drabble: waiting for epiphany

waiting for epiphany - billy/dom
this was in my slasha brainstorm bits, but i realized it was a different story. so. here, while i struggle through slasha.


Billy gulps down a glass of eggnog, thick and cloying on his tongue. "You might want to slow down," Elijah appears, slipping under his arm. "There's no alcohol in that." His voice softens. "How you doing, Billy?" Billy shrugs, and Elijah turns him, embraces him so fully that Billy thinks he can lean into him forever, melt into him warm and strong, and he thanks whatever made Elijah able to understand things about people that they do not know themselves.

He pulls away and sees Dom across the room. He imagines a shadow drifting across Dom's face. He looks away.

Aw! Christmas angst! *pretends not to get too excited* eeee, shadows on Dom's face, and embracing Billijah, and for a wee little drabble, it packs a powerful punch. I love it!
