Chapter 3- Caught

Arthur woke up with Jonathan snoring loudly. He ran a hand through his blonde hair and groaned inwardly. He had just been woken from a fabulous dream. Merlin was kissing Arthur lightly on the lips before drawing him closer, hungrily. His hands rubbed the young princes hard chest, under his shirt. Merlin lips began assaulting Arthur's neck as his hands drifted downwards- another snore from Jonathan tore Arthur from his thoughts. Shifting Arthur groaned as he saw the bulge in his pants. Silently he quickly snuck from the tent and headed to the river.

As he splashed water on his face Arthur took a deep breath. Wiping his face he looked around. Frowning he saw the red shirt of Merlin. Coming closer he saw Merlin sitting crossed legged on the ground, a hand held out in front of him and his eyes glowing gold. Hovering on front of him was a large stick, twirling and spinning in the air.

Arthur's mouth fell open. Merlin was doing magic. He was as a sorcerer. His manservant was doing magic. Merlin hadn't noticed Arthur yet and was having fun. His smile lighted his whole face. Arthur couldn't help but notices how obvious it was. All the times Merlin had used magic to save his life. The light ball that aided Arthur and the storm that had appeared out of nowhere, he knew it had been Merlin.

If Merlin used magic than surely it was not all bad. Merlin was the kindest person he had ever met.

Silently moving closer to Merlin, Arthur leant against the tree. He had decided that he didn't care that Merlin knew magic, it had saved him life. He would not turn him over to the guards.

"Having fun?" Arthur drawled, a smirk on his face. Merlin spun around, mouth open. The stick fell, hitting Merlin on the head.

"Ouch," Merlin cried, rubbing his head and Arthur couldn't help but chuckle. This snapped Merlin back to Arthur. He had gone awfully pale and looked as if he had stopped breathing.

"I'm not going to give you to my father," Arthur assured Merlin. The thought of Uther doing something to Merlin tugged painfully on Arthur's heart.

"I'm doing magic, aren't you afraid?" Merlin asked, confused.

"Should I be?" Arthur asked, raising an eyebrow.

"NO! I would never hurt you or anybody else," Merlin cried and Arthur smiled.

"I know you wouldn't. After all you have saved my life a few times," Arthur said. Merlin clumsily got his feet and ran a hand through his hair and smiled sheepishly at Arthur.

"Figured it out, huh?" Merlin asked.

"Yes," Arthur said. He paused. "Are you powerful?"

"Gaius says I am. I've been able to do this since birth which is apparently rare," Merlin said, looking off into the distance as if remembering something. Arthur came closer.

"You've been lying to me this whole time?" Arthur said, sounding hurt. Merlin's eyes went wide.

"I'm sorry! I didn't want to! The amount of times I have almost told you," Merlin rambled on. "I made a promise. I couldn't tell you."

"It's OK. I understand," Arthur said, stopping in front of Merlin. Merlin looked up, a sparkle of hope in his eyes.

"You're not mad?" Merlin asked.

"Of course not, you idiot," Arthur said and his leaned forward, crushing his lips against Merlin's. Merlin's eyes went wide with surprise but quickly closed and he kissed Arthur back. Pushing Merlin back against a nearby tree he pressed himself closer.

Merlin wrapped his arms around Arthur's neck and parted his lips. Arthur's tongue slid against Merlin's. Arthur's hands slid down Merlin's chest and settled on his hips, his thumb stroking the skin. Merlin moaned in Arthur's mouth. Needing breath Arthur pulled away and rested his forehead against Merlin's. Both were panting heavily. Merlin played with the bottom of Arthur's hair.

"Took your time," Merlin breathed, teasing. Arthur scowled at him.

"Not my fault," Arthur said. "I'm surprised you figured it out. I was beginning to think you didn't have a brain."

"Ha ha, you really funny, Arthur," Merlin said, rolling his eyes. Arthur pressed his lips to Merlin's again, affectively shutting him up.

He gently pulled away.

"They'll be waking up soon," Arthur said. Merlin's hand detangled themselves from Arthur's hair and ran down his body. He brushed the fabric of his pants and grinned. Arthur moaned slightly.

"You may need a while," Merlin teased. Arthur grinned back.

"Maybe you could do something about that," Arthur whispered in Merlin's ear and gently bit his ear. Merlin groaned.

Arthur and Merlin walked back into camp, Merlin grinning. Arthur tried to keep a straight face but seeing Merlin smile made him smile also.

"Alright, lets get packing and head back," Arthur said loudly. The Knights nodded and Merlin hurried to his tree. He quickly packed up his things, quicker than he thought possible, and was ready before the knights.

Mounting their horses they rose off. Arthur glanced at Merlin when he past.

"You know, I've suddenly begun to like hunting," Merlin laughed, a sparkle in his eyes. Arthur grinned.

Arthur was in his chambers, waiting. They had gotten back from their hunt and Gaius had needed Merlin's help immediately. Darkness had now fallen over the kingdom and Arthur was waiting for Merlin. It late and Arthur begun to worry. Suddenly his door open and Merlin came in.

"You forgot to knock," Arthur said, a smile tugging on his lips.

"Want me to go back and try again?" Merlin asked, teasing. Arthur pulled Merlin towards him and crushed his lips to Merlin's.

"Don't you dare," Arthur growled against his lips.

Their tongues danced together and Merlin pulled Arthur's shirt off. Arthur took Merlin's off and pushed him on to the bed. He kissed Merlin's neck, causing him to moan and run his hands up and down Arthur's chiseled chest. Arthur crushed his lips back against Merlin's, his hands running down his boy and settling on his hips, his hands dipping lower.

Merlin and Arthur laid, exhausted on Arthur's large bed, tangled together in the sheets.

"I love you, Merlin," Arthur said sleepily, but still meaning it.

"I love you too," Merlin said and gently kissed his lips.

The laid together, until dawns breaking rays, asleep in each others arms finally. Merlin had one thought be fore drifting to sleep. He should go hunting more often.
