Episode 311 - Body at Brighton Rock (2019)
On the one hand we have JR missing the twist of 2019’s ‘Body at Brighton Rock’ so hard that it would be like not realizing Bruce Willis was dead after watching The 6th Sense, and on the other we have Derek confusing the production story of Predator (the script for which was originally titled ‘Hunter’) with the 2003 film ‘The Hunted’. We both lose. Not to be outdone, you also lose. We don’t even warn you about the Natural Park Zone of Death, major failure.

Movie Night
Courtney Nevin x Reader
Summary: You see your girlfriend
Tumblr media
It's not often that you made the drive.
It was nearly three hours from Brighton to Leicester on a good day, nearly four on a bad one so it wasn't something you got into the habit of doing.
A route from hell divided you and your girlfriend. You weren't in one of those relationships that could meet somewhere in the middle. It was all or nothing.
When your contracts ended you had both already decided that you would need to go to the same club. The distance was stressful to both you and Courtney which was probably why you were making the trip.
You had training tomorrow but you had already dropped hints to Vicky that you were feeling sick so calling in would be easy tomorrow. You knew that Courtney had done the same with Aileen.
It wasn't the most responsible or professional thing to do but you couldn't care less when you ran from your car straight into your girlfriend's arms.
You take in a deep breath and relaxed into her familiar warmth and security.
"I missed you," Courtney said softly," So much."
"Missed you too," You said. Your words were muffled and you refused to remove yourself from her safe embrace.
You don't really know how long you spent on her doorstep, in the cold England night, just rocking back and forth, soaking each other in.
"I've got the movies queued up," Courtney whispered in your ear," And snacks. Do you want to head in?"
"You're perfect," You said as she lead you into the house.
Your girlfriend pushed you onto the sofa and bundled up the blankets. She milled around you for a moment before sitting down and pulling your legs into her lap.
They were a little numb from driving nearly three hours without any breaks and you actually moaned when Courtney began to massage you. She knew just where to put the right amounts of pressure and where to let up until you were completely boneless next to her, unable to really do anything but shovel more food into your mouth and stare at the screen in front of you.
You don't know how many movies you watched, you just knew that it was five in the afternoon when you left your house and now it was coming up to three in the morning.
You didn't want to move though, content in your little cocoon of blankets with Courtney's warm body next to you.
You yawned.
"Do you want to head up to bed?" Courtney asked as she readied the next movie (the shared Netflix account was a god send when deciding which movies seemed interesting enough to watch).
"Don't want to move," You grunted before completely contradicting yourself by readjusting your position so your head was in her lap.
Blindly, you reached for Courtney's hand and pulled it onto your head.
She was quick on the uptake and gently scratched at your scalp. The pressure was just right, exactly like the kind of perfect pressure she used on your legs.
"I think we're sleeping down here, huh?" She laughed softly.
"You can keep watching your movies," You said, eyes dropping closed and words slurring with sleep," I'm...I'm just going to take a little nap."
She chuckled and it rocked your body a little. It was a good rocking though and just pushed you deeper into your exhausted haze.
"You can sleep as long as you'd like," Courtney said fondly as her expert fingers continued to massage your head," It's not like we're going to training tomorrow."

Brighton Rock | Happy Little Day
Howdy folks finally posting this shit. This is a small lil series which I hope you like. Apparently I only write about fucking on vacations, but sue me.
Word Count: 5.9k
Warnings: Clubs. Drinking. Swearing probably. Lusting. Then sin, lots and lots of filthy shit, 18+ or else.
Tumblr media
“Y/N, stop laying around!” You opened your eyes and looked up to your teenaged cousin, Julie, who was looking at you with contempt. Your eyes adjusted to the bright sun. You were peacefully enjoying said sun on the beach in your new bikini when you were so rudely interrupted.
“I thought you wanted to go in the water?” you replied.
“It’s boring all alone and mum and dad won’t come in with me. And I don’t want to go in with Daniel either because then I’d just have to look after him the whole time. I wanna go in deep,” complained Julie, referencing her baby brother, your youngest cousin. You had kind of been forced to go on this trip. Your aunt and uncle had extra room in the accommodation and travel for their beach holiday to Brighton by accident, and them and the rest of your family didn’t really give you a choice as to whether you wanted to go or not. You didn’t mind too much. A beach vacation wasn’t the worst thing in the world, and you didn’t really mind this side of your family (except for moments like these). It was more the fact that no one gave you a choice in the matter which annoyed you. But here you were anyways, enjoying the sun and beach well enough. You sighed and stood up, dusting your legs off. 
“Fine. But only for a little bit and I don’t wanna go in too deep and you better not drown,” you said, walking off with Julie, who rolled her eyes. The two of you went in the water, shrieking at the cold at first and then giggling a little when the waves would bounce you up. Julie eventually went a little farther and you went a little closer to the shore. Your top half dried as you kicked some rocks around, feeling your feet sink in little by little with each wave. After a few minutes, Julie came back to join you. You kicked around a little more before Julie looked to the shore and then smiled deviously back at you. 
“What?” you asked. She crossed her arms.
“That guy’s staring at you,” she whispered with a nudge of her head. You looked to see who she was talking about, and lo and behold, a man did seem to be staring at you, luckily not too much at your body but still held an intense gaze. He was handsome you supposed at first glance, older, but before you made any other judgements you turned back to Julie.
