 Dear Arthur

Summary: Morgana, Arthur and Merlin are childhood friends. While Arthur has always been hopelessly in love with Morgana, he doesn't realise Merlin's feelings for him. When Uther gets a new job the family moves from England to New York, leaving Arthur with no connection to his friends but a few E-Mails. Eventually Morgana moves on, but Merlin can't. He keeps writing to Arthur, signing with Morgana's name because he knows it makes him happy and any way, Arthur's far away, isn't he? But ten years later Arthur annouces his visit and upon his arrival it's clear that his feelings haven't changed one bit. But will he realise that Morgana isn't the one he has felt so close to over these last years? And how can Merlin deal with all his lies when Arthur is staying at his apartment, awakening more than just memories in him...?

 Weave The Sunlight

Summary: Modern AU In, which Arthur is the least romantic romance novelist in the world, and Merlin is the only person who can cure his writers' block. Arthur keeps losing control of his feet, and Merlin refuses be wooed by witticisms alone--much to Arthur's chagrin.

http://camelotsolstice.livejournal.com/15616.html

 Wild Nights

Summary: Arthur reads Merlin poetry.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/816894

 Journey Into The Interior

Summary: Merlin works in Camelot Massage Parlour, London. This is where Arthur finds him. | 'Arthur' chokes and flushes, as though they're not standing in an erotic massage parlour, as though 'Arthur' doesn't have a copy of Penthouse held loosely in one hand. "I'm hardly trying to pick you up, Merlin." He chuckles a little bitterly. "Look, d'you really not know who I am?"

http://archiveofourown.org/works/28075?view_adult=true

 High School Reunion

http://archiveofourown.org/works/791552

 Six Am On A Snowy Sunday

Summary: Merlin usually spends all day in bed on Sunday, but with Arthur Pendragon as a flat mate at University, and with early morning snow, Merlin should have expected to be pulled out of bed at an ungodly hour. However after a while, both of the boys want warming up. AU. Slight swearing. One shot.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/816855

 ‘Tis A Pity He’s A Whore

Summary: Arthur is a rich businessman - Merlin is the down-on-his-luck hooker he picks up almost by accident one night. Things Happen Between Them - and not just the things Arthur paid for.

 The In Laws

Summary: Newly married, Arthur and Merlin invite the in-laws over.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/698333

  Out Of Body

Summary: Finding out that his best friend is gay shouldn't be a big deal. But then, catching Merlin wanking to gay porn shouldn't turn Arthur on, either. With his plans for uni in shambles and his position on the high school footie team lost to injury, Arthur's determined not to disappoint his father any further. Running away from Merlin seems like the easiest thing to do, but his denial might cost him everything.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/474642?view_full_work=true

 The Advert Of Coffee

Summary: Merlin's daily visits to Castle Grounds for his coffee fix have become something of a habit, so when everyone else goes home for the semester, he keeps them up. The baristas seem to like him, for the most part, and as Christmas approaches, things start to get interesting.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/301461

 Stop Watching

Summary: Browbeaten and threatened into denying himself by a domineering father who refuses to be embarrassed by even a whisper that his son is gay, Arthur has given up everything that he's ever wanted in his life to keep the peace -- shaky as it is -- with Uther. Arthur Pendragon, a former track and field Olympic medallist, is the well-liked and successful track coach of Camelot High, with a long list of former students making the national teams. For years, he's been courted to join the coaching staff at Ivy League universities, with the national team, for the Olympic team, but instead of jumping at the opportunities in front of him, Arthur keeps his head down and stays at Camelot out of a feeling responsibility for his students, duty to the school, and a tiny, little bit of fear.

