Chapter 1:: How Hard Is It To Buy A Bunch Of Flowers …?!

"Alright Yamato, just take a deep breath and calm down … You're only going in there to buy a bunch of flowers for a friend who's in hospital … What's so wrong about that? It's not like Ino-chan's going to interrogate you … " Yamato muttered under his breath as he stared at the florists the Yamanaka family ran.

However, that friend just happened to be his ANBU senpai, Kakashi Hatake. Yamato, his cheeks turning a bright shade of red, smiled slightly as he pictured his ANBU senpai. Believe it or not, Kakashi had actually requested Yamato to be on his squad, however at first, Yamato hadn't seen eye to eye with the legendary Copy Ninja. But, he'd soon fallen prey to Kakashi's charm and ever since had … Well, to put it simply Kakashi had stolen Yamato's heart. If it were possible, he blushed a brighter shade of red and then sighed. It was no good. He'd simply find Naruto, Sakura and Sai, tell them that he had something important to do and skip going to the hospital to see Kakashi with the newly formed Team Kakashi. However, at that moment, a strong hand grasped his shoulder, and Yamato's heartbeat quickened.

"You must be the shinobi who's standing in for Kakashi-san while he's recovering."

Yamato turned slightly to face the shinobi. To his surprise it was Asuma Sarutobi, the Sandaime's son. Yamato hesitated a moment and then frowned slightly, "how did you know?"

Asuma smiled slightly, "because, no offence, you look exactly like Kakashi-san after his first mission with Team Seven."

"That bad, huh?" Yamato replied with a sigh.

Asuma laughed, "you'll get used to them."

Yamato inclined his head slightly, "I hope so, Asuma-san. I'm not sure I could handle another mission like the last one." And then Asuma removed his hand from Yamato's shoulder, his expression serious.

"What happened?" He asked softly.

Yamato sighed and raised his head. "Do you want the long or short version?"

"The short version."

"Well, to put it simply, the mission was a complete failure. Although, I'm surprised you don't already know that."

"I've been a little preoccupied, but is it true you fought Sasuke-kun?"

"Hai … It's a long story, but to put it simply, we managed to meet the Akatsuki spy at the Tenchi Bridge, who happened to be Kabuto-san. And then, Orochimaru appeared and Naruto-kun in a blind rage fought him in his Kyuubi state. After the fight, we managed to follow Orochimaru to his base and there we encountered Sasuke-kun." With a sigh, Yamato inclined his head slightly, "he's incredibly strong."

Asuma sighed, "I think we all knew he would be."

And then Yamato raised his head and smiled slightly, "but, at least now Naruto-kun will be eager to train harder than ever before."

"Is he still determined to bring Sasuke-kun back?"

"Hai."

Asuma hesitated a moment and then sighed, "well, at least you're around to help Kakashi-san keep an eye on him." Yamato smiled slightly. "So what's your name?"

"Yamato."

"Just Yamato …?"

"Hai."

"Well then, Yamato, shall we go inside, or are we going to stand out here all day like a couple of idiots …" And Asuma inclined his head towards the florists.

Yamato hesitated a moment and then sighed, "well … uh … I …"

"Are you two coming in or not?" Ino then called out to them, fixing them with a 'well make up your minds already' look, from behind her counter at the rear of the florists. "You'll scare my customers away if you stand there looking like that."

Looking like what? Yamato thought, trying not to blush, and then Asuma grabbed hold of his shoulder and leaned towards him. "Please come in with me … If I go in there on my own Ino-chan will … Well, I'll never hear the end of it from her."

Yamato's heartbeat quickened once more. Never hear the end of it … Never hear the end of it … echoed through his mind. If he went in there and bought Kakashi a bunch of flowers, Naruto and Sakura would torment him about it for the rest of his life. And he pictured them leaning over him, with wide grins on their faces. He had to think of a way to get out of this and quick. And then an idea came to him. "I've just …" but then Asuma's grip on his shoulder tightened and Yamato was dragged into the florists. Damn you Asuma … Yamato thought, glaring at the Jounin who was now taking his time studying the flowers.

