Hot Attraction
The Dirty Minded
He didn't think about what he was going to do. He didn't time it. All he had to do was act. Act on his impulse. And right now his impulse was telling him to save the girl that was about to be hit by the truck.
He watched as the girl heard him calling out her name and she turned. Her beautiful orbs widened and she screamed. He ran and dove after her. Body connected with body as the couple fell to the ground in a heap just barely missing the truck.
Lights flashed and car horns blared. Kagome had her eyes shut tightly. Was it over? Was she dead? She slowly opened her eyes to look up at her savior. "Sesshomaru…" She breathed. He looked at her and smirked. How did he get there so fast?
"Dancing pays off." With that said, he lifted himself off of her and held out his hand to help her up off the ground. She gladly took it and stood.
"Thank you for saving me." Kagome muttered with a small smile.
"No problem."
Kikyo stood off in a distance glaring at the couple. Damn Sesshomaru and his excellent timing. With Kagome out of the way, she and Naraku were a shoe in to win the competition and then they would get the grand prize of picking any partner they wished for the state championships. Sesshomaru would have had no choice but to have been hers again.
Sesshomaru looked at Kagome. "Are you alright?"
Kagome smiled softly. "I'm fine. I was going to ask you to a bite to eat, but…" She was silenced with a finger placed gently over her lush rose colored lips.
"That sounds like a plan."
She stretched. It had been a long day. Her eyes snapped open when she felt a hand slowly creeping up her thigh. "EEK!" She screeched and turned around punching the offender in the face. "Miroku!"
The violet eyed man grinned sheepishly. "Sorry Sango…your body is just so perfect, I couldn't resist."
Sango rolled her eyes. She and Miroku had been going to the same gym every Saturday since she could remember. Today was another one of those days. They would spend hours working out and then go out for dinner together later on in the afternoon followed by dancing at the club. They were getting a lot closer to one another. Sango sat down and softly grunted. It felt so good to rest. She closed her eyes and leaned back.
"Sesshomaru…I've never done this before." Sango's eyes snapped open.
"Don't worry Kagome. I'll walk you through it." Was that…?
"What was that?" Sango asked turning to Miroku who was wondering the same thing. They turned to where the voices where coming from. A room at the back of the gym. All the curtains were closed. What was going on in there?
Sango stood up. "How am I supposed to hold it?" Came the soft voice of a woman.
"Here, let me show you."
Miroku looked at Sango as they neared the room. The door was locked. "Is that Kagome and Sesshomaru?" He asked trying to hear more of the couples conversation.
"It's so big! How is that supposed to fit with this?"
A chuckle. "You'll understand once you get into the rhythm."
Sango's eyes widened. She couldn't believe that Sesshomaru and Kagome would be doing that in a gym! "No that can't be them." Miroku said answering his own question.
Sango glared at him. "How many other people do you know named Kagome and Sesshomaru?" Miroku sweat dropped.
"Now, a little more to the left and…" They heard Sesshomaru moan softly. "ah, there you go."
A giggle was heard. "I did it."
"Now do it again the same way I showed you before."
"Alright." A crash was heard. "Oops…oh Sesshomaru, I'm so sorry!" By this time, Sango and Miroku were up against the door with their ears pressed to the wood listening intently to the two.
"Don't worry about it."
"Are you alright?"
"I'm fine, but I think we're done for today. My body can't take much more."
Miroku and Sango gasped as the door gave way and fell through.
Fifteen Minutes ago
"Sesshomaru…I've never done this before." Kagome was nervous. She'd never played tennis before in her life. She saw it once on TV, but that was about it.
Sesshomaru smirked. "Don't worry Kagome. I'll walk you through it."
Kagome clutched her racket. "How am I supposed to hold it?"
"Here, let me show you." Sesshomaru walked up behind Kagome and wrapped his arms around hers moving her body and arms in the right position. He liked the feel of her against him. She got that down, now what was she supposed to hit?
"It's so big! How is that supposed to fit with this?" She had never seen a tennis ball before. How was she supposed to hit something that looked that heavy?
"You'll understand once you get into the rhythm."
"Now, a little more to the left and…" Sesshomaru moaned softly as he shifted. "ah, there you go."
Kagome giggled as she hit the ball and it hit the wall bouncing off and coming back to her and Sesshomaru. "I did it."
"Now do it again the same way I showed you before."
"Alright." Kagome got in to position again and threw the ball in the air and hit it. She watched it hit the wall fast and once it collided it created more friction causing it to hit something on the wall behind them. Where was Sesshomaru? "Oops…oh Sesshomaru, I'm so sorry!" She saw Sesshomaru sitting on the ground holding his chin. She had hit him with the racket.
