Back at it with the meta but I give you: Merlin being absolutely exhausted bc he’s been up all night working for Gaius or smth but anyway he’s tired and while Arthur is out with the knights, Merlin is cleaning his chambers and he just sits down on Arthur’s bed for a sec. Skip to 3 hours later and Arthur comes in from training to see Merlin curled up in a ball on his bed and he just kind of stops and smiles a little and then goes over and pulls the covers over him and kisses him on the head.
