Summary
"Having been near you all these years, I am not unaware of the goings on of court, or the way you nobles like to do things.” He gives a half smile at that but doesn’t convince himself of his own humor, “I also know… that when a new king comes to power, he inherits his predecessor’s information network. His spies.”
Arthur leans back, folding his arms and narrowing his eyes, “That’s true, Merlin. I’ve been expecting whomever my father’s last spymaster was to come to me for days now. Do you know who it is?”
Don’t fidget. Don’t shift your weight. Goddess take you, Merlin, stand still. He clears his throat, “It was Gaius for a long time.”
The young king relaxes an imperceptible amount, and nods, “He’d have access to everyone, from villager to noble, and friendly relationships with most. Who is it now?”
Merlin stares at him, then spreads his palms helplessly, “Me.”
Merlin is Camelot’s spymaster and must reveal himself as such to Arthur when he becomes king.

Summary
Arthur was beaming, on the verge of bursting from his excitement as he crashed into his own bed-chamber to find Merlin putting his freshly laundered clothes in the wardrobe. He nearly shouted through his massive grin that Uther had given them permission to marry before he remembered that he was desperately in love with Merlin and Merlin had no idea.
Or, Arthur realizes that he's in love with Merlin and intends to woo and marry him. He just isn't sure how yet, and some advice from his well-meaning friends might do more harm than good.
