Summary: Kakashi sometimes just needs a few more approaches to finally say what he wants to say. KakashiShizune

AN: It isn't important to know what Kakashi did do/say in the first place! Don't know it myself… ;-)

Dear Shizune
You are right. I went too far and you have every right to be angry with me. I can't say any more what the hell came over me…
I guess I deserve that you threw the dinnerware onto me, that you made me sleep on the couch, that you ignored me, that…
…I'm an ass! I made you cry…
You were the first woman who really felt for me. Maybe that was what made me love you. You just liked me…
I'm quite the plague and at least you have been able to laugh about it…
Nooo!
When I first met you I did meet a wonderful woman. One who challenged me. I looked up to you.
You probably don't believe me but it's true. You're…
Scratch that!
Standard was, Kakashi has everything under control, Kakashi always knows what to do. That isn't right. When I'm with you…
What nonsense!
...A few days ago you said you wanted to have a look into my soul for five minutes to be able to understand me. Unfortunately, that isn't possible. Namely for the reason that I have no soul at all…
Well, you know me. Better than anyone else I guess. I'm not really good with big words.
I just… You make me speechless, you know!?
You – just you…
With whom or what did I actually fall in love back then? With the woman who looked at me with big eyes every time I came into the room? With the woman who stuttered when she had been talking to me? With the woman who held nothing but scorn in every gesture, in every motion and every syllable toward me when I had angered her or anyone dear to her?
Only you…
Kami, I'm rambling…
Hell, what I actually wanted to say was I'm really sorry!
Do you wanna have lunch with me?
Shizune folded the letter up with a small smile on her face and turned to Kakashi. "I'd love to."
AN 2: Please review!! You'd make my day! Thanks!
