Buffy Summers was a three-time Grammy winning singing superstar, still when she walked into the studio she couldn't help but feel a sense of apprehension. She was here to do a layout for Rolling Stone magazine and it would be the first shoot she was doing after her VERY public break up. Her ex boyfriend Riley Finn was a super popular popstar. His all American good looks matched hers and the two had made the perfect couple all cuddles and cuteness. Both Riley and she had kept the reasons of the break up quiet and she was glad. Infact their lawyers had made them sign confidentiality agreements because both sides knew any hint of impropriety from either of them would send their wholesome images down the drain.
'And here I am doing that for myself' Buffy thought wryly.
"Ms. Summers. You're here. I'm Lorne Greene. Please make yourself comfortable. You're make up lady is here already and so is your assistant and they are waiting for you"
Buffy smiled at the man. "Thank You Lorne. Is everyone else here?" Buffy asked.
"If you mean Blood Lust then yes they are here already" Lorne said.
"I guess I better hurry then" Buffy smiled and walked towards the door that had Summers on it.
While her make up was being put on Buffy thought about the events that had led to this shoot. Her manager Rupert Giles was furious that she had agreed to do it. Not because it would affect her career but because he was her step-father and extremely protective of her. After Buffy's break up with Riley she had hidden from the media for a while just licking her wounds. But after three months of seclusion, Buffy was ready to re-conquer the world. Those months had not been wasted, she had used the time to pour her heart into her music. She had matured and she wanted the world to know it. But at the same time she didn't want to pull a Britney Spears. Going from a teen idol to a mature artist was a tough transition and Buffy was determined to do it without being branded a skank or tart or slut. Personally she loved Britney and felt the media were cutting her a raw deal but Buffy was not about to make the same mistakes. After a lot of thought she had decided to do a shoot for Rolling Stone to promote her new image. With her new single coming out the week after the issue would hit stands Buffy and her team had decided it would be perfect timing. And then Willow Rosenberg, who was Buffy's best friend and reluctant socialite, had a brainwave. Willow was currently dating Oz, the drummer of the rock group Blood Lust. Willow had suggested that Buffy combine her shoot with the group. That would definitely be a departure from her image and would also create a media buzz, Buffy had agreed straight away. She liked Oz and even though she had never met the other members of the group she had seen their pictures on TV and in a few magazines and Buffy knew they were HOT. The lead singer Angelus and the bass player Spike were brothers but from the pictures she'd seen, Buffy knew they didn't look anything alike.
'I wonder what their real names are' Buffy thought idly.
At that moment Willow and Anya, Buffy's assistant walked into Buffy's room and took one look at Buffy before smiling a HUGE smile.
"Wow Buffy! You look so… wow!" Willow said.
"I'm guessing you like" Buffy said grinning at her best friend before taking another look at her reflection.
Her make up was a little darker than usual but not too dark. The hairdresser had out in blonde extensions so her hair was longer and very blonde. Buffy knew she looked good.
"Course she does. You look great but you're also running late. Lorne wants you in wardrobe now. The guys are already there and they want to co-ordinate all of your outfits" Anya said.
Buff nodded and followed Anya out with Willow trailing behind her. All she had on at the moment was a short silk robe but there wasn't anything else she could have worn and then taken off without risking her hair.
When she got to the room marked wardrobe Buffy was actually surprised to see how large the room was. There in one corner was a bunch of clothes that seemed to be for her and so Buffy started to walk over.
"Wait a minute Buffy, I want you to meet everyone" Willow called out.
Buffy turned around with a friendly smile on her face and then her jaw almost dropped. Standing in front of her was the most gorgeous guy she had seen in a while. He had on a pair of tight leather pants and a spiked leather collar and nothing else.
"Buffy this is-" Willow started to say when Anya interrupted,
"They are all in the papers every other day, I'm sure they know each other's names"
Willow smiled sheepishly at that and just waved her hands at everyone.
"Hello luv"
"Hey Spike" Buffy said while she watched him look her over once before looking back into her eyes and smiling.
Buffy turned to the guy standing behind Spike and she almost needed to sit down.
'And I thought Spike was hot'
"Buffy"
"Angelus" Buffy replied smiling at the sexy singer. It wasn't like she had never seen good looking men before but these brothers were something else. Angelus was also wearing leather pants that fit him very snugly. He had a blood red shirt on that was unbuttoned. His hair was done up in spikes very similar to Spike's hair and from what she could see of Oz, like his too.
"Oh hey Oz" Buffy said.
"Hey Buffy" Oz said quietly.
Seeing that all the members of Blood Lust were ready Buffy hurried to Lilah, the woman in charge of wardrobe while the guys were led out to do some shots of just the band.
"Hey Lilah, what am I wearing today?" Buffy asked while looking through some of the clothes.
"That's what I wanted to talk to you about" Lilah said. "I was talking to Willow earlier" Lilah nodded to the redhead before continuing, "And she was telling me that the purpose of this shoot is to change your image and I was thinking, maybe we could push that a little further"
"How much further?" Buffy asked warily.
"You'll see" Lilah smiled.
Ten minutes later Buffy walked out of the room still wearing her robe and went to where the Blood Lust guys were posing.
Buffy sat down in the chair with her name on it and watched the men work the camera. All three were definitely yummy and watching them was a treat. Angelus and Spike had taken their shirts off too and the threesome of sexy male bodies wearing nothing but leather pants was sure to make a lot of people male and female drool.
When Lorne spotted Buffy he signaled to the photographer who stopped shooting.
"Buffy, I'm sure you know Charles Gunn" Lorne said gesturing to the photographer.
