"Uh!" Iruka cried out in pain as Darien finished stitching Irukas arm.

"Sorry Iruka. I`m almost done here" Darien said apologetically as he finished stitching Irukas arm.

"Again Iruka my dearest apologize" Darien again apologized.

"It's all right Darien, really it is. I`m fine." Iruka smiled reassuringly to Darien.

Darien took another look at Irukas stich on his arm

"Well, it should be better in about a couple of weeks" Darien informed Iruka.

Kakashi walked suddenly walked in the room

"Iruka how are you holding up?" Kakashi asked

"Fine, Darien here just got done stitching me back up" Iruka said

"Don't think I would have been alive if you didn't jump right between Darien's attack" Kakashi said jokingly said.

"Wouldn't that be a shame?" Darien sarcastically murmured to himself.

"Darien'? Mind if I come with you to and get Kagome?" Kakashi asked warily

Darien sighed "It wouldn't stop you if I said 'no' now would it?" Darien said as Kakashi smiled and shook his head

"Let's get going then, remember Iruka if the stiches on your arm start to bother you just put some ice on your arm" Darien instructed.

"Quit worrying Darien, I told you that I'm fine" Iruka said teasingly

"Well alright, okay Kakashi let's get going" Darien said

Darien and Kakashi walked silently to the classroom where Kagome was. As Kakashi and Darien walked in the classroom, they saw

Kagome on Sakuras lap drawing a picture.

"I look so cool!" Naruto exclaimed as he look at Kagomes drawing

Kagome looks up and saw Kakashi and her father.

"Look Kakashi I draw you too!" Kagome said as her Russian accent was heard.

Kakashi laughed at the drawing of Kakashi fighting.

"Isn't Kagome so talented?" Sakura said playfully as she soothed Kagomes hair.

"She certainly is. Kagome even got Narutos excitement in the drawing" Kakashi said teasingly as everyone began to laugh.

Kagome yawned then let out a small giggle.

"Looks like Baby doll is ready for a nap" Darien said as he took Kagome from Sakuras lap.

"Aww Kagomes tired" Sakura said as she rubbed Kagomes back.

As Kagome said her 'goodbyes' to Sakura, Naruto, and Saskue she had a firm grip onto Kakashis hand. Darien noticed this act. Kagome

didn't want Kakashi to leave. He was hers. Darien sighed at this thought.

"Kakashi, come with us back home" Kagome said with hopeful eyes.

"I would love to come with you, if that's alright with your father?" Kakashi asked as he looked over at Darien.

Kakashi did not want to spend another moment without his little Kagome.

"Sure, I don't see why not" Darien said, knowing if he said otherwise. Kagome would be unhappy.

Kagome reached out to Kakashi. Wanting Kakashi to carry Kagome instead of Darien. Kakashi took Kagome in his arms as they

continued to walk home. As they walked home Kagome fell asleep in Kakashis arms. As they reached Darien's home, Darien put his

arms out toward Kagome who was sleeping soundly.

"Oh, it's all right, I don't want to risk waking her up" Kakashi said

"Let's put her inside then" Darien said as they walked inside his home.

As Kakashi and Darien settled in the house, Kakashi put Kagome on the couch and she continued sleeping. Kakashi just stared at the \

sleeping angel he put to sleep.

"She's amazing" Kakashi whispered as he continued to look at Kagome as she slept peacefully.

"She is" Darien said as he put a blanket on top of Kagome

"So I'll be seeing you a lot know hugh?" Darien asked

Kakashi smiled and knelt down towards Kagome as he looked at Kagome with complete adoration.

"Only if Kagome allows it." Kakashi said as he touched her cheek lovingly.

"She can't stand to be without you. Kagome always asking when shell see you again." Darien said

Kakashi smiles and played with Kagomes hair. Kakashi was so happy that his Kagome liked so Kakashi so much.

"You really love Kagome don't you?" Darien asked slowly.

"More than my own life" Kakashi said as he kissed Kagomes forehead.