“No he’s not. He’s wearing sunglasses too. You can’t tell if he’s staring.”
“Yes he is,” she giggled. “Oh well. Not my beach romance to throw away I suppose,” she said, heading back to sit by her parents. You rolled your eyes this time and looked at the man looking once more. He noticed you and gave you a smile, and you just crossed your arms over your chest a bit subconsciously before heading back for a moment to grab Daniel and put your sunglasses on yourself. You returned to the water, bending over to hold his arms up so he wouldn’t lose balance in the waves and so you could lift him up. Daniel was laughing and the man was still staring. You realized as you continued to lift Daniel up that by bending over to help him, you were giving this man a full on view of your ass from the back and tits from the front. You blushed a bit at this realization and picked up Daniel, standing fully up and went back to the towels laid out to dry off. You sat him down and laid out again next to Julie. 
“How’s your boyfriend?” She teased in a low voice so her parents couldn’t hear. 
“Julie, I’m not interested in some pervy guy who sits on the beach alone to look at girls’ bodies.”
“Even if he’s cute?”
“Yes, even if he’s cute. Now drop it,” you said, laying down completely.
***
After leaving the beach, taking turns cleaning up, and putting on a sundress for dinner. Before you all left, as the street lamps were beginning to turn on, you enjoyed the bugs chirping and the warm evening air. Your aunt and uncle had asked you to run to the store quickly to buy some food for Daniel, as he was an extremely picky eater at the moment and it would be closed by the time dinner was over. You had showered and gotten ready first too, so it made sense for you to go. Stopping in the M&S simply food down the road, you looked around the aisles to pick out some snacks for the baby. When looking to make sure you were getting the right type of cereal, you were just about to turn around and go to the check out when you nearly bumped into someone, muttering a “sorry” before looking to see who it was. You actually bumped into their chest first, looking up to see the man who had been staring at you by the beach, who looked considerably taller standing up. He smiled when he realized he was you. You hated admitting Julie was right, but he was lean, sharp, tan, and handsome, and his eyes were gorgeous. But that still didn’t make you any less creeped out by him since the encounter from earlier.
“Sorry, I should’ve been more careful,” he said, with what you hated to admit was a lovely voice as well.
“It’s no problem,” you said, wanting to end this conversation and get away from this guy. You started walking away when he kept talking. 
“I think I saw you at the beach earlier today,” he said. You stopped, turning half around. 
“Mm-hmm.” You weren’t gonna make this easy for him. The man seemed a little distraught at your closed off nature but kept trying. 
“I-I just wanted to say I’m sorry about that. I didn’t mean to stare so much and make you uncomfortable.” He said, taking a timid step closer. You didn’t move luckily and turned more towards him. You actually appreciated a bit him realizing what he had done and apologizing. You lowered your arms and met his eyes. 
“It’s— it’s ok.” You gave a small smile. Neither of you moved, and he took that as a sign to continue talking. 
“I promise I don’t make it so much of a habit,” he chuckled. He turned to the cereal to pick out the same box as you did. “Here for the nightly… cereal and applesauce?” He said. You chuckled a bit. 
“It’s for my baby cousin. And like you can talk,” you said, pointing out the fact he selected a box too. He chuckled.
“Touché. It’s for the morning. I’m Brian, by the way,” he smiled, and damn, you wish his smile wasn’t so lovely. 
“Y/N,” you replied. Silence fell between you two for a moment, and before you could even reconsider you asked, “why were you staring?” Even though you knew the answer. Brian chuckled again. 
“Because sometimes I can’t resist looking at a beautiful girl,” he smiled. The comment made you blush more than you would’ve liked. “See you around, Y/N,” he said, looking you up and down once more before heading to the till, leaving you flustered in the aisle.
***
“What took you so long? Rendezvous with your boyfriend?” Teased Julie before you headed out to dinner. 
“No. Shut up.” You said and she chuckled. By the end of the meal, you’d managed to forget about him, but when you closed your eyes for the night you couldn’t help but replay his hungry gaze up and down your body. 
In the morning, you’d mostly shaken the experience again. You and your family had a lovely time walking leisurely through the Victoria Gardens and appreciating the pavilion. You only minorly distracted yourself. You thought you’d seen him, a glimpse of his hair when walking past the street, but it had to have been your imagination. You scolded yourself in a way. Brian was on your mind more than you wished. And you still found him staring at you creepy but he didn’t seem too bad in the shop. The truth was, it had been a while since you’d been flattered so explicitly by someone so attractive, so you couldn’t help but appreciate the attention. You continued the day shopping and eating with your aunt and uncle, and headed back to the inn you were all staying at to clean up for dinner again. And by this point you’d pretty much forgotten about Brian again. Until you walked into the inn’s foyer, and there he was. You froze for a moment, your eyes widening and his as well, clearly an unexpected interaction. You prayed Julie wouldn’t notice him and tease you further for your obvious reaction and infatuation for the man when you affirmed you were the opposite the day before. But she didn’t seem to notice, and your aunt and uncle were none the wiser. You nearly paused as his gaze quickly switched from surprise to something else, something darker and hungrier. It made your stomach do a quick flip before you quickly composed yourself and caught up with your family. You quickly made your way to your room and locked yourself in the bathroom, taking a deep breath to calm yourself down from the situation. The two of you were at the same accommodation, making you bound to see each other. You weren’t sure if this terrified you or excited you. It was a mixture of both, and which one you wanted to admit least you were unsure. That night again, he pervaded your dreams and thoughts.
