"Merlin's late again." Arthur commented, staring out his window. Gwen stiffened, her breath hitching at his words.
"Arthur." She said softly. He turned to her, his eyes distant. When she came closer to him, she could smell the alcohol on his breath. That explained his absent mindedness. "Sit down please." The prince complied. Gwen could feel tears building up in her eyes.
"What's wrong, Guinevere?" Arthur's slurred statement only made Gwen more upset.
"Merlin... he's not late, Arthur." Tears fell freely now. "He used his magic to save you and- and Uther-" her voice broke off into choked sobs. Memories flashed through Arthur's mind now.
Smoke. Flames. Screams.
Then silence.
And Arthur remembered why Merlin was late.
