AN: This chapter is the winning chapter. Wonder what would happen? Lemon or just plain horrible? We will see. Just remember they are just 16-17 so don't expect much.

Chapter 7 Night?

Kakashi stood there, utterly confused by Anko's actions. He felt every inch of his body stiffen as she walked closer to him. She got close enough and pushed him to her couch. His eyes were wide open, still stiff, not knowing what to do next. He snapped out of it and asked, "Anko, what are you doing?"

She sat down next to him and looked into his eyes, "We need to talk."

"What about?"

"Orochimaru! Why did assign Asuma and Kurenai to him?"

"Didn't I explain to you before?" as he shook his head.

"Well, you only explained it to me briefly. I want to know the REAL reason and WHY."

He titled his head downwards, "What's in it for me?"

She pushed him back and yelled, "NOTHING! YOU ARE SUCH A PERV!"

"Wow, not in that way. You dirty-minded young lady."

She blushed slightly, "Whatever, Continue."

"Fine…" The room all of a sudden got quiet. The ticks on the clock as each passing second entered the body vigorously, leaving a slight shiver after every second wasted.

Anko slapped Kakashi across the face and said, "I don't have time for this! SPEAK UP!"

He placed his hand on his face, where she just had slapped him. He made it looked like it hurt, but really it didn't. He took a couple more seconds before speaking, then finally, "I didn't send you after Orochimaru is because…"

Silent pierced the room again, like sharp daggers trying to dig into their skin. Anko hated the silent, she felt so alone, like once again being abandoned in a dark, lonely cave, it pierced her soul over and over again. Never planning it to leave as she held Orchimaru's "Cruse Mark", she broke the silence, "Because…?"

"Because, I will never live it down if I lose another soul close to me. If I lose you, I would never let go of the pain that will bring. Just like when my Sensei and teammates passed. I was so lost, and I don't want to feel the same pain."

Anko sat there, shocked and nearly breathless; defiantly motionless. Kakashi continued, "I know I am being selfish, but… I can't just lose you."

Anko collapsed from lack of oxygen; Kakashi admittedly rose up and caught her before she can hit the ground. He saw her face pale as ever, he started to worry. Then he went to check her pulse, but thankfully her pulse is normal. He thought to himself she is probably just tired from all the news today and mostly the attack that Shisui gave us. Maybe I am just being selfish, but I surely don't want to lose her. I guess I would have to think quickly on my feet during the investigation. I can't face if I don't have a plan ready, but this is the best that can happen for the mean time. He gentally lifted her up from the ground. Then he wrapped her arm around his neck, carrying her the bridal way. He opened the door to her bedroom and made his way to her bed. He laid her on her bed and sat next to her. He admired the beauty that her face carries.

She regained her conscious and found Kakashi sitting next to her. She then notice that they were in her bedroom, she sat up quickly and slapped him on the arm.

He yelled in pain and muttered, "What was that for?"

"You were touching me, weren't you!"

"I was doing no such. You fainted so I carried you to your room for you to sleep! But no you accuse me for 'touching'."

She was shocked by what he said, but she stayed conscious this time, "Thanks buddy, but seriously. You look like a pervert sitting there looking at me."

"Says you, well it's almost nine. I guess I'll get going; I still need to prepare for the mission. See you tomorrow Anko." He left smiling and waving. Something light up in her soul, it seems like she may let yet another person into her heart. She heard the door close, so she decided to doze off for the upcoming mission.

Kakashi's pov:

Man, it's getting alittle cold. I sense a chakra presents… an uchiha. He seems to be tailing me, what does he want? Does he know about my eyes? Oh god a kunai. That was a close call, but for sure it is an uchiha. Guess only one thing to do.

3rd person:

Kakashi took out some custom made senbon he carried around with him for situations like this one. It has a poison on the tip of it with a thin rubber stopper. Once the senbon hits the target the hot air would have melted the rubber allowing the poison to travel in one's body. The poison triggers the chakra system, which makes the person, feel like all their chakra is gone in an instant. Making the enemy exhausted enough to collapse but not fully kill them.

Kakashi took one out and threw it in the direction of the attacker. In the dark night the enemy won't see the senbon flying through the air, even if their sharingan is activated. Kakashi heard a yelp of pain, so he took this opportunity to remain in the shadow and head home.

He made his way home without any other attacks. He was slightly suspicious, why would an uchiha attack a leaf comrade? He pushed the thought aside, he walked to his bedroom; completely ignoring his "Icha Icha" collection. He pushed his bedroom door open and just fell to his bed. He then got up and changed into comfortable cloths; a baggy shirt and boxers. He dipped his head into his soft, fluffy pillow. Admiring the comfort it gives when he is exhausted. He lay there, recapping what happened during this wild and unexpected day. He got hit three times by Anko, being called Anko's boyfriend around five times, got around 4 hugs from Anko… but the most surprising that never happened to him, two passionate kiss from his best friend. He closed his eyes in sigh of relief that she's okay. He slept soundly forgetting to set his alarm clock.