It's the first day of school and a new runner joins Arthur's team -- a senior transfer from Ealdor High. Merlin Emrys is out, open, impossibly friendly, immediately popular, and impossibly persistent. Merlin has two goals: the Olympics and Arthur. http://archiveofourown.org/works/417464

 Paint The World Orange And Blue

Summary: Armed with pen, paper and mugs of tea, Merlin created a relatively successful series of graphic novels. Armed with determination, sarcasm and more tea, he signs a deal with Pendragon Pictures to turn his first novel into a film. Merlin's relationship with Arthur Pendragon starts with TWO (2) slammed doors and ONE (1) severely bruised ego, but that's not at all how it ends.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/581626

 Second Choice

Summary: It is always Gwen whom Arthur chooses first. It doesn’t matter if she’s taken, married, engaged, widowed or single. It is always Gwen whom Arthur chooses first. And it is Merlin whom Arthur turns to when that relationship goes, as it inevitably does, rotten.

Or Merlin gets sick of seeing Gwen and Arthur together and runs away. Then comes back.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/409341/chapters/678892

 Small Weird Love

Summary: Merlin is thirteen and in love when he kisses Arthur for the first time. His skin is always too tight, there’s constantly the taste of chlorine in his mouth, and a lot of things-too many things-are left unsaid. It’s very complicated and very confusing, not helped by the fact that Arthur doesn’t seem to know what he wants either. Early teenage awakenings, unrequited love, pining, coming of age, and feelings. Lots of feelings. http://archiveofourown.org/works/496608/chapters/869866

 No One Else To Find

Summary: Modern AU, Arthur is in the closet and in denial of his homosexuality until he meets Merlin.

http://darkdeeplakes.livejournal.com/2935.html

http://archiveofourown.org/works/699325

 One Night Stands Are A Great Way To Meet People

Summary: First there's a one night stand, then there's courting. Merlin thinks they've probably done things a bit backwards.

 This Silly Old Dance Is Perfect For Two

Summary: Disowned by his father, Arthur Pendragon has been forced to fend for himself for the first time in his life. One Monday morning, an advert in the jobs section of the Camelot Chronicle catches his eye. Little does he know that as soon as he circles this advertisement, his life will be taken down a completely unexpected path: a path involving art, a crisis of identity and - most importantly - a mysterious young artist, who goes by the name of Merlin Emrys.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/742454/chapters/1382825

http://archiveofourown.org/works/789296

http://archiveofourown.org/works/314464?view_adult=true

 Driving Lessons

http://archiveofourown.org/works/425397

 Tug Of War

Summary: Arthur really should have listened when Morgana told him that having a child at someone else's demand was a bad idea because, though he'll never say as much aloud, she was correct. It started off with Merlin spilling coffee (which was far too common, really); there was a bit of paint and a baby in the middle and then, in the end, there was a break-up...Except, that wasn't the end at all. Arthur wouldn't let it be. http://archiveofourown.org/works/439581

 We’re Lost, It’s Cold, and There Are Dragons Out There

Summary: Modern AU with magic. Arthur is relatively sure that Bear Gryllis has never had to deal with anything like the world’s most aggravating baby dragon when he was out surviving in the wilderness. Merlin thinks that Arthur has taken the whole “magic reveal” thing pretty damn well, which might have something to do with Merlin saving Arthur’s life just now when the helicopter crashed. The dragon thinks they’re both idiots.

(Alternately known as 'see the prompt because author is shite at coming up with summaries.' :-))

Warnings: Possible triggers for homophobia and homophobic violence. Considering the prompt, this is a modern day AU (though not reincarnation), set in America. The boys are 17-18 and in their senior year of high school.

 Quality Alone Time

Summary: In a room-sharing situation, quality alone time can be hard to come by (puns intended). But Gwaine, Merlin and Arthur agree on a schedule that works beautifully-until it doesn't. Merlin/Arthur with a side of Gwaine. Smut and fluff - the usual.

 After School Special

Summary: Like most teenage boys, Merlin's life revolved around Call of Duty and putting a minimal amount of effort into school to get the maximum result, while dedicating his remaining free time to more important pursuits, like getting laid.

