Chapter 3

Hey guys. larasmith thanks for the review. You have given me some ideas. Gwen and Arthur are going to meet soon.

Hope you all enjoy the third chapter/

Gwen sat in her and Kara's favorite restaurant and grinned when she saw her best friend coming up to her. Kara was a pretty girl with long brown hair, brown eyes and fair skin. Gwen often envied her silky straight hair that was much nicer and manageable than her own unruly curls. "Hey girl. I am so tired." "Tell me about it. I could hardly concentrate today." "Figured since you called for lunch at 10." said Kara and they laughed. "So when is Mr. Lover boy coming back?" asked Kara and Gwen rolled her eyes at the nickname Kara had for Lance. Because Lance was a super nice guy, with manners and very respectful and proper, Kara thought he was fake and was waiting for the other shoe to drop. Gwen was amused at that train of thought. Yes Lance was polite…maybe too polite but that was what she liked about him. He was a total gentleman different from Mordred, bad boy, dresses in leather, pierced ears, rides motorcycles kind of guy. She was surprised he didn't have a tattoo.

"He should be coming back tomorrow. I miss him." said Gwen. Kara looked at her with a raised eyebrow. "Yes Kara I do miss him." "So you are over the dreamy knight in million dollar suit?" asked Kara and Gwen groaned. She shouldn't have told Kara this. "Yes Kara I am so over him. He just helped me out. I am with Lancelot, a total gentleman who would do the same thing to anyone stranded and whom I love and going to marry…" "Hey, hey, I heard you." said Kara and Gwen blushed. She was grateful for the waitress who came to take their order. She didn't know why she lost control like that. She cursed the day she met Arthur Pendragon. Now she was all over the place. The day went so slow for her and she was glad when it was end of day. She was grateful her client hadn't noticed she was a bit distracted. If this kept on, it could affect her work. maybe she should try and look for Arthur, see him again. Maybe then she will realize he was actually a jerk and not at all who he seemed…

As Gwen settled on her couch in her and Lance's apartment, with some food to watch some boring telly alone her doorbell rang. Gwen looked up in surprise. She was not expecting anyone. Kara was with Mordred and her brother Elyan was away doing some business with their dad. Elyan had entered the family business (the business was mechanical into casting rods and building materials). She laid her plate down and fixed her clothes. She walked to the door and peeped through the peep hole then her face broke into a grin. She nearly tore off the door as she rushed and jumped into Lancelot's arms, the flowers he had got for her falling down as his hands rushed to circle around her and steady them. Gwen showered him with kisses holding him close and Lancelot laughed. "Looks like someone is really happy to see me." "I really missed you Lance." "I can tell. I missed you too." said Lance kissing her again. "I had brought you some flowers but well…" said Lance pointing at the abandoned bunch of Lavenders, her favorite.

Gwen blushed picking them up. "I love them but I love you more." said Gwen. Lance entered their apartment and as soon as she locked the door, he took Gwen into his arms. He had missed her a lot and seeing her beautiful face, her beautiful eyes, he couldn't wait. As soon as she locked the door, he carried her gently to the bedroom where he proceeded to let her know how much he had missed her with little words.

Gwen lay in bed after Lance was asleep. She looked at his sleeping form. She loved him a lot and seeing him made her certain of it. No one else would have her heart and her love. As she drifted off to sleep, she wondered why it is she felt something was still missing?

Arthur

Arthur went to the bar with Merlin and his friends Gwaine, Percival and Leon. They had all met at different stages in life, Merlin in high school, Percival and Gwaine in college and Leon he had known since they were kids. Their parents were close. the night was filled with so much fun. "Seriously that's like the 6th girl he has danced with!" said Leon shaking his head at Gwaine who was now dancing with a little olive skinned girl. "Does that surprise you? Remember the night of our graduation party?" said Arthur and they all laughed. Gwaine had awoke with a hangover surrounded by red head triplets. He was the flirt of the group always snagging the girls.

Not that the other guys were not handsome. Leon was tall, muscular with brown long hair and blue eyes. He was charming but had a serious girlfriend Mithian who ironically dated Arthur first, Percival was really a giant nearly 6'6 feet tall and muscular but with gentleness of a boy. Girls were kind of intimidated by his massive size but he had his fair share of girls. Another thing was he was shy so he didn't approach girls. Merlyn was tall, slim but fit, a bit gangly and endearing to the ladies with his boyish charm, large ears, naughty grin and bright blue eyes. He drove the nurses crazy at the hospital he worked. Merlin was a junior doctor and worked at Alice Jullian private hospital owned by Dr Gaius. "That was a wicked party. It is still the talk of the Uni." Said Merlin and they all laughed.

"Anyone interest you mate?" asked Merlin to Arthur referring to the girls around them. Ever since he dated Mithian, he hadn't had a serious relationship and this Guinevere was the first he had shown real interest in. "Nah. Too young and giggly." said Arthur. "Maybe I should call up Viv. She is good for relieving stress." "Arthur…" said Merlin. Arthur thought Vivian as his booty call but Merlin knew Vivian liked Arthur more than that. The girl may be irritating but he didn't want her hurt in the long run. "This will be the last time I call her." "You said that last time man." "I need to get Guinevere out of my system and that is the only way." "If you say so man." said Merlin sighing.

That night Arthur did call Vivian. She came almost instantly. They had sex and when Vivian was asleep, Arthur looked at the girl. She was very beautiful with pale blonde hair, blue eyes and pale skin. Her body was lean, slim and delicate, delectable just the way he had always liked it before and not now. Her hair color was not dark like Guinevere's, was too straight and not like Guinevere's curls, her pale skin was not the light tan of Guinevere and she was not petite like Guinevere. In a few words, Guinevere had ruined him for anyone else. Maybe he should heed Merlin's advice and try and find her. maybe seeing her again will make this feeling he had go away and he could go back to his life.
