Hello! That's me again.
You know, I'm such a Merthur shipper, I love these two so much, and, of course, I couldn't resist Brolin's charm.
Idea to write this fanfic have stricken me suddenly, when I saw some gif on tumblr, where the certain phrase was mentioned... God, I love tumblr, haha :D
Little note: actually, the episode His Father's Son, mentioned in the fanfic, was directed by Alex Pillai, not by Jeremy Webb, but I hope you'll pardon this little discrepancy :)
So, enjoy! And all the awards to my amazing beta, myselfmysame, who helps me so often.
Stop! Stop! That won t work, Jeremy stood up from his chair, gesticulating. 'Bradley, could you please make the look Arthur gives Merlin shorter?'
It was the first filming day of the week, they were shooting the fifth episode of the 4th series, and throughout the filming Jeremy was noticing that Bradley's gaze on Colin's face was lasting a little longer that usual.
'But...' Bradley started, but Jeremy cut him off.
'No buts, Bradley,' he said and, returning to the director's chair, mumbled, 'For God's sake, children will be watching you. Moving on!'
Jeremy spent the rest of the day frowning at the feeling that there was something going on between Colin and Bradley, something he had no idea about. And Jeremy didn't like to having no idea about it.
'Okay, cut! That's enough for today,' he murmured tiredly. 'And, Bradley, a couple of words, if you don't mind.'
'Sure,' Bradley nodded, and Jeremy led him aside.
'What do you think you're doing?'
Bradley blinked.
'I beg your pardon?'
'You know what I mean. Historically, Arthur Pendragon wasn't in love with Merlin, you know. Make sure the thing you're doing is not going to happen again, okay?'
Jeremy closed his eyes and exhaled slowly.
If he tells them to stop it, they won't stop it anyway. He's kind of used to the fact that they NEVER actually stop doing it.
Honestly, Merlin is a FAMILY program, what are they thinking?
'Are you alright?' Jeremy felt an arm on his shoulder, but didn't even open his eyes.
'Yes, I'm fine. Just fine.'
Then he opened his eyes to see what was going on on set and saw that Colin and Bradley were more than fine, eating each other up with passionate gazes.
'So there's no chance that we could have a hug?'
I didn't see that line in the script, thought Jeremy and shouted 'Cut!', wanting to ask where the hell Colin got that line from, but he noticed Bradley falling on top of Colin.
'What... What the hell are you doing? Somebody, take them off the bed!'
