Summary
Arthur had not been raised to be comfortable with showing affection. Or just showing how he felt, full stop. Emotions were, for the most part, something of a mystical entity; something he dealt with internally but never shared.
Until he met Merlin.
In which Arthur overcomes his fear of expressing emotion, and explores his relationship with Merlin through the love language of physical touch.
