Hot Attraction

A contest!

Why did he do that? Kagome was standing inside of her apartment leaning against the door she came in only minutes before. Her legs were on the verge of giving way. His touch sent sensations up and down her body. They had only known each other for a week…and it seemed like she was already hotly attracted to him. Well…he was hot.

She slammed her right fist against the door. Damn him…

Hmm…the private lesson of the day was interesting. He was looking forward to their meetings in the future. But why had he done…that?

He sat on his couch with his left fingers holding his chin as his elbow rested on his knee as he leaned forward staring at the wall in deep thought. He admitted that he had an attraction to the raven-haired beauty, but he wouldn't go any farther than that. I mean, look how his brother reacted to their intimate dance on stage.

She was a beautiful woman. And she was only nineteen. Him, being twenty-three, he wasn't too old for her. He slapped his forehead.

What was he thinking? He couldn't have a relationship with a student. Then again…anyone that saw them dancing, would say that they had a very intimate connection.

Sesshomaru sighed. What had he gotten himself into?

It was Monday morning and Kagome was walking towards her locker looking side to side to see if she could see Sango sneaking around anywhere. Inuyasha had called her the night before. He apologized for over-reacting and said that he would do anything to keep their relationship. As messed up as it was.

She sighed. Dumb ass…

She turned the lock to the right, then to the left, and then to the right again putting dial on the right numbers for the right combination. Once that was done, she opened her locker and put her un-needed books up and took out the ones she would need for the morning classes.

This was going to be a long day…

Lunch came around quickly. Kagome eventually found Sango and they were now sitting outside near the parking lot with Inuyasha and Miroku. Inuyasha's best friend, and Sango's eye candy. One problem with her approaching him…was the fact that he was a major pervert.

Kagome was silently eating her lunch when Sango suddenly looked up and her eyes widened. What was she looking at? Inuyasha must have also caught her stare, for he looked to where her eyes were and slightly growled. She looked at Miroku. She suspected he knew nothing of what was going on because he looked confused.

She turned her head to face the man of her thoughts. What on earth was he doing here! "Sess-Sesshomaru…"

He smirked when he stared into her deep blue orbs. "Hello Kagome." She was, he believed, the only one that denied calling him anything but his first name. Which undoubtedly was not what a student should say to her teacher. He liked her defiance.

He slightly glanced at Inuyasha and his smirk grew even wider. He held his hand out to Kagome with a piece of fabric in his hand. Her confusion rose, until it dawned on her and her beautiful cerulean eyes widened.

"Give me that!" She snatched the material from his hand with a red tint on her cheeks. He grinned.

"You left that at the studio yesterday." He nodded to her and Sango. "See you girls this afternoon."

Sango smiled and waved and Kagome just stayed turned from him. "What is it Kagome?" Sango asked. Kagome muttered something softly under her breath. No one caught it. "What was that?"

"My shirt." She scowled at the black fabric in her hand. She just had to take it off to practice with Sesshomaru. That's why she couldn't find it at her apartment last night. Let alone on her body.

"YOUR SHIRT!" Inuyasha stood up fuming. "What the fuck did you two do last night!"

Kagome's turn to be mad. "I thought you already apologized for over reacting!" She got right in his face. "We did nothing! In cases you didn't know it's a lot cooler when your wearing less clothes when dancing! Why the hell do you think when doing a dance like the tango, they wear such small dresses!"

Inuyasha seemed to cool down a bit. "It's none of your business anyway!" With that said, she dumped her lunch in the trash can and stomped off, Sango staggering behind to try and catch up with her fuming best friend.

She stalked into the dance academy. It was a graceful place, yet she was anything but graceful at the moment. "SESSHOMARU!" She shouted.

He was sitting on the elegant floor putting his long silver hair into a high ponytail. "Ah Kagome, your early."

"Why the hell did you do that! You could have just given it to me this afternoon at practice!"

Ah, the shirt. He smirked and gave her a sexy glare. "I do as I please, no questions asked Ms. Higurashi. So if you don't mind, I'd refrain from saying such words in this academy."

She blushed and folded her arms. He walked over to her. "Sorry for shouting." She muttered.

He placed a finger on her chin and lifted it. "Do not worry about it." He pulled away and walked over to the radio. "We're going to have guests today. I have no idea why they're here…all I know is that the head of the academy has recommended it and that it will be cleared up soon."

Kagome wondered why he was telling her this, before she turned around to see the rest of the class behind her. She quickly turned back to stare into Sesshomaru's deep amber eyes. They were practically smiling at her.

She scowled at him and huffed, turning her head in the opposite direction. As if on cue to the teacher's words, a man and a woman walked in the room. Kagome noticed Sesshomaru slightly tense up at their arrival.

The woman had long raven black hair and emotionless dull eyes. The man had long black hair tied in a low ponytail. Sesshomaru nodded to them. "Kikyo, Naraku."

