Once again, I was very evil with them, esp. with Matt, poor dear!
Too bad you're not in a cartoon...
It's a day at the beginning of August, although the weather doesn't give that impression.
As a matter of fact, Como, more specifically Moltrasio, woke up under pouring, thick and persistent rain.
Even in the early afternoon, the weather conditions don't seem to improve.
Dominic and Matthew had plans for the day, plans that they are forced to delay, but they don't seem to mind at all.
The first guy falls back on the Italian TV, flaked out on the sofa as he flips through the channels, wishing to find a fashion show.
Instead, Matthew does something totally different.
That thunderstorm seems to have awakened Matt's inspiration, so he decides to compose something, but to not isolate himself too much, he moved his piano into the living room.
After all, Dominic can't complain about the fact that he can't hear the television, since he can't understand it anyway. Besides, it's not that his boyfriend is playing loudly, quite the contrary, it's a very soft background.
Too bad that his boyfriend doesn't confine himself to playing only.
"You'll see, Dom, I'm on the right way, I can feel it. This is going to be something quiet, nostalgic and evocative, on the wake of 'Shine Acoustic'. Do you remember it? There was rain in that song, too." Matt comments, as he's busy taking notes on a sheet.
Dominic just nods, as he keeps flipping through the channels.
Matthew goes on playing and then he stops.
"That's it. Now we need to put something big, something colossal, with powered guitars and effects, tons of effects, something like taaa-daaam tatatata-dam-taaa- ta-dam!" the brunet hums in the last part, as he moves his hands frantically, accompanying what he's singing.
"Yes, Matty, this is such a good idea, then we'll let Chris now about it and we'll work on it." Dom goes along with him.
"Great! Besides, with the drums, you should do something very lively, something like this," the singer goes on, as he beats his thighs with his hands, with an engaging rhythm and then he beats two pens on the piano, just as if they were drumsticks.
Dominic passes a hand through his hair, frustrated.
"OK, Bells, maybe I'll think about it and fix something, what do you say?" he suggests, as he silently wonders when and if his boyfriend will ever learn to write a music paper.
"Alright. Now I' m going to work on the final bridge." Matthew announces, but when he turns to his mate, he finds the blond staring at the TV screen, with adoring eyes.
"Hey! What did you see so captivating?" the pianist asks the drummer.
"Oh, Maaaaaaaaaatt! Something amazing!" the blond replies, excited. "Come here, you've got to see it, you can go on with the song later." he invites his mate, patting the empty side of the sofa.
"Huh, Dom, I don't know if it's a good idea, I'd better avoid television, you remember what happened last time, don't you?" the brunet hesitates.
"Don't worry, Matt, there's no commercials, it's only a cartoon. We can't cause any damage with a cartoon, right?" the blonde reassures his boyfriend.
"Does it mean that you are watching a cartoon?" the brunet frowns.
"Yep, because I've just seen the one who already became my favourite superhero!" Dom explains, grinning madly.
"Really? More than Spiderman?"
"Spider who?" Dom chuckles. "Well, jokes apart, I guess that Spiderman can't compare with him, and do you know why? Because this one is utterly pink. Matteh, did you understand? Pink. Hot pink! Come to see him!" the blond insists.
Matthew obliges, so he crouches close to his boyfriend, watching in the TV screen a clumsy, funny, fat character, all hot pink, indeed, which looks like a big bubble gum, with funny white, large pants and a purple cloak.
"Well, Dom, he doesn't strike me as a superhero … that thing is spreading panic all around the town!" the brunet makes his mate notice, a few seconds later.
"Nope, he's just flushing the villains out." the drummer protests.
"But everybody is screaming!" the singer insists.
"Don't mind at them, everyone has been screaming since when I've started watching it. Besides, do you see what colour he is? He just can't be evil. He's pink, he's fattish and easy-going and he's eating candies!" Dominic argues, since the topic seems to be dear to his heart.
"Yeah, too bad that those candies used to be people before!" Matthew points out.
It seems that the topic is dear to his heart as well.
"They must have been very bad people, then." the other replies resolutely.
"I don't think so, there were three kids, a couple of young lovers, an old geezer… uh, wait, you're right, he's really fighting the bad people." Matt realises.
"See? Told you so. The real pain in the ass in this cartoon is that annoying dude who is fluctuating in the air and is staring at the pink dude in a threatening way." the blond explains, pointing at the left corner of the screen, on top.
"Do you mean that extremely blond warrior, all muscular? Well, I don't find him so annoying, quite the contrary, he reminds me of you, a little bit." Matt winks at his partner, pinching his hip affectionately.
"You're wrong, actually he was a brunet before, he wasn't so muscular and his hair is pretty stupid. Wait. He reminds me of you!" Dom makes fun of Matt, mirroring his actions.
The frontman frowns, in confusion.
"What does it mean that he was a brunet before?"
"It means that his hair was brunet three minutes ago, then he started screaming madly, all concentrated and he's changed." Dominic explains, a little bothered, because Matthew is talking way too long and he can't concentrate on the cartoon episode.
The drummer almost regrets calling the singer.
Matt keeps silent for a few minutes, all thoughtful, almost as if he's about to have an epiphany.
"Does it mean that I can turn blond, without dying my hair, if I scream, all concentrated?" the frontman wonders, breaking his silence.
It seems that Dominic is going to seize the opportunity to get Matt out of the way for a while.
"Of course you can, but only if you're really focused. It's a matter of training. Why don't you go out practising? " he suggests the brunet.
"But... it's raining cats and dogs!" the other makes Dom notice, puzzled.
"That's even better, because it fortifies your spirit. It's the perfect condition to reach the top of concentration." the drummer states, with fake wisdom.
Fascinated by that perspective, Matt doesn't waste any time and walks towards the terrace, in the pouring rain, he splays his legs a little bit, shifts his weight ahead, clenches his fists hard and starts to scream at the top of his lungs.
It's been raining for hours, so he can't be the cause of the storm, despite his nasty clamour.
Under cover, in the living room, Dom keeps watching television, peacefully.
The cartoon ends a few minutes after, just like when Matt's screaming end as well.
"Doooooom, it's useless, I can't do that!" he complains from outside.
Rolling his eyes, exasperated, the blond has one main thought.
- Why did I fall in love with such a moron? -
"Hey, Dommeh," the brunet meows, a few seconds after, with a silky voice. "I was thinking… we've never made love in the pouring rain. Here no one can see us, but if someone did, it would be so exciting! Besides, I look damn sexy when I'm drenched to the bone, so I'm sure you will as well." Matt keeps pleading.
- That's why I'm so hopelessly in love with him! - Dom gives himself the answer, smirking, as he reaches his mate, ready to enjoy a very, very, good time with him.
TBC
I know, it's weird, but there are some notes anyway:
- Matt who composes in a rainy day is pure love! And I LOVE 'Shine Acoustinc ' so I just had to mention it sooner or later! -3
- Dominic who watches cartoons is cute love!
Btw, the cartoon in question is Dragon Ball, which here in Italy you can find on schedule 24/7.
I don't know if you know the cartoon. Anyway, the fact that everyone keeps screaming all time long is true, lol!
Anyway, this is 'this' Dom's new favourite Superhero (lol):
