Merlin awoke the next morning to Gaius' hand on his forehead. Groaning as he sat up, he rubbed the sleep from his eyes and glanced up at his mentor. "What time is it?" His voice surprised him, sounding like someone had poured gravel down his throat while he slept.
"Time for you to go back to sleep. You've a temperature," Gaius said as he gently pushed Merlin back down onto the bed.

When Merlin left for Camelot, he had been escaping more than just the fear of being discovered. For he had already been discovered by someone who would use his power against him. But after ten years of living at Arthur's side, he had nearly forgotten his tormenter. Until he appears in Camelot for a tournament.
Suddenly everything Merlin had built begins to fall apart and he is unable to save himself. Will Arthur notice what is wrong with his servant and will he be able to help? Or will he finally put his secrets aside and save himself?

Summary
"One more word out of you, and I swear to God I will send you into exile."
He knows it’s not the pyre, knows there’s much worse, but banishment would mean staying away from Arthur forever – and, as pathetic as that might sound, he thinks he would rather die than let that happen. It is clear that the feeling is not reciprocated, clear that in Arthur’s eyes, he will never come first. There’ll always be people coming before him, and he’s made peace with that long ago – but if even Agravaine can come before him, then anyone could, no? Anyone could replace him. Call Merlin a traitor and have Arthur get rid of him. Anyone could.Merlin no longer feels safe in Camelot.
or:
Arthur threatens Merlin of banishment.
To Arthur's eyes, it's all forgotten.
To Merlin's, however...
Well, let's just say that his faith in their mutual destiny, once unwavering, finds itself faltering at a dangerously quick rate.- Language:
