A/N: This is based on an episode of F.R.I.E.N.D.S. I just forgot which episode.
"Hey Merlin, are you free today?"
Merlin blinked before answering Arthur. Meanwhile, Arthur was grinning at him. Arthur never grins like that, except when he's planning something ridiculous.
"Uh…. You're not having a lecture, are you?"
Arthur's eyebrows furrowed, and then looked at Merlin incredulously before grinning again.
"Nope"
"Then free as a bird! What is it?"
Arthur's grin went wider, making Merlin shiver inwardly. 'There's a catch, there's always a catch whenever Arthur acted like that.'
"Dad wants to play basketball with you"
"Really? He asked for me?"
"Actually, he asked for Meredith"
"And you didn't even bother correcting him?"
"It was very funny, so I didn't bother"
"Geez… thanks for the support"
"You're welcome"