Summary: Merlin is an indie geek who works at a used books, cd and record store. (And by indie geek anon would like the whole stereotype.

 Oscillate Wildly

Summary: Fucking Arthur, he thinks, pushing his head against the seat. It’s not so much that he’s breaking promises left and right by bringing up that thing between them in public again; it's just his ever-irritating sense of entitlement. It’s Arthur being a prick and thinking he can go around doing anything he wants sometimes, because obviously, obviously the entire world exists only to amuse him.

Summary: On the last leg of his American book tour, successful author Arthur Pendragon is instantly smitten by a portrait of a gorgeous young actor who’d once performed in his hotel.

 Not Every Win Gets A Medal

It wasn’t that Arthur was obsessed; it was just that he couldn’t stop thinking about the Irish archer with those full, gorgeous lips. He’d nearly spaced out during an early qualifying heat thinking about what he’d like to do to that mouth (and also the rest of him). The opportunity to do anything about it had never presented itself and, shamefully, Arthur was pretty sure he’d sacrifice his medals for it to happen at this point.

When a deeply-closeted Arthur Pendragon finally earns a spot in Camelot's first XI, he's dead set on breaking records, not one of sport's last taboos.

 A Story Of Love And Menswear

Summary: Modern AU set in the menswear department of a large store (and shamelessly based on my own part time job at BHS during my A Levels where weekend menswear was always ridiculously quiet and staffed by a team of two). 17 year old Arthur is the Saturday supervisor on Menswear, and takes his job very seriously indeed.

Modern AU.

There he meets the lively Merlin, who is as infuriating as he is intoxicating. One week long they have a fiery affair, in which Arthur feels more alive than he has ever been.

And then Merlin has to leave. Because of some idiotic rule Merlin has, he leaves Arthur with no personal contacts and no way of ever getting back in contact with him again. No need to ruin the perfect memories.

But Arthur wouldn't be Arthur if he left it at that, and once he is back home he is determined to find Merlin and keep him in his life.

Summary: A young Arthur is caught driving under the influence of alcohol. Apart from the fines, his community service/punishment from Uther is to work for a charity for people with spinal cord injuries. That's where he meets Merlin, a young man of his own age. Merlin is the most wonderful and annoying person Arthur has ever met. Merlin is also paralysed from the waist down after having been hit by a drunk driver.

 You’re Are Something (I’m Good At)

Summary: Modern (American) AU: Arthur's fairly sure he's in love with Merlin (who has a no underwear rule on the sofa), Morgana yells a lot (but it's because she loves a lot) and everyone gets a happy ending.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/314480

 Every Morning (With You)

Summary: Set sometime after You Are Something (I'm Good At), where it's mostly just mindless fluff and sex because Merlin loves waking up next to Arthur.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/637722?view_adult=true

 Coffee Wars

Summary: In which true friends steal your coffee, secret lovers change the topic every time it comes too close to the truth (but not indefinitely), Gwen gives out free muffins, Leon likes figures, and Morgana may or may not use her prophetic dreams to cheat on gambling.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/401282

 An Issue of Mind Over Matter

Summary: Where Arthur is older than Merlin maybe 30/18 and Merlin doesn't tell Arthur that he's still a virgin, because he fears that Arthur wouldn't have had sex with him.

But soon Arthur realizes that something is wrong with Merlin with the way the boy is making noises of deep destress when Arthur's pushing inside of him.

http://rotrude.livejournal.com/96824.html

 Jigsaw

Summary: Arthur and Merlin broke up when Merlin moved away at 16, and they never thought they'd see each other again. It's been two years, and Arthur gets more than he expected when he moves into student accommodation for his first year of university.

 The Son-in-Law

Summary: ”Your son is a major arse.”

”Who is this?”

