Work Text:
Today was Caitlyn and Vi's first interview together. The air conditioning in the room didn't quite work, it was awfully hot enough to elicit sweat from both of them. Caitlyn helped herself with a mini-fan, offering it to Vi who was sitting right beside her. It was the first interview for their blockbuster hit of a movie, and they surely didn't expect to be met with technical issues.
“Vi, are you alright? You're sweating so much,” Caitlyn asks, handing Vi a handkerchief from her handbag. Caitlyn the resourceful, as always.
“I'm alright, cupcake. It's just sweat, but thank you,” Vi replies, using the handkerchief to wipe away the building sweat drops from her forehead.
“Apologies for the technical issues, this will only take a few minutes,” one of the staff reassured, both of them noted that it was okay and it wasn't too much of an inconvenience. You could never tell when those things would break.
“You're hot, aren't you?” Caitlyn asks the woman beside her, gesturing for Vi to face her direction. The latter was sweating bullets, and Caitlyn could only do so much with one handkerchief.
“I'm aware of that, cupcake,” Vi smirks playfully, “can't even keep your hands off of me, huh?"
“Literally, Vi. Don't get it twisted,” Caitlyn quipped, denying her girlfriends' accusation. As much as she'd hate to admit it, she was dating this moron.
Vi was handed the mini fan, Caitlyn using the handkerchief to wipe away moisture on her face. No one would spare them a glance, given that the other female cast were this close with each other as well. Most would only view this as a friendly gesture, and maybe it is, but for the fans viewing them from a more romantic lens, there's definitely more from this gesture alone. And both knew that the fans were actually right for once.
The air conditioning issue was quickly fixed thankfully, and Vi no longer wanted to kick herself for choosing style over practicality. Caitlyn, well, she knew how to dress for the weather and the occasion. A simple top with puff sleeves paired with a pencil skirt and black thigh highs, you just knew she grew up in a gated community just from her outfits. Meanwhile, Vi layered a hoodie and a leather jacket along with baggy jeans. If Vi knew it would get hot within five minutes of stepping into the studio, she would've bailed out.
The interviewer sat down on the seat across from them, and cameras were immediately rolling. This would be a fun session, Vi could tell that much. Especially since they have something in store for the fans, one that the majority would like.
“If I'm correct, this is the first movie that you two have worked together in. This film of yours immediately rose to fame and fans have been curious about how it is between you two. So Caitlyn, tell me, how was Vi as an acting partner? Was she anything like you anticipated?” The interviewer asked, while Caitlyn muddled for a while to think of a sufficient answer.
“Vi was amazing, really. Every single scene was done with care, and she was guiding me through multiple scenes that we were both in, intimate or not. Overall, I liked how professional she was while going through the script with me, and if I were to take another hands-on project with her as my pair, there might not be any hesitation,” Caitlyn replied, chuckling at her last sentence.
“Well, no one could possibly say no to someone like her. How about you, Vi? Anything you might want to say about how it was to work with THE Caitlyn Kiramman? Was it intimidating to work with someone who's been in the industry for so long?”
Vi only glanced at Caitlyn, taking the question into thought. Caitlyn had been in the industry since she was a child. She was intimidating alright, and there were definitely rising tensions between Vi and her acting senior. However, that information didn't need to be made public, they both agreed to keep what they have under wraps for the time being, after all. Being outed as actual girlfriends who dated after three months on set was good publicity given their popularity, but for now they didn't want randoms snooping into their private life for a cheque.
“Oh, it was definitely intimidating to work with her at first. The rift between our skills and growth as actors was definitely there while we worked together for the first time. Just like how I was to Cait, she definitely guided me with showing more emotion, expressions and of course, working on the bed scene. We probably have improved and learned from our time together on set, and it wasn't just Caitlyn who helped, everyone in the cast and crew was eager to hand out advices during intense scenes. With her experience in the industry, I could say she's been a big help with working out our roles,” Vi eagerly replied, earning her a smile from Caitlyn.
