Summary
“Didn’t expect you and me to go quite so badly. I didn’t expect you to be such a twat about breaking up, either.”
Merlin doesn’t know if Arthur winces at that or if his face goes stony and emotionless, because he refuses to look up. It doesn’t even matter; Merlin knows his words sting. He’d said them for that very reason, and yet, he still feels guilty.
“We were together a long time,” Arthur responds after a long, pregnant pause, voice firm and unaffected-- which is what confirms that he is hurt. That was the whole point, but Merlin’s heart aches knowing it’s true anyway. “I just think we should go out with a bang.”
(Or: the one where Merlin and Arthur decide that the best way to tell their friends that they're breaking up is to throw a party.)