”This is Merlin Emrys. The one who dated your son for four years, and I just called you to inform that your son is an arse and I can’t believe I put up with him all that time. Is it only him or is it some Pendragon thing I wasn’t aware of?”

http://archiveofourown.org/works/293817

 A marriage of Convenience

Summary:Uther had died and his will stipulated that Arthur was to marry within six months and stay married for at least five years or he would lose the company he had helped his father build. As luck would have it gay marriage had been legalised in the months before his father's death. Now all he needed to do was find someone he could bare to live with for five years and the company would be his.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/2357906?view_full_work=true

 Shelter from the Storm

Summary: Merlin's life on the street is made bearable by Arthur, his trusted food bringer. He comes everyday, rain or shine. They never talk, but their daily appointment is something neither of the two misses.

Then one day a storm comes to town and Merlin thinks it will be impossible for Arthur to bring him food...

But as it turns out, that's the night Merlin gets more than a warm meal.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/508248

 Love Well, Dine Well

Summary: I wrote this story a couple of years ago because it was autumn, and I baked a tray of pumpkin muffins. I love Merlin as an eccentric baker who woos Arthur with good food. There is nothing complicated here: just a little bit of flour on cheekbones, free fudge squares, and a happy ending.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/757995

 Wish I Could Stay

Summary: Merlin leads a very lonely life until a mugging and a misunderstanding accidentally throws him into the crazy world of the handsome bloke that comes to his coffee kiosk. (Based on the film, While You Were Sleeping.)

 Mask’s On

Summary: Arthur goes to a Halloween party and has sex with a masked man named Merlin. They agree to keep in touch, but Merlin refuses to remove his mask even after the party has ended. As long as they stay friends with benefits, Arthur figures it shouldn't really matter. That's the problem.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/952433?view_adult=true&view_full_work=true

 Dickmagician

Summary: Arthur just needed to know that he could take a good dick pic. He wasn't going to do anything with it, obviously. It was just an experiment, just a test he had to prove to himself that he could pass.

Drunk Arthur had other ideas, though. Who knew there were people online willing to review other people's dick pics?

And frankly, Arthur was never going to settle for anything less than an A+.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/1582922?view_full_work=true

 Of Pratty Mouth and Knobbly Knees

Summary: Merlin was able to more or less ignore his attraction to Arthur for most of the term. But then that one night happens and nothing is ever the same again.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/570044

 Stage Kiss

Summary: Merlin and Arthur should kiss each other in a scene they are practicing together for their theatre class. They really, really don’t want to do that, nor are they keen on spending all the practice time together. But they really don’t want to fail the course either, damn it. Insert Morgana.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/419437

 V is for Valentine’s

Summary: Wherein Arthur hates Valentines, Merlin tries to make a Flying Scotsman and everybody thinks they are together. Even though they're not.

 The Pope, A Singing Nun, and Arthur Walk Into a Library

http://archiveofourown.org/works/210346

 An Exchange of Favours

Summary: When Merlin gets a stranger out of a jam, he asks him to pretend to be his boyfriend for the night in order to make his ex jealous.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/1013823?view_adult=true

 The Great Pumpkin69

Summary: Merlin and Gwen frequent the late night hours. Or at least Merlin does, Gwen makes a valiant effort before hogging Merlin's bed. One 'hangover day', he meets a knight in shining armour (almost literally too!) who saved him from getting beat up by a couple thugs.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/593477

 Teach me! Merlin

Summary: Modern AU. Merlin is a computer tech, Arthur is a closeted corporate type with a big ole' gay porn stash. Much staring at hands, awkwardness and eventual sex ensues.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/47080?view_adult=true

 Arthur Pendragon Is Many Things

Summary: Arthur Pendragon can pinpoint the exact moment his life started going downhill. It wasn't when he came out at thirteen because his childhood had been a relatively happy one, if a little light on the expression of affection and feelings. Because his life isn't the plot of a romcom, it wasn't the moment he met Merlin at a Freshers Week party, got in a fight with him, and subsequently threw up on his shoes. No, the moment his life really went to shit was the day Gwen and Lance got together and broke the pact they had all made four years ago to date outside their group of friends. Because everyone knows that couples spawn other couples, and once all the couples have gotten together, the only thing they have left to do is set up the rest of their single friends. And when you've been secretly pining away after your best mate for the better part of a decade as Arthur has, you'd feel understandably nervous when everyone is suddenly fixated on finding the perfect match for Merlin.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/929300

