Chapter 7
The Sweet, The Sour, The Good, The Bad
Kakashi placed the exhausted Ino on her bed and watched as she still cried silently. "Ino," he said softly, "look into my eyes." She looked up and stared into Kakashi's normal eye (his sharingan was covered). He raised his hand, and in a quick movement, pulled down his forehead protector. Then he used the blood red eye to make the young girl feel sleepy.
"Kakashi, I don't want to sleep." Her eyes closed and she fell back into her pillow, so fatigued, and was in a deep slumber. He watched her breathing become regular and left her to her dreams. Satisfied, he pulled up his forehead protector and decided that it was time to depart. He left in a hurry; after all, Sakura was expecting him and he couldn't leave her waiting.
Darn. Kakashi was coming over and her house was a mess. She did a few fast hand signs and used her quick jutsu to help her clean up. As soon as she finished, she still felt like something was not right…something seemed to be missing. Dinner! Of course! Kakashi would be tired and most likely hungry. She ran around trying to make his favorite dish, broiled saury with salt, and was trying to to clean the mess she was making as she cooked. Finally, she was done and placed the delicious food on a plate. She was about to turn around and and place the dish of food on the table when she felt a warm breeze in her ear and a voice that followed it. "I hope that's for me…it looks sooo good, almost as good as you." Sakura spun around and came face to face with the man she was waiting for.
"Kakashi-sensei!" Then seeing the look on his face she corrected herslef. "Kakashi! How did you get in? I never heard the door open." Then seeing the open window in the dining room she shook her head sadly. "Haven't you ever heard of a door?" He grinned and she felt butterflies in her stomach. How could he make her feel so nervous just by smiling at her? "So is Ino still mad?"
He gave her a long stare and thought for a second. "Sakura-chan, she has just found out that the man she loves is dead and never wanted her. She has just learned that, instead, he had loved her best friend and rival. Her whole world has been turned upside down, Sakura. Imagine what you would be feeling if you were in that situation." He gave her an understanding look full of compassion. His eye crinkled, telling her that he was smiling, and took the dish from her and placed it on the table. He leaned back and studied her. She had changed into a tight black halter top and a short denim skirt that went halfway up her knees. Heer hair was pulled back in a hight ponytail with a few strands hanging infront of her face. The only makeup he could see was the lipgloss on her lips. She looked so good that he was surprised. The last time he saw her she was just wearing a white tanktop and long black pants. He saw her noticing him looking at her and said, "Why don't you relax and I'll do the rest."
She blushed at the way his eyes scanned her, looking at everything about her and inspecting every detail. She sat down at the table slowly and saw him rushing around to get the plates for them, cutlery, wine, and two wine glasses. She saw him look in her freezer and pull out a tub of vanilla icecream that she had forgotten about, and brouth it to the table too. Before he sat down he served some of the yummy food to her and sat down beside her. He piled a huge heap of food on his plate and noticed Sakura staring at him. "What is it? Do I look strange?"
Sakura smiled. He was teasing her. He wore the same black shirt and green vest that he always wore. He even had the same pants on! "No Kakashi, nothing is wrong. You just have to take out your mask while you're eating." He stared at her. Damn, he had forgotten.
"Look over there!" She just smiled and shook her head, knowing his tricks. "I think your phone is ringing." Again she smiled and stared at him, waiting for him to take off his mask and eat. The tantalizing smell was tempting him, but he didn't really want to show her his mask. It was something he wanted to keep to himself.
"Please Kakashi? You never let me see your face last time. Just let me have a glimpse at it one and I'll never ask again!" Sakura stared at him pleadingly. "Come on Kakashi." She made a pouty face and gave him puppydog eyes.
He smiled at her and said, "You know, when you look at me that way how could I say no?" He leaned closer and whispered, "But I need something from you first. You see, ever since that kiss I've been wanting more." He watched her eyes widen and a blush creep across her cheeks. He forward as did she. She closed her eyes in anticipation. She waited. What was taking hom so long? She opened her eyes and saw him leaning on the back of his chari wit a definate smile on hs face under his mask. She glanced at his dis and saw that it was empty.
"KAKASHI!" she yelled at him. He just gave her an innocent look.
"What us it Sakura-chan?" he said it so calmly that it fueled her anger.
"You were supposed to show me your face!" She was so mad at him.
He just grinned and said, "I fi showed you my face it would ruin all my fun. Why would I want that?"
She gave him an evil grin and responded, "Because you like me."
"You're not the first girl I have liked and you may not be the last." Seeing her smile fade he said, "But you're right Sakura I do like you, and I don't think I will like anyone as much as I like you."
"So do you like me enough to show me your face?"
"I don't think so Sakura-chan."
They went on chatting as Sakura ate her dinner. Then when it was time for desert, Kakashi waited until his icecream melted before drinking it through his mask. Sakura was very dissapointed at thins, she had thought that this would be another opportunity to see his covered face.
