Merlin short Fics

Morgana×Merlin

(Authors note: I realise that some of this is a bit unrealistic but its fanfic so dont hate me. Enjoy)
"Oh!" Merlin exclaimed. He was not used to the busy hallways of Camelot. "Im so sorry my lady." The women Merlin had bumped into was not a servant. She wore a blue sliky dress with sequins on. Her skin was pale like Merlins and her hair was as black as night. Merlin could tell she was royal, or someone very special to the king. "Thats ok." She looked up at Merlin and smiled. "No harm done." She had an accent, but Merlin couldnt place it.
"I  should introduce myself, I'm the lady Morgana. Of course you probably know that." Merlin smiled. He didnt know her name until now. He voice interupted his thoughts.
"I saw you at the celebrations the other day. What you did for Arthur... Thank you. He means... he neans alot to me. Please dont tell him i said that!" Merlin chuckled to hinself at that last comment.
"Of course not my lady."
"My lady? Morgana?" Gwens head apeared aroubd the corner. "Oh there you are my lady!"
"Dont worry Gwen I'm fine. I was just speaking to... what was your name again?" Morgana turbed to Merlin her cheeks flushing red.
"I'm Merlin."
"Merlin, this is my servant. Gwen, meet Merlin." Gwen smiled at Merlin.
"Erm yeah. We met."
"Oh."
"MERLINNN!" Arthurs voice echoed around the corner.
"I think theres somewhere you have to be." Morgana smiled as she said it.
"I dont know how you like him so much!" Merlin called back as he ran off to his master.
"So when did you meet?" Morgana asked Gwen as they walked back to her chambers.
"Oh, the other day" Gwen replied.
"He seems nice. I think he could change Arthur." Gwen looked at Morgana surprised .
"In what way?"
"A way that makes him less aragont and idiotic." Morgana replied smirking.
The next day Merlin was delivering a potion to Morgana. It only took him that long to relise that she made him feel special. He thought that that feeling was called love.
As Morgana watched Merlin walk away from her chambers she smiled. She liked the boy. Gwen began to notice things. When Morgana recived flowers from a stranger, Gwen suggested they could be from Arthur, however it doesn't take a genius to work out that Morganas answer was no. I want them to be from Merlin. Gwen soon got tired of Morganas comments. She wouldnt admit her feelings for him. She had spoken to Merlin about his feelings and they were the same. Still nothing happened...
She decided she must come up with a plan. Gwen convinced Arthur to help her, as they were already showing their own feelings for eachother.
It was coming up to Christmas which Arthur and Gwen had decided was the perfect time to set Merlin and Morgana up. They had a plan, and it was a great one. They were going to make Morgana get a present for Merlin, but Merlin wouldn't know who it was from. Arthur was going to make Merlin do the same thing for Morgana. Gwen was speaking to Morgana in her chambers.
"So who have you got to buy for then?" She asked knowing full well Morgana had got Merlin.
Morgana replied, thankfully with the young servants name.
"So what are you getting him then?" Gwen asked.
"I dont know yet."
"Are you going to tell him?" Gwen asked.
"No! What if the King found out? What if HE found out?"
"He wouldnt need to know. The presents get left under the tree, you dont sign your name." Usually Gwen wouldnt contradict her mistresses comands, but her and Arthur had to make this work.
"Well I suppose I'll think about it." Morgana smiled at Gwen and walked away.
Back in Arthurs chambers, Arthur too was having a hard time trying to get Merlin to go along with the plan.
"C'mon mate, its obvious you like her." "You've never called me "mate" before." Merlin smiled to himself as he said that. Maybe there would be lots more "mates" in the future.
"Oh come on Merlin. She wont know its you. I mean its obvious you like her. I dont know how. It might do her some good to know someone appreciates her."
"What do you mean?" Merlin asked worriedly. "Well.... My father keeps being mean to her. She hasnt got it into her thick skull that I care about her. And she knows the note wouldn't be from me as she knows I have to get a present for my father." Merlin thought about it... "Ok. I'll put a note in if.... you give me the day off to buy the present."
"A whole day???"
"Yes" Merlin decided to prove his point. "Fine then." Arthur said, and walked off smiling to himself.
What Merlin and Morgana didnt know that this year, Arthur and Gwen where involved with everything, meaning they could sign the notes!
