"I..um..like I said I don't know" Gwen shifted knowing she was prolonging the inevitable. Morgana would eventually get it out of her, she could be very persuasive when she needed to be.
"Gwen, I thought we were friends. Yet your lying to me" she protested with a look of anger mixed with upset.
"I am your friend" Gwen said in an offended tone.
"Then tell me" Morgana shot back. Her and Gwen had been friends for years she couldn't believe she was keeping secrets from her especially involving Merlin! Morgana thought of Merlin as a brother and he didn't trust her which upset her the most.
"I can't..Merlin made me promise" she sighed looking at her feet.
"I adore that boy, there's nothing I would do for him"
"If I tell you, you must promise not to tell Arthur which is Merlins worse fear"
"Of course, why would I tell that prick?" Morgana asked looking slightly taken aback by her friend thinking that. Gwen took a breath before she said in a low tone, "He's pregnant"
"Pregnant? But what's that got to do with Arthur?" she asked not quite grasping what had been said. After a minute or two of silence the penny dropped, "It's Arthur's isn't it?"
"Yes" Gwen nodded meeting her friends look.
"Oh..where is Merlin today? Please tell me he's not getting rid of it?" she begged.
"No he went a few days ago but he couldn't do it. Today is his first doctors appointment" Gwen informed her friends.
"Okay. I'm confused though, why didn't he want me to know?" Morgana asked trying to grasp what had been happening to her friend over the past few weeks.
"He was scared you would tell Arthur. He doesn't want him to know. Ever" the coloured girl said.
"I would never do that if he didn't want me too!" she exclaimed feeling very upset at her friends distrust.
"I said that but he said he didn't want to risk it"
"Can I come home with you and see him?" Morgana asked tentatively.
"I can't promise he'll be happy but of course, I'm glad I have another girl to baby gossip about" she beamed at her friend.
"He will. I can't believe I'm going to be an aunt" Morgana grinned excitedly. "I can't believe it! I never thought Arthur would have children but now...it's going to be amazing. I'm going to spoil it rotton" she smiled before asking "What time is his appointment?"
"About 1, but he should be home around 2ish" Gwen nodded thinking of how happy her friend was at the thought of helping Merlin.
"Well, it's almost one now so if we do a bit of shopping before heading back we should be about right" Morgana smiled collecting her things and heading for the door. Gwen scurried to catch up with Morgana, "Your very happy about this"
"Of course I am" she replied as she linked her arm in her friends before dragging her into the nearest shop..
"Merlin Emrys?" the nurse shouted from the doctors room. He stood up and headed in, feeling a mixture of nervous and excited. "Hello, would you like to lay on the bed?" the lady doctor smiled as she picked up what seemed to be a chart. He did as she asked him to, getting as comfortable as possible before she slid her chair over and sat beside him.
"Soo, can you just lift up your shirt so we can get going" she smiled as she pulled over the machine. Once he'd exposed his stomach and she squirted on the gel she began scanning it. The doctor smiled warmly before showing Merlin where his baby was on the screen, it was no bigger than a peanut.
"Is this one your first?" she inquired.
"Yes" he answered smiling like an idiot at the monitor.
"Everything is going fine, there's a heartbeat and it's looking good"
"Thank you"
"It's my job. Your midwife will pop round to yours in three days and then monthly up till your 6 months. From then till your 8 months it will be fortnightly and from 8 months plus it will be weekly checks. She will be delivering the baby and will check every in every so often after it's born"
"Thank you so much" he smiled as she rubbed off the gel and Merlin hopped off the bed. She handed him two photos and a card with his next appointment on. The whole bus ride back to his dorm he was so happy, he couldn't stop looking at the pictures and grinning. Turns out Lance was right from now on he would be fine, he just knew it.
"Gwen, look what I have" he beamed walking into her room. He stopped when he caught sight of Morgana, "Oh..hi" Merlin smiled.
"Hello, Merlin" she answered. There was an awkward silence for a moment before Morgana broke it. "I'm just going to ask, did you get your sonagram photo?"
Merlins eyes widen to a comical degree as he looked between the two women, "You told her?" he asked Gwen his voice filled with betrayal.
"I..I-"
"Don't blame Gwen I made her tell me, I don't understand why you didn't trust me enough not to tell Arthur. I'd never do that to you" she assured going over and pulling him into a hug which he happilyy reciprocated. "I'm so sorry Morgana"
"It's fine" she smiled pulling out of the hug to make eye contact. "You could make it up to me by showing me the picture" she asked wickedly.
