Gwen listened at the door to Merlin's bedroom. Gaius was away on his rounds, so she didn't had to worry that she would be seen while spying on her friend.

'Aithusa, why did come here?' She heard the warm voice of Merlin ask.

'I came for you mommy! You never came to see me and uncle Kilgharrah kept telling me I had to patient, but I didn't want to be, so I sneaked out without him knowing and-.'

'Kilgharrah doesn't know you're here.' The dragonlord interrupted with a panicked voice. 'Oh no, I have to go to him before he does something stupid.'

Aithusa sounded like he was about to cry. 'I'm so sorry mommy, I didn't want to cause any trouble for you. I'm sorry.'

'It's okay Aithusa, it's okay, I'm so sorry that I didn't came to see you.'

Gwen smiled and walked closer to the door, not noticing the bottle until it was to late. The glass bottle fell down and broke into a thousand pieces. Gwen could only stare in shock at the broken glass on the floor and she heard Merlin walking towards the door.

The door opened and Merlin and Gwen stared into each other eyes. It was the little white dragon that broke the silence. 'Oh, hello Gwen.' Merlin blinked at the creature and then gasped in shock.

'Gwen... I... no... please... don't tell Arthur.' He stared with wide shocked and scared eyes at her and she couldn't help but pity him. She hugged him and she could feel him clearly relaxing in response. 'You're... okay with it?'

She nodded. 'Don't worry I'm not going to tell Arthur, but Merlin.' He looked confused at her smile. 'Mommy, really?'

Merlin started laughing. 'Yeah, he decided it.' She looked at the little dragon who was nodding. 'Because mommy is mommy!'

The two humans smiled at each other. 'He's really cute.'

'I know, but he will grow up to be a big intimidating dragon.' He finished these words and suddenly he gasped. 'Kilgharrah!'

'Who is Kilgharrah?'

'I'm sorry Gwen, but could you look after him, I have to make sure that Kilgharrah does nothing stupid and I can't take him outside now.'

'Okay I will look after him, but you have to explain everything to me when you're back.'

Merlin let out a deep sigh and nodded. 'I promise.' He grabbed his jacked and walked out of the room leaving the queen and the dragon behind.

'I caused mommy a lot of trouble, didn't I?'

A smile appeared on the queen's face. 'Yes, you did.'

The sadness and guilt left the eyes of the dragon and they were replaced by joy. 'But that's my mommy, isn't mommy incredible? I like my mommy.' Gwen could only smile from the words of the little dragon.

Merlin ran towards the clearing close by Camelot and called for the larger dragon. I wasn't long before he could hear the sound of wings in the darkness and he landed in front of the warlock. The dragon stared at his dragonlord with a face that clearly showed guilt. 'I guess you lost something?'

Kilgharrah growled. 'So he is with you. I should have known.'

'Yes he is with me, luckily Gwen isn't as stupid as to run to Arthur when she found out.'

'So the queen found out, then she also knows about you magic?'

'I think so, but I'm not sure. I probably have to tell her everything.' He sighed. 'I will try to get Aithusa out of Camelot this evening.'

The golden dragon laughed and shook his head. 'It's probably better if he stays with you for awhile. A dragon needs to be with his dragonlord.'

'What!' The warlock looked shocked at the dragon. 'I can't... but... I.'

'Merlin you know it's the best thing to do.' Was the last the dragon said, before turning around and flying away. Merlin looked shocked while the dragon disappeared from his sight, before he returned to Camelot.

Aithusa jumped up and down on Merlin's bed while Gwen said next to him on the bed. She couldn't help it but smile, she was in love with the little white dragon.

The white dragon was finally exhausted and decided to lay down on the queen's lap. 'I like you.' He whispered to her.

She patted him. 'I like you too.'

'Do you like my mommy?' He suddenly asked, but before she could answer he asked her. 'And do the other people here like him?'

Gwen smiled. 'Yes, I like him, he's my best friend and I know that almost everyone else here in Camelot also likes him a lot.'

The dragon nodded. 'I'm glad, I want mommy to be happy.' He looked up and stared at her with an nervous expression. 'You're not going to tell the king, right?'

