Title: Plague
Author: kiltsandlollies
Pairing: BB/DM
Rating: G
Note: For the [info]lotrips100 method writing challenge. Happened to me one evening and morning several years ago at a Heathrow airport hotel and on a British Airways plane. It was less than amusing at the time.

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

Midnight, and Dominic's making enough noise next door to wake the dead. Billy smacks the wall between them in protest, then comes running to shut off the water flooding Dominic’s bathroom.

Three o'clock, and Dominic's yells this time are wilder. Billy opens his door only to be yanked outside, safe from the fire consuming one third of their hotel.

Nine o'clock, and Dominic's giggling now at the news that their flight has taken off minus its catering trolleys. Twelve hours without food lie ahead, and Billy is aghast.

Flood, fire, famine, Billy thinks, and prays that Dominic's not carrying locusts.
