    Summary

    Ever since their father passed away, Arthur can admit that maybe he's a bit overly involved with his sister's family life. Sure his commitment to being a part of his two young niece's lives has cost him more than one boyfriend, but being the Favourite Uncle is more than worth it. That is, until Morgana hires Merlin, a young PhD student, as their new nanny.

    Suddenly, everyone is singing Merlin's praises. Though he tries to play nice, Arthur can’t help but feel like he’s being edged out of his own family every time Merlin shows up during his quality time with his nieces. Luckily, he has Christmas in the family cottage to look forward to -- six whole days of fun family traditions and absolutely no Merlin … or so he thinks.

    Summary

    “Gwen, it’s terrible,” Merlin said. “He’s polite! He’s kind, even!”

    “And that’s a problem?” Gwen asked, dryly.

    "I’m going to have to go through an entire week serving the perfect Golden Prince, and then go back to my Prince Prat, and I think it’s going to break me, Gwen. He’s going to get me used to it, and then it’ll be back to mile-long lists, and being called stupid instead of spectacular and how am I supposed to handle that?”

    Gwen said, hesitantly, “I thought you liked Arthur?”

    “I do,” Merlin said, sounding even lower than before. “I have to.”

    When a visiting Prince visits Camelot, and takes Merlin as his servant during his negotiations with The Crown, Merlin finds himself being seen in a way he'd always wished Arthur would see him, and doesn't know what to do with any of it.
