Morgana, unannounced, walked into Arthur's chamber with a smug look on her face."Your an idiot you know." She said in a serious tone. She slammed the doors shut. Arthur was wet from almost being drowned by the love of his life Sophia. She looked around his room, a mess, as always.
How...like Arthur. She thought. Clothing on the floor, mud and dirt, the bed not even made! Discusting how could one person live in this mess of a room! No I wouldn't even call it a room more like a second stable, but exclusively for Arthur! She looked around for somewhere to sit without sitting on something...discussing. She choose the bed... but not the best choice. The floor was cleaner then his bed...

Arthur was still drenched from what he still considered to be unbelievable! First, he ran off to elope with some random woman that he barley knew; no matter how beautiful she was. Second, Merlin had managed to knock him out! He wasn't sure which part was more shocking. All he knew was that he had a massive headache and he still couldn't quite piece together what had happened. He needed to fill in the blanks, for he hated having no recollection. He was lying on his bed, not sleeping, but just laying there with his eyes closed.
Unfortunately, the relaxing silence did not last long for he heard a very familiar -- and angry voice -- and a large slam. Arthur made a face, waiting a few moments before sitting up. He groaned as he was forced to open his eyes, and saw Morgana standing there. "Don't bother knocking . . . come right in, oh and do not concern yourself with my splitting headache . . . go right ahead and slam that door as hard as you can." Arthur's voice was bitterly sarcastic as he fought the urge to lay back down. She came and sat on the bed and so . . . he had to sit up too. This caused Arthur to groan again. She had that look about her. That look that said he was about to get lectured about something. Then again, he should have expected it since she had warned him about Sofia, and while it had apparently been his choice to run off with her . . . Morgana was . . . right. Great. The I told you so was sure to come soon.

"I don’t think that me slamming the door is the cause of your headache." She hissed at him more worried then anything. "Where is Merlin anyway? Shouldn't have he been cleaning your room or something that would help you right now? Not wasting his time, I would hope." She turned with an eye brow raised in question. Arthur had a confused look on his face as if he was thinking, there was an awkward silence. She broke it. "Arthur, what do you remember?" She stood up and began to walk around his room picking things up and cleaning his room, not being able to stay in such a mess.
Poor Merlin, having a cranky Arthur to look after. "I did tell you about her after all. Did you listen? No. You decided to listen to your heart and go with her to be drowned! What are we going to do with you?" She smiled at him, then picked up a key off the floor. "Really Arthur?" She threw it at him. "You should be more careful, about where you leave things and you should listening to me more." She looked around the room, even just her moving things off the floor had made his room look better. "Now, up off the bed! You could use some fresh air!" She opened his window.

When Morgana was talking, lecturing him away, all he heard was blah blah blah blah . . . blah! Arthur was in no mood for this, though he knew it was inevitable. Sooner or later he would have to hear her rant on about what he shouldn't have done, and as always, raise the topic of his room. "OW!" he exclaimed, exaggerated the pain that he felt when the key hit him right between his eyes. He tossed in on the bed and just watched her, while he sat, she was moving around. "Morgana . . . stop . . . . fidgeting!" His voice was annoyed. Besides, she should not have to clean his room; thats what his idiot servant was for.
"Could you stop moving and talking for one second, Please." The that polite word was said with more sarcasm than anything for he was not indeed in a good mood. He would have to face his father soon, and justify his foolish actions. That was going to be a fun conversation. He would make Merlin help him out with that one. Arthur lay back down on the bed, no longer sitting up, but rather, staring at his ceiling. "There is no rush to clean my room, besides, a little mess adds to the charm of it, and I happen to be very charming."

