A Lonely September
Chapter Two
The next day Arthur ran as fast as his legs would allow to Guais' rooms. Almost tripping over his bootlaces in his haste Damn it! A Prince who can't even tie his own laces. And Merlin thinks I don't really need him? Pft. He mused in annoyance as he reached Guais' door.
Knocking once he walked in.
The scene that he was met with melted his heart. Merlin was propped up in bed grinning like the idiot he was.
"Arthur?" Merlin asked, his smile broadening
"Hello Merlin" Arthur replied trying to keep the idiotic grin on his face to a 'Oh-good-my-servant-isn't-dead' minimum, he failed miserably and gave up. His grin matching Merlin's in idiocy.
"CmereArtha" Guais and Arthur rolled their eyes at Merlin's adorably childlike grasp of the English Language.
"What Merlin?" Arthur sighed as he stood beside Merlin
Merlin gave him a 'I'm-not-that-tall' look and Arthur knelt so he was more at Merlin's current height.
"You're a Royal prat Sire"
"Thanks Merlin. Is that all?"
"Not quite Sire" With that, Merlin leant forward and smacked him round the side of the head
"OW! Merlin…"
Merlin looked up at him, the look in his eyes both worrying him and melting his heart
"I love you too Arthur"
And I didn't mean to fall in love, but I did
And you didn't mean to love me back but I know you did
Don't say you didn't love me back 'cause you know you did
No, you didn't mean to love me back
But you did
