Merlin is owned by the BBC, not by me(:
I want to thank everyone who has reviewed this story so far, I appreciate what you have all said.
Alright, so Merlin has just been sentenced to death (Oh no! :(). Arthur managed to give Merlin and Morgana some time alone in the cell, without Uther's permission (Good on Arthur!) This is their convosation. Hope you like it(:
Merlin sat down, with his back against the wall. "I really didn't want this to happen." He admitted. He looked at her, chest rising and falling so carefully. Clearly he was nervous, and Merlin was starting to breakdown inside.
Morgana sat down next to him, her head resting against his shoulder. "I don't want you to die." Morgana said. She sniffed the air, unable to stop the tears that were trickling down her cheeks. Morgana believed that Merlin had saved her - He did save her.
"If only there was a way out of here…" Merlin mumbled. The side of his head gently lulled against the top of her head. "But when I'm gone, look after Arthur." Merlin begged her. It was more of a request, and he hoped that she would grant him his last request.
Morgana didn't know what to say, she was just trapped in silence. After swallowing a couple of times, she allowed out small whimpers. Morgana found it so hard to speak to him, knowing that she was going to lose the man she was in love with. "I'm going to get you out of here." Morgana promised him. Her voice was quiet and shakey, as if her vocal cords were starting to break - Just like her heart.
"Morgana, no." Merlin calmly spoke. He looked at her, lifting his head up. Merlin cupped her chin, lifting it up. "Let this go." He begged her. Merlin kissed her once more, a single tear escaping his closed eye. As soon as he pulled away, his fingers dropped from her chin. "I don't want you to end up getting-" Merlin began to explain.
"But I can't let you die, and I certainly won't let you go!" Morgana cried. Her heart tightened within her chest, wanting to scream out loud. This was Uther's fault! Morgana stood up, looking at him once more. "I'm breaking you out of here, as soon as I can." She promised once more.
Merlin stood up, holding her hands. "No, please don't try it." Merlin commanded softly. He kissed her hand, his thumb gently stroking over her pale knuckles.
Morgana pulled her hands away, pulling him into an embrace once more. She wasn't going to stop anytime soon, she just needed him in her life. "But-" Morgana began to argue.
"Shh." Merlin whispered softly.
"I don't want to let you go, it's not going to be easy." Morgana admitted.
"Letting go is the hardest thing to do, but it has to be done, Morgana." Merlin explained. He breathed out deeply, his eyes screwing shut for the moment. Soon enough, he opened his eyes, looking down at her.
Morgana looked up at him, biting her lower lip so gently. "I wanted to do so much with you, now I won't have that chance." Morgana admitted. She blinked a few times, more tears streaming down her cheeks. "I can't believe you want me to let this go." Morgana commented.
Merlin kissed her lips softly, allowing the passion to slip out. His strong arms remained around her, keeping the close contact. One more tear fell out of his eye. Yes, he wanted to spend more time with her. It was too late now, he was about to be put to death. Merlin had now failed his destiny.
Morgana kissed him back, her arms going around his neck now. She didn't really want to stop this moment, but she knew that she would have to. This kiss did silence her, but it didn't stop her worrying about Merlin, who had just been sentenced to death. Morgana pulled away. "I love you." She whispered gently. Morgana soon stepped out of his reach, turning away now.
Merlin watched her walk away, her words echoing within his head. "I'll always love you." Merlin responded. He sighed, seeing the cell door now shut. This was it; his life was now thrown out of the window.
Morgana looked at Arthur, crying even more. "I can't watch him die, Arthur!" Morgana whimpered. Her hand went over her mouth, emotions uncontrollable now.
Arthur gently took Morgana in his arms, allowing her to cry it all out. "I know you love him, and I know you don't want him to go." Arthur spoke softly. He sighed, closing his eyes for the moment. "I can try and help you." Arthur insisted.
Morgana cried harder. She craved for Merlin; she would die to have his love. Morgana was surprised that Arthur already knew about this, well that was probably because of what he just witnessed. "Thank you." She managed to say.
The two siblings remained in the cells, trying to comfort each other. Arthur didn't want to lose his manservant, even if he was an idiot most days. And for Morgana's sake, he was going to help her out in every single way possible.
As Merlin sat back down, he picked up a straw of hay, twiddling it in his fingers. There had to be a way out, there just had to be! Merlin looked around; only a small window was seen, with a hint of daylight slipping through. Merlin looked back down to the floor, breathing in so deeply. Picking gently at the piece of hay, he started to do some thinking.
So Arthur has accepted it(:
But can Morgana and Arthur break Merlin out before his execution?
