Blissfully Unaware

Prompt: 'A game of 20 questions that ends with “Can I kiss you?” Requested By: Anonymous (Mystery Prompt Pink 19)

Plot: While making your way back to Camelot, you and Gwaine try to make the time go by faster by learning more about one another. Gwaine uses this, to try to find out if you share his feelings.

Pairing: Gwaine x GN!Reader

Warnings: A "detailed" kiss or two, but that's about it.

Words: 1.5k

As you looked out over the valley, you sighed "Well, either we missed them already, or we're ahead of them."

Gwaine stood beside you as he looked around. "We can't wait around for them, we should just continue on our way. We'll meet back at Camelot either way."

Nodding, you turned and looked ahead into the heavy wooded area "I really wish we hadn't lost our horses."

Gwaine nodded as he began to walk ahead "But at least we still have our legs."

You let out a soft scoff, "Might not by the time we make it back to Camelot."

Gwaine smiled as he looked back at you for a moment. He had been dying for a few moments to be alone with you, and now that you had gotten split off from the group, he had more time than he expected.

It felt like almost too much time, as Gwaine felt an uncommon anxiousness in his gut. It was not common that someone made him nervous, but you most certainly did.

"We could talk, to make the time go by faster." Gwaine suggested, as he stopped to wait for you to catch up to him.

"Talk about what?"

He shrugged lightly. "Tell me about yourself."

You let out a soft laugh that made his heart flutter. "We've known each other for months now Gwaine."

He grinned. "True, but that does not mean I know everything about you. I only know the basics, tell me more."

You opened your mouth before you shook your head with an uncertain laugh. "I don't know what to tell you, it's all pretty boring."

"Oh, I doubt that." He said with a soft smile.

You smile in return, feeling your heart hammer in your chest. You weren't expecting to be alone with Gwaine, and now he wanted to know all about you? You had never felt more unsure of yourself.

"How about this, I will just ask you questions, and you answer."

"Alright, but do I get to ask you questions too?"

He nodded "Of course."

"Alright then." You smiled, wondering where this conversation would end up.

"Okay, let me see," he mumbled "Why did you pick Camelot? Of all the placed you could have moved to, why here?"

You thought about your response for a moment, as you and Gwaine headed deeper into the woods, and closer to Camelot.

--------

As the mid-day sun hung over head, you and Gwaine sat by a small river, taking a break from your long venture back to Camelot.

"So, you've been in Camelot a lot longer that I have" Gwaine said as he sat down beside you. "But I hardly see you with anyone but the Knights, Merlin, or Gwen."

"Yes? And?"

"Is there no one else in your life?"

You felt an uneasy tightness in your chest at this, but you smiled casually. "Is that not enough people?"

He smiled and shook his head. "I meant romantically."

You felt a bit of tension rise between you, but felt it was surely one sided. You shook your head as you pulled your water canister from your bag.

"Ah. Well, no, there is no one romantically in my life." Standing, you began to head to the river, unaware of the hopeful gaze on Gwaine's face.

"And no one, headed, in that direction then?" Gwaine asked, watching your profile.

You shrugged your head a bit, "I don't know. I tend to be 'blissfully unaware' of that sort of thing, or at least Gwen says so."

Gwaine let out a soft laugh, and you felt your heart beating heavily. As curiosity set heavy on your mind, you asked softly, while trying to sound as casual as you could.

"What about you? Who are you with?"

He shook his head. "No one."

You looked at him with a bit of surprise, he was unable to miss. He rose a brow a bit. "I know I'm labeled the palace flirt, but that doesn't mean I'm always in a relationship."

You let out a soft chuckle. "I thought you liked that label."

He shrugged softly. "I didn't mind it at first, but, I don't want it to become my reputation. The person I have actual feelings for might not think to kindly of me if it is, they might not trust me."

You felt your heart sink a bit as you turned, looking out at the forest, not wanting Gwaine to see your face.

"So you like someone then? In Camelot?"

Gwaine stared at you, wondering if that was disappointment in your voice or if he was just imagining it. "Yes, I do."

"What are they like?"

Gwaine's lip curled up a bit before he spoke. "They're amazing. They're smart, witty, talented, too kind for their own good really. Attractive, more than they're willing to admit. They're much too good for me, really."

You looked down at your feet but smiled softly. "They almost sound made up."

He let out a soft laugh. "I would think so too if I didn't know them. I don't think they realize half those things about themselves though."

You wondered who it was he was thinking of. Someone you knew? It didn't really sound like it. Maybe it was someone he met in the town.

"Sounds like you really do like them."

Was that a hint of jealousy? No. Surely you understood he was talking about you by now.

"I do. Very much."

His voice had grown softer, and you felt a jealousy in your chest, but you tried to push it away. You should feel happy for him. Happy that he has found someone who makes him feel that way, even if it couldn't be you.

Swallowing down your feelings, you turned back around and made your way over.

"So, how long have you been with them? Do the other Knights know about them?"

Gwaine frowned as he watched you set your water down, before you grabbed a rag and went back to the water. You really didn't realize he had been talking about you. He almost laughed.

"I'm not with them."

"Oh." You looked back at him, clearly confused. Wiping your face and hands with the damp rag, you steadied your voice. "So, do they know? How you feel?"

He shook his head softly as he watched you closely. "I don't think so."

"Whats stopping you from telling them?"

He repressed a smile as he cleared his throat and began to stand up. "I've tried, but I don't think they understood what I was saying. Or, they just didn't understand how it could be them I had feelings for."

'Sounds familiar' you thought quickly as you stood. "Maybe they need a more obvious sign."

You mentally kicked yourself for encouraging him, all you were doing was pushing him further away from you.

Gwaine made his way towards you, "An obvious sign? Like a kiss?"

You almost choked, "Uhm, I suppose that would be obvious" you let out a short laugh. "But, you can't just march up to them and kiss them out of the blue."

Gwaine stepped up to you. "So I ask first?"

You tilted your head with a soft shake, "Yeah, then you'd at least know for certain how they felt."

Gwaine continued to stare at you as he nodded softly. A small smile spread across his face as you felt your heart flutter.

"Alright then." Taking a step closer, he was right in front of you, his eyes drilling into yours. You felt your breath catch in your throat. "Can I kiss you?"

As confusion turned into denial, following by realization, you opened your mouth slowly, and spoke softly. "You were talking about me?"

His lips stretched into a grin as he nodded softly. "I thought I was being obvious."

You felt your face grown hot as you failed to repress a smile. "Gwen was right. I am-"

Gwaine's smile turned into a grin as you both spoke at the same time.

"Blissfully unaware."

You giggled softly as you looked down, feeling almost overwhelming embarrassment, confusion and excitement.

Feeling Gwaine hook his finger under your chin, you looked up to meet his gaze. "I was certainly right about one thing. You really don't realize any of those things about yourself do you?"

"I don't really think about myself at all." You admitted.

His smile faded a bit, before he replaced it again with a flirty gaze. "That's alright, I think about you enough for the both of us."

You let out an almost startled giggle as you felt your ears burning hot.

Keeping your eyes locked with his, you felt him gently caress your chin with his finger. "So, about that kiss?"

Your heart was hammering heavily in your chest, as you found it hard to breath. Smiling, you nodded your head.

Gwaine slowly lowered his head, as his lips met yours gently. The soft kiss was deepened as Gwaine brought his hand to the back of your neck and pulled you closer. You brought your hand up and set it against his chest.

Slowly parting, your eyes fluttered open meeting his again. You both had soft smiles on your lips.

"I do trust you, by the way." You whispered softly. "Label or not."

His smile widened, "You really are too good for me."

You shook your head lightly. "Agree to disagree."

Letting out a soft breathy laugh, he pulled you into another kiss, deeper and more passionate than the last. You wrapped your arms around his neck, as he pulled you flush against him.

xx End xx

I had no idea what to write next, so I just ended it lol. Hope you enjoyed it nonetheless <3

❝ 𝐢'𝐯𝐞 𝐠𝐨𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮, ❞ ▬ 𝐬𝐢𝐫 𝐠𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞.

