♡ The D in DILF stands for 'Delusional'.
♡ At least, in Dominic's case.
♡ When you first told him that you saw him as your "Dad away from home !" he spiralled.
♡ At first, in the immediate fallout of your bombshell statement (one which you gave little thought to, seeing it only as a compliment), Dominic smiled, a dry, thin, almost watery smile, and paid you a compliment back – something suave and reflexive; the technique he'd learnt as a younger man that freed him of consequence on many occasions.
♡ And, like clockwork, you give a laugh and a smile, yet you do not succumb to abashment.
♡ Just another reason why you stand out to Dominic; why he loves you so.
♡ Your comment stays with him long after you've left.
♡ And, initially terrified that this was all you'd ever see him as – just some guy who could be your step-in father when your real one was away – he tried to rationalise it. Nullify it.
♡ For days afterwards, Dominic assesses his behaviour, searches for the instigator of his 'fatherly' aura.
♡ True, he is an actual father to two children, which he can't exactly "correct" (not legally, anyway).
♡ After racking his brain, searching for any way to nullify his fatherly appeal, he has a flash of brilliance.
♡ Instead of neutralising it, he decides to lean into it; to amplify it and add his own charm to such a degree so to make himself more appealing to you in ways a father could not be.
♡ Cue Dominic's Freud era.
♡ Fr though, he's so desperate to turn your appreciation into attraction that he endorses the whole insane theory that a man's offspring will compete for their father's romantic attention with their peers (gross, I know).
♡ He's turning up the DILF factor.
♡ Sleeves half-drawn up to his elbows to show off his forearms (the ones which he's worked tirelessly on at the gym); giving you one of his shirts to wear when he "accidentally" gets yours wet during a summer water fight – things like that.
♡ Things that are a gateway for him to show that he 'cares'.
♡ Really pressing into that 'fatherly' image.
♡ Prepare to be praised 24/7.
♡ Only when his wife isn't in earshot, though.
♡ "Oh, what a wonderful painting ! Such a pretty little picture, Darling..."
♡ He'll lean over you, trapping you between his arms as you sit at the table, bringing himself as close to your body as he can without arousing your suspicion or making you uncomfortable.
♡ Definitely the type to lean against doorframes or walls just so he can cross his arms over his chest and show off his bulging biceps.
♡ He calls you a good girl or good boy whenever you do something that pleases him.
♡ In his own way, he's trying to train you to seek his validation.
♡ Dominic's a master at reading a room, and he uses this power of perception to act when he knows you're at your most accepting. Or your most vulnerable.
♡ Had a bad day at work ? He offers you his open arms, his shirt sprayed with an irresistible collection of colognes to create a distinct scent (one which he's also tried on others with positive effects. Though, as previously discussed, things which sent his prior conquests wild seemingly have little effect on you).
♡ You have something big to celebrate ? He'll take that opportunity – your good mood – to pull you into his arms, lower his lips to your ear and congratulate you: "That's such good news, Sweetie !" he says, laying on the pet names. Then, his volume dips as he pulls you just a little closer, just brushing the area between your legs with his thigh.
♡ "I'll have to take you out somewhere so we can celebrate properly."
♡ As to what this is will be a mystery to you until a box is delivered to your doorstep, a formal outfit inside, coupled with a note with the address of an upscale restaurant, and...
♡ A keycard to a hotel room.
