"there we go kaka-chan all set" rin puffed out as they finnished setting all of kakashi's things up in her new room.
"yeah thanks rin it would have taken much longer if you didnt already have the things from my old apartment set up"kakashi replied also tired from the exertion
"thanks for that by the way and also letting me live here" even though she couldn't see it rin knew kakashi was smiling and very happy.
"no problems kaka-chan i want you here this big house can get a bit boring sometimes the sandaime also thinks its a good idea for your recuperation, and dont worry about your room that was one of the brats team first missions ." Rin says with a wave of her hand leaving the room with kakashi following her to make dinner.
"naruto-kun's team ? who's on it anyway you never speak about him when will he be home i cant wa"
"wow wow easy kaka-chan haha for someone who is always so easy going you sure go hyper when ever naruto is mentioned, the reason i dont talk about him to you is 1 you had to focus on getting better and 2 it would spoil the bonding between you, so learn when you meet him some time tonight as for his team they are both 13 they are Hana Inuzuka and Kyo Hyuga as for his sensai it is Kusumi Utatane oldest grandaughter of Koharu Utatane"
"i remember her didn't we babysit her how old is she now 16?" kakashi asked skeptically
"almost right she turned 17 the day naruto passed his gennin exam, when asked what she wanted from Koharu-sama as a birthday gift she said she wanted to be a sensai ,specifically Naruto's team, Koharu easily persuaded hiruzen-sama after all Kusumi has become an elite jounin " rin explains not understanding kakashi's calculating eye
" i see as long as she can keep him safe , i still want to meet her to make sure she has the best intentions for naruto also the free time he has as i want in on his training" kakashi says
"i wouldnt worry about her intentions as i said before she is very skilled and smart also from what i gather from Tsumi-sama Hana is home long before Naruto as Kusumi is trying to get his skills upto par with his team mates also from what i gather they all get along great" Rin says with a shrug of the shoulders.
a silence settled in as the food was prepared when Rin only placed 2 plates on the table Kakashi asked about Naruto eating with them,
" He hasn't eaten here in months he either eats with his team at one of ther homes or eats with Kusumi. poor them is all i can say the brat eats like a pig and eats just as much" rin says only half joking .
"I see has Kusumi even been to speak to you something just doesnt seem right about this"
"stop worrying kaka-chan yes she has come a few times whilst at the hospital and spoke of her intentions and hopes for Naruto just wait till you speak to her before you send that Hataki brain in to meltdown overthinking everything just relax not everyone has a grudge against the kyubi " rin says in a huff
"you mean naruto not the kyubi right?"
"of corse".
later
Around 10pm that evaning the front door opened to reveal a dirty 5.0 ft tall blond looking around the entrance to his manor just when he thinks its ok to go straight the his room for a bath and then bed the door to the living room opened to reveal a young woman looking at him with a wide grey coloured eye, it wasnt like most stares he recieved this was mostly shock with a little nervesness behind it but the most shocking to him was the amount of warmth coming from them.
" " Naruto says a little unsure of himself
"yo its nice to finally meet you i'm Kakashi Hataki i was a student of your father and i'm going to be living here from now on as a warden oh and thanks for the picture by the way" kakashi says with a smill almost wide enough to tare her mask,
" the kakashi the smoking man was talking about with the scr" quickly remembering that Rin maybe neerbye cut off the last part not wanting the smiling woman in front of him to get in trouble."what picture are you talking about Kakashi-sama?"
"now now not of that Naruto-kun just kaka-chan or neechan if you prefer as for the picture its of you blushing up a storm with your new head band" kakashi laughs seeing the blush coming back on his face
"oh that picture. Kusumi sensai said she had two copys one for herself and one for Rin-sama,
i thaught she may have threw it away."
'threw away ? hasn't she mentioned me at all to him' for the first time kakashi looked around the rooms she could see 'not one picture of Naruto that i can see , i will get to the bottom of this later.
"no silly she gave it me to help me get better i'm surprised she hasn't mentioned me to you though oh well i can see you need a bath how about you go get one and thenwe'll get to know each other better ok" kakashi spoke with an eye smile to reasure Naruto.
Naruto looked down with abright pink blush on his face "ok kakashi-sa sorry kaka-chan?"
"thats better run along now oh have you eaten"
"yes thankyou Kusumi sensai made me a huge meal" naruto answered a little shocked at the care in her voice ,
as naruto started to his room he was thinking about how is life was improving so much lately first with scroll that let him pass the gennin exam then came his team mates who he was really getting along with even there family's were nice to him , then came the brightest part of his life his sensai though he had only known her a relativily short time she was his everything she was his sensai,mother,sister and most importantly his best friend, and now it seems he has another precious person coming into his life if how quickly he felt at ease with her was anything to go by,
Naruto wouldn't have gotten very far in life he didn't get good at reading people which he is unparalleled ,even though he could only see her eye he new all about her mood and feelings including the fake smile at the end.
downstairs
Kakashi had just re-entered the living room to see Rin reading a book
"Naruto-kun is home" kakashi tells her old team mate
"oh-ok" rin nods not looking away from the book
"Rin why are there no pictures of Naruto and why didn't you tell him about me"
outside Namikazi estate
'So Kakashi is awake and living in my home i wonder what she thinks of me now because of my sins probably the same as me i hope you can make my baby boy happy were i can't '
the green eyes move from the living room window to the bedroom were the light has just switched on seeing the embodiment of her pain and greatest shame
'look at you 10 years old looking more like Minato everyday if you were dead would i feel this pain or would it kill me, i dont know why i torture myself spying on you,you are my failed family i have a new happy one now so why '
with a sigh she leaves to give her report to the sandaime as she see's Naruto enter his bathroom.
Naruto's room
as he switches on his light he can feel her there again watching him from a nearby rooftop as long as he can remember she has been watching him just that. long has he given up the hope of her coming for him to take him away from the village that hates him she is nothing to him now birth mother or not she is a tranger Rin had told him many times he sent his mother away almost insane for caring about him she also took great pleasure in telling him about her new family in the land of wirlpool 2 little girls he had been told
'lets hope you do better with them kushina'
with that he got his bath stuff and shut the door feeling her leave
'who needs you anyway'
