A/N: Mikiri is my OC; Leyco is my friend's. Just Kakashi being difficult as always. Enjoy!


"Mikiri, you feeling okay?" Kakashi asked, smirking over his morning coffee. Mikiri glared weakly in his general direction. "It's Saturday, before 8 AM, why are you awake?"

"Because I've been waking up before the sun every morning for that other God forsaken mission." Mikiri laid her head on the counter. "What are people even supposed to do this early?" She asked grumpily.

Kakashi set down his mug and moved behind her. "I can think of something," he whispered in her ear. That got her attention. She sat up and turned to face him. With her sitting on the stool at their counter and him standing, the height difference was ridiculous. Kakashi put both hands on her head and tilted it back. He kissed her long and slow. Just as Mikiri was beginning to melt, he pulled back. His hand moved from the side of her head and- quickly pulled his mask up as he stepped back. "But I've got to go meet Guy at the training field so you'll have to come up with something to do on your own."

Mikiri gaped at him for a moment before laying her head back on the counter. "I'm going to end that guy one day." Kakashi chuckled. He put his mug in the sink and went to grab his vest. "What's a girl gotta do to sleep with her husband?" she grumbled into the counter.

"Be here tonight," Kakashi offered helpfully.

Mikiri ignored him. "Maybe I could hire you for a special mission," she mused.

"Do we offer services like that?" Kakashi wondered. He pulled on his shoe.

"No, what do you think we are, the sand village?"

Kakashi pulled on his other shoe, now fully dressed.

Mikiri lifted her head. "Don't tell Leyco I said that."

Kakashi kissed her forehead through his mask. "Don't hire me as a prostitute, and I'll consider it."

Mikiri smiled, and Kakashi disappeared out the door. "Who the hell trains on a Saturday?" Mikiri grumbled, getting coffee for herself. There was no way she could go back to sleep now.

"You do."

Mikiri jumped. "Leyco, you've got to stop appearing in my kitchen!"

"Well last time I appeared in the bedroom it was awkward for all of us."

Mikiri grimaced at the memory. "I mean give me a heads up or something. Don't just- ugh, you know exactly what I mean."

Leyco grinned. Mikiri was so easy to mess with in the mornings. "Why you awake? You and Kakashi have some morning fun times?"

"No." Mikiri said with a little more irritation than normal. "You just missed him. He's gone to train with Guy."

"Uh oh, Mikiri, you're losing your husband to another man. Guy is pretty youthful though. I bet he's always up early."

"It is too early in the morning for me to want to kill you this much, Leyco."

"Actually, that's exactly what I want you to do. Come train with me. All the sand village ninja are afraid of me cause I might accidently burn the whole village to the ground." Leyco batted her eyes.

"So what you're saying is I'm too stupid to be worried about the safety of others?"

"Exactly."

"You make the coffee. I'll go get dressed. You morning people are going to be the death of me."

Leyco watched Mikiri shuffle off down the hall. She could see where Kakashi had made his coffee. She opened the cabinet, knowing exactly where everything was. By the time Mikiri had returned, Leyco had the coffee ready to go in a travel mug. It wasn't the first time she had made Mikiri coffee. She was usually awake before her friend. Most people usually were.

"Thanks," Mikiri said, taking the cup as they started out the door. "We gotta be done by tonight though."

"Why is that? You got a mission tomorrow?"

"Not exactly. Just want to sleep in my own bed tonight."

Leyco considered that for a moment then shook her head. "Sure, sure. You and Kakashi got a meeting there tonight, I'm guessing?"

"Quite possibly. This morning that jerk kissed me like it was going to lead somewhere, then ran off to play with Guy."

"Oh that's cold. No wonder you were in such a great mood. Man, how long's it been since you two slept together?"

Mikiri just grinned sheepishly. "Umm, ten hours maybe?"

"Good lord, you two are worse than rabbits."

"At any time, we could have to go on mission for over a year. Not to mention he's always reading those darn books, and I'm, well, me."

"I'm pretty sure that's the real root of the problem here." Instead of responding, Mikiri just downed the rest of her coffee. They had reached the edge of the village buildings. "I'm thinking we should go west to the big training field with lots of water. Like I said I'm trying to expand the range of my fire. I'd prefer it be as easy as possible for you to put out the countryside should my aim be a little off."

"Smartest thing you've said all morning."

...

Mikiri plopped on her bed. It was late but Kakashi wasn't back yet. She hoped she could sleep a bit before Kakashi returned. If not, she might have to get a rain check on their activities tonight. Leyco and she had battled nonstop all day. Leyco's range had improved as had Mikiri's ability to quickly back flip away from flaming projectiles. Overall, a productive day.

The sound of their front door opening reached Mikiri. She hoped Kakashi wasn't too disappointed she was too tired. She was disappointed enough for the both of them. Kakashi came in and fell into his side of the bed. Mikiri gave him a moment before she spoke up, "can I postpone our plans for tonight? I'm exhausted and slightly singed."

"Absolutely not. You said you wanted to sleep with your husband and that's exactly what I'm going to do." Kakashi turned to lay on his side.

"You smell bad," Mikiri informed him, not opening her eyes.

"So do you," he retorted into his pillow. Within minutes, they were both sound asleep.
