It was 2003, The last year of High school for Arthur, Merlin, Morgana, Guinevere and all their other friends.

"I have decided" Merlin said one morning on the bus to school "I am going to go to Camelot Performing arts college when we leave school"

Arthur burst into laughter and Morgana slapped him round the back of the head.

"Arthur!" She shouted "I think it's a great idea Merlin"

"Thank baby" Merlin said and leaned back to kiss his girlfriend as Arthur rolled his eyes

"You seriously want to go into dancing? It's not exactly the best future, I mean it's never secure and the slightest accident or injury can end your career"

"What is your problem Arthur? You've never expressed any problem with it before" Merlin snapped

"It's embaressing if you want me to be honest! People talk about you behind your back Merlin all the time cause you do dancing, The only reason they don't think your gay is cause you are going out with Morgana who happens to be the most popular girl in school"

"I'd kick anybody's ass who calls him gay!" Morgana said hitting Arthur again

"And the fact that Morgana jumps at any opportunity to fight in place of Merlin I'm sure has nothing to do with that idea" Gwen chirps in while smiling at Merlin, Merlin knowing full well of her support for him.

"You and me are the only reason Merlin is popular Morgana!" Arthur said forgetting Merlin was sat there and could hear every word. "If he wasn't my best friend and wasn't your boyfriend he'd be a loser and outcast!"

At that moment the bus came to a halt. Merlin grabbed his bag and threw it over his shoulder planning to be the first one off the bus and into school.

"Merlin," Morgana held tight to his arm, her eyes searching for his to apologize on behalf of her brother. He shrugged her off and made his way off of the bus before Arthur even realized how he'd come off to him.

Morgana hits Arthur over the head again before the three of them gather their things and make their way into the traffic of school goers.

"Well that was eventful," Gwen adds as the school bell chimes.
