Truth or Dare
Loitering in the hallway and waiting to ambush his prey, Inuyasha contemplated the best way to skin a wolf. He wanted the mangy fleabag to really suffer for this; it was only fair, after what Inuyasha was about to go through.
He and the wolf had known each other since before they could remember, and had been in competition since they'd first learned the phrase "I win!" Contests of strength, bravery, speed... you name it, they tried to outdo each other in it. And in all the years they'd been at it, there had never been a clear, undeniable champion, and so it carried on.
For the last six months or so, it had been an unending round of truth or dare (mostly just dare in their case), a double-layered competition that stopped it feeling like they were playing some kiddie game. Not only did they have to have the balls to complete each challenge or face a forfeit and defeat, but they also had to think up challenging and creative dares.
It had started off simply enough, daring each other to hide their classmates' belongings or pass along fake confessions of love and other such easy things, but had escalated rapidly to the scale of (as Koga had dared him a couple weeks ago) snapping pictures of a female teacher's underwear on their phones and the like.
He'd kept up pretty well with the wolf... until now. Koga had finally slammed him with a dare that was impossible... or would be, at least, if Koga had thought it through enough to not leave him any wiggle room. He was smarter than the ookami gave him credit for, and with his pride on the line, he wasn't above using dirty and underhanded tricks. Whatever it took to win.
The target of his current dare emerged from the library (a place Inuyasha never set foot in willingly) and the hanyou breathed a sigh of relief. It was after school, so the chances of them being seen together were slim, but he didn't want this spoiled by anything or he had no idea what he'd do.
Sesshomaru, Mr. Popular and resident heart throb of their high school, looked both surprised and displeased to see him. Neither of which surprised or displeased Inuyasha. He held up a hand as Sesshomaru's eyes narrowed and his nose started to climb into the air.
"Now, look, I know you hate me and I don't actually think you're such hot shit yourself, but before you start telling me I offend you with my very presence or have no right to breathe the same air as you or whatever, hear me out," Inuyasha said before the older youkai could open his mouth. "I have a proposition for you that you might just like."
A thin eyebrow arched. "And what would that be?"
Inuyasha shook his head. "Not here. We need to talk privately."
He waited a beat to make sure Sesshomaru was going to follow him, then quickly led him along the hall and around a few corners until he found an unlocked and empty classroom. He shut the door behind Sesshomaru and leaned against it while the inuyoukai watched him expectantly.
"Now, I guarantee you're gonna hate the first part of this as much as I do, but you gotta hear me out, all right?"
"That makes me less willing to stay and listen to anything, hanyou."
Inuyasha shrugged. "Truth's the truth. Now gimme your word."
"I will not. But I will admit to being curious as to what sort of proposition you, of all people, could have for me, and so I'll stay for as long as that interest remains."
Inuyasha bit the inside of his mouth to keep from yelling. He knew it was the best he was going to get.
"Fine," he bit out. "Be a jerk about it." He took a deep breath. "All right, I'm just gonna say this quickly. I need you to kiss me. Not here. Tomorrow. Where people can see it."
Oh, God, just thinking about it gave him the creeps.
This was the dare Koga had given him. A kiss from his hated enemy, Sesshomaru. And not just to risk his life stealing said kiss himself, oh no. Koga's dare had stated clearly that he had to get Sesshomaru to kiss him.
Fortunately, the rules hadn't included how, exactly, he was supposed to go about it, which left him with the leeway to strike up a bargain rather than wig himself out making nice with an asshole.
He'd have felt pretty good about his genius if he didn't feel like he was about to sign his own death warrant.
Sesshomaru stared at him for a full sixteen seconds. He knew, because he counted them while he waited for the decision that would let him win this round of his battle with Koga or destroy his chances to win the war. If he messed this up and Sesshomaru didn't agree to kiss him, there would be absolutely zero chance of getting one any other way. He'd be royally screwed.
"You're pathetic," Sesshomaru finally sneered. "The insipid, simpering girls that float around this school have more subtlety than you, half-breed. Now remove yourself from the door or I will knock you down."
Inuyasha blinked.
Wait. What? Did he think...? Did he actually think...?
"Hold up a damn minute." The hanyou boldly put a hand on Sesshomaru's chest and pushed him back away from the door. "You think I want to do this? You think I even want to be in the same room as you? Pull your head out of your ass, you arrogant fucktard. It's a damn dare, and I'm gonna win it, whatever it costs me."
"A dare?" Sesshomaru scoffed. "You would go this far over a child's game? You are pathetic. And I am still leaving."
