Summary
“Arthur!” he complained. “Let me go.”
“Nope,” panted Arthur, already stroking his length. “I'm going to come right across your neck.”
He knew he'd need to be quick otherwise Merlin might squirm out of his grasp. But when he stared down at him, his fist still pumping, Merlin swallowed hard.
Oh…
That was interesting.

Summary
Merlin frowned as he spotted some footprints coming from the lake and leading towards a small copse of trees nearby.
Curious, Merlin followed them. Someone might be in trouble having taken a dip, not realising just how cold the water was. He had rescued more than his fair share of people over the centuries.
Trudging over to the trees Merlin went though a mental check list; he had his phone to call for help, he had his coat and hat which should give the person some kind of warmth. He only wished he'd had the foresight to bring a thermos with him.
As he rounded the trees he had the shock of his life.
Standing there, dripping wet was a tall man with dark blond hair, wearing armour and chainmail.
“Merlin?”

Summary
Merlin was excited.
Arthur had texted him earlier in the day and had instructed him to undress and wait for him, kneeling naked in their play room when he got home from work.
He was tingling with excitement. He always was when they played like this. His mind racing with all sorts of possibilities.
But Arthur knew exactly what he needed. And he would make Merlin wait, and wait, and wait some more, until he slipped into that blissful compliant state where Arthur could do anything to him.

Summary
Merlin glanced around the physicians chambers before he closed his door, though he wasn't sure why. He just couldn't help but feel paranoid. He'd got so used to hiding his magic and his preferences. But a dress was physical and not something that could be easily hidden or explained away at quick notice.
Merlin closed the door behind him and then looked at the dress which was hanging in the corner.
He stripped down to his small clothes and then padded over barefoot to the dress. He pulled it down and ran his fingers over the fine silk then clutched it to his chest, rubbing it up and down. It was the softest, smoothest thing he'd ever felt. A shiver of delight danced down his spine. He couldn't wait to get it on.

Summary
Arthur's hands shook as he opened his laptop.
He had made sure to prepare everything carefully. It had taken time to coordinate things so that both his father and sister were both out at the same time. But now they were.
He had locked all the doors to the house and made sure his own door was firmly closed. Normally this was against his father's rules, due to Morgana once setting fire to her room with candles. But fuck that.
He had hand lotion and tissues nearby.
He was as ready as he was ever going to be.

Summary
Merlin slowed down and fell to the back of the group. He knew that no one would care. Mr Killgharrah was far too interested in the speech from the guide to be paying him much attention. And to everyone else he was the poor, gay, charity case that no one wanted to hang out with, lest they somehow became gay or poor by association. Merlin rolled his eyes.
As they passed through a dark corridor a hand reached out and grasped him.
Merlin almost screamed thinking some kind of ghost had got him.
“Shhh!” hissed Arthur pulling him close against him.
Arthur held him there until their group had turned a corner and then Arthur kissed him hard.

Summary
Most of Merlin's problems were related to the Prince of Camelot.
If he wasn't picking up after him or getting food for him, then Merlin was dressing him (not that Merlin was complaining about that) and if he wasn’t doing that he was going on a quest or saving Arthur from the latest magical threats.
Merlin was also a bit in love with him.
And that was Merlin's biggest problem.

Summary
As Arthur walked in he was surprised to hear a shower running. Normally he was the first one in the building, preferring to come in extremely early to do his workout alone before he starting his day.
Arthur made his way to his favourite cubicle, noticing that the one opposite was the one that was currently occupied.
Inside it was a tall, slender man with a shock of dark hair that was dripping over his face in the stream of the shower.

Summary
“Merlin, right?” the man asked, flicking his eyes up to look at him before returning to the screen.
Merlin brought his thoughts under control.
“Yeah, that's me.”
“Great. I'm Arthur,” he said, holding out his hand. Merlin shook it. Arthur had a strong, determined grip which made sense seeing his profession. “I see you've booked the full body massage? Follow me.”
He took Merlin down a corridor and stood outside the door.
“If you pop in there and undress and get comfortable. I'll be back in a few minutes,” he said, opening the door.

Summary
Arthur took off his cape and circlet, frowning as he put them down on the table and spotted the gifted plant sitting there.
It was rather peculiar looking. He'd never seen a plant quite like it.
The leaves were a vivid green that verged on turquoise and there was a large, deep-red flower in bloom, with an intricate pattern on its petals.
At least it was pretty, he supposed.
He caught the scent of it and it intrigued him. It was sweet like honey, but there was also a hint of something else. He leaned over and took a deep sniff of it to try and better identify the smell. It smelt… well, it smelt a little bit like Merlin who always had a whiff of herbs and earthiness about him, and something… almost metallic somehow.
Arthur shrugged. It was a strange plant with a strange smell. Big deal. He'd get rid of it when King Vortigern’s delegation left. No point in offending people unnecessarily.

