Dreams of a child 2/2

Arthur watched as the little Merlin cradled his dead sister in his arms, her blood covering them both.
"Ruby, Ruby please wake up," Merlin begged as he pressed his head into her chocolate coloured hair. Then Merlin's father stormed over with the sword he had just used to kill Ruby and grabbed hold of little Merlin's coal hair.

"Your turn," he muttered dragging little Merlin into the lake, smiling as little Merlin tried to get free of his fathers grip.

"Daddy please." Merlin sobbed looking around for help but ending up looking at the body of his dead sister lying in the grass.
"No," his father simply muttered before shoving Merlin into the deep area of the lake....

"Arthur! Wake up!" The angel's voice whispered. No wait, it was his adult Merlin's voice.
"Uh?" He asked trying not to look just how scared he was. How could his gentle Merlin of been through so much and still be so, so, innocent and kind?

"You had another bad dream." Merlin smiled trying to calm him, "Are you ever going to tell what they about?"
Arthur paused, was this is big chance? He could have just asked Merlin straight about his magic, his sister and his father... No, it wasn't the time.

"Maybe later," he winked before getting up, still shaking from his dream. Not only had he seen it all happen but he had felt little Merlin's fear and sadness. To be perfectly honest he still saw that sadness in Merlin's eyes when he thought nobody was looking.

That evening Merlin babbled something about his magic. Arthur simply laughed and said that he knew.
"How?" Merlin asked still stunned.
"My dreams," Arthur shrugged, "I see stuff that usually happens."
"So you're a seer?"
"Yes, the son of Uther Pendragon has magical gifs," Arthur said grinning.
"What else have you seen about me?" he was getting worried, sweat forming on his brow and neck.

"I've seen Ruby, your father and your fifth birthday." Arthur swallowed walking closer to Merlin.
"How come you haven't told anyone about me?" Merlin looked incredibly confused.
"Because, Merlin, I love you and I would never let anyone harm you." Arthur added a silent again.

Before Merlin could think Arthur's lips were on his, gentle and loving. Suddenly he realized it was always meant to be like this, they were like two sides of the same coin.
