AN: A oneshot I wrote a while ago but never posted here. NO beta.
Stefan looked at all the photographs had had taken over the semester. He was going to have his first gallery show and he was picking out which photos to show. He had a few urban landscapes and nature, but the ones that stood out most to him were the ones he had taken of his friends. Specifically Caroline and Klaus. Two people that had never actually met but the way he had shot it, he could sense a longing within both of them. He had used them separately on photo shoots. Caroline was his friend and willingly agreed to be a model for him. At first it was simple, pictures of her outside, riding a merry go round, then he got creative. He managed to convince Caroline to put on a dress and swim around in the pool. He then convinced her to lay in a pool of water in his studio filled with milk and smoke. The effect was incredible, almost ethereal. With Klaus he convinced him to do the same things. He had Klaus walk around the lake, around the park, stare off in the distance, look at the merry go round as it was being dismantled. He even convinces Klaus to swim in the pool. The fabric from this clothes floating around him made him look angelic almost.
Stefan placed the images he took of them separately and saw how powerful they were together. There was a sense of longing, of loss, of desire even though the two of them had never met. He had to get the two of them together and shoot them.
"Care, I need to shoot a few more pictures of you for my gallery opening" Stefan said into the phone
"More? I thought you had enough" Caroline replied
"Just a few more. They came out really great, I just need a few more. This is my first big gallery exhibition, you know I need it to be perfect"
"Alright fine, but no more throwing milk on me"
"Eh, I'll try not to. and I'm bringing someone else"
"What?"
"Just trust me ok?"
"Stefan, do you need to borrow money again?" Klaus asked
"No, I just need to shoot you again"
"Again? I'm starting to feel a bit cheapened here"
"Not all of us have gallery showings like you"
"Well there is something to be said about actually creating art than just snapping a picture"
"Can you just agree to this and I won't bother you again"
"Lies, you'll be calling me again next week"
"No I'll be calling your sister instead"
"Stefan!"
"I'll text you the details!"
Caroline showed up in Stefan's studio.
"So what are we doing today?" Caroline asked
"feel like going for a swim?"
Klaus walked into Stefan's studio and found him putting black plastic sheets on the floor. Next to it was a small pool filled with water.
"What are we doing today?" Klaus asked
"Feel like a swim?" Stefan asked
Caroline walked out in a tiny string bikini.
"You said no more milk" Caroline said
"I said I'd try not to throw it at you. It'll just be in the water"
"Like last time?"
"Yes"
"Stefan mate, I know we're practically family but this is a bit much" Klaus said walking out
Caroline turned around and saw Klaus in a tiny speedo. Klaus stopped and saw how tiny Caroline's bikini was.
"Alright you two, get in the pool" Stefan said
"What? With him?" Caroline asked
"Yes, with him. Klaus play nice. Caroline stop glaring" Stefan said
Stefan started up the smoke machine behind them. Caroline got into the pool and Klaus moved to get in when Stefan stopped him.
"Caroline, lay down in the water, but not fully. Keep your head above the water. Klaus don't get into the water fully. Just hold her body like you're lifting her out of the water" Stefan ordered
Stefan started taking pictures of the two. Klaus tried to keep his composure as her legs rubbed against his. He tightened his jaw and tried to think of Elijah naked while he was pressed against Caroline's body.
"Caroline, I can see your bikini, can you just untie the strings and move them out of the way?" Stefan asked
Caroline untied the strings of her bikini around her neck and moved them out of the way. The water started to cause the fabric to float up and away from her skin. Klaus started to think of Kol naked, of Finn naked, dirty diapers, of anything. Caroline felt something on her thigh but didn't react to it. She was just hoping her bikini top wasn't going to float away
"Caroline just take the bikini top off, it's getting in the way of the shot" Stefan said
"Stefan!" Caroline yelled
"I'm not going to shoot you naked, relax, and if I were, it would be tasteful" Stefan said
"I don't want him staring at my boobs!" Caroline yelled
"I have a name! And this is completely awkward enough as it is, I don't want to look at your boobs as you called them"
"Care, just do this please, the faster we do this the faster we can finish" Stefan said
"You could have at least gotten me pasties" Caroline said
"What the hell is that?"
"Men!" Caroline groaned
She took off her bikini top and tossed it aside. Klaus forced his eyes not to look at her.
"Klaus, lift her up more but have your arm block her boob, Caroline arch your back more" Stefan said
Klaus moved so he could lift her up and used his arm to cover her breast. His other arm was supporting him from falling. His was sitting on her thigh and Caroline became more aware that something was poking her.