"And Very wet." She smiled at this statement. "But you might not be wet if you had listened to me!" She scolded, then pause to change her tactics. "Arthur, at the least, get into some dry clothes. You might feel a little better." She would yell at him later, she wanted to get somewhat more of a reaction out of him, to get her full satisfaction, but for now, all that mattered was that he was comfortable and not dead. She wanted to help, this was the one time she could help him Then later rub it in his face that the Prince needed her help...Arthur was always full of pride and she liked to brake it down.
"You can't just mope around all afternoon Arthur, It's not good for your health. Nor is ignoring me!" Morgana looked at him laying on his bed staring up at the ceiling."Arthur!" She hissed at him to get his attention.

She was not going to stop until he listened to her. But like an overgrown child, he was still trying to ignore her words, though he knew she was right. He would feel far more comfortable if he got out of these drenched clothes, and besides, he was making his bed soaked as well. He would have to get Merlin to change his sheets later. And wash his clothes. And . . . And . . . Arthur could not think with Morgana's voice in the background. "I should have let myself drown, at least I would not have heard this incessant nagging!" Though he mumbled the first half of that sentence, he purposely raised his voice when saying the last two words so that if she did not hear the first part, then she would most certainly hear the last part of it.
"Don't you have anything better to do anyway, like brush your hair? Or do your make up? Really Morgana, if you are truly this bored, there are many things to do around the castle. You don't need to start with my chamber." Arthur liked his mess. He practically took pride in it. "Besides, you will be depriving Merlin of the pleasure of cleaning my room." He knew Merlin hated it because no matter what, it would always end up a mess again . . . sometimes, less than a day later.

"What? You'd rather have me brush my hair then care about you?" She hissed. "I am not nagging, nor do I think that living in this, mess, is acceptable, I wouldn't even let the dead rest here, Let alone you!" She looked at him with caring eyes. "Also I don't think that is▬is a pleasure for anyone to clean! You should learn how to treat people well and not let your pride get in the way!" She huffed and crossed her arms.
"Not only, do I think that, but, I don't think you even care about anyone else but yourself! And don't you dare say that you care about each and every person here in Camelot, you don't even know them! I only▬" She inhaled then changed the subject slightly."If you don't want me to care about you, could you just please spare me the snide comments Arthur." She said the last few word slowly and meaningfully.

Arthur knew by her words and tone that he had taken the joking a little too far. He knew she cared about him, but maybe she was a lot more concerned about what had happened then he realized. And it was for good reason; she had a right to be. He quickly got off the bed, ignoring his pounding head. He could not hear her say such things; especially when it minimized his affection and care for her, and his people, the people of Camelot. He quickly went up to her and put his hands on her shoulders in an effort to calm her down. "Morgana, you know I care about you a great deal, and I am grateful for the concern you have for me. But you never need to be worried. I've lived this long, despite all the foolish things I've done," he said, with a bit of a smile, trying to alleviate the tension.
"And you also know I care about the people of Camelot a great deal. How can you even say that I don't?" He did not ask the question in an angry way, it was more hurt than anything else, for he tried to show how much he really cared about the citizens of this kingdom. He could not fully show that however, since he did not have absolute authority. "Besides, you know how much trouble I have verbally expressing my care for others. I speak it in actions, not words." He really hoped that was not how she saw him. He did not want her to have that sort of impression of him . . . to be a selfish, insensitive man.

She shrugged his hands off her shoulders."You sure aren't acting like you have affection for any one but yourself Arthur." She was hurt, even though she knew him to not carefully choose his words, he would just say them. She walked over to the window she had opened, his room was hotter then before, hotter with tensions, tensions that wouldn't let up.
"I shouldn't have said anything about how much you care for Camelot. I know that you love this Kingdom, more then your own life at times." She smiled unevenly. "And, I don't think you would have made it without some help from us Arthur. You didn't do everything on your own." She looked out the window, letting the slight breeze hit her face.
"Oh and Arthur, you need to check up on how highly you think of yourself. I say this because I care for you and you keep my head on the ground. I should do the same for you, no?" She looked back at him and the wind danced through her hair and she smiled a slightly mocking smile.

