Pairing(s): Merlin/Arthur, (background Gwen/Lance)
Prompt: Vaguely based on prompt No. 39 ”Hogwarts AU: staying at school during the holidays”.
Word Count: 4473
Rating: PG-13
Contains (Highlight to view): *Cheese. Lots of cheese.*
Disclaimer: Merlin characters are the property of Shine and BBC. Harry Potter characters and universe are the property of J. K. Rowling. No profit is being made, and no copyright infringement is intended.
Notes: Thanks so much to Moon for doing an early read and being really encouraging when I panicked about this. Another many thanks go to Katie, my incredibly competent beta, for helping me fine-tune it into something readable. You are both awesome cheerleaders and I wouldn’t have been able to do this without your help! And of course lots of thanks to the mods too for running this lovely fest! Apart from that, I’d like to inform the reader that some of the descriptions were taken from J. K. Rowling’s Goblet of Fire chapter 23 for accuracy’s sake (they were, of course, modified to fit the POV). With that said I hope you’ll enjoy my contribution, happy holidays everyone <3
Summary: It’s time for the Yule Ball, and Arthur has no idea how he’ll muster up the courage to ask out his crush, Merlin, so he suggests they go as just friends instead. Will it go well, or will there be hurt feelings and broken hearts at the end of the evening?
