Disclaimer: Nope, not mine, DO NOT OWN.
Now, Naruto wasn't sure exactly when he started to actually like Kakashi. It was probably sometime after the fight with Deidara. Though that doesn't really matter now, does it? At first he saw nothing wrong with it, it was normal for a student to have a healthy relationship with their teacher, right? But then when Kakashi started to train him for perfecting a new jutsu, Naruto realized, he didn't just like Kakashi, he liked Kakashi.
For a boy that was chasing after Sakura for most of his life, liking a boy, let alone his teacher, in that same manner was rather awkward for him. It was even more awkward when Kakashi told him that he was actually starting to like him. He wasn't upset with that because he thought it meant Kakashi liked him like that, but because he knew he didn't. He knew Kakashi meant it in a totally friendly manner. And the fact that Kakashi got freaked out after realizing what that sounded like didn't help either.
Then later he heard Sakura talking about Kakashi and Iruka breaking up. The first thing he thought was Kakashi is gay?. But then he realized that, yes, Kakashi was gay, but he was dating Iruka!
The first thing he said was "Kakashi and Iruka are dating?" over, and over, again. While doing so he couldn't help but run in circles. In the end Sakura had to hit him over the head, and explain to him that "NO they are not dating, they BROKE UP!".
By the time that this information finally settled in Naruto's brain, and actually started making since, he was already in bed. After realizing that Kakashi was gay and free, he couldn't help but wait for tomorrow so he could ask him out! He could barely sleep that night, and kept giggling foolishly like a school girl.
The next day Naruto went strait to where he knew Kakashi would be, the old training grounds. Of course, that's where he was, reading a violently orange book, as always. Naruto didn't realize this until he got there, but he had nothing to say! He couldn't help but feel like a total dult, he should have thought of a plan before hand! But there was nothing he could do now...
"Hey! Kaka-sensaii!" he yelled across the training grounds.
Kakashi looked up. "aahhhh, Naruto," he said, closing his book, sitting up, and walking slowly across to where Naruto was.
Naruto couldn't help but notice every little detail about Kakashi, the way he slouched as he walked. The way you could see him smile with his eye's. Even the way he half shuffled, but not enough to skuff up his shoes with dirt.
"Uhmmmm," Naruto began, "I was thinking! Since we seem to have gotten closer as teacher and student, we should go out for ramen!" OK, so it wasn't the best way to ask someone on a date, but what did you expect?
Still wearing that eye smile, still slouching, and still carelessly holding his oh-so-precious book. Kakashi laughed, patted Naruto's head, and informed him that "No, he does not want to go for ramen. And in fact, he didn't really like ramen anyways!" And the continued to read his book, while walking away, very, very, slowly.
I won't give up, Kakashi, I never give up. I can and will fight for you love.
