"Merlin."
"Go away."
Another step and he'll be too close.
"Merlin."
"Arthur please, get out."
Another step and Arthur's lips would be on his.
"Merlin."
His heart skipped a beat.
"Arthur..."
This is so wrong. I was born to create a better future for you. I was born to make you the once and future king. I should be by your side but I want to be even closer. I want to be with you. I want to feel you. Why are my hands trembling now? Why am I sweating?  Now that you're so close to me, I can feel your warmth on my skin. Your lips can almost touch mine. And oh god, I really want to kiss you.
"Arthur what are you doing...?"
Merlin couldn't look him in the eyes.
Arthur imprisoned him against the wall.
"Merlin tell me what I mean to you."
He knows. He is making fun of me. He realised it. He noticed my cheeks blush every time I see him naked. He noticed my eyes shine when he confesses his worries to me, to me only; when he whispers that I'm the only one who truly understands him.
Maybe one too many lingering glances, or a touch that had gone too far and became a soft caress on his shoulder...when I was nursing his wounds after a battle... and now he knows.
"Arthur leave me alone." A lonely tear ran down on his red cheek.
I'm your manservant, not your beloved.
"Say my name again."
Why are you doing this? You are mocking me. You already know what you mean to me.
You know everything. This time you read me, exactly like you say I read you.
Well, now I can't read you Arthur. I have no idea what you're doing.
"A-Arthur."
"Who am I to you?"
"You already know."
Arthur's lips touched Merlin's and the world exploded. His lips, his mind, his body was on fire.
I can't think. I just want his lips. I want to feel you, Arthur. I want you. I love you.
"I love you Merlin."
Merlin's heart screeched to a halt.
"I feel the same, Merlin. I love you... you're my destiny. You're my everything."
Uncontrollable tears started to roll down Merlin's face.
"Don't cry..." Arthur kissed his cheeks, licking away his tears.
Merlin grabbed him by his shoulders, enveloping Arthur in a hug and sighed.
"Don't go away. Stay with me. Never let me go."
Merlin said. He closed his eyes. He turned his brain off in that hug. Immobile. He just wanted to stay like that forever.

The End.
