Arthur insisted opening the door and before Merlin had time to react or think the king was staring directly at him. Or to be more accurate the protruding bump that was to obvious to try and cover up now. It was over.
"Arthur" he gasped.
"Oh my god" the blonde stated not even blinking or trying to take his eyes off it...
"Arthur, let me explain" Merlin begged but Arthur was already leaving ignoring the protests from anyone.
"I'll go after Arthur, you make sure Merlin doesn't get too upset" Gaius said before heading after the king. He knew from what Merlin had told him from when they saved the village from bandits Arthur had like the small lake that the wizzard used to play in as a child. According to the dark haired male the blonde found it calming and Gaius just hoped that was where he was. He cut through a section of forest which led to a clearing with a lake and sure enough Arthur was sat looking at the sun reflecting the water. Without a word the older man sat next to him and suprisingly Arthur was the first to speak, "How is this possible?"
"Sorcery"
"Someone cast a spell in Camelot?" Arthur paniced looking at the physician and realising that wasn't what he ment.
"Merlin" he breathed returning his gaze to the water.
"You must understand Merlin is special, he was born like it and was unable to control it-any of it" Gaius rushed making sure the king knew all the facts and didn't make any rush and harsh decisions.
"And the child?"
"There is two and no Merlin didn't ask for it. It just happened. It has before with a sorcerer and it was because of love" he revealed.
"How can I believe the love is real Gaius?" Arthur inquired turning his head and meeting his gaze.
"How can you even think that Merlin would do that?"
"I don't want to but all this is too much"
"Try being Merlin, in a few weeks I'm going to cut into his stomach to get your children and he's scared" the old man informed him.
"Why didn't he tell me?"
"He was scared you'd kill him and the children" he answered simply.
"He thought I'd do that to him? Really?"
"Yes, it's what he really believed"
"That's ridiculous" Arthur snapped putting his head into his hands and inhaling deeply.
"You just walked away from him when you found out, it wasn't the best reaction"
"It was..shock that's all. Not disgust or anything like that"
"He doesn't know that" Gaius reminded him.
"I should go back and speak with him" Arthur concluded standing and offering a hand to his old friend.
"Thank you sire" he smiled "I knew one day you'd find love and be happy. I'm just happy I got to see it"
"But Guinevere.."
"That's something you must decide on you own sire, I cannot help with that" he said with a sorrowful look.
"There isn't anything I can do she's my wife" Arthur sighed as they began walking back to Huniths house.
"Your right sire. I know you do love Merlin but please don't mislead him and give him false hope" Arthur didn't know how to respond to this so he just nodded as they arrived at the door. Hunith was sat at he table just nodded at the pair, Gaius went to sit with her while Arthur went to Merlin. He gave the door a knock before walking in, Merlin was just sat with his legs off the right side of the bed with his head in this hand like Arthur had done.
"Merlin?" he asked cauitously advancing towards the bed.
"Arthur" he sobbed looking up and meeting the familiar orbs. The king sat beside him with about four inches between them. An awkward silence invaded the room both to scared and nervous to be the first to speak. But eventually Arthur took the plunge "I'm sorry for running off, it was just a shock"
"I get it, I was on the descovery end at one point" Merlin nodded feeling happier that Arthur had returned.
"I was so so worried about you" Arthur confessed but kept his gaze on the floor.
"Did Gaius tell you?" Merlin asked full of fear incase Arthur banished him from Camelot.
"Yes and I still love you" he sniggered.
"What?" Merin asked curious to what the prince found so amusing.
"If my father was alive to see this; I married an infertile woman, slept with my manservant- multiple times- it turns out he's a sorcerer and pregnant with the only heir" he explained in little bursts of chuckles.
"Yep that's his worst nightmare" Merlin stated before joining in with the laughing.
"Tell me about it but you know what I don't give a shit. I love you" Arthur said looking up and seeing Merlin smile just reminded him of all the times the had together and he wanted nothing more than to kiss him.
"Can I ask you something Merlin?" Arthur inquired turning so he could look directly at Merlin.
"Yes.." he gulped getting nervous as the blonde shifted.
"Can I kiss you" he asked eyes darkened with lust as they stayed glued to Merlins lips.
"Yes" he whispered. No sooner had the words left his lips that Arthurs lips were upon his, it felt familiar and warm and when the king snaked his tongue along Merlins bottom lip for enterance the sorcerer welcomed it like an old friend. After a hot make out session Arthur pulled back and rested his forehead on Merlins, "Come back to Camelot with me?"
"I have to come anyway so I can have the babies so I might aswell come back earlier" he smirked with so many sexual tones written into it. Just as their lips were about to reconnect Gaius came in, "I just thought if we were leaving today we should go now and we can make it by tomorrow early hours"
"Your right and Merlin is coming with us" Arthur smiled
"Are you sure Merlin?"
"I have to anyway so what's a little earlier going to hurt?" he smiled shrugging his shoulders.
"True and I can monitor you better" the older man agreed. Merlin said his goodbyes to his mother before climbing on the horse he came on and set off with the other two. They stopped once to water the horses but it was just a quiet straight forward ride back to Camelot.
Finally the gates came into view and Merlin knew he was home. Judging by the babies movement so did they. "You must stay in Gaius' quaters but I'll come and see you as often as I can" Arthur promised giving Merlin a peck on the lips before running to his room. Gaius was very happy Merlin was smiling and was back but he doesn't think the king understood what he ment by don't lead Merlin on; by the sight he just witnessed he was thinking the king was doing just that...
A/N: Soo what did you all think? Let me know...