"Klaus lean down and kiss her neck, no the other side. Caroline arch your back more. Lift your leg up to cover his speedo" Stefan ordered while taking more pictures
Caroline felt the heat from his body on hers. She could feel how hard he was against her thigh. His scent surrounded her and she started to feel heat pool in her stomach.
"Care, reach up and put your arm around his neck. Klaus move your arm down to her waist and lift her up more. Care take your bikini off" Stefan said
"What? No!" Caroline yelled
"It looks weird that you have a bikini on, don't worry I'm not gonna show your lady parts. Klaus is keeping his speedo on so you don't have to worry about that" Stefan said
"Stefan I'm not getting naked" Caroline said
"It's implied nudity, all your bits are covered up, besides this is looking really great" Stefan said
"What exactly are we shooting here?" Klaus asked
"I'll show you at the gallery opening. Just do this for me please?" Stefan pleaded
Carline was naked, sitting on Klaus's lap in a shallow pool of water. Stefan made Caroline straddle Klaus, to cover his speedo. His face was in her breasts and he tried not to stare. Caroline tried not to let it show how he was affecting her. The way his hands held her body, was leaving goosebumps on her skin.
"Cold love?" Klaus asked
"Yes" Caroline replied
Klaus rubbed his hands along her arms in an attempt to warm her up. Stefan snapped a few pictures, not sure what the intimate gesture was. But he saw the look in Caroline's eyes. Caroline was lucky that they were in a shallow pool, otherwise he'd realize how wet she was getting sitting on him. She moved a little, rubbing up against him, she felt him move and heard him hiss.
"Don't do that" Klaus said holding her stiff
"I thought you liked that" Caroline smirked
"Hey Stefan, whoa, nakedness" Bonnie said as she walked into the studio
"Bonnie, you're here finally" Stefan said
"Yeah and I brought what you wanted"
"Great"
"Stefan, you said no more milk!" Caroline whined
"I said I wasn't going to throw it on you" Stefan said
"You're pouring it on me!"
"On both of you, but it's just milk"
"Are you lactose love?" Klaus asked
Caroline glared at him and moved slightly enough to tease him.
"That wasn't very nice love" Klaus said
Bonnie was above the both of them and poured the milk down on the both of them. Stefan was quickly snapping pictures as the milk flowed off their bodies. Klaus shook his head to get the milk out of his eyes. He looked so adorable and Caroline couldn't help but run her fingers through his hair. Stefan set up his camera on a timer, so it would take multiple pictures.
"We need more milk" Stefan said as he climbed up the ladder
Both he and Bonnie poured milk down on the both of them as the camera snapped away. Klaus held her closer, his lips on her neck as the milk poured down. Caroline placed her hands around his neck, her fingers in his hair. Klaus ventured lower towards her breasts and she arched her back allowing him. Klaus leaned forward, the milk hitting his back, splashing all over. Caroline pushed him back, the milk pouring over his hair and eyes. She giggled and pushed the hair out of his face. He looked so adorable to her.
"Just a few more shots and we'll be done" Stefan said pouring more milk down
Klaus's hand reached up and touched the curve of her breast, the side of her breast, watching her nipples pucker and harden. His lips descended and kissed the tops of her breasts and then the valley between them. Caroline rubbed herself even more on him, teasing him further. Her nails scraped down his back and her legs pulled him closer against her. Her hand trailed down his chest, where her fingers played with the fabric of the speedo he was wearing. Klaus growled and pulled her hand away. He didn't know who started it but her lips were on his, kissing him, her breasts were pressed against his chest. The camera continued taking pictures and Stefan finally ran out of milk to pour. He and Bonnie began climbing down. Caroline pushed Klaus away slightly to catch her breath.
"I'm out of milk, so I'm going to get some more" Stefan said
"Yes, cause you know making me carry all these gallons of milk was so nice of you" Bonnie added
"We'll be right back, you can take a break or shower or whatever. Just don't leave" Stefan said
Bonnie and Stefan walked out, leaving the two of them alone.
"Bathroom" Caroline said sliding off him
Klaus got up and immediately followed her. The bathroom door slammed shut and Caroline pushed Klaus against it. She was kissing him, her hands reaching down to pull the speedo off him. Her hand wrapped around him, and started to stroke him. Klaus grabbed her and pushed her against the door. He lifted her up and slowly pushed into her. Hours of teasing had made her so wet, that he slid into her easily. He let out a groan when he was finally inside her. His eyes closed and he paused for a moment relishing in the feel of her. There was a playful slap on his behind and he opened his eyes to look at her.
"Move" Caroline demanded
"Demanding" Klaus said
"You've been teasing me for hours and you're just going to stand there?"
