Title: Rivers, Storms, Nurses & Patients
Fandom: Merlin
Pairing: Arthur/Morgana
Summary: I wanted ArMor Nurse Morgana Smut but this is the best i got... the muses somehow got bashful when it came to details *shakes head* honestly
A/N: i own nothing of course because relaly if i did the travesty known as season 2 would have never occured!
“I cannot believe you did that.” Morgana exclaimed as she climbed from the river completely dripping wet, the sky above them rumbled with thunder.
“No thanks necessary.” Arthur said equally as wet.
“Thanks? Why would i thank you?” Morgana asked.
“I saved your life, risking my own in the process.” Arthur said, Morgana pulled a face.
“You shoved me in the river in the first place.” She protested.
“That animal was about to trample you.” Arthur said distastefully.
“It was a horse Arthur they would have been afraid of the starting storm.” Morgana said.
“So?” Arthur asked. “That doesn’t mean i should let it attack you, we shouldn’t have taken them out, they’re too wild and much too dangerous, once we get back to the castle i’m going to have them broken in.”
“Where are they?” Morgana asked and she and Arthur looked around the forest clearing.
“I don’t know they must have spooked and run off, once we get back to the castle i’ll send for some men to look for them.” Arthur said and Morgana sighed.
“You didn’t tie them up before you jumped in the river?” she asked as it started to rain.
“I was kind of preoccupied.” Arthur said crossing his arms. “You could have died, the currents in that river can pull a man under and never let him resurface.”
“I would have been fine i’m a perfectly capable swimmer but now we’ve lost our way home.” Morgana said angrily.
“We’re not too far away, we’ll just have to walk.” Arthur said the sky rumbled with thunder again and lightning crashed across the sky, Morgana jumped slightly and Arthur smirked, Morgana saw him and glared.
“It took me by surprise that’s all.” She said quickly, she took a deep breath ready to tell him off some more when Arthur grabbed her and kissed her, effectively silencing her. Morgana was surprised for a moment but then relaxed and kissed him back. They pulled away.
“Don’t think this means you’re forgiven.” Morgana warned and Arthur grinned.
“Wouldn’t dream of it.” he said as the thunder clapped again Morgana jumped again and Arthur held her tighter, the rain was falling even heavier now.
“Let’s get back to the castle, i don’t want you getting sick.” Arthur said and Morgana rolled her eyes but smiled, as they walked back to the castle Arthur kept an arm around her and Morgana didn’t pull away.
Three days later and the storm and river swim had made someone catch a chill but it wasn’t Morgana, it was Arthur and Morgana had a lot of fun teasing him about what a bad patient he was though he refused to admit he was sick.
“Come on Arthur you’ve got stay in bed.” Morgana said but Arthur still pulled the blankets back and stood.
“Why? i’m not sick.” He protested. Morgana raised as eyebrow and Arthur rolled his eyes and pouted.
“If i stay in bed would you stay in it with me?” he asked smiling.
“Nurses really shouldn’t fraternise with their patients.” Morgana smiled.
“I’m not sick.” Arthur protested again sighing walking across the room.
“No?” Morgana asked tilting her head. “Then what would you need a personal nurse like me for?” Arthur blinked and then realised what was going on and grinned, Morgana had appeared in front of him waiting for his response.
“Maybe i do have a slight chill.” he admitted.
“Only one cure for that.” Morgana smirked putting a hand on Arthur’s chest and walking him backwards.
“And what’s that?” Arthur asked as he stopped with the bed right behind him, Morgana smiled.
“Bed rest.” She informed him and gave Arthur a gentle push sending him down onto the mattress behind him.
“Is that all?” Arthur asked resting on his elbows and looking up at her, Morgana grinned.
“Maybe an exam from your personal nurse could help.” She said pulling her dress up slightly so she was able to climb onto the bed and straddle Arthur who grinned.
“Oh i think i definitely need one of those.” he smirked pulling Morgana down to him.
“So you admit you’re sick?” Morgana asked hovering above him.
“It can’t hurt to have you examine me and just to be safe i should check you over to.” Arthur said.
“And why’s that?” Morgana asked smiling.
“Well you did fall into the river-” Arthur began.
“Fall into the river?” Morgana asked pulling back slightly.
“You would have been trampled if i hadn’t saved you.” Arthur said.
“If hadn’t distracted me i would have been on the horse.” Morgana exclaimed.
“And you would have been thrown from the horse, they weren’t safe.” Arthur said Morgana sat up and Arthur moved with her.
“Regardless of how or why you ended up in the river the point is that you were in the river and the storm with me and we don’t want you getting sick.” He explained quickly and Morgana shrugged.
“Sounds reasonable.” She said leaning back over him.
“Sensible.” Arthur agreed glad to have stopped the argument.
“Responsible even.” Morgana agreed and finally leant down to kiss him.
“I think i’m going to like this exam.” Arthur mumbled against her lips and Morgana laughed.
“I don’t think that counts as bed rest.” Morgana smiled as she lay next to Arthur the heavy blankets kicked onto the floor to lie with their clothes, only the sheet lay over them.
“I’m in bed.” Arthur pointed out.
“You’re not being very restful.” Morgana said rolling onto her side to look at him.
“I didn’t hear you complaining.” Arthur said smirking and Morgana rolled her eyes but blushed slightly.
“No but that doesn’t mean it was a good idea.” She said.
“It was a good idea, the best idea in fact.” Arthur said.
“Why doesn’t it surprise me to hear you say that?” Morgana asked smiling.
“If all nurses were like you,” Arthur began but the look Morgana gave him made him give up on sharing that particular thought.
“Bed rest is meant to be restful.” Morgana said. “And you have not been resting at all.”
“I’m not alone in that though am i?” Arthur asked grinning as he pulled Morgana close to him and rolled from his side to his back pulling Morgana along to lie on top of him.
“You’re right maybe i should go, leave you to get some sleep.” She said smiling as she slipped off him setting her feet on the floor.
“I’m wide awake and you’re not going anywhere.” Arthur said securing his hold around her waist. Morgana twisted to look at him.
“You’ll have to make staying worth my while.” she challenged him Arthur growled playfully and pulled her back down to the bed, flipping himself around so he was leaning over her.
“Well?” she asked grinning as Arthur starred down at her. “I’m waiting, make a move or let me go.”
“You’re not going anywhere.” Arthur said and leant down to kiss her.
