The Waiting Room

The Waiting Room
By umbrarumregni
(Rosenfield/Cooper)
NC-17, m/m
"Rent" and Albert in Leather challenges.

Plot? What plot? Mm, could "Cooper and Rosenfield go at it like rabbits in the Lodge" be described as a plot? Well, this fan fiction is basically a poor excuse for writing about two long-cherished dreams of mine - namely, to see Albert on top of someone and Coop suffering like hell *drools over the keyboard*. I guess this worthless product of a sick mind may also be viewed as some kind of tasteless, bizarre NC-17 version of Polly Hammer's "Healing the Living" (sorry, Polly!). If you haven't read it yet, don't waste your precious time here. Hers is much better. Really. It even has a plot!
Spoilers. Angst and other unhealthy emotions. Uncomfortable sexual positions. Morbid sense of humour.
m/m (obviously). NC-17
Warning: I may be many things, but I'm NOT a native speaker, so be prepared for weird constructions. Revise it and I'll give you my soul.
Criticisms and commentaries are VERY welcome. Just don't depress me too much, OK? I happen to live on the 23rd floor.

---------------

Special Agent Dale Cooper is being squeezed against strangely dense red drapes. He is tightly handcuffed, shivering in complete confusion and childish anticipation while Albert -of all people – is embracing him excitedly, kissing roughly his pulsing neck. The legist's right hand is playing absentmindedly with Dale's tie. It unceremoniously finds its way into his white shirt and rests itself over his pounding heart, as though checking if he is still alive. After a while, Albert's strong lips leave his neck and pauses momentarily on his left ear. Breathing heavily, the legist says backward:

"I didn't recognize you without the handcuffs."

Trying to make some sense of it all, he glances directly into Albert's craving eyes. Right now, Dale is being overwhelmed by a very unusual feeling and wonders if this is what some people call panic. It has to be one of those dreams, he thinks hopefully. After all, everything looks surrealistic enough. Take Albert's weathered black leather jacket for instance. Can't be real. And yet, as it always happens to him in these situations, he is not so sure. In fact, he has this strong intuition he is in serious danger. His heart is pounding faster and faster and every cell of his body warns him there is something terribly wrong with this place. The simple idea that this dimly lit room may actually exist somewhere fills him with dread.

Dale has to concede that Albert's squeezing arms feel realistic enough though, and so does the legist's tongue, now penetrating steadily into his half curious, half astonished mouth. Sure, the other man's body language leaves no room for doubt. And, as a matter of fact, no Tibetan exercise can prevent Dale from feeling this very genuine sensation between his legs, only increased by the tight arms and handcuffs. Involuntarily, he shuts his eyes and - moaning helplessly into Albert's mouth - presses his groin against the other man's tense body. *God* he thinks wearily * What am I going to tell Diane?*

He opens his eyes again, but nothing has changed. Albert's tongue is still searching inside his mouth, pressing, licking, suckling. Now his hands are clamped on Dale's shoulders and start to slide heavily downwards. Dale pushes his sweated black hair against the red velvet drapes and knits his brows. He is almost sure he can hear a very strange music in the air, a creepy cacophonous tune. Feeling Albert's pressure against his body, he closes his dazed eyes and waits.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He loves Dale so much it hurts, and he is really planning to be tender to him...later. Right now, all he wants is to finally show Coop exactly where that "attitude of general unpleasantness" comes from. To be exact, he wants to punish the cruel bastard for keeping him waiting so long for this moment. Nothing can prevent him from making Dale know in his own flesh all the longing he has endured for years. Albert smiles to himself. He intends to have him hard and slowly.

He moves his hand into Dale's trousers and closes it on his cock. Dale's squeezed body tenses instantaneously and he releases quick, anticipating gasps. He is moaning and whimpering simultaneously, but Albert doubts he has realised it yet. No matter how sharp Dale is about other people's feelings, his own emotions are still his major blind spot. And Cooper, the master of self-hypnosis, is bound to ignore every piece of evidence to keep things this way: Earl's psycho look, three bullets and a murdered wood tick, Twin Peaks' undrinkable coffee, Albert's longing eyes on him – everything swept under Dale's conscience carpet so as to protect his harmonic and safe nirvana. He uses to say secrets are dangerous things. Albert wonders how dangerous can be all those secrets kept from oneself.

He starts shivering again, looking up at Albert with those pleading, childish eyes of his. It is really heartbreaking the way he is being torn between fear and desire. But today Albert is going to have no pity on him. He simply can't do that anymore.

He turns Dale around and, pressing his rigid organ against his legs, carries him quietly to one of those black armchairs right in the middle of the red room. Albert is holding his body strongly by the waist, so that he doesn't lose balance and fall on the psychedelic floor. He nestles a not-much-at-ease Cooper on the armchair, kneels before him and allows his beautiful head to rest on the shoulder of his ridiculous weathered black leather jacket. (Either he is dreaming or someone has a really twisted sense of humour.) Moving his hand into Dale's trousers once more, he raises his free hand and strikes that silken black hair of his. So pale, he reminds Albert of his college days, when he was just a cheerful necrophiliac student. Those were the days. Living people are so complicated.

