Hey!
I know I am now updating this story again! I hope you like it. Oh and I am sort of skipping the whole process of Guinevere having the baby...I am not good at writing that sort of thing and it also grosses me out a little...so yeah...I hope you are ok with it. Anyways she just had the child and is now resting while everyone is waiting outside for her...
Anna and Amhar watched wide eyed as their father paced back and fourth in front of them, mumbling to himself. Guinevere had gone into labor about an hour ago and now they were just waiting for the news...whether good or bad. "Daddy will mommy be alright?" Anna asked quietly wondering how much longer they will have to wait.
"I hope so Princess" Arthur whispered to her as he continued to pace thinking about the conversation he had with his father previously before Guinevere had started giving birth...
"How is...Gwen?" Uther asked hesitantly as Arthur headed into his fathers chambers to tell his father the news of what he and Guinevere had decided. Arthur sighed heavily and shifted from foot to foot wondering what to say as he also noticed the Lady Vivian come into the room behind him with her arms crossed and her face formed into a pout. "Ah Vivian what can we do for you?" his father asked as if the Lady Vivian came first.
Arthur gave his father a glare before turning around to Vivian, "My Lady if you will excuse us my father and I need to discuss something in private. He will be with you in a minute" Arthur said as calmly as he could muster walking over and about to lead her out of the room.
"But My Love" Vivian protested turning in his arms and wrapping hers around his muscular frame looking up at his face. "I am going to be your future Queen someday so I should be here when you and your father have these private conversations" she whispered batting her eyes up at him.
"Vivian please understand, I have a wife who I love very much and kids, an unborn child even that I love with all my heart. They are my family and my life, nothing will make me leave them" Arthur said firmly removing her hands from around his waist and stepping away from her.
"But Arthur you said I was your love and you would do anything for me" Vivian whimpered her eyes looking hurt.
"That was 6 years ago Vivian. Look I am sorry but I have a life now, you need to let go of me."
"But my love, my hearts delight, I can't get you out of my mind" she whined.
"I am sorry Vivian but now if you will excuse me I have to-" SLAP! Arthur trailed off feeling her hand against his cheeks she glared at him. Her eyes then grew soft and she stepped forward kissing his numb cheek and stroked his face. "I am sorry my Love but don't worry I will get you back. I will do whatever it takes for us to be together. I promise" she whispered kissing his cheek again before nodding to Uther and storming out of the room.
Arthur sighed and glanced at his father while rubbing his cheek wondering what on earth Vivian was thinking. "Arthur...maybe Vivian is right. What if you are enchanted and the witch-"
"Father enough. Stop it, Guinevere and I are in love and there is no magic. No enchantment and no spell. We are in love, grasp that. Not another word about it or so help me I will take Guinevere the kids and leave Camelot" Arthur snapped agitated at his fathers accusations yet again.
"Very well Arthur" Uther said non enthusiastically.
"Look father I know you don't support my marriage but please give Guinevere a chance for my sake and for my kids sake please!"
"FINE! But only for the kids, she will have to make a good impression on me before I allow you to become one in my kingdo-"
"Father! She is my wife, we already have kids together and are already officially married with a certificate. I love her and she loves me, you will accept us end of story" Arthur snapped again, losing his patience with his father. "Anyways...I didn't come here to yell at you father. I have had to...Guinevere and I had to make a hard decision just now and I think I should tell you. Her child, our unborn child needs to be born a week early or Guinevere...she won't-survive" Arthur whispered sadly choking on the last word.
"But...if the child comes early it could...could die" Uther protested unable to believe that Arthur would put his own child at risk like that.
"No...I can't leave Amhar and Anna without a mother, I won't. We think its the best way because they both have a better chance this way. For both of them to survive."
Uther sighed thinking of both pros and cons of the situation. The woman could live but then Arthur would lose another heir to the throne however he also knew that Arthur couldn't raise three children on his own. Uther knew what that felt like, he could barely take care of one child let alone three. "Very well Arthur, you do what you need to do. I know what it is like to lose a wife so I am sure you will make the right decision" Uther said with understanding patting Arthur on the back before heading back to his desk to do more paper work...
Arthur nodded to himself thinking that he had made the right decision and was glad he could make his father understand. "Daddy! Daddy!" Arthur stopped pacing and glanced down back to reality as Ann and Amhar were both on their feet looking up behind him with wide hopeful eyes. Frowning Arthur turned around and saw Morgana standing at the doorway a smile on her face.
"Congratulations Arthur" she said with a smile. Arthur's eyes widened with happiness and nervousness as Morgana stepped out of the room with a wide grin. "Guinevere had a healthy baby girl" Morgana squeaed with delight hugging a relieved looking Arthur.
"Oh thank god" Arthur said happily hugging her back and spinning her in a circle excitedly before bending down and hugging Anna and Amhar tightly. "Mommy and our new sister will be alright" Arthur whispered to them a they began to relax.
Morgana nodded "Yes they will be fine. Guinevere was asking for you by the way Arthur. You should go see her and I can stay out here with the twins until your done talking to her" Morgana said nodding to Arthur as she sat on the ground with Anna and Amhar on either side of her as she began to tell a story to them. Arthur threw a grateful look Morgana's way before slowly entering the room.
"Guinevere?" Arthur whispered quietly making his way towards the bed. He nodded to Gaius before walking closer and sitting on the bed looking at his wife and the little bundle she was holding. "Hey Love" Arthur whispered kissing her cheek as she looked completely exhausted.
"Hey Arthur, would you like to meet your daughter?" Guinevere whispered attempting to lift the little girl into her husbands arms. Nodding Arthur gratefully took the bundle in his arms cradling it closely. Looking in he saw a small patch of curly dark brown hair and light skin on a little girl. He then noticed a pair of bright blue eyes looking up at him curiously. "I was thinking we could name her Krissy" Guinevere spoke softly laying down further on the covers and closed her eyes with a yawn, feeling exhausted.
Arthur nodded bending down and kissing his wife on the forehead before standing up and pacing the room a little as Krissy still looked up curiously. "Thats right little princess, I am your daddy. Welcome my sweet Krissy" Arthur spoke softly, close to a coo at his new daughter. Krissy yawned and then closed her eyes snuggling into her fathers warm body falling fast asleep in his arms as Arthur watched her proudly thinking this will be a new beginning all because he returned home...to Camelot.
Well? How did you like that chapter? I loved it and think this is good for part 1 of this series. But don't worry it will go on for a while I can promise you that. Anyways what do you think of little Krissy? Arthurs conversation with his father? Vivian? His new bond with his new daughter? Tell me everything! Until next time!

Chapter Question- What do you think Vivian will do next?
PS I don't know if babies open their eyes the first day but in my story Krissy did so I am sorry if I did it wrong but I am keeping it at that. Until next time :)