𝐒𝐘𝐍𝐎𝐏𝐒𝐈𝐒; you're the unintentional victim to an attempt on King Arthur's life and wake up days later in bed, being tended to by your beloved knight. ★ gwaine x gn!reader

𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐒; angst, fear of loss, mentions of poison, mentions of death. {if you notice anything else that i missed let me know}

𝐀𝐔𝐓𝐇𝐎𝐑'𝐒 𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐄; first fic of the new account <3 requested on an old one. this is kinda a sickfic? i sorta went with the reader being unwell without the whole disease route. i love this man sm ugh.

𝐋𝐄𝐍𝐆𝐓𝐇; 1125 words.

𝐌𝐀𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓 ★ 𝐓𝐀𝐆𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓

Waking up to the feeling of a damp cloth being dabbed at your forehead, you slowly blinked open your eyes. The top of his shirt hanging open, sleeves rolled up, his hair slightly dishevelled, Gwaine looked tired. Attempting to wriggle into a more comfortable position, you groaned at the much your entire body ached.

“Hey,” Gwaine said softly, a small smile forming as he looked down at you, “Don’t try and move, sweetheart, you’re still very sick.”

You wanted to cry, your head felt like it was about to explode or topple right off your body. Your neck was as stiff as a board and your throat felt like gravel. “How long was I-” you began, croaking like a frog before he shushed you.

“You’ve been asleep for three days,” he explained, “Gaius thinks it should only be three more before the poison is fully out of your system.”

You frowned at that. Poison?

“At the feast,” he said, knowing just what you were thinking, “Sir Arnold’s serving girl put something in the wine. Apparently, it was intended for Arthur but it didn’t reach him funnily enough. Leon and Harry’s wife, Lady Evans also drank some.”

“I-” you started, not really having any thought of what to say. Your eyes began to water and hot tears began down your cheeks.

“Hey, hey, hey, ssh,” Gwaine whispered, reaching out to wipe your cheeks just as fast as they were wetted, “it’s okay now, you’re alright. Gaius had all the ingredients on hand and administered the antidote within the hour. More than long enough to make you better.” He continued to brush your cheek even after you stopped crying.

Putting the rag down on the cupboard at your bedside, he pressed a chaste kiss to your forehead and rose from his chair. “I had Merlin prepare you some soup in case you woke,” he said as he fetched the bowl from the table. As he returned with it, he lifted the spoon to his mouth to taste it. You frowned.

“Can’t be too careful,” he said, sitting back in his chair. He shuffled it forwards until his knees were pressed against the bed. Taking another spoonful, he held it to your lips. “Just have as much as you can, darling.”

Still relatively warm, it went down smoothly and helped the dry ache of your throat. You had a couple more spoonfuls until you swallowed too fast and began to cough. Gwaine was quick to put down the bowl and spoon before helping you sit up against the pillows.

“I’ll pour you some water.” He took the jug from beside him and filled the goblet that sat next to it. Sipping it slightly, he waited a moment before handing it to you, gently helping tip some into your mouth for you to gulp down. When you put your hand up to say you had enough he put it back.

“Why do you keep doing that?” you breathed, voice steadier than before.

“You’re not having a sip of anything again until it’s passed my lips first,” he vowed, his tone suggesting he was joking but his eyes saying otherwise. Reaching out, you took hold of his hand where it rested on his knee. He gripped your fingers tightly as you smiled at him.

“Have you eaten today?” you asked. He looked down for a moment, chuckling at your ability to be concerned even while you were the one who had so recently faced death.

“Not yet.”

“And when did you last sleep?”

“Not since you’ve been unwell,” he admitted, preparing himself for your disapproval.

“Go to bed, Gwaine,” you whispered, “there’s no sense in us both looking half-dead.”

He leaned forward and kissed your brow. “You’re a fool if you think I’m letting you out of my sight until you’re up and walking around.”

“Don’t be cruel to yourself,” you said, staring up into his eyes, rubbing your thumb along his knuckles, “you’ll end up bedridden if you don’t eat and sleep. Finish the soup.”

“That’s for you, my darling,” he said.

“I’m not hungry. Finish it and come ‘ere.” You patted the empty spot on the bed next to you.

“Only for you, my love.”

Not bothering with the spoon, he tipped the bowl back and drank the rest of the soup. When he got up to take off his boots you noticed his sword leaning unsheathed against the wall nearby. Just in reach, you thought which made your heart sink. He grabbed it before he plodded around to his side of the bed. After putting it on his bedside cabinet, he climbed onto the bedding and inched closer to you.

“Expecting a hostile intruder?” you asked.

“You never know who’s gonna try to take you away from me,” he said, wriggling into a comfortable position beside you. Retaking your hand, he brought it to his lips and laid a kiss to your knuckles before holding it to his chest. Shoulders pressed together, you let out a deep breath, eyes falling shut again.

“I’d never let them,” you murmured, “you’re stuck with me.”

“Good.” He was silent for a while before adding: “I thought I was gonna lose you. For a while there it didn’t look like… Gaius wasn’t sure you’d make it.”

Shifting with a slight wince, you turn to look at him better. You tucked a piece of hair behind his ear and he turned his head towards you.

“I’m okay, Gwaine,” you said, “I promise. It’s okay now. I’m safe.”

“No thanks to me,” he breathed, the fear in his voice breaking your heart.

“You didn’t know, how could you have?”

“I don’t know, but I just sat there for a minute. After you fell out of your seat and I had you in my arms. You were so fucking still and I just… I couldn’t move. Percival grabbed you and ran to Gaius. If he’d been any slower, if I’d- you would’ve died because of me.”

Scooching closer, you let go of his hand and wrapped your arm around his middle. He lifted his arm to put it behind your back allowing you to press your cheek into his chest. “You were in shock, it’s not your fault.”

“But it would’ve been.”

“No,” you insisted, “whoever put the poison in the wine is to blame, no one else.”

“Hmm,” he hummed, not entirely taking your word for it now, “never again. I’ll protect you from anything and everything, whatever it takes.”

“You’re too good to me,” you said, kissing his cheek, “my handsome knight.”

“You’re not so bad yourself, sweetheart,” he said, “now go back to sleep, you need to rest.”

“You best go to sleep too.”

“Of course,” he said, “Sweet dreams, darling.”

𝐄𝐍𝐃 𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐄; hope you enjoyed <3 if you have any ideas, suggestions, or comments please comment on this post, dm me or drop your thoughts in my inbox! i’d love to talk to you :))

Sir Gwaine x gn!child!reader (!!PLATONIC!!)

summary: reader is the cousin of Sir Gwaine. their father, Gwaine's Uncle, was became abusive to the reader after his wife cheats on him. the reader escapes and finds a group who takes them in. the group is killed, reader is injured, and barely stumbles into the city before passing out.

warnings: child abuse, murder, death, slight gore, injuries, angst, mentions of blood, serious!Gwaine

Gwaine's father and yours were brothers. they served as knights under the same king. Gwaine's father was slain in battle, leaving yours devastated. after overcoming his grief several years later, he married and had a child. but it shortly started to seem like his grief was still there in his subconscious. waiting. after discovering that your mother had cheated on him, that grief took a new form: anger. your mother had left, so the only person he could take that anger out on was you.

you had endured until you were twelve, when finally you built up the courage to run away. your father was away, scouting for your king, as there was a threat of an enemy nearby. you took advantage of the opportunity. the previous day you had discovered peddlers in your village. they were travelers, and would soon be out of town. you told them your story and they agreed to take you with when they moved.

their next destination was Camelot. perfect. you had a cousin there. a knight serving King Arthur. from what you had heard, Arthur was a fairer king then yours was, so surely, if your cousin was one of his knights, he had to be a good person.

you packed few things, merely the essentials. you met the travelers in the spot you decided on and departed on your journey.

your freedom was short-lived, however. you were only a few days into your trip when bandits came upon your group. everyone was killed, and there was an arrow in your side. you had barely made it inside the city when you passed out from the loss of blood.

~~~

you woke up in an unfamiliar bed, with unfamiliar sheets, and a distinct smell of herbs. you looked around. this was unlike any place you had seen before. your side stung. there was a bandage wrapped around your injury. you tried to stand up, but before you had the chance, a black haired boy walked into the room, carrying a bowl. his eyes grew wide before he said, "don't stand up. we just got the wound to stop bleeding, you could reopen it."

reversing your actions, you said, "where am I?"

"you're in the Court Physicians lodging (A/N: Idk what's it's called and I didn't want to say chambers because that's like his room)," said the boy. " you were found unconscious near the edges of the city by a Knight. he barely got you here in time, if he was any later you might not have survived. I'm the Court Physician's apprentice, Merlin."

"I'm Y/N," you said.

"well, Y/N, why are you here? I've never seen you before. do you live in Camelot?" he asked.

"no. I don't. I'm from a nearby kingdom. I was with a group of travelers, but we were attacked by bandits. i think everyone else died," you said. "I escaped from my father. he abused me. I came here because my cousin is a Knight here, and I thought he might be willing to help me. I don't know, though. I've never met him."

"I'm sure he will, King Arthur's Knights are only people he knows that are just. they have to be, the King has to trust them with his life."

"that's what I hoped. his name is Gwaine. is it possible that I could talk to him?" you asked.

"Gwaine?" his tone was a shocked one. "your cousin?"

"is that so shocking?"

"not shocking necessarily. just surprising. he said he didn't have any family left. here," he said, handing you the bowl. "eat. build your strength. I'll talk to Gwaine. I'm sure he'd like to meet you."

then he left.

