Two To... Foxtrot: The Wedding
Inuyasha had opted out of being his date for the wedding. After learning they would both be in attendance and that they would both be best men, Sesshomaru had thought it all the more reasonable that they attend together. Apparently, the hanyou hadn't felt the same.
"It'd be weird," Inuyasha had said. "And besides, I'm already taking somebody else. I can't cancel on her; she'd hurt me."
Such was the flimsy excuse he'd received. And Inuyasha hadn't been forthcoming with the details. Sesshomaru had been forced to hound him relentlessly with questions for some days before the hanyou finally admitted that his date was Kagome Higurashi.
It was a name he knew, of course. His father had booked her specifically for the pre-wedding dance lessons because she was, according to all reports, extremely gifted for someone so young. It seemed she had a reputation for turning even the most awkward of people into competent dancers, at the very least.
He had even been somewhat put out after being informed that she had taken some time away from instructing due to an injury. If he was going to suffer through dance lessons, he expected to learn under the one his father deemed the best choice, not some substitute. Patience already thin with the idea, he had almost cancelled his appointment and rescheduled.
That was, of course, until the substitute had coincidentally appeared in the main lobby and introduced himself to the gathered students. After that, Sesshomaru had had no further thoughts of seeing the woman who owned the studio.
And now she was here with Inuyasha at their parents' wedding reeption, while he remained dateless.
"I love this song!" the woman in question abruptly said. Sesshomaru turned his head in time to watch her grip one of the hanyou's hands. "Inuyasha, let's dance!"
"What?" Inuyasha, just about to take a sip of his champagne, paused. "I dunno..."
"Oh, come on," Kagome insisted, plucking the champagne flute right out of Inuyasha's hands and putting it on the buffet table beside them. "It'll be fun!"
She tugged insistently, and the hanyou heaved a sigh as he followed her. But for all his reluctance, Sesshomaru noted, he certainly got into the swing of things quickly. And far too much for the youkai's liking.
They moved across the floor like the professionals they were, perfectly in time and in sync with each other. So much so that Sesshomaru was unsure if this was somehow choreographed or if they just knew each other that well. The possibility of the latter had him frowning into his own glass.
"Oh, just look at them, darling," Izayoi Takahashi - no, Musashi - sighed. The other guests had begun to clear a space for Inuyasha and Kagome on the dance floor; some had stopped dancing altogether in favour of watching.
"They look wonderful together, don't they?" the woman continued, leaning against his father and positively beaming. The bride had changed into a more simple white dress for the reception, but was still eye-catching despite her age. "They make such a wonderful couple, and Kagome's such a sweet girl. I wonder if they plan to get back together..."
Sesshomaru heard no more. Get back together? The ningen woman was the hanyou's ex? Inuyasha had certainly failed to mention that. He had assumed they were friends and colleagues only. From the way they bickered over the phone, Sesshomaru had never expected they'd have such a history. And the majority of their arguments had been about some "damn wolf" the girl had been considering going on a date with.
Had... had the arguments been... jealousy?
If that was the case, what was the hanyou doing with him? Although, admittedly... he hadn't been doing much of anything. That first evening in the dance studio was as close as they'd come to anything, and that had been spectacularly interrupted by the cleaning crew.
Since then, they'd met for drinks over the course of the two weeks before the wedding, but the hanyou had always managed to wiggle away before things could become interesting. At the time, he had simply thought Inuyasha surprisingly shy or reticent. Now, Sesshomaru was wondering if it was all because of this woman.
He narrowed his eyes on her as she and Inuyasha pressed close. With their hips firmly connected, gyrating, and Inuyasha's hands on her waist, she dipped back until the tips of her hair kissed the floor, then slowly came back up. Her arms looped around his neck, and they both grinned.
Inuyasha certainly didn't seem to be reluctant to dance now. Rather, he looked quite happy. Sesshomaru's irritation increased to match.
Kagome spun away from Inuyasha in a flutter of pale silk, then back to him. After a moment of pressing against him, she dipped down almost to the floor and then slowly slid back up the hanyou's leg, full contact; dissatisfied with just one display, the girl spun, dipped and pulled herself back up yet again.
Sesshomaru downed the rest of his glass of champagne - two thirds, at least - in one, long gulp and set it down on the table before he broke the fragile glass. He'd seen enough.
Determinedly, he strode onto the dance floor and approached the two of them. He cleared his throat for their attention, and they slowed as they both turned to face him. Sesshomaru couldn't help but notice the way the girl leaned her head against Inuyasha's.
