InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Strike a Pose ❯ Sesshoumaru is Sexy? ( Chapter 7 )

Chapter seven: Sesshoumaru is sexy?

Sesshoumaru drummed his fingers on the coffee table in front of him whilst he tried to simultaneously ignore and glare at the provocative assistant. She was a conundrum in herself, existing as an assistant but unable to type due to artificially elongated talons. He was sat on a low slung couch behind the coffee table on top of which was a mug of unwanted rapidly cooling coffee that the assistant had laden him with. She had told him her name but he didn't want to remember.

The office, he could admit, was tastefully and expensively decorated. This was not appeasing Sesshoumaru any, he was being forced to pay off a huge debt by becoming a model and yet this old fool of a friend of his father's was working in luxury.

The office door opened and Sesshoumaru fought to repress his urge to sigh in relief. He really didn't want to subject himself to anymore of this peculiar torture of hapless flirting.

“Sesshoumaru” the older Yokai boomed enthusiastically

“Totosai” Sesshoumaru sounded bored as ever and Totosai rolled his eyes.

“Cold as ever I see” he commented before grinned wickedly at his assistant and ushering Sesshoumaru inside. The two Yokai settled at either side of the mahogany desk and though Totosai was the senior and the owner of the company Sesshoumaru exuded an aura that screamed `I'm in charge!'”

“So how can I help you?” Totosai asked

“You were in charge of fathers will once he passed?” Sesshoumaru asked

“That is correct” Totosai normally a jovial old coot had been considerably sobered by Sesshoumaru's frostiness and was acting accordingly.

“Then you are aware of our indenture to a Higurashi Megumi-san?” he interrogated

Totosai closed his eyes and sighed, he wasn't quite ready to answer this question yet.

“Yes” he answered hesitantly

“What is it Totosai” Sesshoumaru growled dangerously

“The debt your father left behind was some deal of money” Totosai sighed “and before the day I opened his will I had never even heard of Higurashi Megumi-san, even with knowing your father for the number of years that I did”

“So she was mentioned in the will?” Sesshoumaru asked

“It was his express desire that she be contacted” Totosai nodded “and when she offered the solution to your father's financial dilemma you and your brother were handed over without preamble”

“Interesting” Sesshoumaru pondered

****

“Turn the TV on” Kagome moaned as she flopped down onto the sofa next to the Inu Yokai who was attempting to do his Math homework in the living room due to the fact his idiot half brother was currently whooping whilst playing some dumb video game and neglecting his own ever growing pile of homework.

“You do it” he snapped as she caused his text book to slid off his lap due to her movements “and sit somewhere else, you're annoying me”

She said nothing as she watched as his hand sped across the pad of paper answering mind boggling math questions with an ease that made her envious. Something seemed to click in her brain and she ran upstairs.

He listened as her feet pitter-pattered across the wooden landing floor upstairs. He heard her bedroom door be shoved bluntly out of the way and then it appeared she dumped the contents of a chest or something on the floor before running back across the landing and sliding down the banister and dashing into the room again. A little breathless.

He gazed down at the item she had retrieved from her room and noticed that it was a maths book. “Ne, moon man, help me?”

“No”

“Why?” she whined jumping onto the same sofa as him again and crossing her legs “Onegai, I'll owe you forever”

“No” he grouched attempting to block her out, but to no avail

“Come on moon man, it won't hurt!”

“I have my own homework” he said

“You've nearly finished” she protested

“Leave me”

“ONEGAI!” she yelled and he fought back the urge to cover his ears. He turned to yell at her only to pause in shock as he realised she was barely an inch away from his face glaring at him and trying to will him into complying.

He gazed into her fiery blue eyes and they locked onto each other in a silent battle of wills.

It lasted an eternity.

Before some idiot collapsed over sideways due to the fact she had absentmindedly been holding her breath whilst having the staring competition.

He sighed and ran a hand over his face “I'll help”

“Wise decision,” she smirked “if you hadn't agreed I was going to force feed it to you and tell the teacher my dog ate it”

He threw a pillow at her. She dodged the cushiony missile with ease but overestimated her balance and fell from the sofa onto the floor. He rolled his eyes.

Inuyasha came down stairs purely to get something to drink before returning to his game but he spotted something that sort of stopped him.

Kikyo's ass.

Or more specifically Kikyo crouched down on all fours with her ass in the air with Rin sat next to her doing the same thing but being not in the least bit tempting. He swallowed hard and brought his traitorous thoughts away from Kikyo and knelt down on her other side.

They were both staring through the banister at the living room where Sesshoumaru was patiently teaching Kagome math.

“Is he actually teaching her?” Inuyasha had to lean in to speak to Kikyo in her ear VERY quietly due to his brothers VERY good hearing. Kikyo nearly jumped out of her skin as she only just realised the Inu Hanyou was beside her.

