Alone for the first time in what seemed like hours and jangling with fear and confusion, Dominic's loafers scuffed the carpet as he paced anxiously in the cheap hotel room. His hands trembled as he unbuttoned his shirt-sleeves and rolled them back to his elbows, nervous energy in need of release. He needed to do something to break the fucking tension, he thought to himself as he closely examined a neat fingernail and set about worrying it with his teeth. Maybe a drink would do it. Opening the minibar fridge, he peered inside and sighed as he contemplated the line of soft drinks and tiny tins of inappropriately refrigerated peanuts before pushing the door shut in disgust.

After taking his mobile phone from his trouser pocket and checking it for the umpteenth time, he put it on the dressing table and reached into his satchel on the chair, rummaging through the work papers until his hand settled on a sample of the one-handed reading material he'd picked up at his stopover at Amsterdam. As he perched on the edge of the bed and began to leaf through the pages, his eyes settled on one of the guys in a feature near the centre of the magazine. Even with his face contorted in pleasure as he buried himself deep inside a pretty boy bent into an improbable angle, he looked for all the world like Dan Foster. Dark, foppish hair mussed up; full lips parted as he seemed to leer at Dominic from the page from beneath half-closed eyelids. Dominic felt himself start to stiffen as he recalled the flirtatious way Dan had looked him up and down when suggesting he retrieve some clothes from his flat, the way he'd licked his lips as he said to trust him, peering coquettishly from beneath his fringe.

Dropping the magazine to the floor, Dominic shuffled back onto the pillows at the head of the bed. The buzz of his zip over his growing erection sent a thrill of pleasure through his abdomen; popping open the button gave him all the access he needed to ease his cock out and into his palm. The thought of Dan's lips focused his attention as he closed his eyes and ran the fingers of his free hand through his hair and rested it behind his head. Those lips had looked so red as he'd licked them nervously, and Dominic imagined Dan doing that as he sank to his knees, looking up at him shyly through thickly fringed eyelashes and parting those lips just enough to take the tip of Dominic's cock into his mouth, teasing with his tongue and making Dominic gasp, griping Dan's hair in his fist with a sneer. Fucking pricktease, he thought as his fingers tightened around his cock. If Dan Foster believed he could just flutter those eyelashes and flatter Dominic's sartorial ego to get whatever it was he wanted, then he could fuck off. The pace of his strokes quickened as he mentally forced himself into Dan's mouth, imagining the keening sound he would make, the wetness slicking around him as he thrust repeatedly between those lips.

A few urgent jerks brought Dominic to the edge, and as he pictured pulling back from Dan's mouth with a wet pop and decorating his feminine features he came with a harsh grunt. The muscles in his neck slackened with relief for a moment before panic set in, fumbling clumsily to straighten his clothes. Scrambling to gather up the magazine from the floor and stuff it back in his bag he caught sight of himself in the dressing table mirror. He looked flushed and guilty.

Oh that's delicious. I'm so glad you wrote som Dominic/Dan, been itching for it lately as I've been rewatching State of Play. thanks for this, it was great!

Pleased to be of service, as ever =D

I don't think that Dominic Foy gets much, if any, attention in the fandom. Which is interesting, given that he's quite a complicated character and one of only two to have actual canon sex during the course of the series.

Whew! Very hot and totally in character for Dominic. Mrrrow.

[filthgoblin.livejournal.com]

Why thank you! I'm glad you thought it was in character, because I find Dominic really interesting :)

I agree with Kgal, you've got dom down so well in this - he so wants to be the cocky dommy bastard, but never quite manages it. Spot on, and hot as all hell to boot. Bravo!! (and this from an established marc warren gives me the heebie jeebies girl :D)

I'm glad you were able to work through the creepiness factor for this :D

NGH! That was gorgeous. Your Dom is perfect, you hit that mix of neediness and self-entitlement perfectly.

Thank you so much! One of the things I'm most attracted to about Dominic as a character is the fact that the thinks he's the big man, but he really really isn't.