Summary
Arthur grabbed Merlin by the wrist and opened the closest door, pulling Merlin in with him. He pulled it closed quickly behind them.
“Arthur, what the—”
Arthur placed a hand over his mouth.
“Shh!” he hissed.
Arthur listened carefully as the sound of Lady de Burgh and her maid’s footsteps passed the door and started to fade as they went down the corridor.
He removed his hand.
“It's been so long, I just wanted to spend some uninterrupted time with you? Is that so wrong?’ he asked.
“No,” said Merlin, looking around with a bemused smile. “But you might have had the foresight to have chosen a better room.”

Summary
Merlin knows that he should probably do something to get over his fixation. But as much as he tries, he just can’t seem to.
How can you get over something that you have to see and experience every day? Longing and wanting, but knowing you’ll never have it?
Worse still, Arthur's always touching him somehow. Whether that be shoving him, or poking him, manhandling him, or ruffling his hair.
In the evenings, when Arthur’s in his chambers and he’s pondering something, he rubs the ring on his index finger against his lips. It’s a subconscious gesture that drives Merlin wild.

Summary
“Look, Merlin,” Arthur began, knowing he was about to be a dick, especially after having had such great sex, but knowing he needed to be honest. “That was great, truly. But, well… I can't really do the whole relationship thing right now—”
“Oh thank God!” Merlin interrupted. “Me too. It was great; amazing. But to be honest, I'm way too busy working on my thesis.”
Arthur felt a wave of relief. It had been a good night and he was glad that this wasn't going to ruin it. He hoped that they might even remain friends.
“This is going to sound crazy,” Merlin said from inside his t-shirt. “But well, since we're both busy and you weren't half bad—”
“I wasn't half bad…!?” Arthur spluttered as he did up his shirt.
Merlin gave him a beaming grin.
He was teasing him.
“What I meant was; maybe this doesn't have to be a one off? Maybe, we could do this again some time?”

Summary
Merlin opened the door carefully and slowly entered the room. As he tiptoed over to the table, he froze. The room was filled with soft gasps and groans and the sloshing of water from the other side of the room.
It took Merlin a moment to recognise what he was hearing.
Well… That explained why Arthur dismissed him during bathing. It was his private time.
Fair enough, Even though he was a Crown Prince, Arthur was still a flesh and blood man.
Merlin kept his eyes averted as he snuck over to the chair and carefully lifted his satchel from it.
Turning, Merlin went to leave when he tripped over another chair and went flying across the floor.
When he glanced up, he saw Arthur in his tub staring at him, his eyes wide, frozen mid-action with one hand in the tub and the other… wriggling.

Summary
He should stop him. All of his instincts are screaming at him.
But he doesn’t.
This isn’t the first time they’ve done this. The fans would kill them if they ever found out. Not necessarily even for being gay. More for daring to fraternize with the enemy.
But Arthur’s so tired of denying himself what he wants.

Summary
"I'm off for a couple of days at the weekend. I was asking because I was thinking of taking off for a bit and going to help out my mum. I haven't been for a while and I used to go all the time."
"Sounds like a good idea.," Arthur agreed. "I'm sure she'll be glad to see you, and you could definitely do with some sun."
"Says the man who spends all his time in an operating theatre…"
"How else do you think I keep my gorgeous tan? It's that theatre lighting."
"Why don't you book some time off next week? Heavens know you're owed it by now." Merlin paused, his face hesitant. "Look, I know that we haven't been dating for all that long. So if you say no, I'll totally understand. I promise I won't be offended."
"Spit it out, Merlin."
"I was just thinking, maybe you could come and visit the farm?"

Summary
"Hello? Merlin, is everything okay?"
"Well, hello stranger. Hope you've not forgotten me?" came Merlin's voice.
"What?" said Arthur, pressing his phone against his ear and his finger in the other, to deafen the sound of the crowd. "You're talking nonsense Merlin, of course I haven't forgotten you!"
"You could have fooled me," said Merlin. "Spending time watching a bunch of silly men kicking around a ball when you could be having so much fun right now…"

Summary
Now that he's been crowned King of Camelot, Arthur's advisers are pushing him to find a wife and secure the future of the kingdom by fathering an heir. But Arthur already has a consort in mind—namely, Merlin, who already does so much for him and Camelot that Arthur can imagine no one better suited to rule by his side. The only problem is convincing Merlin of this fact, since he remains stubbornly oblivious to all of Arthur's attempts to woo him...

Summary
British weather strikes again!
After the wettest December on record, grumpypants-with-a-heart-of-gold Prince Arthur and his totally-not-gorgeous-or-attractive PA, Merlin, get stuck in a little village on the way to a Christmas charity event, with no transport and no accommodation except for a small, cosy inn.
With all the other people stranded by the same flooding, there's only one room free.
And it only has one bed…
Whilst they wait to be rescued, Arthur has a Christmas to remember as he discovers the important things in life, and Merlin finds out that his surly, irritable boss isn’t half as bad as he seems.
A story of flooding, service, snowball fights, and love.
