Summary: Modern Merlin and Morgana. They go ice skating and Merlin may have just preferred to be on the sidelines rather than on the ice.
She had gone on about it for weeks. They would pass it every time they walked home from work and she would always say that they should go. Merlin wasn't the best with co-ordination. He was clumsy and he usually tripped over thin air. How was he going to fair on an ice rink?
Merlin would have just preferred to have watched her. She was amazing on the ice. He took an apprehensive step forward, clinging onto the side with both hands. She had already gone around a few times, showing off with turns and other moves that he could only wish to be able to do. She had eventually noticed that he wasn't getting on as well as her and came around to offer her assistance. She held out her hands to him. He argued that he would just pull her over and that she should just enjoy it. Morgana had just laughed and took his hands into hers. She talked him through it, staking backwards like a professional. She mentioned that they used to live down the road to an ice rink and her dad used to take her all the time. They had fallen over a couple of times, Merlin apologised every time. She just laughed shook her head at him.
Afterwards they had gone to a local pizza restaurant that the visited all the time. Merlin was still apologizing for pulling her over so often. They could both feel bruises starting to form but it was all part of the fun of it all. By the time they were making their way home, it had started to snow. It was just light flurry, nothing that was going to stay too long. It started to cling to their coats and hair. He may have been no good at it but it had been a good day. It was the perfect end to it. He thought about them getting in and having hot chocolate before trying to find something to watch on tv. He placed her arm around her as they walked, thinking that he was the luckiest guy in the world to have her as his girlfriend.
