"What eyes can't see"

Kakashi stared down at his lap mournfully and dejected. Even though his favorite TV show was on, somehow it seemed like the television wasn't even on. He felt so heavyhearted and somehow crestfallen. The day went on like nothing. It felt like, when you forwarding a movie, yet you sit there all day unmoving, not even twitching a finger. Kakashi kept having flashbacks of Naruto's words, the way He slapped him roughly. Kakashi grimaced not wanting to remember the slap...nothing...

"what happened ..i taught my son not to ever give up..ever..didn't I..One moment he's trying his hardest and then the next he's giving up..why?..Naruto..i don't understand"

Kakashi looked at Iruka who was busy cooking, waiting For Naruto to come home so they could all eat.

(flashback)

Kakashi didn't even turn to see Naruto as he stopped right in front of the school dropping him off

'' get out'' he said without a hint of regret in his tone. Naruto finally after a long time opened his eyes revealing beautiful sad blue orbs

Kakashi closed his eyes not wanting to see and listened to Naruto get off the car slowly shutting the door. Kakashi watched him walk away sadly into the school the drove away.

(other flashback)

Suddenly Naruto jolt as he felt something tingling in his cheek it hurt like hell the sound of skin being slapped bounced off the walls. Naruto's lips parted as he slowly reached to touch his cheek his head remained turned from the slap. Iruka gasped and began making his way towards Naruto when Naruto stopped him

'' Don't touch me '' he whispered his eyes remained shut

'' don't..''

both Kakashi and Iruka's eyes widen . Kakashi turned away from Naruto, afraid he'd start crying himself

'' no son of mine..gives up..'' stated Kakashi clenching his fist

Naruto cradled his cheek feeling the after affect of the harsh slap

'' then...(Naruto turned his head sightly towards Kakashi) ...then I guess im not your son '' he responded. Kakashi turned to his son watching as the print marks of his fingers were perfectly drawn on his soft cheek and felt a great guilt overwhelm his senses. Kakashi turned to the door.

Kakashi suddenly felt something wet on his hand and gently brought his fingers to his cheeks. Only to realize

"he was crying"
