A/N
So, by the overwhelming demand of all my amazing readers, I will definitely write my little 'sequel' it won't be super long like 5 or 6 chapter maybe but at the same time it could be ridiculously long…who knows. My plans for stories sometimes will change unexpectedly… Anyways, enjoy
Merlin was going stir crazy, Gaius, Gwen, and all the knights watched him like a hawk, Gwaine and Arthur were the worst though. They made sure someone was with him at all times while he recovered. It only got worse when Merlin had a dizzy spell while hauling Arthur's laundry to be washed. Merlin didn't exactly pass out, just stumbled a little, but now Merlin was banned from any heavy lifting for awhile, leaving him with virtually nothing to do.
Merlin decided to go down to the training field and watch; no one could get mad at him for doing that, well he certainly hoped so. Merlin slowly walked towards the training field, enjoying getting out of his room for the first time in a week. He stopped and chatted with Gwen for a bit, having been unable to talk to her in awhile. Merlin stood of to the side and watched as Arthur faced three opponents blindfolded. Merlin shook his head as he watched Arthur go, he took them out in about a minute. Arthur ripped off the blindfold, grinning, only to have it vanish at the site of Merlin.
"Merlin" Arthur groaned, "I thought Gaius told you to take it easy!"
"I'm just standing here!" Merlin argued suppressing the urge to roll his eyes, "its fine!"
"I have to agree with Arthur for once on this one!" Gwaine shouted.
"You've got to be kidding me!" Merlin groaned, looking for help from Lancelot or even Leon. Neither of whom jumped to his aid, "I've been under lock down for a week! What's the problem?"
"Merlin, you almost died, do you really expect us not to worry?" Gwaine asked.
"You guys never seemed to mind my near death experiences while on patrol with you!" Merlin argued.
"Well…maybe they think they can handle keeping you from getting hurt by bandits better then you nearly getting killed by a set of stairs" Lancelot argued.
"Yea…wait what?" Gwaine asked unsure if it was meant to be insulting or not.
"This is ridiculous!" Merlin groaned, "When will you let up?"
"When Gaius gives the ok" Arthur replied smugly.
"Then I'm doomed" Merlin declared.
"Between your real mom and everyone here…you've practically got four people mothering you" Leon teased.
"Great…just great..." Merlin groaned.
"We do not mother him" Gwaine snapped.
"No, not at all" Lancelot agreed sarcastically, while rolling his eyes.
"Are you insulting me?" Gwaine asked.
"Why would I do that?" Lancelot asked flashing a grin at Merlin who suppressed his laughter.
"Because your jealous of the fast that Merlin likes me and Arthur better then you!" Gwaine declared.
"Actually right about now I prefer Lancelot" Merlin corrected.
"Why?" Gwaine demanded. By that point Elyan, Leon and Percival were laughing hysterically; But Arthur and Gwaine chose to ignore them.
"He's not mothering me" Merlin replied.
"We do not mother!" Arthur and Gwaine shouted at the same time.
"This is ridiculous…right Leon?" Arthur asked. Leon straightened up and replied,
"Of course Sire" Arthur caught the laughter in his voice and declared,
"I do not mother!"
"Ok then…you wouldn't mind me staying then" Merlin replied.
"No, Gaius said you needed rest, go" Arthur replied sternly.
"Oh come on! You just said that you don't mother, therefore you shouldn't care what I do" Merlin argued.
"No, but we both want to live" Gwaine added.
"What does that have to do with anything?" Merlin demanded.
"I know Gaius will kill me if something happened to you because I let you overwork yourself…now go!" Arthur informed him.
"You've got to be…ok how am I overworking myself by standing here?" Merlin demanded.
"You're not…but eventually you'll do something stupid and get yourself hurt" Arthur replied.
"I'm fine Arthur!" Merlin shouted.
"Go" Arthur commanded in his no arguing tone.
"So…you're only doing this because Gaius said I needed rest…right?" Merlin asked.
"Gaius knows about head injuries more then I do" Arthur replied.
"So you don't really care about my health?" Merlin asked eyebrows raised.
"Nope" Arthur replied.
"Fine...I'm going…" Merlin sighed in defeat turning on his heels, then promptly 'falling over'.
"Merlin!" Gwaine and Arthur shouted starting to run over, only for Merlin to jump up grinning and said,
"Sure you don't." Arthur glared and snapped,
"MERLIN!" Merlin promptly turned and ran back into the castle, Leon, Percival, and Elyan laughing hysterically. Arthur glared in Merlin's direction for a few more seconds before resuming training. He would get his revenge later, when he was better of course, but Merlin would pay!