Arthur was surprised by her comments, but he was not going to pass them off. He was going to stand up . . . both of their stubborn tendencies was perhaps was caused them to get in so many arguments. "I never said I built this kingdom on my own; I would never presume to say such a thing. I'm aware that my father, and all the knights who fought for him built this kingdom; that every nobleman, every citizen, every peasant, they all have built this kingdom. I would never take my position for granted and assume that I am responsible for Camelot being what it is today." If there was one thing Arthur was passionate about, it was Camelot.
How highly he thought of himself. Arthur knew that he acted more cocky than he should . . . but it was a cover. Deep down, he was rather insecure. But what kind of people would follow a leader who had no confidence in his skills? He had to compensate for his deep rooted insecurities otherwise, people would not trust him. "I do not think highly of myself," he mumbled, though it was loud enough for her to hear. "To be a Prince, and eventually a king, a certain degree of . . . confidence is required. I have to act the role I'm playing Morgana. Otherwise, people will not take me seriously, and will not respect me as a future king." He did not want to talk about the deeper reason, about how he always thought to be a disappointment to his father. No. Arthur did not talk about his feelings.

"Oh really now?" She asked with a smile. "It's not really Confidence, I think It's more on how you treat people, Arthur." She took a deep breath in and crossed her arms. She looked at him with that look of Stop putting self pity upon your self that is my job, look. "And anyways Arthur, we all make mistakes. Just like you falling in love." She teased with a huge smile across her face.
"Oh Arthur. Cheer up! Your safe, almost dry and back here in Camelot with the people who care about you." Namely her, She was more then happy to be teasing him and not a his funeral or seeing his dead body being brought back from that lake. She walked over to him and patted him on the shoulder, Still wet and she looked around his room, it was still and forever will be a mess.

"Well your certainly doing an excellent job of cheering me up," he muttered sarcastically, though loud enough for her to hear it. How had he been in love?! . . . More importantly, how could he not remember being in love! It didn't make sense! Arthur was not the kind of person who just fell for someone that quickly, and would run away and elope with her. Well, apparently he was according to what Merlin told him. It was just all too bizarre. "That was probably the biggest mistake I have ever made in my life!" he said, referring to the bit about falling in love. "Thank god it did not go any further then . . . infatuation." He still could not believe he had done something like that. It just did not make sense! Arthur knew himself better than that.
"Besides, don't you have anything better to do than to mock me for what I did?" He asked, making a face at her. Though he never shunned her company -- he always loved it -- he was just teasing her back, as he had nothing else to go on right now and clearly, he was the butt of the joke and he imagined he would be for quite some time.

"No, not really." Morgana smiled at him mockingly. She truly didn't have much to do today. She had worried about, gone for a walk over to his bedroom and worried some more. "Arthur, you know I told you not to go with her. Or have I told you that already?" She had forgotten if she had. If she had done so then, she didn't really mind rubbing it in, if she hadn't now was the time to rub it in. She cared about him, and she wanted him to get it through his skull that he should listen to reason more often.
"And you are right, you should never fall in love Arthur. You wouldn't be as fun to tease." She smirked at him. Listen to my advice Arthur. Do not fall in love. She smiled inwardly before she laughed out loud. She was laughing so hard at her own little joke that she was crying.

Arthur rolled his eyes. He did not like being told that someone else was right and that he was wrong. He had his pride after all. "Yes yes, you've only told me over a hundred times!" Alright, so that as a bit of an exaggeration but still! He just hated it when someone knew better than him. If it was the other way around, of course he would be doing the same . . . in fact, he would probably be rubbing it in the person's face even more. Falling in love -- as in, really falling in love and not like acting like a fool in love who doesn't remember any of the events that occurred.
"Morgana, what are you going to do when I do really fall in love?" He smirked as he asked the question, and even more so as the thought entered his mind. He had never been really serious about anyone before -- except for apparently this random woman who's name he barley remembered. "Try not to act too jealous in front of her. I'm rather certain that your nagging would scare her away." He said, continuing to tease Morgana.

