An hour later, Sakura stood just outside the Hokage's office, feeling very relieved at having told someone. She was so thankful that The Third still liked her. Sakura pushed away from the wall she was leaning against looking down at her hidden stomach. The Hokage had taught her how to apply the technique that allowed only those with previous knowledge of her condition to see it. As the girl began to walk down the hall, she made sure to hide her belly. Though she was showing it wasn't huge, but still at four months anyone with eyes and a half a brain could tell.

As Sakura wandered down the hall, deep in thought, she accidentally bumped into someone. "Sorry," Sakura mumbled, blushing slightly as she put a hand to her stomach out of habit. She looked up to see Kakashi looking down at her and her apology caught in her throat as she stared. He looked so young. She put her hand to her head and looked away as something clicked in her younger body, "Ah, training!" she cried, hand flying back to her stomach.

Kakashi looked down at her, amusement and worry flashed across his visible eye. "Sakura-chan, I would have expected this from Naruto or Sasuke, but not from you," his masked lips curled into a grin and Sakura noticed that his eye crinkled into a smile.

Blushing slightly more now, she cringed. "Sorry, Kakashi, I'll go..."

A voice behind her cut her off as she looked away from Kakashi's startled face. "Sakura-chan, where are your manners?" Iruka-sensei's voice sounded behind her. Sakura grimaced and turned slightly, startled at his younger face, now wrinkle free.

"What do you mean Sensei?" she asked the young man. "What have I done?" her nerves jangling like a charm bracelet, she stopped the feeling by placing her other hand on her belly.

"Kakashi is your sensei, yet you show him no respect," Iruka-sensei's eyes narrowed slightly and he nodded as Sakura's eyes widened.

"Kakashi I-I mean K-Kakashi-sensei," Sakura stuttered in her embarrassment. "I am s-so s-sorry! I f-forgot..." her excuse died on her lips as she saw him trying to hold off laughter. "H-hey, don't laugh at me!" she felt her cheeks heat up and she disappeared in a poof of smoke, forgetting that at sixteen she'd been unable to do so and startling her senseis very much.

Leaving the horrid situation, Sakura reappeared just by the training spot for the day where she was to meet with Naruto and Sasuke for their training, as well as Kakashi. Sakura figured if she kept it simple, she would feel better at the end of the morning.

Training flew by, Sakura hadn't remembered when she'd had so much fun, especially since she'd been pregnant as Kakashi was always worrying or away on missions. As Sakura looked up at his younger self, she noticed he'd been watching her. She slipped away quietly into the woods for some alone time, missing her Kakashi and wishing she could tell him about the whole ordeal.

As Sakura settled into her perch in a nearby tree, she let the illusion fall so she could talk with her baby in private. She rubbed her sweaty stomach, "Baby, it's so tough here, nobody knows about you and your Daddy hasn't found out. He doesn't know and now..." The girl trailed off, feeling a presence nearby the tree. Quickly she put the illusion back up to hide her baby belly.

"Kakashi," she felt the name slip through her lips.

Suddenly the young man was perched on the tree next to her. "Sakura-chan, you really have become bold in addressing me recently, what is it? Did something happen when I went to that club last week?"

Sakura shook her head, wishing she wasn't back in time where he would keep his face hidden from her. "S-sorry, Sensei, it isn't that, I just..." Sakura couldn't tell him now. Not about everything. "Did the Hokage tell you anything? Because if sh-he did than forget it, please."

Kakashi's eye widened and he suddenly looked interested. "No he didn't, but I bet that's what Iruka went in their to talk with him about, I bet he knows more than me!" Kakashi's voice raised and the twenty-year-old shook his head in disbelief. "My own student," he mumbled.

Suddenly, Kakashi stood and began to walk away, "Come on Sakura-chan, we need to go catch that bastard," Kakashi's lips turned up under his mask and he looked at her expectantly. Wanting her to follow in suit. Sakura blushed and began to haul herself up by the tree, embarrassed by how awkward her belly made it to get up and down.

As he saw her struggle he lifted her up easliy, only showing off in her opinion. As she looked at Kakashi, she saw concern, but she brushed it off, as well as her bottom. "Thanks," she mumbled, blushing yet again.

Embarrassment filled her as Kakashi leaned close. "Are you alright?" he asked her, getting close enough that Sakura felt herself get dizzy.

She'd been sorely lacking in the Kakashi department as her Kakashi had been gone on a mission for the last month. As she thought this, she squinched her eyes shut and shook her head. "No!" she scolded herself. "Stop it," she told her belly. The baby was making her emotions run wild.

Kakashi cleared his throat, "Sakura, are you alright? What's hurting you? Did you pull something in training?" Sakura shook her head again and opened her eyes, her sensei's face too close for comfort.

The teenager pushed him back. "I need some space Kakashi...sensei," she added as an afterthought.

The man pulled away, startled, and Sakura could see the hurt in his eye. "I can't do it, you've been gone...but..." Sakura mumbled trying to back-peddle and forgetting her place yet again. "Sensei, I'm so, so sorry," she said, tears sparkling in her eyes and making her angry at her emotions. With a puff of smoke, she disappeared again, leaving Kakashi behind, dazed and curious.
