Time to spill

Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap! I had to face UTHER! Stupid Gaius and his "I-think-uther-should-know-about-this" attitude. Who knows what he would do to me! I stood trembling outside the throne room...

Uther POV

Of all the years I've served as king, this would have to be the most hectic. Along with all the other idiotic things that stupid boy has done since he came here, he just happens to get himself cursed into an 8 year old boy. Sometimes I wonder how he ever survived until now. All the nosy courtiers were surronding me. The had so conveniently decided to see the outcome of the clumsy manservant. And the annoying French courtiers, here to experience life in Camelot. Would it kill them to speak english for once!
I remember telling Arthur about this. At first he stayed still like a statue. He didn't move or speak in a full minute before suddenly grinning like an idiot and bursting out laughing. Not the behaviour a Prince should do. He was laughing for an hour, I thought he was going to pass out in the end. Arthur ended up rolling on the floor like a phsyco maniac. Morgana looked horrified. At least she has a heart. But I can't help but feel sorry for the poor boy. Having to grow up all again. Actually, I wouldn't mind a lot. But then again I was a Prince with the finest care and luxuries.
Suddenly it went quiet as the door opened. I stared out expecting to see an average boy with unaturally large ears. But what I saw shocked me. He didn't look average at all.
He... he... he looked so cute!
I heard some of the courtiers go awww. Even I wanted to! He was approaching me with wide eyes, they were darting from side to side and gave him the look of a panic rabbit which made him seem even more adorable! His hair was ruffled slightly and he was wearing baggy clothes that dragged on the ground with a huge cloak. Somehow, it reminded me of the escaped druid that fell right through my clutches. Suddenly he tripped making everyone gasp. All the Lady courtiers rushed down to help him. Poor boy, being harrassed by a bunch of snobby women.
I have to admit, he was much more cuter that Arthur and he made girls swoon even when he was a 5 year old. And for once I could remember his name. Merlin.

Merlin POV

I gulped hard. This was scary because now all the courtiers were here and... staring at me... As the door opened there was a hushed silence. I think I heard an awww, but I was probably just making it up. My cloak dragged on the floor but then I tripped over on it. Great how embarassing... tripping in front of everyone... again. I have a sad, sad life. Abruptly all these hands tried to grab me. Several ladies were trying to grab me and help me up. All I saw were hands and voices going "Oh dear child! Are you alright?" Please Lord help me now! I got hauled up eventually and now I had to continue my walk of scaryness.
As I reached the end, Uther shifted in his seat uncomfortably. Wonder why...
He coughed before saying "So, along with all the other ridiculous, stupid, idiotic things you have done, you have managed to get cursed into an 8 year old. Well Merlin! You really have outdone yourself!"
"Erm.. yes" I replied wincing when I heard my boyish voice.
"Could he get any cuter!" I heard one lady whispering to another lady. The they continued to gossip and giggle to themselves. I blushed at the unwanted attention. The lady who started the conversation let out a squeek which made everyone stare at her since she went insane.
"So boy," Uther continued after letting the squeeking lady out of the court, "how did this happen?"
Crap, lying time and I suck at it, but I've got a lie that is at least a half truth...
"Well, when I was out in the woods a glowing thing was there, I mean a glowing object or an orb was there and then a light zapped out from it, I mean not violently, just like a light came from somewhere," I was flailing my arms everywhere trying to gesture the not violent light, "and I ended up like this..." I finished off with a hopeful grin. Not bad! At least I didn't fall to the floor and say the truth and start crying.
Uther was deliberating. I could see it in his eyes.
"Gaius!" he called, "is there anyway to turn this... bewitched boy back to his original state?"
"I've been trying my best sire to find a cure, yet so far with all my tests I have conducted, Merlin will have to stay the way he is." Gaius said much calmer than last night when he yelled at me for an hour straight! I'm telling you, how can a guy so old have that much energy to yell?
"Fine," Uther said nonchalantly, "this 6-"
How dare he call me six! I'm not that short! Alright maybe I am, but still!
"I'm eight." I interrupted cavalierly "I'm eight" Uther looked shocked. No one ever says anything against Uther. For a second I thougt he would scream at me and say to go to the dungeons, but he calmed down.
"This... 8 year old may stay here, on two conditions, that he doesn't get into trouble or accidently get cursed into a baby this time!"
Everyone roared with laughter at that joke. Bunch of suck ups...
"Sire, would you kindly spare some change for clothes for this... misfit?" Gaius asked after everyone had calmed themselves up.
"Fine! You may have 5 gold coins but thats it!" Suddenly his faced smoothed out "Ahh... Morgana! How would you like to accompany dear Merlin on a shopping trip?"
Just then Morgana moved out from the shadows
"I would be delighted to!" She said too sweetly and too nicely. Then she gave an evil grin.
Ohno... Shopping with Morgana. That'll take hours! Help!