'No, of course not, but I want to ask you something.' The dragon looked her in the eyes and nodded. 'Merlin, your mommy, why is he here in Camelot when he had magic?'

Aithusa started laughing, or at least she thought that the little dragon did that, it was a low and strange sound. 'Uncle Kilgharrah told me that it's mommy's destiny together with Arthur to create Albion and mommy protects Arthur with his magic.'

Gwen frowned. 'They have a destiny together.' The little dragon nodded enthusiastic. 'You told me back in my room that he is a powerful warlock.'

The dragon nodded again. 'Mommy is really strong, but he would never hurt Camelot, because you would be stupid to destroy your own home.' Gwen felt a warm feeling rising in her heart hearing that Merlin really cared for Camelot, not that she thought otherwise, but still how Arthur could act sometimes.

'Gwen.' She smiled at the dragon who looked rather nervous at her. 'Can I... can I call you auntie, because I like you and I never had a auntie before.'

The queen looked rather amused at the white dragon on her lap. 'Of course you can call me that.'

A smile spread over the little dragon's lips. 'Thank you, I'm really tired now, so I'm going to sleep, okay?' She nodded, but the dragon didn't see, he had already closed his eyes and was asleep.

Merlin walked inside his room and smiled seeing Aithusa sleeping on Gwen's lap. She lifted her finger and placed it on her lips. 'He's sleeping.' She whispered and he nodded.

But the two humans were not silent enough, the little dragon yawned and opened his eyes. His eyes grew big seeing his mommy in the room and jumped in the warlock's arms. 'Mommy!'

'Hello Aithusa.' Merlin hugged the white dragon with a wide smile on his face.

'Come sit next to me.' Gwen said to Merlin and he did what she asked.

'I guess you want know everything.' She nodded and he sighed, but somehow he was relieved that he could finally tell someones else and he trusted the queen with his secret. 'I'm born with magic and came to Camelot to learn to control it.'

'I didn't know you could be born with magic.'

Merlin grinned. 'Yeah, there aren't many people that are born with it, but I was.' The warlock averted his eyes to afraid to see anger in his friend's face when he told her the rest of the story. 'I have always tried to help Arthur and Camelot, but I have also made mistakes, I... I released the great dragon... I'm sorry.'

Suddenly he felt two arms around him and he looked shocked up. 'It's okay Merlin, you only tried to do what you thought was right.' He nodded. 'We're lucky that Arthur killed the dragon.' Now Merlin looked nervously at his queen. 'What?'

'Arthur didn't kill the dragon.' Gwen blinked in surprise. 'After Balinor died his powers as a dragonlord were past down to his... his son.'

Gwen looked at him, already knowing the answer on the question that had formed in her head so she sighed. 'Oh, Merlin...'

'I'm his son.' She pulled him into another hug. 'It was the first time that I met him and he just... he just died.' Tears started flowing down his face and Gwen pulled him even closer.

'Don't cry mommy.' Aithusa said and there were also tears in the little dragon's eyes. 'Because then I'm also going to cry and I don't want you to be sad and... and...'

'It's okay.' Gwen tried to calm the little dragon.

The last dragonlord smiled through his tears. 'Aithusa, I won't cry anymore.' He took the little dragon in his arms and turned back to Gwen, he told her his secrets, the times he had saved Arthur, the good things he did, but also the wrong owns.

Gwen never interrupted him, she comforted him when he wanted to cry, never became angry when he told her his mistakes and he felt happy, happy to finally tell someone the secrets he had for years.

'So the dragon... Kilgharrah said that Aithusa should stay in Camelot for a while. How are you going to keep him a secret?'

He sighed. 'I will keep him in my room, he is small enough and...' He looked with hopeful eyes at Gwen. 'Could you maybe help me?' Both the dragon and his dragonlord looked at her with begging eyes.

She laughed and took the white dragon in her arms. 'Of course I will help you. I'm in love with this little one here.' She placed a kiss on the little dragon's head and he laughed.

'Thank you Gwen.'

They talked for a while longer, before he heard the doors to Gaius's chambers open. 'Merlin, I'm back!' The physician shouted and the two humans froze.

'He knows right?' The queen whispered to her friend.