The two weren't particularly that close when they started shooting, but when it came around that they'd have to practice lines together, that's where this entire thing started. It was Vi's first movie after garnering attention from being in a popular teen series, and this was Caitlyn's sixth. Kiramman was already a household name when Vi entered the scene, but when they were paired up as a movie couple, it somehow garnered more attention from the public, drastically increasing popularity and ticket sales. Talk about a lesbian movie that finally acquired its deserved reign.
The interview went on for quite some time, discussing moments in the movie, how it was to work with some of the big shots of the industry, and finally, the question regarding the personal relationship of the lead actors. It definitely wasn't the most important aspect of the film, however, with Caitlyn and Vi's chemistry on set and off of it, it sparked some curiosity within their viewers and their own individual fandoms.
“Now, here's the question that everyone in the CaitVi fandom is curious about,” the interviewer paused, allowing Vi to chuckle at the ship name for a moment. Admittedly, she's scrolled through the hashtag on multiple platforms, it was quite amusing to see her work garner so much attention so fast.
“Is there an actual attraction between the two of you off set? Now, I don't mean to pry in, it's simply mind boggling how good your chemistry is. The tension, the need, and the gazes on set. It's already made everyone suspicious of you two,” the interviewer asked in a light-hearted manner, the two women looked at each other as if to ask if he was being serious.
“Sorry to disappoint, but what Vi and I have is strictly professional. The public are allowed to form their opinions, to each their own, but it's merely business. Nothing more, nothing less,” Caitlyn dismisses the question with a wave and laugh, her blue eyes catching Vi's gray ones.
It was silly thought indeed, but it was true to an extent. Caitlyn knew too well how Vi's lips tasted, how soft her body was underneath her rugged clothing, and she definitely knew how good Vi was with her tongue. The woman was skilled in bed, in multiple ways than one. Vi just knew her way around Caitlyn's body, her weak spots and where she'd like her kisses.
And those damned fingers, they set her body ablaze.
“Now, now, let's not jump to conclusions. We both love our fans, but there's simply nothing there. We're just actors, it's our job,” another lie from Vi, her eyes shifting towards Caitlyn to give the other a knowing look.
They just couldn't share their relationship with the world, not yet. Being public was on their own terms, not the media's, or their company's. They'll continue to tiptoe on a tightrope with this secret until they're ready, but for now, they'll simply just make love behind closed doors. They'll give up their relationship's privacy when they finally mutually agree on it.

Once the interview was wrapped up, the two went their separate ways, Caitlyn with her manager and driver, and Vi alone. Sitting in the backseat with her phone in hand, she stared out of the windows. Untinted. Not suitable for whatever she had in mind, then again, this wasn't her car. It was Mel's, and she had so much respect for her, she wouldn't dare defile the woman's car.
“Steb, could you drop me off at the beach? I have something to attend to, it's pretty urgent,” Caitlyn asks her driver, to which she earns no response except a nod.
“Personal business with Vi, isn't it? You should be careful. You never know when a hidden camera is pointed your way,” Mel warns, checking her phone for anything else that was scheduled for this week.
Caitlyn nods in return, appreciating Mel's concern. Her manager was only thinking about what was best for her, and keeping a relationship secret was one of the hardest tasks for anyone known as a public figure. Mel had been the one looking out for her ever since she was finally old enough to make decisions for herself, she'd never dare try anything that would stain Mel's reputation.
“Of course, we'll both be on high alert,” Caitlyn answers, her grip on her phone tight as it buzzed from an incoming message. It was from Vi.
violet: i'm here. just come over to my car when you get here, love you xx
[an image of the sun setting down the horizon is attached right after the message]
Caitlyn smiled, typing up her response. She knew Mel was trying to sneak a peek so she tilted her phone to the side. Mel sighed, shaking her head at Caitlyn as if she was actually offended. Caitlyn only giggled, knowing it was only playful banter and finally sent her response to Vi.
cupcake: I'll be there in a moment. I love you too.
It only took five minutes until the car finally started to slow down and she could see the beach. They were finally here. She slightly fixed herself, checking if her ponytail was loose, if her lipgloss was perfect. Caitlyn eventually got out of the vehicle, leaving the rest of her things in the car.
