Fic: The Ugly Duckling Syndrome (Arthur/Merlin) R -- WIP

This fic is a Work-in-Progress. Short chapters will be posted on A03 every few days until it is complete. Once it’s finished I’ll be posting it to LJ.

Title: The Ugly Duckling Syndrome
Author: [livejournal.com profile] marguerite_26
Rating: R
Pairings: Arthur/Merlin, Merlin/Gwaine
Content Notes/kinks: Age Disparity
Summary: At sixteen, Merlin had been gangly and awkward and nothing but the cook's son to his crush: carefree playboy Gwaine Debois. When he returned to England after a couple of years away, he was delighted and surprised to catch Gwaine's interest. But the course of true love never did run smooth and Arthur, Gwaine's business-focused cousin had an agenda of his own and Merlin was standing in his way.
Author's Notes: Thank you to [livejournal.com profile] faithwood and [livejournal.com profile] chatoyais for beta reading and talking me through this for the last few months and [livejournal.com profile] leashy_bebes for the brit-pick and [livejournal.com profile] claudine for helping me through the tailoring details. This fic was inspired by the movie Sabrina (both the 1954 and 1995 versions).