***
Your family’s activity for the next day was to spend the day at the pier playing all the arcade games and going on rides. You accompanied them of course. You spent the day racking up plenty of tickets which you redeemed for prizes worth less than a quarter of what you spent to get the tickets, much to Julie’s objection. She was upset you were more tactical at some of the games than her, but then you made it up to her by accompanying her on all of the amusement rides she wanted to go on, since your aunt and uncle had to watch the baby most of the time, but they took the odd turn themselves. Then, deciding she wanted a second go at beating you, you and Julie returned to the arcade, deciding to set a 30 minute timer to see who could win the most tickets in that time. You were fine with letting her have this one, so you only occasionally played the odd game while she went off in a frenzy on her own. As you were leaning over a pinball game, which didn’t even give out tickets, you felt a hand on your shoulder and turned around to see Brian. You stepped back in shock, instead falling a bit into the corner of the machine and beginning to trip. Brian luckily noticed and caught you by grabbing your waist. As he righted you, he kept his hands lingering for a moment.
“Careful,” he smiled, his face closer than it had even been. You looked into his eyes and got lost for a moment, enjoying his grip on you and his gaze. You shook your head and stood up as his hands fell.
“I’m beginning to think you’re stalking me,” you said, brushing yourself off a bit, “but thank you.” 
“Pleasure. And I’m not stalking you. Every time’s been a coincidence,” said Brian cheekily. 
“How can I believe you? I barely know you,” you said truthfully, but in a tone that suggested a bit of a challenge, like you wanted to know him more. Brian was magnetizing, and you felt to be a complete victim of his charm. Brian smirked in response and got a bit closer. You could breath him in a bit at this point, and it was addicting, however, he wasn’t close enough necessarily where it would be inappropriate for a stranger to be so close.
“You can get to know me more, if you like,” he said. You looked worryingly around for Julie. You knew that the timer the two of you had set up would be almost out by now. “Problem?” asked Brian, genuinely a bit concerned he’d made you uncomfortable.
“My cousin’s here. She can’t see you. I— I’d never hear the end of it,” you said with a bit of a chuckle, and a gaze that just about conveyed you were sorry you’d have to go. Brian nodded in understanding and smiled a bit once more.
“I understand,” he started. You were just about to move away when he grabbed your forearm lightly, and you whipped your head around to face him again, your hair flipping with the action and him catching its scent. It sent him slightly mad, but he composed himself. “But if you can manage a moment away, I’ll be at the 10 Below bar later tonight.” You stared at him. “In case you wanted to get to know me more,” he finished, letting your arm go and then walking away. You rubbed your arm at the spot where he held, not in pain, but to try to imprint the feeling in a way. You didn’t know what to make of his offer. He was extremely handsome, and seemed to have you under some sort of spell. But it seemed too convenient, and you couldn’t have your family know, because then they’d tell your parents and even though you were an adult all hell would break loose. You swallowed and composed yourself and found Julie, who boasted about her winning against you. You congratulated her, found your aunt and uncle, and returned to clean up again. However, this time, you didn’t go to dinner, which they had earlier than usual.
“Ready to go?” asked your Aunt Susan as she knocked on the door, your uncle and Daniel in tow. She, your uncle, and Daniel were sharing a room and you and Julie were sharing one with two beds next door. Julie went past you to the hallway to join them, and you were nearly about to as well, before you made a split second decision.
“Actually, I think I’m going to stay back,” you said. 
“Everything all right?” Aunt Susan asked, concerned. Julie looked at you strange. “Yeah. It’s just… it’s that time of the month and it’s just started,” you whispered, placing your hand over your lower stomach. “I’m fine. Just a bit uncomfortable and I think I should rest for tomorrow,” you said. Julie believed you, as you had been quiet since coming back. She chalked it up to the pain now but it was really because you were silently freaking out about Brian asking you out. 
“Aw, love, you go and rest. We’ll bring you back a sandwich and some chips?” said Aunt Susan. 
“If it’s no trouble,” you said. They nodded and headed on their way. You closed the door and sighed to yourself. Were you really going to do this? You found your answer as you rushed to the closet to ransack your suitcase for anything you could wear to a bar, something dashing. You hadn’t really packed anything because you’d assumed you wouldn’t be going out much on your family vacation with a teenage cousin, a baby, and your middle aged aunt and uncle. You really had nothing. “Shit,” you whispered to yourself. You quickly made your way out of the inn down the road, praying for any shops to be open still. Your family had gone to dinner earlier luckily, but it was still somewhat late for shops. After nearly jogging down the road, the only contender was a TK Maxx. It’d have to do. You threw something together, returned to the inn quickly to darken your makeup, and got all ready. You had to leave before everyone got back. You were about to run out of the door when you realized you’d need an excuse to be gone. You grabbed the inn’s notepad and pen and quickly scribbled down, took a walk to see if it would help and might stop by the shop. Y/N. You hoped that’d be good enough. You were in the clear and hadn’t realized you’d nearly been running to the bar you’d been walking so fast. You slowed down as you arrived and entered.