"Look, asshole, there's a hell of a lot more riding on this than you realise. I'm not gonna waste my time trying to explain it to someone who doesn't even care, so just shut up and listen. I need you to do this, so you're gonna do it." He steeled himself. "But I didn't come here expecting you to do it for free."
"What could you possibly offer that would make me even consider this?"
This was where it got tricky. Damn right Sesshomaru wouldn't do this for free, but there wasn't a lot he would do it for, either. What Inuyasha planned would shift the balance of power firmly over to Sesshomaru, but it was a sacrifice he had to make...
"I'll owe you one," he said flatly. "A debt with no expiration date. You can lord it over me for as long as you want. Call it in for whatever you want. I'll do whatever." He folded his arms over his chest. "And I'll leave you alone. That should make both of us happy."
He could see Sesshomaru considering it. That ripple of interest that ran over his face, quickly smothered. He knew the bastard got off on having power over other people.
"Just a kiss?" Sesshomaru said at length, and Inuyasha breathed a sigh of relief. The deal was pretty much done.
"Just a kiss," he agreed. "Gotta look convincing, though."
Sesshomaru nodded. "Tomorrow, then."
When Sesshomaru was gone, Inuyasha let out a long, slow breath. However sweet his victory would be, however satisfying he imagined the look on Koga's face to be, he was still going to have to kiss Sesshomaru to get it. He honestly couldn't think of anything he'd rather do less.
Tomorrow was gonna royally suck.

"What's wrong, mutt face?" Koga grinned. "Lookin' a little down in the dumps over there. Finally realising you ain't got a hope in hell of winning this time?"
Inuyasha glared at him over his lunch. Hell, no, that wasn't the reason. Knowing he was going to win had him feeling pretty damn crappy, actually. He supposed situations like this were why the phrase "damned if you do, damned if you don't" had been invented.
He'd spent all night thinking about what he'd done. As a result, he hadn't gotten any sleep and felt like shit. He didn't even have much of an appetite. He was seriously going to kiss Sesshomaru. Today. And not only was he going along with it, but he'd planned it. Things didn't get much more fucked up than that.
He'd thought about backing out of it. Thought that maybe, just maybe, he'd rather put up with Koga gloating for weeks, maybe even months about his victory than chance being stuck for all eternity with the memory of kissing Sesshomaru. But if he did, that would give the youkai something else to hang over his head. And it would mean he was gonna chicken out on two different people.
No way his pride was going to take that. Not even if sucking it up put a lump of lead in his belly.
"You really don't think I can do this, do you?"
"Inuyasha, maybe you should just give up on this one," said Miroku, his other "friend" - pervert and liar extraordinaire, but he occasionally came through with good advice when it was needed. Inuyasha supposed he was trying to give some now. "I don't think it's possible for anyone to win that bet."
Koga laughed loudly and obnoxiously. "That's right, mutt. Get ready to kiss - my - ass!" He accentuated each word with a wiggle of his hips and a flick of his tail.
Inuyasha planted his foot right under that tail and shoved as hard as he could. "Bite me," he growled. "I'm not gonna lose. So you should be the one getting ready to pucker up, fleabag."
Come on, egg me on, Inuyasha thought. There wasn't much chance of him going over to Sesshomaru on his own without it.
Koga bounced back up ready to brawl, but Miroku subtly shifting between them stopped the two youkai ending up rolling around on the cafeteria floor. It had happened before.
"Oh, yeah? Don't see you doing anything about it. You haven't even talked to him yet. What, you plan to wait it out until I get bored and move onto something else? Not happening, asshole."
"You want me to go over there and do this right now?" he asked, standing up. Good, he had a reason to go now. He couldn't back down from a challenge. "You wanna lose that badly, Koga?"
"I wanna see you fall flat on your face, is what I wanna see."
"Don't come cryin' to me when you lose."
With that, the hanyou turned and stalked after Sesshomaru, who was heading out of the cafeteria, with Miroku and Koga in pursuit. Every step he took felt leaden, but he pressed on determinedly nonetheless.
He let Sesshomaru get a good distance away from the cafeteria. The halls were filling more the further they went, filling the requirement of it being a very public act, but he couldn't let it go on for too long or Koga would start bitching again.
Judging it about time, Inuyasha reluctantly broke into a jog, slowing when he could walk in time with Sesshomaru.
The older youkai glanced at him. "I'd begun to wonder if you planned to back out."
"Looking at your ugly face makes me want to," Inuyasha growled, defensive because he had thought about it. "But I'm winning this dare."
Sesshomaru seemed almost amused. "Very well. You plan to do it here, then?"
Inuyasha shrugged jerkily. "Good a place as any."
"I suppose."
