It’s there in between them, has been there since the beginning, since they met. Put there by others and their ideas of status and a proper place. It’s grown now, widening into an impassable chasm that lies like a open sore between them. He tries to cross, to build a bridge but each time, Arthur tears down the one thing that could help him all to remain alone, to bear the weight by himself and no matter how often Merlin stands at the edge, calling out loud to get Arthur to notice him, his words always echo back at him.