"I'll find something. Don't you worry Arthur." She smiled as she wiped away one of her tears. Morgana would be happy for who ever falls in love with Arthur. Any one would be lucky to have him. She couldn't help but smile at Arthur, she should be rubbing it in that she was right but Arthur had gone through enough for the time being. She sat down on his bed once again, her feet began to hurt her.
"Are you feeling any better?" She was guessing not, but she was talking to Arthur, He could be feeling anything right now! It had only been a few moments before that his head had a splitting head ache. so the odds were that he still wasn't feeling well.

Arthur wondered who that would be, and he was rather certain his father wondered to. He would have high expectations, thats for sure. Oh well. He still had time to find someone, Arthur Pendragon was in no dire rush. "I am actually. Despite a bit of a migraine, which is all thanks to you," he said jokingly making a bit of a face. He was glad that their conversation had become less intense. He really did not like arguing with Morgana, well, arguing about serious things.
"And yourself? Have you finally cooled down?" He asked, wondering if there was any more yelling and told-you-so's in the near future.

"Oh then pardon me for talking." Morgana smiled at Arthur with a smug look on her face. She crossed her arms over her cheast. "Well, I am somewhat better, but things might pop up." She said, now grinning. Behind that grin was wonder. What was she going to do? Uther must be expecting her to take an interest in some man. Not that he wanted to get rid of her, no Uther would never want that.
She talked over to where Arthur was, and touched his shoulder. "You should get dressed. If you don't you could get a cold." Morgana said mater of factly, taking her mind away from this uncomfortable thought.

"Well next time warn me when they do. I don't think I could handle another unexpected outburst of you barging in." He still felt too lazy to move, and so when she suggested he get dressed in proper clothing, he just made a face. "I'll be fine. If I get a cold, it'll be all that idiot Merlin's fault." Even though his servant saved him from marrying a random woman . . . he still gave him a hard time.
"What have you been doing all this time? Other than missing me of course," he said, with a cheeky smile and a cocky tone. Despite his lack of energy, he began to head over to his cabinet and dig around for a clean shirt while he spoke to Morgana.

"Why I have been brushing my hair." She said, giving a reply to his comment early on in this conversation. Morgana rolled her eyes before saying: "What else would I be doing?" She had that same tone and attitude of cockiness in her voice just to bug Arthur. Being back to normal was all good and fun, but some times Arthur needed to take things seriously. She was looking at the ground when her mind came across this thought, but she held back the urge to tell him. "I promise not to burst into your room as long as you don't do anything stupid." Which she knew could be a challenge.
"Well how do you feel now?" She asked with a smile across her face as he was now in a clean shirt. For once he had listened to her.

Arthur smirked at her reply, as he knew well that it was one of the many ways he teased her. "That certainly wouldn't surprise me. You probably spend hours on it. I suppose the only other thing you would be doing is trying on different outfits all day since women are fickle like that and can never decide on one thing." Again, mocking. But it was his way of showing love to someone. Sometimes, the more he teased them, the more he cared for them. Merlin was a great example of this. "I never do anything stupid! Just, things that not everyone understands," he argued, not wanting to admit that his actions were in fact stupid.
"I'm feeling much better," he began to say, wondering if he should ask her this next question. It did not take long for him to decide that he should. "Is my father terribly angry at me for my actions?" He really just wanted to know so that he would have an idea of how Uther would be when he saw him. Was he going to yell at him? Was he going to give him the silent treatment? Was he going to give him a lecture? Throw him in the dungeon? . . . Or some sort of strange combination of all punishments? Arthur wanted to know what was in store so that he could start preparing explaining himself to the king, which was definitely something he was not at all looking forward to. Uther had been furious enough when Arthur suggested the idea of marrying Sophia . . . he could only imagine how much more angry he was going to be when he discovered that Arthur nearly eloped with her . . .if he did in fact know. Maybe by some miracle, this was kept secret from him . . . . . . .but Arthur highly doubted it.