"Don't worry about it."
"Are you alright?" She asked bending down to help him up.
"I'm fine, but I think we're done for today. My body can't take much more." They heard a crash and turned to see the door to the tennis room on the ground with a man and a woman on top.
"Sango? Miroku?" Kagome asked getting up on her feet pulling Sesshomaru with her as best she could. "What the hell are you two doing?"
The couple laughed nervously as they struggled to stand. "Well you see, we heard you two talking and um…well you seemed a little busy."
Kagome shrieked. "You PERVERT!" She stalked out the door and pointed to the sign above the now demolished entry. "You see the sign? It says tennis which is what we were playing! Sesshomaru was teaching me."
Sango stood abruptly. "Right." Sango smiled grabbing Miroku. "I apologize for him. You know how he can be." She laughed nervously and waved goodbye as they got out the door. "Have fun Kagome."
Kagome sighed and walked back over to Sesshomaru. "Sorry about that." The now forming bruise on his chin caught Kagome's eye. "Here…let me take a look at that." Sesshomaru went to move away when Kagome's hand came closer to his face. She scowled. "Calm down."
Sesshomaru sighed and let her look at him. He watched her eyes as she kept her gaze on his chin. Her soft small hands roamed over the forming bruise and she gave a look of disdain. He grabbed her wrist.
"It's fine Kagome. It will heal in no time. It's not your fault." Kagome gave him a smile.
"If you insist."
Sesshomaru smirked. "Shall we go get cleaned up then and go out to the club?" Kagome nodded. "Well, why don't you accompany me to the showers then?"
"No way you pervert!" Kagome said with a laugh.
That upcoming Monday Kagome and Sango were the first ones waiting for the lessons to start. Sesshomaru was talking with a few of his fathers clients.
Kagome smirked and turned to Sango. "So my friend…what were you and Miroku really doing at the gym?"
Sango blushed. "Nothing like that!"
Kagome laughed. "Sure." Sango pouted. The duo had been best friends since they were in diapers. Kagome had saved Sango from some little bullies that decided they liked picking on little girls. She hated brats like that. She looked over at her best friend. They had always looked out for each other. She couldn't ask for anyone better.
Sesshomaru walked in to see the entire class on time. "Well everyone. Nice to see all of you again." The class smiled and greeted him.
"Good afternoon Mr. Tashio." Everyone said. Except Kagome however, who called him by his first name.
"Alright class, we have some great news. Kagome and I have passed the qualifying rounds. Sango and Hojo have also, but to a different status." Everyone clapped.
"Now Kagome's fine talents and her wonderful display on stage…" Kagome's eyes widened as he looked at her with a smug smirk referring to their little charade. Kagome's widened eyes turned into a glare.
"Bite me." She said aloud turning away from him in a huff.
Sesshomaru cut his speech and looked over at the ill-ridden girl. He smirked once he registered what she said. "I can't Kagome, there are people around, shall we go get a room?"
She blushed five different shades of red. "I…" Sango giggled. The class was slightly confused but laughed anyway.
This was going to be a long class.
Kagome sighed as she heard a knock on the door. "Who is it?"
No answer.
Who would be bothering her at this time of night? She got up and walked over to the door. Once she opened it, she gasped upon seeing the most unexpected person at her door.
"Hello Kagome."
Kagome glared. "What do you want Kikyo? Come to try and kill me again?"
Kikyo laughed. "I only want to talk to you, you stubborn girl."
Kagome sneered. "Fine. You have five minutes." Kagome moved out of the way and let Kikyo in. "Now what do you want?"
"I came to talk to you about Sesshomaru. You see…I want him back, and you seem to be the only thing in my way."
"And?" Kagome looked bored.
"I know what the grand prize of the competition is Kagome."
Her interest was spiked. "That would be?"
"The choice of any dance partner you want for the state championships." Kikyo smirked. "And as you know, if my and Naraku win, we both get what we want. You'll be forced to work with that man, and I'll have Sesshomaru all to myself."
Kagome silently gasped. "Why would this affect me?" She turned and glared once again in Kikyo's direction.
"Sesshomaru knows what he wants Kagome. And let me assure you…you're not what he wants. All he wants is a good partner to win with. That's all you are."
Kagome scoffed. "Get out Kikyo. Now."
"Fine, but you may want to heed to my words."
Once Kikyo had left Kagome looked outside from the top of her apartment. Was what she said true? Was that all that Sesshomaru wanted from her? Maybe she should just quit the dance life…after all…there was no one to share the passion with if Sesshomaru was only using her.
She sighed. What was she going to do?
