Merlin ignored Arthur's last message and shoved his device in his pocket. He thought of knocking on the door but knew there was no way Arthur would get up to open it if his state was as bad as he claimed. Merlin just stuck his key in the lock and pushed the door open.

"Arthur?" he crossed the room to get a good look at the man on the couch, and immediately found it difficult to devise a proper insult. He really did look terrible; red-eyed and rumpled and pale as a sheet. He let out a short exhale and knelt by the couch. "Alright, more like 35 seconds, then."

	Merlin smiled. "Oh. I thought... I wasn't sure if I was making you too hot or something." He brushed some of Arthur's hair from his dampened forehead and started to settle back down. "I'll stay." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Arthur rubbed his face against the cushion in lieu of using his hand. "Why would I have bothered asking you to stay?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He had a point. "I don't know. Shut up and close your eyes before I put you into magically induced sleep. Trust me, you don't want that. They all last for a hundred years at the very least." He grinned into Arthur's neck. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Arthur always has a point. Even if that point, every so often, make zero sense to any person in the room. "You'd miss me," Arthur slurred. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Merlin laughed softly and leaned over to kiss Arthur's jaw. He didn't really have to answer, but he did anyway. "Yeah. Maybe a little." He settled again, one arm around Arthur's waist and one hand resting against his back. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Arthur didn't bother reopening his eyes while Merlin unwound against him, settling in like he could stay for some time. "You're warm." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It didn't sound like a condemnation, and they'd already established that h e wasn't making Arthur less comfortable, so Merlin just smiled and shut his own eyes, relaxing. "You have a fever. Everything is warm." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Grunting, Arthur tried to shuffle his way under Merlin as far as their bodies would allow, breathing in and out in slow measure until soon enough, he stopped thinking all together and slept. (Reply to this) (Parent)
