KAKASHI POV

I stood there with my arms crossed leaning against the door listening to Sasuke play a beautiful song on his guitar. He sang with passion and played with his soul. Not once noticing me until I walked in the room. I couldn't take it any more. I had to have him play me a song. One that really meant something to him. One that meant something to me.

" Kakashi? What are you doing here?" his voice confused at my sudden entrance. I forgot he didn't know I was here.

" Sasuke I was listening to you just now." He seemed embarrassed at what I had said. " Sasuke it was fantastic. You play from the heart not the mind. This may sound strange but can you play another? Can you play one that you really love?"

" Why? My voice is nothing special. Compared to my brothers' my voice is like finger nails to a chalk board."

" Because I think it is special. Personally it's a drug to me. Your voice speaks to your audience. That's something most singer can't do." I looked at him with a plea in my eyes. " Please?"

" Fine. I have been working on this one for a while but I can't guarantee that it's drug worthy." I nodded my head. That's when he pulled his guitar to his chest and began to let the cords fly.

(What hurts the most, by Rascal Flatts.)

"I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out
I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while
Even though going on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again I pretend I'm ok
But that's not what gets me

"What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was tryin' to do

"It's hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go
But I'm doin' It
It's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I'm alone
Still Harder
Getting up, getting dressed, livin' with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken

"What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do

"What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do

Not seeing that loving you
That's what I was trying to do

Not seeing that loving you

That's what I was trying to do." Sasuke had a small tear in his eye that he quickly whipped away.

I could tell the song was about Itachi and the tear confirmed it. " Sasuke that was beautiful. I'm so proud of you."

" You're what?"

" I said I'm proud of you. That song was just great, and the way you put everything you had in it makes it even better. Sasuke I don't care what you say you are just amazing. And if your parents couldn't see that then they missed out on a great kid." My eye curved as a sign of a smile for the young boy.

Sasuke I could tell was happy to hear this because I saw his cheeks turning red. " Thanks Kakashi. You know I mainly talk about Itachi in my songs, as a way to deal with the pain, but I think I have one about you. Iruka told me about your team and life. So I wrote this for you, because I know how you feel." I was shocked. This young boy knew all about me and wrote me a song. He didn't run from me knowing my luck, but he was drawn toward me.

( Tonight I wanna cry, by Urban Keith)

"Alone in this house again tonight
I got the TV on, the sound turned down and a bottle of wine
There's pictures of you and I on the walls around me
The way that it was and could have been surrounds me
I'll never get over you walkin' away

(Chorus:)
I've never been the kind to ever let my feelings show
And I thought that bein' strong meant never losin' your self-control
But I'm just drunk enough to let go of my pain
To hell with my pride, let it fall like rain
From my eyes
Tonight I wanna cry

Would it help if I turned a sad song on
"All By Myself" would sure hit me hard now that you're gone
Or maybe unfold some old yellow lost love letters
It's gonna hurt bad before it gets better
But I'll never get over you by hidin' this way

I've never been the kind to ever let my feelings show
And I thought that bein' strong meant never losin' your self-control
But I'm just drunk enough to let go of my pain
To hell with my pride, let it fall like rain
From my eyes
Tonight I wanna cry

I've never been the kind to ever let my feelings show
And I thought that bein' strong meant never losin' your self-control
But I'm just drunk enough to let go of my pain
To hell with this pride, let it fall like rain
From my eyes
Tonight I wanna cry" he knew exactly how I felt.

He got it down to the last dirty detail. The love letters were even true. I had some from my sensei. He was a father to me and gave me a letter every year on my birthday. Just listening made me wanna cry. " Yu are right. That is me. I never knew someone could understand me like that. Let alone a 13-year-old. Like I said Sasuke you truly are amazing."

" Thank you Kakashi. But I'm not amazing, you are. I mean you have been through just as much as I have and you can still smile, laugh, and have a good time. I sit, sing, and play songs that wine about my life. You are the truly amazing one, not me."

" What are you talking about I think your songs don't wine. They tell a story, they speak to a person and make you wonder about life. And you know something, the best of songs make you think."

" Really?"

" Really really. Sasuke don't hide your gift, share it. You are an amazing ninja, yes, but these songs are more then that. Your voice is the way you express yourself." He smiled at me not showing his teeth but still a smile.

The next thing he said was the greatest sentence I have ever heard. " I'll be sure to do that dad."

" What did you say?"

" I called you dad. You said that your sensei was like that for you. I realized you too are like a father for me. Is that okay?"

I smiled this time showing it by pulling down my mask. " It is more then okay. I've always wanted a son, and now I have one."

" You have always had one, you just didn't know it, and neither did he."