Everyone was looking from Kikyo to Kagome. Kagome stared at her classmates. What the hell was their problem?

"They look almost exactly alike." Someone said. She blushed. They did not! Did they?

Sesshomaru introduced everyone. Kagome noticed Kikyo's eyes linger on her with a slightly hatred look in her eyes. What was her problem?

A woman walked…well rather, ran into the room and up to Sesshomaru. She handed him a piece of paper and stood rigid next to him with a warm smile on her face. Sesshomaru read over the note and his eyes widened slightly. "Everyone, there will be a contest next week. Two couples from each dance academy are to participate for the grand prize. Unknown to anyone as of now."

Sesshomaru looked up at Kagome. "Kagome, being that you are my partner, we will be one of the couples, and Sango and Hojo, you two are excellent dancers as well, you two will be the other couple."

The three nodded. Sesshomaru motioned for Kagome to walk over to him. He smirked at her and she scowled. The guest couple was watching the entire scenario. "Kagome, this is Rin. My coordinator. This contest consists of three dances. The Mambo, the Tango, and the Waltz. Since the Mambo is dedicated to the woman dancer, Rin will take you off to the side everyday for a half an hour to teach you to be ready for the dance next week."

Kagome nodded with a smile. A dance dedicated to the woman huh? This would be fun. Operations seduce Sesshomaru. Work in progress. She made a mental note.

Sesshomaru leaned into her and whispered in her ear. "Stay after class, we have a few things to discuss."

Kagome walked off with Rin as Kikyo and Naraku took their positions on the dance floor. They were their rival couple for the contest. The best of their academy. Well, he and Kagome too were the best of their academy.

Sesshomaru sat in one of the chairs as his students took their places on the floor as they watched the couple dance.

One day. One day and she already loved the Mambo! She would be practicing it with Sesshomaru on Wednesday so she had one more day with Rin. The dance made her feel free. It made her feel like a woman! The turns were flawless, and the moves were seductive. She could tell her body loved the dance as well, the way it responded.

She sat on the floor waiting for Sesshomaru to get rid of their guests. Their dance was really good…nearly perfect. They said barely two words. However, Kikyo lingered talking with Sesshomaru. She watched through the front glass.

Kikyo said something placing her hand on his chest while Sesshomaru slapped her hand away and said something that made Kikyo gasp and back away with an angry look on her face. She turned and stomped off while Sesshomaru turned and caught her stare.

Kagome 'eep'd' and shrank back a bit. Sesshomaru walked in and over to her. "I guess I was going to tell you anway." He sighed.

"You don't have to tell me anything you don't want to." He looked at her with that piercing gaze.

"I know I can trust you, and I haven't told or talked to anyone else." He brought a chair over and sat on it backwards in front of her with his legs spread apart. "Kikyo is my ex." Kagome's eyes widened. "We broke up about five months ago. We became apart of rival academies and once she found out about you…she was pissed."

"What do you mean found out about me?" Kagome asked narrowing her eyes.

"She saw our performance on stage last week and she noticed how close we seemed to be. She thought we were an item."

"Are our bodies really that revealing?" Her eyes widened.

Sesshomaru smirked. "You sure were in that dress." Kagome glared. He chuckled and shrugged it off. "We are their rival couple in the dance competition. Don't let her get to you or distract you."

Kagome looked slightly confused. "Why would she get to me? We're not even the item she suspects us to be."

"Yes, but I didn't deny it to her."

"YOU WHAT!" Kagome sat up from her smug position and looked him dead in the eye. "You mean to tell me…that she thinks we're…dating!"

Sesshomaru only nodded with a calm expression.

"How can you keep a straight face about this!" Kagome suddenly stood.

Sesshomaru calmly stared up at her. "You two don't look alike so you know." Kagome's anger dissipated a bit.

"What?" She blinked.

"Her eyes are dull, yours are a bright ocean color. And when you're mad, they become even brighter." Sesshomaru smirked at her expression.

She blushed. "I did hear someone say that we looked alike when she walked in."

"Well you don't." Sesshomaru stood with a shrug. "You're more feisty." With that said and Kagome's now raged expression, Sesshomaru's mind began to wander. He wondered what her eyes would look like at the peak of arousal. He smirked at the thought and looked her body up and down.

Kagome blushed even redder and crossed her arms in discomfort. "W-what?"

He smirked. "Nothing." With that said, he walked up to her and leaned down to her ear and whispered ever so softly. "See you tomorrow…Kagome." His breath swept across the bottom of her ear and the sensitive skin on her neck. She shivered.

He walked out of the dance room leaving her standing in the middle of the floor dumbfounded. How could he have that effect on her! UGH!

Author Note: Hello everyone! I would like to thank you all for your support and wonderful reviews!

Now…I have something that has been asked quite a few times. A few people have asked for a lemon.
