--Water--

 

"C'mon! Just a bit further!" Dom grunted, paddling harder and faster towards the waves, breath leaving his lungs at a rapid rate. The sun shone down upon him, burning his face slowly as a small breeze splashed the water over and over against his body.

 

One.

 

He counted the first number, floating just a bit, waiting, and waiting. Then, a wave rose slowly, but surely from the ocean.

 

Two.

 

He turned his board around, smirking to himself. Far on the beach, he could see a face, smiling back at him. Being his cocky self, against a rush of wind, he started to paddle and paddle, thinking to himself, I'm gonna fucking own this wave...just for you, Bills. Just for you.

 

Three.

 

The wave rushed towards him and he stood on the board, balancing it completely. He grinned for a moment, but it faded as the wave became more powerful, stronger. His serious face took over the sun-burnt skin and he bent his knees, feeling the salty water rush into his wet suit, stinging at a wound from the day before. He focused on the clear blue water as he rushed back and forth, back and forth in a swaying motion, riding the wave to the best of his ability.

 

Four.

 

A rush of water against his face and a wave from Billy made him stumble just a bit, but he quickly regained his balance. He was, after all, Dom Monaghan, and Dom Monaghan did NOT fall because some handsome bloke was jumping up and down, trying to get his attention. Never ever would that happen to Dom Mona---

 

Five.

 

There was a scream and a giant splash. Dom fell into the water, hard, but had managed to take some air in as he did so. His eyes shut and he remained motionless, falling deeper and deeper into the blue abyss, letting the wave pass.

 

Six.

 

He opened his eyes a second later, eyes stinging at salt as it rushed in. He kept them open, watching as a hand reached down for him, glimmering in the water. He felt the hand grab his wetsuit and pull him up.

 

Seven.

 

The water was spat out of his lungs, but only a bit. No air could come in. Dom felt his eyes close and the blackness take over him.

 

Eight.

 

Dom. DOM. The voice got louder and a certain pounding in Dom's ears woke him up, coughing and sputtering. The water spilled from his lungs, warm and no longer the beautiful blue it happened to be in the ocean.

 

Nine.

 

"D-Dommeh? Dommeh, are ya all right?" the voice asked. Dom's eyes opened, sun blinding immediately. He groaned and looked to his left. There was a pair of green eyes, so familiar and so inviting. He smiled.

 

Ten.

 

He sat up and kissed Billy. Billy tasted the salt and felt the wet, pruny hands of his lover gently cupping his face. He felt their bodies press against each other, his clothes becoming soaked from the cold water Dom's wet suit had attained. Life was perfect near the water.