It was Christmas eve and the presents sat under the huge fur tree in that had sat in the throne room for several weeks now. The servants had decorated the room, with flowers covering the walls. Starnge decorations had been brought in from all over the land.  Pine cones had been painted and brand new tapestries hung from the walls. It was truely beautiful. On the tree were pieces of parchment with little pictures of the nativity on. A wooden star sat at the top of the tree and small candles were hanging from its branches.  Merlin laid his present down underneath the tree. He had wrapped some parchment around it and stuck it down with one of Gauis's newest inventions. He called it "glue". Merlin had brought Morgana a jewellery box. He spent all the money he could spare finding her the perfect gift. He went down the market that day, amd was really getting worried when he came to the last stall. On it, was a jewellery box with the letter "M" carved onto its lid. It had a pattern inclosing the "M" in a box, and when Merlin looked at the the rest of it Merlin saw many patterns and symbols he had notices in Morganas jewellery. He opened the lid, and a grinning Merlin looked down at his reflection. He pushed his ears back. "Stupid ears" he thought. They were always sticking out. "You going to buy that or what?!" The stall holder looked cold and ready to go home. "Oh, yes." Merlin handed over the coins, and started walking back towards Camelot. He had left the note for Morgana in Arthur's chambers so he ran up the stairs to put it in the box.
"MERLIN!"
"Great day off this is." Merlin said to himself and hurried off to find Arthur.
Arthur was waiting with Morgana outside Uthers chambers. They were speaking to him about the festivities. While Morgana, Arthur and Merlin were occupied Gwen went back to her mistresses chambers. Gwen had offered to wrap the present for Morgana so all she needed to do was to forge the note. She sat down at her mistresses desk. Slowly and carefully doing her best to make sure it looked like Morgana's writing she wrote:
Dear Merlin,
Christmas is a time of celebrations but also a time of love. I know you my not feel this way about me, but I love you with all my heart and wish you a wonderful Christmas. Maybe, in the future we can be together at christmas.
All my love,
Morgana xx
After leaving it to dry for a few minutes Gwen folded it neatly, put it in her dress pocket and headed towards Arthur's chambers. She had one last thing to do.
Gwen made her way over to the jewellery box. It was beautiful. But now wasnt the time to stare at the box. No, she had work to do. Arthur had told her where he kept his ink and quill and Gwen found it in seconds. She got the note, and very carefully, doing her best to make her writing look like Merlins, signed the young warlocks name on the parchment. Willing the paper to dry quicker Gwen stood waiting anxiously. Finally she rolled it up, put it inside the box and ran outside. Just a few minutes later, Merlin and Arthur returned.
*****************************************
The candles were out. It was Christmas eve night. Morgana stood at her window, looking up at the stars. She wished on every single one she could see that Merlin loved her too. Just a few rooms away, Merlin stood in the throne room staring at the presents beneath the tree. He hoped that Morgana knew she was cares for and that she always had a friend in need.
*****************************************
The morning came and a thick blanket of snow lay over Camelot and its Kingdom. There was a great feast held in the early afternoon and anyone who was anyone attended. Morgana sat on the head table, next to Uther. On Uthers other side was the prince. When the feast had finish the presents were brought up. Naturally, the King went first. He opened a shiny new crossbow. Arthur beamed with pride. His father was thrilled. Arthur was next, and he recieved a new leather water holder. Gwen smiled at him from across the room. He looked pleased she thought. Finally, it was Morgana. She opened her package and smiled. The jewels on the lid reflected in her eyes as she smiled. She opened the lid and the note was rolled up inside. Merlins stomach was full of nerves. He never thougt she was going to read it in front of everyone. She opened it, her eyes skimming across the page.
"Well, what does it say?" Asked the king. The whole hall had gone silent. Eveybody was waiting for Morgana's answer.
"None of your business." Morgana replied smiling and sending waves of laughter across the hall. With that, all was forgotten and the festivities continued. While the royals presents had been given the rest were given out as well. Merlin waited anxiously. When he recieved his, he opened it quickly. Lying in the parchment was a leather book, much like the one Gauis had given Merlin when he first came to Camelot. But this was not a book if learning, it was blank. On the first page, a hand had scribbled
"For your own adventures"
Then Merlin saw the note. He read it quickly, then looked up. Morgana was staring at him, her face sick with worry. She had not put a note in there!! But whatever it said pleased Merlin, and he sent her a smile from across the room. Relief filled Morgana's face and she giggled quietly.
"Yes, yes! Come on, the feast doesnt serve itself!" And with that Merlin was shoved a plate and made to carry on working.
"Typical." He thought.
*****************************************
After his duties had ended, Morgana was waiting for Merlin.
"I just wanted to thank you." She said "Its beautiful."
"Just like you are." The words slipped out of Merlins mouth. He couldn't believe what he'd said. "I'm so sorry my lady. I dont know what came over me."
Morgana looked somewhat offened.
"Dont lie to me." She said sofly. Merlin thought he could see tears in the corner of her eyes. "Did you mean it? Do you really think I'm beautiful?"
Merlin simply, replied "How could I not?"
