So I stumbled upon this nursery rhyme and I just had to, my muse was screaming and kicking and even though she needs to be writing other thing right now she wanted to write this, so here it is and I hope you'll like it. A small note though: All the parts are written but not all of them are going to be uploaded today, maybe tomorrow. Here is the rhyme and A/N is afterwards.

One for sorrow

Two for joy

Three for a girl

Four for a boy

Five for silver

Six for gold

Seven for a secret, never to be told

Eight for a wish

Nine for a kiss

Ten for a bird you must not miss

Hi there! A/N ahead:

Warnings: Death of various peoples though not anyone important, slash and fluff eventually. Oh and FYI this is a bit different from canon so yeah…

Pairings: Arthur/Merlin, Mentions of Balinor/Hunith, Mentions of Uther/Ygraine and Uther/ some random queen that I couldn't be bothered to come up with a name for her.

Disclaimer: Not mine, nor will they ever be and they belong to the BBC *these lucky busters*

Have fun and please comment, at least to let me know you liked it or something!
