This idea came to me while I was watching an Arthur/Merlin vid on YouTube. Hope you Enjoy!

Merlin stood there determination shining in his sapphire-blue eyes, goblet in hand. He turned to face Bayard, arm outstretched, as if to prove his point, then he spun round and raised the goblet to King Uther, and finally turned to face me, the goodbye, I never wanted to hear screamed out through those blue orbs, and my heart broke, I couldn't lose Merlin, we haven't done all the things we were meant to do.

With shaky hands he lifted the goblet to his lips and downed its content in three loud gulps, I looked at him with fear in my eyes; brimming with tears. He stood there awkwardly for a moment before turning to look at Bayard with accusing eyes and speaking. "It's fine".

I breathed out a sigh of relief and began to return to my seat. Merlin's struggling breaths stopped me in my tracks, I turned as he spluttered and choked for breath, the worry and betrayal in my eyes, visible to everyone. Then with an ear splitting clunk he fell to the floor, motionless; the goblet rolled out of his hand a came to a halt a few centimetres away from his lifeless form.

I ran forward and fell to my knees beside him, my heart pounding in my ears, and I looked down at him. His red clothing bright in contrast to his pale, white skin, his long slender throat leading up to his high cheek bones and his elf like ears, my eyes slid down to the lids that now cover his shockingly, striking blue eyes then down to his full, pink lips, slightly parted.

Without a moments hesitation I leant down and covered those full, pink lips with my own; gasps of surprise filled the hall.

Everything disappeared, only me and Merlin in the entire world. I gasped slightly when his lips moved under mine, tongue stroking my bottom lip, begging for entrance, and I parted them allowing him to probe his tongue into my mouth, as my own explored his warm, sweet mouth. When our tongues met we both moaned in pleasure, then I realised we were in the middle of the banquette hall, in the middle of a peace treaty.

I pulled away reluctantly, immediately feeling the loss of warmth, I looked around at shocked faces and then my eyes rested on my father's unreadable expression.

"Finally" he breathed, and lightly patted me on the shoulder to show his approval. Of all the things I thought my father would have said that was not one of them, cheers and wolf whistles surrounded us as I helped Merlin off the floor and helped him to Gaius's Chambers. The sound faded away as I closed the doors, Merlin beside me with a faint pink blush covering his neck, cheeks and ears, making him look adorably cute. We walked the corridors and round the corner, before I was pushed against the wall by a lustful Merlin, eyes dark and his lips wet.

"Merlin you need to see Gai-" My words were cut off by those wet, pink lips, as they claimed mine again, his arms snaked around my waist and up my tunic. As his fingers touched my hot skin I melted into him, giving him everything I am, everything I was and everything I will be.

oOoOo

I woke up to the feel of hot skin under my palm, and bright blue eyes staring into mine. The events of the night unfolded in my mind as I took in the form of my friend and Lover.

"I Love You Arthur" Merlin whispered, the love clearly visible in his eyes.

"I Love You Too Merlin" I replied, locking my eyes in his and I bent down to place a light but passionate kiss on my lovers lips.
