Hi my dear friends. :) Here chapter 6, I hope you'll like it and I can already warn you, trouble are coming for uour lovely Arwen ! Thank you yo my amazing beta : LunaSolTierra :)

Chapter 6 :

Guinevere woke up and smiled, noticing that once again she was in Arthur's arms. She looked up and saw he was still sleeping, which made her smile. Her parents were traveling so she had suggested to Arthur that he spend some days with her, since she was alone anyway; furthermore, the day they'll have to go back to work was coming fast, herself at Uni and him at his father's business, and they'll have much less time to see each other.

"Stop staring at me..." he breathed in a sleepy voice, a smile on his lips.

She slightly laughed and breathed.

"Have I already told you that you are a prat?"

He smiled again but tightened his hold around her.

"Once or twice. But that's why you love me."

They both tensed. And Arthur would have slapped himself. He had not meant to say that... What an idiot. Merlin was so right about him. But he relaxed when Guinevere smiled, kissed lightly his cheek, before cuddling against him.

"Probably."

He opened his eyes, a smile tugging at his lips.


"What do you want to do today?" he asked, laying a kiss on her hair before sitting across from her on the table.

"I was thinking..."

"Yes?"

"We could go swimming, with this heat..."

A smile lighted up the young man's face.

"What an excellent idea!"

"If you don't want to..."

"Hold on a second, this means I get to see you in a bikini, close to me..."

He winked at her and she blushed.

"I love it, when you blush."

"I know." she breathed. "But I don't!"

He laughed and resumed.

"If you want, we could go to my home, well, my father's I mean, there is no one else there today, apart from Morgana but I think she's seeing Merlin today so... the house will be empty and it will be more private than public swimming pool."

"You have your own swimming pool?" breathed Gwen, astonished.

"My father does."

He was uneasy; she could tell. She was starting to know him; and when he was playing with the ring his mother left him, he wasn't feeling comfortable. She stood up then and linked her arms around his broad shoulders, laying her chin in the crook of his shoulder.

"I'd love that."

He stroked tenderly her hand, leaning against her.


While Arthur was in the bathroom, Guinevere took out her phone, checking her parents hadn't tried to reach her. She sighed, seeing she had an unknown call and listened to the message.

Gwen,

I know you haven't forgotten me. You can't have. Not after everything we've been through, you and I. Do you remember the first time I told you I loved you? Well, I still love you. And I know you do, too. Come join me today, at the park where we met, at 3 p.m.

You should remember how happy you made your father, by being with me. And how disappointed he is now.

She closed her phone, pale. When Arthur left the bathroom and saw her so pale, he slightly panicked, expecting the worst, and ran by her side.

"Guinevere? Guinevere are you ok?"

She nodded, slowly.

"Are you sure?"

Gwen nodded her head and smiled slightly to him, stroking her chest.

"Yes I'm fine, thank you Arthur."


She closed the bathroom door behind her and leant on it, a tear rolling down her cheek. She did not know what to do. She had spent two years with Lancelot and... and her father liked him and all of the memories came rushing back and... and she was so lost because on the other hand, there was Arthur. Amazing, smart, funny and tender Arthur. And Gwen knew she was already very fond of him. The young woman let herself fall on the ground and allow sobs to take her, trying to be as quiet as she could.


Arthur looked up, frowning. He was sure he had heard... Yes. Sobs. Worried, he got up and walked toward the door, before knocking gently.

'Guinevere? Guinevere are you alright?"

The young woman jumped and hurried to wipe her eyes.

"Yes. Yes I'm fine."

"Can I come in?"

She hesitated then opened the door. When she saw his blue eyes full of worry, she melted again and resumed crying.

"Oh Guinevere..." he breathed before bringing her to him.

The young woman buried her face in Arthur's neck and he stroked her back tenderly.

"Whatever it is, it's going to be fine." he breathed. "It's going to be fine."