She nodded and put a finger to her lips as Rin next to her mimicked the action. He rolled his eyes and started to consider the implications if his brother was to catch him spying on him. He was about to get up when Kikyo leant over to say something to him.

She noticed he was leaving and nearly toppled over due to the fact she had been relying on him being there to lean on whilst she talked.

Her grabbed her elbow and helped her steady herself but her flailing left arm hit Rin in the head and she let out a yelp of shock.

Sesshoumaru looked up at the sound of the yelp and eyeballed the now assembled group of spectators. He growled in warning whilst Kagome looked at them in confusion.

“What's with the world's worst ninja's?” she asked

“Speak coherently” Sesshoumaru advised

“Guess what I've got!” Megumi crashed into the apartment like a whirling dervish and ran across to her daughter and Sesshoumaru as the others came down the stairs to see her. The spies were grateful for her intervention, she had inadvertently spared their lives from the wrath of Sesshoumaru.

Sesshoumaru regarded Megumi carefully as they all went to greet her, he still had no idea of how she was connected to his father and not knowing things irritated him.

“Is it ice cream?” Rin asked excitedly

“No not ice cream” Megumi laughed

“Chocolate?” she enquired

“No, let me tell you” Megumi smiled at the young girl

“You need to learn to stop asking Rin to `guess what'” Kikyo pointed out

“Shhh” Megumi chastised “I was excited. Anyway I have the proof ads that Sesshoumaru worked on!”

She brought a file from her huge bag and pulled an A3 sized poster out with one of the shots of Sesshoumaru across it looking... well... seductive. There really was no other word for it.

Sesshoumaru was torn between being mortified at that emotion being caught by camera and being pleased because Kagome was now blushing. He settled on mortified as Inuyasha started to practically roll around on the floor laughing.

“I didn't know you had it in you” Kikyo said fighting to keep a straight face before dissolving into giggles like Inuyasha before her.

Sesshoumaru growled at them and stalked out of the room and onto the balcony that joined outside the living room window.

“They were only teasing” Kagome's voice came to him as her scent clouded his senses.

“Hn”

“Inuyasha has to do one tomorrow” she said as she came to lean on the railing next to him her hair was not held back and as such it fluttered in the harsh breeze like a wild animal trying to escape. Stray strands whipped him in the face but he made no bid to move away, her closeness and the steady beating of her heart were calming.

“Hn”

“Are you okay with it?” she asked tentatively

“You seemed to like it” he said slyly and he smiled as the heat from her blush graced his senses.

“Shut up” she muttered grouchily. She had been trying to wind him down, but now she was overcome with the urge to wind him back up. “It's going to be on that billboard!” she pointed at the huge billboard across from their building.

He growled in response and she smirked.

“Calming down Sesshoumaru didn't go well I take it?” Kikyo enquired as her sister flopped onto the sofa next to Rin whilst Sesshoumaru stalked upstairs with a bark to inform everyone he was going in the shower.

“He pushed my buttons and I got pissed” she shrugged

“Shouldn't say a swear” Rin told her as she continued to plait her own hair into two pigtails.

“Gomen, Rin-chan” Kagome apologised to the younger girl

“You seem to antagonise each other in equal amounts” Kikyo mused as she flicked through Kagome's homework idly “This all seems to be done anyway”

“Yeah” Kagome smiled at the thought of no math detention for once “he's a good tutor I suppose”

“I wouldn't trust that” Inuyasha emerged from the kitchen where he and Rin had been digging for ice cream and had retrieved a tub of rocky road.

“What do you mean?” Kikyo asked in surprise

“He probably taught you wrong on purpose just to spite you” he told Kagome

“Paranoid much?” Kagome asked rolling her eyes and picking up her books “If you'll excuse me I've still got English and Geography homework leering at me from the corner of my room”

“I don't know why you bother” Inuyasha said as he Kikyo and Rin dug into the ice cream

“Because unlike you detention is not something I look forward to” she retorted at the Inu Hanyou before running up the stairs two at a time.

And straight into a towel wearing Inu Yokai.

She sort of bounced off the toned chest of Sesshoumaru and nearly fell over backwards.

Nearly.

Strong arms reached out with blinding speed to stop her, but all she succeeded in doing was pulling the owner of said arms over with her.

She looked up at Sesshoumaru who looked down at her. Blue met gold.

What an interesting position. His beast whispered.

He looked down at them and realised he was holding himself on top of her with her hands braced against his chest. The feel of her body beneath his was incredibly tempting. The heat she gave off was intoxicating and once again he nuzzled her neck to breath in her irresistible scent.

“Sesshoumaru!” she whimpered

Reality check.

He snapped out his daze and so fast she didn't even see it happen he was off her and stood two metres away glaring at her.

It was enough to make her wonder if she had just imagined the whole nuzzling thing. After all what person nuzzles someone and then three minutes later looks at them like they killed their first born?

Sesshoumaru that's who. Bastard.