“Mel, could you please bring the rest of my stuff home? And please tell my father I won't be home for the evening?” Caitlyn asks, to which Mel agrees.
After Mel and Steb drove off, Caitlyn was left to her own devices as she spotted a blue Porsche Cayenne parked in the distance along with the familiar shade of pink hair. It was her Violet, that much she could tell.
Heading towards the vehicle, she could see Vi's face brighten up when they saw each other. The beach was fairly empty, Caitlyn allowing herself to nuzzle against Vi's embrace as they reached for each other. Professional, they said. We're only actors, they said. If anyone ever saw them right now, that person would know that whatever they said during interviews were a bunch of bullshit.
“Hey there, cupcake. Missed me that much?” Vi asks the blue haired woman in her arms with a slight chuckle, her face against Caitlyn's shoulders.
“Don't get too cocky, Violet. Can't a woman want a hug?” Caitlyn replied, her eyes piercing through Vi's own, their gazes soft, tender even.
“Of course you can. I'm simply pointing out how you're acting like you haven't seen me in days when we saw each other at the interview this afternoon,” Vi answers, parting her body with Caitlyn's. Although, it was true that they haven't seen each other in days.
“We haven't seen each other in days until this afternoon. We're lucky to have this evening cleared out after the events and the interview we had to attend,” Caitlyn corrects, earning a chuckle from the woman in front of her.
They sat down on a bench right in front of the beach, a railing separating the sidewalk from the sandy areas. The waves were so strong tonight that you could hear it from afar, both of them watching the sunset over the horizon. There were barely any people at this specific hour, and now at least they had some peace and quiet before returning to their busy job responsibilities as actresses.
“You think we'll be able to do this when we're finally public?” Vi asks, her head laid on Caitlyn's shoulder.
Caitlyn doesn't answer for a moment, thinking it over. It's true they might be followed around when they go out publicly, either by paparazzi or by obsessed fans. That wasn't the ideal situation for either of them. Then again, they couldn't keep hiding away forever. It was getting annoying to sneak out just to see each other, add the clashing schedules that prevent them from seeing each other for a while. It was starting to get stressful.
“We might. We'll have to deal with the paparazzi though. I don't really mind the pictures, as long as they send me a copy,” Caitlyn answers, hearing a chuckle from Vi.
“You'd kiss me in front of a camera?”
“I've already done that multiple times, no shame in doing it again.”
Vi only looks at her, her head no longer laid on Caitlyn's shoulder. She's not ashamed, that's for sure. It entices Vi, it was what made Vi fall for her in the first place. A moment, just to gaze at Caitlyn, her eyes, her lips, the rest of her features, it was all that it took to get Vi distracted. She was breathtakingly beautiful, it was getting harder not to just kiss her out of nowhere. Maybe, she shouldn't hold back, not this time.
“Have I ever told you that you always look so kissable?”
“Vi, what are you getting at?” Caitlyn asks, her body still as Vi pulls her in for a kiss.
It was sudden but not unwelcome. It took moments before Caitlyn relaxed herself and reciprocated the kiss, her arms wrapping around Vi's neck to keep her close. It was a plain, quick kiss, tamer than what they're used to. Both of them laughed at themselves for easily giving in.
“Sorry,” Vi apologizes, her gaze soft and longing.
“Don’t be. Do it again.”
Vi’s pupils widen at Caitlyn's request, shaking her head at her lover's eagerness. Still seated on the bench, Vi's hand traverses to Caitlyn's cheek to pull her in for another kiss while her other hand was on the latter's waist. This second kiss was more needy, both of them getting more excited as the seconds passed. Vi immediately parted away when it was getting too heated, looking around then back into Caitlyn's eyes. No one was there except for them.
“We should move somewhere,” Caitlyn mutters with a small smile, both of them agreeing.
They walked back straight to the car, Caitlyn getting into the backseat as Vi followed her in, closing the door. The atmosphere got more intense inside the vehicle, their eyes never leaving each other's gazes. Caitlyn was swift, pushing off the leather jacket that Vi had on as both of them leaned in for another kiss. It was more heated, more intoxicating. It made them lose their breath but they couldn't care.