Both inuyoukai stopped. Inuyasha suddenly became keenly aware of the fact that people were staring at them. Why? They hadn't even done anything yet, damn it.
Oh, yeah. That was it. Usually they didn't pass each other without some sort of insult, or at least a glare. This quiet talking, no shouts or punches thrown, must have seemed downright strange.
"Well, then. Shall we?" Sesshomaru asked.
Inuyasha's attention was brought back to the other youkai just in time to see him leaning in. Shit. It was really going to happen and he'd signed up for this. Whether he wanted to or not, there was no turning back now.
Their mouths met with lips still parted. He felt a hand touch his cheek briefly before sliding into the thick waves of his hair and couldn't help but twitch. He was aware he said to make this look convincing... but wasn't this going a bit damn far?
Just as he was about to pull back, he felt something slick brush against his lower lip. He only had time for the startling realisation that it was Sesshomaru's tongue before he felt a physical jolt when it slid against his own. He felt Sesshomaru's hand spasm in his hair and knew he felt it, too.
They parted just far enough to look each other in the eyes for a long, silent moment.
Sesshomaru's hand tightened in his hair and he crushed their mouths back together. Dazed, he didn't realise he was moving until something solid hit his back. He gripped Sesshomaru's arms tightly, helpless as heat pooled in his stomach.
Dimly, in the back of his mind, he could feel something panicking. He knew something was very, very wrong with this. But his thoughts were syrupy, as slow and languid as the way their tongues tangled together, and he couldn't get hold of it. Then even that thought was scattered as something firm pushed between his legs until it pressed against his groin, dragging a strangled groan out of him.
The sound seemed to snap Sesshomaru out of it and the hanyou found himself released. Leaning against the wall, panting, with awareness rushing back in, he was keenly aware of Sesshomaru's leg pulling out from between his. He flushed and averted his eyes.
And that was when he realised they had a substantial audience. He could see their mouths moving, but couldn't hear what was being said over the pounding of his own pulse. However, their shock was clear even without the audio.
Koga and Miroku looked the most surprised. Inuyasha picked them out of the crowd easily, staring at them staring at him with huge eyes in pale faces, mouths agape. He might have found it funny if he wasn't starting to rapidly approach hysteria.
He had to explain. Now. He had to straighten this out before his entire life went to hell.
"I --"
He got no further before Sesshomaru grabbed his wrist and started dragging him along, clearing a path through the crowd by sheer power of his glare alone, students scrambling out of his way as they might an elephant stampede.
"Hey!" Inuyasha tried to protest, but Sesshomaru merely silenced him with the same look, and the hanyou was too shocked and freaked out to resist. He pulled Inuyasha all the way into an empty classroom. He winced as he realised it was the same classroom they'd been in yesterday.
Once again, he found himself leaning against the door, though this time in preparation to flee, not trying to prevent it. "What the hell just happened?" he finally asked after a few moments of deafening silence.
Sesshomaru turned to look at him. "A kiss, obviously."
"The hell it was! That wasn't a kiss. That was --" Intense. Instant hard-on. Seriously fucked up. "That wasn't just a kiss."
"It was certainly unexpected. But not regrettable."
Inuyasha's eyes bugged a little. Not regrettable? What the hell? Had Sesshomaru been into that? Then did that mean... they were somehow into each other? And what the hell did that mean? Was it some psycho-babble bullshit about how all the hating and the fighting was some kind of confused hormonal shit? Fuck, that was just the kind of thing Kagome got off on rubbing in his face.
Seriously, he wasn't going down that road. He wasn't --
He froze when Sesshomaru's hands braced against the door on either side of him, effectively trapping him. He looked up, startled at how close the older youkai had gotten without him noticing.
"Inuyasha." The hanyou swallowed. Sesshomaru never called him by his name. This was a bad sign. "I believe I would like to call in the debt you owe." Oh, hell, no. Definitely a bad sign. Maybe, like, an omen of doom. This was going to hurt, whatever it was.
Fuck, could this day get any worse?
"What do you want?" he asked, quietly, his stomach sinking down into his shoes.
The youkai's lips curved in a slow smile Inuyasha couldn't help but think of as predatory. "My parents are out of town for the weekend," Sesshomaru said conversationally. "You'll come over. We can play truth or dare."
The gleam in Sesshomaru's eyes told him he was royally screwed, literally, and he could only stare mutely back.
What the hell had he gotten himself into?

Uh... another plot bunny hatched during crazy talks with Demitria Miriam. It was actually going to be something I prompted her with in our new http://inubrainbreak.livejournal.com/, our new LJ community, but when I started thinking about it, my mind ran away with it and I decided to write it myself. And here it is.
Do enjoy.
