04. The People In The Trees
"Shit…did you have to tell me about Genma and Iruka getting caught? On CCTV? In the Jounin lounge?" Sakura grumbled as they came to a halt on one of the trees as they sped back towards Konoha after the completion of their mission;
"It was funny!" Kakashi cleared his throat, "Well, at first,"
"Yea, until you had to put up with all of their gumbling about Tsunade-sama's punishment! God damn, hearing that put me so on edge," Kakashi looked over to his lover, in whom he could see her anxiety by the set of her shoulders, he raised an eyebrow as he stepped towards her, unused to seeing her this tense, despite the questionable nature of their own relationship - as fun as that occasionally made things; "I keep thinking the people in the trees are watching us," The Jounin's eyes flicked around like those of a frightened rabbit's, or a nin about to be attacked;
"…Um, the people in the trees? Sakura, there aren't any people in the trees," At least, there better not be!
