Once again big thanks to aliendroid! XD And I do not own Merlin.

My Handsome Bride

Ch. 2 – Moving South

A month later there they sat in his father's office, all this was about to become a lot more serious, and they looked at each other.

He knew he looked good in his black suite, the Pendragon crest on his lapel and his hair combed to perfection, but Merlin…damn he looked good.

White dress pants and shirt but no tie, instead, he had gold chains with runes linked from the front of his shirt clad shoulder to the back that gave an exquisite shine, all linked to the Pendragon crest on his right shoulder.

His hair looked like it had been slightly tamed but not quite, he looked sinfully good if Arthur dared to admit.

"With this you are officially a married couple."

Arthur looked at Merlin one last time, the brunet kept his gazed on his ring finger, before looking at his father and the druid physician, Gaius.

"Starting today you are moving to the south wing, you can move your belongings there." Uther said in final tone cutting his son's protests short.

"B-But…"

"The basic necessities will do." It was final.

"But we…"

"Do you understand?" no reason to fight it.

"But father…"

"Do you understand?" It was decided

"Yes father."

Merlin did not see the reason for the argument, but he didn't have time to think more of it as the engagement party burst inside congratulating them.

…A&M…

"Come to think of it, I never came to this side of the house."

Merlin looked around, the south wing of the house was the farthest to the gates, and while being a part of the house it seemed like it was disconnected, it didn't belong.

"Of course you didn't," Arthur said ruffling his hair.

"I know I shouldn't ask this but, what's wrong? You've been acting strange for a while." Merlin wanted to ask if it was because of the marriage but refrained.

"The south wing house is only to be habited by newlyweds for a year." Arthur knew Merlin wouldn't get him.

"Hm ok..?" Merlin was too innocent sometimes.

"Merlin you're not quick on the uptake are you?"

"What are you talking about you prat?"

"To put it bluntly," Arthur sighed, "the south wing is for the newlyweds to live in alone…so they can…make a baby."

At that Merlin's eyes grew wide and his cheeks tainted red.

"Oh… I see."

Arthur didn't know what the hell they were doing there.

Even if they had to have a child it could only be a year from now, they were supposed to go to school right?

"It's a tradition so I have no choice," Arthur said as he walked inside the house. "I don't see the point of us living here."

He was so caught up in his refusal that Merlin's voice came suddenly.

"Arthur…tonight, just once will you…make love to me?"

"Where the hell did that come from?" But he refrained himself the moment he saw Merlin's shoulders slump, "Okay."

He wasn't sure himself of what he said but Merlin's smile made up for it.

…A&M….

Arthur walked inside the room around 10 pm and Merlin was seated by the window looking at the ring.

"Hey." Merlin looked startled but quickly got up, "If you were ready you should have called me."

And at that the brunet looked embarrassed not meeting his gaze.

Arthur sat by the bed and patted the place next to him, Merlin got closer, but didn't seat.

"Hey don't be scared or I'll get nervous too." Arthur looked up a small smirk tugging at the corner of his lips.

"I-I'm sorry I don't—woah!"

Merlin was turned quickly, his back hitting the bed, surprised by the press of Arthur's lips he gasped but relaxed a bit, until he felt a hand crawling inside his shirt.

"Wait stop!" His blue eyes looked startled

"I don't want it!" That was….confusing.

"I mean, it's not like I'm a woman and even if we are married, if you see me naked you'll be disgusted and—"

Arthur looked down at Merlin, this was getting really annoying, and he yanked the shirt letting the bottoms pop out. "W-What a—"

Suddenly he squeezed Merlin's crotch and the brunet gasped.

"You're not hard." He was so stunned he didn't even care to blush.

"Of course not! How could I in this situation?" At that Arthur looked really surprised.

"But I am" Without warning he grabbed for Merlin's hand and pressed it to his own crotch "See?"

Merlin looked away a deep blush creeping up his face, then Arthur's voice softened, became a seductive hush.

"Just let me make love to you ok?" At that Merlin looked at Arthur and nodded.

The blond took his own clothes off first and smirked when Merlin stared bluntly.

He then proceeded to take Merlin's clothes off, marveling at the miles of pale skin, the way his blush spread to his neck, and the way his chest raised every time he gasped.

He had never seen this Merlin, but he couldn't complain. Jesus, he was getting breathless real quick.

"Wait a sec." Arthur reached for the nightstand taking a bottle "Merlin listen to me, this might hurt a little but you have to relax," he pressed their lips together chastely.

"Ok?" He got a nod as a response.

He kissed his way down Merlin's body and nibbled at the inside of his tight as he coated his fingers in lube before pressing one in.

He could hear small whimpers falling from Merlin but nothing more so he looked up, only to see him biting his lip, hard.

"Idiot! If you want to bite on something use this." He traced his fingers on Merlin's lips and coaxed him to let them in.

The brunet bit softly down on two when he felt a second finger at his entrance. Arthur rubbed his cheek softly on Merlin's before whispering "Relax."

He continued to move his fingers in and out.

Getting it slick and ready, by the time he got to his third finger Merlin was moaning loudly.

His back was arching towards Arthur's body.

Merlin couldn't recognize his own voice through the moans rushing out of his body and he felt embarrassed for feeling empty when Arthur took his fingers out.

Arthur rolled down the condom and coated his erection with lube before positioning himself at Merlin's entrance.

He pushed in carefully but dear lord if Merlin wasn't quick in adjusting he would come just like that.

"Arthur." The moan was low and husky and boy if that didn't get Arthur's blood running south even quicker.

"Oh, i-it's getting b-bigger?" Merlin asked in surprised embarrassment.

"This is all your fault damn it." Who told him to be so cute?

Merlin reached for Arthur's face and caressed his cheek surprise running in his eyes as the blond leaned into the touch and placed small kisses on the inside of his hand.

Arthur started with a slow pace that started to increase as Merlin adjusted.

Quickly the slap, slap, slap of skin seemed louder than everything else as Arthur curved over Merlin and kissed him deeply.

The last thing that Arthur remembered was pulling out of Merlin, waves of pleasure still crashing in him, before he fell into unconsciousness.

…A&M…..

He came to slowly the next morning careful not to alert Arthur as he looked carefully at the ring once more.

"You never tire of it do you?" Merlin looked surprised trying to hide the hand under the pillow.

Arthur couldn't help but notice the way that the white sheet seemed to make Merlin's skin glow.

"Oh you're awake." Merlin was too nervous to say more and didn't meet Arthur's gaze.

The blond grabbed his chin and kissed him, rolling them so Merlin lay on top of him. "You're such an idiot Merlin."

"Prat."
