Merlin watched out from the windown of the court room across the training field. Young warriors and Knights training was no new scean for Merlin what caught his attention was the fair skinned young man . The son of Lancelot.

Even though conceived by deception the young man was the kind hearted , loyal and brave. He didn't look anything like his father so Merlin assumed that the lad took his appearance after his mother and the soul of his father.

Sir Tristan was not a stranger either . The bravery of the man was heard far and wide. Despite his younger age he had seen his fair share of battels and won all of them . The fiericous warrior had build up the reputation for being cold hearted but fair and chivalrous.

Both were knighted by Lancelot him self and presumably just a day apart. It was not visible to other but Merlin saw it all. The slight glances the pair shared when they thought the other didn't notice. Or the way how Galahad eyes shone in affection and how Tristan only smiled towards the younger man.

"Look at those fools ." Arthur said appearing at the window and looking at galahad and tristan who by now had finished their training and were sitting on the shades of the tree.

"Oh hush . Don't forget that you and the Knights fooled around the same way too when we were younger. "Merlin chided while Arthur merely rolled his eyes

"Ahhh the good old days when you were my manservant remember Merlin? Infact here are the reports on this months taxes. See to them ."Arthur replied shoveling the parchment on the table .

"Of course your royal pratnesss. "Merlin whispered annoyed.

"I heard that ."Arthur said placing a soft kiss on his forehead and looking back at the pair sitting on the shades of the tree planted by merlin and himself years ago.

"I wonder how Lancelot will find out about them.......am sure Guinevere will be pleased and overjoyed. Lance will probably demand a dule from Tristan. "Arthur said wickedly smiling wondering if he should be the one to tell the knight
Oh Arthur will pay anything to see Lancelots face when that happens.

"No you won't Arthur. "Merlin calmly said as if reading the Kings mind. "Beside Lancelot is too noble for such childish acts . They accepted us so they will accept them too. After....."

The surrounding soured for the incident that had occurred. Even after years of happily getting married Lancelot and Guinevere could never concive . Guinevere had various mis carriages despite Merlins herbs and magic to heal her.

So when the rumor of the illigemate son of Lancelot was heard the couple decided to take the boy under their wings . And the while court was proud of the Son of Lancelot , Sir Galahad. The boy was quick and witful and was considered The Purest with his lily White skin and bluest eyes .

"Oh your no fun Merlin. I don't mean any harm to those prats ." Arthur snapped Merlin out of his dark thoughts and tightly embraced the warlock and kissed his neck.

"Besides they remind me of us ."

Arthur and Merlin watched Galahad and Tristan sitting together enjoying the shades of the tree they had planted as a token of their love decades ago.
