The knights and Arthur were hunting, it was cold and raining.
As night soon arrived, the weather lifted, all were thankful.
When midnight came, all were asleep.
Suddenly Merlin started to snore.
Arthur and Gwaine woke up, both in-between the man.
"Whats he doing, Merlin never snores..." Arthur whispered over to Gwaine, looking at how the warlock's brows furrowed.
Gwaine sighed and wrapped his arms around Merlin's waist, hugging him tightly.
"Shhh...shhh...i'm here..." Gwaine whispered into Merlin's ear.
The raven haired man calmed.
Arthur gasped in amazement.
"Merlin told me, when he lived in Ealdor, the kids teased him, saying he was weak like a girl, he tried to prove him wrong, and don't laugh...he was only five..." Gwaine stared.
Arthur nodded.
"He thought that if you were manly...you snored...so he did it and well...it became a habit and now a days, he only does it when he feels lonely and lost...so if i show him that i'm here or just hold him close he wont feel so lonely..." Gwaine explained and let his fingers stroke Merlin's hair, sometimes he placed small kiss on Merlin's cheeks.
It was sweet, beautiful.
