Summary: At birth, Arthur was cursed to wear his heart outside his chest — subject to a prophecy that his heart that will split in two if he ever falls in love — and at twenty-four, Arthur remains alive but incredibly lonely. 

But when he collides into Gwen, a mage who wants to be the best designer in all of Albion, and Merlin, the most powerful warlock to ever walk the earth, all three of them become intimately connected in a way that threatens to split Arthur’s heart in half

Belated Mergwenthur Week fic! Will be 3 chapters in total

Summary:

It was something that crept up on him. Arthur had long suspected Merlin’s feelings for him were not entirely platonic. He didn’t think Merlin would ever act on it—let alone that his own feelings might change.

But when Arthur is the one to act, when he kisses Merlin–without thought or plan on either end–it feels as natural and inevitable as when Arthur had first kissed Gwen. It would have been a beautiful moment, if not for the fact that they were both immediately consumed by guilt and horror at the line Arthur has crossed.

It takes Arthur a whole day to work up the courage to tell Gwen, panicked by his attraction to more than just women. He expects her to be upset. To cry. Perhaps to throw things at him. He’d deserve it.

Instead, she just smiles. “Well,” she says. “That was a long time coming, wasn’t it?”

OR

If a Merthur kiss had indeed happened in Season 5. You can’t convince me Gwen didn’t see this coming a mile away, but bi and demi Arthur is having a confusing day. He has mistakes he must now mend, both with Gwen and with Merlin. For Mergwenthur Week “Free Day”