~~~

several hours passed before Merlin's return. following him was a man with long, dark hair who wore chainmail armor.

"Y/N, this is Gwaine. Gwaine, this is the child I told you about, Y/N," said Merlin. "I'll leave you alone, I'll be just outside if you need anything."

"so, you're F/N's child?" he asked after a long silence.

"if you could even call me that. I was more of his punching bag," you said.

"he abused you?"

you nodded.

"that sounds just like him," he sighed.

"did you know him?"

"I did. he refused to help my mother. so did the King. he was the closest thing I had to a father and he left us behind. I'm just sorry you had to put up with him so long."

"I don't have to anymore, and that's what matters. I was hoping that you'd be able to help me? it's not like I exactly have a mother. it's honestly her fault that he started anyway."

there was a confused look on his face, before you continued, "she cheated on him, he found out, she left, he starting hitting me."

"I'm... so sorry. I can't imagine how that must have felt."

"it's fine. I'm sure I'll deal with it. but, you're my only family left. do you think I could..."

he finished your sentence. "stay here?" you nodded.

he smiled. "of course you can," he said.

you returned his smile. "thank you so much," you said.

"of course. I wouldn't just leave you alone. I know how that feels."

God, you could only imagine.

but for now, you had better focus on healing.

and maybe sleeping.

you had just noticed how tired you are.

there was a knock and Merlin came in.

"Gwaine, Arthur wants you," he said.

Gwaine nodded. "I'll be there in just a moment."

Merlin nodded back and closed the door.

"Y/N," he said. "I wish you that best of luck on your recovery."

you smiled, and then he left.

you actually had a future now, didn't you?

yes, you did.

(pt 2 maybe coming soon)

REQUESTS + RULES.

heyyyyy, here's the information/rules about requests i take. overall rule, please ask nicely :))

status: only matchups are open.

◆ MATCHUPS! are open.

matchups!!! these are really fun, ik i always love them. for matchups what i need is what fandom/s you want (max 3) a matchup for, if you want a male/female/whoever matchup, and a reasonably detailed description of you.

i will not take anonymous matchups and i'll only do them for people following me :) if you submit an anonymous one, dm me or submit a second non-anonymous one and tell me it was you so that i can post it without your url but also that way i can also see if you're following me.

brief description of you should include: a brief description of your physical appearance, your mbti type if you know it, mentions of both positive and negative personality traits, your hobbies, your likes, your dislikes, what you do in life, hopes and dreams. a wild variety of things that sums you up.

fandoms available are; The Boys, Stranger Things (not the kids obvi), MCU (includes Netflix Shows), Star Wars (Skywalker Saga + Mando).

◆ ICONS! are closed.

all i need for icon requests (which are more like suggestions) is what character you want! i'll only do one set per character and you can find who i've already done here (link coming soon)

◆ FANFICTION!

what i need from you in your request is specified in the subheading beyond according to fic type :) i only write headcanons and blurbs just based on time considerations (if you have ideas for oneshots or prompts or something you'd like to see i'd love to hear that just not as a request)

characters i write for, star ☆ indicates my top picks:

from The Boys: Soldier Boy ☆, Billy Butcher, Hughie, MM, Frenchie, Kimiko, Annie, Maeve.

from Stranger Things: Eddie Munson ☆, Billy Hargrove ☆, Steve Harrington, Nancy Wheeler, Robin Buckley, Jonathan Byers, Jim Hopper.

played by Oscar Isaac: Poe Dameron ☆, Moon Knight bois (Steven, Marc, Jake) ☆, Nathan Bateman ☆, Duke Leto, Blue Jones, Abel Morales, Sergent Kane, Orestes, Richard Alonso-Muñoz, Rudal Keener, William Tell.

lol miscellaneous: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker (Star Wars), Spike (Buffy), Dean (Gilmore Girls) (let me have this), Will Turner, Elizabeth Swan, James Norrington (POTC), Morgana Pendragon, Gwaine (Merlin BBC),

played by Ben Barnes: Billy Russo ☆, The Darkling ☆, Caspian X.

from Marvel: Frank Castle, Matt Murdock , Loki Laufeyson, Bucky Barnes, Erik Lehnsherr, Wanda Maximoff, Valkyrie, Thor Odinson.

rules for all fanfic:

i won't write anything that i haven't experienced (or that i find triggering) so just please stay away from topics of mental illnesses, extreme trauma, that sorta thing.

i'm not going to write NSFW for requests so let's just skip that (steamy/suggestive is all good though),

i might decline a request if i think it'll take too long, i'm not confident in it, or i just don't like it. that's not to say your request was bad just that it didn't fit me.

also it might take a while oop, be patient with me. i'll close requests if i'm a bit back up with them.

◇ HEADCANONS! are closed.

the only requirements for headcanons are tell me what character you want, what headcanons you'd like eg. "date night hcs", or "breakup makeup hcs", if you want fem!reader or gn!reader (apologies for the inconvence but i don't do male!reader).

◇ BLURBS! are closed.

the only requirements for blurbs are tell me what character you want, if you want fem!reader or gn!reader (apologies for the inconvence but i don't do male!reader) and gimme a prompt! whether that's a dialogue prompt you found, a scenario you wanna see, whatever :)) these should be short... but also i might get carried away.

Hello! I just found your blog! I really like it, you're awesome and I love that you do Merlin especially. I'm wondering if you'd like to write a Gwine one? (He's my favourite) and his s/o is stubborn and is 'hard to get', and the other knights find it funny... You don't have to do it. Sorry if this is confusing!

warnings: mentions of food

Gwaine x gn!reader

••••••

“Just listen to me!”

“Gwaine, Gaius will make me clean the floors if I’m late-“ you replied, trying you best to sound annoyed. That was how you reacted to people you liked instead of actually admitting your feelings - Merlin, a brotherly figure to you, constantly joked about how stubborn and prideful you were. Secretly, you hoped that Gwaine would try and stop you, and you felt your heart drop when you heard his footsteps stop.

You turned around, suddenly nervous over whether Gwaine had actually left you alone. You’d implied it but you hadn’t meant for him to actually go. Nope, Gwaine was stood there - now sporting the most stupid grin ever.

“Careful, if you stand talking to the lowly knight, you’ll be late,” he grinned, leaning on the wall of a nearby building. A blush spread across your face and you frowned as he used your own words against you.

“I guess I can make five minutes,” you murmured your sheepish reply, kicking at the ground with your foot in an attempt to hide your embarrassment.

“You’ve resisted all of my charms so far, (Y/N)-“

“Your charms?? Really bad puns and trying to impress me with sword fighting? Sure thing, Gwaine.”

“Shhh. As I was saying,-“ he winks “- I need some help on a ride tomorrow, it’s only a small thing I need to get but your expertise on plants would be invaluable,” he finished. You suddenly realised he was very close to you. Unperturbed, you met his eyes and shrugged nonchalantly. In reality, your heart was beating ridiculously fast and you couldn’t wait to tell Merlin.

