Fantasies in the Night Chapter 10, a naruto fanfic

Her eyes widened slightly in alarm when she felt his lips brush her own as he growled, "I don't like being ignored."

Uzu bristled a little bit and then head butted him. Kakashi yelped as his head snapped back on his neck and staggered back before Uzu's hand connected with his cheek.

The loud crack of flesh striking flesh ringing in his ears as she snarled. "I don't give a damn what you like buddy. If I don't want to answer you then tough. Now sit down before I toss your sorry ass off my terrace and finish what gravity started!"

Kakashi sat across Uzu eating his dinner in a sullen silence as he mulled over what had happened in the kitchen earlier.

He'd never been hit by a female before. And while Uzu's anger might have been more understandable to him if she had at least explained herself after striking him, at the moment she was ignoring him again.

Something that didn't sit well with him. Not one damned little bit. He felt that she at least owed him an explination for why she had hit him, but after how she'd acted earlier; he was extremely wary of asking her anything.

She finished eating her dinner and glanced at him to see if he was done yet and made an irritated sound when she saw that he'd been playing with his food for the past few minutes.

He looked at her. She glared at him and looked like she was about to strike him again. He got the message and stopped playing with his food in favor of eating it before he suffered anymore consequences of her ire and finished in record time before pushing his plate away.

Uzu picked it up and was leaving the room to put the dishes in the sink when Kakashi finally found his tongue. "Why did you hit me?" He asked in a curious almost child like manner. The way he asked the question grabbed Uzu's attention, causing her to stop in mid step and turn around to look at him.

He couldn't be serious. There was just no way for a grown man not to know what he had done wrong.

"You must be pulling my leg or something."

"I'm not." Kakashi said firmly, feeling just a little bit insulted that Uzu would think that he was joking with her. He was dead serious. He wanted to know why she had hit him. Just what about that was supposed to be a joke?

"Kakashi... Why don't you try telling me what you think happened earlier?"

"I think you hit me because you have anger problems."

Uzu's eye twitched a little bit. That cheeky son of a bitch! How dare he. How dare he pin her to her fridge and growl at her like an animal and not expect retaliation. Then of all things he had the audacity to say that she had an anger problem.

"Keep talking boy, and you'll have to start sleeping with one eye open." Uzu hissed before turning around and stomping into the kitchen and dumping the dishes into her sink then stomping back out of the kitchen and headed for her bedroom to get ready to turn in for the night. Leaving Kakashi sitting at the table wondering once again what he'd done wrong.

Later that night Kakashi stood outside of Uzu's bedroom watching the woman sleep with her Ipod headphones on. The faint glow of the bedside lamp illuminating her vulnerable features as she slept.

He'd been giving himself a headache for the past three hours trying to figure out what he'd done to piss her off and while he didn't particularly think that he'd done anything so terrible. She obviously thought other wise.

Which was why she had holed up in her room after dinner and ignored him up until she'd fallen asleep.

He'd come here to her door way intending to have it out with her and find out why'd she hit him, but now that he saw her laying curled up on her side with the head phones covering her ears, her long ash blond hair fanning out across her royal blue satin pillow.

He sighed and silently pushed the door open and slipped inside of her room, automatically noticing that her room was the most barren room in the house. There were no mirrors over the small vanity across the way, no traces of color aside from the sheets on the bed.

No pictures were hung on her wall. No knick knacks or personal effects of any kind were anywhere in the room. There was no personal touches. No sense of home. It was as if she didn't care whether or not she felt at home in her own room.

He found it just a little bit strange that her room was the most impersonal room in the whole damn apartment.

He walked over to where she was laying and very gently removed the headphones from her ears and set them and the Ipod on the table next to the bed and very quietly pulled the covers up over her shoulder then turned off the light then left the room.

He was half way back to his room when he heard a loud bang outside of Uzu's front door and frowned. Who the devil would be coming by Uzu's apartment at nearly twelve at night. There was another bang on the apartment door followed by a loud, "Uzu you bitch, come out here now and face me!"

Worried that the person yelling might wake Uzu up, Kakashi made his way to the door and unlocked it and opened the door a crack and was pushed back when someone shoved the door open so hard that it banged into the wall enough to crack the plaster and stormed into the apartment.

"It's about fucking time you answered the door you little slut. I don't know what took you so fucking long, but your going to suffer for making me wait-" An angry masculine voice snarled as a young man with spikey jet black hair and violent dark eyes, wearing a bandage over the bridge of his nose, and a black t-shirt and dark jeans turned to look at Kakashi before stopping cold and snapping.

"Who the fuck are you?"

Kakashi tilted his head to the side and studied the disrespectful male with a predatory expression on his face. He hadn't much liked the way that the young male had spoken. He hadn't much liked the way he'd called Uzu a bitch or a slut either.

A thought occured to him, that this male may be Uzu's lover or mate. But as soon as that thought crossed his mind, he ruthlessly pushed it aside as another thought occured to him. That this male may be why Uzu didn't seem to like men.

And that angered him. Greatly.