Albert starts to lick Dale's neck again and can swear he tastes coffee in his transpiration, saliva, and tears. He offers no resistance to Albert's probing tongue, but the other man can see his eyes darting wildly around the room. In order to make him pay better attention to what is going on, Albert's fingers increase their pressure on Dale's cock, which causes the other man to bury his flushing face against the legist's jacket. After a while, Albert raises himself up and seats on the edge of the large armchair's side, moves his legs slightly apart and opens his zipper. With deliberate sluggishness, he takes Dale by the back of his neck and coaxes his head downward. Dale is shaken by two small, panicked sobs, but willingly takes Albert's hard cock between his trembling inexperienced lips. After some awkward moments, he starts to suck harder and harder, like the wanting innocent creature he is. He is still crying, though. Constrained by his own moans and small gasps, Albert buries his fingers in the other man's soft black hair and bites through his lips as Dale Cooper gives him the orgasm of his life.

Dizzy by his desire and the floor pattern, Albert kneels in front of him again, impulsively grabs his wet, pale cheeks with both his shacking hands and kisses him roughly, his tongue licking ravenously his own sperm on Dale's luscious trembling lips. Cooper is still shivering; he is shivering so much Albert can swear he has malaria. Suddenly, the legist realises the handcuffs are strangely gone. With puzzled knitting brows, Dale is pushing himself tentatively against his body, clinging to his preposterous leather jacket lapels as if he was afraid of drowning. But drowning in what? Albert is not sure and yet he mechanically blames himself. *Protect me, Albert* Dale's eyes seem to plead. * Protect me from BOB, from Windom Earl, from wood ticks and from dreams like these. Protect me from you. *

Still clinging desperately to his lapels, Dale slides from the armchair, presses himself tightly against Albert's tense body and rubs against his hardening cock. He looks straightly at the other man's eyes, as if expecting Albert to tell him the cure for cancer, the meaning of life or how to – please, please, please - get out of here. There is no message to Cooper, though. Maybe, there will never be a message at all. Frenziedly, he casts his eyes down, opens the other man's shirt with quivering fingers, forces his anxious mouth against Albert's heated skin and starts to draw hard on one of his nipples. Albert has to have him now. Losing the rest of good sense he still has left, the legist lays his best friend's unresisting but shivering body on the psychedelic floor and turns him on his belly. Touching his own organ, he smears the moisture seeping from it all over the tip until it is as wet as possible. He doesn't bother to take Cooper's raincoat off. Damn, he doesn't even bother to take his own horrible leather jacket off. After fumbling with all those different kinds of fabrics, his strong surgical fingers find the smooth white flash he has been looking for. Like a somnambulist, he lays the weight of his body against the other man; who expectantly receives him with his legs slightly moved apart. Despairing minutes elapses before Albert finally manages to enter Dale's terribly tight anus and starts to thrust his body back and forth. First fast, franticly, then intensely and slowly. Dale is not complaining, but Albert is sure he is inflicting excruciating pain on him. He is crying a little more openly now – that ambiguous confused sound which conveys simultaneously relief, fear, sadness and love. He squeezes Albert's right hand as if he could share his pain through touch. And then, without warning, he hesitantly brings that squeezed hand to his own hard cock. A little bit startled, but not enough startled to stop thrusting in Dale's rear, Albert holds him as tight as he can, pushes him up so that he is on his knees barely and starts to work his organ. Dale is moaning steadily now, his mouth tightly closed on the arm of that lousy leather jacket. To Albert, this sound is a sacred mantra and he thinks he wouldn't mind getting as deaf as Gordon now that he has already heard it. He knows that Dale is almost climaxing. His thrusts in Dale's rear grow longer, faster, rougher. When Albert finally hears him cry out, he releases himself into him and feels Dale's hot fluids spilling into his fingers.

For a while, Dale seems to be completely relaxed under Albert's body as it is shaken by some remaining spasms. Nevertheless, it doesn't take long to the shivers and the quiet sobs start all over again, though he seems to be a little bit calmer now.

Albert is also calmer -perhaps too calm to his own taste. Now that his nagging desire has been temporarily quenched, he has to deal with this excruciating tenderness that always overwhelms him whenever he is around Dale, and which seems inseparable from these equally excruciating sensations of pity and guilt. He hates feeling this way. He hates feeling. Unfortunately, unlike Dale, he can hide his emotions from all and sundry, but can't hide them from himself.

Holding him quietly, Albert turns Dale around and looks into those curious, bewildered eyes of his. It is as if Coop once had an essential knowledge on the tip of his tongue, but it has slipped his mind. Albert kisses his trusting lips gently and allows himself a small sigh. * I pretend I'm a terrible person… and I am. *

Dale nestles silently his malaria-feverish head on Albert's arms and closes his eyes. He grabs his jacket lapels again, tightly, as if making sure Albert will not vanish into thin air. The legist caresses him tenderly, trying to send those terrible shivers away. Like Dale, he has no idea if this place is real or just the product of a wet dream. But, for Dale's sake, Albert sincerely hopes it *is* a dream and that it will disappear from his friend's memory as soon as he wakes up in the morning, and sips his damn fine cup of coffee.

The End
