Summary: Originally posted on KMM for the fill "Arthur and Merlin hook up at a party (randomly and secretly), but the next day Arthur claims loudly and to anyone that he was "so wasted" at that party that he doesn't remember much past the beginning of the night. No one finds out about them, and Merlin wonders if he really WAS that drunk. It happens again, though, at another party, and this time Merlin KNOWS Arthur was not drunk, but Arthur claims the same thing. It happens several more times over the course of the year, with Arthur continuing to claim ignorance or outright denying Merlin, and...???"

AN: This was the first fic I wrote in this marvelous fandom. I’d like to think I’ve improved a little since then...but I figured I’d post it for posterity’s sake, if nothing else. :P Many thanks to
