    Summary

    “I can barely stand to be without you,” he murmurs. He laughs at himself, turning his face into the pillow, away from Merlin’s inquiring gaze, his cheeks turning pink. “I know it’s crazy. But since I first saw you, in the courtyard, I can’t think about anything else. It’s not like anything I’ve experienced before.”

     

    or,

    a rewrite of the pilot episode, in which Merlin does not learn Arthur's identity during their first altercation, and they let the tension between them do the talking instead

    Summary

    “Just stay up late, like the rest of us,” Bellamy said, turning back to his desk, “Or find somewhere else to sleep.”

    Futilely, he tried to zone back in on his homework. His eyes narrowed as he heard not the sound of the door, but a creak of bedsprings and the ruffle of covers.

    “Clarke?” Bellamy asked.

    “Yes?”

    He turned slowly to face her. “That is not what I meant.”

    Summary

    (our coming of age has come and gone; suddenly this summer it's clear.)


    Eddie looks down at the mug he's holding, and blinks.
    "Why does this mug say, ‘She thinks my tractor’s sexy’?”
    Richie, face stretched in every possible way—mouth agape and eyes threatening to pop out of his skull—can’t comprehend the question.
    “Dude, why are you in my house?”
    “Oh. Your cleaning lady let me in before she left. She seems nice.” Eddie takes a careful sip of his coffee.
    “What the shit?” Richie breathes.

    Summary

    Warmed by the happy company of friends and not a little bit of wine, Eddie can’t help how his gaze seems to wander ever over to Richie. Bathed as he is in the soft glow of the Christmas tree, the effect is quite handsome even despite the novelty reindeer antlers that Richie has been wearing all evening. The combination of all the wine, Richie’s appealingly broad shoulders, and the looming threat of mistletoe has some distant corner of Eddie’s mind screaming a muted warning, Danger, Will Robinson!

    Eddie ignores it and gets another drink.
