Chapter 7
I got in my car and sat there for a minute before turning it on. My anger raged inside of me. I screamed, I couldn't hold it in any longer. Next I drove to Akinori's. Kino's car was there. I smirked and shut off the car and walked up to the door and knocked. Kino answered, that pissed me off. I rolled my eyes and shoved past her. Akinori sat on the couch. "What happened to you?"
"Nothing. But hey you don't have to be sad or angry or what ever you were now." He gave me a questioning look, much like Iruka's. "She's dead. Yeah, she, my daughter, is dead. Never coming back. Just like my dad I hope that you are fucking happy now!" Akinori got up and walked over to me.
"I am so..." he started.
"No I don't want your damn apologies, I wanted someone there for me. And that someone was supposed to be you. Guess what? Your not, I'm done. I'm over it." He tried to touch the cuts on my face and I smacked his hand away.
"Tell me, what happened to you." He said sternly.
"None of your damn business." I turned and walked out the door. Back to my car, back to Kyo, back to nothingness. I walked in to a silent house. Silence, the bliss of ignorance, the fuel I had used to run on. "Kyo?" I asked as I walked through the house. I walked to the bedroom to see everyone but Kakashi asleep. He walked out of the room and into the living room. "What is with you? How come your the only one ever awake and you always have these looks of reassurement or anything, your always there when I need you?" it was something I was going to have to get used to or get over. "I don't understand. It's something I've never had before. It's strange to me."
"I know, I know. Did Sasuke do this?" He said as he stroked around my wounds.
"Yeah but I kinda deserved it."
"No one deserves to be hit unless, well they hit someone first. Did you hit Sasuke?"
"No, but I told him I hated him. I asked him if this was how he showed his love. I also asked him if he had always been an emotionless asshole or if it just started after I was born."
"Oh, well you still didn't deserve that. We should probably take you to Sakura and have her fix that."
"Well see I was kind of already there to, but not about these wounds. I yelled at Akinori to, sort of." Kakashi rubbed his temple in frustration.
"Alright come with me. Let's see what we can do." We walked to the bathroom and he reached in the medicine cabinet, and grabbed the peroxide. "This is going to sting."
"I love how you don't say this isn't going to hurt a bit." I said with sarcasm.
"Well we both know this is going to hurt like a bitch. Pardon my french."
"I know quite a bit of french and that sound more like bitch to me then it did like anything in french." I had made him laugh. Good, goal reached.
"Ha-ha very funny, now you can't put make up on that." he smirked and put one of the big band-aids on my cheek. I laughed at just exactly how big it was. "Well I'm glad you're over your anger strike."
"I was really over it after I had went and yelled at my dad." He looked at me with sympathetic eyes. I looked at my watch it was nearly midnight. "Well I'm not going to go to bed for a long while, to much energy. Care to stay up and watch a movie with me?" I asked with a smile.
"Sure, lets leave the two of them in their room. What do you have in mind for a movie?"
"I was thinking something that will scare the bajesus out of me. If you have something that will even startle you, it will scare me so bad that I pee my pants." I made the a in pants sound more like an ah then an a, but I didn't care right now, I wanted to laugh and cry and scream and just die. So I settled on a scary movie, it makes almost all of those things happen. He snickered at my comment and headed for the movie cupboard.
"Hmm, what do we have that will scare you? How about the Strangers, have you seen that one yet?"
"Nope, but it sounds creepy."
"It made me jump the first time I watched it so you might want to go and grab a teddy bear or something before I start it." He said as he grabbed the movie and went to put it in. He didn't have to tell me twice, I went into the bedroom and grabbed my favorite blanket and my body pillow. I sat down next to Kakashi who had managed to get some popcorn popped before I had gotten back out here.
"Yummy!" I said as I caught wind of the apple cinnamon flavoring.
"Just the way you like it, right?" he asked.
"Yes sir!" I grabbed the bowl of popcorn from him and shoved a handful in my mouth. God this tastes so good. I wonder if she would have shared my liking for this type of popcorn. Thoughts of what she would have been like kept running through my head. I shook my head as the salted water ran down my flushed cheek from the heat of the blanket.
"Sit and I'll start the movie." I did as I was told and he kept up his end of the deal. I smiled at the beginning and toward the end of the movie the popcorn had ended up all around me and Kakashi. He jumped every now and then but I'm guessing it was only because I had a death grip on his arm and every time I jumped I squeezed his arm. But for now the thoughts of my daughter, depression and anger were subsided.
