            “So,” Sango began, “what are you getting Sesshomaru for your anniversary?”

            Kagome shrugged. “I haven’t decided yet.”

            Sango smirked at her best friend. “Well, you could do something romantic for him.”

            Kagome cocked her head. “Romantic like what?”

            Sango rolled her eyes. “Romantic like rose petals, lingerie, and candles.”

            Kagome’s whole face turned red. “W-what?!” she spluttered. “What?!”

            Sango laughed. “I think it’s a good idea.”

            Kagome shook her head vigorously. “Even if I wasn’t embarrassed by the idea, there’s no way I would do it. Sesshomaru wouldn’t appreciate it.”

            Sango raised her eyebrow. “Seriously? What man wouldn’t appreciate it?”

            “Him! He doesn’t like the way roses smell. The smell thing again for the candles. And scentless candles are not an option, because I would be worried that they’d get knocked over and then a fire would start and then the whole mood would be ruined. And lingerie… No lingerie. Period.”

            Sango sighed in an exasperated manner. “Why no lingerie?”

            “It’d be a waste! I mean, what’s the point of spending money on lingerie if he doesn’t even spare what I’m wearing a second glance. Or a first glance. He never cares what I’m wearing. He just tears it off.”

            “Seriously?” Sango asked.

            “Seriously.”

            Sango giggled. “Seriously?”

            Kagome nodded. “But he did once express that he’d rather I just have no clothes on at all so that he didn’t have to waste energy taking them off me.”

            They shared a look before both of them collapsed in fits of giggles.
