Date with an Angel
By Summer
Class: Slash
Beta’d by Saura and Slip

Writer’s note: This is based and inspired by the movie, ‘Date with an Angel.’ Also, I am in no way trying to demean any characters portrayed in my story. (Especially Evi). It is just a story folks. Not real, not meant to be taken too seriously. Oh and yes, the word --God, heaven, and Angel is mentioned a lot. IF you are offended by that, then move on.
Pairing: Dom/Elijah, Orli/Viggo
2/5
Rating: NC-17

Disgusting, horrible, terrible, sickening, even more sickening, horrendous! And the hand slapped the last photo onto his desk with a loud bang. Karl was just about finished looking over the proposed fall portfolio, unimpressed by the chosen models: not one fresh face, nor one eye catching lead model in the bunch, when he heard a door open. Which was shortly followed by the same door being slammed shut, which preceded a strangled scream and then there was crying.

Getting to his feet, Karl walked to the door to see his sister racing up the staircase. “Evi?”

She paused on the stairs and looked at her brother. Tears fell down her cheeks and Karl felt the anger begin to boil. Ever since his mother’s death, his entire life (other than work) was dedicated to his sister’s happiness. When she was happy he was happy, but when she was not happy….heaven help the person who made his baby sister unhappy. And he had a suspicion of who was at fault this time.

“What has he done now?”

She swallowed and without answering she ran up the stairs. He went after her.

It didn’t take long for Karl to make some sense of her crying babbling. All he needed to hear were the words affair and another man and he was grabbing his coat and running out the door. He paused long enough to grab one of his handguns hidden in his desk.

***

Dominic handed over the plate of food. He watched as the angel Elijah sniffed at it. Two fried eggs, toast and hot coffee. It was every man’s perfect meal. Elijah only sniffed at the coffee and attentively tried a tentative lick.

Oh! His tongue felt like it was on fire. It burned-- and Elijah dropped the offending black liquid making a loud cry of distress.

“Oh! No! I’m so sorry!” Dom grabbed a napkin and started to clean up the mess. “I should have warned you it was hot.”

Elijah looked at Dom, and despite the pain in his mouth that was quickly fading, he couldn’t help smiling at Dominic. The human was so concerned for the angel’s welfare. Ah well yes, he had been told all about his human assignment. Orli was very thorough.

“Dominic’s father died when he was five. Most of his life was spent taking care of his mother and being the man of the house. He has always been very caring and giving to others, especially to the poor and needy. It seems his very soul has been as a shoulder for many to lay their heads upon. He is kind and loving, however, he has actually been given very little love in return. His mother has often used him to pay her debts and employed emotional blackmail and guilt to prey on his mind to get things for herself. She often uses her husband's death to get her own way in life, even up to sacrificing her son's happiness for her own well being.

People who were supposed to be his friends have abused him, often, stealing from him. Yet, he holds no anger against them. He does have one special friend, Billy Boyd, a very nice young man who is still grieving the loss of his wife. She died a year ago in a terrible car accident. Poor bloke, he blames himself for it all and yet it wasn’t his fault. The other driver was what is commonly called ’stinking drunk’, intoxicated rather, that means he had overindulged in alcoholic beverages, and was speeding, driving too fast in a vehicle. Dominic, this good man has suffered much pain and many hurts. It is time for him to be rewarded. Bring him home with love Elijah.”

Elijah chirped and placed his hands on each side of Dominic’s face. Dom stared back stunned, and then recovering, he picked up a piece of bread and offered it to Elijah. Elijah lowered his hands and taking the offered bread, tried a bite and thoughtfully chewed it for a bit.

“Toast. We call it toast with just a little bit of butter, well actually they call it, ‘you can‘t believe it‘s not butter’. And you can‘t.”

Elijah wolfed the rest of the slice of toast. Now, that was delicious! He liked this ‘manna’ what was called ‘toast’ and this ‘butter which is not butter’. He licked his fingers and then quickly grabbed the plate of toast and dispensed with it at an alarming pace.

Elijah did not try the eggs. They looked….like they were eyeing him back somehow and waited hopefully for Dom to make some more---toast.