They stayed a little while, until her sobs calmed down. He receded a little form her and wiped her tears.

"Are you feeling better?"

She nodded.

"Do you want to talk about it?"

"Not now." she whispered and he nodded, taking her hand before leading her toward the bed and sitting next to her.

"Guinevere." he started slowly, plunging his gorgeous blue eyes in hers. "I know that we did not really talk about it, and technically, you could go and see other men but..." he had made a face saying that and she felt the urge to soothe him, a primitive urge; she then laid his hand against her heart, which brought a small smile on Arthur's lips. "What I mean is... It is... Are we... I'd like very much for us to..." he sighed and ran a hand through his hair. "It actually rang better in my mind."

Guinevere smiled, seeing where he wanted to lead the conversation, before she stared at him for a few seconds which looked like years for Arthur. Finally, when she leant in and kissed his lips, it was her heart which was talking, and it was it that talked when she answered.

"Yes Arthur, I want to be your girlfriend."

She saw the bright smile lighting up his face and he brought her to him, until she was on his lap so he can kiss her again and again. Wouldn't he being ever tired of her? It was seriously starting to worry him, the more he had, the more he craved. What if she was the good one?

"Are you ready to go?"

She nodded and laid a slight kiss at the corner of his mouth, before getting up.

"Go ahead, I'll join you." she breathed. "I've got to go to the loo."

He smiled and left the room while Gwen took her out phone and dialed.

Lancelot,

I'm sorry but I won't be at your appointment. You have to move on. We both have to move on.

I'm sorry but it is just the way it has to be.

And she left; joined Arthur, who was waiting for her in his car, his aviator sunglasses on him. She smiled and climbed in.

"What?" he asked.

"My boyfriend is hot."

He laughed this beautiful laugh of his, before stroke her cheek.

"And my girlfriend is gorgeous."

She leant in against his hand.


Arthur was already in the water when she arrived, in her gold bikini, and his mouth opened despite of himself. He swallowed with some difficulty and she smiled, laying a hand on her hips.

"Have you got a problem, Arthur?"

"What? A problem? What problem?" she came in the water and swim closer to him. "No... I can't see any problem."

Guinevere laughed and tied her arms around his neck, throwing her head back and his lips took their chance to glue themselves there, which cut her laugh and turned it into a small gasp.

"Arthur..." she breathed, a hand stroking his nape.

"Do you have any idea," he whispered, kissing his way along her neck. "Of the effects that bikini has on me?" he kissed her passionately.

"Until now, I didn't." Gwen giggled, breathless after their kiss.

"Gold... looks like you have nothing on you and all is melting on your skin..." his eyes darkened. "You should definitively wear that more often."

She laughed and laid her forehead against his.

"If it does this to you every time, you can count on me."

He laughed and kissed her again, hands on her hips, bringing her closer to him, grunting slightly.

"Arthur?" called a female voice. "Arthur where are you? I saw your car out front."

The young man sighed and against his will, separated from Guinevere.

"In the pool, Morgana!" he answered before taking Gwen's hand. "Come, I'll introduce you to my sister."

Anxious all of a sudden, Gwen nodded and followed him. They were getting out of the pool when a gorgeous young woman came, all dark hair and emerald eyes.

"Arthur!" she smiled keeping her distance, then turned toward her. "And you must be..."

"Gwen." smiled the woman, holding out a hand that the woman shook, smiling.

"Enchanted to finally meet you, Arthur talks about you a lot..."

"Morgana..." sighed Arthur, blushing slightly, which made Gwen laugh.

"You don't look alike at all..." breathed Gwen despite herself and she blushed at her turn. Nervousness was making her say stupid things.

However, Morgana smiled and shrugged.

"Well, I guess that's because we don't have the same mother, and Arthur looks like his."

"Oh..."

"I look more like our father." she resumed, taking a false sorry voice, which made laugh every one.