“I can see if I’ll have time,” you answered and Gwaine smirked - he knew this was the closest thing to a ‘yes’ that he’d get from you.

“It’s a date then,” Gwaine backed away, shooting you a wink and grinning at your frustrated and yet bright red face.

Unbeknownst to you, Gwaine rounded the corner, sticking his thumbs up. The knights, who had all been waiting to see if you’d agree to go with Gwaine, patted him on the back. “So, you need to plan this picnic then,” Percival reminded Gwaine, who nodded.

“I’ll get Arthur and Gwen’s help. Only the best for (Y/N).”

A/N: Though it sounds super angsty, which it is, it does have a somewhat happy/hopeful ending, and could have a part two if desired.

Words: 3.6k

Entering the gates into Camelot, you felt your chest fill with anticipation, excitement and anxiety. This was the beginning of a new start for you, and you had no idea how it would go.

It took a lot to convince yourself to accept Gwen's offer of a place at the palace. You weren't sure if that was what you wanted. But as your village grew smaller and smaller, and you had no one left there, you decided it was time to start again, even if it would be hard.

Spotting Gwen waiting for you near the market stalls, you grinned and waved your hand in the air.

You had met Gwen when you were a lot younger, when you and your father had come into Camelot for a fair. The two of you had become fast friends and often wrote letters to one another over the years.

When she saw you, she quickly made her was towards you wrapping you in a hug as soon as she reached you.

"Oh, I'm so glad you made it safely, how was your journey?"

"Long, but not too hard luckily. I managed to befriend a few travelers who brought me a great distance on their carriage."

"Oh good! Well, come on, I have so much to show you, the market and palace has changed quite a lot since you last visited."

"I've heard much. King Arthur, certainly seems to be making a difference all across the kingdom."

After she showed you around the market, you stopped outside the palace walls to discuss the options for jobs you could take.

Stopping mid sentence as you heard a familiar voice, you looked around, your eyes stopping on a passing group of knights.

As one of the men laughed, and turned to look back at another knight, you felt your heart drop and your breath catch it your throat.

Gwen, seeing your sudden change in demeanor, followed your gaze.

"Gwaine?" You muttered, shock and uncertainty obvious in your tone.

"Do you know Gwaine?" Gwen asked.

You turned to look at her, and she could see the obvious shock on your face. You nodded your head lightly as you looked back here he had just been, seeing he was gone, again.

"He- we- we were.."

Gwen frowned before she gently grabbed your arm "Wait, is Gwaine the one you told me about? The man who disappeared?"

You nodded again, feeling overwhelming emotions course through you.

Gwen, able to see this, gently tugged your arm "Come on."

Ushering you to her cottage where she was allowing you to stay for some time, she gave you a few moments to gather your thoughts as she sat beside you. You had told her briefly what had happened a few years previous, but you never told her Gwaine's name, or exactly what had happened.

Taking a deep breath, you looked over at her as she waited patiently across from you.

"Around five years ago, a man came into our village. He was injured after a skirmish with some bandits in the forest. Gwaine. My father allowed him into our home, and we helped him recover. During that time, to repay us for our kindness, he helped us around the house, helping my father fix the roof, work his job when he was sick. Eventually, me and Gwaine fell in love. Oh Gwen I loved him so much. But I was always afraid he would feel the need to leave again. Nothing ever seemed to keep him in place, he was a traveler, he love adventure. A quiet village life was not appealing to him, I knew that. After some time, he reassured me he would not leave me. That he loved me. He even told me that he would marry me one day." You looked down at your hands "And I believed him. I truly did, and I do think he did love me. But...he was never the type to settle."

You stood up and walked over to the window, trying to repress the tears that were forming in your eyes.

"One day, after about a year and a half of being in the village, he left to go to a nearby town to get supplies. But he never returned. I waited every day for him to come back. But he never did. So I waited for a letter, but never received one. I decided he must have been killed. Because the idea that he chose to leave me, hurt too much. But now....he's here, and he's a knight nonetheless." You let out a soft almost scornful laugh. "Now I know, I was not enough to make him stay."

Gwen rose and walked over to you, gently placing her hands on your arm "I'm so sorry Y/n. I had no idea. I mean...Gwaine has mentioned a great love in the past, but...I suppose he was too ashamed to say anything else."

"How long has he been here?"

Gwen thought for a moment "Nearly two years I think."

You nodded "I mourned him Gwen. Every day."

Gwen sighed "What will you do?"

"I don't know" You shook your head "Maybe I should not stay here."

"You mustn't let him chase you away Y/n. You need a new place to start over, where else would you go?"

You turned and looked at her "I don't know. But...I'm afraid."

She pulled you into a hug "I know. But perhaps this could give you your answers, and you can move on, stop mourning." Pulling away, she met your gaze "Please stay. For a week at least, and if after that you still want to leave, I will support your decision."

You thought for a moment, uncertainty still coursing through you. You really did have no where else to go.

Letting out a shaky breath, you nodded "Alright. I'll stay, for now."

She smiled softly "Good."

"What do I do if I run into him though?" You asked with a sightly panicked expression.

She shrugged her head slightly "Slap him?"

You let out a laugh and shook your head "I would be lying if I said he wouldn't deserve it."

Looking out the window again, you feared what would happen when you saw him again. What would be his answer to your long asked question. 'Why did you leave me?'

--- ---- --- ---

Over the next few days, you managed to avoid seeing Gwaine all together. You were not ready to face him. So when the knights left on a short scouting quest, you felt relieved you would not have to peer around every corner, at least for a short time.

You and Gwen walked through the market picking up supplies for dinner. Looking through some vegetables in a basket on the ground, you froze in place when you heard a familiar voice call out.

"Hello Gwen, how are you today?"

Gwen, looked down at you with an alarmed look before looking over at Gwaine as he approached.

"Gwaine! I thought you were on the scouting trip with the other knights?"

"Oh I got the easiest part, I'm already done." You could practically hear the grin in his voice as he spoke.

Standing, but with your back still towards him, you felt your hands beginning to shake as nervousness washed over you.

As Gwen spared you a brief look, Gwaine looked over her shoulder. He felt his heart jump a bit as he recalled the similarity to someone he had once known.

"Who's your friend?" He asked with an uncertain voice as he stared a the back of your head.

'Oh, um-" Gwen stuttered as she looked back to you.

You clenched the basket in your hands tighter as you let out a shaky breath. Slowly turning around you spoke, your voice soft, yet full of obvious emotion.

"You used to know my name."

As you turned and Gwaine's eyes fell on your once familiar gaze, he felt his heart clench in his chest. Your eyes were still the beautiful shade he would recall at night when he thought of you. Your voice still sent chills through him. You were still you.

"Y/n." He muttered softly, mouth agape.

"Ah, so you do still know it." You said softly, yet scornfully as you looked briefly down at your feet.

Looking back up at him, you met his eyes with an attempt at a cold gaze, but the tears that threatened to build caused a shine to glaze over your eyes, revealing your true emotions.

"Nice to see you're still alive."

Gwaine frowned slightly at this comment before recalling that he gave you no word of his whereabouts after he left. A familiar guilt rocked through him, causing him to take a deep breath in.

"Y/n." He repeated, a bit louder this time.

Clearing your throat, you turned and handed money to the clerk at the stall. Looking back at Gwen you forced a smile "I think that should do us for dinner then."

Gwen nodded, looking from you to Gwaine nervously, as she watched you begin to leave.

"Y/n, wait!" Gwaine quickly stepped past Gwen and grabbed your hand, stopping you.

As you felt his hand in yours, you felt your heart swell, but you yanked your hand away, turning towards him with a bold gaze.

"You don't get to demand me to wait after what you put me through."

Gwaine faltered, his voice was low "Y/n. Leaving you was the hardest thing I ever did."

"And yet you seemed to do it so easily." You said scornfully.

You saw him flinched a bit at your words but you would not allow yourself to feel guilt

Just as he opened his mouth to speak, you cut him off "I thought you died."

Your voice came out softly than you meant, and you saw his eyes widen slightly.

"I convinced myself that was the only thing that would stop you from coming back home. But now I see I was wrong. You chose to leave and never come back. And now your a knight? Something you swore you'd never be?" You scoffed as you stepped back from him "What else did you lie to me about?"