Groans and heavy breaths enveloped the car, their tongues clashing with one another. Vi's fingers fiddled with the buttons of Caitlyn's top, pulling it off of the woman with ease. Vi pushed Caitlyn back against the door on the other side of the car, chasing her lips like it was her lifeline. Eventually, they were too breathless to continue kissing so they had to pull away with heavy breaths. The two shared a fit of giggles, Vi pressing her forehead against Caitlyn's as she shifted to get on top of her lover.
“Aren't you afraid of getting caught with me like this?”
“Getting caught, sure. With you? I don't fucking think so,” Vi replies earnestly, pulling off her hoodie.
Icy blue eyes wandered to Vi's chest, looking in admiration and awe. Top surgery scars, that was the first detail that caught Caitlyn's attention. Her fingers reached out to gently caress the said scars, looking up at her lover as she bit her lip. She's aroused, and isn't ashamed to show how much she desires Vi right now, right here in the backseat of this car. Vi didn't hesitate to dive into the crook of her neck, pressing soft kisses before proceeding to nibble, leaving red marks all over Caitlyn's neck, and down to her chest.
Vi kept her eyes on Caitlyn, managing to leave behind multiple red marks on the taller woman's chest, each followed by a soft kiss. Both of them were getting sweaty with each second, although not one paid any attention to it. It was getting more difficult for Vi to go even lower, the space in the backseat limited and not quite suited for such activities. However, Caitlyn wouldn't let it end yet. She was too turned on to just get cockblocked by something so trivial such as a cramped backseat.
Caitlyn kicked the passenger seat as far as she could, trying to make space for Vi to kneel on the floor so she could trail her kisses lower. Vi noticed this and pushed the passenger seat forward, settling herself on the car floor. Caitlyn’s pulse quickened as Vi undid her brassiere, setting it to the side then softly suckling on her nub. Vi's right hand moved over to fondle Caitlyn's breast, the other pushing up the pencil skirt the latter wore. The skirt bunched around Caitlyn's hip, Vi's finger tauntingly hooking onto the lacy black pair she had on.
“Black? Did you lose your blue pairs, Cait?” Vi teases, earning her an impatient sigh from Caitlyn.
“Take it off of me already, Violet.”
The simple mention of her name only made Vi more eager to please. Vi never broke eye contact as she continued her ministrations, her lips finally letting go of her lover's nipple with a soft pop. Caitlyn's eyes were glazed over, her cheeks adorned with a pink flush. She couldn't help but beam as Vi's lips dragged lower, and lower, and even lower. Caitlyn shivered as Vi spread her legs apart, dropping a kiss on her clothed cunt.
Vi slowly pulled down Caitlyn's lacy underwear with one hand, Caitlyn wriggling herself out of it to help Vi. Her hand was still on Caitlyn's breast, kneading gently as she pressed a gentle kiss on Caitlyn's inner thighs. A simple sigh left Caitlyn's lips, her breath hitching as Vi finally placed multiple kisses on her clit. Burrowing her tongue into Caitlyn only caused the woman to gasp, Caitlyn's hand reaching for Vi's locks. The pleasure on Caitlyn's face satisfied Vi, causing her to be more vigorous with her mouth.
“You're so sweet, cupcake,” She compliments, feeling the rush of heat running through her body as she flicks her tongue on Caitlyn's clit.
Caitlyn groans, moving her hips forward as she pushes Vi's head down. Vi audibly snickers, lapping up the woman's slicked up cunt. Caitlyn moans, gasping at every motion that Vi does with her mouth. Caitlyn's mouth was left agape, body shaking as she felt herself come close to her high. Within seconds, Caitlyn felt herself spill on Vi's mouth, her body weakly sat on the backseat.
Vi relished in the sweet taste of Caitlyn’s juices, not letting a drop go to waste. However, she just wasn't done yet. Her hand on Caitlyn's breast moved lower, to the woman's waist, her hip, all the way down to her thighs, threatening to slip into Caitlyn's wet sensitive pussy. It was wet enough to slip one finger in and so she did, pumping at a slow pace as she continued to flick her tongue over Caitlyn's abused clit.
