Merlins POV

It's been five days since me and Arthur brought back the supplies from the bandits camp. And Arthur have almost been too kind to me. He haven't thrown anything at me, yelled at me or made fun of me. With other words it's been peacefully boring. I want the old Arthur. I want my Arthur.

Once again I'm on my way to wake Arthur up.

"Rise and shine sleeping beauty." I say in a sing song voice while pulling the curtains open, letting the bright sun brighten up the room.

"You think I'm beautiful." Arthur asks and look at me seriously. I froze and mumble a few things that doesn't make any sense. If I say yes he might get the wrong idea. But that idea isn't so wrong, i think for myself. And if I say no then he'll get angry and I'll have to clean all day, just as payback.

"Yeah, I mean, sure?" I say with a confused expression. Arthur buries his face in his pillow, hiding his face away from me. "You want breakfast?" I say wanting to read his face, did he think if was the right answer or maybe i just want to see his adorable face with his sexy morning hair. Both.

"Yeah." He mumbles and walks up from his bed. Shirtless. He smirks when he notice me staring at him and I quickly look away.

" Like what you see?" He smirks and spin around making all different kind of poses.

"Nah, I've seen better." I say playfully but when I see the hurt in his eyes I immediately regret it. "I was just kidding, you look great." That seems to lighten his mood because he smiles proudly and nod his head in agreement.

"I do look good, don't I?" Arthur says and look at himself in the mirror. I let out a snort, shaking my head and place his food on the table. That's the Arthur I know and love. That's when It hit me. I think I'm in love with Arthur. The prince of Camelot.

The rest of the day goes on smoothly. Sometimes I would catch Arthur looking at me and then quickly turn away when I saw him. It's late now and I need to make sure Arthur have everything for the night. I knock on the door twice before entering, there I see Arthur bathing.

"Why are you still bathing?" I ask. If I'm right he's been there for two hours.

"I don't know. How long have I been in here?" He looks so confused. It's adorable.

"About two hours." I say and laugh slightly, but I quickly stop when he stands up. I look away, blushing.

"Well, don't just stand there. Give me my towel." He says annoyingly but I can almost hear the smile in his voice.

I hand him his towel which he wraps tightly around his hips. I then hand him some clothes and help him put them on, trying not to look at his bare body.

He lays down in his bed and I blow out all the candles. "Is there anything more?" I ask still blushing like a maniac.

"No that will be all. Good night Merlin."

"Good night, sire." I say and walk out of his chamber. Once I'm outside the door I let out a breath I didn't know i was holding. I head to my room, still blushing and smiling slightly.

Arthurs POV

"Good night sire."

That one word 'sire'. I hate it, especially when it's Merlin who says it. I just want him to call me by my name. Every time he says my name my stomach flips and my face get warm.

As I lay in my bed I find myself not being able to fall asleep, I can't stop thinking about Merlin or the face he made when I stood up from my bathtub. He was blushing and his face looked so adorable. All I could think of was to go up to him and kiss the life out of him.

But I couldn't bring myself to do it. What if he didn't feel the same? Why would he? A man loving a man. What would the kingdom think of their prince and soon to be king? These feelings I've been feeling can't be anything else but love. I've been trying to ignore them but I can't. They're too strong.

After one hour of thinking about Merlin and me, I finally drift of to a peaceful slumber.

I wake up by the sound of giggles. I look up to see Merlin standing by the side of my bed giggling.

"What?"

"Nothing. What did you dream of?" He asks smiling like and idiot.

"Nothing!" I quickly answer and blush furiously.

"Didn't sound like nothing." He says and smirks.

In my dream, I've finally had the courage to kiss Merlin. He kissed me back and things just went uphills from there. Just by the thought I blush even more, if that's even possible.

"Oh shut up Merlin." I say and toss a vase toward him. Luckily I miss, I don't want to hurt him. Merlin laugh and I eat my breakfast in silence.

"So, what's planned for today?" I say and sigh. If I could decide, I would lay in bed for a bit longer with the thought of cuddling with Merlin.

"As usual you have practice with the knights but after that you have a meeting with the council." I nod and then Merlin helps me put on my clothes.

Just another boring day. At least Merlin will be with me most of the day.

"Hey. Maybe I can teach you how to fight better. You're pretty much worthless when it comes to fighting the enemies." I say not even trying to sound kind.

"I guess." He says and shrug his shoulders. This day just got a bit better.