 The House of Cards

Summary: Three years ago Arthur was happy and in love. Two years ago he was trying to cope with heartbreak. One year ago he was married to a woman he loved but was not in love with. Now Arthur's life is back on track, he's divorcing his wife and beginning to feel alive again, when Merlin returns to town and makes Arthur realise he's not as over his ex as he thought.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/492646

 Truth or Dare

Summary: High School!AU: Gwaine and Merlin are best friends. They've been playing a constant game of Truth and Dare for three terms now. So when Gwaine finds out that Merlin has a crush on Arthur it's only natural that he dares Merlin to wank in Arthur's bed.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/190016

 Minor Adjustments

Summary: Merlin tests new products for a sex toy company. Arthur is the head designer. It is his job to observe these tests, ask questions and take notes. It's all very professional and clinical, until Arthur gets hard during a session.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/406584

 Natural Light: The Photographer’s Friend

Summary: Arthur is a photographer, and one of his favourite subjects is Merlin: Merlin is photographed best of all when Arthur is inside him, and Arthur takes advantage of this fact in a hotel room one morning. Explicit.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/2167875

 Alpha to Your Omega

Summary: “He’s ridiculously ticklish,” Gwaine announces, oblivious to Arthur’s mood.

Arthur stalks towards the fire, blood boiling in his veins as he sees Gwaine’s fingers splayed over the skin of Merlin’s exposed belly. He growls again.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/428741

Crash Into Me

Summary: At the end of their first year of university Arthur decides to take Merlin on a road trip, and holds on to the hope that before it's over they'll be more than just friends. Morgana decides she and Gwen are going to come along, and Merlin and Gwen decide they're both insane. Along the (admittedly short) road to true love there are roller coasters, flat tires, chocolate, sheep, pillow fights, food fights, keychains, and memories that will last a lifetime.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/111251

 Not an Act, But a Habit

Summary: Arthur is a spoiled university student. After one transgression too many, Arthur's father makes him spend a night at a hostel for homeless youth to give him a reality check. While there, he meets a tough-talking kid who is more than he seems. In spite of themselves, they become inseparable.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/309049?view_adult=true

 Complications (with spiderman t-shirts and optimistic outcomes)

Summary: Arthur thinks Merlin is an embarrassment to the country (especially in that tattered Spiderman shirt) and is in favour of sending him packing as soon as he meets him. Merlin thinks Arthur is self-entitled and would really rather not be in the same country, much less the room across the hall from him. Somewhere along the way there's a reporter who tells them things they don't want to hear (Merlin – a decent swimmer? Christ. Arthur and Gwaine – leading prospects for gold in beach volleyball? That won't deflate their egos any, will it?), a bit of stalking and a lot of sentences that start with "So..." but maybe (Arthur makes no promises) it'll all work out in the end.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/476860

 Vicarious Matchmaking

Summary: Merlin is seventeen, in the upper sixth-form and has no boyfriend. He might want one. His best friend, Arthur, is equally seventeen, has been around, and wants to help Merlin with everything he’s got. Cue his matchmaking efforts. Except, being a teenager is more confusing than it seems

http://archiveofourown.org/works/411129?view_adult=true

 Nothing Like A Good Ghost Hunt

Summary: Merlin and his team are commissioned to investigate the hauntings at the famed Camelot Castle and get more than they bargained for when they find that the paranormal investigation team led by Arthur Pendragon has been commissioned to do the same.

