Otalia songfic - Dancin' with the Devil
Title: Dancin’ with the Devil
Fandom/Pairing: Otalia
Rating: PG
Spoilers: Probably only if you don’t know about the latest eps, Frank and the PoD.
Warnings: None that I can think of. This is tame for me.
A/N: This is my first foray into Otalia. I haven’t watched Guiding Light in over 25 years and this was the only thing that could bring me back. Since I read something about Otalia having similarities to Xena and Gabrielle, I have become fascinated with this pairing, and honestly, yes, they do have many, many similarities to X&G. Needless to say, I’m hopelessly in love with them now. *sigh* If I totally screw up any of the GL details, let me know. Having been away for so long, it’s hard to know if my information is accurate.
A/N2: This is also my first EVER songfic. I’m completely stepping out there on this one and I hope I don’t screw it up. I don’t know if either Olivia or Natalia have an inclination to dance or if Olivia has a singing voice. I’m pretending she does and it’s damn sexy. BTW, as far as lyrics go, in my world Olivia would change “boy” in the lyrics purposefully to “baby” when she sings it to Natalia. I’m not even sure if I have all of the lyrics right. I couldn’t find them online.
A/N3: (last one, I promise!) I couldn't get the music file to upload anywhere, but if you want to hear the song (it's the dance club version of Madonna's "Into the Groove"), I'll be glad to email the file to you. Just let me know.
Summary: To celebrate getting Emma back from Phillip, who has no ill intentions in this reality, Olivia and Natalia go out to celebrate. Nature and alcohol then take their course. Never, ever put two budding lesbians near alcohol and dance floor during 80s retro night!!! LOL
*****
Olivia coughed on the thick smoky air. Surely this couldn’t be good for her heart, but she wasn’t passing up the opportunity to go out with Natalia to relax for a little while. After Nat and her figured out that Phillip hadn’t really kidnapped Emma, Olivia sat down and had a long talk with him. She didn’t remember much of the conversation except him saying something about her being a chicken and offering to take Emma for a night so she could have some “alone time” with Natalia.
“Who are you and what did you do with my ex-husband?”
“If you pass this up, Olivia, there’s no hope for you at all.” So, here she was a few hours later sipping on her red wine and listening to bad 80s dance music with a woman she found herself hopelessly in love with.
The last in a three-in-a-row of Madonna songs came on and Olivia laughed out loud, making Natalia look at her like she was insane, or at least a little more insane than usual. The older woman downed the last bit of her wine and stood up. She moved in front of the table and held out her hand in invitation to Natalia, mouthing the lyrics to the younger woman.
And you can dance
For inspiration
Come on…
You know I’m waiting.
When Natalia shakes her head in disbelief, Olivia moves out to the dance floor swaying her hips to the beat before turning back to Natalia and curving a finger urging her onto the floor. Finally, Natalia laughs and gives in.
Come on, come on, come on
Music can be such a revelation
Dancing around you feel the sweet sensation
Olivia leans in putting her arms around Natalia’s waist. Natalia hears Olivia’s deep, rich voice in her ear sending electric shivers down her spine.
We might be lovers if the rhythm’s right
I hope this feeling never ends tonight.
“I didn’t know you could sing.”
“There’s a lot of things about me you don’t know, but I’m trying to tell you something you need to know.”
Only when I’m dancing can I feel this free
At night I lock the doors where no one else can see
I’m tired of dancing her all by myself
Tonight, I want to dance with someone else
Olivia quirks an eyebrow at Natalia and pulls her a little closer. Natalia begins to relax into the beat and the comfort of Olivia’s arms, draping her hands over the other woman’s shoulders. Olivia brings out Natalia’s inner Latina by moving her into a smooth sambaesque motion. When the beat changes, Olivia spins Natalia until she’s standing behind Natalia, singing in her ear, slipping her hands along Natalia’s hips.
Get into the groove
Baby, you’ve got to prove your love to me
Yeah, get up on your feet
Yeah, step to the beat
Baby, what will it mean
Olivia comes back to stand in front of Natalia and rests her forehead on Natalia’s who is fighting the urge to lean up and kiss Olivia. Olivia smirks, letting her voice drop a little over the next few lines. It’s all she can do to resist the pouty lips inches from her own.
Now, I got to know you in a special way
This doesn’t happen to me everyday
Don’t try to hide it, love
There’s no disguise
I see the fire burning in your eyes
The music plays on while the two women dance oblivious to the stares and comments around them. Olivia brushes the back of her fingers along Natalia’s cheek, tucking them underneath the long hair, pulling Natalia slightly closer.
Live our your fantasy her with me
Just let the music set you free
Olivia takes Natalia’s hand still resting on her shoulder and places it around her waist. Natalia can’t resist the need. She shakes but she doesn’t falter as she pulls Olivia close, the distance between them now non-existent.
Touch my body
Move in tight
Olivia grins wickedly at Natalia who is blushing furiously.
Now I know you’re mine
Now I know you’re mine
Now I know you’re mine
Olivia leans in to nearly kiss Natalia, who is eagerly waiting, but instead she takes her hand.
“Wanna get out of here?”
Natalia squeezes her hand in response, “Yeah.”