Gwaine began to follow after you as you turned away to leave, but Gwen grabbed his arm. Looking back at her, she shook her head "Not now Gwaine, give them some time."

"How long have they been here?"

"A few days. Y/n saw you in the courtyard the day they arrived, it's been a lot to process."

Gwaine looked back to see you disappeared at the end of the road. Guilt sat heavily in his chest, he needed to talk to you again, to explain. There was no good excuse, he knew that, but he needed you to now how much he regretted what he did. He needed you to know how much he still loved you.

--- --- ---

Gwaine's eyes searched through the trees as he looked for you. He managed to find out you had gone out to gather herbs, and he was determined to speak with you.

Finally spotting you through the trees, he made his way over to you. His steps were hurried, so he was not able to sneak up on you.

Turning at the sound of footsteps, you saw Gwaine falter for a moment as you looked at him. Your heart jolted in your chest, but you looked away from him, quickly picking the herbs you were after.

Finally reaching you, he stood behind you for a moment before he finally spoke "Y/n, I wish to speak with you."

You remained silent as you continued to walk to gather other herbs. Gwaine let out a sigh but followed you.

"Y/n please., I want to explain." He begged as he followed you. Reaching out, he grabbed your arms and forced you to turn and look at him.

You met his eyes and or a moment he saw your gaze soften, before it was quickly replaced with hurt.

"Please Y/n." He said again, his voice soft as he stared into your eyes.

Your heart was hammering in your chest as he looked at you. His familiar gaze, even wracked with guilt made you heart beat fast. The way he stared at you, as though he still cared for you like he used to made your heart ache.

"Don't look at me like that." You muttered out, almost in a whisper.

"Like what?"

"Like you still love me."

Gwaine felt his heart ache at this, your face so full of hurt, and doubt, all of it he caused. He frowned as he shook his head lightly "I do still love you."

You closed your eyes tightly as you pulled away from his grip "Then why did you leave me?"

Gwaine hesitated for a moment before he sighed "For no good reason. I just...after I left the village, I felt the desire to keep going, to keep moving again, and I just...didn't stop. But that doesn't mean I did not love you."

You let out a soft huff of air. "If you loved me you would have come back." You voice began to grow in anger.

"I did come back."

You frowned "What?"

"I did come back. After a month, but I- I saw you, outside the cottage, with your father, laughing. And I thought, that maybe I didn't hurt you as much as I thought I did. And I thought that maybe it would best if I didn't barge back in again."

You shook your head "My father makes one joke to cheer me up after I thought the love of my life either abandoned me or died, and you thought that I meant I was better off? Gwaine, I was devastated. I waited outside the cottage for you for months. Every day for weeks, I walked down to the river to look for you, hoping that I might see you come over the hill with a grin on your face. Every day you didn't come back broke my heart more and more!"

Gwaine's own eyes were burning with the threat of tears as you spoke to him. He could see the pain he caused in your eyes like it was a fresh wound.

"You don't know what it was like, being alone after that." You let out a soft whimper as you spoke.

"But you had your father to help y-"

"He's dead." You cut him off. "He died four months after you disappeared, I've been alone ever since."

You saw the realization and pain cross over his face. He stepped back as he looked down at his feet. He and you father got along great, you new it would hurt him to learn he died.

"I was alone, and I needed you." You added on once more, as tears streamed down your face.

Gwaine met yours eyes against and his heart broke. Stepping forward, he grabbed you and pulled you into his chest, wrapping his arms around you.

"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." He muttered into your shoulder.

For a moment, you allowed him to hold you, allowing yourself the one thing you wanted for so long. Before you pulled away from him.

He watched as you stepped back, giving him one last look before you walked away. He watched you go, and even though everything in him was screaming to chase after you, he didn't.

--- --- ---

Adrenaline rushed through you as you rushed through the crowds, everyone was running in different directions trying to get somewhere safe.

Making your way down the street towards Gwen's home, your eyes landed on one of the soldiers who had attacked Camelot. One of the knights of an enemy kingdom, hoping to catch King Arthur off guard.

At the same time that your eyes landed on him, his met yours. You saw a smirk cross his face. Looking around, you realized you were the only one around now, everyone else had fled.

Looking to the ground, you saw a deceased soldier. Quickly grabbing his sword, you spun back towards the enemy soldier who was stalking towards you. You kept your blade out in threat as you backed away.

Your breath was heavy as your hands shook, you were not a soldier, you were not a knight, why was he coming after you?

A voice whispered in the back of your mind that made your skin crawl 'He just wants to kill'

Suddenly lunging at you, you blocked his attack, but stumbled back. Quickly, he knocked the sword from your grasp and hit you in the face before grabbed you. Pulling your arm back, you punched him in the face as hard as you could before stomping on his foot, trying your best to get away from him. You yelled out as you struggled in his grip.

As Gwaine rushed through the streets to locate anymore of the enemy soldiers. His eyes were drawn at the sound of a yell.

Looking down the road, he felt his heart drop and stomach twist as he saw one of the soldiers grappling with you. He began running towards you, watching as you hit, and fought against the man. His blood boiled as the soldier yanked at you violently.

As the man lifted his sword, preparing to strike you down, you clenched your eyes shut. Hearing a clank of metal before the man groaned and let you go. You stumbled back, opening your eyes.

You saw Gwaine step in front of you as he began to fight the man. You felt relief and worry wash over you as you pressed yourself against the wall, and watched as Gwaine fought to protect you.

After a few minutes of fighting, Gwaine dealt a deadly blow. You flinched and looked away.

"Y/n?"

Hearing Gwaines voice, you looked back up to see him slowly approaching you.

"Are you alright?"

Coming back to your senses, you nodded "Yes, I'm alright."

Gwaine sighed as he came up to you, gently taking your hand in his. Looking around, he gently tugged on your hand "Come on, let's get you somewhere safe."

Following his lead, you looked down at your intertwined hands, feeling a once familiar spark of intimacy and safety.

Finding your way back to Gwen's home, he ushered you inside, looking around, you spoke with a worried tone "Where's Gwen?"

"I saw her in the palace, she's alright."

You let out a sigh of relief as you sat down in a chair, lowering your head in relief and exhaustion. Seeing Gwaine kneel down in front of you, you slowly looked up at him.

He had a frown on his face as he slowly reached up, taking your face in his hand. He gently caressed is thumb over the mark left on your face from the soldier.

You saw guilt, and anger wash over his face before he met your eyes. As your eyes locked, you felt a familiar warmth build in your chest, reminding you of the day you and Gwaine had first kissed.

You had been injured when thrown from a horse, and Gwaine came to help you. You had mud on your face and he brushed it away. Your eyes locked, and before you really knew it, you were kissing. It was he beginning of your relationship, of your great love.

Gwaine was surely thinking the same thing, as his eyes gently fell to your lips.

Seeing this, you felt nervous, and reminded yourself of what your relationship with him now was.

Looking down a your feet, you spoke softly "Should you not go back? Surely others need help."

Gwaine let you a soft breath "Most of the soldiers were captured or killed, the one who hurt you was one of the last. I'm not going to leave you."

Seeing the way your eyes shot to him momentarily, he felt his chest clench.

He gently caressed your chin "I wont. Not again."

Placing his hand in yours, you let out a soft breath and shook your head before you looked back up at him.

"You can't just charm me back into your good graces Gwaine."

A soft, almost sad smile crossed his face "I know."

"I wont force you to come back to me. I understand that I hurt you. And I deserve all the anger in the world for what I did. I just need you to know that I do still love you, I never stopped. And I will always be here if you need me. We can both make Camelot our home. And eventually, if you want to, we can start again. Because I will be right here, waiting."

"I-" You started, before letting out a sigh "I do still love you Gwaine, no matter how much you hurt me, I could never stop."

You saw hope fall over his face and you softly shook your head.

"But I am not ready to forgive you, not yet. We are both different people now, it would not be the same."

Gwaine's face fell a bit, but he nodded in understanding. "I understand. But believe me Y/n, I wont give up. We are back in each others lives for a reason. Whether it is fate, a second chance, or just coincidence, I will do whatever I need to do to make sure I don't lose you again. And I will wait however long it takes."

