Merlin the Idiot (слэш)

Arthur holds Merlin tenderly and tries not to let fear show on his face. "You idiot," he whispers as he tries to still Merlin's shaking. He's trembling as if they were out in the snowy mountains wearing only tunics and thin trousers, but they're not. It is the middle of summer and they are in the lush green forest that surrounds Camelot. It could be a beautiful clearing really, if only it wasn't splattered with Merlin's blood.
