     emmett had finally decided to take his chance on the beach. He had a notepad and a pen in one hand and a cocktail in the other, even if he was on ‘holiday’ that didn’t mean he wouldn’t have his own fun in writing. the only thing he needed was a spot to sit, there was a spot next a familiar sleeping man. “It’s no problem,” he assured dominic, if he had a free hand he would have waved it. “i just wanted to know if that spot was taken.” 

“I’m afraid I can’t help you there,” Dominic answered with a sleepy smile. He pulled on his glasses and stretched. “I have no idea if anyone was sitting here while I was out,” he explained then folded his arms back behind his head and turned his attention to the ocean. The sun felt warm and he hoped he wasn’t burning. “Do you happen to have any sunscreen with you?” he asked the man next to him.

        isobel had been enjoying the ocean, the water sparkling in the sunshine as she swam. it was beautiful here, and really, she wasn’t sure she’d ever get used to it. eventually she emerged from the water, showing off her little pink bikini to anyone who happened to be watching. isobel did like an audience, after all. she wandered over towards the loungers, planning to take in the sun as she dried off, and noticed another person already there. ‘ gorgeous day, huh? ‘ she said, then frowned when he didn’t immediately answer. hearing him speak, though, it sounded like he might’ve dozed off… ‘ sorry - i was just saying how gorgeous it is here, ‘ she said, smiling as she took a seat on the lounger next to his.

Dominic stretched a little and smiled at the beautiful woman next to him. “I did not realize I had fallen asleep, I’m sorry,” he replied then pulled on his glasses, “it is lovely here yes. How was the water?” He noticed her wet hair and wondered if it would be worth it to go for a swim later.

to dilan, this was heaven. to be surrounded by beautiful weather, beautiful people… now she just needed to be seen. that’s what led her to the middle of the island, in her favourite bikini, hair carefully tossed over her shoulders to make it look like she had put little effort into her appearance. calculating eyes sharp behind darkened sunglasses, she was glancing around as she spoke, before realising the man next to her had fallen asleep. “Oh it was nothing, I was just wondering if it was always going to be like this.”

Dominic wiped the sleep from his eyes and pulled on his glasses. He turned to look at his companion and offered her a sleepy, yet friendly smile. “I would imagine there will always be beautiful people everywhere but I don’t know if it will be as easy as they are making it out to be,” he replied, “I fear there may be more to the pretty package.”

mace sat up, returning dominic’s smile and glancing down at his pants, “nah, i should probably just go and change them.” he said, putting his glass down. “how was your little nap?” he asked, raising an eyebrow.

Dominic’s cheeks reddened and he cleared his throat at Mason’s question. He smiled then licked his lips trying to buy himself a little time. “It was good,” he answered honestly, “I did not realize how much this place had gotten to me until that dream.”

“Anytime. I’d want someone to do it for me.” Cacie smiled slightly and turned towards him as she did. “It’s called Tell Them, I Am. It sounds really stupid whenever I try to explain it, but you should try it if you’re into podcasts.” Her words came quickly, she was excited about being able to talk about it. 

Dominic wished he had his normal phone so he could make a note of it because his memory wasn’t the most reliable but he’d try. He smiled at her. “I will check it out,” he nodded. He sat up a little straighter and set his book down on the ground, content to get lost in the scenery. “I don’t know if we’ve officially met but I’m Dominic,” he greeted, turning back to her, “most call me Dom.”

[lovedominicflores]

Hello all! I am back in business and about to hit some replies on Dominic and Valerie, thanks for your patience :)

Cacie had headphones in and the rest of the world tuned right out when Dominic turned to her, and she jumped a little bit when she realized the sleeping man had, in fact, awoken. “Sorry, I’m listening to a podcast and their guest is really funny. I didn’t mean to wake you up.” Sea blue eyes settled on his face proper and she took her other headphone out apologetically, not sure if he was going to want to talk or not. “Oh, and I put a bookmark in your book for you so you didn’t lose your place,” she said sheepishly. 

