Lord Arthur Pendragon [AU]

Arthur had seen this movie too many times. It was almost embarrassing--no. It was actually embarrassing. But he had been flipping through the channels, and Titanic was on, and he decided to grab a beer and make himself comfortable. Morgana did not need to know that he was watching it again, didn't have to make fun of him for liking a romantic drama, especially one like this. That was one of the perks of living alone, or in his case with a suite mate. He didn't have to worry about his father or sister poking their heads in and meddling in his business.

Speaking of his suite mate.

Arthur glanced over to Merlin's room as Jack and Rose met for the first time. Moving in had been an ordeal, and not his best when it came to meeting new people. It had just surprised him that his suite mate was, well, who he was. He had no problem with scholarship winners. On the contrary, he was always impressed by them, but that didn't mean that he had to live with them. Maybe he was a bit classist, but it was self-preservation in a way.

That, and Merlin was also an arse.

This wasn't right though. They hadn't gotten along for a grand total of three hours. It wasn't right not to try to fix it, since they had to live with each other. With a sigh he changes the channel, flipping until he finds a football game he's already seen before grabbing another beer and knocking on Merlin's door.