As he slowly began to stand, he tilted your head up, before pressing a soft kiss to your forehead. You close you eyes briefly at the action.

When you opened them again, he was staring down softly into your eyes "Stay in here, to be safe. I will come back to check on you shortly, I need to make sure the attack is over."

Nodding wordlessly, you watched him go. And as he left, you did not doubt he would come back. And the previous anger you felt for him had faded. You could not forgive him yet, but you knew you would.

And you couldn't help but wonder what would happen after you did.

xx End xx

Could possibly do a second part to this at some point if people want it.

Gentle Confession

Prompt: "I've never met anyone that has made me feel this way." Requested By: Anonymous. (Mystery Prompt Challenge; Pink 18)

Pairing: Sir Percival x Gn!Reader

Plot: With some encouragement from the other Knights (and only a bit of teasing) Percival finally gets the courage to tell you how he feels.

Warnings: None!

Words: 1k

No matter how many times he tried to distract his mind, Percival's eyes always seemed to wander back to you. He watched as you smiled and laughed with Merlin as you gathered fire wood. He felt his gut clench in both jealousy and envy for Merlin being able to so easily make you smile and laugh.

Whenever Percival made you smile, or laugh, he felt as though he had won a prize. He would often think back on those moments with pride and triumph, and would wait with baited breath when he could experience it again.

As a small projectile hit Percival in the face, he looked over in surprise and annoyance. Seeing the rest of the Knights staring at him with amused grins, he let out an annoyed sigh. "What?"

"Why do you just sit around and stare at Y/n all the time and never do something? I'm getting tired of seeing those pining doe eyes." Gwaine said with a teasing tone.

Percival rolled his eyes, as Elyan spoke up. "He's got a point Percival, go say something."

"Why haven't you?" Arthur asked.

Percival opened his mouth to speak, but paused, unsure of how to explain himself. Sighing, he threw a stick he had been toying with into the fire. He knew he would most likely be met with relentless teasing, but he allowed himself to admit something "I don't know. I just- I've never met anyone that has made me feel this way."

The other knights shared a few glances before they all leaned in a bit and talked a bit softer.

"If that's true then you seriously need to do something Percival." Elyan said.

"You know Y/n stares at you too right? Nearly as much as you stare at them." Leon added.

Percival looked at him with a furrowed brown, unsure if he should listen. Looking between the other knights they all nodded in agreement.

"If you're all screwing with me I'll-"

"We're not!" Leon said while raising his hands. "As much as I enjoy teasing as much as these guys, I'm not lying, not about this."

"Now go do something about this before I have to suffer another night of watching you pine like a little- Ow!" Gwaine was interrupted as Arthur stomped on his foot.

Meeting Percival's eyes, Arthur gave an encouraging nod of his head towards you. Percival looked over, seeing that you were heading off deeper into the woods, as Merlin started to come back.

Letting out a sigh he stood. "Alright."

As he walked off, he could hear whispering from the others as he got further away. If Leon was telling the truth, and you had some kind of interest in him, then the teasing from them would be worth it. But then again, if it wasn't true, and you showed no interest...

Percival halted in his step at the thought, uncertainty rising in his chest. He spotted you nearby as you began to pick up some wood, but dropped some that had been in your arms as you knelt down. Taking in a deep breath, he walked towards you.

"Want me to carry those?" Percival asked as he approached you.

Looking up at Percival as he stopped beside you, you smiled up at him. Standing, you handed him the bunch of wood in your arms, noticing how it looked like so little when he held it. "Thank you Percival."

Continuing to pick up wood, you noticed as Percival seemed to watch you. You felt your heart beat pick up pace, as your ears began to burn. Anytime you saw him looking at you, you felt as though you would shrivel up. He made you nervous. You had been attracted to the gentle giant since you first met. He was kind, protective, honorable, funny, strong, you could go on.

Sparing another glance at him, you noticed he was staring at the ground, seemingly deep in thought. "Is everything alright?" You asked softly.

Percival's eyes shot up as you spoke. "Oh, uhm, yes, I'm fine, I just..."

You looked at him patiently. "Yes?"

He adjusted his stance nervously before he looked back towards the camp. Looking back at you he took a step closer as he looked down at you. "I just...I don't know how to do this." A soft laugh came from him as he shook his head.

You felt your face growing hot as you began to realize what he was trying to do. Or what you hoped he was trying to do.

"Look Y/n, I just- I really like you, and I'm not good with words, never really have been, but I just want you to know that."

You bit the inside of your lip as you repressed a grin. "You want me to know that you like me?"

He nodded his head a bit, obviously growing nervous.

"Well, then, you should know, I like you too Percival."

You saw the second it took Percival to full register what you said as a soft smile crossed his face. "You do?"

You smiled and nodded "Yes."

His smile grew as he looked back towards the camp again briefly. "I wish we were really alone, but I just couldn't keep hiding hit anymore."

"I'm glad you told me Percival. I was starting to wonder if I would ever know for sure."

"When we get back to Camelot, can we, have dinner together? So we can actually talk about this, more so I mean."

You nodded. "Yes, I would love to."

He nodded "Great. Alright."

Turning to walk back to the camp, you stopped suddenly. Percival looked over at you with mild concern. Turning towards him, and using your free hand, you gently grabbed the collar of his armor and pulled him lower as you leaned up to press a soft kiss to his cheek.

You saw the mild shock register across Percival's face. Smiling bashfully, you quickly began to walk back to the camp, leaving a stunned and blushing Percival behind.

The rest of your journey would be be preoccupied with secret and knowing glances between you as you waited impatiently to return to Camelot.

xx End xx

Multi-Character Headcanons: First Kiss

30 Day Writing Challenge Day 26 - 'First Kiss'

Pairings: Merlin x Reader; Arthur Pendragon x Reader; Gwaine x Reader; Lancelot x Reader; Percival x Reader (All Gn!reader)

Warnings: Brief mentions of injuries.

Merlin:

You were both fully aware of each other’s feelings, and Merlin had made them known through various actions.

Bringing you breakfast in the mornings even though it's not his job, and it's always paired with a flower.

Bringing you extra bread or pastries from the kitchen in the evenings.

And you showed your own care for him through mending his clothes and leaving them for him.

Or even performing some of his duties when he is too busy with Arthur.

Your first kiss came on the day he took you out on a picnic.

He was a shy mess when he asked you, but was much calmer now when you sat with him on the hillside.

Running your hand across the blanket underneath you, you smiled “This is very soft.”

Merlin nodded “Mhm...It’s Arthurs.”

Your eyes would snap up at this, and he would give you an innocent look.

You’d let out a surprised laugh as you smacked his shoulder “Merlin!”

“What?” He’d laugh.

“He’ll kill you!”

“Only if he finds out.” He said with a bit of smugness.

You giggled “Well. He won’t hear it from me.”

Merlin would smile at you, and when you met his eyes again he could see how bashful you became.

He would get the overwhelming desire to kiss you. So he would lean in, meeting your eyes and he would speak in a whisper “Can I kiss you?”

You’d feel heat rise up your neck, and would try your best to hide how he was affecting you.

With a small nod and a somewhat repressed smile, you’d whisper back “Yes.”

He would smile and lean in quickly, pressing his lips to yours.

You would be surprised at how soft his lips were, but would get lost in the gentle, yet passionate kiss as he brought his hands up to cup your face and pull you in a bit closer.

- - - - -

Arthur:

Arthur was flirty with you from the beginning.

At first you were shy and unsure of what to do, but as a friendship formed it turned into a friendly flirty banter between you.

You were never really sure if Arthur really had feelings for you though, so you never did anything about it.

But one day, Arthur got tired of beating around the bush and had every intention of telling you about his feelings over dinner or something.

But, when he saw you talking with another Knight, Arthur could tell the knight was clearly flirting, and he got jealous.

He approached and though he was relatively nice, he came up with a bogus excuse and pulled you away from the Knight.

You could clearly tell something was wrong, so when you ended up in a corridor alone, you stopped and asked him what was wrong.

“Nothing's wrong.” He’d excuse, which you clearly didn’t believe.

After giving him a face of disbelief he shrugged his shoulders and let out a scoff “What? I just didn’t like the way he was treating you.”

