Arthur loved Gwen. At least, he did. But when she left, well love turns to hate. But Merlin didn't know this. And neither did he know if Arthur's true feelings.
Arthur made sure his face was tear-stained when Merlin came in. As expected, Merlin ran straight to him.
"Arthur? Are you ok?" Poor Merlin. He's just too nice, too näive.
Arthur starts to feel a bit guilty and doesn't trust himself to speak. So, when Merlin sits Arthur down in the bed, Arthur just buries his head in Merlin's skinny shoulder. Merlin hugs Arthur then.
The next day, Merlin comes across Arthurs diary. He (accidentally of course) flips to the latest entry and starts to read.
I can't stop thinking about Merlin. His smile, his laugh, even his childish antics and insults. Even his näivity is endearing. I stopped loving Gwen a long time ago, but the only safe way to get Merlin's affections is to be distraught. Shameful, I know, but does he know he drives me crazy!? His skin, his hair, even his ears. He's so sexy and loveable, it makes me want to kiss him and baby him at the same time. But he can never know. It'd never happen, and good forbid he ever find out. I'd never heard the end of it. I love it when he's tired and he stretches and messes up his hair. I sound like a girl but he looks so sexy like that. I wish he felt the same way. I want him to kiss me. I finally admitted it. I must remember to burn this.
Merlin was torn between a desire to punch, kiss, bed Arthur and laugh at the same time. So he made up his mind what to do. When he came to collect the dinner plates away, Merlin did exactly what Arthur said he loved in his diary. And sure enough, Arthur seemed to be very uncomfortable, pretending not to be staring (and failing miserably).
"So." Merlin began. "Been missing Gwen? Do you still love her?"
Arthur looks extremely surprised. "Have your affections been transferred to someone else?"
Arthur stands up and gets very close to Merlin.
"What on earth gave you that idea?" He asked.
"A little birdie told me" said Merlin, enjoying himself immensily.
Arthur raised his eyebrows.
"Oh yeah, and birdie also told me to do this," Merlin sealed the remaining space between them and kissed him.