http://thecheekydragon.livejournal.com/69604.html

 Structural Beauty

Summary: Merlin is an osteologist (or physical anthropologist, if you're from over the pond) far too fascinated with his latest skeleton. In order to find him a man with some flesh still attached to his bones, Gwen and Morgana take him to a fancy dress Halloween party where Merlin has a strange cocktail and things don't go as planned at all.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/388298

 The Break-up Box

 Annoying Mocha Latte

Summary: Merlin's favourite coffeeshop The Round Table have two baristas that he ends up bonding with. Gwen, the nice one(his favourite), wants to hook him up with this rather douchey barista called Arthur.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/994744?view_full_work=true

 Past These Country Lines

Summary: Merlin's never skipped school, and he's never had a real conversation with Arthur Pendragon. Both of those things are about to change.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/379756?page=1&view_adult=true

 Les Lettres Defi

Summary: Merlin is Arthur's new secretary and is oddly appealing. Also, just to complicate things, eccentric Uther has introduced a penpal scheme within the office to promote team unity, and despite initially being at blows, Arthur and his anonymous penpal are getting on extremely well. Somehow Arthur has to balance his physical attraction to Merlin, and his emotional attraction to his penpal... While baking some exceptional puddings, because lemon drizzle cake is nice.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/614993?view_adult=true

 Meet Me In Gay Paris

Summary: Merlin was 87.3% sure he was in love. To be honest, it was hard for him to tell, because how does one fall in love with someone they’ve never met in person?

http://merlinxarthur.livejournal.com/2653030.html

 Our Ungodly Hour

Summary: WARNINGS: Domestic Violence

“Merlin, are you alright?” He hoped Merlin didn’t hear the way his throat had tightened or the dread that constricted it. "No.”

Written for the kink_me prompt: Modern!AU. Merlin is stuck in an abusive relationship, he meets Arthur and they become friends (would love it if one of them or both fall in love with the other), Arthur finds out and tries to help

http://archiveofourown.org/works/266547?view_adult=true

 Arthur Thinks Words Are Pesky (And So Is Morgana)

Summary: A drunken kiss complicates the relationship between best friends Arthur and Merlin. The problem is that Arthur is suddenly not on the best of terms with words and he also has terrible ideas when drinking. He also thinks that Morgana is frankly just no help in sorting it all out (why does Arthur call her again?)

http://archiveofourown.org/works/346338

 Flat 6

Summary: There are three things Merlin has always found it difficult to say no to. The posh git in Flat 6 might just be the fourth.

http://archiveofourown.org/collections/Merlin_Holidays/works/588932

 All of This Was Only Coming Back to You

Summary: Arthur and Merlin drift apart and break up, but sometimes the end isn’t always a forever kind of thing.

 Better Than a Happily Every After

Summary: Merlin sticks it to fairytale cliches everywhere, and still manages to get the better end of the deal.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/393095

 Dealer Takes All

Summary: In which Arthur’s the prat son of a car dealership owner and Merlin’s the lowly title/wholesale/billing clerk. (And then there’s sex. And possibly feelings. Oh who am I kidding, there’s so much schmoop in here you will need a damn dentist.)

http://archiveofourown.org/works/434228

 Exhibit

Summary: Merlin and Arthur are art students at the prestigious Maryland Institute of Art. And they hate each other. Or do they?

http://archiveofourown.org/works/579960/chapters/1040792

 Game, Set, Match

Summary: All of Britain watches as Arthur Pendragon (golden boy of tennis) gets injured at Wimbledon with the London Olympics looming only a few weeks away. Not many people watch as Merlin Emrys (newbie on the medical team) works to get Arthur back into shape, but maybe that’s just as well because Merlin gets a bit more entangled than he planned.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/474708

 Firsts For Everything

Summary: Sometimes, people seem to forget, in all this fighting for equal rights, that 'gay couples' are just 'couples'. Merlin and Arthur, and a first-time hundreds of lives in the making.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/470129?view_adult=true&view_full_work=true

 An Absence of History

Summary: Two months of movies, dinner dates, texts, hour-long phone calls, and kisses, many many kisses, and Arthur was still wanting.

