Anyways thankyou all for the reviews, they were amazing and really made my day :D ... I'm sorry for not updating earlier :D xx
Hope you like it.
Arthur parked in Morgana's drive way. "We're here." He said to Merlin.
They took of there seat belts and got out of the car and then grabbed there luggage and walked till Morgana's front door.
Arthur knocked on the door, after two attempts someone opened the door with anything but a welcoming smile. The lady was wearing a white tunic with black leggings. Her black hair pushed into a bun while locks of hair falling out of the bun.
"Morgana, am I not pleased to see you." Arthur said cheerfully while he looked at her.
"Ask you're self that question." She retorted. He gaze turned to Merlin. "Merlin, right?"
"Yes, how did you know?"
"Uther told me." She said politely. "It's nice to meet..."
"We can complete all the formalities when we go inside." Arthur interrupted.
Morgana quietly sighed and opened the door wider and she gave them way in.
Both of the officers walked in to the living room while Morgana shut the door.
"I hope you don't mind us staying here." Merlin said with a smile.
"She doesn't." Arthur immediately said as he placed his suitcase on the carpet.
Morgana folded her arms as she walked further in to the room "Like I have a choice, Uther's words are like a command."
"I agree with you." Arthur said thinking the reason why he came here mostly was because Uthur commanded him.
"Can I get you anything?"
Arthur managed a smile "Coke would be great." He said as he sat on the sofa.
"I was talking to Merlin." She said with widened eyes and a teasing smile.
Merlin put his bag on the sofa and sat down next to it "Ummm... water would be fine."
"Water? Don't you want something else." Morgana asked with a polite tone.
Merlin cleared his throat "Orange juice please."
"Hmmm that's more like it." Morgana said with a wide smile. She looked at Arthur "Arthur would you like coke?"
"Yes." He said; surprised that she offered it.
"Oh sorry there's none." She said unapologetically while she put on an innocent face.
"Then why did you ask?" He asked her with daring eyes.
"Just being nice." Morgana said as she made her way to the kitchen.
"Fine, put me something else to drink."
"Arthur, I'm not you're slave get up and put something in yourself." She said while she was in the kitchen.
Arthur sighed heavily and made his way to the kitchen. "I expected a better welcoming."
"You know me Arthur, I only give good welcoming to people who deserve it." Morgana said with a smirk.
"Whatever." Arthur mumbled as he opened the fridge door.
Merlin was sitting quietly when he heard someone knocking on the door.
Morgana called out to Merlin from the kitchen "Merlin, could you open the door, it must be Gwen."
"Yes of course." Merlin got up from the sofa and went to the front door and opened it. He spotted a beautiful girl with curly black hair and a charming smile. "Hey, Morgana's in the kitchen" He said as he pointed towards the kitchen.
Gwen nodded and walked in. "Did you come with Arthur?"
"Yes."
She nodded again as she put out her hand "Hey, my name's Guinevere, most people call me Gwen. And you are? Sorry I don't remember your name."
Merlin shook her hand "My name's Merlin and most people call me..." He paused to think "Merlin."
Gwen let out a little chuckle "Nice to meet you Merlin."
"You too." He said while Gwen smiled at him. He closed the front door and walked behind Gwen to the living room.
"Guinevere." Arthur said who just walked out on the kitchen with a glass of Pepsi in his hand.
"Arthur. How are you?" She said with an admirable smile.
"Good, you?"
"Great."
"Here you are Merlin." Morgana said as she gave him a glass of orange juice.
"Thanks." Merlin smiled as he took a sip and sat down on the sofa.
Morgana smiled at him, she thought he looked more friendlier and was a more appreciative person compared to Arthur. Her eyes turned to Gwen "Want anything Gwen?"
"Nope." Gwen said with a smile while she took a seat on the sofa opposite Merlin.
Morgana also sat on the sofa next to Gwen "So, I heard both of you are coming to the same university as us then, studying the same course." She asked her eyes moving between Arthur and Merlin.
