LIAM'S POV
Jessica keeps having nightmare more and more as her pregnancy advances. I am scared that something is going to happen to her, I am scared that she will go through post partum depression. I need to do something about it. I need to know how to help her and how to protect them.
" What is happening with Jessica is normal or something?" I asked Molly since she is a nurse and she's seen a lot
" I don't know how to help you. I can't help you with her night mares. But let me do some research and I will get back to you. By the way... Dr. Brett needs a consult in exam room 34." She said smiling
" Thank you, Molls. I am in your debt." I said making my way to exam room 34.
MOLLY'S POV
After Liam asked me about Jessica's night mares, I realized that there is only one person that can help him. So I paged Joel.
" Are you ok?" He asked worried
" It's Liam. He is really worried about Jess. You need to tell him, Joel." I said holding his hand.
" I can't. He needs to remember by himself."
" Joel... he needs to be prepared, in case Olivia's vision comes true. You, we need all the help we can get. We still have two months, but...." I said to him trying to make him see reason
" You are right. I will talk to him tonight. I love you. I am going in the OR now. See you later, love." He said kissing me.
My shift was finally done and I am so glad to be home. My feet are killing me.
" Molls? Can I talk to you?" I hear my brother that I didn't even know was home.
" Sure." I replied inviting him next to me on the couch.
" I am in love." He said blushing " I am so in love with Olivia, I've never been in love like this. I could give my life for her." He said
" I know. She loves you too. But I sense there is a but coming. What's up brother?" I asked
" I think that she is hiding something from me. I don't know what is it, or why she doesn't trust me.... Molly... I- I don't know what to do..."
" Talk to her. Tell her what you feel. Communicate. It's going to be alright." I said and he got up and left to see his girlfriend.
OLIVIA'S POV
Today was a crazy day. I had two surgeries that weren't easy and patients kept on coming to the clinic. In addition to this Enzo had a day of and I had to teach some classes too. I was about to leave the clinic when I saw Enzo entering the hallway.
" Hello. What are you doing here? " I asked my handsome boyfriend
" We need to talk. I need to talk to you, Liv." He said with a grave tone worrying me.
" Are you ok? Sure, let's go into my office." I said turning back.
" I love you, Olivia. Like I've never loved any girl in my life. I love you more than I love my life." He said making my eyes water
" Enzo... I love you too." I replied smiling.
" I asked you to talk because I feel that you are keeping something from me and it's destroying me. It's-I "
" I can't talk about this here. Can we go to my place? " I asked him taking his hand into mine.
" Okay. Sure."
The drive home was quiet and I could feel the tension building up around us.
" I know that you will think that I am crazy and that I am lying but everything I am going to tell you it's true." I said pouring some coffee.
" I don't care how insane everything sounds, or how crazy you really are, I just want to know the truth. I don't want secrets. They make me feel like you don't love me."
" I do love you. That's why I kept this a secret. To protect you. I was going to tell you, because everything is about to change, and I am sure that you would have find out one way or another." I said sheading a tear.
" You scare me, love." He hugged me
" I am fine, it's just that I never told anyone this, I mean you are the first boy that I love to find this out. But I trust you Enzo. With everything." I said kissing him
I told him everything. I told him I was born fifty years ago, like Joel is actually Merlin and actually my father.
" Enzo? Are you still here? Breathe please! Say something!" I said scared
" Ok." He gasped " You were right. This is more than insane." He laughed
" I told you." I said getting an idea; " Let me show you." I took his head between my hands and focused on my story.
I showed him my life and bits of my fathers, trying to show him that I wasn't completely crazy.
" Olivia.... I am so sorry... I am sorry I ever doubted you." He said kissing me
" It's ok. Promise me that you will be careful with this. We have enemies and war in coming. I will never forgive myself is something happens to you." I replied
" Your secret is safe with me. I will be ok. We will be ok as long as we are together. Does my sister know?" He asked
" Yes. Don't be mad at her. It wasn't-"
" I am not. It's funny. she's your step-mother." Enzo was laughing with tears.
" I guess she is." I replied
A weight was lifted from my heart once I shared my secret with the man I love. But there was a part that I left aside, in order to protect his feelings. My relationship with Arthur. I couldn't bring myself together to tell him...
JOEL'S POV
"Liam!!! Liam!!! Are you free tonight? After your shift?" I asked my friend with the first chance I got
"Um- I don't know. It's important?" He asked hesitating
" Yes. It is." I replied serious
***
" Liam. You need to listen very carefully. What I am about to tell you it's insane and it's going to make no sense. But it's important that you listen till the end and only after I am done you can speak. Promise?" I said
" Okay..." He was giving me a side eye
" You are the reincarnation of a Sir Knight from Arthur Pendragon's time. Your real name is Gwaine." I begun.
After some time where I barely kept his attention it was time for him to speak.
" You were right. This doesn't make any sense. I am being punked?" He said getting up
" I am telling the truth, Gwaine!"
"My name is Liam! He screamed and added " I can't do this." He ran out the door
This is exactly what I was fearing. This is why I didn't want to force things on him. He could get in trouble.
LIAM'S POV
Joel must be on drugs. Yes. That's the only logical explanation. He's crazy and on drugs.
"Liam Cooper? " I see a very tall, massive guy who came out of nowhere standing in front of me.
" Yes. And you are?" I asked the stranger
" I am sorry."
That was the last thing I saw last night. His fist making contact with my head...
