Work Text:
You watch awkwardly as the scene plays out on the huge screen. Sex scenes of yourself always seem uncomfortable to you. You're a fairly new actor and you haven't exactly had many on screen romances yet. So jumping right into a scene like that was jaring. Eventhough your co-star, Colin Firth, made it as comortable and easy as possible, you still felt nervous in those moments. It didn't help that he was attractive and you were a fan of his other works.
"Do you find watching yourself to be uncomfortable?", Colin asks, pulling you from your thoughts.
"Definitely...You?", you ask, leaning over to whisper your reply.
He shrugs, "I don't really look at it as myself as much as a character. I asked because you seem a little uncomfortable."
"It's the first time I've seen myself in this way so it's a little... uh... different."
"I like the music for this. It's perfect. Didn't you pick it?", he asks.
You nod.
He's referring to the song playing as your characters are 'getting it on' as one may put it.
"What' made you choose that song?", he asks.
"Um..."
You think carefully, wondering if you should be bold or say something generic to hide your true inspiration for the song.
You've both had just a little to drink so your bold responce may have something to do with it.
You lean forward, whispering, "My co-star."
You pull away, face red. He looks at you with a smile.
"A smile is good, right?", you wonder to yourself.
"I wish to hear the song in it's entirety.", he whispers right up against your ear.
"I can let you hear it later if you'd like... My hotel room has a great speaker system."
You can't believe the invitation that just came from your mouth.
He reacts by looking in your eyes in a way you've never seen. His eyes seem to darken a little. You can feel your whole body heating up.
"I would gladly wish to hear it from.. your hotel room speakers."
You both spend the rest of the film, barely able to focus on anything other than what may be in store after the premiere.
Some people are throwing after-parties but you know neither of you will go.
As everyone scatters, leaving in their designated transports, Colin slips into the same car as you.
The alcohol is starting to wear off as you tell the driver where to take you both. Your nerves increasing again.
"What if he backs out or isn't feeling it?", you wonder, doubt creeping in and not leaving till you and him have made it to the elevator of the hotel.
Before you could register anything, he has his body pressed against the elevator wall. Your lips moving against each other. All the pent up lust is let out all at once.
They force themselves to pull apart when they hear the familiar elevator ding.
"After you.", he says, running a hand through his hair.
You walk down the hall with him folllowing closely behind you.
He doesn't notice the 'do not disturb' sign you slip onto the door handle as you let him inside.
You turn to him, watching him drape his jacket over a chair.
"Want a drink?", you ask, knowing you need more liquid encouragement.
He nods, walking over the the champagne that's sitting in an ice bucket.
He pours himself a glass after handing you one. You clink your glasses before taking a sip.
"Can I hear the song?", he asks.
You blush, nodding and moving to find your cellphone.
You find it in your clutch purse. You attach it to the speaker system, letting the song fill the room.
He takes your hand, pulling you against him.
"What about your co-star, made you pick such a song.", he whispers in your ear.
You lets your hands run up his arms to rest on his shoulders.
"Ya see, my co-star is known for being quite the gentlemen but I learned something about him that day.", you say, boldness coming back to you.
"What might that be?"
"The way his hands gripped my hips and his breath on my neck... He knows how to take control and be everything but polite."
"We should definitely take off your clothes then if we are to understand the truely embrace the lyrics.", he smirks, kissing at your neck.
You take in a breath you didn't know you were holding. The song soon ends and you don't even care as he takes your hand to find the bedroom.
