"Did Ai come home last night

"Stupid Naruto always being stupid. I'll just make curry rice for a whole week and Naruto will have to buy ramen."

"Did I just hear curry rice?" Kakashi questioned poofing next to Ai.

"What the hell? Don't sneak up on people like that; I almost put this kunai in your eye." Ai advised Kakashi calming herself down.

"That's no way to speak to an elder. Is it your mother's?" Kakashi asked as they began walking.

"Is what my mother's? This kunai? Actually, that's a funny story, one day I was walking my pet rabbit and this kid came out of a bush then-

"The curry rice, is it your mother's?" Kakashi cut her off.

"Yeah my grandma taught me how to make it; it's the same as mom's. Aiyoku just heats up leftovers, taste mine and you'll swear you're in heaven."

"A little conceited are we?" Kakashi scratched the back of his head.

"It's not conceited if I'm being honest." Ai corrected him.

"You're becoming more like your mother everyday."

"How would I know? She's never around anymore." Ai muttered looking away.

"She is a ninja." Kakashi reminded Ai causing her to sigh.

"I know. It's just that when she's around she looks at me as if I ruined her life. I swear she wishes Sakura was Aiyoku's little sister instead of me." Ai mentioned gazing over at Kakashi. "Kakashi you're the only one I'll ever love. We should get married."

Not this again, I shouldn't have let her watch Evangelion. "If you feel the same way in thirteen years we'll get married but what about Naruto?"

"Thirteen years is such a long time to wait and besides Naruto's always talking about Sakura, he doesn't even know I like him." Ai said kicking at the ground.

"Maybe you should tell him." Kakashi suggested.

"Since when are you all insightful and crap, you know as well as I do that I'd have a better chance of convincing Sasuke to shave his hair off than getting Naruto to understand my feelings. Do you know when my mom's coming home?"

"It could be a while. She's traveling farther than she usually does." Kakashi answered Ai as they made their way to her front gate.

"Good. I like it better when you stay with me. Aiyoku always gets to go to relatives outside of town while I watch the house but you make it all better. Anyway, I think eating nothing but curry rice helps me fill out better. See Kakashi, pretty soon I'll be like those girls wearing swim suits on your naughty book." Ai noted making Kakashi run into her fence. "You're so funny Kakashi." Ai giggled running into her house.
