Kagome coughed awkwardly before pulling her hand away with the folded bill. She looked into his smoldering eyes and wondered just where she had seen them before.

Setting aside her confusion she smiled softly, "Are you a friend of the lady from the checkout line?" Kagome asked the strange male. Then only response she received was a soft 'Hn' before he turned to leave.

"Ah, excuse me sir but I haven't learned your name. It'd be very impolite of me to take your money without," Kagome breath hitched as he met her stare intensely and she continued breathlessly,"…knowing it." She finished with a brilliant light in her eye.

"It is Sesshomaru, and yours?" He replied, his deep bravado rumbling throughout his chest. His beast rattled gently in his mind when he saw the powerful woman before him tint pink with a blush.

"I am Kagome, thank you for your gift." The raven haired beauty says happily.

Sesshomaru looked at her quizzically before relinquishing a small smirk.

"Kagome, I am only paying you back. The money is no gift, just a repayment. Thank" you for your selflessness." With that he turned with a swish of silver hair and disappeared with the wind.