Dominic offered an apologetic smile in return. “It’s okay and thank you for marking my place,” he replied holding up his book. He stretched a little before putting his glasses back on. He wondered how long he was out for, he hadn’t meant to fall asleep but this place had a tendency to relax him. “What podcast are you listening to?” he asked curiously. That was the only way he got through the longer days at work and he was always on the hunt for new ones.

mace slumped down and glanced around the lounge room, noticing that dominic had dozed off beside him. he tilted his head to the side and watched him for a moment, distracted enough that he accidentally spilled his drink onto his lap, “oh jesus fucking christ.” he grumbled, swiping at his pants to get the liquid off. when he heard dominic stir beside him he looked over, an apologetic look on his face, “shit sorry, i didn’t mean to wake you.”

Dominic pulled his glasses down from the top of his head. He smiled when he heard Mason’s voice but the smile quickly disappeared as he noticed the man had made a mess. “No... no it’s okay,” he uttered quickly, sitting up more, “do you need a hand with that?” He gestured toward Mason’s lap then looked around for any kind of towel that would help.

[lovedominicflores]

Dominic had been reading on a lounge chair when the combination of the sun and light breeze put him to sleep. He was having a lovely dream where he was surrounded by beautiful people who were slowly taking off their clothes... and he was awake again. He thought he heard someone talking and quickly turned to his left. “I’m sorry did you say something?” he asked, grogginess in his voice. @lirprb

she watched the man canonball into the pool, applauding him once he surfaced. “i don’t think the olympics are ready for you”  she teased. “you know… you’re not the only one who can pull off a sick canonball by the way.’ she said offering him a smile along with a small splash of water as she kicked her feet gently in the pool. the endless stream of cocktails along with excitement from being on the island left amina feeling rather playfull.

Dominic slicked his wet hair back and smiled when she clapped for him. He had made her smile which had accomplished his goal. He gestured to the open water around him. “By all means, teach me how it’s done por favor,” he insisted. The water felt better than he’d expected and he wasn’t sure he could bring himself to leave anytime soon.

amina had spent most of her day familiarizing herself with the island and getting adjusted to the change in scenery. something about the beach that always put amina in a great mood not to mention the abundance of eye candy walking around. amina was seated on the edge of the pool when she noticed the presence of someone else nearby the pool. she sat up running her fingers through her hair, turning towards the stranger with a cheeky grin on her face.”enjoying yourself so far?” she asked coyly.

@lirprb

Dominic had been debating for a few minutes with himself whether he wanted to get into the pool or head to the beach. He knew he needed to cool off, but he couldn’t make up his mind which way. Luckily an attractive woman nearby made his mind up for him. “I am yes,” he answered with a smile. He took off his glasses and set them down gently on his lounge chair before walking to the edge of the pool, far enough away from the woman so he didn’t splash her. “Let me know if I’m ready for the Olympics,” he joked before doing his best cannonball into the pool.

      “I’m blessed to find myself surrounded by beautiful people every day, only now coupled with friendly competition.” They all had a common goal here — the promise of a lump sum to weight the linings of their pockets … and potentially love. While Erik was less convinced by the latter, the chance at the former was a pleasant game. The spell broken for the moment, Erik turned his attention from the ocean.

      “If my stomach growls any longer, it’ll begin eating itself. We should search for food … and somewhere to store our things.”

Dominic kept forgetting about the competition aspect. He wasn’t sure if he liked the idea of finding someone he liked only to find three other people vying for their attention as well. It would be strange to say the least. He turned his attention away from his own worries back to what Erik had said.

He chuckled lightly. “We should drop off our luggage off then find the food,” Dominic suggested, “I don’t want to be carrying it around the rest of the day.”

Indy watched, a little curious as the man that she’d caught the eye of, flushed, cheeks going bright with color. It wasn’t wholly unpleasant sight, really. It … suited him. She smiled, teeth catching at her lip as he moved to her table.