"You heard right Morgana." Arthur said while he sat on the sofa next to Merlin.
"But why? You're a police officer."
"And? I want to have a different career, me and Merlin both do."
Morgana looked at them suspiciously. "So you remembered this after 5 months since university has begun and after you both have become police officers."
Arthur took a sip of his Pepsi "Don't worry about it Morgana, if the head of the university doesn't then mind then why do you?" He asked hoping to end all her questions."And as i said , me and Merlin want a different career."
Morgana rolled here eyes. "I'm suprised Uther doesn't mind."
There was an awkward silence before Gwen spoke "Do you both like fashion?"
"No." Merlin and Arthur replied at the same time.
"Girls are more interested in it." Arthur said as carelessly and Merlin nodded with agreement. They took a sip of there drink.
"Then why do you want to study fashion designing?" Morgana asked curiously.
Merlin and Arthur both chocked on there drinks.
Gwen looked at them concerningly "Oh gosh , are you alright?"
Merlin never answered Gwen's concerned question, he looked at Morgana "We are?" He asked.
Morgana looked at them surprisingly "Yes, Uther said that you both are going to be studying the same course as us which is fashion designing."
Merlin's mouth was wide open "We're going to be studying fashion designing." He said as if he couldn't believe it. "You got to be kidding."
Gwen and Morgana looked at them confused.
"Of...of course we are." Arthur quickly said while he glared at Merlin. His eyes turned to Morgana who looked at them very suspiciously. "We were joking, we are interesting in fashion designing, it's very, very...what's the word Merlin." Arthur said looking at Merlin for some help.
Merlin gasped "B…b...boring." The word slipped out his mouth and he quickly bit his tongue.
Arthur faked a laugh "Merlin, don't you mean brilliant?" He said emphasising on the last word.
Merlin instantly agreed "Yes, that's what I meant."
"So why was Merlin so surprised that he was going to study fashion designing?" Morgana questioned; she knew something fishy was going on.
Arthur took a second to think of an answer before he spoke "He's too embarrassed to admit it, aren't you Merlin?" He said as he turned to Merlin.
"Err...i..."
"It's ok, no need to feel embarrassed. I'll..." Arthur's voice got stuck in his throat as Morgana stood up and walked to him.
"I can always tell when you are lying." She said with assuredly.
Arthur was quiet for sometime "I'm not." He said as he lost himself in her sharp green eyes.
"You can't lie to me. I know you more than anyone."
"I'm not." He repeated.
"I believe you." Morgana said sarcastically as she turned away and Arthur quietly sighed in relief even though he knew she didn't believe him and he was unsure how long he can lie to her.
"Can you show us our room?" Merlin asked quickly , changing the topic.
Morgana smiled at him "Follow me." she said as she walked out of the room.
Merlin and Arthur grabbed there luggage and walked after her with Gwen behind them. They walked up the stairs and followed Morgana into a room.
"This is your room." Morgana said proudly as she stood inside a wide room, with a blue glittery wallpaper, two single beds with side tables, a wardrobe, a table with a chair next to it.
"Who's? Mine or Merlin's." Arthur said as he walked in to the room. He couldn't help but admit that the room did look presentable.
"Both."
Arthur turned around and looked at her horrified.
"It does have two beds." She carried on.
"Me and Merlin , stay in the same room, are you crazy?"
Morgana folded her arms "No."
"Then..."
"You know this is a three bed room house Arthur , i have one room, Gwen has one room and this is the last room." She sighed.
Gwen nodded in agreement.
Arthur pointed at Morgana and Gwen "Can't you two share?" he asked stubbornly.
"Look Arthur, if you want to stay you can, if not…" Morgana said as she shrugged her shoulders.
"Fine." Arthur said as he threw his suitcase on one of the beds "Like I have a choice."
Morgana just unfolded her arms and looked at Merlin "I do sympathise with you Merlin, you have to sleep with Arthur." She said in disgust.
