The next morning Merlin awoke with a smile plastered on his face because today he was going to see Arthur again but with a difference. No more secrets or lies just truth and honesty or there was on his part. If only he knew what conversation was going on in the king and queens chambers...

"Gwen, wake up. I've found a way for us to have a baby" he smiled down at his wife. Although he felt no love what so ever for her, if he was to be a good king he needed someone by his side and unfortunatly that couldn't be Merlin. As much as he wanted him it could never be and he so so wanted it to be.

"How?" she asked sitting up so her back was pressed against the headboard.

"I need you to promise not to be mad"

"Arthur, what's going on?" Gwen asked suspitiously eyeing her husbands features.

"Well, the night before our wedding I slept with another..woman and she's pregnant" Arthur confessed not entirely telling Gwen the truth. As soon as the words left Arthurs mouth Gwen eyes grew wide with shock and betrayal.

"Who is she?"

"She was just a maid who came to tidy up and I took advantage of her trying to comfort me. I'm sorry Guinevere but she doesn't want the children so w-"

"Children? Plural?" Gwen asked her jaw almost reaching the floor.

"Yes, twins" he nodded prayer her asking questions was a good thing.

"I suppose it is our only option. They are heirs and yours..."

"Does this mean you want them?"

"Yes" she answered after a pause. "Can I see her?"

"She..um...doesn't want to see you, she feels to guilty" Arthur lied swallowing his stomach which had launched into his mouth at her question.

"Oh...well can I at least know her name?"

"Merlina"

"That's a beautiful name, if one of them is a girl maybe we should name it after her?" Gwen suggested.

"Yes...well I promised I'd go see her today and everyday till the babies are born" he confessed hoping she'll be fine with it.

"Of course, let me know how she is" Gwen smiled as Arthur kissed her nose and dived towards the door. After closing the door Arthur turned on his heel towards Gaius' room. He hopes Merlin understands, he can obviously still see them but it was the ways things needed to be. The king knocked once before walking straight in and saw Gaius reading a surgeons book, he didn't dare ask. "I've come to see Merlin"

"You know where he is but before you go in, may I have another word?"

"Of course, is everything ok?" Arthur asked praying they were all alright.

"They're all fine but I'm scared of what Merlin will do when he realizes you want to raise his children with Gwen" the physician said shocking Arthur. How had he known?

"I..uh..how did you know?"

"I'm not stupid and I can see it going very badly" Gaius informed.

"There is nothing I can do, I have to have an heir and Merlin is just that"

"I know I shouldn't say this out of place but if you try to take them without Merlins consent I'll tell Gwen everything" Gaius said with a stern expression. Although Arthur was king he respected Gauis for everything he'd done for him and just nodded. Gaius gave a little bow as Arthur headed to Merlins door and walked in.

"Merlin?"

"Arthur" he beamed. The genuine happiness that was radiating off him just by seeing him made Arthurs heart break. He really didn't want to hurt him but he had to care for his kingdom.

"I promised, I'd come and see you"

"I thought you'd be busy" Merlin said with so much happiness to his tone.

"Not today, free day so what shall we do with it?" he asked kissing Merlin forehead.

"Um...we could talk and stuff" Merlin suggested lightly ghosting his fingers on Arthurs hand.

"Stuff?" he inquired with a smirk.

"Yep" he whispered adding extra emphasise on the 'p'.

"Can you even do that while your pregnant?" Arthur asked with a flirty undertone.

"I have no idea but we could..try" Merlin giggled pulling Arthur on top of him.

"We'd have to do it like this" Arthur said moving and spooning up behind Merlin. Kissing down his neck while moving his hand towards the front of his breaches and cupping his now hard erection. "Arthur.." he breathed as the blonde slid his breaches down.

"Merlin? Don't forget to talk to Arthur about what we were discussing last night" Gaius interupted making both men jump up with shock.

"Sorry" Arthur shook his head as Merlin rearranged his clothes making hiself look better.

"What's he talking about?" the blonde queried.

"Well, I was hoping when the babies were born I could move into the servant quaters in your room so I can look after them more" Merlin blushed.

"Well...um...I..I don't know if that would b-"

"What are you keeping from me Arthur? You stutter when you lie to me?"

"I was going to talk to you about something" the sorcerer shook his head as a sign to continue.

"I was wondering if you'd allow me to raise the children with Guinevere" he rushed her name out while looking at the floor not wanting to see Merlin reaction.

"Y..you want to take my children away from me and raise them with...her?" he asked with anger and hurt filling his tone.

"You'd be reinstated as my manservant obviously so you'd see them all the time" Arthur said quickly hoping he could convince Merlin.

"But they'd tret me like a second class, a servant not as their father like I am" Merlin shouted getting off the bed and placing a hand over his bump in a protective manner.

"Keep your voice down. They'd still know you" he assured.

"I don't care; no. You can't take my children and if you attempt it, I'll run home and you can't do anything there because it's not in your jurisdiction" Merlin threatened.

"You wouldn't dare" Arthur seethed stepping up so he was face to face with him.

"Try me or what if I told Gwen who I really am" he challenged not backing down to the king.

"How do you know she doesn't know?"

"I know Gwen and she'd never take me children away and how will you two cope with magical babies without my help?"

"Ahh, if you think of stepping one foot out of the gates I'll send the knights out after a sorcerer and have you thrown in the dungeon so you'll never see them" Arthur seethed knowing this was one thing Merlin would never risk.

"I think you better leave my lord" Gaius suggested with a forcefull tone that told Arthur he'd heard everything.

"Gaius.."

"You said it would be Merlins choice"

"I'm trying to do what's best for the people" Arthur said attempting to justify his actions and by this point Merlin was crying very much.

"I must say I'm very disappointed in you Arthur, I thought you'd one day be a great man and a remarkable king but it turns out your not. You expect Merlin to give up one of the most important things in his life so you don't have to tell Gwen what you did to her friend. I think you should either tell Gwen the truth and come back to see your children be born or you can leave and don't return" he asked. Arthur nodded and walked out leaving a very distraught Merlin behind. "I thought he cared about me Gaius?" he sobbed

"No, he was very selfish" he agreed sitting on the bed and pulling Merlin into a hug. After what seemed like a long time of crying Merlin let out a cry, "Merlin, what's wrong?"

"Something feels wrong" he screached clutching his stomach.

"We have to get those babies out now" Gaius paniced as he saw blood staining the bed sheets.

"What's happening?" he asked as the old man ran to get the tools..

"Arthur what is wrong?" Gwen asked as he came running in to their bedroom.

"I have something to tell you?" he panted.

"What is Merlina ok?"

"I lied...it wasn't a woman I slept with...it was Merlin as in our friend. He's a sorcerer and pregnant with my twins" he informed.

"I..where is he?" she asked

"Gaius' chambers" Gwen didn't awknowledge anything else her husband said she just left her marrital room and towards the physicians room...