“He was treating me perfectly fine!” You’d say, even more confused.

But it would click in your head that what Arthur saw, was the knight flirting, and you couldn’t help the hope that filled you.

“Are you sure you weren’t jealous?” You’d ask, clearly amused.

“What? Of course not.” He’d say with a scoff, while immediately damning himself for being stupid and lying.

“Hmm. Fine, then if there is no real reason you did it, I’m going to go apologize.” You said with a challenging tone, before spinning around to leave.

Arthur knew it was a challenge, but it did not stop him from panicking slightly as he quickly reached out and grabbed your elbow “Wait!”

You’d turn and give him a questioning gaze, and Arthur paused for a moment before thinking to himself ‘Screw it’.

He pulled you towards him by the elbow and kissed you. His hands came up to cup your face as he deepened the kiss.

You’d only hesitate for a second before you leaned into it.

- - - - -

Gwaine:

Gwaine was pretty much head over heels for you the second he set eyes on you.

And, once he sees something or someone he wants, he is determined and quite loyal.

You didn’t really believe his intentions at first, so you played hard to get, though not intentionally.

Eventually Gwaine was afraid you just didn’t like him.

But you actually really, really did.

After going on a quest with Arthur and the others, Gwaine ended up getting seriously injured.

Once they returned to Camelot, he was unconscious. You decided to take care of him, fearing and worrying for him tremendously.

When Gwaine finally woke up, and he saw you sitting at his bedside, clearly disheveled and having not left his side, he felt his heart swell up and couldn’t help but grin.

You woke up and saw him smiling at you, and quickly began to check him over.

He would take your hand in his and you would stop what you were doing, suddenly feeling shy, as you were aware you probably made your feelings known.

“I thought I had died and gone to heaven when I saw you by my side.” He muttered softly, and relished in the obvious effect it had on you.

You’d clear your throat and ask him softly “Is there anything you need? Do you want some water or something?”

He’d shake his head softly as he just smiled at you, before getting an idea “Actually, there is something you could do.”

“What is that?” You’d ask softly.

He smiled softly at you before it turned into a smirk “A kiss.”

You’d roll your eyes, thinking he was up to his jokes again “Gwaine.” You’d say with a hint of ridicule.

“No, I’m serious.” He’d begin as he continued to hold your hand. “I was afraid I had died never knowing what it would be like.”

Taking your hand and bringing it up to his lips, be pressed a kiss to the back of it, and then placing it on his chest where you could feel his heart beating heavily.

He would then look at you softly “You make my heart go crazy.”

Your own heart would be beating rapidly. “You’re being genuine aren’t you?” You asked, finally realizing it.

He’d nod his head softly and you’d let out a soft chuckle before moving to sit at his bedside.

“Well, in that case.” You’d say as you gently ran your hand through his hair.

As you leaned down, you’d stop, hovering just above his lips as you gazed into each other’s eyes for a moment.

Taking the courage you could find, you closed your eyes and leaned the rest of the way in, your lips meeting in a gentle kiss, that was deepened as Gwaine brought his hand to the back of your head and leaned in further.

- - - - -

Lancelot:

Lancelot is a romantic through and through, so he would be forward with his feelings from the beginning.

He would court you properly and romantically, bringing you gifts and writing you letters, the whole nine yards.

One day, he would invite you to dinner with him.

When arriving at his quarters, you found it lit with candles.

He would offer you flowers, and you’d have a large meal waiting for you. Courtesy of Merlin.

At the end of the dinner, Lancelot would ask you to dance with him.

“But there’s no music?” You’d say shyly, yet amused.

“That’s alright, we don’t need it.” He’d say as he rose, reaching out his hand to you.

You’d stand, taking his hand in yours. And as you began to dance slowly around the room, you couldn’t help but laugh, which he joined in on.

Eventually, you laid your head on his shoulder as you danced, closing your eyes and taking in his presence.

After a few moments, he would whisper softly “Y/n.”

You would look up at him and he would smile softly as you, softly grazing his hand down your face.

You would see his eyes flick to your lips, and you could not stop your own eyes from doing the same.

You met each other’s gaze and stopped dancing, both of you feeling the tension of the moment.

And as if you both silently agreed, you both leaned in slowly, your lips meeting softly, hesitantly at first.

After the first touch, you both succumbed and the kiss became passionate, as he held you in his arms in the candlelight.

- - - - -

Percival:

Percival is very sweet, caring, a bit quiet, and very protective.

So, even though he never really said anything about his feelings for you, he makes it pretty obvious with his actions.

You’ll catch him watching you and staring at you. He will always offer to walk you home, and watches out for you during quests or when traveling, just generally being protective.

No matter how much he wanted it, he never really planned on kissing you. He just assumed you would never be interested in him.

But after a fateful event during a quest in which you got separated from the others, and were hiding in a small cavern, huddled together while it was storming, he could think of nothing else.

He was keeping you warm and dry in his arms, under his cloak, and he could not stop himself from staring at you.

This was the closest he had ever been to you and it was making him very nervous.

You could tell something was wrong with him, so you looked up at him, fully aware of how close you were. Which made your own heart hammer in your chest. “Are you okay Percival?”

“What? Yes, I’m fine, why?”

“It’s just your heart, it’s beating so heavily.” You'd say somewhat shyly, having felt his heartbeat through his chest while leaning against him.

“Oh.” He’d mutter out, unsure of what to say. And as you stared up at him, with a somewhat worried look on your face, he could feel himself falling ever so deeper for you.

“I just-” He’d begin, but would stop, as he would try to think of something to say. But as he stared at you, he couldn’t stop his gaze from flicking to your lips. “You make me nervous.” He blurted out suddenly.

“I do?” You’d ask, somewhat surprised. “Why?”

“Well I- It’s just...you-” He took a breath and steadied himself. “I care for you...very much, and being this close, it’s almost torture.” He almost laughed as he spoke, sure he sounded stupid.

You weren’t sure what to do, and tried to repress the smile threatening to cross your face, as well as the heat that rose up your neck and ears “Would you like me to move away?” You asked as you pulled away slightly.

“No!” He spurted out, tightening his grip a bit “Uh, no, I don’t want you to catch ill.” He excused, though it was still the truth.

You smiled a bit “Then what would you like me to do?” You asked shyly, unsure of how to make him feel better.

He could see the shyness on your face, and from having pulled you closer to him, his hand felt your pulse from your wrist, and felt it racing.

He met your eyes, and though he was terrified, he spoke softly “Could I kiss you?” He asked, surprised at the words he spoke.

You were surprised at his question as well, but could not stop the smile that formed, excited that he had asked.

Nodding just enough for him to notice, he smiled lightly before slowly leaning in.

Hesitating for a moment right before he kissed you as he looked into your eyes, he took a small breath before leaning in the rest of the way.

His arms wrapped around you and pulled you closer as you both deepened the kiss. Forgetting about the rain and cold surrounding you as you held each other.

Last Chance

Sensory Prompt: A quiet sigh as they turn away

Requested by: @thegeekofmanyfandoms (a long time ago, my bad lol)

Pairing: Sir Gwaine x Gn!Reader

Warnings: Mention of alcohol/drinking, angst

A/n: Even though it’s angsty, I couldn’t not give it a happy ending. Also, I haven’t written angst in a while so I hope it’s decent.

You didn’t even round the corner before you knew what was happening at the tavern. Once you did round the corner however, it was even more clear just how bad it was this time. A mug flies out of the window, landing among some people, causing them to shout and run out of the line of fire.

You felt a mix of anxiety, fear and disappointment rush over you as you took a big breath, straightened your shoulders and began marching towards the tavern. Those who saw you coming moved out of your way, the look on your face not hiding how you were feeling. Others who knew you gave you looks of pity, knowing how much they would hate to be you right now.

Just as you approached the doors a man fell out, landing on his back at your feet, unconscious. Looking inside the swinging door you see the man you had been looking for hit another man, knocking him into a table.

Walking into the tavern you walked up to Gwaine as he struggled to fight the man, before picking up a large jar and smashing it over his head. Turning with a triumphant smile on his face, his eyes met yours.

