Merlin was halfway asleep when he heard a knock at the door. Merlin groaned turning the light on.

"Who's there?" Merlin called, reaching for the handle.

"It's me, Gaius." Came the voice from the other side.

"What do you want?" Merlin asked opening the door.

"I've got news from Uther." He spoke from the doorway.

"On what?" Merlin asked.

It's been over hundred years since Arthur had passed and Merlin still hadn't gotten over it.

"Arthur." Gaius replied as he sat in Merlin's chair.

"What about him?" Merlin said sadly, he missed him dearly.

"Well, as you haven't aged at all and stayed 22 for the last hundred years, Arthur hasn't aged either. He's still the handsome blonde you cherished."

"He would have been but he's gone Gaius and he's not coming back until we are ready for his return. And it seems like it's never going to happen. So if you don't mind, please leave. I would like to go back to sleep."

"Merlin, you don't have to say that." Gaius spoke as he got up heading to the door. "Well, if you want to see him, you know where to find me." The old man walked out, ignoring Merlin's calls.

"He's all yours." Said the voice of the recent visiter, pushing the blonde in the room.

Merlin's eyes locked with Arthur's. Merlin refused to believe it was him.

"No," Merlin muttered running to the bathroom shutting and locking the door behind him.

There was no way that was Arthur. He watched him die in his arms, he watched as the boat drifted down the lake.

"Merlin." Called the prince softly, knocking in the door. "Open up, its me."

"No, you're not real,"

"Merlin, you gaint girl, let me in."

Arthur knocked on the door four times, something he always did to let Merlin know it him.

With shaky hands and tears in his eyes Merlin slowly opened the bathroom door.

"Arthur?"

"Told you it was me."

Merlin looked the price over before smacking him.

"You told me you would never leave me. I waited hundreds of years for you to return."

"Okay one, ow and two, I'm back now so stop with the slapping."

"How long have you been back?"

"Since last night. I wanted to see you before anyone else."

"How did Gaius know?"

"He's the one who found me. I had no idea where I was, what year it was. I'm not even sure if this is real. All I remember if being in your arms and that's it," Arthur added.

"I thought you were dead Arthur, but, you're here now. And I want you."

"I want you too, but later. I'm still trying to figure out this out. Apparently there's electricity now?"

"Yes sire, it's this brand new 'invention'."

"You don't have to call me sire anymore. I believe we are equal now."

"Of course, but you're still a prat."

"Easy now. I can still easily take you. Do you still have your magic?"
