Sadly I don't own Merlin. It belongs to the BBC. I don't own 'she's the man' either. (Sigh)

Chapter nine is up.

Thank you for the reviews. I love you all. And thank you to all of those that have put this story as their favorite or on story alert. I love you all as well :D

Enjoy :D


Morgana walked into her room and saw Merlin sat on his bed holding tissues on his nose. Morgana sat on the edge of her bed and looked at him. "What happened to you?"

"I got into a fight with Alvarr."

"My sisters ex?"

"Yeah. We got into a fight because he saw me and Morgana kissing."

"I know. You're a good kisser."

Merlin frowned. "What?"

"Um. That's what Morgana said. It's all she's been on about really. You. She didn't mention any fight though."

"Sorry about kissing Morgana though."

"Don't need to apologise. If you want to kiss her, then you kiss her. Alvarr didn't really treat her right. I know you would."

"Uh, thanks." Merlin laid back on his bed and started spinning his football on his finger.


The next morning Morgana met Merlin out on the field and saw that he made two rows with balls. When Morgana got closer. Merlin looked up. "Lets get training."

For the next half hour, Morgana and Merlin where jogging between the balls, dodging them. After that, Merlin was trying to teach Morgana how to swing her leg up to really boot the ball. Morgana stood and watched as Merlin did it and booted the ball into the goal that was in front of them. "Right. Now you try."

Morgana tried but stumbled a bit causing the ball to go into the trees. Unknown to Merlin and Morgana, Cedric was in the trees with his camera spying on Morgana. He was that busy looking at his camera to see if what he had so far would work, that he didn't see the football coming which hit him straight in the face, causing him to fall over and land on his camera.

"Never mind Mordred, we'll get that ball later. Come on, lets keep practising, you're a lot better now then when we first started." A little while later, Merlin looked at his watch. "I've got to get going. You coming?"

"No. I'm going to stay here and practise some more."

"Alright Mordred, see you later." Merlin made his way off the field and saw coach Pendragon standing there holding the football that Morgana kicked. "Hey coach."

"Merlin. Mordred's determined isn't he?"

"Determined is putting it lightly coach. If you come out here tonight about half nine, I guarantee you that Mordred is here. For the past week I've been in this field at six in the morning helping him."

"You. Up at six Merlin."

"I don't believe it either coach, but he's a good guy. If he's not out here practising, he's talking to me about new moves."

Uther nodded, not taking his eyes of Morgana. "That'll be all Merlin."

"Coach." Merlin said before walking away.


Morgana was in the gym, lifting weights with Merlin. Well, watching Merlin lift weights whilst pretending to do the same.

"Hey Mordred. How's Morgana?"

"She's alright. Why?"

"I was just wondering if she wanted to have dinner with me tonight."

"I'd love to." Morgana realised she opened her mouth again without thinking. "Is what she would say if you asked her." she said quickly.

"Le Fay." Morgana looked up to see Uther enter the gym. He held up a football top with the schools logo on it and turned it round to show Morgana that her last name was on the back. "You've made the team. You'll be playing against Mercia." he gave Morgana the top and left the gym.

Merlin stood up and clapped Morgana. "Hey congratulations mate. You did it."

"Thanks to you."


Vivian was walking slowly on the treadmill watching Morgana mess about with Merlin. "Isn't he cute?" she asked her friend who was on the treadmill next to her.

"Who Merlin? Oh yeah."

"No, not Merlin. Mordred."

"Really?"

"Yeah. But he said that I'm not his type."

"What? That's stupid. You're everyone's type."

"Not Mordred's." Vivian sighed.

"Okay. Here's what you need to do. Make him jealous."

"Jealous?"

"Yeah. If you pretend to like someone else, he will start to notice you and start to like you that way. Trust me."

"Okay." Vivian stopped her treadmill. "I'll do it now."

"Who are you going to use?"

"Merlin." she said before walking away.


"So. You should ring Morgana and ask her."

"Yeah. I think I will. And you don't mind me dating your sister?"

"No. I just want to see my sister happy, and I know that she'll be happy with you."

"Thanks Mordred." Merlin picked his phone up and was about to dial when Vivian approached them both. "Hey Merlin. I've been watching you lift weights. You're really strong."

"Um, Merlin wasn't you about to do something?" Morgana asked.

"No." he said smiling at Vivian.

"So, Merlin, do you want to have dinner tonight, in that little cafe across the road?"

"Yeah."

"Great. I'll see you there. Seven o'clock alright?"

"Yeah."

"Alright. I'll see you later."

When Vivian left, Merlin turned and faced Morgana. "Yes. You did it. I got a date with Vivian."

"I thought that you liked Morgana."

"Come on Mordred. You're a guy. What would you do if the hottest girl in the school asked you out."

"I'd say no after kissing someone else then later finding out that I've got their hopes up. Don't mess my sister about Merlin."

"I'm not Mordred. It was a kiss."

"Yeah. A kiss that made you fall for her and her for you." Morgana sighed. "Wait right there."


Morgana caught up with Vivian. "Vivian, can I talk to you for a minute."

"Of course you can Mordred. What's up?"

"It's about your date with Merlin. I don't think that you two are well suited after all."

"Why not?" He'll only hurt you. He's not really interested in you. He likes someone else and he hasn't got the courage to ask her out so he's with you until he finds the courage to do so."

"I don't mind."

Morgana narrowed her eyes. I could so slap you right now. She thought.

"Look. If you're that worried, why don't you come along tonight. We could double date."

"A double date requires four people Vivian."

Vivian looked around them and saw Freya. "Hey Freya. Double date tonight, with me and Merlin, but Mordred hasn't got a date. You want to be his date?"

Freya beamed. "Are you kidding? I'm there."

"There you go. Problem solved." Vivian walked away and Morgana put her face in her heads then looked at Vivian walking away. Forget slapping you. I could fucking drop you. She thought angrily.
