Okay, I'm listening to my Norah Jones and this idea came. I was going to make it a KurKag but I remember someone out there requesting a Toshiro Hitsugaya x Kagome one-shot and here it is!
Summary: He had spent but a few months in the human world, and everyone decides to go see a local band. Poor Toshiro goes, expecting to have a bad time and ends up having the time of his life.
Pairing: Toshiro Hitsugaya x Kagome Higurashi
Disclaimer: Inuyasha, Bleach and the song 'Turn Me On' belong to Rumiko Takahashi, Tite Kubo and Norah Jones respectively.
Turn Me On
Toshiro was having a bad night. Ichigo, Chad and Renji had decided that since the girls were having a girl's night, that they would go to see a local band perform. He, unfortunately, was being dragged along. He sat down at their table with a scowl. "Why do I have to be here?"
"Because we said so." Renji replied. "We all needed a good night out and the band sounded good."
Ichigo nodded. "Yeah, I've heard that they're a little jazzy, but the lead singer is gorgeous."
Toshiro rolled his eyes. "It always comes down to girls with you doesn't it Kurosaki?"
The lights dimmed and a spotlight flicked on over the stage where the band was performing. "Alright, tonight for your listening pleasure, we have the Penguins." The owner said.
A woman came onto the stage. She was dressed in a pair of faded jeans and a blue tee short. Her raven hair was twin braided and her bangs pushed to the side. She smiled softly at the audience and placed her hands delicately on the microphone stand. "Thank you all for coming to hear us play. I am Kagome and I will be the one delighting your senses tonight. I'd like to kick it off with a favourite of mine."
The black haired man at the piano began to play a soft tune and Kagome began to sing.
"Like a flower, waiting to bloom.
Like a light bulb in a dark room.
I'm just sittin' here waiting for you,
to come on home and turn me on."
Toshiro watched as her eyes drifted shut and she swayed softly. Her hands caressed the microphone stand as she continued singing.
"Like the desert waiting for the rain.
Like a school kid waiting for the spring.
I'm just sitting here waiting for you,
to come on home and turn me on."
Her voice became a little more powerful as she frowned. Opening her eyes, Toshiro could have sworn she was looking at him.
"My poor heart.
It's been so dark.
Since you've been gone.
After all you're the one who turns me off;
you're the only one who can turn me back on."
Scratch that, she was definitely looking at him. Her hips swayed a little more and Toshiro could feel his eyes take in her every move. The way her long fingers slid across the microphone was driving him crazy.
"My Hi-fi is waiting for a new tune.
My glass is waiting for some fresh ice cubes.
I'm just sitting here waiting for you,
to come on home and turn me on.
Turn me on."
Winking at the white haired boy with the stunning turquoise eyes, Kagome smiled as the song came to a close and the crowd began to applaud. "Thank you all so much! I'd like to give you all a treat tonight. This next number is called Shoot the Moon."

After the performance, Kagome thanked the audience and went backstage to the talent room to freshen up before the band went to the bar to celebrate. Changing into a cute denim skirt and a pink tank top, Kagome unbraided her hair and told the other band members where she would be. Heading straight to the bar, she sat down and ordered herself a glass of red wine.
"Excuse me."
Kagome turned around and saw a group of boys, none of which looked older than her own eighteen. She instantly smiled as she recognized the one from earlier. "Yes? Can I help you with something?"
Ichigo grinned at her. "I loved your performance. You really know how to command an audience."
Kagome smiled and offered him the seat beside her. "Thank you very much. I love to sing."
"You have a very powerful voice." Toshiro said quietly. "It's very beautiful."
"Thank you very much." Kagome replied. "Would you all like to join me for a drink while I wait for my band mates?"
The four obliged and began to talk animatedly about everything and nothing.
XOX
It was past one on the morning and the boys decided that they had best be on their way. Kagome snagged Toshiro's arm before her left.
He looked at her questioningly, silently asking for an answer.
She began to worry her bottom lip before smiling at him. "We're playing again next week. I'd love it if you could come and watch."
He blushed slightly and nodded. "I'd like that. Bye Kagome."
"Bye Toshiro." Kagome said as he left.
Walking to catch up with his friends, Toshiro couldn't help the smile that formed.
The night had definitely gone better than he expected.