"Shut up Morgana." Arthur said without any force in his voice.
Morgana pulled out her tongue at Arthur to which he gave her an evil look. She looked at Merlin who was smiling and her and returned the smile and then left the room with Gwen.
Merlin put his bag on the floor. "This is a nice room." He said with a big smile after Morgana and Gwen left.
"Shut up Merlin." Arthur said as he unzipped his suitcase.
"Stop being moody."
"I'm not."
Merlin rolled his eyes, a cheeky smile appeared on his lips as he thought of something funny "Imagine if this was a double bed."
Arthur paused his unpacking; he knew what Merlin was going to say.
"Then me and you would have to sleep togeth..." Merlin couldn't finish the last word because he had a jumper thrown on his face.
"Keep you imaginations to yourself Merlin and pass me my jumper back."
Merlin wanted to throw the jumper on the floor and stamp on it a couple of times but winding up Arthur never had it's benefits.
"Arthur, Arthur." Merlin shook Arthur's arm, "Get up or we're going to be late."
"Get lost Merlin." Arthur said sleepily.
"Morgana said we should be up by 8 or otherwise they are going to leave without us."
"Hmm…"
"Arthur." Merlin said as he started shaking his arm faster and quicker.
Arthur pushed his arms away "Shut up will you."
The water jug on the side table caught Merlin's attention "I'm giving you a last warning."
"Get lost."
Merlin grabbed the jug full of water "Fine."
"Goo..." Arthur couldn't finish the word out , he instantly woke up feeling the splash of water on his face.
"Merlin." He shouted as he shivered.
Merlin grinned."I knew you would listen to me."
"Do that every again and you would regret the day you were born."
Merlin curtsied sarcastically "Yes Sire."
Arthur angrily pushed the duvet off him and stormed out of the room.
When Arthur was ready, him and Merlin walked downstairs. As they stepped in the living room , they spotted Morgana and Gwen who were sitting on the table.
"Morning. Breakfast is made." Gwen said with a smile while indicating the toats and the teapot.
"I hope you had a nice sleep." Morgana said with a friendly smile.
Merlin smiled "Yes it was..."
Arthur cut of his sentence mid way as he stormed to the kitchen "When are we leaving?" He questioned.
Morgana shook her head lightly regarding Arthur's rude interruption. "15 minutes." She turned to look at Merlin "Come and grab something to eat Merlin." she said with a smile.
Arthur walked out of the kitchen with a glass and orange juice, he eyed Merlin evilly as he walked to Morgana and Gwen and sat on the table. He couldn't help but notice how nice Morgana was being to Merlin. Unconsciously he tightened his grasp on the glass.
Arthur, Morgana, Gwen and Merlin walked into the classroom.
Arthur noticed that apart from Merlin and him, there was only one other boy in there class who was sitting down. Him and Merlin walked to the front to see the teacher who was looking at his book while Morgana and Gwen went to there seats.
"Good Morning." Merlin said politely.
Geoffrey turned his gaze from the book to Merlin and Arthur "Morning. You are?"
"I'm Merlin and this is Arthur." Merlin said as he pointed to Arthur.
"Oh, the new boys."
"Yes."
"You're studying the course a bit late." Geoffrey said with a glare.
Merlin and Arthur took a glance each other.
Arthur looked at Geoffrey and tried to speak politely "Well all that matters is that we got accepted."
Geoffrey raised an eyebrow "It seems strange."
"It shouldn't." Arthur said as an rude remark and his lips formed a small smirk when the teacher became quiet.
"Grab a seat." Geoffrey said, changing the topic.
Merin looked around not knowing where to sit.
"Come sit here." Gwen said nicely.
Merlin smiled and walked up to Gwen and Morgana while Arthur followed behind.
"This is going to be fun."Merlin whispered to Arthur after they took a seat.
"It better be fun or otherwise i would be sleep in no time." Arthur retorted with a yawn.
