Magic Chose Us

Chapter 4

'What just happened?' Merlin asked after staring at the king's ward for what seemed like a very long time.

Morgana blushed, 'I'm sorry... I don't know what came over me I-'

Merlin cut her off with another kiss, 'I didn't say I didn't like it.'

They smiled at each other and then they heard the front door open and jumped away from each other. 'Gaius?' Merlin called, 'is that you?'

'Of course it's me Merlin, who else would it be,' the old man chuckled. Merlin looked at Morgana, remembering that he had thought she had been Gaius, before she had entered his room.

Morgana looked back with a worried look in her eyes, how was she going to leave without making Gaius suspicious? Of course he knew about Merlin teaching her magic -though he didn't approve- but both had a guilty conscious and so that particular excuse didn't cross their mind.

Gaius entered the room, about to say something, but whatever he was going to say left his mind as soon as he saw Morgana and the obvious blush on both their faces.

'What's going on here?' he asked.

'Uh...' Merlin's mind froze as he tried desperately to think of something to say.

'Merlin was just teaching me another spell,' Morgana told him.

Gaius didn't buy it, something in his eyes told them he knew exactly what had just happened, 'Is that so?'

'Yes,' Merlin confirmed.

'Merlin, can I talk to you for a minute?' Gaius asked.

'Sure,' Merlin replied.

'Alone.'

'Oh right,' Merlin and Morgana got up at the same time.

'I'll just be leaving now, thank you Merlin,' Morgana said awkwardly before leaving the room.

Merlin watched as she fixed her dark hair and retreated from the room. 'Merlin, are you listening to me?' Gaius asked, waving in front of his face.

'Hmm?'

Gaius sighed, 'I said I don't think it's a good idea to be teaching Morgana magic, she's too close to the king...' Merlin sensed a double meaning to his words. He didn't think Merlin should be with Morgana because she was too close to the king.

'Morgana is a powerful and independent woman, she's not going to get caught by Uther; the king doesn't control everything in her life,' Merlin protested.

Gaius offered a sympathetic smile, 'You will start to cause suspicion, the kings ward doesn't suddenly become friends with a servant.'

'Well it seems that we've been friends for a while now and nobody has said anything.'

'There are rumours and Morgana could be dangerous; she is getting more and more powerful. I fear that if Uther passes the execution of another sorcerer she may cause quite a fuss.'

'You know what Gaius? I don't have time for this... I have a stable to clean.'

Merlin stormed out of the house, how dare Gaius imply that he and Morgana couldn't be together! How is that fair when he never said anything about Arthur and Gwen's relationship. Though Merlin loved Gaius and respected him greatly sometimes he wished that he would leave him be.

On his arrival to the stable, Merlin found Morgana with her horse.

Making sure they were alone, Merlin approached her, 'Lady Morgana,' He greeted.

Morgana jumped then calmed down as she realised who it was, 'Merlin, you scared me.'

'Sorry.'

'Look, about what happened...'

'I understand if you think it won't work; you're the king's ward and I'm just a servant.'

'No Merlin... I want to make it work... I still don't understand why you stick with being a servant; you could be so much more!'

'A time will come when people with magic will have the same rights as everyone else. For now we must be patient... I never wanted power, Morgana.'

'I know, that's part of why I love you,' she smiled.

Merlin froze. That was one of the cheesiest lines to have ever been said but at the same time she had just told him she loved her.

Merlin chuckled nervously, 'And what's the other part?'

'Don't push your luck, Merlin,' Morgana sighed, 'Now, I must get back before Uther sends guards looking for me,' she kissed him on the cheek and turned to leave. Merlin grabbed her wrist and pulled her back with a playful smile. 'What are you doing Merlin? I have to go!'

'Love you too,' He said, kissing her lips before letting her go and turning to do the job at hand.

Some drama will be arising in the following chapter and I have to re-watch a few episodes first so chapter 5 might be a little slow (I'll probably up load it later today) Thanks for reading :)

EllieMJayx: ehehe, yep that was pretty much my reaction to writing them. I just love writing it... I suppose I've made it a little cheesy but I don't even care because they're cute to write :) glad you like it and my updates my slow down a little if i'm not finished it by the time I go back to school :/ sorry.

EleanorLovett55: Of course i'll be continuing with mergana; this whole story is based on it! and it's so fun to write, you're going to have to forgive me for being cheesy (I regret nothing)

MICKEY.G.B: I was seriously bored yesterday :/ I'll probably be the same today (even though I should be doing revision) The witchfinder will most probably be part of the next chapter, thanks for the suggestion :)

SUGGEST EVENTS FROM THE SERIES AND I WILL TRY TO INCLUDE THEM!
