Summary: Merlin steals cake at a feast.
Today was Arthur's 21st
birthday, meaning the castle held many servants running about in
preparation for the feast. As Arthur was receiving his many gifts
from his father and his knights, Merlin sees the most delicious
looking cake in the world. His mouth waters just at the one glance of
it from across the room. He filled the prince's goblet with more
wine, and went off to get himself the cake he longed to taste.
The cake was chocolate and vanilla
swirled with chocolate drizzled over it. While no one was looking
Merlin grabbed himself a slice and took it to Arthur's chambers, he
knew he wouldn't be there for a while.
“Merlin!” A voice rang out, it was
Gaius. Merlin winced as he laid the cake down on the table in
Arthur's room. Quickly, he ran out of the door. “Yes?” “I need
you to fetch a bucket of water and some cloth, one of the knights has
just thrown up.” Gaius requested and explained. 'If they didn't
drown themselves in wine and mead they wouldn't be.' Merlin
thought as he nodded and huffed out a small breath in annoyance.
Now after he had
cleaned up Sir Leon's guts, he finally found himself back in Arthur's
chambers ready to devour his stolen cake. He was about to take a bite
when someone barged in.
Leon.
“Merlin- I.. just
want- d, t-to thank you..for cleanin' my-blurgghhh.” Leon said with
his voice slurring and threw up yet again. “Okay mate, let's get
you to bed.” Merlin suggested and helped Leon to his room, he came
back and cleaned up the mess Leon had left him with. He put the
bucket and cloth back in Gaius' work room and returned for the third
time for his cake.
Arthur was there.
Eating his cake.
“Oh, Merlin!
Thank you for getting a slice of cake for me. Of all the cakes you
decided to get, you got my favorite.” Arthur smiled, oblivious to
Merlin's face of horror and anger. He looked like he had steam coming
out of his ears.
“Cake thief.”
Merlin muttered under his breath. “What was that Merlin?” Arthur
questioned. “Nothing, just said my pleasure.” Merlin said and
left the room to find himself more of the cake.
It was all gone by
the time he got there.
