Sadly I don't own Merlin. It belongs to the BBC.
Chapter three is up. Not a very long one, but a chapter none the less. Hopefully after this chapter the chapters will be longer and I will be updating every three to four days again :D
I want to say a MASSIVE thank you to everyone who has reviewed, put this story on story alert or made it one of their favorites. You people are AMAZING. I love you all :D
Enjoy :D
Merlin burst into Morgana's room with Arthur. "Merlin. You're awake." Morgana smiled.
"I'm sorry Morgana. I'm here now." he said walking up to her and taking hold of her hand.
"What woke you up?"
"Something went south and that's all I'm saying."
Ten minutes later, a nurse came in to examine Morgana. "Looks like you're ready." the nurse said, taking the brakes off the bed. "Lets get you down to delivery."
Merlin walked alongside Morgana, never letting go of her hand. Arthur and Gwen followed behind and came to a stop when Morgana got took into a room, the door shutting behind her.
"And now we wait." Gwen said sitting down.
"And now we wait." Arthur repeated, taking a seat next to Gwen.
Arthur was pacing for the first hour and then had no choice but to sit still and watch the seconds hand on the clock on the wall tick by as Gwen fell asleep next to him, her head resting on his shoulder.
Six hours later Arthur shook Gwen awake when he saw Merlin walk up to them with the biggest smile on his face. " It's a boy. I have a son."
"Well I should think you do have a son if it's a boy." Arthur said, laughing.
Gwen stood up and hugged Merlin. "Congratulations."
"Thank you." Gwen let go of Merlin and Arthur stepped forward and gave him a brief, one armed hug, clapping him on the back when he pulled away. "Congratulations mate."
"Cheers Arthur. You want to see him?"
"Of course we do." Gwen said smiling. Merlin turned, gesturing Arthur and Gwen to follow.
Morgana was sat up in bed. Her hair was plastered to he forehead and she looked really tired, but smiled when she saw Merlin come in, followed by Arthur and Gwen. Gwen rushed over to Morgana's side and looked at the baby in Morgana's arms. "Oh he's gorgeous."
Arthur came over and smiled. "He's got a full head of hair hasn't he."
Arthur put his finger on the baby's hand where he closed it into a small fist. "What are you going to name him?" Arthur asked, his eyes not moving from the baby.
"Daniel." Merlin answered.
Arthur finally looked up from Daniel and looked at Morgana. "I sent father a message and let him know. He says that they can sort it out on their own and he is on the next flight home."
"He doesn't have to do that. I know, but he'll want to see his grandson. That was about four hours ago, he asked what hospital you was in and I told him, so he'll probably come straight here."
After twenty minutes, a nurse came in to tell her that she was to be taken up to the ward. Arthur and Gwen said that they were going to get going, let Morgana have her rest. After she got on the ward, Morgana put Daniel, who was asleep, in the cot beside her bed and smiled at Merlin who was fast asleep in the chair at the side of her bed, before falling asleep herself.
Morgana awoke sometime later and saw Uther leaning over the cot smiling down at his grandson. "Dad." Uther looked up. "I like the name. How are you feeling?"
"Better now I have had a bit of sleep."
Just then, Merlin stirred and woke up. "Uther?"
"Congratulations to you both. I promised the nurse I wouldn't stop long. I just came by to see my grandson and drop some gifts off."
Morgana sat herself up in bed and Merlin stretched, waking himself up a bit more.
Uther held up a big bunch of flowers that he had in his hand. "Flowers for the new mother." he said handing them to Morgana. "A five piece set for Daniel that includes a sleepsuit, a bib, some booties, some mits and a hat." he said taking it out of the bag he was holding, showing Morgana and Merlin. "And for the new father." Uther pulled out of his bag something that was round with a hole in the middle that looked like it needed to be blown up. "A rubber ring for you to sit on Merlin." he said, trying his hardest not to laugh. Morgana couldn't hold it in and laughed as loud as she could without waking Daniel.
Merlin turned and glared at her. "It's not funny. This is all Arthur's fault. If he didn't slip me sleeping tablets then I would have been awake with you and I wouldn't have had to go through what I did in order to wake up."
"He got you to wake up though didn't he." Uther said, defending Arthur.
"Only because Morgana threatened him with his life. And he wouldn't have had to try and wake me if he didn't get me in that state in the first place." Merlin pointed out.
Uther chuckled. "I'm going to get going, and warn Arthur that you are not happy with him." He leaned over and kissed Morgana on the forehead, tapped Merlin on the shoulder, and with one last look at his grandson, he left.
What do you think?
Chapter four will be up within a week but no later.
