Arthur's POV

Ah! It's so tiring these days. I have to sign all these documents for my marriage with Guinevere. I haven't been able to see my friends in ages. I missed out on Bans son birthday. Hah! I'm really not a good friend. I'm trying to be a good king by protecting my kingdom as well. People want me to marry so our kingdom could have a heir. I feel like life is messed up. Oh well. I have to think positive here. I got up out of my chair and decided to take a stroll around my kingdom. As I walk out of my castle I noticed something in front of the gates. I walked towards it and what I saw shocked me. It took me a minute to realise what it was. It was a baby in a basket. Yep. A baby with orange hair and purple eyes. Huh? No way. I saw a piece of paper laying on the baby. I picked it up and it read.

'This is your baby. You better take responsibility. I'm done taking care of this brat!'

Huhhhhhhh?!?!?!? N-no way! This can't be! This can't be my kid! I'm too young! Wait this kid already has hair so he's probably about 1 years old. So wait.... did I do something a 2 years ago since he looks one year old and a woman takes 9 months until she gives birth. Sooo wait. I-I-I did this? With a woman at 19! No no no no no. This can't be. I must've been drunk! Oh god. I'm such a douchebag! I wonder how the woman felt. She must've had a hard time handling this baby by herself. Oh no. But wait- what will Guinevere think? She'll probably think I'm some bastard playboy! Oh well it's not like I care about her. Wait! What am I saying? I can't say that! She's my fiancé.

"Nappo". The baby said.

Uh huh. So I guess this has to be my baby- I mean he does have my hair and eyes- um I'm in trouble. I picked up the baby and went and told the maids. They were all shocked.

"Um don't worry King Arthur. You were drunk haha".

"But it doesn't make up the fact that someone was pregnant with my child for a long time and had to live with the pain. I feel so awful but I don't know who the mother is".

"Umm have you told Princess Guinevere?"

"Oh no. How could I? She'll probably think badly of me".

"W-waahhhhhh!" The baby started wailing. Oh no. I think he's hungry or he probably need a diaper change. I told the maid to get him food and change his diaper. After we fed him he was still crying.

"Huh maybe he needs his mum?" One of my maids said.

"Oh I'm not sure".

"Or maybe he wants to go outside?" He other maid said.

"Not likely but we could give it a try".

I went outside with the baby strapped on the front and put on glasses and a hat to disguise myself. I don't want any rumors going around. I walked around Camelot. He kinda stopped. Huh it seems like he likes the outdoors. I was walking perfectly fine until someone tapped me on the shoulder. I turned around and see uh... Merlin! Oh no. She's going to recognize me!

"Arthur is that you?"

I cleared my throat and deepened my voice. "No" I said.

"I know it's you Arthur. And why are you carrying a baby?"

"Uh..."

"Wait. He looks like you. Is he?"

"Y-yea". I looked down. I didn't want Merlin to be disappointed in me".
