Hey readers! This is my first attempt of a fanfiction so please do t rip be apart! I got the idea off of Tumblr and had to wrote this! Enjoy!
"Be careful with that! I didn't travel half way across the world just for you to throw it in the god damn sea!" Captain Arthur Pendragon shouted at his crew.
He was stressed. He had just come back to England after a 2 year expedition around the world and he was anxious to see his love again. It had been so long and he wanted to see if she still loved him. Just before he'd left, Gwen had found out she was pregnant. She hadn't wanted kids but Arthur had. They'd had a massive argument and it ended with Arthur storming out. That was the last time he had seen her and he wanted to say that he was sorry, that he wished he could take back what he'd said and tell her how much he had missed her these past 2 years.
"Gwaine!" He called and, as always, his first mate came running up.
"Captain?" He looked ready to help. He knew Arthur was worried about going home and water to leave the docks as soon as he could.
"How's the ship? Is she all docked and safe for the time being?" He glanced around nervously, trying to keep his nerve and remain in control but his nerves were staring to get the better of him.
Gwaine understood what he meant. After 2 years living in a very cramped environment, it was easy to pick up on the other person's body language. "Yes sir, everything is under control."
Arthur breathed a sigh of relief. " Good work." He looked around at the place that he now called home once again. "We've been away so long… London has changed so much." He looked around at the shining new buildings he could see in the distance. "Apparently 2 years is a much longer time than I had though."
Gwaine nodded "Yes sir I suppose it is." He looked him in the eyes. "Sir?"
"Yes? What is it?" He looked at the man that stood before him. The years at sea has aged him and he could see the many long nights had taken its toll. After what had happened in the Bermuda triangle, he now trusted him entirely. He had saved his life that day. If it had not been for him, he would not be here today.
"Good luck tonight. I hope everything works out between you and Gwen."
Arthur shifted uncomfortably but kept eye contact with his first mate, his best friend. "Thank you Gwaine. I am lucky to have you as a friend. You have always been the most loyal to me, even in the darkest of days. Thank you. Now get yourself home, you don't want to keep your wife waiting.' With that he shook his hand and turned on his heel, striding towards his love that (he hoped) was waiting for him at him.
