My God, that's 2 fics in...5 days? Bloody hell, haven't done that in years. Then again, they are drabbles... Even if they do take longer to edit down to 100 words than originally writing them. Slight flaw.
Sooo, happy fic! Considering how the lay-out is almost identical to my last one, I like to think that they balance each other out, or are part of the same set, or something clever like that. Can take it as a sequel if `Never Simple` was too depressing... This is also, er, more involved than I'm used to, so I'm not sure how it is. It's also a little odd due to being written at 3 o'clock in the morning...
Title: Matters of Perspective
Rating: PG-13 for, er, kissing?
Warnings/Spoilers: If you know there are two guys called Merlin and Arthur, not really. Kissing as kinda the only plot.
Genre: Romance/Fluff (unclear on difference)
Pairing: Arthur/Merlin
Summary: Double drabble. The best kisses revolve around perspectives.
Matters of Perspective
Kissing Arthur’s unlike anything Merlin’s ever known.
The exhilarating rush is the same as from the strongest spells he’s cast. As they move even closer together, one hand snaking into Arthur’s hair (he’ll complain about that later), he wants to run and send magic streaking across the skies.
Except that would mean pulling away, which he refuses to do any time soon. The prince kisses like he’d imagined: Intense, forceful, fighting for dominance despite Merlin’s temptation to just give in. Can’t let it be too easy though, because Arthur does love a challenge.
Merlin hopes he’s good enough for him.

Kissing Merlin’s unlike anything Arthur’s ever known.
Naturally it’s not his first time, like any other prince. However, something about kissing this man leaves him breathless every time.
Maybe it’s that smile that’s so undeniably Merlin that Arthur’s drawn in again, or how it becomes one more battle he’s determined to win. Or maybe it’s his magic.
At first the warlock’s surprisingly subdued, until his magic reacts and the world explodes. It’s like lightning surging inside them, sparking at every touch. Each sensation reminds him of the incredible power swimming beneath Merlin’s skin.
Arthur hopes he’s good enough for him.

(Little question: Anybody know the song `Accidentally in Love` by Counting Crows (in Shrek 2)? Is it just me, or is that song incredibly Arthur/Merlin?)
