Love Game

Summary:

Merlin and Arthur go against Mordred and Daegal in the finals for Tennis Doubles at the Olympics.

Notes:

Can't believe this is the last Olympics drabble! I hope you enjoy that this one got some merthur in it (I couldn't resist lol).

Once again, thank you to the Merlin Summer Olympics mods for hosting this event. I've had so much fun with these.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

Merlin crouched near the net as his partner, Arthur, served the ball near Mordred’s feet.

Mordred just barely hit the ball back, letting Merlin sneak a drop shot past Daegal.

A long rally followed Arthur’s next serve, and the sounds of Arthur’s loud grunts with each hit got Merlin’s motor going, reminding him of their pre-game antics in bed that morning.

Merlin moved slightly back and backhanded the ball down the middle, getting them the point.

Arthur hit an ace on his next serve, winning them the gold!

Merlin grinned, looking forward to celebrating with Arthur in their hotel room.

Notes:

Love game: Shutout game, won without the opponent scoring a single point. 😘
