    Summary

    “I know I’m a prince, so we can’t be friends. But if I wasn’t a prince—”

    Arthur can’t stop thinking about those words. About what he really wanted to say. Hours later, when Merlin’s dressing him for the fight with the dragon, very clearly trying not to cry, Arthur has a decision to make. Either listen to his father’s voice in his head and ignore it, then possibly die while trying to save Camelot, with regret being the last thing he remembers. Or, use this last moment with Merlin to act like true friends do, and offer him a shoulder to cry on.

    In the end, it really isn’t a hard decision at all.


    Set in the episode 2x13 The Last Dragonlord.

    Written for The Merlin Library's Monthly Prompts: "You don't have to act like you're okay."
