It was their seventh day, everything was going perfect till they got kidnapped by a guy named Anhora apparently and some other 3 guys, it was their fourth day there and Merlin knew that they couldn't go through one more, they beat the crap out of them each day, each HOUR and Arthur had fainted with the last punch.
The worst thing was that they weren't kidnapped for money or anything like that, it was for FUN, and him and Arthur were just unlucky to be the couple kidnapped, as Anhora explained "You guys were just in the wrong place at the wrong time, I've got nothing against you sweet couple it just pleases me to see that I can end the happiness of the others, it pleases me seeing other people scream while the ir loved ones suffer. I didn't choose you guys specifically, it was just your bad luck to go down that street".
If he could do anything to get Arthur alive out of there he would but there was no way that Anhora would do something like that, so the only thing he could do at that moment was pray to God (that he was doubting that existed at that time).
The next day Anhora came through the door with a creepier smile than usual, he put a table in front of them and two goblets on that table.
Anhora: There are two goblets before you. One of the goblets contains a deadly poison; the other goblet, a harmless liquid. All the liquid from both goblets must be drunk but each of you may only drink from a single goblet.
Arthur: What if we refuse?
Anhora: Then I can torture you guys till one agree to drink it. It'll be fun the same way.
Arthur: … Merlin, I'll drink it, I mean after all it was my idea to go home by that street. It's my fault after all.
Merlin: You prat! You've been blaming yourself all this time! Shit.. just shut up! I love you it's not your fault there's gotta be a way out of this.
Anhora: I don't have all the time in the world guys!
Merlin: Let's think about this. What if I drink from my goblet first?
Arthur: If it's poisoned, you'll die.
Merlin: If it's not, you'll have to drink from yours and you die. There must be a way around it.
Arthur: It's perfectly simple. One of us has to die. We have to find a way to determine which goblet has the poison. Then I'll drink it.
Merlin: I will be the one to drink it.
Arthur: This is my doing. I'm drinking it.
Arthur grab both goblets and drink it before Merlin could even react.
Merlin: YOU IDIOT WHY DID YOU DO THAT! I DON'T WANNA LIVE WITHOUT YOU, YOU'RE MY LIFE ALL THAT I WANNA LIVE FOR IS YOU!
Arthur: I can't live knowing that you can't live …. just …. just grant my last wish for me .. please?
Merlin: What? Anything….
Arthur: Be… happy, for me and for you….. I can't see anymore, it's all fuzzy…. … …..
Merlin: HOW? DON'T DIE! DON'T GO! HOW CAN I BE HAPPY WITHOU YOU! DO YOU KNOW? I planned our life God dammit, we would adopt a son and call it Athusa, our house would have a big green garden, You would work all day at your father company and the when you got home I would take care of you and make all that stress go away, we would fight some times but I would apologise first cause I love you too much to let a fight get into our way… but now how can I do all those things…. tell me… you prat… get up… say it's a joke … I can take all the torture in the world for you to stay alive… get up…. Arthur get up…
Arthur died and after that the police invaded the place arrested Anhora and set free Merlin. 30 years later and Merlin has a son and a big house with a green garden the only thing that is missing is his husband …. Arthur.
