A/N: So this is my first KakaNaru fic, also my first Naruto story… So hopefully I got the characters right. But there needs to be more Naruto Kakashi love out there so here we go!

Kakashi strolled leisurely down the road, on the way to the Hokage's office for his next mission. He slowed to a stop and casually looked up at the green building on his left.

'Naruto must be heading over to the Hokage's about now… I wonder if he's left yet...' Kakashi aimlessly wondered. Wish a shrug, he took the small detour and walked up to Naruto's door. For an instant before knocking, his hand hovered just above the surface as he listened for any sign of his blonde-haired friend. When he heard some shuffling from inside, Kakashi knocked lightly on the door, "Naruto are you in there?"

A sudden silence fell over the space. Kakashi waited a second before knocking again, calling out, "Naruto I know you're there,"

Naruto yelled a muffled, "Go away,"

The Copy-Ninja hesitated before pushing open the door slowly and saying, "Naruto I'm coming in,"

As Kakashi opened the door, he saw Naruto look up with a tear stained face. Naruto quickly turned from him, wiping away the tears quickly with his sleeve, and throwing his head into his hand. Kakashi stood still for a second, taken by surprise. He did not expect to see Naruto this way. The Normally happy and hyperactive shinobi was now the opposite of his normal self.

After a few seconds of silence Kakashi opened his mouth to say something, but Naruto cut him off before he could make a sound, "What do you want,"

Kakashi stopped for another moment, staring at Naruto with a stoic expression on his face.

"I just wanted to see if you wanted to walk with me to the Hokage's office, since your house was on the way," Kakashi started, "Are you alright?"

Naruto took a slow breath before turning around with his characteristic smile, and responding, "Of course I am, I just need to get my shoes on and I'll meet you outside,"

Kakashi didn't believe that Naruto was cured of his sadness that quickly, but decided to drop It for now. He shrugged then said, "Alright if you say so," and stepped outside the ninja's room.

Pulling out his book, Kakashi stared at the pages, but didn't read a single word. Instead his thoughts dwelled on what he had just seen in the room behind him, 'Why was Naruto so upset just now…"

Naruto then burst from his room and called out to Kakashi, "Ready to go now? I've been waiting all day for you," and with a laugh, started to walk. Kakashi waited for Naruto to get a few paces ahead of him before pushing himself from the wall and following Naruto in a nonchalant manner.

In a few long strides Kakashi had caught up to Naruto and was walking side by side with him. They walked silently for a few minutes until Naruto spoke up, "Couldn't wait to see me huh?" he said smugly

Kakashi raised his eyebrow and retorted, "If this is what I get for being nice I just won't bother next time,"

Naruto looked down sheepishly, "No that's okay, I don't mind it when you come over. I actually really like it. And I…" he trailed off.

Kakashi looked up, "Hmm?" He prompted

Naruto looked up at Kakashi and simply grinned. The same grin that melted Kakashi's heart the first day he realized how much he loved that smile.

That smile that lit up the sky.

That smile that made people believe in him.

That smile… That was Naruto.

Naruto's smile morphed into a smirk as he said, "Whatcha staring at,"

Kakashi snapped out of his thoughts and just shrugged, and said, "Nothing really,"

Naruto's face fell, "What? No you have to tell me!"

"Nope,"

"AW come on!"

Kakashi shook his head, as Naruto continued to pester him with the reason why he was looking at him.

But Kakashi didn't know either. He just stared into Naruto's big cerulean eyes and chuckled at his antics. "We're going to be late if you don't hurry it up,"

Naruto scoffed, "You're one to talk," as they walked up the stairs to the Hokage together.

A/N More chapters to come!