With a quick scan of the room, you didn’t see Brian. Taking a moment, you found the bathroom. You made sure you still looked alright, and took a deep breath to calm yourself down and panicked a bit. You and Brian never agreed on a time. But he had to show up at some point? Worst comes to worst, you figured, you could get some guy to buy you a drink if Brian never showed up. But you decided not to worry about that at the moment and went back out to the counter. The place was nice enough, it was nearly half-bar-half-club, but not so loud or dark. The lights were dimmed and there was ample seating, not all too busy this early yet. There was a stage where some musicians were chatting and tuning their instruments. You sat down at the bar and placed your order. You got something to sip on, maybe calm your nerves a bit but not make you unaware of anything. You sat sipping and people watching for a bit, and someone tried to approach you as you sat alone but you turned them down. The bar got busier and busier by the minute, but never too packed. Eventually, you felt a hand at the small of your back, and turned around to see Brian.
“You came,” you said, looking him up and down but not gracing him with a smile. You were still unsure of him. He was damn attractive in these lights, and it was a bit frustrating. 
“You came,” he reiterated. “I wasn’t sure if you would.” “Why? Think I was afraid?”
“A bit maybe. You looked a little spooked earlier,” Brian chuckled.
“That’s because you were stalking me.”
“Well that’s why we’re here, aren’t we? To prove I’m not some stranger who was stalking you?” You rolled your eyes a bit but smiled. Brian ordered a drink and topped yours up. 
“Thanks,” you said. Brian sat down and scooted his stool closer to you. 
“Besides, how do I know you weren’t stalking me?” Brian smirked. You smiled.
“I guess you’ll just have to believe me. I wasn’t.”
“Ditto,” he said, taking a sip. You admitted to yourself, you liked him. It was going well so far. Nothing seemed forced or awkward, it seemed like the innuendos and the flirting came naturally around each other.
“I can’t stay long,” you said. “Supposedly I’m sick,” you explained. 
“Ah,” he replied. “What’s your affliction?” 
“Women’s troubles,” you smiled, testing him a bit. Some of the more ignorant men in the world got grossed out at the mere mention of things like women’s anatomy, and you wanted to filter those out fast. Luckily, Brian chuckled again.
“That’s a mean one,” he said. “So you’re not from Brighton, then? Just here on holiday?” he asked. You nodded. “Me too. I’m in some part of Greater London at all times,” he chuckled.
“What keeps you there?” you asked.
“Work, mostly.”
“You’re one of those workaholics, then?”
“Ha, I try not to be, but sometimes the job demands it,” he said, staying ambiguous, not wanting his career to detract from the conversation like it had in other interactions he’d had. “And what about you, like the beach?” he asked.
“Fine enough,” you said. “I know you do, though,” you teased.
“I do? And how could you possibly know that?”
“Because you liked staring at my tits pretty well the other day,” you said teasingly, mixing your drink with your straw.
“Can you blame me?” he chuckled. You blushed and looked over to the side.
“So what, come to Brighton alone often?” you asked.
“No, not often. I haven’t been to Brighton in a while. But tell me more,”
“About what?”
“Yourself,” he said. You noticed the quick subject change, but brushed it off.
“Like, what’s my favorite color?” 
“Sure,”
“I thought we were here so I could get to know you,” you said.
“Alright then. It’s black.”
“Black’s not a color.”
“Sure it is.”
“No, black is a lack of color,” you teased. He smiled at you and furrowed his brow bit.
“Well then what’s yours?” he asked.
“I don’t have one,” you said, drinking more.
“You’ve got to be kidding,”
“Why would I kid about that?”
“No, I believe you, I just can’t believe you’d tell me black’s not a color and then go on to say you don’t even have a favorite color yourself,” he laughed. “It’s the audacity.” You opened your mouth in feigned offense.
“Know what I think is audacious, Brian?” you said, leaning in close. Brian leaned in close himself. Your scent enraptured him in the most glorious way, and your wit was killer and everything about you made him desire you greatly. 
“What?” he said, his face close to yours. You looked at his lips momentarily, then back to his eyes.
“Inviting me to a bar without setting a time and assuming I’d show up,” you said, leaning away and finishing your drink. It was helping you feel lighter on top of everything. Brian tried to snap himself out of it. 
“Well I managed to luck out then, didn’t I?” he said.
“Most certainly,” you conceded. The jazz band had finished setting up and began to play with a quick announcement. You and Brian enjoyed the song, where halfway through he moved closer and slipped his hand around your waist, tentatively and then more firmly when you didn’t move away. You moved into him a bit more. As the next song started, Brian stood up and took your hand. 
“Care to dance?” he said. You nodded and grabbed his hand. The song wasn’t too lively or slow. He grabbed your waist again and you secured your arms around his neck (which was a bit of a reach) and swayed together, his hands slowly slipping lower and your hips slowly touching more and more. You could hardly handle it, Brian staring straight into your eyes so intensely. He was a charming, clever guy, and incredibly handsome, and you couldn’t help but feel attracted to him in a very literal and physical way. Brian was no better off. You were driving him crazy with your eyes back, your lips and the feel of you, your hair, everything. He gave in soon and put a hand on your jaw, and you gave him a smile and a look that said, I dare you, and that’s all he could handle before he brought his lips to yours. The kiss was intense, a bit messy and lustful but very deep. He pulled away soon after as the song finished again. You looked at him sorrowfully as you figured you should go, though you wanted to do nothing more than dance the night away. You didn’t, you couldn’t get attached to some guy you met on holiday. You’d have to leave soon and didn’t want to get hurt. So you leaned to his ear.
