A.N: hello peeps here is chapter 4 (or as it is technically referred to 'my way of avoiding revision') this chapter is more Merlin based for all the other 'team Merlins' out there.
Abby was sat in her (rather cold) room, feeling a little agitated, that blonde prat's face kept popping up in her head. 'He's such an idiot, and as for that 'winning smile' of his…. Anyway he isn't even that good looking if you really looked at him. Not that I actually looked at hi-'
Knock! Knock!
Abby was thrown immediately from her thoughts as the door opened and the friendly looking boy who had shown her to her room poked his head around the door. His bright smile faltered slightly when he saw her confused glare.
"Bad timing?" he asked. "What? No, no it's fine, come in ahh?"
"Merlin"
Abby sat completely dumbfounded. "NO WAY!" He nodded in confused response.
"Is there another Merlin?" she persisted, Merlin chuckled slightly. "You know, it's not that common a name"
His smile had returned with full force, she couldn't help but smile back. "No, I suppose it isn't" they giggled together for a moment.
"Is there anything you require Miss?" he enquired.
"Please call me Abby and no I'm absolutely fine, the only thing I'm a little short on is company" she smiled pleasantly.
Merlin walked across the room and sat on an empty chair. "Well, Arthur did say to make sure you had everything you require" Abby narrowed her eyes at him, "he then said that that way you would have no excuse to bother him" he admitted, Abby giggled silently.
Abby and Merlin sat for about 3 hours talking casually in her room, she was a little confused with him, he seemed so unbelievably likeable that she considered hating him simply to curb the status quo. They spent most of the evening talking about how much of a prat Arthur was (which they both found endlessly amusing) but they also talked about Abby's home and how she managed to end up in Camelot. Merlin found her story fascinating. Time seemed to pass so quickly that before she knew it she looked out her window and saw the black velvet sky.
Merlin gasped "oh no it's really late, I should go I have to be up really early in the morning, Arthur has a training session at sunrise" he rolled his eyes as he spoke, and she joined him. He moved towards the door, Abby followed him and held the door open "Merlin could you do me a favor?" he turned to face her expectantly "next time Arthur acts like a prat could you just turn him into a toad?" a look of panic seized Merlin's face and he began to stutter "but how-? How did you-" "don't worry your secret is safe with me" she smiled at him calmly and closed to door on his flabbergasted face.
