Sadly I don't own Merlin. It belongs to the BBC.

This story is AU and rated T because of swearing.

I don't know how many chapters this story will have, we'll just see how it goes.

Enjoy :D


Morgana parked her car in her usual space and turned of the ignition. Picking up her handbag from the passengers seat, she got out of the car and made her way to the lifts to go to her flat.

She pushed the button and waited for the lifts to open, when they did, a woman in her mid forties stepped out. "Oh, hello Morgana. Just finished work?"

"Yeah. That's it until Monday."

"How's your love life? Still single?"

"What do you mean, still single? Of course I'm still single I only broke up with Steven last week."

"And you haven't found someone else yet?"

"No. How he treated me has put me off men for a while."

"Oh don't be silly Morgana. If a bloke treats you bad, you show him you're over him by jumping into bed with someone else as soon as."

Morgana felt her temper rising. She'd had a really shit day at work which has topped the week off just nicely. All she wanted to do was have a nice hot shower and settle in front of the telly with a glass of wine.

"Danielle I'm not the kind of woman who goes out, meets a bloke, shares his bed then fucks off the next morning."

"Well you should be. That's how I am, that's where I'm going now, to a bar, see if I can hook up with someone."

"Let me guess, after that when you wake up in his bed tomorrow, you leave before he wakes up and then tomorrow night, you go out and do the same thing?"

"Yeah."

"Yeah, well, no offence but there are names for woman like you. Now excuse me." Morgana snapped at her before pushing her way past to get in the lift. She pushed the button with the number six on and as the door started to shut, she saw Danielle start to walk away and saw how short her skirt was. "And I've got belts that are wider then that skirt you're wearing. Seriously. Why even bother." she shouted as the lift doors shut. Morgana sighed and pushed her hair out of her face.


When the lift doors opened, she stepped out and made her way towards her flat. As she walked past the door next to hers she saw it was open and had a quick look inside as she walked past and saw boxes all around the flat.

It's about time someone moved in. she thought. It's been empty for months. Morgana reached her door and just as she was getting her keys out of her bag she heard a smash come from the flat next to her followed by a bloke swearing. "Oh bollocks." he said.

"You tell me to be careful whilst moving your stuff, which I do, and then as soon as we get it to your new flat in one piece you go and drop something causing it to smash into pieces." another bloke said.

"You know what I'm like Leon. If I'm not tripping over my own feet I'm breaking things. And besides it was mine, and if I want to break it, I'll break it."

"But you didn't want to break it though, did you."

"Well no. But I can always buy another one." he confirmed. Morgana could tell that how he was speaking, he had a smile on his face. Smiling herself, she unlocked her door and let herself in.

When the door closed behind her, the bloke who smashed something stepped into the hall way and looked at the door that had just closed. He turned to Leon. "Was that my new neighbour?"

"It was. You lucky bastard."

"What do you mean?"

"I saw her walk past and glance in your flat, she didn't see me. But now I know what your neighbour looks like, how about I move in here and you have my flat."

"No Leon. I'll knock on her door and introduce myself later. Anyway, I've only got to get a couple of things from the boot of my car then everything has been moved, so you might as well go."

"I can stay for a bit."

"No you can't because aren't you supposed to be at work in an hour?"

Leon looked at his watch. "Oh shit. And I need to shower before going to work." he started to make his way towards the lifts. "I'll see you later mate." he called over his shoulder.

"Alright. And thanks for your help."

"No probs."

After her shower Morgana changed into her pyjamas, which were green skimpy shorts and a camisole to match. She got herself a glass of wine and sat down on her settee, when she went to put her glass on the coaster she noticed her answer phone was flashing indicating that she had a message, she put her glass down and pushed the button to hear Gwen's voice. "Hey Morgana, how are you? I'm ringing to apologise but obviously you're not home yet." Morgana frowned. "What's she got to apologise for?" she said to herself. As she carried on listening to her message she found the answer to her question.

"I told Arthur what Steven had done and why you broke up with him, I know you told me not to but you know what Arthur's like, he wouldn't let it drop until I told him, sorry Morgana. Anyway as soon as I told him he flipped his lid, I mean I've seen him mad before but not like this he-"

The machine beeped. "Message left at 5:04pm. Next message."

"Hey Morgana, its Gwen again, machine cut me off. Anyway as I was saying, Arthur got really mad and went round to Stevens flat, I went with him to make sure he didn't do anything stupid like kill him. He knocked on his door and as soon as Steven answered, Arthur punched him; I think Arthur broke his nose because I heard something crack. I managed to get Arthur to leave with me. Sorry again for telling him but he's your brother, he cares about you and is only looking out for you. We'll both come round and see you tomorrow, bye." The machine beeped again. "Message left at 5:06pm. No more messages."

Morgana chuckled to herself and got up to turn her telly on when there was a knock on her door. Walking over to her front door she opened it and saw a man stood there about same height as her, short black messy hair and blue eyes with a smile on his face.

"Hello." she said.

"Hello. I thought I'd introduce myself. I'm your new neighbour. I've just moved in next door."

"Well obviously if you're my new neighbour."

The bloke laughed. "Obviously." he held his hand out. "I'm Merlin."

"Morgana." she said smiling at him as she reached out to take his hand and shake it.


Well? Should I continue? If so. The next chapter will be up within two to three days.