“I should go,” you said, trying to convey you were sorry for it. Brian looked upset too a bit, and nodded. Before you could break away again, he pulled you close suddenly and whispered into your ear, sending shivers through you as his breath hit your neck.
“158,” he said. You looked at him, confused. “I’m in room 158. Tomorrow after dark,” Brian finished. Your stomach swooped as you realized what he meant, and nodded, before parting away. You wrapped your arms around yourself to protect from the slight chill of the night as you quickly walked back to the inn. You opened the door to find Julie sitting in bed and reading. She looked up at you.
“Took you long enough,” she said, her brow furrowing when she noticed your appearance. “Where’d you get that from?” she said, referencing your clothes. You froze and panicked as you realized you’d forgotten to account for your going out clothes when coming back.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about. I packed this with me and changed to go on the walk,” you said, folding your arms again and quickly rushing to the bathroom again to undo your appearance. When you came out of the bathroom, she was back to her book. You sat down in your own bed. “You got my note then?” 
“Yeah,” she said mindlessly. “When’d you leave? It’s a bit late now.”
“When’d you all come back from dinner?” You asked, avoiding the question. 
“Just after 8. And you didn’t answer me,” Julie said. 
“I left just before 8. And then I walked down to the shop but it was closed and then took a long walk,” you said, hoping that’d be a good enough alibi. Julie just shrugged. To put the nail in the coffin, you suggested, “wanna watch some TV quick before bed?” Julie nodded and closed her book, and you flipped on some channels. The distraction seemingly worked.
As the two of you watched, you hardly paid attention, your stomach swooping and mind swirling at what happened just before with Brian. And on his preposition. Were you really going to sleep with some man you just met on holiday? A man who was older than you, who you barely knew? Were you going to sneak out during your family vacation just for sex? Would it be dangerous, a bad idea for your safety, or emotions? You’d always gotten attached quite easily. But then again, maybe mindless sex would be the best way to ensure you got the most out of this, that it could be a naughty secret fling and just that. Because at the end of the day, you weren’t going to ever see each other again once you leave your vacation. But all the other reasons too. You weren’t close to an answer either way, simply nervously mulling over everything. 
You fell asleep, and your family spent the next day relaxing on the beach once more, but you were anything but relaxed, a constant stream of worry of the right thing and desire and curiosity keeping you on edge. Dinner happened, and though the summer sun set late it did turn dark eventually. You laid in bed until Julie fell asleep, and breathed in. You shouldn’t go. But then you found yourself quietly closing the door and walking down the hall to room 158. The urge was too strong, and Brian was too addicting. You knocked on the door just past 11 softly, and the door opened to Brian who looked at you hungrily, towering over you. He didn’t say a word, didn’t have to as he immediately took your waist and pulled you inside, closing the door. The room was dim, and his grip tightened on you as he immediately captured his lips with yours. You devoured each other, his tongue slipping inside your mouth alongside yours. 
The kiss was intense, sustaining, and drove each of you crazy. He broke away after you both lost your breath, and you couldn’t even draw another one in before his lips fell to your neck, making you gasp. He nipped and sucked on the soft skin of your neck, moving around and to either side until he found the spot which made you arch into his body, his response being one hand falling to your ass to push you into him. Everything, his scent, his touch, made you melt into him and you could help but moan a bit. Brian growled at your noises and turned you around, kissing you hard again as he back you to the bed and lowered you down to the edge before forcing your legs apart with his torso, fitting himself against you. You were on your back and he was still standing, leaning over as he finished the kiss before pulling away. He gazed at you, a dark glare full of complete desire and satisfaction that he knew would be fulfilled. You couldn’t help but look at him the same. 
You climbed into place against the pillows before Brian knelt on the bed in front of you and started to unbutton his shirt, staring at you unfalteringly. He finished and discarded it to the floor, before grabbing your top and getting rid of it too. Brian gasped at your breasts before running his hands over them and putting his mouth back to your neck. He fondled you as you started to pant, his lips trailing down as they fell over your nipples and he lavished his mouth upon each. You whined at his effects, and he didn’t stay long before his lips continued down to your stomach before he lightly kissed the junction between your hip and your stomach, making you moan. He pulled your pants down quickly and did the same to his own, and you eyed his tented boxers. Before you could appreciate him more, he began to  kiss the insides of your upper thighs until you were writhing towards him. Brian smirked at the effect he was having on you, and sat up as he palmed himself for a moment and rubbed at you through your underwear with his thumb. Your hips pushed into him, begging him to give into what you desired, to make you feel good, though you knew he would. 
Brian ran his hands up your sides once more before leaning down and kissing you, before removing your panties, kissing each of your thighs once, and then dipping into your core. You cried out softly as he licked and sucked at you before dipping down and slipping his tongue inside, his nose rubbing against you. Your whines started out as constant whispers but grew more and more audible, though never too loud, never to reveal your hidden tryst. As he lifted his head once more, he made direct eye contact again, you meeting him, making everything more intense. His gaze was hungry and real, making you realize that it was him exactly who was in your most private places. You sighed and sobbed a bit as you got close, before Brian slipped two fingers inside of you, curling them up, your hips lifting with his fingers, and his mouth and other arm pinning you down, forcing you to endure him, his eyes never leaving yours until you couldn’t keep your eyes open. What your sight couldn’t supplement for you anymore, Brian filled in for your ears, lifting his mouth for a moment, saying, “Let go. Now.” commanding you, before lowering back down, and you gave in, your mouth locked into a silent scream as you felt the highest you’d been, like you were breaking apart out of pure pleasure. After thrashing around until your hips moved the opposite direction, attempting to leave the stimulation, Brian lifted off and out of you, rubbing your thighs until you opened your eyes again. Once you did, Brian just smirked at you and removed his pants, your eyes widening at his size. Before you had a chance to appreciate it enough again, Brian leaned over to kiss you, more softly this time again, and you reached a hand down to him, stroking him and rubbing him harder and harder, Brian making the most gorgeous low moan into your mouth. 
