Summary
After a rather strenuous week in the forest, Arthur’s offer of his bath to Merlin blurs the line between prince and servant, forcing the two to confront the potential of a relationship between them.
OR
The one where Merlin & Arthur face their feelings after making out in the prince’s tub.
---
A/N: Though this canon divergence is set somewhere between end of Season 3 and early Season 4, I have moved up some of Season 4’s events to suit my storyboard needs. (ie. Gwen & Arthur’s relationship failing after S4E9 doesn’t go as written- this leaves both Arthur and Merlin a bit apprehensive about starting a relationship together.)

Summary
They reached the hallway leading to Merlin’s tower way too fast, and the sorcerer kicked his foot before looking at him.
“I should retire-”
“Are you free today-?” they blurted out simultaneously. Arthur mentally cursed himself for showing such eagerness.
Merlin looked momentarily surprised, then he scratched his neck awkwardly, “I’m working on some potions for Gaius” He explained, his gaze flickering away from Arthur’s.
“Of course,” He quickly said, “Then I shouldn’t keep you.”Or
Merlin overworks himself.
Arthur is too proud to admit that he misses him.Bookmarked by ilujinghe