“Oh?” Indy raised her brows, eyes dropping down on her card reading the name. “Too bad. I could say the same for your pair.” The woman commented before her brows furrowed slightly, late to the pick up: “But how do you know it’s not me…” Indy’s lips curved in a slight oh, realization dawning on her quick. “You’ve read my blog?” She guessed, reaching for her wine to take a swing. “Well, now you have the advantage of knowing my name and I don’t know yours. It’s quite unfair, won’t you say?”

Dominic licked his lips and nodded when she realized. He had had his doubts that she was actually real when he read the blog because she was beautiful and shared his same interests regarding sex. A small part of him thought the Indiana was a team of writers instead of a woman, but she was real and she was sitting right next to him. He chuckled softly. “Yes I would agree it’s unfair,” he nodded, “Dominic Flores, but you can call me Dom. I apologize if that came off as creepy, I did not wish to lie to you.” He took a sip from his water and resisted the urge to keep looking at her. “I do enjoy your blog and I have to admit I am a little surprised to find you here, but I guess love and good sex are not one in the same,” he added, quieter this time and risked a glance over at her.

Eris smiled softly as he agreed. “Yes, you can move them,” She said to him. “where are you from,” She asked him. “I’m Eris,” She relaxed as he got her back.

He moved the straps of her top gently before rubbing the lotion over her soft skin slowly. “That’s a pretty name,” he commented, “And I am Dominic or Dom from Los Angeles, originally Mexico City. And yourself?”

“I could kill for a drink, right now.” Indy sighed, brushing a hand through her hair. She caught the gaze of someone looking her way. The librarian waved the little card she’d been given before they arrived - the one that had her cabin number and a name next to it and smiled:

“Can I interest you in sharing a glass of red wine with me while we speculate who the person we are paired with is?”

@lirprb

Dominic was enjoying a plate from the buffet and doing a bit of people watching when someone looked familiar to him. He couldn’t place her face at first. She was gorgeous yes, but he didn’t know why he recognized her. His cheeks flushed when she spoke to him. He offered her a nervous smile and nodded. “Of course, it would be my pleasure,” he got to his feet and changed tables. He took a seat near her and looked at her for a long moment when it hit him. Her blog. She was Indy... and he had followed and read her sexual adventures faithfully. His cheeks turned a deeper shade of red.

“I have to confess I already know we are not paired,” he admitted with a sheepish smile, “but I can guess your match is a lucky person.” He didn’t like being so forward and he didn’t want to cause her discomfort, but he couldn’t lie and pretend he knew nothing about her.

      “I’ve had dreams like this before.” And he had — beautiful sands kissed by crystal clear ocean water, the sun reflecting in diamond perfection. It grew cold in his home land when the seasons changed but Erik didn’t quite mind. This, though … was just a fantasy made real. He wouldn’t be surprised when he jarred awake with a start, heart pounding in his chest. “The jury is out on the reality of it. Though I’ve never been this hungry in a dream.”

      Lazy smirk spread across his lips. He was full of jests, light-hearted commentary made his day-to-day life more bearable ( not that he couldn’t bear it ). “It’s comforting to know I’m not alone in the daze.” He paused, turning to his companion, “Erik — it’s nice to meet you.”

Dominic chuckled and had to agree. He couldn’t remember starving in a dream before. He assumed there was food somewhere and he’d find it eventually but he wanted to take in this view a little more. He assumed his attention would be taken soon enough with whatever this place had in store for them.

“Dominic, but you can call me Dom,” he introduced with a smile and a nod, “I think we might stay in this daze once we meet everyone. I have a feeling...” He paused and adjusted his glasses. “We might be surrounded by beautiful people that will make this seem more unreal.”

“Hey,” Eris said to the person who walked by her as she moved her hair to side. “Do you mind putting some sun screen on my back. I just can’t reach it,” She pouted. @lirprb

Dominic had been heading toward the buffet when the woman stopped him. He turned around and smiled at her. “Of course,” he offered and moved behind her and took the bottle. He squirted some lotion into his hands and paused for a moment having never done this to a stranger before. “Do you mind if I move your...” he paused as he couldn’t think of the right English word, “strings? Straps yes the straps.”
