The next morning was Nagare's first day back to school.

Naruto had told Kakashi that he didn't want to be seen with his brother, but later reluctantly emerged from the same car as his criminal brother to go to school.

"You can go ahead," Naruto said.

Nagare quickly realized Naruto's intentions.

"What? You don't want to be seen with me?"

"That's right, and believe it," Naruto snapped. "I don't want to even know you."

"You fucking bastard," Nagare turned around to confront Naruto. "I'm really trying to just get together with my life and I….you…..you bitch…" Nagare trailed off, unable to say anything more.

Kakashi walked in between the two brothers to prevent any more fighting.

"You shouldn't have pulled the trigger in the first place! You have no idea at all how you destroyed our family!" Naruto yelled back from behind Kakashi.

Nagare turned and tried to look behind Kakashi to yell back at his brother, but Kakashi made sure that neither brother made eye contact with each other.

"I'm sorry you fucking idiot! I told you that I'm sorry! Just…just….I want to be accepted for who I am right now! Not for what I did…."

Naruto's jaw clenched. "You can't change what you did!"

"Naruto," Kakashi simply said. "Nagare."

The two of them shut up.

"Please," Kakashi said stiffly.

"Kakashi?" Anko asked, stepping into his room, noticing Kakashi's head on his desk. "Kakashi, are things alright?"

"Everything's good," Kakashi replied, talking to the desk.

Anko said nothing, knowing he was lying. "Nagare was recently admitted into my class."

"Oh well, that too," Kakashi said.

Kakashi felt her hand rest on his shoulder.

"I think…it's time to step down," Anko said.

"I know," Kakashi said. "I should….but….he's like a son to me…I can't…"

Anko squeezed his shoulder. "At least let me help. Have them stay with me for a while. I can help."

"No," Kakashi declined. "I…I don't want to bother you. Besides, everything is under control."

Anko said nothing.

Kakashi sighed and looked up at her, eyes weary.

"Actually I'm…a bit….defeated," he finally admitted.

Anko looked down at him for a long time before hugging him.

Kakashi gladly accepted her embrace and returned it, but tightened his arms around her body, squeezing her against him as though he was trying to release the stress he had.

"Don't forget to take care of yourself," Anko said.

Kakashi breathed in and moved his head off her shoulder, looking directly at her.

Anko put a hand on his cheek and Kakashi closed his eyes and turned his head toward her hand so that his lips caressed her fingers, kissing her fingers.

Kakashi took one arm off his tight embrace around her and took her wrist, kissing her hand, and eventually placed her hand on the back of his neck while he leaned in to capture her lips with his own.

Anko tilted her head up to allow his kiss to settle on her.

The tip of Kakashi's tongue slipped out of his mouth to lick and coax Anko's open. Once he gained access, he closed her mouth fully over hers and continued their passionate kiss, backing her body into the white board, ignorant of the eraser shelf on the bottom of the whiteboard that kept her hips bent toward him.

Kakashi knew he was the dominant one in the kiss, because Anko only went along with whatever Kakashi did.

A cold hard fact hit him.

He suddenly withdrew, leaving her gasping for air and lips glossy with moisture. She looked as though she had no idea what had just happened to her.

Kakashi stepped back. "I can't…oh god….I can't….I'm…" Kakashi stepped further back from Anko, though his arms still wanted to keep her close to him. "I'm…with….his mother…"

Anko stared speechlessly at him and Kakashi looked away, unable to make eye contact. He saw Anko slowly step out of his classroom, sensing that it was a good time to leave.

Once she did so, Kakashi slumped back down into his chair and rubbing his hands on his face, hoping that maybe the stress would brush away.

So there's the KakashiAnko that I had promised...hm another twist....

I love how you guys have absolutely no idea where this story is going....any predictions...?
