"You do not need confirmation from anyone to know that you are doing a good job Arthur, Morgana stated." "That's right, your father would have been proud of your accomplishments. Cenred is just envious that he and Morgause did not inherit the CEO position. You have been groomed for it your whole life." This was expressed by both Merlin and Gwaine. "I know. I know. it. it just gets me to me sometimes and I know that it should. not Just give me a moment, I will meet you, guys back at the flat. Its pizza and movie night right?" Arthur said. "Yes, Arthur it is, and it is ladies choice night for the movie." Morgana beamed as she said this. "I am so excited" Arthur, Gwaine, Merlin, and Leon said in unison. " You, guys are just plan wusses but that is okay, I have Guinevere, Elaine, Vivian, and Freya to keep me company, right Gwen?" "And you know this.." expressed Guinevere.
You've Got Mail
Arthur took the time in his office to type up another email to his new pen pal before he left the office.
Gwendolyn,
As much as I want to spend more time chatting tonight my friends have roped me into an evening at home. One day I hope you will be a part of it very soon. I will send you another email as soon as we are done.
Shawn.
Arthur could not explain it but the feelings that he received just expressing himself in writing to Gwendolyn was pure joy. Even with his several relationships he never felt as open as he is feeling now. This is odd for him because he is used to the supermodel types and he has no idea of how this Gwendolyn looks.
When they started sending emails he thought it would matter but now he just wants to see the person behind the emails. He also feels this way because he knows that this is not about his looks and his fortune. Someone may just be interested for him just for him. He has never found anyone until now that has. This is another reason for his insecurities. He knows most of those insecurities come from his father. He was raised to not be attached, raised to marry for the further of the company but and it was fine to think of it when he was younger but he had the one loveless encounter too many. "Its time to find some meaning in your life Arthur." He whispered to himself. He pressed send on his email and turned off his computer at work for the night heading home to pizza and movie night.
Movie Night
It is girls night the girls decided the movie should be romantic but that it had something for the guys too. They thought this would only be considerate. The chose the Twilight series movie Breaking Dawn because they thought that Edward was dreamy and that Jacob was hot. They also liked the vampire action scenes thinking that would be enough for the guys. Surprising both the women and the men enjoyed the movie. "That has to be one of my favorite movies in the series." Elena says "I do not know Eclipse was mine" Freya and Merlin say together. "Well the chicks were hot so it really did not matter, this was a good movie. I will gladly wait for part II." Gwaine says "I have to say I did not know what to expect but I have to say that it was rather good." Arthur states and the men raise an eyebrow because this surprises them that Arthur connected with this film to begin with. "I love the Twilight series" Gwen states " The whole series is romantic. I read all the books. Edward and Bella find love evens the middle of the barriers of him being a vampire and she being human. It makes no difference to them. They overcome obstacles and now they are finally beginning to reap the rewards." Gwen continues "I have to agree with Gwen," Morgana states. All agree and decide to make it a movie night when Part II comes out next at the movies.
The Girls Place
"I have to say, does anyone notice how hot Gwaine is looking lately?" Viviane states "Gwaine has always been hot it just a wonder that Gwaine takes someone seriously because like Arthur he always have a flavor of the month you know." Morgana states "Well I will settle for hot, sweet, and adorable in Merlin any day." Freya states "Leon is not so bad either and let's not forget Gwen's ex-beau Lancelot." Elena states "He still part of the group you know, even though he decided to head the India division of Pendragon Courts." she continued. "Well, heading the division took a backseat to heading with Gwen." Morgana comments. "I would say good riddens" she adds. "It is alright, I am a big girl and if he decided that the move was what he wanted then so be it, Maybe I lacked the draw to keep him here. It takes two to make a relationship work you know." Gwen continues "That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard." "You were the model girlfriend and you spoiled Lancelot rotten. If anything you were too good for him. You will find someone who is right for you soon, You are too good to be alone." Morgana adds

"What do you mean you will not be able to accompany me to San Francisco for the business meeting with Martin Olaf, Merlin?" Arthur yells "Freya has asked me over a month ago to be ready to meet her parents this weekend. Her parents have a ski trip planned and all, I cannot turn her down, it would really place a damper on our relationship. I am sorry, Arthur" Merlin explained. "Arthur, why do not you just take Gwen?" "She is just as capable as Merlin is and this will give her a chance to go some place outside Camelot. She is also very attentive and should be able to help the deal with Olaf go off without a hitch as she will keep you prepared as discussions changes course. She has been a great help to me over these years." Morgana states
"Morgana, I have no doubts in Guinevere's abilities but this is asking a lot of her don't you think?" Arthur states "Ask me what?" Gwen inquiries as she was in the Morgana's office at the same time. "Arthur needs you to accompany him to San Francisco for a meeting with Olaf over the weekend do you think that you can go? It would be greatly appreciated." Morgana states. "Arthur, if you need someone to accompany you I have no set in stone plans for the weekend and I know that Merlin has already made plans with Freya. A change of scenery would do wonders and I have never been to San Francisco before" Guinevere comments. "That is more or less everything that I said!" Morgana adds. "Alright, alright, Morgana. Guinevere, if you would accompany me it would be an honor." Arthur comments. "So be it, tell me where do you want us to meet, what to wear, and when?" Guinevere asks. Arthur and Guinevere will be in for some twists and turns in the next few chapters.
Reviews everyone, this is new for me so any comments will be greatly appreciated. I wanted to make this chapter longer this time. Up next, San Francisco.
