I repeat just for safety: I do not own Merlin or its characters

Enjoy chapter 2!


A sweaty Morgana woke up, sitting up quickly and yelling. A pair of arms circled her shoulders and brought her closer to warmth.

"Sweetheart, are you okay? What's wrong?"

She turned to the source of warmth, drawn to the voice but was too engrossed in the shock to register who it belonged to. The voice kept insisting, pushing through the fogginess of her mind until she finally registered it belonged to Leon. She turned around and immediately threw her arms around him.

"Leon! Oh, Leon! You have no idea how glad I am to see you!"

"What's wrong, Morgana? Why were you screaming? Did you have a nightmare?"

She tried replying but couldn't because she started sobbing of happiness.

"It's okay, I'm here now. Don't worry, everything is fine," he said stroking her hair.

After getting a hold of herself, she managed to say "Leon, please never leave me. Don't you dare leave me like that, you hear me?"

"No matter how badly we fight, I'll never leave you alright? Do you want me to sleep here with you?"

She nodded, "where were you sleeping?"

"I wasn't sure if you wanted to wake up next to me after the fight so I slept on the couch," he let her go to go around to the side of his bed. He brought her closer to him and spooned her. She was now on the edge of his side, staring at the floor and slowly growing more alarmed whilst Leon told her soothing words. There, on the floor, was the knife of her dreams, bloodied and surrounded by a pool of blood. She saw droplets of blood falling into the pool from the covers.

Her breathing was raged, her eyes were watery, and she felt she was shaking from head to toe.

"Honey, it's okay. The nightmare is over, don't worry your pretty head over it." Leon was holding her even more closely, caressing her arm in a soothing way. "Would you like me to fetch you the pills Gaius prescribed you?"

Morgana nodded and waited silently, staring at the knife, while Leon fetched her the pills and a glass of water. After drinking the pills, she went to sleep restlessly, her back pressed to Leon's chest, and the bloodied knife burned to her eye lids.

Mwahaha I hope you didn't saw that coming.

So what did you think?
