Summary: "You're like a toasty campfire Merlin"
A/N: Wow! Thank you guys so much for the great reviews and the wonderful responses. Here is the Fluffy Counterpart two the last Freylin drabble.
Freylin 11: Warm
Merlin and Freya's eyes met for the seventh time – Merlin had counted – and he realized what she wanted. He couldn't help but blush and bury his nose in his book. But in the quiet, tranquil atmosphere of Camelot's library, the only sound Merlin could hear was the beating of his own heart. He heard Freya shuffling around again, rubbing her arms to keep warm.
Finally, Merlin rolled his eyes and patted the space on his bench. Freya's eyes brightened almost comically, she dropped her books on herb lore, closed their gap in seconds, and snuggled into Merlin's side. She settled for reading the book in his hands. Merlin blushed once more, but he couldn't deny that he didn't like the feel of her head buried against his chest.
He wrapped his arms around Freya, keeping her comfortable, and they silently studied together, the image of an angry physician threatening them otherwise played in their minds. Curiosity finally got the best of Merlin.
"Why do you do that?" He broke the sacred silence in the library. Freya loosened her arms around Merlin looked up with her large doe like brown eyes.
"Do what?" She asked innocently in that soft twinkling voice of hers. Merlin felt like he was melting. Man up Merlin, he reprimanded himself; you're turning into a girl. With newly honed firm features, he gestured to Freya's head lying on his chest.
Freya blushed brilliantly, and shuffled away. "I-I…umm…y-you're really warm Merlin," She whispered demurely. Freya sat eye to eye with Merlin, her face was close enough for Merlin to lean over and kiss. But he waited. Freya shyly placed her hand on his chest, over his heart. "I can feel the warmth of your magic right here; you're like a toasty fireplace Merlin," She giggled. He quirked an eyebrow.
"Am I now?"
"Y-yes…" She shivered again. Merlin rolled his eyes and pulled her on his lap. She fit against him so perfectly; it pulled Merlin's heart-strings to just think about it.
"Then let me warm you," He whispered huskily into her ear and kissed her softly.
Hehe, this makes me giggle every time! Can you tell I'm a hopeless romantic?
Review, reivew, review.
