Sadly I don'town Merlin. It belongs to the BBC.
Chapter four is up. It's the last chapter and a long one. (well, longer than the others.)
Thank you for the reviews. I love you all.
Enjoy :D
Over the next few days Merlin had tests done and was given a full bill of health except for the amnesia to which doctors declared will come back with a trigger word, just as Gwen said.
Gwen walked into Merlin's hospital room. "Well, that's my shift finished. I've got your discharge papers signed. Let's get you home."
Merlin smiled. "Thanks Gwen. The sooner I remember you and Morgana the better. I've asked Arthur, my mum, Morgana and Uther and they've all lied to me. Now I'm going to ask you and I hope that you don't lie."
"Ask me what Merlin?"
"Whose Morgana to me? She's seems more upset than anyone else. She's more than my friend. I know it."
"Well if you know that she is more than your friend then that's alright."
"But it's not. She's more than my friend and I want to know."
"I can't tell you Merlin. It's not that I don't want to because I do. It's just something that you will find out on your own, when you remember that is. And you will remember. Just not yet. I mean. I didn't mean 'just not yet' I mean you will soon and I-"
Gwen was cut off when Merlin hugged her. "Merlin?"
Merlin pulled back and smiled at her. "Gwen. I remember you."
Gwen frowned. "How? What was my trigger word? I don't even know what I said, I-" Gwen sighed and looked at Merlin who was still smiling. "I was babbling wasn't I?"
"Yes you were. Now I remember you. I know that you wouldn't lie to your friends. Who's Morgana to me?"
Gwen smiled. "Lets get you home." she said ignoring his question as she picked up his bag that contained some of his clothes and toiletries.
Gwen knocked on the front door of Arthur's house after dropping Merlin off at home. Uther answered the door and saw Gwen stood there. "How many times do I have to tell you? You don't knock and wait for someone to answer the door. You just walk in as if it was your own house and if it's locked then use your key."
Gwen smiled and apologised as Uther stood aside to let her in. Just then Arthur came downstairs. "Guinevere."
"Morgana isn't here is she?"
"No. Why?"
"Merlin remembers me."
"Really? What was your trigger word."
"I babbled." Uther and Arthur laughed.
"Whose going to be the one to tell Morgana that Merlin remembers us all except her?"
"You."
Gwen turned around and Uther and Arthur looked over her shoulder to see Morgana stood on the doorstep. "Morgana. I'm sorry."
"Why are you sorry?" Morgana asked as she walked in, shutting the door behind her.
"Because Merlin remembers all of us but not you."
"It's alright Gwen."
"You're not upset or mad?" Arthur asked.
"Only at myself for not knowing the trigger word." Morgana walked past all of them and went upstairs. Gwen made to follow but Arthur grabbed her arm to stop her. "Leave her be for a while."
Over the next couple of weeks Merlin started to notice that as he got closer to Gwen and Arthur, Morgana started distancing herself from him. Wanting to know answers and determined to know just what Morgana is to him he went upstairs and was about to knock on her door when he heard her talking on the phone.
"What do you mean I can't do it over the phone? Alright I'll be there in about half hour. Merlin? Why do I have to bring Merlin? All I want to do is cancel, why does that have to count for us both coming? I don't care how much money I'll lose. Ugh, fine." Morgana flipped her phone down and stormed out of her room only to collide with Merlin.
"Morgana what are you trying to cancel and what has it got to do with me?"
"Nothing Merlin." she said as she stormed past him and made her way downstairs.
Merlin followed her. "Liar. I heard you on the phone." Morgana stopped halfway down the stairs and turned around to face Merlin who nearly bumped into her. "You were spying on me?" she accused.
"No I wasn't I came to ask you why you have been distancing yourself from me these past few weeks and before I get to ask you I hear you trying to cancel something that involves me and you won't even tell me."
"It's not my fault you can't remember."
"Oh. So it's my fault that I was in a car accident and unconscious for three days then woke up with amnesia forgetting everyone but then remembering everyone except you."
"I didn't say that. Stop twisting things. God whatever did I see in you?"
Merlin frowned. "What's that supposed to mean? Morgana who are you to me? Please?"
"What's going on here?" Morgana turned away from Merlin to see Arthur appear at the bottom of the stairs with Gwen.
"Nothing is going on Arthur."
"Don't lie to him." Merlin looked at Arthur. "I came upstairs to ask her why she is being so distant with me and I overheard her on the phone trying to cancel something that involved me and her."
Arthur looked shocked at Morgana. "Morgana no. Don't go cancelling anything. He will remember."
