Merlin felt very content with Draco as his boyfriend again. And he'd become very happy with the way his life was going, even if he was working at a diner to try and support himself. He was working very hard on getting things that he needed and making sure that his bills were paid, even if Lucius was still paying most of them. One day, he'd have to repay the man for everything he'd given him, despite everything else.

But, Merlin had finally saved up the money he'd been trying to save since before he and Draco had broken up to buy him the ring he'd wanted to get for Draco. Even if they couldn't get married right now, he wanted the other boy to have it. He had it hidden in his pocket as he walked into the flat, smiling at Draco. "Did you cook dinner?"

Thor frowned at Lucius. This wasn't a place where it was okay for the other man to interrupt. He shook his head. "I think you've caused enough problems for them, Lucius. Draco and Merlin being able to love each other, even through hard times, is a great showing of their strength as a couple."

Merlin looked at Lucius and frowned for a moment, then held onto Draco's hand. "I love him. I've loved him my entire life and nothing is going to stop me from being with him."

Draco smiled at Merlin. This was sort of why he'd told his father to stick around. He wanted to rub his face in this. He and Merlin were fine. They were good, even. Better than before and stronger. "We know what we're doing now," he agreed. "We love each other and we're going to be together."

Lucius hated how everyone was always against him now. Merlin hadn't been happy. Lucius wasn't a rapist. He sighed and shrugged, moving away from the wall. "I'm leaving," he said. "I know when I'm not welcome."

Merlin smiled and shrugged it off, then kissed Scorpius softly. This was going to happen and everyone who was important was okay with it. His life was finally going the way he wanted it to go.

Merlin was having a pretty good time. His grades weren't slacking because of his job and now he had another, better job. He came into the flat and smiled at Draco, holding up a bottle of whiskey.

"I have great news." Merlin told him. "A man came into the diner today and told me I was attractive. He wants me to work in his shop selling antiques. It's better pay."

Draco looked up from doing homework and frowned at that. "A man came into your shop, told you you were attractive, and offered you a job?" he repeated. Did Merlin not see the problem with that? Putting side the possibility of cheating, there was the possibility of Merlin being sexually harassed or worse.

"Is he old?" he asked, frowning a bit. "Is he at least extremely unattractive? Is that really the way of telling me you got a new job offer that you thought was best?"

Merlin hadn't thought about that. He didn't think that Draco should be jealous. He walked across the room and slid into Draco's lap, kissing him deeply and smiling against his lips.

"Draco. I love you with all my heart and you will never, ever have to worry about me again. We're getting married." He pecked a kiss to his lips again. "His name is Arnie and he's eight-five years young and has a wife named Tullah who is just as old. They just said that they had no children and the store needs a younger, more attractive face to bring in customers."

Draco frowned a bit. He still didn't like the idea of Merlin working for someone who'd called him attractive. "They're old. Shouldn't they think everyone is young and attractive? Why are they hitting on my fiance?"

He pulled Merlin a bit closer. "If it pays better, you should take it. But I want to come and examine the place when you start working there. I don't trust them."

	"Okay. You can examine the place today, because I start working there tomorrow." Merlin told him, grinning. He kissed him softly and then pulled away, getting out of his lap. Merlin held his hand out to him. "Come on. Let's go, then, since you don't trust me." (Reply to this)(Parent)
