It all started when I said Gaspard Ulliel and Ian Somerhalder should be in a movie together having hot, hot sex.
thisisironic agreed with me and it turned into a joke about how they could be angsty strippers, which she then turned into them being rentboys and used as an idea for this
fanmix and
short fic. I looked through my itunes, I had a few ideas, and here I am with my very own contribution to this sexy but cracky pairing.
And I just wanna note for the record that this is pure crack and not intended to be anything other than that. I don't own or know Ian or Gaspard (although I wish I did).
Remember: Comments are love! =D
(I apologise in advance for both the crappy coverart and the lack of zip)
Air - Sexy BoyDans leurs yeux des dollars
Dans leurs sourires des diamants
Moi aussi un jour je serai beau comme un dieu
From the moment they first meet, Gaspard is instantly capitivated by how gorgeous Ian really is. Among all the other rentboys he's something of a God, and Gaspard can feel himself being both attracted and inspired.
Zero 7 - You're My FlameYou steal the wallet of a man with a gun
You make this seem like a whole lot of fun
Yeah you do
Ian is the Artful Dodger to Gaspard's Oliver Twist. He's experienced, playful, with just a hint of danger and a whole lot of lessons to teach.
Vast - TouchedI looked into your eyes and saw
A world that does not exist
I looked into your eyes and saw
A world I wish I was in
Gaspard falls in love with Ian.
Jeff Buckley - New Year's Prayeras you now are in your heart
fall in light
feel no shame for what you are
But Ian isn't as amazing as he appears; hidden beneath the surface is a complicated web of problems that he thinks he can solve with drugs and alcohol. When he's lost in the high everything feels okay.
David Usher - Black Black HeartAs I begin to lose my grip
On these realities you're sending
Taste your mind and taste your sex
I'm naked underneath your cover
Slowly, Ian is beginning to spiral out of control. He and Gaspard are together now but the normality of it is so foreign that he can't cope. Insecurities are starting to get the better of him.
Julie Delpy - Something A Bit VagueThere's something about the way you hurt me
Something vicious and definitely sick
There's something about the way you worry
Sometimes so caring and always confusing
Gaspard knows that Ian is complicated and he loves him regardless, but it doesn't make it any less confusing.
Incubus - Pardon MeA decade ago, I never thought I would be
At twenty-three on the verge of spontaneous combustion
Woe is me
But I guess that it comes with the territory
Ian's on the verge of a meltdown but he won't stop.
I Monster - Daydream In BlueI dream a dirty dream of you baby
you're swinging from the chandelier
I'm climbing up the walls 'cos I want ya
but when I reach you, you disappear
An 'Ian is high' song, heh.
All American Rejects - Move AlongSo a day when you've lost yourself completely
Could be a night when your life ends
Such a heart that will lead you to deceiving
All the pain held in your
Hands are shaking cold
Your hands are mine to hold
Gaspard can see it's starting to get bad and he wants to reach out and help.
Azure Ray - RiseAnd look how low I've sunk
Don't ask me to rise
I'll lose you when I'm high
But Ian is less than happy to let Gaspard see the real, broken him.
Aqualung - Tongue TiedWhat went wrong
I need to know
I can feel
You're letting go
Ian's pulling away from Gaspard. He's becoming distant and unemotional, and Gaspard's starting to hear rumours that his isn't the only bed Ian's been in lately.
Lifehouse - Sick Cycle CarouselSo when will this end it goes on and on
Over and over and over again
Keep spinning around I know that it won't stop
Till I step down from this for good
He knows he has a problem, and he knows now that he needs to admit it and get help, but Ian is so dependant on the drugs that he's lost all hope of becoming clean.
Jimmy Eat World - Drugs or MeI wish that you could see
This face in front of me
You're sorry, you swear it, you're done
But I can't tell you from the drugs
Ian's promises of getting clean all fall through and it's all starting to get too much for Gaspard to handle. He gives Ian an ultimatum: The drugs or him.
A Perfect Circle - PassiveWake up and face me, don’t play dead, 'cause maybe
Someday I’ll walk away and say, You fucking disappoint me!
Maybe you’re better off this way
Gaspard can't take it anymore. His ultimatum falls on deaf ears and he leaves Ian and the 'agency' they work at.
Dave Matthews Band - The Space BetweenThe space between
In your heart and mine
Is the space we’ll fill with time
Ian and Gaspard are no longer together but they're still in love. Gaspard is regretting his decision to walk out, despite the pain Ian put him through, but the space between them is too great. Only time can tell.
Lifehouse - StormAnd I will walk on water
And you will catch me if I fall
And I will get lost into your eyes
And everything will be all right
Over time Ian is slowly getting clean, and though he still has rough patches, he knows it'll be worth it when he's healthy enough to see Gaspard again. Even though they're currently apart, Gaspard was able to give Ian the hope he needed.
