The Perils (Pros) of Undelivered Messages by heartsocold Ship: Merlin/Arthur Main Characters: Merlin, Arthur Rating: Teen Warnings: No archive warnings apply Major tags: Modern setting, get together, misunderstandings, fluff Summary: Merlin pulled out his phone, the blood draining from his face as he looks at the chat. “The message didn’t send. Shit.” Arthur stared at him in terror. He felt himself flush from head to toe, which was curious because he was pretty sure all the blood in his veins had turned to ice. He couldn’t believe this was happening; couldn’t believe he’d completely embarrassed himself like this. He briefly wondered if the mortification would hurry up and kill him, if only so that he didn’t have to deal with whatever came next.

It's you (I'm in love with) by heartsocold [G]

“I–please don’t leave me,” Nick begs and Charlie blinks at him in shock as the words register. “Leave–Nick, no, never! I would never, ever, leave you, sweetheart. Where is this coming from?” “The wedding’s off. Tara and Darcy broke things off and—” Nick cut himself off with another sob and Charlie’s heart aches. Or: the one where all their friends have broken up and Nick's struggling with coping.

treat me right (i want to tell you everything) by heartsocold Ship: Merlin/Arthur Main Characters: Merlin, Arthur Rating: General audiences Warnings: No archive warnings apply Major tags: established relationship, modern era, emotional hurt/comfort, insecure arthur, Summary: And Arthur’s so tired. He’s tired of being afraid, of always always waiting for the shoe to drop. He’s tired of always hiding himself from Merlin, of trying to be the person he thinks Merlin wants him to be—the person he thinks Merlin would like best. He’s tired of restraining himself. He’s tired of constantly burying the things he wants in fear that it will push Merlin away.

Forgiveness (is a nice thing to do) by heartsocold Ship: Merlin/Arthur Main Characters: Merlin, Arthur, Morgana Rating: General audiences Warnings: No archive warnings apply Major tags: modern setting, established relationship, fluff, hurt/comfort, forgiveness Summary: “You don’t like her, do you?” Arthur asks after they’ve been quiet for a while. “Fine. No, I don’t,” Merlin replies unapologetically. “I get that she’s your sister and you love her and I appreciate everything she’s done for you and Lily. I’m glad that you have her back now and that the kids get another aunt but I can’t forgive her for hurting you or Lily. Maybe one day I’ll be able to move past it but right now I want to wring her fucking neck every time I think about her.”
