Chapter seven: I've never felt this way

A/N: Okay, so now they've said 'I love you' to each other, yay! So… I figure it's about time for a little more torture ;) Here's Kakashi's diary for your enjoyment. Hope you'll like this chappy even though I might be prolonging your pain *wicked grin*
As always, a HUGE thank you for Mswan0117 for doing Beta on this, selfish reasons and all ;)
I do not own Naruto. I only own my own creativity (Though my mother would have you believe that is actually hers… Don't believe everything you hear, folks)

Dear Diary,
Gai is in love with me. He said it himself. He said it. That he's in love with me. Am I dreaming?
I probably am, right? Right. But he said it, and he said it calmly. He captured my arm and then he said it. That he's in love with me. I feel like I'm trapped in one of Kurenai's genjutsu. The ones she gives you when you haven't slept in god knows how long and she wants to help you relax. Only Kurenai would never create a genjutsu in which Gai says he loves me. So this isn't a genjutsu. And it isn't a dream. And I sure as hell hope it isn't a hallucination again. But I don't think so. I've been keeping up my fluids this time around, even though I felt like crap. So… This is… Real? It is, right? Right. It's real. He said he's in love with me. And I told him that I'm in love with him. And now it's on to happily ever after, right? Nah, probably not. Still… It's a good start, wouldn't you say, Diary?
I had to leave shortly after that, though. I think… No, I'm pretty sure I've given him a concussion. Flowers would have probably been nicer. But maybe a concussion represents our relationship better. I don't know. What do you think, Diary? If I'm completely honest with you – and I can be, can't I ?– I have to admit that it's actually a little funny to me. I went all caveman on the guy! I literally slammed him back against the wall over and over and gave him a freaking concussion! Very romantic, don't you think? Haha, probably not. But he still said he loves me…
He needs time to rest now. I so wish I could be there, but he doesn't want me to. So… We kind of agreed to go on a date together once he's feeling better. Can you believe it? A date! I don't think I've ever felt so giddy about a date before. Not even my very first one. Although… That was just Rin. A practice date, because neither of us had ever done anything like that before. I told you all about that, didn't I, Diary? I won't keep repeating myself, I know it bores you.
But this… A date with Gai! First date… Gosh, I feel like a little schoolgirl! What do I wear, do I bring him something? Where to take him? Or is he taking me somewhere? I have no idea, to be honest. I mean, usually the guy decides, right? Right. But… We're both 'the guy'. So who's taking whom on a date anyway? Does it really matter, though? I mean… It's Gai, for God's sake! Gai. Maito Gai. I love him so much…
K.
