'...' thinking
Lancelot was moping around the roundtable waiting for Ceres and Gawain to come down. He had promised Morgan and as much as he would like to brake taht promises he couldn't. Gawain walked in with Ceres on his arm, she looked really happy and Lancelot knew that Morgan was right, thow he would never tell her that.
"Ceres, Gawain I just wanted to say that I give you my blessing." Ceres smiled and huged her brother.
"Thank you so much." Lancelot pated Gawain on the back
"Take care of her." Gawain nodded and and sat down with Ceres besid him. Morgan walked up to Lancelot and placed her hand in his.
"You did the right thing, there going to be very happy." he nodded his head and sat down is his chair, waiting for diner to be searved. Morgan laughed and sat down on her brothers left while Guinever sat of his right.
"How's everything going?" Arthur asked, refering to the situation beteween Lancelot, Ceres, and Gawain.
"Lancelot gave them his permission tonight." Arthur nodded and stood up, waiting for everbody to quit down.
"I'm proud to inform that Lady Ceres and sir Gawain are ingaged, and will be wed in a yers time." cheeres were erupted from all the knights and the ladys, it was truly a time for celerbrating.
Morgan POV
Ceres, Guinever, Vanora, and I were all siting in the roundtable room talking about the rest of the plans for Guinever and Arthur's wedding.
"Looks like well be doing this again in a couple of months." I said stareing at Ceres, her cheeks turned a light shade of pink and smiled wide. All the women began to laugh but stoped as soon as the doors opened. Arthur, Lancelot, Gawain, Bors, and Galahad all walked in talking about somethin but stoped as soon as the girls became very quit.
"What's so funny?" Arthur asked raseing an eyebrow. They all tried not to laugh and just shook there heads.
"Nothing at all big brother." I finally spoke when I knew that I wouldn't start laughing. Arthur came up behind Guinever and wispered something in her ear that caused her to smile.
"Ladys you can finish this on your own yes." she stood up and ran out of the room with Arthur on her tale. Everybody laughed and watched them leave. Gawain came up behind Ceres and kissed her cheek.
"Why don't we ever do that?" he wispered in her ear. Ceres playfully hit him in the shoulder.
"Come Gawain, you promised you would go rideing with me today." she stood up and took his offered arm and walked out to the stables.
"I must go check on my children." Vanora stood up and draged Bors along with her. Galahad had decided to go rideing with Ceres and Gawain, which left Lancelot and Morgan.
"So what are you doing today princess." Lancelot asked. I glared at him before responding.
" I still have four knights to find wifes for." Lancelot nodded his head.
"And what about your self?" I raised a curious eyebrow at him. "Are you not interisted in marring your self?"
"If I ever find the wright man yes. What about you, are you not happy about marring your self."
"Yes, but I dought i'll ever meet the right person."
"So are you saying that all those women you beded, you never found the right one?"
"Never the one I truly love." I looked into his eyes and saw longing. 'for me' she wondered.
"I need to go." I was almost out of the room when he grabed my arms and brought his lips to mine. His lips were so soft, I kissed him back and wraped my arms around his neck. ' what am I doing, I can't do this, I can't fall in love.' I pulled away, the hurt in his eyes made wish that he had never done it. "I can't do this, if i ever lost you it would kill me." tears began to fall, he wiped them away with his fingers and kissed my forehead before walking away. I sat down in a chair and put my face in my hands and cried.
Lancelot POV
' I love her so much, she's grown into a beautiful woman, I don't want anyother woman but her, what am I going to do?' I walked down to the main hall to find Arthur going throw some papers.
"What are these?" I asked siting next to him.
"Just some maps." I nodded my head and decided to get his opion, after all Morgan was his sister.
"Arthur, I think that i'm in love with Morgan." he looked up from his papers to look at me, a smile crossed his face.
"Does she love you?"
"I don't know, she kissed me but then she pulled away and looked even more confused. All I know is that if she set's me up to marry someone eles, I'll never be happy." I walked out to leve all my problems in a pint of Ale.
Arthur POV
'Looks like I may have to play matchmaker for those two, i'll get the knights Guin, Ceres, and Vanora to help me.' I left in search of my reinforcements.