"Merlin isn't with you by any chance?" asked Arthur.

"Nope. We meet later."

Arthur rolled his eyes, which earned him a slap on the head.

"Ouch!"

"Don't roll your eyes at me, Arthur Pendragon!"

"You two are disgusting."

A teasing light lighted up his sister's eyes,

"Oh no dear, do you want me to tell you really disgusting things..."

"Morgana!" screamed Arthur, horrified while Gwen burst out laughing. "Come, laugh at me you two... I know just how to get my revenge anyway..." he breathed before he took his sister by the arm and threw her in the pool.

"Arthur, no!" she just had time to shout before falling in the water.

Arthur then turned toward Guinevere; a hand on the stomach so much was she laughing. When she saw her boyfriend stare, she started back away.

"Arthur, no..."

"What?" he said in an innocent voice.

"Arthur don't you dare..."

At this moment he ran after her and she laughed, before he finally caught her. He took her in his arms in a more chivalrous manner and she tied her hand around his neck, while Morgana kept on threatening Arthur for what he had just done.

"Arthur," started Guinevere, "If you care about me, you won't do that."

"Oh but I do care about you." he answered, smiling, walking closer to the pool.

"Don't do that."

They were facing the water now.

"Why?"

She stroked his cheek tenderly, but he saw the teasing light in her honey eyes,

"Because baby, if I go down, you go down with me."

He laughed, kissed her and then let her go.

"ARTHUR!"

The blond man laughed but suddenly felt himself fall, and just had time to hear his sister laugh.


"I had an excellent day, Arthur." smiled Guinevere, as they were returning to her home, hand in hand.

"So did I. I'm glad you met my little sister."

"You two are pretty close, aren't you?"

"Very." he resumed, following her in the house.

She smiled, tenderized.

"As you already know." he resumed while she was settling on the couch, bringing her to him so she can cuddle against his chest. "As you already know, my father isn't the tender and loving kind so when he was too hard on me, I always had Morgana with me. She has always been there for me; cheering me up when I was low."

Guinevere laid a slight kiss on his boyfriend neck.

"You've got me now. I'm here for you Arthur."

He turned his head, a tender smile on his lips, before he kissed her as tenderly.

"Thank you." he plunged his eyes in hers and seemed to study her for a few seconds then before he swallowed. "Guinevere."

"Yes, Arthur?"

"Guinevere..."

Her heart started to pound. Was he going to say the big words? It was now a little over a month that they were seeing each other and if Guinevere was honest with herself, she may feel the same thing, even if she was terrified about it.

"Guinevere." he took a deep breath, "I-"

At this moment, someone opened the front door and the young people jumped before Gwen opened wide eyes.

"Dad? Mum? What are you doing here? You weren't supposed to be home until tomorrow night?"

Embarrassed, they got up and feeling Arthur's nervousness, Gwen took his hand and stroked his thumb. Her father frowned while her mother seemed to study them, before her eyes fell on their linked hands, and a discrete smile tugged at her lips.

"Who are you?" said the man in a rather cold voice.

"Dad." resumed Gwen, in a voice just as cold.

"I am Arthur, sir." answered the young man, offering his hand.

"Dad, Arthur is my boyfriend."

The man didn't squeeze the hand and tears invested Guinevere's eyes. Seeing it, her mother walked forward and squeezed the offered hand.

"I'm enchanted to meet you, Arthur. I am Louise, Guinevere's mother."

The young man, who had paled from the welcome, gave her a thankful smile, hesitating,

"Glad to meet you, madam."

"Thank you, mum." breathed the young woman before turned toward her father. "I can't believe you just did that to me." she whispered. "Who do you think you are?" before she took Arthur's hand again, and headed toward the exit.

"Gwen..." called her father but no answer came, and when he turned toward his wife for some support, he saw her reprobating look and sighed. "He is not good for her."

"You're an idiot, Tom." only answered his wife, before leaving the room.
