Summary
Arthur Pendragon and Merlin were literally from two different worlds. One is a prince from a great kingdom and the other a common farm boy from the next kingdom over. These two should have never met.
But that was before they realized their parents were once friends and arranged the two of them to marry when they reached adulthood. That was before Uther turned on magic and Hunith went on the run with her infant son.
Now almost twenty years have passed and these two boys have grown into men. Camelot knights have found Hunith and come to collect her son.
Will Merlin survive this new world he has been thrusted into? A peasant among royals, a sorcerer among those that would have him killed if they found out. Can Merlin even begin to hope for happiness when the prince he is forced to marry wants nothing to do with him?
Follows canon but with my own arranged marriage spin to it

Summary
Needing to let off some steam after a stressful day at work, Robert (a ruthless businessman) picks up a prostitute on his way back to his penthouse apartment. But one night with Aaron isn’t enough and Robert’s got a hell of a week coming up; he offers Aaron the opportunity of a lifetime - stay (and get paid) for the whole week. Aaron can’t resist, and Robert’s pretty fit after all, so he agrees to the deal. They just aren’t supposed to let feelings get in the way of their ‘arrangement’.
(A ‘Pretty Woman’ AU that quite quickly deviates from the movie plot.)
