Summary
The Prince, despite his best efforts, could not stop his hand from shaking as he held his sword to Merlin’s- no, not Merlin’s- pulse. The boy tried to crawl backwards a bit, away from the sharp edge, but Arthur just moved forward with him. The sword trembled with adrenaline against the sorcerer’s pale skin. Arthur couldn’t help but notice the boy’s ruddy cheeks, bright red from the cold and exertion. The snow made light dance in his tear tracks. The neckerchief that Merlin commonly wore was discarded on the snow; It must have fallen during the fight. It left his smooth neck exposed to the cold, riddled with goosebumps, and unmarred save for the blood-soaked steel, pressing in on his pulse point. Arthur could not deny that the… thing wearing Merlin’s face was beautiful.
Merlin is forced to reveal his powers during an attack. Chaos and angst ensue. I feel like most people give Arthur too much credit in magic reveals.

Summary
Merlin has carved out a nice little life for himself on the outskirts of Camelot, where magic is held in far less suspicion than in the citadel. It's lonely, but peaceful. One day, the Knights of Camelot come to arrest him for the sorcery he has failed to hide well enough, and a hostile, awkward first meeting with the prince will force him into new situations and change his life in ways he never thought possible.
In which Merlin doesn't go to Camelot, but meets Arthur anyway.

Summary
Everyone had moved on since the end of Voldemort, but only a few had earned the luxury of carrying on with no baggage. In his whole life, nothing had been easy, but Harry would keep trying, taking a deep breath before diving into the unknown waters of life, which he had yet to fully grasp.
In the midst of the tumult, he was greeted by an old friend and the same bright smile.

Summary
***end of series spoiler, but I fix it so it's ok!!
Merlin refuses to accept the loss of Arthur Pendragon. After his death, he still brings him to the lake, but with the hope of resurrecting him. After his success, both he and Arthur are weak. With Morgana's servants still fighting and searching for Arthur, Gwen and Merlin agree that it would be safest for Arthur to disappear for a while. Both Arthur and Merlin aren't as strong as they used to be, but they ride off far away together (despite tensions stemming from Merlin's magic) to pass the time and regain their strength in secret.
Basically, Arthur's dream of running off and living on a farm with Merlin comes true, but he's still mad and confused about everything for a bit. They'll eventually work all of their shit out :)
