« Well, I'm glad you walked away...you weren't gonna beat him. » Gwen added, which hurt. I could see Y/N putting her hand in front of her mouth trying not to laugh but let some chuckle escaped
« Oh i... I could beat him. » I said trying to sound confident
« You think? » Gwen and Y/N asked at the same time
« Because you don't look like one of these big muscly kind of fellows. » Gwen continued
« Thanks » I said sarcastically
« No!No. I'm sure you're stronger than you look. It's just Arthur's one of these real rough, tough save- the-world kind of men and, well... »
« What ? »I asked not missing Y/N's amusing face
« you don't look like that. »
I made a sign for her to come closer.
« I'm in disguise » I whispered to her, and she laughed
« Well it's great you stood up to him » she said
« You think so? »
« Arthur's a bully and everyone thought you were a real hero. »
« Oh, yeah? »
« mm-mmh »
« If you guys are done flirting I think you should know that we have some company » Y/N said, she startled me a little, I've forgotten she was there.
« Oh excuse me, Guinevere, my fans are waiting. » As the kids were back at throwing tomatoes at me, I received one in the middle of my face and when I looked up to see from who it was, I could see the very familiar y/h/c head smirking at me.

After my visit and training my aim, I was with Merlin and Gaius.
« Do you want some vegetable with that » I teased Merlin
« I know you're still angry with me. »
« And you're right » I replied
« Be nice » Gaius said to me « But she has every right to be angry with you » he added, turning to Merlin.
« Your mother asked me to after you, the both of you. » He continued, I nodded, standing up to lead me to the window where I could see the knights training
« Yes » I could hear merlin said
« What did your mother say to you about your gifts? » Knowing the conversation was only about Merlin I allowed myself to drift off of the conversation watching the knights training even if my eyes wonder only on one of them, but one question took my intention
« Did you ever study magic? » Merlin asked.
« Uther banned all such work 20 years ago. »
« Why? » It was now my turn to ask
« People used magic for the wrong end at that time. It threw the natural order into chaos. Uther made it his mission to destroy everything from back then, even the dragons. »
« What, all of them? » Merlin asked
« There was one dragon he chose not to kill; he kept it as an example. He imprisoned it in a cave deep beneath the castle, where no one could free it. Ah, eat up. When you've finished, I need you to take a preparation to lady Helen. She needs it for her voice. »
« I'll come with you, I need to give the present the king asked me to do »
Before I went to sit down to eat with them, I let my eyes wander one last time, locking my eyes with the blond hair prince.
