Moments 21-30
21. Anger
"Guinevere," Arthur began, speaking to her for the first time since he'd rescued her, "So I said you'd gained a little weight… and that was no excuse to run off on your own like that!"
22. Caution
"This is getting old, " Arthur told Merlin and Sir Leon who were in a fit of manic laughter after discovering that their 50th fake ransom note to Arthur still compelled him to run around the castle to make sure Gwen was really alright.
23. Champion
"I win," Arthur whispered triumphantly after she caught Gwen, hiding behind a curtain with a strawberry half-way to her lips, "I knew you couldn't stay away."
24. Child
When Gwydre wrapped his little fingers around Arthur's thumb, only Gwen's voice could bring him out of the trance.
25. Language
The greatest conversations they had were silent: a smile, a glance, a kiss could express much more than words ever could.
26. Legacy
"For the last time, Arthur, Galahad kissed me on the cheek!" Gwen exclaimed to a brooding Arthur, "I can't believe you're jealous of an 8-year-old!"
27. Love
She'd always been overly cautious of it, never believed she would find it and yet here she was feeling it unconditionally for a certain annoyingly handsome prince.
28. Pain
"I love you, but I don't deserve this, Guinevere," Arthur whispered, pressing his lips to her ear. "I can't be with you while you're still in love with Lancelot."
29. Promise
"Gwen, " he said, pressing a soft kiss to her pulsing temple, "I won't let any harm come to her; I'll bring Morgana back to you."
30. Soft
"It's okay," Arthur said eying Gwen's broken vase before knelling down to hug his weeping child, "I'll tell your mother it was my fault."
This took me a bit longer than usual because of school, but I hope you like it! I'll update as soon as I can. Oh, and in case you didn't know, Galehut is Lancelot's son in some legends. Hope that clears up some confusion.
