Today was a fairytale

Authors note- Hey everyone, I figured it was time to write something new to post, so I thought hey, why not my latest obsession? This story is Sakura x Kakashi, but has many hints of Sasori x Sakura. I hope that you will enjoy this story and leave many comments about it. I do so love reading comments!

Warning- I don't own any of the characters from Naruto, (even though I wish I did) The only thing that belongs to me is the story, not the characters!

Kakashi looked around, seeing nothing but the large forest which surrounded his village. He had so many good memories from this forest, most happening in the last six years. This is where his first (and so far only) three man cell had trained and grown up, together through the exercises that he, himself planned out for them.

It had been six years since he had met his team. Sasuke; at twelve he had been hot headed, at fifteen he had been power hungry, and finally at eighteen he made a change for the better. He was much wiser and no longer made any quick, yet stupid mistakes, Sasuke was now a very powerful ninja. Naruto; at twelve he had been strong and determined, yet stupid, at fifteen he had been powerful but still made many mistakes, and finally at eighteen he calmed down and was now a strong, and somewhat wise ninja. It was true that he still made mistakes, but he always managed to make up for what he lacked with heart.

Then of course, there was Sakura. She had always been in a league entirely her own. From the moment he had met her, up until this very second, Sakura was perfect. She was always cute, determined and had the strength and the brains of three ninja put together. For the longest time she had been his most precious student, but that had all changed when she went into apprenticeship under Tsunade. In those years she went from being a cute, ready to learn student, to a strong, beautiful medic nin.

Kakashi walked up to a tree and rested his head upon the trunk. A smile graced the face of the masked ninja; it was truly unbelievable how beautiful she had grown before his very eyes. Even the word beautiful didn't seemed to match how she looked; 'Perfect, a much better way to describe her would be she's perfect.' Kakashi thought with a happy tone. It was hard to remember that Sakura had once been his student, for he wanted nothing more than to reach out and touch her. 'I wonder how it would play out if I just asked her out on a date.' Kakashi's mind debated desperately.

As he laughed over his own thought, Kakashi felt the pain from the bruises and cuts which covered his entire body. Missions these days were getting tougher and tougher, not to mention his wasn't getting any younger. Not that he was old, it's just he was a teenager anymore. As a teenager he had always been ready to jump in front of the gun from anyone, during any mission. He felt himself sigh, it was time to get to the hospital. At least he would be able to see Sakura there. 'No, that's wrong. I don't want her to see me all beat up like I am right now.' Kakashi growled at himself.

Kakashi pulled himself away from the tree and started towards the village; it was time to bring in the report of his latest mission. Then he would be free to pay Sakura a long awaited visit. 'Maybe I should try hinting towards a date. After all, if she is disgusted I could just say she just misunderstood.' Formulated Kakashi.

It took half of the day to do the report and as usual, he was told to go to the hospital after. That of course, wasn't going to happen. He had plan\'s already; drop in unexpected into Sakura's new apartment. Her first apartment ever, before about a month ago she had lived with her family. She had been happy there, but when she turned eighteen, Sakura moved out of her parents house and too just across from the hospital. Kakashi had supported this move all the way through, sometime it felt awkward to drop in through her window with her parent's home.

Leaving the hokage's office Kakashi walked down street toward the direction of Sakura's home. Maybe he would even use the front door for once; this could be a very special occasion after all. Yes, Sakura would be very surprised to hear him knock on the door and even more surprised to see him in through it. Kakashi smirked imagining the look that would be sure to grace her face, a look of great surprise and shock. That look would give him the opportunity to hint at the two of them going out.

As he arrived at his destination, he broke out of thoughts and knocked on the door. Once, twice, and then trice; why was she not coming to the door? She was home, he knew her work days and this was defiantly not one of them. Could something possibly be wrong? What is she had gotten attacked by another ninja and was deeply wounded or maybe even dead. Dead is a very strong word and one that Kakashi prayed he would never have to hear being used about Sakura.

Suddenly, Kakashi became consumed with frantic worry, could it really be possible that she was hurt? Without another thought, Kakashi opened up the door and walked straight in. 'Nothing appears to be wrong with the house environment. Still, she shouldn't leave her front door open, someone could just walk in off of the street.' Kakashi thought in a very worried tone. *Isn't that what you just did?* Kakashi searched the entire apartment but was unable to find any signs of a fight. In fact, he couldn't even find a single object in the place which was out of its place. "Shit, I guess I shouldn't have just jumped to conclusions." Kakashi began to mumble to himself.

He was knocked out of his thoughts and realization, when the door clicked open. 'Shit, she is going to think I'm a pervert who likes to go through her stuff!' With no time to think about anything else, Kakashi concealed himself under her bed. Not one second later, Sakura walked into the room. From under the bed, he couldn't see very much, but he could tell that she wasn't alone. Suddenly Kakashi felt himself grow very angry; how dare she invite another man over when he planned on visiting her. *She doesn't even know you're there and you sort of broke into her house.*

Unable to see the man in her bedroom, all Kakashi could do to identify him was listen to his voice. "It isn't everyday that I get to talk to you. I haven't even seen you since that fight we had in the desert. In fact, that was the first and the last time we ever met. You looked so damn beautiful, even while trying to bash the inside of my skull in." The man said while advancing towards Sakura.

'Who is this guy? It's no one that I've ever heard before. It sounds like those two have had some kind of huge fight before.' Kakashi wondered. A sudden movement made Kakashi look back up to see what was happening. The man's feet seemed to corner Sakura's and trap her from leaving. Kakashi felt his heart contract; it looked like they were kissing. 'I don't belong in this apartment and I don't belong with Sakura.' Kakashi though with a severe depression.