“Violet, oh my god...” Caitlyn whimpers, her body reaching a feverish heat as Vi pleases her.
One finger was all it took for her to get noisy, Vi's finger curling just right at her g-spot. Her eyes rolled back, completely blissed out as her back arched. Vi was having the time of her life, getting even more turned on with Caitlyn's reactions. She had the woman whining, moaning, and gasping with just her finger and her tongue. If that wasn't something she should be proud of, then what is?
“So close again... Violet, please,” Caitlyn begs, unclear with what she wants.
However, it seemed like Vi just knew what to do, and how to do it. She moved back up, her lips peppering featherlight kisses on Caitlyn's neck. Then gently, she slid in another finger, her thumb rubbing Caitlyn's clit. A loud gasp was heard from Caitlyn's mouth, her mouth left open as she tried to catch her breath and feel how good this was. Pumping her fingers in and out, Vi timed her hip thrusts with the movement of her fingers, trying to mimic their previous sessions with a strap on.
“You like that? Do I make you feel good, Cait?” Vi asks hoarsely, despite already knowing the answer.
Caitlyn's arms wrapped around her body, clinging onto her for dear life as the woman's legs trembled with each pump of her fingers. Her thumb rubbing along was only the cherry on top of the ice cream, there was definitely more to come. Vi's pace had gone rougher, the sounds of sex and moans enveloping the car. Caitlyn had bitten her lip to suppress the sounds she would make, letting out a muffled groan as Vi looked at her while frantically pushing in her digits.
“Yes, yes, Violet... S-so close, please let me cum. Please!" Caitlyn cries out, her hips moving in rhythm with Vi's fingers.
“Cum for me, Cait. Come on, you can do it, can't you?” Vi encourages, and that was enough for Caitlyn to topple over.
Caitlyn let herself spill on Vi's hand, her back arching and body shivering from the pleasure. She was still on a high, feeling ecstasy from the sex. Her legs twitched from her release, shivering every time Vi's thumb grazed her swollen clit. She held Vi close, her body feeling empty when Vi pulled her fingers out. The taller woman looked up at Vi, caressing her cheek lovingly. Vi chuckled at her lover's flushed expression, bringing her fingers to her lips to have a taste of Caitlyn once again.
“Still as sweet as a cupcake,” Vi praises, her other hand on the woman's cheek.
Both of them were still reeling from the pleasure, their hair disheveled, their bodies sweaty. Vi moved over, sitting beside Caitlyn, pulling her in just to relax for a while. They'll both need to recover for a while, especially Caitlyn, and cuddling was one of the ways to conserve energy.
“Are you okay, Cait? Need anything?” Vi asks, looking at the woman snuggling against her.
“I’m quite alright, just give me a minute. And I'll definitely need some food after that,” Caitlyn replies, her body feeling boneless.
Vi smiles, pressing a soft kiss on her forehead. “Come over for dinner? I'll make anything you want.”
“You spoil me,” Caitlyn comments, resting her head on Vi's shoulder.
“And that's because you deserve it.”
They both snuggled up against each other in silence, enjoying each other's company. It'll take them a while to gather themselves and dress up to drive back to Vi's place, but that was alright. They'll take their time, there was no rush. Time was slow when they were just together, without the pressure of appearing perfect in front of a camera.
—
The audience laughed at the joke Vi made, all the attention was brought upon the couple. The host was intrigued with each of their responses, and was quite interested to see how it would play out with this last question he had on hand.
“If ever given the chance, would you agree to date Vi?” the host asked, Caitlyn's eyes wandering to Vi who was on a seat right beside her.
This was their last talk show regarding their movie, and of course, there will be some questions that will need to be answered. The audience had eagerly waited for Caitlyn's answer, and even Violet was (pretending to be) curious. Caitlyn smiled, glancing at Vi with a knowing look as she finally said her answer.
“If ever given the chance? I probably would.”
The audience cheered loudly, some even raising their CaitVi banners in support of her answer. Caitlyn chuckled, while Vi rolled her eyes.
If only they knew.
