Fic: Love in Moderately Distant Places
Pairings/characters: Merlin/Arthur
Rating:NC 17
Word Count: 70,000 more or less.
Warnings: Some violence, hostage situation, blindfolding.
Summary: Written for the following kinkme_merlin prompt: In a way of escaping his life for a moment, twenty-two year old Arthur Pendragon flees to Rome (I could also live with Paris) for a three week vacation. There he meets the lively Merlin, who is as infuriating as he is intoxicating. One week long they have a fiery affair, in which Arthur feels more alive than he has ever been.
And then Merlin has to leave. Because of some idiotic rule Merlin has, he leaves Arthur with no personal contacts and no way of ever getting back in contact with him again. No need to ruin the perfect memories.
But Arthur wouldn't be Arthur if he left it at that, and once he is back home he is determined to find Merlin and keep him in his life.
Notes: Beta-read by the lovely vesperdivum. Thank you so much!