"Hold on love"
The door shook as Klaus thrust his hips repeatedly into her. Her nails clawed down his back as she tried to hold onto him. He heard her little moans and nipped at her neck. They were both kissing when the door finally gave way and they both fell back. They paused and looked around and realized they were still alone.
"Don't stop" Caroline said
"Sweetheart-"
Caroline pushed Klaus and forced him onto his back. She sat on top of him while he looked up at her, his hands on her hips.
"Guess I'll have to do everything" Caroline said
She placed her hands on his chest, admiring the tattoo on his shoulder and slowly she began to move.
Stefan and Bonnie came back into the studio to find a trail of water leading to the bathroom, the door still on the ground, and more water on the floor.
"Caroline? Klaus?" Stefan called out
Caroline looked at the address on her phone and walked into the building. It had been a month since she last spoke to Stefan. After what happened in his studio she was too embarrassed to face him. She had sex with Klaus in his studio, and then broke the bathroom door. They both then left and went to Klaus's apartment where they continued to have sex until the next day. Caroline slipped away in the early morning ashamed of what had happened.
She walked in and saw the photos Stefan had used. She saw that she was on one side and Klaus's pictures were on another. She was naturally drawn to Klaus's face and started on his side. She studied each picture, Klaus looking in the distance, almost as if he were waiting for someone. He seemed so lonely. She followed the pictures until she reached the ones of them together and gasped. There they were together, holding each other in the throes of passion, seemingly naked. Klaus looked at her with so much desire and want. And she looked so beautiful, she almost couldn't believe it. She looked at the pictures and then finally at the one in the middle. It was one of the first pictures they took together. And it looked as if she were dead and Klaus was just holding onto her, to keep her from slipping away. It was almost tragic in a way.
"Stefan did manage to make us look tasteful" Klaus said from behind her
Caroline turned around and saw him standing there.
"Surprised to see me love? Imagine my surprise when you had slipped out in the morning, leaving me alone"
"Something tells me you're never alone"
"But I was, I searched for you for a month. Stefan was no help, he was quite cross about his bathroom door"
Caroline flushed pink when she remembered what caused the bathroom door to break.
"I of course helped him fix it but wouldn't help me in finding you. You were a mystery. I only came in hopes that you would show up"
"Why?"
"I thought it was quite obvious. I fancy you"
"We had sex, we didn't get married"
"Are you proposing to me?"
"Ugh no, just stop. I'm just here for Stefan"
"And I'm here for you"
"You want to have me in the janitor's closet?"
"How tawdry. Unless you're into that"
"what? I'm not! Stop that!"
"But I do know what you are into, you like it when I kiss this part on your neck and touch you-"
"Stop it!"
"Do you really want me to stop?"
Caroline grabbed his hand and started to lead him away from the exhibit.
"You're her, You're him" Elena said
"Excuse me?" Caroline asked
"I'm sorry, I just saw the pictures, and didn't think you'd be here. Are you two together?"
"No" Caroline said
"Looks like you are" Elena said looking at their hands
"Elena, you found them" Stefan said coming from behind
Stefan kissed Elena's cheek and looked at Caroline holding Klaus's hand.
"You broke my door" Stefan said
"Which I fixed" Klaus answered
"That you did. You're lucky your pretty face worked out well for my exhibit" Stefan said
"Glad to be of help" Klaus said
"You're the models" Lexi said
Everyone turned and saw Lexi standing there.
"I can see why he chose to use you both. I'm Alexandra Branson from Branson publishing. And I'd love to speak to you" Lexi said
"yes of course, I know of your magazine" Stefan said
"Call me Lexi"
Caroline pulled Klaus's hand away from the crowd and into a closet. She pushed him against the door.
"Haven't we done this before?" Klaus teased
"Shut up, don't ruin this" Caroline said
"You seem to like doors"
"You can't seem to take directions"
Caroline kissed him, while her hands reached down to his pants and she tried to unbutton them. Klaus began kissing her neck.
"Are you going to run off after this?" Klaus asked
"Depends on how well your performance is"
"So, if you could stop by monday at my office we could discuss this more. We'd love to have you on our team" Lexi said
"yes, of course, I'll be there" Stefan said
The two were walking down the hallway when suddenly the door to the closet fell onto the floor and two bodies were on top of it, half clothed and on top of each other. Caroline and Klaus looked up and saw Stefan and Lexi looking at them both.
"What is with you two and doors?" Stefan asked
Caroline tried to cover herself up and get off Klaus. Klaus covered himself and got up. Rather than stay there and be embarrassed he grabbed Caroline and they both ran out.
"Where are we going?" Caroline asked
"I'd say my place but I'm not sure if you're going to to sneak out again" Klaus answered
"Then come to my place instead"
