Morgana snuck towards Gwen's room, checking around every corner. She didn't want to run into anyone. It seemed as though Merlin knew everybody in the castle. Several servants had pat her on the shoulder and given her pitying looks as she rushed around on errands for Arthur. All of the knight's stopped her and made jokes, roughly smacking her on the back when she didn't laugh. "It's a joke, Merlin." All of them had said. She just gave them smiles and continued on her way. She didn't care anymore that she wasn't really acting like Merlin. She hated his body and wanted to be done with the deed.
As she stepped around the corner she saw Arthur coming from the other direction. Just her luck.
"Merlin, what are you doing near Gwen's rooms. Shouldn't you be polishing me armor?"
"I already did that. I was just coming to visit Gwen. See how she was doing."
"Why, is she unwell?"
"No. Just as a friend."
"I see. Well, you can come back later, can't you?" Arthur frowned as she hesitated.
"Yes. I suppose I can." She spun around on her heel and walked back the way she came, anger in her eyes.
Soon, she had to do it soon.
