Not much of an authur's note on this because I just cant be bothered. SO THERE! I am SO SORRY that it took so long to get this up, but my computer broke, but now I've got a laptop so I can post more often. YAY!

Disclaimer: If you have a problem with the fact that I DON'T OWN MERLIN, then take it up with my lawyer... which I definatley have...probably.

Enjoy! (:

Arthur mentally kicked himself and raced back to his room, what kind of idiot doesn't check for concussion? Arthur quickly tried to remember what to look out for. Memory loss was one, err... change of personality or perhaps if he began to speak a different language. Gaius had told Arthur once that memory loss was the most common.

The king burst through the doors to his own chambersas fast as lightening. His servant hadn't moved and was still asleep, although his face was contorted in pain and he kept muttering to himself. Arthur ran towards him and shook him viciously.

"...Ar-thur?" Merlin mumbled, sleepily. He rubbed head gently and hissed in pain at the touch. "Ouch."

The king sighed in relief, he hadn't lost his memory and he hadn't started speaking a different language, athough, he did look worse. He looked pale and sickly like somedying child. Arthur shook him again, this time less urgently, to keep him awake as he noticed his servants eye-lids droop.

"What is your... problem... Ar-thur?" Merlin rubbed his eyes.

"I...um... fancied a chat. How has your day been?" Arthur kicked himself again at the stupid question. Merlin's head drooped and Arthur decided that the best way to keep him awake would be to sit next to him and nudge him every time he noticed any sign that he was falling asleep, and moved into possition. Merlin grunted and shuffledto the side slightly to make room for his master. "How are you feeling?" There, that was a better question.

"Awful... tired." Arthur nudged him. Merlin gave a low growl that was very feeble.

"You can't fall asleep, Merlin. Please, I need you to stay awake, okay?"Merlin muttered something about his head hurting. "I'm sending for Gaius. Dont you dare fall asleep or I swear I'll shake you so hard to wake you up that I'll dislocate your shoulder. Got that?"Merlin nodded and shot his eyes open and sat up, knowing that Arthur would keep his promise.

Merlin watched through teared eyes as his master walked to the door and ordered some guards to send for Gaius. Merlin heard footsteps as the guard ran to do the kings will. Arthur soun on his heel and smiled a stupid grin at the sight of Merlin awake and Merln couldn't help but give a small smile back.

There. DONE! (I mean the chapter... not the book/story/ficlet/fic/full-blown-out-fic) (: Hope it pleased you're tastes for Merthur bromance x x x
