Thank you for all your lovely reviews its nice to know I've got people reading the story! XD
Morgana spent the night at Merlin's house, it was large and spacious bigger then she had ever expected from the servant. There were many rooms so a spare bed wasn't a problem. Morgana hated to go back to her place alone, and in a world so big she was worried the warlock would slip through her fingers again.
The witch made her way out of the guest room and down the carpeted stairs careful to avoid making noise incase Merlin was still asleep. Luckily he wasn't he was sitting on the sofa reading the heavy book he had shown her the night before.
"Made any sense of it?" she asked him standing on the edge of the chair, her nails scratching onto the rough texture.
Merlin shook his head. "No more than we already guessed...there is on line...the one about being joined..I wondered if...no it couldn't be."
Morgana tilted her head, "you wondered what?"
Merlin's blue eyes lifted to meet hers, "It either means, we, you and I joined as one as in-"
"Marriage?"
Merlin laughed at the tone of her voice. "or it means we will be joined."
"Like twins?"
Merlin laughed, and when he finally managed to control himself he shook his head a grin still on his lips.
"no as in, there's more of us...Gwen, Arthur, Lancelot."
"Leon." She whispered to herself and Merlin's eyes shot back to meet hers, a confused world weary look in them.
Morgana rolled her eyes and began to pace slightly. "Leon and I were once..." she stopped and her eyes met Merlin's, he got the picture.
Nodding to himself he wondered how Leon had kept it to himself...Leon had died earlier than the other knights. He died bravely in battle saving the kings life.
He had a single son who Merlin watched grow into an equally brave knight; his mother had died in child birth leaving the son under the care of the king. Unfortunely Merlin hadn't stuck around long enough to find what had become of the boy.
Merlin put a hand to his head, going back to the original topic of conversation. "the only problem is...its taken hundreds of years for our paths to finally cross...it could be another thousand before we meet another from our time..."
Morgana now sat down beside Merlin and took his hand. "then a thousand we shall wait. But we shall spend those thousand years together..."
Merlin smiled and he was glad to now have the company of Morgana, but if he had a chance to find Arthur...to find Gwen and Gwaine...or Freya. Merlin would jump at the chance.
Morgana seemed to sense this and she dropped his hand. "Oh...i..i understand... you can't forgive me can you?"
Merlin furrowed his eyebrows. "I can, I have...its just...i can't lose you."
Morgana smiled and blushed at that and than she placed her delicate hand on his soft cheek.
She leaned into his ear and whispered to him softly. "who said you were ever going to lose me?" She pulled back just in time for Merlin to catch her off guard and he pushed his lips against hers, she felt her hands make their way to the back of his neck and ruffle up through his hair. He finally pulled away and rested his forhead against hers. This was the chance he never had, the dream he had dreamt for many years.
"I love you-" at that the room began to fog and a piercing screech filled their ears Morgana lifted her hands to cover her ears and Merlin attempted to do the same but found they were frozen to spot.
There was a flash and then Merlin felt energy drain from him, the fog began to clear and Merlin saw Morgana's eyes beside him.
"Merlin are you-" she was about to finish the sentence when a blonde familiar face lifted up from behind the sofa.
His eyes widened at the sight of Morgana and he attempted to pull his sword out. Unfortunely fro him his hand hit bare skin, as he realized he was naked he caught sight of Merlin.
"MER-lin what is going on?"
Merlin attempted to keep a straight face and threw a cushion to the prince to cover his shame.
Merlin stood up quickly and hugged the naked prince.
"You have no idea how happy I am to see you." The prince raised an eyebrow and pushed the servant off.
"that's great...but can we hug when I'm wearing clothes?"