It wasn’t long before he couldn’t take it anymore, and guided himself into you. You gasped as he slid in all the way, stretching around him pleasurably and he started to move. He was deep and hard and both of you whined into each other’s mouths, too preoccupied to continue kissing as you felt each other inside out. There was something so naughty, lustful, and exiting about the experience, but also somehow deep and gentle just as much, even though Brian was plowing into you with the subtly of a semi truck. He sped up and you grabbed his back and tugged on his hair hard, trying to contain your noises as he buried his face in your neck. 
“Fuck, fuck, I’m close already,” he said, moving a hand down to rub at you. You were close too, your body unable to remain composed with how Brian was taking you. You moaned louder at first before quieting down out of necessity, Brian’s chin and nose tucking further into your neck with the pressure, his breath making you shiver. The muscles in his arms flexed near the side of your head as he barely held himself up on his elbows, but used them to thrust into you even harder. You sobbed out as he hit a deeper spot, finishing all over him. Brian was unable to take you contracting hard around him, moaning brokenly before pulling out of you and finishing over your stomach before collapsing on top of you. Both of you hyperventilated for a moment as you came down before Brian’s nose nudged yours, the two of you lazily kissing before your breathing settled. You moved away slightly, brows knitted together.
“The mess—“ you started.
“It’s alright. I can clean it up,” Brian said softly as he kissed you a bit more. Brian hopped up on shaky legs to do such and returned, cleaning the both of you off. He threw the hotel towel to the floor and laid down next to you, grabbing you close and kissing you again before intertwining your legs and rubbing his nose softly against yours. You grabbed his hand and met his eyes, and he gave you a soft smile back.
“You’re gorgeous, Y/N. And absolutely incredible,” he whispered. 
“You’re just saying that because I just slept with you,” you whispered back with a grin. Brian exhaled with a soft chuckle before pulling you closer, both of your eyes falling closed with exhaustion. You wanted nothing more than to just stay like this all night, or maybe forever, just be with him, because it felt amazing whenever you were around him. You couldn’t even stand to feel afraid of such a feeling as he held you close. You opened your eyes to see his still closed and untangled your hand, running it up his arm to stroke his face. He opened his eyes to see you looking upset back at him.
“You have to go, don’t you,” Brian whispered, his face giving away no emotion but his smile falling. 
“Yeah,” you breathed back. Brian sat up, bringing you up with him, pulling you onto his lap to give you one last deep kiss before pulling back, it saying everything the two of you felt, that you wished you could stay, through your expressions. But alas, you pulled away and put your clothes back on, smoothing down your hair quickly before opening the door, looking back at him once more. He smiled and looked at you reassuringly back, and you smiled as you closed the door softly. You quickly ran back to your room, opening the door as quietly as possible. The room was still dark, and Julie was still fast asleep. You sighed in relief as you climbed into bed yourself, passing out blissfully and a bit sore from your little rendezvous. Maybe this holiday was a good idea after all.

A/N: Hellooo! I hope it's how you imagined it and that you like it! Thanks for your request!💛
______________________________
The television is playing in the background. You don't really pay attention to it as nothing is interesting to watch. This evening must be the most boring ever. Your boyfriend, Brad, has been gone all day now. He had to attend this event in Brighton this weekend but decided to take you with him so you guys could visit Brighton together in the next few days. The only problem is that you weren't allowed to accompany Brad to the event. It was a private event for a television program that should be on TV at the beginning of next year. You didn't want to spend the whole day in a hotel room so you decided to visit Brighton on your own and look for things you can do with Brad the following days.
It's already eleven pm when you look at the clock on the wall. You throw yourself on the bed with a big sigh. You wish he had already returned but that's not the case. You pick up your phone and unlock it. You open Brad's contact to send him a message.
-Baby, when are you finally coming home?-
It doesn't take long for him to reply.
-I know it's getting late, normally I shouldn't take long anymore. Go to sleep love if you're tired❤-
-I'm not sleepy, I'm bored-
-It's getting bored too here tbh-
-Then come back to the hotel-
-You know I can't just leave-
You sigh and lay your phone to the side. You know well enough Brad can't just leave the event. You can't go to sleep as you're wide awake. You feel that your body is eager, eager to be touched. You feel the tension rushing through your body. It can't find peace and it almost makes you go out of your mind.
Your hand is laying on your belly while you try to do some breathing exercises. Maybe that will cool you down. But it doesn't help, your body is touch starved. You feel your heartbeat raising. All you can think of is Brad touching you all over your body. You close your eyes and try to imagine it. Maybe you weren't just bored but horny as hell.
Images of Brad touching you, caressing your skin are flashing before your eyes. You can't help it but suddenly you're so desperate for him. It makes you wish even more that he was here already.
