"Kakashi! What are you doing! God! Look at this mess! I swear you get worse every time I clean this place up!" Scolded Kiyomi as she started picking up scattered and thrown articles of clothing.
Kakashi sighed heavily, "It's fine, Kiyomi. I'll clean it up in a few. I'm just a little tired that's all." He said as he heaved himself onto the couch with a first aid kit. Kiyomi eyed him and the white box he had in his lap.
"What have you done to yourself this time?" She said tossing the clothes aside into a pile.
Kiyomi briskly walked over to him snatching the box away from him, he hissed quietly in pain. Her face softened when she saw pain flicker across his features, "You need to stop overdoing it. You're worst than Naruto, I swear!" She said as she gingerly sat next to him, helping him to take off his long sleeve shirt.
Kakashi watched her as she glanced over his tired and sore back. She sighed, not saying a word, and opened the kit. She pulled out the muscle relaxant cream, opened it, and smeared some into her plams. As she rubbed her hands together to soften and warm the cream, "Hey Kakashi." She started as she begun to rub his back.
He could feel his muscles rejoice in the massage they were receiving, "Yeah?" He said suppressing a moan.
"Remember that time when you and I were on our first ANBU mission together?" She said.
Kakashi glanced back at her and she still worked her soft hands into his back, "Yeah. How could I? It was the first time you actually cried in front of me." He said.
Kiyomi was at the age of sixteen when she and Kakashi was partnered for an ANBU for just the two of them. Kiyomi was still serious and cold hearted, Kakashi was surprised that she still was still very cold. Their mission was to retrieve some stolen scroll and information that was only known to a selective few. Kiyomi and Kakashi agreed to the mission without a second thought.
When Kakashi and Kiyomi were traveling through the forest, Kakashi decided then to strike a coversation with the serious natured kunochi.
"Kiyomi." Said Kakashi.
With a cold eye, Kiyomi looked to Kakashi, "What is it?" She stated.
"Why are you still so serious? That isn't like you." He said.
Kiyomi snorted, "Then you don't know me to well do you, Kakashi-baka." She snarled.
Kakashi sighed, "Let's finished this mission and get back to Konoha." He said.
"The sooner the better." She stated.
When they reached their destination, a trap was set for them. Kakashi got Kiyomi out, along with the stolen scroll, Kakashi was wounded. Kakashi found shelter for he and Kiyomi to gather themselves. As they ready themselves, Kiyomi noticed blood trickling down Kakashi's left side.
"Kakashi. You're wounded. Let me help you." She ordered grabbing his arm.
"I'm..fine. Let's go." He said and took a step forward, then slammed into a tree for support.
"You idiot! Hold still before you make it worse!" She snarled forcing him to sit at the base of the tree.
Kakashi glanced through his mask seeing her eyes were blood shot, 'You're...crying?' He thought as he dressed his wound.
"It's nothing to major as long you don't strain it. The medical nin can dressed it better once we get back to Konoha." She said after a sniffle.
"Kakashi! Jeez. Wake up!" Scolded Kiyomi.
Kakashi's single eye opened to a angered Kiyomi, "You're squishing me!" She snarled.
"Oh! Sorry, Kiyomi." He said as he sat forward.
She grunted, "Stay awake next time." She said readjusting her position next to him, continuing to rub his back. His back had a tingling sensation, he could feel that his muscles had finally loosen and were no longer giving him pain.
He could hear her humming a wordless song, "Kiyomi?" He asked.
"Yeah, Kakashi?" She responded as she worked now at his neck and shoulders.
"I wonder something." He begun.
This cause her eyes to advert to his covered face, "Something like what? You're acting awfully odd today. Is everything alright?" She said sounding worried.
"Oi. It's nothing to worry over. I was just wondering, how come you smile a whole lot more than you did when we were on that ANBU mission together." He said turning his head slightly.
Kiyomi blinked, "Well, you know why. You scared the hell out of me when you got hurt because of my stupidity. So. I guess I. I just didn't want to lose you." She said.
Kakashi gave a nod, "Oh." He said, then there was a long silent pause.
Kiyomi's face flushed from her answer, she opened her mouth to speak, but kept quiet.
A smile appeared on Kiyomi's lips and she broke the silence, "That was then. This is now, time changes and moves like a river. It's never the same, always flowing. I'm just another fish in that river." She said.
Kakashi chuckled, "Another fish, eh? Then what that makes me?" He said.
Kiyomi tilted her head, "The bird that comes to carry me away." She said.
So what do you guys think? I got bored and thought I should make a couple song fics. Enjoy and please r&r.
