"Do it."
"Why?"
Tsunade glared at her former student, who was now a Jōnin Elite.
"Ai, you need to stop this childish behavior. You're almost 30 years old! Now, be an adult and face your feelings!"
"But," Ai said twisting her orange-red hair in her fingers, "What if…what if he doesn't like me?"
Tsunade sighed and massaged her temples. "Okay, you're obviously not going to do anything about this, so I guess I'll have to step in. Ai, you must understand, all I want is for you to enjoy your life and be happy. You were my first pupil…you're like the daughter I never had."
Ai Manami, a 26 year old Jōnin Elite and registered Medical Ninja (Medic Nin), has had a crush (or in this case, burning passionate love) for Kakashi Hatake, a shinobi in her rank, for nearly 15 years now. She's been afraid of being rejected ever since Obito Uchiha asked her out about 17 years ago. The thing about that is; she rejected him in the sweetest way possible, but he took it so harshly he cried impenetrably for nearly two days. She felt so bad for him; she went out with him anyway. She's afraid that if Kakashi rejects her, she'll feel the same way Obito did.
"Step in?"
"I fear so. Ai Manami, I am going to help you with this…and I think I know how to do it…" Tsunade started to get a clever smile on her face.
"How?"
"Don't you worry about it, Musume… trust your kawaī Tsunade."
Ai tilted her head slightly, but did as she was told.
That night, Ai couldn't concentrate on her romance novel. She was worried that Haha Tsunade would make her do something weird and uncomfortable in order to win Kakashi's love. Tsunade would usually tell her to do something like unzip her jacket, because of her extremely large breasts.
"What could she have in mind…and why the hell am I stressing over this?"
The next day, in the middle of training her three students; Saarah Michiko, Sayuri Shun, and Tomoko Yasu, Ai was called to Lady Tsunade's office.
"Ai! You're here!" Lady Tsunade greeted as Ai came through the door.
"Ohayō, okāsan, what's going on?"
"You'll see, Musume, you'll see! Just wait until my second Jonin comes in."
Ai pondered at the last sentence Haha said. "Just wait until my second Jōnin comes in?What's that about?" she said, deep in her mind.
The door cracked open and a familiar masked face popped in. That face belonging to; Kakashi Hatake.
Ai's heart nearly ruptured out of her chest. She wanted to escape the room as soon as possible.
"Now, I called you all here to discuss a mission. The two of you will be going undercover and try to catch a wanted criminal."
"What will we be acting as?" Kakashi inquired.
"A couple."
"WHAT THE HELL?"