***

Dominic flipped through the channels watching Elijah’s reaction to the tv. He paused on several channels. One of them was “Southpark”
.
“Oh my god, they killed Kenny!”
“Those bastards!”

Elijah chirped and his blue eyes widened in horror seemingly appalled at the bloody killing of the cartoon child. Dominic quickly changed the channel to “Sesame Street”. Elijah smiled when he saw Big Bird singing to several little birds in a nest. Dominic changed it to another channel where he saw a big purple Dinosaur, singing.

“I love you, you love me…”

Elijah chirped and purred at the lovely sweet words and Dom flipped the channel again with great haste. Elijah humming and chirping made him uncomfortable in a way he didn’t want to think about too closely.

He finally put it on the news and Elijah sat and watched, listening quietly. Seeing Elijah was distracted, Dom got up and went to get himself a snack.

After looking things over in the fridge, he pulled out a chocolate bar. He was just ripping it open, when Elijah arrived sniffing.

So much for the distraction.

Dom held it out to him. “It is called chocolate.”

Chocolate! Finally! Elijah eagerly snatched the bar from his hand and took a bite.

Liv was right. It tastes just like… heaven!

Dom watched in amusement as the angel called Elijah, literally ate the chocolate bar in three bites and then licked his lips to make sure there was none of the delicious stuff lingering. Then Dom grinned and relaxed as he watched ‘his angel’ lick the last smudges of chocolate from his fingers with much contented and very happy purrs.

***

The water looked so nice, blue and cool. Elijah put his toe in and let out a contented sigh. Removing the thing Dominic called a blanket Elijah entered the shallow end of the water and slowly began to enjoy a nice bath.

***

Dominic watched completely mesmerized again at the sight of a naked angel in his pool. Several times, Elijah would bob up and down and then gracefully splash the water upwards, sending it sparkling down around him like a sprinkler.

His wings were spread out, only one part of the wing bound, and they were waving slightly in the wind. The sunlight beamed down over the figure and seemed to not only absorb the energy and heat, but cause Elijah’s skin to glow. The white of the wings became dazzling, as the blue of the pool and the blue of Elijah’s eyes seemed to blaze, challenging the sky to be brighter. And maybe it was.

It almost hurt Dom’s eyes to look. Elijah was so pure, so heavenly, and so… well… angelic and so impossible.

Sighing, Dom turned away and headed for the phone. He dialed the number and waited.

***

She picked up the phone, her eyes red from crying and her nose dripping with mucous. “Yes, who is it?”

“Baby, it’s me Dom…”

She didn’t let him finish. “YOU BASTARD!” and then she hung up on him.

Dom sighed, again, already feeling a headache coming on and redialed the number. When she answered, all he got was a scream on the other end before she hung up for the second time.

Dom winced and sat down in his chair, and dialed once more.

This time he didn’t get an answer. He called again and again. Still no answer. Picking up the bottle of Excedrin, he went to the kitchen to get a glass of water.

***

He pulled up next to what appeared to be Dom’s car. Or what was left of it. Good girl, thought Karl and getting out of the car, he started for the house. He was going to kill that boy with his bare hands. Not too quickly, of course, it would be slow and with a lot of pain involved. He was just about at the door when the sound of splashing from around back caught his attention.

Son of a bitch! Evi was crying her heart out and he was hanging out in the pool. Taking the gun out of his pocket, Karl made for the back of the house. Oh, is that boy going to pay! And afterwards I will find his lover and show him a thing or two!

When Karl turned the corner, he aimed the gun, fully prepared to fire a warning round and stopped dead in his tracks. What he saw turned his world completely upside down.

Karl lowered the gun and gasped. He then rubbed his eyes with his hands and took a second look. He swallowed and took a step forward.

***

Elijah was having lots of fun with the warm blue water. It smelled a bit funny but it was clean, so he didn’t mind. Though, Elijah was sure he would have more fun if Dom would come and have a bath too. About to turn and see if he could convince the human to join him, he stopped dead when he saw a strange man looking at him.

The angel’s wings folded back and Elijah moved to the end of the pool and looked back at the older male. He was not exactly handsome, though he did have strong masculine features. He even had a rugged look, with a hint of perhaps menace about him. Maybe danger… and perhaps even evil? But right now there was confusion in his aura.

