Colin was right. Soon after they got together, they went back to work. It was hard for the both of them to be so far away but Colin gave Orlando clear instructions on how to behave while they were apart and Orlando spent everyday trying to perfect himself for his lover.
There was still something a miss though.
Orlando was happy with Colin. He was nice and sexy and a good dom but Orlando felt as if they weren’t on the same page. At first Orlando wanted to take things slow and he wanted to be introduced to things a little at a time but it seemed as if Colin was just playing dom not actually being a dom. There were the whippings and the rough sex but in their daily life it just wasn’t enough. Other than the few instructions, not to masturbate or have sex with anyone, there was no spice.
Orlando had hoped that things were become kinkier once they got back together so he was egger to get home. Everyone in the plan knew it. Every time someone came to say hello to him he would say hi and add “I’m going home.” He was excited.
Now he stand at his door step taking steadying breaths in hopes that Colin has some kinky plans for the night. Love making was fine and he fully expected some tenderness but he was ready to move up and these last four months had been a tease. He’s growing frustrated.
He opens the door and smiles. “Colin! I’m home. Are you here?” He better be, Orlando thought. He knew I would be home.
“Yeah babe I’m in the bedroom.” Colin screamed back making Orlando’s eyes widen in anticipation.
Oh he knew it. Colin knew Orlando was ready for the next step and he’s upstairs preparing. He takes the stairs two at a time and bursts through the door only to find Colin in regular clothes sitting on the chair watching some show. “Hey.” Orlando walks further into the room and sits on Colin’s lap. He lays a kiss on his lips. “I missed you.”
Colin smiles. “I miss you too.”
“Well I’m home now and I hope watching TV isn’t the only thing you have on your mind.”
Colin smiled and sighed. “Honey, I’m really jet lagged. As much as I would love to make love to you I’m beat.”
Orlando looked down. So even if he didn’t have jet lag they would just make love? Colin didn’t sense that there was more that was needed? “Oh alright.” Orlando isn’t sure how to ask for what he wants. He isn’t sure he is supposed to tell his dom that he isn’t being very good but as Colin’s lover should he tell Colin that he’s unhappy? All these questions!!! Who has the answers?
Just then the door bell rang. Orlando removes himself from Colin and goes down the stairs. Without even asking who it is, Orlando pulls the door open. “Elijah!!!” It’s been months since Orlando had spoken to anyone from the fellowship and now here was one of the key players standing in front of Orlando with bags sitting around his feet and over his shoulder. “What are you doing here?”
“Hey Orli.” Elijah’s relieved that Orlando hasn’t closed the door on him yet. “I know this is sudden, but I left Viggo and I was hoping I could stay with you.”
Orlando is torn. Elijah was his friend for many years and he look like he’s in need right now but there is still an alarming amount of anger in him that keeps him from letting Elijah in. “Elijah, I don’t know.”
“Please Orlando, I… since you left, we things haven’t been the same. Viggo and I have been arguing and Sean is a mess. Please, I’m sorry I didn’t speak up…”
“Orlando, who’s at the door?” Elijah stays quiet and Colin Farrell walks down the stairs.
“I’m sorry I didn’t know you had company.”
“He isn’t company Lij, he lives here.”
Lij smiles. “Wow. Um…” Elijah is no fool. He knows Sean and Viggo were right about Orlando needing and wanting the domination, but he knows Orlando doesn’t know that, or didn’t know that. “Should I be asking Colin then?”
“Asking me what?”
“I’d like to stay with Orlando for a couple of days. Is that alright?”
Orlando doesn’t even look at Colin, he has no doubt that Colin would tell Orlando to decide. That was the kind of dom he was, if a dom is what you’d call him.
“Well, Orlando, do you want your friend to stay.”
Orlando doesn’t know. He misses his friends and maybe Lij could help him out some. “Alright. I’ll put him up in the guest room.”
Orlando helps Lij with his bags and they head upstairs. “Elijah, how did you know that you’d have to ask Colin?”
Lij puts his stuff down in Orlando’s guest room and plops on the bed. “A sub knows a sub.”
It seems to be a sufficient answer to Elijah though it means nothing to Orlando. He doesn’t consider himself a sub. “What happened between you and Viggo?”
“OH Orls things have been so horrible since you left. I felt bad that I didn’t help you, that I let Viggo do what he wanted knowing he was wrong. But I had orders and I was torn between believing Viggo knew what he was doing and listening to my own conscience. I’m sure you know what that’s like now.”
Orlando sat next to his friend. “No, I don’t. I still make all my decisions.”
Lij frowns, “I thought Colin is your dom.”
“Colin isn’t a dom Lij. He plays at it sometimes but we aren’t like you and Viggo.” HE takes a pause. “So, what was it that pushed you over and made you leave?”
“Well, I told you Sean isn’t doing too well. He doesn’t come to our gatherings any more and he really missed you.”
Orlando looks down. “Okay.”
“Well Sean is starting to see the errors of his ways you know, realizing that he was too stern and put his own needs in front of yours. Viggo however, is still thinking that you are being dramatic and overreacting. He said that you weren’t a worthy enough sub for Sean and I flipped. I told him that if he thought that about subs, then maybe he wasn’t a worthy dom for me. But I mean you’re happy here with Colin right? I mean he’s taking his time and maybe you need a light dom.”
Orlando nods. “That’s what I thought. I liked the slow pace at first. But…”
“You’re ready for more?”
“Yes.”
“Have you spoken to him yet? Does he know?”
“No. Well, I don’t know. I’ve hinted, but I haven’t come right out and said it.”
“How long have you been together?”
“About six months. Long enough for him to know me better.”
Lij licks his lips. “Yeah, but you have to tell him. You have to give him that chance.”
“Yeah. But you know I don’t think he has it in him.”
“He might. Why don’t you tell me some of the things you guys do together. I’ve been subbing for years and I know a lot about doms.”
Orlando smiles. “I’ve missed you Lij.”
Lij smiles back. “Orli, I don’t think I’ve ever properly apologized. I’m sorry for letting you get hurt. I promise to protect you better from now on.” The hug like the long lost friends they are. “Now tell me everything, I want to know what’s going on.”
“Okay, well, we started out I guess playing kink games.”
“Right. That makes sense.”
“Yeah we thought so too. I thought we were supposed to progress into more hardcore stuff but we never did. He said he isn’t an all the time dom that he wants someone with real thoughts and feelings.”
Elijah rolled his eyes.
“What?” Orlando asks at his friend’s facial expression. “What does that look mean?”
“A lot of people say that. But in truth a real dom doesn’t suppress his sub’s personality thoughts or feelings. He helps them develop not hinder it. If this is what Colin thinks then he will never go beyond kinky games Orlando. And if you feel the same way then you shouldn’t go beyond that either.”
Orlando bit his lip. “I want more.”
“Then you have to either convince Colin to give it to you or find someone that will."