“Love!” he yelled, the smell of alcohol smacking you in the face “Now what are you doing in a place like this?” he breathed out heavily as the others who had been involved in the skirmish stumbled out, the barmaid smacking then with a broom while yelling obscenities. You didn’t have to be looking at her to feel the mix of relief and pity as she saw you.

Staring at you for a moment, even through his drunken haze he could see the anger in your eyes. As he looked you up and down, seeing you in a much nicer outfit than normal, he remembered that he was supposed to come to your home have dinner together. You saw the realization dawn on his face as his eyes widened “Oh”

“Oh?” you mocked “That’s all I get? Oh?” you mocked again, more venom creeping into your voice the longer you talked. Turning on your heel you walked out of the tavern, Gwaine trailing behind you, stumbling.

“No, love, please, I’m sorry” you heard the smile in his voice. He was always amused when you would get angry at him and his drunkenness. But not this time. This time you weren’t going to give into his large goofy smile, his dark chocolate eyes, and his lovey touches. This time was the last time he would forget about you and drown himself in mead.

As you turned a corner, away from most of the people in the village, he realized that you weren’t stopping. That you were more mad than normal. Straightening up, seeming to sober slightly “Love could you stop walking?” he reached for your hand, just as his fingers brushed your skin you spun around.

He was taken aback by the tear trailing down your face, mixed with the look of pure anger “Why don’t you stop Gwaine?!”

He hesitated “I...I don’t understand, what did I do?”

“What did you do? You did the same thing you always do Gwaine. You forgot about me. You forgot about us, and instead you got drunk and got into another fight. The seventh one this week I might add. So tell me Gwaine, when are you going to stop? When are you going to stop and realize that one day, when you stumble into my home, drunk, and bloody, and tired, I might not be there” Another tear trailed down your face “When are you going to realize that one day you might start a fight with the wrong person and you might not come back to me at all? You have no idea how much I worry when you don’t show up when you are supposed to, how do you expect me to live like this forever?”

Gwaine stared at you silently, thinking over what you said. His brain was still hazy, but he wasn’t drunk enough not to realize what you were saying “I’m sorry” his voice was quiet, almost a whisper “I didn’t realize...” he took a step towards you, his heart breaking when you stepped away from him, as if you didn’t want him to touch you, as if he was tainted.

You breathed out a straggled breath “Gwaine...” you looked down, not sure what to say anymore.

“Love” the way your pet-name rolled of his tongue made sadness flow through you, he sounded so broken. But he was never there to see the tears you cry when he leaves you sitting in your dark and cold home, completely alone. Fearing that he wont come back. “I’ll always come back to you. No matter what. And if...if what you need, is me to come back sober, you’ve got it, that’s what I’ll do”

“Gwaine. You honestly don’t remember all of the other times you’ve promised me that already do you?” his brow raised on confusion as you sighed, rolling your eyes “Those nights when you come back so drunk you can’t even take your own boots off. You see that I’m upset and you always say you wont do it again. But you always do Gwaine. Do you honestly think that this is different? You’ll wake up tomorrow and you wont remember this. You wont remember me, right now, in this moment. You always forget.”

He felt guilt rip through his body. How long had he been hurting you like this, and never realized it? Never remembered. “Well, this time, I wont, I - I’ll remember, I will, and I won’t do it again, you are more important to me that any mead. Please love, Y/n. Give me another chance, one last chance.”

He had taken another step closer to you. You desperately wanted to fall into his arms. But you couldn’t. Not this time. “Gwaine” there was no emotion in your voice. It shook him to the core “This was your last chance”

Staring into his eyes one last time, you see the pain cross his face as he realized what you were doing. You wanted to say more, but had nothing left. You sighed, an empty sight that expressed all the disappointment you had been internalizing. Turning, you walked away from him, not towards your home, not towards anything, you just had to get away from him before you took it all back.

Two Weeks Later

You saw him sometimes, walking by your house, slowly, glancing up, looking to see if you were there. He came back the morning after you left him. He knocked and called your name. You have no idea if he remembered what happened, or if someone told him.

It took a great amount of strength for you not to open the door when he came around. Not to go see him. To check on him. To make sure he wasn’t spending all of his free time at the tavern. Like he promised he wouldn’t do.

Only leaving your house when you knew he was gone, with the knights or at the palace. You pretended not to eavesdrop on others’ conversations, when you made sure that he came back safe from a quest.

A knock at you door breaks you from your thoughts. You stand from your table as you peak through the window. Seeing Merlin, you smile lightly as you open the door “Merlin” you greet him warmly.

He smiles in return as you open the door wider for him to come in, walking into your house he greets you “Hello Y/n”

You could sense something in the tone of his voice as he glanced at you, a thought coming to mind “Did Gwaine send you Merlin?”

A look of shock passed over his face, poor acting “No! No, of course not, can’t I come see me friend when I want?”

You cocked your head “Merlin?”

He kept his facade up for only another second before sighing and nodding “He just needs to know if you are okay, and if...”

You crossed your arms “If...?”

“If it’s alright for him to come around and see you...”

Shaking your head lightly, you move to sit down. Merlin moving to sit across from you “Merlin, I-” you stopped to think “I love him”

“I know” his voice was kind.

“But I just can’t spend the rest of my nights waiting for him to stumble through my door” you fumbled with your thumbs “I'm afraid I would waste away”

“He hasn’t gone back” you glanced up at him “To the tavern I mean. The others invite him, but he refuses. I mean, he has had a drink or two at the palace, but never more than one mug. I haven’t seen him drunk since that night...he barely talks to us now”

You felt a pang of guilt in your chest. You didn’t want to hurt him. But you had no other choice. You needed to see if he would care if he lost you “I want to see him, but, what if I take him back and it happens all over again?”

He shook his head “No, it wont. I know that for sure Y/n. If he knew that this would make him lose you, he never would have done it in the first place. Besides. The others have already threatened him enough, so he knows that if he ever hurts you again, they’ll kill him. Though, I do know he doesn’t care about them. Only you.”

Memories of all the times the two of you had been happy race through your mind. No one ever made you feel as happy as he did. And no one ever made you feel as safe. You felt like a piece of you was missing when he was gone. Looking at Merlin, he is staring at you, waiting. “Where is he?”

You enter the training ground. He’s the only one there. He twirls his sword around in his hand as he slices at the dummy in front of him. Repeating the action a few times, he throws his sword to the ground. His stance and body language showing his frustration. Why he was so frustrated was obvious.

As you were trying to motivate yourself to say something to him, he turns around, his eyes landing on you. His body freezes as his eyes react in shock. Straightening up he opens his mouth, but closes it almost immediately.

“Merlin came to see me” you say, your voice almost shy, as it was during the first few weeks you knew him.

He nodded, glancing down at his feet “And?”

Taking a few steps closer he seemed to grow anxious “And.” you began slowly “he told me you haven’t gotten drunk since....well, you know” sadness showed on your face.

He wanted to rush forward and pull you into his embrace. But he wouldn’t. Not until he knew why you were here. If you had forgiven him. “I haven’t” he reaffirmed “I swear. I promised.”

“I didn’t want to hurt you Gwaine” before you knew it, a tear was falling down your cheek “But I couldn’t watch you do that to yourself anymore, to us”

Gwaines heart raced at the site of your tears, he took a few steps closer, he was only a few feet away “I know love”. Love, God you missed when he called you that “I hate that it happened, but I understand. I deserved it. I realize that I had to learn the worst way what I had been doing” he took another step forward, and another, until he was standing right in front of you, close enough to feel his breath.

You looked into his eyes and his hand brushed away the stray tear from your cheek “Gwaine, I-”

“It’s alright love” he stopped you “You don’t have to say anything else. You did nothing wrong, it was all me. I did this to you, and me. Us. Just tell me what you want me to do. If you want me to leave you alone” he paused, as if he was struggling to imagine this “I will, if you want”

“That’s the last thing I want Gwaine”

A little spark of hope seemed to find it’s way to his eyes “Then what do you need? What do you want?”

“I want you to come home”

His fingers brushed your lips as he reassured you “I’ll always come home to you. I promised it before and I promise it again” he leaned in closer “You are my home, and if I have you, I have everything” his lips pressed against yours as you felt a rush of relief pass over your body. Wrapping your arms around each other, you find the comfort you were both so desperate to find again.
