DISCLAIMER: FORGOT TO DO THIS LAST CHAPTER BUT I STILL DO NOT OWN MERLIN, SAD I KNOW ;)
Merlin POV:
I trail behind Gaius, Isabella at my side as we make our way towards Gaius and I's chambers. The red, yellows and orange of the sun gone, replaced by a darkening shade of blue as the night sky banished the bright blue of the day. As I watch the ever darkening sky a sudden thought came to me.
"urm, Gaius?" I question
"what is it, my boy?" He answers
"Its dark outside, which means its night"
"Well who would have guessed, I must say I am proud of your vast amount of intelligence." He reply's sarcasm obvious in his voice
"No, what I'm trying to say is at night we sleep, obviously... So where is Isabella going to sleep?" I say
"oh... I see. Well for now she can sleep on my bed, I will sleep on the flo-"
"No, It's okay, really. I shall sleep on the floor, I do not want to cause any problems" she interrupts Gaius, her voice telling us there was no point arguing.
It was then we arrive at Gaius's chambers door, he opens the maturing door as it screeches as if it was screaming in protest not wanting to be opened. We sat down and ate supper, our conversation on what tomorrow would bring. Soon enough our plates were clean and Giaus bid us a goodnight before he retreated to his bed. I stood, placing all the dishes in the sink (AN:I have no idea if they had sinks or not, also not sure that if they did, they would have properly been called something else, but whatever its a sink now :P) and started to quietly wash them up. I hear a chair quietly scrape the floor as Isabella stands, I look over my shoulder and once again I found the breathe being taken out of my lungs at the sight in front of my eyes , the flickering of a candle lit half of her beautiful while the other half was hidden beneath a shadow, her green eyes twinkling in the dim light. I must have been staring for quite a while because she coughs loudly bringing me out of my gawking.
"Sorry" I mutter before adding "We should rest, early morning tomorrow!" I say as I walk to my chambers, I open my door and I hear her delicate footsteps follow me up the concrete steps and into my room.
"urm...Merlin?" she enquires
"Yes?" I answer turning to her
"have you any blankets and pillows I can use?"
"oh... urm... Sleep in my bed. I will sleep on the chair."
"But Merlin, I do not wish to kick you out of your own bed"
"Really Isabella is aright, I have slept in worse places. Trust me. It is only until you find your own place to live, and I do not mind. We both need the rest, so no arguing."
"If you are really sure"
"Yes, now go. Rest." I say as I walk to my closet, I look over my shoulder making sure she was not looking before I rush to charge into a night shirt and trousers. I turn around to find Isabella deep in slumber, drowning in my blanket. I sat down in the chair watching Isabella sleep, her face looked more youthful in sleep, the troubles of her life disappeared. I watch her chest rise and fall a rhythmic continuation which soothed away all my worries as I knew she was alive and soon I found myself asleep, in a peaceful slumber.
The early light cast its way into my chambers waking me from my dreamless slumber, I look around in confusion. Why am I on a chair? I think before my eyes fell in the still sleeping Isabella, then I remembered. Since she was still asleep I deided to leave her be, and walked to my closet changing quickly into a shirt, trousers, jacket and my red scarf. I look cast one finall look at Isabella before quietly slipping out of the door. I found Gaius still asleep, so I grab an apple and a piece of bread, before rapidly writing a note which read:
With Arthur and the knights. Will be back later.
Merlin.
And with that I ran out of the door towards Arthurs chambers.
So that was chapter 7! was not as long as usual but hope you enjoy anyway. next chapter will be on Merlin, Arthur and co, go to where Isabella was attacked.
Thanks again all my readers :D Later Taters