"May I cut in?" he asked, as he was aware was customary; despite wanting to simply yank Inuyasha away from her, he wouldn't cause such a scene at his father's wedding.
After the briefest of exchanged glances, the couple split apart. The woman turned to him, smiling, and held up her hands for him to take, but Sesshomaru was already turning away from her. Locking eyes with Inuyasha, Sesshomaru slipped a hand around his waist and spun the two of them away from Kagome.
Inuyasha immediately went stiff as a board in his arms. "What the hell are you doing?" the hanyou hissed. "Our parents are watching!" To prove his point, Inuyasha glanced worriedly over at them.
Sesshomaru followed his gaze, but remained calm; neither seemed concerned, but Izayoi was definitely curious as to what they were doing.
"I don't care," the youkai replied, as he turned his gaze back to Inuyasha. "It's better than watching you dance with that woman."
"What?" the hanyou said distractedly, flicking his attention back to the newlyweds.
Sesshomaru reached up and turned Inuyasha's face toward his. "Pay attention, hanyou."
Inuyasha only renewed his struggles. "Let go of me and maybe I will!" Yet again, his eyes sought out their parents as he pulled his head free.
For the sake of getting a decent response from Inuyasha, Sesshomaru removed his arm from around his waist and instead switched to a grip on the hanyou's wrist. Inuyasha glared at it.
"Would you please let go of me? What the hell are our parents gonna think?"
Suddenly, it clicked for Sesshomaru. "You don't want your mother to know you're interested in men."
"No!" the hanyou snapped. "No, it's not that. I just haven't told her yet, and her wedding really ain't the right time. So keep your damn voice down and let go of me!"
An idea formed instantly, and Sesshomaru almost smiled. Instead of letting go, he tightened his grip and started across the floor again. "Follow me," he said, ignoring the hanyou's hissed protests and subtle struggles. He wasn't the only one unwilling to cause a scene.
He led Inuyasha out of the reception hall and into the deserted hallway. There, he spun the hanyou around and pushed his back up against a wall, blocking his escape with an arm on either side of him.
"What the fuck's wrong with you today?" Inuyasha demanded, pushing at one of his arms. Sesshomaru didn't move an inch.
"That woman," he said instead. "Kagome. I want you to forget about her."
Inuyasha gaped at him. "What the hell are you talking about? She's one of my oldest friends. I've only known you for two weeks, asshole. Like hell I'm gonna forget about her just because --"
"A friend is fine," the older youkai interrupted. "Yet it's clear she means more to you. This, I want you to forget."
Inuyasha's mouth worked silently for a moment. "You think... Oh, hell, no. We're not like that."
"You were."
"Back in high school, yeah. And for a bit after. But it was just kid stuff, you know? We thought it was more than that, but I guess not. We work as friends, nothin' else."
Sesshomaru relaxed. He already knew the hanyou was not a gifted liar; if he appeared to be telling the truth, then he was. Looking back at their dancing now, he could view it simply as two colleagues showing off their skills. With his displeasure gone, he could admire the way Inuyasha moved, the skill and grace, and the lust he'd ignored before came bubbling up to the surface.
He forced himself to focus when he realised Inuyasha was speaking again.
"...getting jealous already? Shit, what's up with that? We haven't even slept together yet."
"Something I plan to rectify," the youkai murmured. "Tonight."
Inuyasha stared. "Wait, no, I didn't mean..."
"I'll make you a deal, Inuyasha. You come to my hotel room tonight and I'll keep quiet around your mother."
It took Inuyasha a moment to realise what he meant. Then he puffed up indignantly. "You bastard, that's blackmail!"
"I prefer to call it progress," Sesshomaru replied. "Left to your own devices, who knows how long it would take you to finally give in to temptation. I wonder if you are a virgin."
Inuyasha flushed brightly and Sesshomaru deduced he was right on the money. Interesting.
"Like hell I am!" the hanyou blustered in protest. "And I'm still not coming to --"
Sesshomaru silenced him with a kiss, taking advantage of Inuyasha's open mouth to slide his tongue in and taste every inch until the hanyou stopped pushing him away and started pulling him closer, moaning. He could feel Inuyasha's interest against his own. He only reluctantly pulled back when oxygen became a necessity.
"My room," he repeated. "Tonight. It'll be more than worth the wait."

Oh, look. A sequel.
This is for ardentes, who commented and wanted me to write a drabble about Sesshomaru getting all jealous from watching Inuyasha dance. A day or two later... we have this. xD I hope you like it, ardentes. ^^
