Arthur would probably have forgotten about him, looked away and maybe had one more drink before heading home because he rather desperately wanted to be curled up in bed with his cat, Sasha, watching Lost and drinking hot chocolate (absolutely no one knew of this ritual except, of course, Sasha, who had promised never to tell). But suddenly the guy opened his eyes and looked directly at Arthur, and something in Arthur felt total, final recognition. Whatever was in this skinny, awkward kid's eyes was exactly what was inside Arthur-- a deep-seated, unending loneliness, the knowledge that there could never be anybody who understood or wanted him.

"You've never been on a date before, have you." "No," Arthur admitted. "But I think it involves dinner and a movie and wine and maybe," he added thoughtfully, "I might get to kiss you."

This fic, and then the vid based off it, got that song stuck in my head for a week. Club!AU where Arthur is a bored club entrepreneur until one night the love of his life appears on the dance floor and they have rebound sex in the restroom.

"YOU," Morgana whooped, pointing at Arthur. "You're Merlin's bathroom stall shag at Lyonesse. Oh, god! You are infamous at the lab!"
