4 Months Later...

Over the past 4 months Merlin had balloned, his mother had someone make special fitting clothes to try and hide it. As if my magic it kind of worked he just looked like he was putting on a bit of weight. Well in a matter of speaking he was. Gaius and Hunith exchanged lots of letters about Merlin and his pregnancy, like when exactly Merlin felt first movement and kicking. Now Gaius was preparing to leave Camelot to check on Merlin when Arthur entered his room, "Gaius I need to speak to you"

"Of course my lord, what can I do for you?" the physican asked pushing his half packed bag to the side.

"It's Gwen"

"Is she alright?"

"She's fine but we are having trouble conceiving" Arthur sighed looking to the side and seeing the older mans bag. "Are you going somewhere?"

"Yes a friend is ill and it's serious" he lied hoping to decieve the king.

"Oh..I'm sorry. Of course you may go but when will you be back?"

"In one or two days, my lord"

"Well when you return may I come and discuss this further?" the blonde asked

"Yes of course" he nodded as the king left. He felt a strange feeling that Merlin would be the only way to resolve this, when the great dragon had said Merlins destiny was a major part in Albions future but this was more than he expected. Once he had everything packed Gaius took a horse from the stables and set off to Ealdor...

"Merlin" his mother called from the house, he loved spending time in the village.

"Yes?" he asked walking through the door

"Food" she said motioning towards the table. Looking at the bowl Merlin grimaced, it's not that he wasn't hungry but the baby was just rejecting everything he attempted at the moment.

"Why?"

"It's not just you not Merlin, you have a baby to think of" she sighed giving her son a sympathetic look.

"But it just makes me bring it up" he whined sitting at the table.

"Gaius will be here shortly, maybe he has a medicine to help with that but for now at least try"

"Fine" he gave in taking one mouthful. He did eventually eat it with a lot of encouragment from his mother. As the night began to roll in there was still no sign of Gaius and Merlin was becoming worried. "Maybe, I should go look for him" Merlin paced

"He'll be here soon, stop worrying it's not good for you" she said placing her hands on his shoulders leading him to sit at the table.

"But mum what if-"

"Hello?" said a familiar voice from the door.

"Gaius" Merlin beamed going to hug his friend. The older man hugged back happily before pulling back and telling Merlin how he'd missed him and how things weren't the same.

"Would you like some food?" Hunith asked

"If you don't mind" he smiled before turning to Merlin.

"Well my boy, you've gotten big" he grinned placing his hand onto the boys stomach.

"I know, it's amazing except I can't eat properly" he sighed with a smile

"Why?" the physician asked with a confused expression.

"I don't know, the baby just doesn't like it"

"Well, let's have a look and see what we can find out" Gaius smiled as Merlin laid on the only bed in the house before lifting up his shirt exposing his swollen abdomen. The older man pulled out an instrument that looked like a horn but he explained it was used to hear babies heartbeats. He placed it on Merlin stomach and placed his ear on the other end. He seemed to listen for a moment before furrowing his brows,

"Is everything ok?" Merlin asked becoming slightly concerned at reading the mans facial expession.

"Um..I'm not sure but I seem to be hearing two heartbeats" Gaius announced. As soon as those words left hs lips Melins eyes went so wide they looked as if they would fall out their sockets.

"T..two! As in twins" Merlin exclaimed.

"Yes, twins" he confirmed putting his insturment back in his case. He turned back to Merlin who still seemed to be in a state of shock, "Merlin? Are you alright?"

"Yer..it's just..a lot to take in.." he trailed.

"I know, but you'll still have me and your mother"

"Yep but no Arthur" he sighed.

"Look, I need to talk about that with you anyway" Gaius said with a serious tone sitting beside the boy. He took a deep breathe before saying "Gwen and Arthur are having trouble concieving a child"

"Oh...I'm sorry to hear that but I don't understand why your telling me?"

"Because if they can't have a baby, your children will be the heirs to Camelot and it'll need one"

"Your asking me to tell him aren't you?" Merlin asked finally getting what the physician was hinting at.

"I'm just saying if that is the case, I think you should but it's up to you" Merlin nodded but Gaius can tell he was very reluctant to tell Arthur. Although Merlin loved the king dearly he was still worried about Arthurs reaction to his magic and their child-well children.

"Remember you must come to Camelot in about two months, I can't keep coming here Arthur will get suspious" he smiled.

"Must I really?" he huffed.

"Yep, unless you know anyone else who can preform a ceserean I'll see you in two months" Gaius chuckled hugging Merlin before pecking his forehead. He set off back to Camelot that same night dreading talk to Arthur. What if Gwen couldn't have children? It would put so much pressure on Merlin to decide what to do not just for himself but Camelot...
