A/N- hello all just a little more than a week and its Christmas!
Gwaine and his companions had been riding for a little less than a day and he was almost certain that he was lost. The one thing he hated about the woods was that everything looked the same! After a while the travelers came across a fork in the road. Gwaine stopped his horse and held up a hand for the two other knights behind him to stop. He wasn't sure where to go, he couldn't remember if Meriweather was to the left or the right.
"Is something wrong?" One of the knights asked.
Gwaine twisted in his saddle, "Does anybody know how to get to Meriweather?" He grinned sheepishly.
The two younger knights looked at each other. "Um I think you take a right sir," one of them answered.
"Right," he smiled. "I was going to guess that." Kicking his horse foreword he took the right side of the fork.
"I just still don't get why we have to go on this trip." Sir Adam complained. "Merlin's probably just…..dawdling in some tavern somewhere. Maybe he even met a nice girl and is having some Christmas fun." He suggested.
"Yeah," Sir Gordon chimed in. "We had better be home in time for the Christmas ball." He added.
Gwaine rolled his eyes, "Merlin you had better be dyeing or something." He muttered in aggravation. "Don't worry boys," he spoke up. "As soon as we find Merlin we can turn right back around and be home in time for you two lovers to dance with all the pretty ladies you want."
A/N- hope you liked it, tell me what you thought
