A/N - Hi, this has taken me a while to get back to, but was prompted by Rosie99's request for Arthur's proposal to Gwen. I've been a bit obsessed with my stories for NCIS LA, so hopefully I've managed to find my way back to Camelot well enough not to disappoint.

There is also a one-shot, that I'm adding after this. But then this will be complete. Sorry to Singing Tradgey but so far, Arthur hasn't let Tayla tell me about the puppy story. If she does though, I will add it here later.

Disclaimer in Chapter one.

Thanks for those who have stuck with this story and reviewed. They are very encouraging and helped me keep going with this story.

Epilogue.

It had taken Arthur a while to figure out how to propose to Guinevere. He'd thought about flashy proposals, those worthy of a future queen; thought about tricks Merlin might be able to do, as he had done for Tayla and Tristan; thought about the simple kind as well. But it wasn't until Merlin had said something, in a totally unrelated conversation, that he knew just what to do. So they planned and waited for the right time. For now was the time for Tayla to enjoy her wedding. She had never returned to Dover, preferring to stay where she felt safe, wanted and where her life felt real now, without the lies that she had lived so much of her life with. A month of preparations and excitement for his sister, though no one would know that. However, it was now well known though, that Arthur and Tayla were very close, best friend close, but nothing more. The rumours of the previous proposal had evaporated quickly when the news of Tayla and Tristan's wedding and the subsequent delight of King Uther at the strong alliance that this would bring to Camelot - A Knight of Camelot marrying the Princess of Dover. Camelot's people felt it and responded in kind, accepting Tayla as one of their own.

So today was the wedding. Arthur was delighted to be by Tayla's side, as she walked down the aisle. She wasn't completely comfortable with having her father by her side, so Henry had waited at the front, with Tristan and Uther, for her. Arthur had a hard time focusing on the ceremony, he couldn't help looking at Guinevere, wondering how long before this would be them. Of course, he still needed to ask her first, but at least his father wouldn't be a problem. Uther had kept his word and hadn't stood in the way of them being together. In fact, he had actually attempted to get to know Guinevere over the last month. Uther had finally admitted to Arthur, when Arthur had told him of his plans for the proposal, that he was finding he was liking Guinevere and that perhaps, she would make a good Queen after all.

After the feast and when Arthur had danced with Tayla and Guinevere at least twice, he slipped away. It was up to Merlin to make sure Guinevere followed shortly. Merlin didn't disappoint.

Arthur turned and looked at Guinevere as she walked over to him.

"Arthur, what is going on?" Gwen asked him, as he took her hand and walked them closer to the edge of the rooftop.

"Look, Guinevere. Do you see it?" Arthur asked, pointing out into the distance.

Gwen looked out over the wall, wondering what Arthur was up to.

"See what?" Gwen asked. Camelot was lit up, the people were in the streets celebrating the wedding that had happened in the castle. It was a very pretty sight.

"Camelot, and all that it is," Arthur said. "It's beautiful."

"Yes it is," Gwen agreed.

Arthur turned to Gwen, she turned to face him, curiosity on her face.

"Guinevere, you know I love you. You know I love Camelot and I know you love Camelot," Arthur said.

"Of course I do," Gwen replied, a frown flitting across her face at the seriousness in Arthur's voice.

"Help me take care of them. Help me be the King they deserve. Help me give them the Queen they deserve," Arthur said.

"What are you saying?" Gwen asked, her heart racing with hope.

"Marry me, Guinevere. Be their Queen and make sure I am worthy of being their King," Arthur said. Tears fell from Gwen's eyes. She knew what she wanted to say but she couldn't say anything; Arthur's words rendering her speechless.

"Guinevere?" Arthur said, a worried look coming into his eyes. Gwen shook her head slightly and smiled.

"Yes … I will marry you," Gwen said, finally finding her voice.

"Yes!" Merlin yelled from the shadows, making Gwen and Arthur jump.

"Merlin," Arthur said, not taking his eyes of Gwen.

"Yes my Lord," Merlin said.

"Go," Arthur replied as he pulled Gwen into his arms and kissed her.