Your hand goes over your still-clothed belly, slowly going over the fabric. You slightly pull your t-shirt higher until it's over your bra. Your index finger draws lines over your belly, giving you chills. You cup your breasts with your hands, massaging them through your bra. You can only think about how Brad would rip your bra off you and start massaging your boobs. He would suck on your nipples until they are rock hard.
One of your hands slides down over your belly. It slips underneath your pants until it's rubbing your pussy over your panties. You can already feel a wet spot on your panties. You can't hold back a laugh when you feel it. Slowly you start drawing circles over your clothed clit. It feels good but not so good as when Brad's tongue is on top of it. All you want right now is Brad's head between your legs, eating you out.
You start to moan a little bit as the pleasure is kicking in. Your hand slips into your panties and you start to rub your pussy. You can feel yourself spreading the wetness all over it. You're completely lost in your thoughts. You don't even hear Brad opening the door and coming in. He closes the door again and makes his way to where you are.
When Brad sees you laying there on the bed with your t-shirt up and your hand in your pants he doesn't know what he sees. He looks at your face that's full of pleasure. Soft moans are escaping your mouth.
"Well well is this how 'bored' you were", Brad says with a smirk on his face.
You stop immediately with what you're doing. Your cheeks turn red from embarrassment. Brad has seen a lot of you but he never has seen you touching yourself. When he is around you never masturbate but when he is gone you do it quite often.
"Is this what you do when I'm gone? Is this how you pleasure yourself?", Brad asks you.
All you can do is nod. Brad stands closer to you, laying his hands on your legs which are laying on the end of the bed. His eyes turn darker. He stares at you.
"Does my princess want some pleasure?", Brad asks while tightening his grip on your legs.
"Please baby", you say desperate.
Brad pulls you closer to him so your legs are hanging over the end of the bed. He hovers over you kissing your lips softly. With his tongue, he makes a trail downwards over your belly. His hands move up to your waist. He unbuttons your jeans and then pulls the zip down. He hooks his hands around the waistband of your jeans and pulls them down. He does the same with your panties.
"Open your legs wider for me baby so I can see your beautiful pussy", Brad demands you.
You open your legs wider and you feel the air hitting you down there. Brad's hand rubs softly over your pussy with his hands. Your wetness is already all over his hands.
"So wet for me already"
Brad puts his hand on your thighs and dips his head between your legs. He kisses your clit softly. He leaves a trail of kisses all over your pussy. Then he licks all up your pussy. His tongue is sliding over your pussy, spreading your juices even more. He enters you with his tongue going slightly in and out. You grab the sheets tighter out of pleasure.
"You taste amazing sweetheart", Brad says.
This time his mouth finds your clit again. He starts sucking on it slightly. His hands are moving up from your legs to your waist. They are moving from your waist to your belly to your waist again. Feeling his hands caressing your skin makes your pleasure more intense.
Brad is sucking hard on your clitoris, giving you goosebumps all over your body. Sometimes he lets his tongue lick over your clit intensifying the pleasure. You sit up a bit so you can see what he is doing. So you can see his head between your legs. Brad looks up to you while his mouth stays around your clit. When he sees how desperate you look he starts moaning too while he sucks your pussy. His moans are sending vibrations over your pussy which gives you even more pleasure. You close your eyes and lay down again.
"Fuck Brad, I can't", you moan out.
Brad's mouth moves down again. His tongue enters you again, eating you out, he draws circles with his tongue. Your hand finds his head and you slightly pull on his hair.
"Oof yeah right there baby", you can barely speak.
One of Brad's hands moves down to your leg again. It rests there for a while before his thumb finds your clit. While he is slightly going in and out of you with his tongue and sucking you, his thumb rubs your clit. The combination of the two makes you feel a kind of bliss. You start to moan harder and you feel your climax building up.
"Be quiet baby, we're in a hotel", Brad says to make you quieter.
You cover your mouth with your hand to silence your moans a little bit.
Brad continues eating you out. He makes you feel closer to your orgasm every second. Tension is building up in your belly.
"Fuck Brad hmm baby", you moan out as you reach your orgasm.
Your legs are trembling and your eyes are rolled back from the pleasure that's waving over you. Brad's mouth stays on your pussy, sucking it even harder. He moves to your clit again and sucks on it. You know well enough what he is doing, he is overstimulating you, bringing you to a second orgasm.
This time it feels different. It's a combination of a slight pain mixed with pleasure. It's because you've already come once. You can't hold your legs still this time but Brad holds them still by putting pressure on them with his hands.
"Keep your legs open babygirl", he says to you.
You try as hard as you can to keep your legs open while Brad sucks on your clit. You feel your second orgasm coming closer. You lay your hands on Brad's head and slightly push him down between your legs.
"Baby, I'm so close", you moan out.
Brad keeps going while a second wave of pleasure washes over you. Your hands grab the sheets again and you pull hard on them. This time your back arches from all the pleasure Brad is giving you.
When you feel the pleasure leaving your body you can relax again. Panting and with your eyes closed, you lay on the bed. Brad licks your pussy clean and stands up again.
"That's my good girl", he says and hovers over you to kiss you.
"I'm tired", is all you can say.
"I can understand that", Brad says with a small laugh.
"Sometimes I think you like torture", you say.
"But did you have pleasure?"
"Yeah I did, a lot", you smile.
"Well then I think the torture wasn't so bad"
Brad lays down next to you.
"Want to cuddle?", he asks you, and you nod.
