I believe if you run the bootcamp utility you can re-merge your bootcamp partition back into the main partition. If that does not work, and you have a backup available, then run disk utility from the installation and use the partition tab to re partition your disk to have one partition. This will erase all data on your disk, but after Mavericks is completed being loaded you will be able to restore from your time machine partition your penal applications and files.