"Sure do. Hey Gunn, How are ya?" Buffy asked.
"Doin' good. I'd give you a hug but I don't wanna mess with the hair" Gunn said grinning at the petite blonde who he had worked with many times before.
Buffy laughed.
"Well princess, we're ready for you" Gunn said
"Okay" Buffy said and stood up, her feeling of apprehension returning with full force. She knew everyone was waiting to see what she had on and when she dropped her gown she knew they were not disappointed.
Buffy almost laughed out loud when she saw the shocked looks on everyone's faces. Only Angelus seemed to be looking at her expressionless. And that intrigued her. She knew where the shock was coming from, there she was, Buffy Summers, princess of pop, wearing a pair of leather hotpants and an almost see through lace corset top.
Gunn had Buffy pose with Blood Lust in every conceivable position before there was a wardrobe change. For the next series of shots the guys wore beautifully tailored silk shirts with silk trousers. Spike took off his collar. But somehow Blood Lust were able to make even seemingly elegant clothes look sexy and edgy. Buffy wore a silk short dress that was low cut in front and completely backless. They went through the motions again until Gunn was satisfied that he had enough and he ordered them to change again. This time the guys were in Blood Lust Rocker mode. Black lipstick and black eyeliner, they even wore fake fangs that they always wore at performances. Buffy wore pristine white lingerie that would make any man lose it on sight. Her make up was in direct contrast to her outfit, she had on dark colours that accentuated her beauty but made her look anything but innocent. Gunn had Buffy pose very sexily with all the boys but he noticed straight away she seemed to have more chemistry with Angelus. Gunn had taken over two hundred shots before he announced he was done, but they were only going to use five or six in the spread.
For the cover Lorne, after a quick discussion with Gunn, decided to put the two singers together. Angelus and Buffy both went to wardrobe but since Angelus was only told to lose the shirt and change into another pair of leather pants he was done fairly quickly. He went to his room to have his make up toned down and just relaxed till he was called.
Buffy on the other hand was taking a little longer than necessary. The cover shot had been decided when it was going to be just her and now that she was posing with Angelus, Buffy wasn't sure she wanted to go through with it. Lilah, Anya and Willow were trying to convince her to just do it but….
Anya walked out and asked Lorne to have the set cleared out except for Gunn and he immediately agreed, Once all the technicians were gone, Anya went back in to call Buffy.
Spike and Oz were sitting at the back lazing around while Angelus waited impatiently for Buffy to get to the set. He watched as Willow went upto Spike and Oz and after a short discussion they followed her out. They had been gone for a while and Angelus felt his irritation mounting.
'What the fuck is taking her so long?' he wondered.
When Buffy walked out she was wearing her robe again. She walked directly upto Angelus who was already in front of the camera and looking him straight in the eye she shrugged the robe of her shoulders and tossed it aside.
Angelus felt his mouth dry up. Standing in front of him clad in only a pair of black lacy panties was Buffy Summers. He couldn't stop himself from looking up and down her slender frame and he almost groaned out loud when he felt himself getting hard.
"Like what you see?" Buffy meant for her words to come out rude but they came out as a breathy moan.
Angelus caught himself and smirked at her, "Oh yeah" he murmured and almost without thought he raised his hand and trailed one finger up her side.
Buffy shivered at his touch. She stepped closer to him and tilted her head up and was about to say something when she hears Gunn's voice giving them directions.
Buffy pulled away and turned to Gunn with her arms crossed in front of her chest.
"Listen, I don't want my boobs in any of the shots? You get that right?" Buffy demanded.
"I know I know, Lorne filled me in" Gunn said. "Just do as I say ok?"
Both Buffy and Angelus nodded.
Gunn told Angelus to sit down on the mattress that had been laid out. And then Gunn instructed Buffy to straddle him.
'Oh Boy' Angelus thought as Buffy sat down on him.
"Angelus I need you press your chest against Buffy's" Gunn said.
Angelus and Buffy did a few shots like this before Gunn asked them to change their positions. After a few more shots Gunn told the two of them to get up.
"Buffy stand in front of Angelus ok? I want you to push your back up against him"
Buffy did as she was told.
"Now Angelus I want you to cup Buffy's breasts with your hands"
Angelus slowly reached his arms around her and brought his hands up to her breasts. He cautiously covered them with his hands. Buffy and he had not exchanged a single word throughout the last bit of the shoot which was very different to earlier when all four of them had been kidding around while taking the group shots. He felt Buffy go still at his touch and then he felt her nipples harden. Angelus had to force himself to think un-sexy thoughts but he knew Buffy could feel his hard-on.
'Fuck!' he thought angrily.
'Oh my God' Buffy thought.
Both of them tried to keep their minds off the other person's obvious arousal. Gunn's voice shooting them commands at every moment helped.
"Okay Angelus I need you to turn away from Buffy and Buffy honey I need you to turn to face Angelus's back. Now press up against him. Slip one of your arms around his waist. That's right honey. I like that. But I want you to give me a little something extra. Maybe touch him with your other hand. NO, Angelus do not move your head. I need your profile in this shot. You too Buffy, show me your beautiful face"
Gunn kept yelling out instructions and both singers were made to change positions so quickly and so often that they were starting to get real tired. Finally after what seemed like forever, Gunn shouted,
"It's a wrap people"
After writing this I realized that its very much like the story Opposites Attract by Indie and Tango. So I just want to give credit where credit is due, their story did inspire this but mine is going yo be VERY different!
Please Review. Don't worry about my GWTW stories, they will be updated. For those of you who read Soulmates Forever, I do plan on finishing it.. someday!
