I just found this fic and I'm so glad I did! It was the perfect dose of adorableness. I absolutely love all the little details--the rubber band ball, Merlin opening the door for Arthur and then stalling the car, the guinea pig, the looney toons boxers! Not to mention Morgana secretly loving Danielle Steele, even though she claims she only cares about critiquing romance through modern feminist discourse. Yeah, you totally sold me by the first paragraph. Wow.

Poor Merlin! He was trying to be so smooth... I bet he even hoovered the car seats and everything ;)

Thanks so much for your lovely comment :D I had so much fun with this fic, remembering the Horrors of my weekend shop assistant days and just how much fun a rubber band ball could be (and possibly the joys of watching Danielle Steel adaptations on channel 5 on rainy afternoons), so I'm really happy you enjoyed it so much!

I'm sure Merlin and Arthur will be hopeless and adorable forever more :D

OMG, THIS FIC. IT SLAYS ME WITH ALL ITS ADORABLENESS. ♥_♥

BOOOOOOYYYYSSSSSSS!!!! *draws hearts around them*

I'm probably going to be grinning like an idiot for the rest of the day. And it's all thanks to you. What a lovely fic. Thank you for sharing! <3

:D :D Awww thank you so much! And you're very welcome :) I have just a weakness for clueless Arthur and earnest and adorable Merlin :D :D I like to think this was therapy for all the months I spent behind the till and pricing pants.

Thanks for reading!!

This is wonderful! I've always think of Arthur as a person who sticks by the code and obeys the rules just because he has to... until he finally loses it because of Merlin; which is wonderfully portrayed in this fic! ♥♥♥

:D Apologies for taking so long to reply to your comment! Yes, I think Arthur is a very upright sort of person, and that's why it's so wonderful when Merlin comes along and shakes everything up ;)

Thank you :) He's lucky Merlin is so determined to get his man!!
