A/N: Drabble and angst. Fun.
Setting: None in particular. Probably late in the show.
Description: Arthur wants to know why Merlin didn't tell him about the magic, and Merlin surprises himself with his answer.
Disclaimer: I only own my poor sense of humor.
"Why didn't you tell me?" It's a quiet question, soft spoken; a sharp contrast to all the yelling that had taken place in the most recent moments. When Merlin opens his mouth to answer, he's expecting all sorts of things to come out.
I was afraid.
Uther would have killed me.
You might have killed me, or at least banished me.
But what actually comes out, shocks the young warlock. And... it breaks Arthur's heart.
"Because anyone who's ever found out is dead. And I couldn't handle losing you too." Arthur paused for a moment, before wrapping his arms around Merlin in a tight embrace.
"I won't let that happen."