Elijah opened his mouth and made a low chirping sound. To Elijah it was a soft hello to the stranger. Perhaps he is a friend of Dominic’s? Could this be that Billy, Orli mentioned?

***

He was beautiful, as beautiful as any angel painted…no more beautiful than any angel ever depicted in the history of art. And those blue eyes--that face…his skin. This was the most beautiful creature in the world... and ‘the perfect model’. An Angel. A real live Angel. And right here for the taking!

Karl swallowed and shook his head in disbelief. Then it spoke. A soft chirping sound that reminded him of a bird. A pigeon perhaps. He wanted to laugh, and then--Karl knew, without another thought, that he was going to have him. This angel was going to be all his!

So this was the mysterious man, Dominic was having an affair with. Well, finder's keeper, loser's weepers. He removed his jacket and started towards the angelic creature.

***

Too late, Elijah saw a change in the older human. His brow narrowed and became devious. Elijah felt a twinge of panic sweep over him just before the human threw something over his head. It was some sort of heavy cloth and he couldn’t see through it.

He was blinded!

Elijah’s wings spread out as he emitted loud fearful cries. The human did not pause but scooped him out of the water and hurried towards the car with his prize.

***

Dom came out of the bathroom feeling like a new man. A shower and shave can do that. Though his head still bothered him a bit, he was now fully dressed, and decided that he better go check on his little Angel.

His Angel.

The way Elijah looked at him, Dom knew now it was more than just fate. Forget Evi! He and Elijah were meant to be together. He just knew it. Dominic had never felt so in tune with anyone or anything in his life.
His Angel.

Reaching the pool, Dom paled to see that it was empty.

“Elijah! Elijah!” Dom ran to look in the deep end of the pool and then heard a loud bird-like scream coming from the driveway. Dom ran to the front of the house just in time to see a car peeling away with Elijah trapped inside. His face pressed into the glass of the back window and his wings fluttering frantically, Elijah looked completely terrified.

Dominic made out the license plate and knew without a doubt who had taken his angel, his Elijah. KARL URBAN!

Dom grabbed his car keys and hurried to his car. Then stopped dead, when he realized that there was no way he could be able to move it. Not after Evi’s handiwork.

About to curse, Dom saw a yellow taxi cab coming down the street and ran towards it trying to flag it down. The cab stopped at once.

“Help, help!” Getting into the cab, Dom pointed to the fast moving car disappearing down the room. “Follow that car!”

The driver, a beautiful young man with dark curly brown hair and matching eyes, smiled and spoke with a very thick English accent. “Righto! Fasten your seatbelts.” He stepped on the gas pedal and when the taxi shot forward, Dom fell backwards against the seat.

The taxi made after the other car, all the while, Dom stared at the taxi man to see that he was glancing back at Dom with a smile on his face.

“Please…I--I don’t know how to explain but…a man just stole my angel.”

The taxi driver smiled. “Really? I never knew angels could be stolen before. Lucky you found another angel to help you, yeah. By the bye, you can call me Orli and as I said, fasten your seatbelt, please.”

Dom looked on, puzzled, when he saw the brown eyes on the driver suddenly begin to glow. Dom swallowed, grabbed the seatbelt and buckled himself in, then closed his eyes.

Great. Two angels in one day. Was it luck or was he cursed? His headache suddenly increased in volume.

“Hang on, mate we’re in for a bumpy ride.”

Now I didn't expect to see Orlando as a taxi driver! *g*

I like the way you describe the noises and sounds that Elijah makes :)

Love it! Only one thing..(just a pet peeve of mine, please don't take this as personal criticism)....American writers and other non europeans do often lump "the british" together a lot. I don't mind so much that you don't notice the accents (we have thousands!) but Orli is actually English. "British" could apply to Scottish, Welsh or Northern Irish too, and they are different countires with different accents and traditions under the same Crown and Prime Minister. Wales is officially a bilingual country because of the ancient Welsh language. (Any Canadians out there may sympathise if they have been mistaken for an American!)
Sorry to use this as a rant. I really DO love this fic!
