Pairing/s: Arthur/Original Male Character, Arthur/Merlin
Summary: Merlin acted like he was saying goodbye shortly after Arthur began healing from the bite of the Questing Beast, and then he disappeared for a day. He came back, but Arthur has no idea where he went, or what he did while he was gone. A few months down the road, Merlin is acting strange, and Arthur
feels strange - in that he doesn't really feel at all.

Author's Notes: Hey,
digthewriter! I hope this fic helps make your holiday a little bit brighter. Lots of love and thanks go to my wonderful friend and beta,
jelazakazone. This fic would not be what it is without you. Thanks also to the mods of our community, who were incredibly patient with me and my perpetual lateness, and who made this gift exchange possible. The title for this comes from Vertical Horizon's
Everything You Want. I hope to, when I have the chance, post a companion piece to this fic on Ao3. It will fill in the blanks resulting from the gaps in Arthur's knowledge during this fic, and allow Merlin to have a chance to explain his side of things.
