27 DRESSES
Merlin felt his mouth tighten as Arthur continued to insist that brides lived to make people miserable on their wedding days. Pulling one of the outfits from the closet he was determined to prove him wrong.

Arthur laughed as Merlin twirled showing him just how hideous some of the dresses were. The pictures would just help to emphasise his article, however this justification didn’t stop the flicker of guilt which spread through him at just what he was doing.
A cough interrupted his musing and he looked up. Arthur found that he had to make a conscious effort not to let his jaw drop. The dress Merlin was wearing was tiny, pink, and Arthur had to stop himself drooling at the sight of Merlin in it. Coughing and shaking his head he took a quick picture and decided that he could make more than one copy of that particular one.

While standing in the kitchen waiting for the kettle to boil Merlin realised just how much fun he was having with the cynical blonde. Shaking his head with a chuckle at the memory of Arthur’s face when he saw him in the cowgirl outfit, Merlin finished making the tea. He took both cups through to the living room with him and handed one to the blonde, while he took the chair opposite and put his feet up on the coffee table in front of him.
“27 Dresses.” Arthur said looking at Merlin “You’ve been a bridesmaid twenty seven times.” Arthur said in disbelief looking through the pictures on his camera.
“Strange as it may sounds, I’ve had a lot of good times in those dresses.” Merlin replied with a small smile on his face.
“Someday, God knows when. But someday it will be my day, and then all those people will be there for me.” Merlin was looking towards the closet with a small smile on his face. Arthur took another picture of him. The flash caught his attention and he looked back breaking away from his thoughts about his future. Looking at the blonde he saw a cynical smile and looked away growing angry.
“What do you care anyway? Marriage means nothing to you.” Merlin huffed looking away.
