Gwaine never panicked. He was well known for his laid-back attitude. He managed to stay calm in almost every situation, even when everyone else had lost it.

But there were exceptions to every rule…

Gwaine was pacing back and forth and Percival was starting to get fed up.

“Gwaine, can’t you calm down?”

“But what if Merlin doesn’t come? What if he had changed his mind?”

“Why would he have changed his mind? You are together for a long time and he loves you!”

“But I’m not a nobleman… I mean I am but I left everything behind. He could have so much better!”

“Gwaine, don’t sell yourself short! You have more value than most noblemen and Merlin knows that!”

Gwaine groaned.

“And what if Arthur had changed his mind and doesn’t want to allow it anymore?”

“Gwaine, this is getting out of hand! Arthur won’t cancel everything now!”

“But…”

Percival was known for his composure, but this was getting too much even for him!

“Wait here!”

Percival went to the room on the other side of the hallway where the other Knights were getting ready.

“Elyan? Can you come for a minute?”

“Yes… Is there a problem?”

“Not if we can avoid it. But Gwaine is panicking.”

“Gwaine? Really?”

Percival nodded and led Elyan to Gwaine who was still pacing and pulling on his hair.

“Can you slap him? If I do it myself, I may damage him and Merlin won’t be happy about that…”

“A slap? It’s that bad?”

Percival nodded eagerly so Elyan came in front of Gwaine who had barely registered the presence of the other night. Elyan stopped him and slapped him.

“What? Are you mad?” Gwaine cried.

“He hasn’t but it seems like it was the only solution to make you come to your senses!” Percival explained. “So now, brush your hair and we’ll go to the throne room.”

“But…”

Without even a look from Percival, Elyan lifted his hand again.

“Alright, alright…I’m brushing my hair!”

***

In the end, Gwaine had no reason to panic. Neither Arthur nor Merlin had changed their mind and was now the happy husband of the royal Sorcerer.
