FIC: Love, Patience, Valour and Aster (Merlin/Arthur - 5916 - G)

Title: Love, Patience, Valour and Aster
Author: ???
Pairing(s): Hints of Merlin/Arthur here and there
Prompt: Loosely based (as in no one appears to remember that it's Merlin's birthday. But it's not implied that this is what always happens) on this prompt: Merlin/Arthur - Merlin's birthday is on January 1st and everyone always sort of forgets/doesn't give it much importance in the middle of the New Year celebrations. Everyone but Arthur.
Word Count: 5916
Rating: G
Contains (Highlight to view): *A bit of angsting and lots of fluff.*

I also wanted to note that Asters are also flowers which, amongst other things, are known as a talisman of love and a symbol of patience.
Summary: It’s the night after Camelot’s Yule celebration and no one even acknowledges that it’s the anniversary of Merlin’s birth. Not Gaius, not Arthur nor the knights. Of course, Arthur seems to have decided that it’s best to start the year as he means to go on, by being an enormous prat. But is he really?
