Two years later….

Harry has watched Eggsy grow over the last two years, from a timed child who was scared of his own shadow to a young man who walk up to armed nut job and kick him in the balls if he need to. Even Merlin finely let his guard down with the young man and took him under his wing to teach him some of his own work. This did bother Harry but he need Merlin to watch Eggsy while he was a mission to make sure the boy was safe as he could be.

Currently Harry was on a mission and didn't know that Eggsy got into trouble at school, he was sat in front of Merlin who was frowning at the 14 year old who was sporting a black eye and a busted lip "Give me a reason why I shouldn't have you over my knee and smack your bum?" He asked "Or why I should tell your father?" Eggsy looked up with a frown

"I'm too old to have a smack bum?" He said, the Scot's man didn't look impressed

"Don't be cute, you punched a kid… no scratched that a group of kids for what reason?" Merlin asked this time opening the com up so Harry could hear without the young boy knowing. Eggsy sighed and looked down at his hands

"They were being rude about dad and… and…you." He said, Merlin jerked his head at the boy's words

"What were they saying?" He asked more softly as he handed Eggsy a box of tissues

"Well they are saying nasty things because they have seen dad drop me off at School and then they see you drop me off at school when dad is away. I don't think it's odd but they do because they have a mother and father and not two fathers." Merlin raised an eye brown

'Give him a hug.' Harry said to Merlin quietly.

The Scot's men stood up and walked over to the young boy and knelt in front of him and pulled him up into a hug "Am I still in trouble? "

"Yes but I won't smack your bum. So I think we should band you from training with Lancelot, Eggsy sighed and nodded

"Yes Merlin." That made both Harry and Merlin please that he didn't try and fight the punishment. So Merlin went to work mopping up the blood on the boy's chin looking at the bloody lip

"Eggsy do you see me like that? As a father?" The boy shifted and looked up at him

"Yeah I guess I do, I know I call you uncle Merlin and that is fine but when Dad is away you look after me like dad does." Merlin hummed

"Some time people are too snobbish and I know the Kingman can be I mean look at your father…

'Hey?'

"Or even Arthur but we understand human behaviour can't always be straight laced as the world want us to be. Everyone is different as you know. Harry is straight as a ruler…" Merlin said

'What am I leaving my son to? Merlin what are you doing' Harry said down the ear piece

"And you should know there is nothing wrong with being gay or anything like that." He smiled at him. Eggsy rubbed his black eye and nodded

"Okay.

"Good now go and get cleaned up." Eggsy walked out the room feeling more confused than ever.

Merlin smirked as he sat back in his chair looking at his tablet as Harry started talking 'Merlin I don't mind you talk to Eggsy about life but be careful about my person preferences he is still young and what his step-father did to him still haunts him.'

"Galahad Eggsy is made of strong stuff relax, I am sure he already knows your preferences." Merlin said as he flicks though some files "And as for that that so call man did to him he needs to be shown there is nothing dark or wrong with whatever he feels. Hurry up and finish the mission."

When Harry came back he took Eggsy to his favourite restaurant McDonalds. If anyone saw them they would say that they were father and son and no one would argue that. "How was school?" Harry asked, Eggsy sighed and took a sip of his cola

"I was kicked out for hitting a couple of thick headed morons." He told him as he looked up after placing his hands in his lap "Merlin has already punished me for it." Harry watched him for a moment before leaning back in the soft leather padding seat. Even tho there was a 25 people around them all talking among themselves or looking into the bottom of the coffee cups wishing them to refill themselves before saying

"I read the report and I think you were justified in teaching those narrow minded boys a lesson. I do not think that level of violence was necessary to make your point. I will speak to their parents about their view." He told him, Eggsy looked up at him and smiled weakly

"Merlin say you're not as straight as a ruler."

"Yeah well Merlin would know." Harry muttered as he saw the boy he cared for tilt his head and looked at him oddly

"Are you and Merlin…shagging?" He asked

"I'm sorry how old are you? Are you 16 years old?" Harry smirked at him as Eggsy smiled back at him "Any how no… not any more. Merlin has a life partner." He smiled.

They ate quietly taking their times over their big Macs and fries and then the 14 year old looked up as he pushed his glasses up his nose and looked at the older man "What about you? In the last two years I haven't seen you with any one?" Eggsy asked and if Harry wasn't a gentlemen he would have choked on his chip

"I am quite happy at the moment with my life you do not need to worry about it." He watched Eggsy for a moment and saw something in the young boy's face and decide to ask about it later

"You should find someone daddy." And just like that Harry decide he was going to murder Merlin.
