Draco was kind of disappointed that Merlin's new apartment was ready for him to move in. He liked sharing a room with Merlin. They were going to live together eventually, this was like a dry run. Merlin having his own flat would have been a lot more exciting if Draco's mother hadn't already made it clear that she expected Draco to sleep in his own bed on weeknights once school started. The way she'd said it, Draco didn't doubt she'd actually make a point of checking on him.

"I've never actually seen this flat," he said, as he and Merlin rode the lift up to Merlin's new place. Draco had a box full of clothes and books Christina and Lavinia had brought over in his arms. "Mum says it's nice. It's where Father lived when he first met Evan which I guess is why he never sold it."

	Merlin closed his eyes and ran a hand through his hair again. He felt so frustrated, but he did love Draco. He didn't want him to get angry with him. He turned to face him and let out a sigh. "Alright." He nodded. "But, I kind of just want quiet time. I need to calm down or I'm going to burst at the seams." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	A small, petty part of Draco wanted to point out that he actually hadn't said or done anything wrong, but now didn't seem like a good time to bring that up. He settled for nodding. "I could go out and get us something to eat," he offered, after a moment. "Give you some time alone" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Merlin looked at his boyfriend and sighed. "I'm sorry." He told him. "I know that you're trying to help, but it gets really frustrating for me. You don't understand this at all. You don't understand what I'm going through and you won't."

He shook his head. "I just... I don't want you throwing money at my problems. That's what your family does. If something isn't working, you throw money at it. That's not helping me. That's just paying people off to leave me alone."

"We're not just... paying people to leave you alone, Merlin," Draco said, shaking his head. "My parents are just trying to support you. My father's letting you pay rent, isn't he?"

He ran a hand through his hair. "I'm trying to understand it. I know I can't understand what being kicked out feels like, but I can try and sympathize and be here to support you, right?" Draco sighed. "No one's trying to make you sit around and not do anything for yourself."

	"I'm just going to take my bath." Merlin told him with a soft sigh, walking into the bathroom to run his water. The tub was huge and round and porcelain. It was almost unfair that someone could have a place like this. He sighed. Things would have to get better, right? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Draco was starting to feel like maybe things had been better when things were a secret and Merlin didn't want anyone to know about them. It had sucked, but Merlin hadn't acted like he was annoyed with Draco all the time. What had happened to when they were little and all Merlin wanted to do was figure out a way to cuddle more and exclude everyone else from their lives?

Draco ran his fingers through his hair. "I'm going to get dinner," he called, leaving the bedroom. Merlin was just stressed out now. Things would get better.
