Part 10 What Are Friends For?

(Author's Note: FINAL PART! Please review!)

I did get a few days worth of revenge for the ridiculous hat, as George had to serve Arthur for those days. I healed fast as always and was soon back to working for Arthur.

My first day back Arthur was working the knights through their training. I sat to one side, silently thanking Giaus for telling Arthur I couldn't help with training for at least another week and polishing Arthur's second set of armor. I looked up as Gwaine, who had been relatively quiet lately, waved. Then he and Arthur began to spar. I winced; Gwaine was giving it his all. Arthur would be quite colorfully bruised by the end of the day.

When they finished both were sweating and Arthur looked tired, which was hard to do. Gwaine wandered over to me sticking his sword in the ground.

"I see Princess has got you back to work." I grinned and nodded. The bruise on my face was almost completely gone.

"Yep. I've never seen you work so hard at training." I commented. Gwaine grinned and sat down next to me.

"Yeah well he deserved it, and you're too nice to do anything about it." He ruffled my hair.

"So you're doing this for me?" I grinned rolling my eyes and swatting at his hand.

"Of course! What are friends for?" I gave up trying to make him stop ruffling my hair and grinned.

"Thanks Gwaine."

"Sir Gwaine! You're up for mace practice!" Arthur called. With one last ruffle of my hair, just so it stuck up in every direction, he stood and pulled his sword out of the ground.

"Don't beat up the prat too much." I grinned then winced at the sound of a mace hitting armor. I was right, Arthur was very colorfully bruised by the end of training and complained loudly when Gwaine dragged me off for a drink.

I had the most fun I'd had in a long time and woke up with the headache of my life. But things were much cheerier after that. Between Gwaine, Lancelot and the other knights things went back to normal insanely quickly.

Within a week everything was back to normal, well as normal as it ever was in Camelot.
