I was taken back at Merlin's statement. I turned and smirk at Merlin
" the King can look at mail under suspicion"Merlin then arch his eyebrow at me.
" and tell what crime am I under suspension for" crap Merlin knows more about the laws then I thought
"with out a charge you can not open my mail. "fine I won't open his mail
" also if you did open it without a charge and your read it and find a crime in the mail the evidence gets dismissed. They are some of the oldest laws Camlote has. " that spiked my interest
" are you saying Merlin that you are committing a crime.? " Merlin just rolls his eyes and walks away. With his back turned to me he says
" by Arthur I got to go get ready to leave"

What the hell are they doing sending me a letter though the main mail room. Are they trying to get me kill. When I got to my room I pulled out the letter and looked at the seal. My royal seal. I then ripped it opens and began to read the letter.
Dear Ermys,
My lord. I wish to celebrate your birthday with five of our closest friends. I also wish to help you in the settling of your new powers to come. Me and our dear friends have a gift of a life time for you. I know that you are a busy person. Haha get the joke becouse your not a real person. You are a worlock haha. Any way please take some time off. Come home, please for your birthday.
Your friends,
Averr
Prince Mike
Evert
Lovegood
Will (author note: author never met will)
Prince Mark
That is right not only am I turning 20 so, is Ermys is to. God that is going to hurt like hell. You see, every year my powers grows, on my birthday, but it is worse every five years. For some reason my powers have a major spike. Averr and Evert are magic users. Though they are week. The little help they provide will make me fell so much better.
I guess I will attend the party instead of going to my mom's or I could take her with me. I think I will do the first one. My mom is old, she does not need to be raiding a dragon. Which will be the only way to make it on time.
I started to pack my bagges. When I was done, I went down stairs and saw the Knights and Arthur standing there. My grip on the letter grew stronger
" hey what are you doing here"
I said while I walked over to the fire Gaius keeps going and I threw the letter in. I stood there and watch it burn to make sure it can't be saved.
" not much mate want to see you off" Gawain said to me
" thanks I guess"
I looked over at author and saw him staring at the fire
" why burn the letter Merlin". He said while looking at me
" trash don't worry about it" I looked over at Lancelot
" hey lance can I ask for favor" he surged and spoke
" what up" I darted my eyes at Arthur then back to him
" if I get any mail don't let Arthur look though it"
he then shuged an ok
" and prey, tell why I can't look though your mail "I looked him in the eyes
" becouse my life dose not evolve around you pulse I have a girlfriend and the last thing I need is for you to read my mail "That chought Artihur attention. He then burst out laughing
" Merlin nice joke " I snorted and looked away
" you are welcome I figured a little hoummer before I left prat "
" idiot" the Knights was looking at use like we grew a second head. That right I never told them.
It really is a joke and it makes me feel better that he remberd it. You see Arthur asked long ago why never dated. I told him that the love of my life had died and that I am never dating again. At first he tried to set me up on dates and at first I put up with it, then it became annoying. And one day I snapped.
Flash back
" Arthur you need to stop ok"
"no not until you have a girl friend"
" Arthur, would ever date again if Gwen died"
" no "
" that is how it is with me, some people get lucky. They get to live with the love of there life I am not one of them OK"
" I will stop but promise me that one day you will tell me what happen to her one day"
"she was killed that is all I am ever going to tell anyone"" to tell him will break him "
that day we truned it into a joke. He never did asked again and never tried to set me up aguin.
end of flash back

i smiled when Merlin called me a prat. Let's me know everything is ok between us. Merlin voice shock me out of my state
" what are are you going to be doing while I am gone "
" tarven" no shock there Gawain
" well I am going to be doing something more beneficial to the kingdom unlike Gawain. I am going to a treaty signing"
" just don't get yourself killed I like having a jod "
" is that all you see me for, a jod" I waited for Merlin to anwer he had this look on his face. If he said yes I am throwing something at him. I mean really, no respect
" ... Pretty much " I grabbed the nearest odject which was an unlit candle stick and threw it at him.
" Merlin mate when you get back we will celebrate your birthday. A little bit of mead some pickled eggs and of course my amazing gift that I got you. Pluses while you gone those of us that did not get you a gift can buy you one with out the awkward o my gosh I am so sorry I forgot about your birthday. Right Arthur" God I wanted to kill him
" die Giwen die " I said though clenched teeth
Merlin laughed and told us that he was leaving. As he walked out the doors he threw over his shoulder, the candle stick and kept walking.
Merlin povWhen I reached the clearing where I call my ever so friendly over sized lizard. " hey I need a ride
Kilgharrah looked at me with narrowed eyes " I am not a horse Merlin" I rolled my eyes " please I need to get to the castle as soon as possible " " young warlock the things I do for you" " face it you don't do it for me you do it for distany"When I got to the clearing out in the forest of the woods and said my thanks. The dragon flew away. I grabbed my packs of the ground and walked to the horse that was waiting for me. On the hourse was my noble clothes and my royal seal. I saw a figure coming towered me. He then drops to his knees
" good to have you back my lord"
" willlllllllllllllllll...you know I hate when you do that " will then smirks back at me
" I know why do you think I love to do it"
he told me while standing back up. I just roll my eyes and grabed my ne clothes and when to Change behind a tree.
" It is good to have you back Merlin"
" it is good to be back and I can't wait to sleep in a real bed tonight. "
" I don't know what you are up to in Camelot. In fact none of us do. But you know that you will aways have a bed here." After will's little statement I got up on my hourse and road back to Evermore with the grace of a king.