After desert Kakashi looked at the large clock on Sakura's wall and saw that it was really late, it was almost 12am. He could tell that she was really tired, and he was too, so he decided to call it a night. "Sakura it's really late, I think it's time I left." Seeing the dissapointed look on her face he added, " What will people think if they see me leave your house so late? You know I like you, but it is forbidden Sakura-chan. You are tired to. Let's just call it a night."
He turned to walk away (out the window) when suddenly he flet Sakura's hand around his wrist. "Please don't leave me Kakashi. Everytime I close my eyes I see Sauske hurting me and you're not there. I'm scared Kakashi…please don't go." Tears were filling up in her eyes, and he new that she really needed him. Reaching for his forehead protector, Sakura stopped him. "I don't want to fall asleep with that thing Kakashi. It just reminds me of how you did it last tiem before you and him fought. I was so scared. I didn't know what was going on. Please do't make me go through that again!"
Kakashi lookd at the young woman and saw the desperation in her eyes. Shw was truly afraid. "What do you want me to do then?"
"Just sleep with me for a bit Kakashi. I'm afraid. Please…just stay with me until I fall asleep." He looked into her eyes and nodded. This was going to be a long night.
She stepped into the room. All she wore was a huge shirt that was a little shorter than the length of the skirt she had worn earlier in the night. Shivers went up and down his body as he saw her shilloute luminated in the doorway. It was going to take all of his self control to stop him from going any further than sleeping next to her. Her felt her slide into the bed, and under the blankets, beside him and felt her warm body against his. He tried to remain his distance, but she kept moving closer and sguggling up to him. Finally he gave up when he reached he end of the bed and tried to keep his body motioless. Her arms wrapped around his neck and her head lay against his chest. Her soft breath blew gently on his chest and she shivered from the coldness.
He couldn't take it anymore. He wrapped his arms around her slim waist and pulled her closer to him. Her lips pressed against his thin shirt and he instantly felt the temperature rise under the covers. He tried to remain controled, but it was hard with her lying so close to him. He heard her murmmers of thanks and her sighs of content. Her legs twisted up in his and her breathing became regular. She is falling asleep, he thought.
He decided it was time to go when suddely he heard her whisper in her dreams, "I love you Kakashi." He stared at her in disbelief. Did she really love her or was it just a dream? Was she playing with him and pretending to sleep? He looked her over and was sure that she was resting. He felt her move closer and she shivered again. He securly wrapped his arms around her tighter and rested his chin on her head. "I love you to Sakura. I love you too." He closed his eyes and gave into the darkness that consumed him. This was where he wanted to be and this was where he was meant to be. In her arms.
In your arms I can just close my eyes
Feel you there sweetly dreaming
Time stops as I hear your breathing
Baby you're all that I could ever want
When we met you were so young
Just look at you now dear
You've conqured all that you fear
Just want to be with you this time
They all say that it is wrong
But I can't stop loving you
Just want to hear you say that too
Oneday I know that you will
Everyday we seemed to grow closer
You just always belonged to him
When with him you're eyes were so dim
He couuld never love you the way I do
Why can't they see you're my angel
Was so lonely until you came to me
Instead the age difference is all they see
But sweetheart don't cry, we'll make it
No more tears will you ever cry again
I will never abandon you or hurt you ever
If you're ever stuck call on me to be your lever
Cuz baby I'm not going anywhere without you
Me: Hoped you like it. By the way, I wrote the poem at the end…yes i write poems...felt sort of inspired...i know it sucks
Kakashi: (Grins) Shouldn't you be telling them about where we are?
Me: Oh yea, I'm in a fancy restaurant on my date with Kakashi. Can't wait to see his face!
Kakashi: Just enjoy yourself. It's a big honor to go out with me. You know, I don't go out with many girls.
Me: (Rolls eyes) I wonder if it has anything to do with the perverted books you read.
Kakashi: (Says sarcastically) You are so funny.
Me: (Grins) I know, everyone keeps telling me that.
Kakashi: So I was wondering if you were single.
Me: (disgusted face) EWWW!!! Kakashi likes me!!!!
Kakashi: I do not, I was just asking.
Me: Thank God!!! I was so worried that you were serious…although you aren't that bad looking.
Sakura: (Spying on us from the next booth with Sasuke, Naruto, and Ino) WHAT!!!!
Me: (Surprised) Where you watching us?
Naruto: We want to see Kakashi-sensei's face! It's not fair we've been begging to see it for so long, you suddenly come in, and he's going to let you see it!!!
Kakashi: (Grinning evilly) Maybe I like her better. (Sasuke, Sakura, Naruto, and Ino's mouths drop open)
Sasuke, Sakura, Naruto, and Ino: WHAT!!!!
Me: (Happy) Yah!!!
Kakashi: (Laughing) Hey, I'm going to go to the movies, want to come?
Me: (Smiles) Sure! (me and Kakashi walk off)
