TITLE: A Little Trip
SUMMARY: Merlin is visiting his mother.


Hunith smiled at her son as he helped her to make dinner. She was so glad that he decided to visit her. He rarely gets a chance to after all.

"So, what prompted this trip anyway?" asked Hunith.

"Tomorrow is the anniversary of Arthur's mother's death" said Merlin.

"Oh, that is so sad" said Hunith.

"Yep, made me want to visit you" smiled Merlin.

"I'm glad, so how is life in Camelot?" asked Hunith as she set the table.

"Protecting the prat, training the knights, helping Gaius, cleaning up after the prat, riddle full dragon, honestly that Dragon never runs out of riddles, and missing you of course" smiled Merlin as he placed the food onto the table.

"Of course" smiled Hunith.

"So, how's Ealdor?" asked Merlin.

"Farming, farming, farming and more farming. Oh, and remember Maggie?" asked Hunith.

"Was she the one who spat in my hair when we were ten?" asked Merlin.

"Yes, anyway she had a boy last week, called him Artie, I believe. After that handsome prince, is what she said" said Hunith.

"Why does every girl think Arthur's handsome, I don't see it" said Merlin.

"Your not a woman" replied Hunith.

"Do you think my master is handsome Mother?" teased Merlin.

Hunith smiled.

"He's pleasant on the eyes" she muttered. She laughed when Merlin pulled a face.

"Anyway, is dinner ready?" asked Hunith as she attempted to change the subject.

"Yep" said Merlin as he took a seat. Hunith opened her door and yelled:

"Arthur, Gwaine, Percival, Lancelot, Elyan and Leon, Dinner's Ready!" and she sat down.

The prince and Knights came and took a seat around the small table. They dug in.

"Your right, visiting your mother was a great idea" smiled Arthur as he ate a tomato.