 Aquamarine

Summary: Arthur's summer is all about swimming. Until he meets Merlin. Swim team AU.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/476560

Rules for Roommates

Summary: Modern AU. Arthur works in publishing and is ashamed to tell anyone he's secretly editing erotica, and being bullied by one of his authors - the arrogant 'Lake Anders'. He's also just taken in a new roommate, the adorable Merlin Emrys, who is definitely Not His Type. Or is he?

http://pickitup.livejournal.com/45752.html

 He Was Sleeping

http://kinkme-merlin.livejournal.com/2936.html?thread=1367928#t1367928

 Timshel

Summary: Merlin is definitely supposed to work for Arthur, but spends most of his time mocking Arthur's dress sense, berating him via IM with Morgana, sending Gwen capslock-filled emails about him and, most of all, trying not to fall in love with the shiny-shoed ponce. Arthur, meanwhile, is definitely supposed to be taking over his father's company some day, but instead spends most of his time scowling at Merlin, making lists about him, trying to find excuses to fire him and, most of all, trying to pretend he is totally not head-over-heels for the jumped up little upstart. Someone's got to make some difficult choices eventually, and this can only lead to one thing: angst. Or hilarity. Or, embarrassingly enough, self-discovery.

http://proems.livejournal.com/4856.html

 Say Yes (the one with the piano sex)

Summary: Merlin has a bad day, Arthur proposes, and then there's sex against a piano.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/252210

 High Seas

Summary: He thought traveling by sea was a harsh, if brief experience. Try being someone’s captive. Now add on top of that, the Captain is a total prat with no sense of personal space and now you know what this feels like.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/293949

 The Anti-Wingman

Summary: “You’re a single male in a pub whose friends are trying to find him a girl to shag, and you’re not happy about it. When looking for an escape route, you ignore the myriad of other singletons here and head straight for me, the undeniably gorgeous and evidently rich man at the bar. You also haven’t heard of Morgana le Fay. You, my friend, are by all means a raving homosexual.”

Or, how Merlin found the worst anti-wingman in the world, but did manage to avoid the woman with a beard.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/408441

 Out Of Words

Summary: After Merlin came out the year before, he has really tried to keep his head down, but when jock Arthur Pendragon demands his help for upcoming A-levels, he finds himself in a new situation that Merlin isn't entirely sure is without strings. Between suspicion for Arthur's motives and Gwaine's assurance that Merlin will be shagged at some point in his life, he just wants to survive his last year of high school.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/840184?view_adult=true

 Age is But a Number

Summary: Merlin is sixteen and Arthur is twenty six, but that doesn't matter to them. To them, age isn't important. They just want to be together and be happy even if no one else approves.

Just a little one-shot of Merlin going over to Arthur's after school.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/2001957

 A Police Officer and a Baker Walk Into a Bar

Summary: Merlin is of the opinion that sex really doesn't have to be taken super seriously all the time.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/2107677

 Large Expectations

Summary: Years of bad experiences have told Arthur that big isn’t always better. Can Merlin prove him wrong?

http://archiveofourown.org/works/1323151

 Ashes to Embers

Merlin is trapped in his apartment and the building is on fire. Smoke is quickly filling the small space and chocking out all the air, while flames and heat are consuming the place from the outside in. Arthur and his men the "knights" are firefighters. Arthur saves Merlin.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/905197

 The Difference of You

It’s not that Arthur Pendragon can’t get girls to fall for him; it’s just that he can’t seem to keep them around. Relationships and Arthur aren't on the same page at all, really, but one day there's Merlin on a bus and then it's different.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/453042#main

 Spartacus and the Open Taxi Door

Merlin works in a coffee shop, is a literature student, lives with Will, flirts with Gwaine, is friends with Gwen and has a stunningly normal life. Until Arthur walks in and changes everything.
