Two years had passed and there had already been many changes in Camelot.
By your request Lancelot and Gwaine had returned to Camelot in the following months of taking the throne and were knighted. Leon was made head knight only just below Arthur. Lancelot began courting Guinevere as he had held feelings for her all this time. While Gwaine had started courting your maidservant Dahlia.
Merlin and Morgana had gotten married a year into your reign. Merlin was helping Morgana control her magic and she was learning to control and use it with care. Morgana had also confessed to Arthur about being his sister and despite the slight anger at his father's infidelity to his mother; he didn't blame Morgana and accepted her with open arms.
You and Arthur were still going strong, not much to anyone's surprise. Ygraine was becoming a replica of the little prince and princess that used to run around these ancient halls. She was a lively and happy child, much to yours and Arthur's delight.
Magic was still banned, but you had been dropping hints to Arthur. He had become more lax in his restrictions of it without his father's influence. Merlin was no longer Arthur's servant yet he would occasionally still help him with things.
————-Tucking Ygraine in for bed, you leaned over and kissed her forehead. "Goodnight my baby." You whisper.
"Goodnight, mommy." Ygraine said before falling asleep as you stroked her hair.
Glancing up at the doorway you saw Arthur walking toward you. You smiled at him softly as his focus was locked on you and your daughter.
You stood gently to not wake her before sliding into Arthur's arms. His arms wrapped around you and held you to him. He must have recently taken a bath after training, as he smelled of his fragrance oils.
You notice the piece of cloth around his neck and narrowed in on it, "what's that for?" You ask and he notices what you're referencing. He smiles before taking the piece of cloth and wrapping it around your head.
"Arthur, what are you doing?" You chuckle softly.
"Do you trust me, my love?" He whispers and you smile.
"You know I do." You admit.
"Then allow me be your eyes for a moment...I promise it'll be worth it." He says, you nod and you feel him take your hand and guide you toward the door.
"I swear if I trip and die, I'll haunt your ass." You threaten and he just chuckles.
You feel like you'd been walking forever before Arthur finally removes the blindfold. It takes a moment for your eyes to adjust, before you gasp at what you see. Your favorite flowers adorn the room and candles are lit on every surface.
"Oh Arthur, it's beautiful!" You say mesmerized.
"...and yet still only half as beautiful as you." He compliments and you can feel your face burn.
