Willow's POV

Arthur had me cleaning his room again. Boy had a very bad way of being 'organized'. His rooms a pig stye. I've gotten use to cleaning it though. "Willow we need you in the throne room." Arthur startled me so I ended up dropping his clothes. "Oh! I will be down in a second." I picked up the clothes I dropped and put them away. I walked into the throne room a few minutes after putting his clothes away. "Can you help us with hunting down something?" I tilted my head. "What needs hunted?" Uther stood up and approached me. "We need you to help hunt down a sorcerer." I froze up a little. "How would you like me to help?" He explained what he wanted all of us do. "Willow you will need to go change to do this." I nodded and ran off and put on my stuff. It's stupid that they want me to help. I'M LITERALLY A SERVANT!!!! "Willow take these men and search that half of the village. Listen to what she tells you, and keep her safe." Arthur glared at the knights ,that I'm taking with me, in warning. I waved my hand telling them to follow me. "Be nice when you go in to the houses. It's just plain rude to barg in and be mean." They all nodded as to say 'yeah I understand.' Everyone split up and did what Uther told them to do, but with what I said to do as well. I don't even know why we are doing this so I turned to the knight next to me and asked them. "We are doing this because someone cursed the water we drink and it's killing people." I nodded knowing it ain't anyone in the village.

And hour or so time skip

Everyone meet back up in the throne room. "Sire, I don't think the person we are hunting is in the village." He turned to me with a raised eyebrow. "Explain." I took a deep breath in and started to explain. "The person doing this wouldn't be stupid enough to live in the village. They would have to sneak in or do it from another water source. Well that's my theory anyway." Merlin shot me a look. I ignored it and left. I had went to my room and started to change when my door opened. "Willow I want to thank...you. Oh my I'm so sorry." I looked up startled and covered myself with my dress. "Arthur!" He turned round quickly with a blush covering his face. "I'm so sorry. I didn't know you would be changing." I quickly put my dress on and quickly realized I needed someone to tie the back for me. "Um Arthur can you do me a favor." I was barely above a whisper as I said this. "Can you tie the back of this for me?" He turned around slowly and walked over to me to help. "I am truly sorry Willow." I laughed and told him that it's okay. He slowly started pulling on the strings and asking me if it was to tight. "Arthur your fine pull just a little more." He pulled the strings a little tighter and I told him that it was fine. "You can tie it now Arthur." "Okay. I want to thank you though. Father really appreciates what you did." I turned around and looked at him. "I'm happy to help you and your father. It is what I'm meant to do as a servant." He just stared at me like he was taking in how I looked.

I took that moment to study his face. I took in the structure of his face, the colour of his eyes. Oh his eyes, god they are such a pretty blue. They fit him so perfectly. If only I was a royal. We could be something if I was. It will never happen though.

Arthur's POV

I walked in on her changing. I didn't mean to but I was looking her up and down. I realized what I was doing and turned around with a blush on my face. "Um Arthur can you do me a favor." She was barely above a whisper. "Can you tie the back of this for me?" I turned around slowly and walked over to her. I picked up the strings and pulled it slowly so I didn't harm her. "I am truly sorry Willow." She laughed and told me that it's okay. "Arthur your fine pull just a little more." She was a little louder now but I pulled the strings a little farther. "You can tie it now Arthur." "Okay. I want to thank you though. Father really appreciates what you did." She turned around and looked at me. "I'm happy to help you and your father. It is what I'm meant to do as a servant." I just stared at her, taking in her looks. She's so beautiful. The way her red hair frames her face. The way her eyes shine like emeralds. I leaned in slowly. I was drawn to her like a fish to water. I was so close to kissing her when the door was flung open and Gwen walked in. I moved away quickly and started talking about random things. I looked at Willow quickly and seen a look of shock and disappointment. Ifonly I could have kissed her. No father would disapprove of it and this is wrong anyway.

Willow's POV

I was quite upset that he didn't kiss me. If only Gwen didn't interrupt I could have kissed him. 'No Willow that's wrong. That will never happen.' Arthur moved back quickly and started to ramble on. I was shocked and upset. "Yes Gwen?" She smirked while looking at us. "Gaius wishes to see you." I nodded my head and everyone left. "Hello Gaius. What do you need?" He explained that Merlin told him what I did. "I am kinda happy they think so highly of me. Maybe I am a royal." I laughed after saying that. "It is a possibility." Merlin spoke before Gaius could. "It is Merlin. Maybe you should go look into it." Merlin rolled his eyes and asked me what my full name was. "Willow Nyx Armon." Gaius looked shocked but quickly hide it. "Okay I'll be back later." With that Merlin left.
