Tempting

"Come on Bill, get up. You can't stay in bed all day."

Warm blanket. Soft pillows. No filming today.

"I think you'll find I can, Dom."

A dead weight lands on my legs, crushing them into the mattress.

"Ouch!"

"Come on!" Dom sounds almost gleeful at my discomfort. "I wanna go out and play!"

"Fuck off, you Sassenach gobshite."

Silence. Then a soft voice whispers seductively through the sheets by my ear. "Billy?" A pause. "I'll make it worth your while."

Tempting. But, no. I'm not moving.

I listen to the sound of Dom considering his options.

"Shift over then."
