights helped Merlin to the bed.
"He's fading…" Gwaine said as he felt for a pulse.
"So…who is his love?" Percival asked.
Elyan shrugged. "I barely know him but he helped me once…maybe…" He said as his lips met Merlin's, nothing happened and he stepped back.
Sir Leon went to the warlock side.
"He's dying…hurry!" Gwaine rushed.
Sir Leon nodded and pressed his lips to Merlin's, when the parted Gwiane sobbed.
"He…oh…god..he's gone…"
"Done worry, his true love will help him!" Arthur said
Percival went up and kissed him, nothing.
The knight backed away.
Arthur went up to the mans side.
"I love Gwen but…err….were like brothers so we can't…" Arthur said as he bed down.
"Merlin…" Arthur whispered as their lips met, he did pull back, he always wanted to feel Merlin's lips on him.
"Oi, stop!" Gwaine said.
Nothing happened.
"Well… that's good…" Arthur chuckled as he joined the knights.
"Maybe it's a maid…I'll inform the knights to tell their maidens…" Percival said and left.
Gwaine went up to him, he laid his hand on Merlin's cheek.
"No…" He breathed.
"Why?" Arthur asked.
"Its hopeless… he's …dead…" Gwaine sobbed.
"Get Gaius…and I'll take Merlin to my chambers…" Gwaine said as he lifted Merlin to his arms.
Arthur nodded and followed.
(Break)
Its midnight, Arthur sat near the bed, Gwaine sat next to Merlin, keeping the blanket on him.
Gwaine sighed.
His hand stroked Merlin's cold cheek.
"Merlin…" He smiled as he bent down, kissing him.
His other hand held Merlin's jaw.
He felt Merlin move.
He pulled back, seeing Merlin breathing.
Gwaine laughed with happiness.
"Merlin…" He smiled, tears falling down.
"Gwaine…" Merlin smiled.
Then their lips met again.