Yamato envied Asuma. He wished he could just browse the wide range of flowers. Instead, he was stood near the entrance, like a complete idiot. He had no idea what kind of flowers Kakashi liked. In fact, Yamato wasn't entirely sure whether his ANBU senpai liked flowers at all. And then he caught Ino's gaze and he turned bright red. She was smiling slightly, clearly amused by his awkward behaviour. This was turning into a real nightmare … However, Yamato somehow regained his composure and walked towards Ino.

"Uh … Would you be able to help me?" He asked.

"I was wondering when you'd ask. Sure, what are you looking for?"

"Well, a clo … a good friend of mine is in hospital right now, and I was going to buy him a bunch of flowers to cheer him up a little."

"Would this male friend be Kakashi-sensei?" Ino asked, her smile broadening.

Yamato turned bright red once more. "Uh … hai."

"You don't need to be embarrassed. I think it's really sweet that you're buying him a bunch of flowers. Now, do you know what Kakashi-sensei likes?"

"Iie. I don't even know if he likes flowers in general, but a bunch of flowers is all I can afford at the moment. I paid for Team Kakashi to stay the night at a hot springs just before our last mission."

"Really? Wow! I wish our sensei would treat us like that …" Ino replied, raising her voice so Asuma could hear.

At first, Asuma pretended as if he hadn't heard Ino, but she cleared her throat and he sighed. "I treat you to barbeque, don't I?" He replied sourly, picking up a bunch of red roses.

"Not anymore. You used to treat us to barbeque, but you only did that because it was the only way you could get Chouji to train."

Asuma sighed, and then stood and turned, glaring at Yamato for the briefest of moments. "Well, I've finally decided to get these. Made up your mind yet, Yamato?"

Yamato sighed, "not yet."

And then Ino glanced sideways at Asuma. "Sensei, who are those for?" She asked, smiling mischievously.

"Uh … no-one …" Asuma replied, his cheeks turning a bright red colour. And then he cleared his throat. "Why don't I help you as well? Who are the flowers for?"

"Kakashi-sensei," Ino replied before Yamato could speak.

"Ah, well then, that's simple, get him a single white rose."

"A … a white rose …?!" Yamato mumbled, his eyes wide and his cheeks a bright red colour. He'd always associated roses with love, no matter what colour they were.

"Hai. Kakashi-san loves roses …"

"Asuma-sensei, you're so unobservant. Yamato-san can't give Kakashi-sensei a white rose, he'll be too embarrassed. Look, he's already blushing …"

Asuma studied him for a moment and Yamato turned a brighter shade of red. "Well, I admit, white roses are usually associated with marriages, but they can also be a symbol of honour and admiration. You honour and admire Kakashi-san, don't you Yamato-san?"

"Uh … hai."

"Well then, get Kakashi-san a white rose."

Yamato hesitated a moment and then sighed, "alright. Ino-chan, one white rose please."

"Hai." And on her way back to the counter, she picked up one white rose. Asuma and Yamato then looked at each other and with a sigh followed her across to the counter. Ino, who'd done this a thousand times, wrapped Yamato's white rose, then looked at him, smiling slightly.

"I'll cover the cost."

Yamato's eyes widened, "I can't let you do …"

"I insist," she replied, interrupting Yamato. And before Yamato could protest, she turned towards Asuma.

"I'll cover the cost of these too," she said softly, taking the bunch of red roses from her Jounin sensei.

"Thanks Ino," Asuma replied softly, however, he made no attempt to protest.

Yamato, slightly dumbfounded stared at the Jounin, but Asuma merely ignored him and then took the bunch of red roses from Ino after she'd wrapped them.

"Come on then." Asuma, almost hissed, snapping Yamato out of his trance like state.

"Right. Uh … thanks Ino-chan." Yamato said, inclining his head slightly.

"No problem. Say hello to Kakashi-sensei for me. And Asuma-sensei …"

Asuma, who'd nearly left the florists stopped dead in his tracks. "What is it, Ino-chan?" He asked, not daring to look at her.

"Say hello to Kurenai-sensei for me," Ino said softly, smiling mischievously.

Asuma hesitated a moment and then teleported. Yamato hastily followed suit.
