A/N:This is NOT a death!fic. Nobody dies!
Originally written for Merlin Holidays 2012. Unfortunately, posting this three days after the series finale might have caused that people didn't want to read it. Or maybe it was because of my summary which pretty much sucks.
The title is from “Madness” by Muse.

Title: Won't Leave You Falling
Author: elirwen
Pairing: Arthur/Merlin
Rating: PG
Genre: mpreg, hurt/comfort, canon!era
Word Count: ~1900
Beta: none
Warnings: mpreg, mentions of violence (not graphic)
Summary: Arthur rode as quickly as he dared with Merlin seated in front of him. His hand often strayed to Merlin’s belly where only few weeks ago a new life had been blooming. A small part of him still hoped that he wasn’t too late to save both Merlin and their child, even when the rest of him was already mourning the loss.
A/N: I borrowed the title from the lyrics of the song "Endlessly" by Muse.

Title: The Return of a Song
Author: elirwen
Pairing: Arthur/Merlin
Rating: PG
Genre: modern AU, reincarnation fic
Beta: none
Warnings: none
Summary: It has been twenty years since Arthur's return and Merlin still hadn't found the courage to search for him. But nothing can stop destiny.

Author's Notes: It all started with my laptop breaking down after I'd finished my merlin games entry. And of course I hadn't made any backup. So, I wrote the fic again from memory.
This week, I finally bought myself a box for my hard disc, and now I decided to post both versions.
Out of sheer curiosity, I'd love to know which version did you like more, so I created a little poll which you'll find on the end of this entry. :)
