9. Gwen
“I got a new neighbor.”
Merlin states on the phone to her best friend Gwen. While Merlin has to spend the summer home, Gwen is visiting her grandparents in France.
“Girl or boy?”
“Boy.”
“Cute?”
“Very. Pain in the ass, though.”
“So, in other words, your type.”
Merlin can hear the smirk in the girl’s voice.
“I hate you.”
She complains half-heartedly and pushes back the curtain to peek at the other house, but Arthur isn’t anywhere she can see.
“I sense you’re not telling me something.”
Merlin sighs. She had never told her friend about being the reincarnation of a powerful sorcerer (or that Gwen happened to be the reincarnation of Queen Guinevere, for that matter). Somehow, she thinks confide something like that to the girl would make Gwen call the nearest mental hospital.
“It’s nothing.”
“Nothing related to that other nothing that is always in your head, but you never talk about?”
Unfortunately for Merlin, Gwen was incredibly perceptive and had always known Merlin was keeping something from her.
“Kinda.” Merlin replies sheepishly.
“Fine, I’m not going to ask.”
“Thanks. When you’re getting back?”
Her mood is a little better now.
“In a couple of weeks; meanwhile, try to play nice with your new neighbor.”
Merlin sighs.
“I’ll try, but I won’t make any promises.”
“You never do.”