"He won't Arthur. You know that as well as I do. Who am I kidding by leaving everything and hoping that he'll remember? Me that's who. I can't do it anymore. It hurts too much."
Before anyone could say anything Morgana pushed past Arthur and Gwen and walked out of the front door.
"Arthur?"
Arthur turned and saw Uther stood there. "There is still six weeks left. Follow her and make sure she cancels nothing."
"Yes father."
Arthur walked out of the door followed by Gwen and Merlin. At the end of the driveway they saw that Morgana was heading towards the park. Slowly. They started to follow her.
When they walked onto the park they saw Morgana sat on the swing gently rocking herself backwards and forwards as she had her eyes fixed on her feet.
Merlin told Arthur and Gwen to sit on the bench before walking over to Morgana. "Do you trust me?" he asked standing behind her.
Morgana looked over her shoulder and smiled before holding on to the chains waiting for Merlin to push her.
Arthur looked at Merlin pushing Morgana on the swing then looked at Gwen to see her smiling. Not at Merlin and Morgana, Arthur noticed, but to a group of blokes messing around playing basket ball. "Guinevere?"
Gwen turned and looked at Arthur. "Leon's over there. And he's going to help us help Merlin remember Morgana."
"How?"
"Because it's just came to me what Morgana's trigger word is. Listen."
Leon stopped playing basketball to answer his phone. "Hello? Arthur, how are you mate?"
"Fine. Listen I need your help."
"What with?" Leon stood and listened to what Arthur had to say.
Arthur and Gwen watched as Leon looked up, saw Merlin pushing Morgana on the swing then looked at them. When he spotted them he smiled.
"Right. Hang on." Leon took the phone away from his face. "Hey guys. Stop playing for a minute."
"Why?"
"Because I said so. Line up." Leon's mates looked at each other confused.
"Come on. The sooner we get this done the sooner we can continue to play basket ball."
When they all lined up Leon approached the first one and put his hand on his shoulder and put his phone back to ear. "This one?"
"No."
Leon moved to the next one. "This one?"
"Nope. The second to last one." Arthur replied.
Leon put his phone back in his pocket and moved to the one that Arthur said.
"John mate. I need you to do something. Well. Arthur does."
"What's that?"
When Leon told John, he raised his eyebrows. "I can't do that."
"John, you've got to."
"No I haven't."
Leon sighed. "If you do this. I'll give you my sisters number."
"Ok." He said before making his way over to Morgana.
When he reached them, Merlin stopped pushing Morgana who looked up to see the bloke in front of her. "Yes?" she asked.
"Hey beautiful. Why don't you dump scrawny here and come with me. That way you'll know what a real man looks like."
Morgana stood up. "Excuse me? You think that you're more man then Merlin? And what kind of chat up line was that? Let me give you some advice. Girls with asses like mine do not talk to boys with faces like yours."
Behind Morgana Merlin blinked. He put his hand on Morgana's left shoulder and spun her around to face him. "Morgana. You were going too cancel our wedding?"
"What did Arthur tell you?"
"Arthur told me nothing. You were going to cancel our wedding? We're not getting married for another six weeks. You could have at least gave me a bit more time to remember."
Morgana looked at Merlin. "You remember?"
"Of course I do."
"What was my trigger word?"
"What you just said to him." Merlin answered. Pointing at John who was still standing there watching.
"That must have been your trigger word. You said it to me about five times before you finally agreed to go on a date with me."
Morgana laughed as she threw her arms around Merlin.
John looked over at Arthur who started laughing. "Thanks mate. You can go back to your game now." he yelled.
Morgana tightened her grip on Merlin. "I've missed you."
"I've been right here."
"It's not the same."
Merlin pulled back. "Still want to cancel our wedding?"
"No I don't."
"Good." he said before leaning down to kiss her. When he pulled away he took her hand and started to lead her off the park.
Arthur and Gwen stood up. "Merlin, Morgana. Where are you going?"
"I've remembered Arthur. I remember everything. So we're going home."
Arthur frowned. "You're taking Morgana home because you remember?"
"Yes. I remember. And now I have remembered I am taking her home because since we've been going out we haven't been without for longer than four days. It's been four weeks. I'm taking her home right now."
Arthur pulled a face causing the other three to laugh. "Ugh. That's my sister. Did you have to tell me why you are taking her home."
"No. I didn't have to tell you. But you asked. I'll leave you to tell Uther that I remember Morgana. See you both later." Merlin put his arm around Morgana's waist. "Come on babe." Morgana smiled put her arm around Merlin as he lead her off the park.
I hope you've enjoyed reading this as much as I've enjoyed writing it.
