Time Frame: Anytime between Seasons 1-3 where Arthur had just learned about the magic
Summary: Merlin burns his finger, and, despite initially teasing him, Arthur helps him.
Let's Go On An Adventure
Arthur swallowed before abandoning his important documents. Right now, making sure that Merlin was okay was more important.
"Sit down," he ordered gently before pulling out his chair.
Merlin raised his eyebrows in confusion. "Why?"
"So that I can look at it." Arthur pointed at the seat. "Sit."
The warlock hesitantly sat down, his eyes carefully trained on the prince. Arthur avoided looking into them as he soaked a small towel with water from his own goblet, which he used to treat the burn.
Merlin winced at the touch, but when Arthur was finished, he smiled gratefully. Arthur smiled back.
Now wasn't this just sweet? I think that it was. Gee, it would be a shame if I posted something really angsty soonish, wouldn't you agree?
Oh! I kind of sort of maybe ordered the 1981 movie version of the Excalibur sword online the other night, and I just got the email that it has been shipped!