"Of course" he smirked pulling them out and handing one to each girl. They grabbed them with gentle haste and stared at them for a long moment before make 'aww' noises and glancing at each other.
"Do you mind if I keep one?" Morgana asked
"No, I don't need two" he smiled.
"Ahh, we're going to be related" she beamed going to hug him again after putting the sonagram in her bag. For a while they sat, talked and cooed about babies-well Merlins baby. When they finally stopped all the questions Merlin was utterly worn out, he knew that Gwen would be excited but this was ridiculous. Just as they all sat down and began to watch 'being human' Morgana phone rang. It was Arthur. "Hello? Arthur?"
"Morgana! Where are you? I've been to yours I need some advice"
"What? Why?"
"Vivian thinks she's pregnant" Morganas eyes widened and she glanced at Merlin who was next to her and who'd obviously heard.
"Well your should be more careful, what exactly do you want me to do?" she asked getting quite angry.
"I can't be a dad, that I'm not that guy" he said in a desparate tone.
"What are you being fucking serious?" she yelled standing and begining to pace.
"Yes I'm being serious! I don't want to ever be a fucking dad" Arthur yelled down the phone so loudly Merlin and Gwen heard. Morgana just went silent and looked straight at Merlin who had eyes brimming with tears.
"Your an asshole! This isn't about you! Poor Arthur just the thought of responsibility send you running for cover! Why don't you think of Vivian instead you selfish moron, she's the one who's putting her life on hold because you were to horny to think of using a condom! Argh! I hate what you've become" she snarled hanging up on her brother before wrapping her arm around Merlins shoulders. "It's ok, sshh. He's a dick"
"I know but I wish he was my dick" he confessed sobbing into her shirt.
"Oh Merlin, you still love him don't you?" Gwen sighed rubbing Merlins back in a soothing gesture.
"Yes, now more than ever. We're having a baby together, I know he doesn't know but it's still happening" he cried.
"Do you want him to know?" Morgana asked cautiously not wanting to upset him.
"Yes, I want to tell him and him to be happy and tell me he loves me but it'll never happen"
"It's ok Merlin, you've got me and Gwen and you'll always have us" she reassured him pulling him into an even tighter embrace. "I know" he nodded pulling away.
"I'm going to go to my dorm now, I'll see you both later" Merlin said before leaving. As soon as his footsteps disappeared down the corridor the two girls turned to each other and sighed.
"I love him so much and seeing him like this is just...hard" Gwen said.
"I know and Arthur is just a twat but Merlin's right. It doesn't matter that he doesn't know about it the fact is Arthur will be a father but whether he can be a dad is a whole other matter" Morgana added with a tired sigh. Eventually she left and headed to hers and Leons apartment, she asked Merlin if she could tell him and he didn't have any prolems with it.
"I'm home" she shouted as she placed her keys in the bowl near the door.
"Leon?" Morgana asked when she heard the sound of two men talking from the kitchen. To her shock there in her kitchen was he fiance and brother talking over a beer, "What are you doing here?"
"Me and Vivian had a little row after she found out she wasn't pregnant" Arthur explained simply.
"I thought that was a good thing?" she asked still confused to why he was in her flat.
"I thought so too. Apparently not, so she kicked me out and I was hoping I could stay here for a few days?"
"Nope, now get out" she snapped heading to the fridge and pulling out a water.
"Morgana can I talk to you for a second?" Leon asked pulling his fiancee into the living room.
"Why are you being like this? He's your brother and family is important" he said and she just rolled her eyes.
"Tell that to Merlin"
"What's that suppose to mean?" he asked cocking an eyebrow.
"He's pregnant with Arthurs baby" she whispered in a way Leon could barely hear.
"That's what's been wrong with him?"
"Yes and Arthur said he doesn't want to be a dad it upset him. Why do I have to be family to him when he wouldn't do the same for his own child?"
"He said that? To Merlin?" Leon gasped
"No, he said it to me about Vivian over the phone and Merlin over heard. Merlin doesn't want to tell him" she sighed looking over her shoulder to see if her brother was listening.
"Well then he doesn't reall have a say in whether he's involved with Merlins baby then" Leon pointed out.
"Fine he can stay but only a few days. If not I'll kick him out with you" she smiled before heading back to talk to Arthur.
"You can stay on the couch for a few days but what ever you eat you replace and don't bring your relationship dramas back here or your gone. Got it?" she asked sharply.
"Yes" he gulped not entirely certain what he'd done to upset her so much.
"Why are you so angry with me?" the blonde asked as she reached the door.
"If only you knew" Morgana whispered walking out and into her room...