Merlin nodded and opened his door. 'Welcome back Gaius... hmm... I kind of have a surprise for you.'

The older man lifted his eyebrow. 'What is it?'

'I will show you upstairs.' Gaius frowned, but walked to his ward's room.

The man walked into the room and smiled at Gwen. 'Hello Gwen, but I still don't kn...' His mouth fell open when he saw the little dragon in the queen's arms. '...Merlin?'

'That's Aithusa and yes Gwen knows.'

The older man blinked. 'She knows about your ma...'

'Yes I know about Merlin's magic.' Gwen said with a smile.

Gaius gasped and Merlin seeing what happened quickly helped the old man to sit on the boy's bed.

Aithusa who was really happy meeting a new person jumped of Gwen's lap and on Gaius's lap. 'Hello, I'm Aithusa.'

Gaius took a deep breath and calmed himself down. 'Hello Aithusa, my name is Gaius, but what are you doing here?' The last he said half frowning.

'Oh, I missed mommy and decided to find him, because he never comes to see me and now uncle Kilgharrah says I can stay with mommy for awhile, so I'm really happy.' Gaius looked at Merlin when he heard the little dragon calling his ward a 'mommy', but Merlin only shrugged in reaction.

'I guess he can stay here for now, but make sure no one else see you.' The last saying to the white dragon who was currently jumping up and down the old man's lap.

'I promise that I will be careful...' He looked hopeful up at the man. 'Mommy is mommy and Gwen is auntie, so... can I call you grandpa?'

The physician started to laugh and patted the little dragon on the head. 'Of course you can call me that.' The small eyes of the white creature started shining and he jumped in Gaius's arms.

Only a few moments later the door of Gaius chambers opened again and a very familiar voice shouted. 'Merlin!'

The queen and the warlock looked shocked at each other, before a smile spread over their faces. The queen nodded that he should go, before the servant walked to the door and shouted. 'I'm coming!' And the warlock went to serve his master.

Gwen and Merlin walked past the training field, deeply discussing something. Arthur glared at them... and no he wasn't jealous, kings didn't get jealous, but... but still he didn't like it. They had been acting strange for more then a week now and the king just didn't know why.

'What's wrong princess?' Gwaine shouted when Arthur was distracted again with the sight of Merlin and Gwen going inside again. The knight had also noticed their little friend and queen. 'Are you jealous that Merlin and Gwen are spending so much time together lately?'

The king turned around and growled to the knight. 'Of course not!'

Gwaine grinned. 'Yeah, we can see you're not jealous, princess.'

At this point the other knights also came into the conversation. Elyan stared at both his friends. 'Who is jealous on who?'

A laugh left Gwaine's lips. 'Our princess here is jealous of Merlin, our little mate spend to much time with our queen from the princess's opinion.'

'I. Am. Not. Jealous!' Arthur half screamed.

'Of course not princess.' Gwaine said while blinking at the others.

The king let out a scream of frustration and jumped on the knight. Both man fell on the ground and immediately they started to wrestle with each other.

The others ignored them and Percival turned to Leon. 'So what's the exact relationship between Merlin and Gwen?'

'They have been close almost immediately after Merlin came to Camelot.' The older knight answered. 'But what Gwaine said is true, they have spend a lot of time together the last week, more then normal.'

Elyan's expression turned serious and without thinking he said. 'Do you think they're having an affair?'

All of the knights looked at Elyan, including the wrestling knight and the king. Arthur quickly stood up and grabbed the knight's shoulders. 'What are you saying, Gwen would never cheat on me!'

Elyan looked shocked at his king, but it was Gwaine that said to Arthur. 'Come on Arthur, it's not like you're the perfect husband or something like that.'

Arthur turned his head towards Gwaine and the knight couldn't help but shrink under the king's glare. He let go of Elyan's shoulders and stormed off towards the castle.

All the knights glared at Gwaine and Leon smacked him on the head. 'Great job, idiot. Let's go before Arthur does something stupid.' The others nodded and ran after Arthur.

Update: Thanks to Lilli1000 who told me my mistake in this chapter I rewrote that part. I should still tell everyone, Arthur is a king in this story, not a prince.

But I'm still going to let Gwaine call Arthur a princess, because I just like that :P.