Brad lays closer to you and both of you lay on your side. Your back is against Brad's chest. Brad lays an arm around you and pulls you closer to him. His head is resting in the crook of your neck.
"Also you have no idea how sexy you were looking while you were playing with yourself", Brad suddenly says.
"It was embarrassing", you say.
"It wasn't, you can do it more for me", he smiles.
"Don't think so".
"We'll see"
You close your eyes and you feel Brad kissing your neck slightly.
"I'm sorry I left you alone all day", he says.
"I think you just made up for that".

Gallery update 1 September 1984, Queen performed their second evening @ The Birmingham National Arena, Birmingham, UK  “The Works” TourFreddie's vocal introduction to ‘Somebody To Love’ is very beautifully drawn out. He then says, "f***ing let's do it", and jumps into the infamous piano theme of the song. During the improv section of ‘Keep Yourself Alive’ after the first chorus, Brian plays part of the solo from ‘Dead On Time’ off the Jazz album. On many nights of this tour, Freddie mentions the rumours of Queen splitting up which have come to light because it's a known fact by now that he has been working on a solo album. Tonight after ‘It's A Hard Life,’ he says the journalists can f**k off, and adds, "as long as you want us to be on this stage, we'll come back." It is no coincidence that he makes this speech before introducing the next song, ‘Staying Power.’ Originally a song about relationships, Staying Power is given a somewhat new meaning on this tour amidst all the band breakup rumours. Before ‘Is This The World We Created,’ Brian tells everyone that they're much better than last night's audience (they really are an enthusiastic bunch, as is clearly heard on the recording).
 He then tells a little story about his new guitar, the solid-body Gibson Chet Atkins classical electric: "Roger is a collector of guitars, and in his travels around the world he found this little job, which is very strange as it hasn't got strings [nylon, as opposed to steel]. So it sounds like a spanish guitar, and we use it for this particular song. So if you listen to this, you'll get a chance to sing after this, alright?" After the masses sing ‘Love Of My Life,’ Freddie tells them, "What a superb bunch you are." Brian's solo is significantly shorter tonight, perhaps due to a review stating how last night's only low point was how the guitar workout was a bit long. The end section of ‘Brighton Rock’ follows, and then Freddie introduces the next song. "Ok, we're gonna do something that Brian's written. This is gonna be our new.. our next single release. Thank you for buying all the other ones, by the way. If you buggers don't buy 'em, we won't be here! Enough of this crap. This is called ‘Hammer To Fall!”As soon as the audience sees Freddie with his Telecaster on they begin to sing the chorus of ‘Crazy Little Thing Called Love.’ He urges them to "get it a bit faster" and then he begins the song. Although 1984 presented the more ambitious choice of songs, Queen took much less time settling comfortably into a setlist than they had done on their previous world tour. There would only be a couple more minor changes throughout the month. QueenLive

I felt there is very relevant information here about how the focus on transition can keep people from focusing on traumas that caused them to dissociate from their bodies in the first place and worsen the dissociation.

Notes on Film Noir
Tumblr media
It’s interesting to me that ‘Film Noir’ is a term that came from outside Hollywood and America (France, obviously) for films that were originally only made in America, but whose style, themes and philosophy hadn’t been recognized as anything particularly special or unusual at home.  I suppose it’s a little like how it took the “British Invasion” of the 1960s to make America realize how culturally and artistically important their own homegrown Rock & Roll actually was.
It’s difficult to definitively state what is and isn’t film noir: the look of it in its original form is generally dark and shadowy (hence the name), and apparently this was largely a response to the low budgets the filmmakers had to work with: a police station set could just be two plywood walls, a table lamp and some venetian blinds, and still look great if everything else was all clad in darkness and shot in black and white.
But it fit with the mood and content of the stories too: In the ideal Noir the story is set in an overcrowded city and told in flashback, which reflects Noir’s inherent philosophy on life: the events have already happened, and so everyone we look at is helplessly trapped in their predestined fate: there is no escape. The lead characters are overtly motivated by sex, and romance usually leads to murder, one way or another. Most prominent characters are downbeat, corrupt, and desperate. Everyone is deeply cynical.
I’m not sure if the films originated in the books or the books began mimicking the films, but Raymond Chandler seems to me the perfect voice for that genre, even more obviously so than the earlier Dashiell Hammett. Mickey Spillane and then, much later, James Ellroy took up the mantle and made it considerably harder and nastier, but they lost an awful lot of the charm in the process.
Off the top of my head I would say the best Noir films would probably be The Maltese Falcon, The Big Sleep, Double Indemnity, Out Of The Past, Laura, The Third Man, Gilda, On Dangerous Ground and The Postman Always Rings Twice (although I’m not actually that big a fan of either version, and The Blue Dahlia is also a classic but a bit of a mess). You could also throw in Brighton Rock, I Wake Up Screaming (AKA Hot Spot), The Big Steal, Night And The City and In A Lonely Place. Then, later on of course, Chinatown (1974), Angel Heart (1987) and L.A. Confidential (1997).
Even though a true film noir should really be set either just before or after the second world war, there are all sorts of interesting modernized takes on the form that came later, like Get Carter (1971), Blood Simple (1984), Body Heat (1981) and The Long Good Friday (1980).  Blade Runner (1982) probably began the sci-fi branch of Noir, and Brick (2005) is a great modern film set in an American high school that otherwise plays it by the book. All recommended.
