Kosuke's POV

I shook my head, but laughed along with her. She grinned, and then looked over to the other people around us.

"So, after we get back from the bathhouse, who's up for a sleepover at my house?" she asked everyone there.

Kakashi sighed, and mumbled, "Uh oh."

I laughed, and replied to Amaya, "I'm up for it. A night of relaxing and fooling around with friends? Heck yes!"

Sasuke smirked and said, "I'll be there."

Lee smiled one of those giant smiles that makes you wonder how anything but his mouth can possibly fit on his face and said enthusiastically, "I will be there! There is nothing more youthful than a sleepover!"

"Actually I was kinda gonna see if Hinata wanted to do anything tonight," Naruto told us, grinning sheepishly and rubbing the back of his neck.

"Bring her if you want," Amaya told him.

"Really? All right!" Naruto exclaimed, pumping his fist in the air.

A few of us giggled at his excitement. Sakura looked at Amaya and said, "I don't think I can. My parents will probably want me home, after this last mission."

I almost felt guilty after she said that, thinking of my father and how he probably would want me home, but then I shrugged. After the bathhouse I would go home and hang out with him for an hour or so before the party if he wanted. Then I would go to Amaya's later.

"All right," Amaya said to her. It was obvious that she didn't really care if Sakura was there or not.

"All right, I will see you all later my youthful friends! I must go train now!" Lee declared, and he jumped into the air and twirled around, landing on his hands. He began running away like this, and we heard him say to himself, "If I cannot walk from here to the training fields on my hands ten times then I will do two thousand pushups!"

"Later!" Naruto said, and ran off in the direction of the Hyuuga mansion.

Sakura waved to us and walked off slowly. I kind of felt bad for her, but when I looked back and saw Sasuke giving Amaya a good-bye kiss, I didn't feel as bad. Sure Sakura wasn't happy, but both Amaya and Sasuke were, and they were two people who aren't always able to find happiness. Oh well, I thought, and shrugged, there are plenty of guys in Konoha.

After the kiss, Sasuke waved to the rest of us, and walked off to who-knows-where.

Kakashi sighed, and rubbed the back of his neck.

"I suppose this means I should go home and make sure that the house is at least somewhat presentable for people. And I have a report to write. So I guess I'll see you both at home. Later," he said, waving.

"Yeah, later Dad," Amaya said, not paying much attention to him, and just walking.

"Bye Kakashi," I told him, and then hurried to catch up with Amaya.

As soon as Kakashi was out of sight, Amaya turned on me.

"So, you're getting cozy with my old man, huh?" she said with a mischievous glimmer in her eyes.

"'Getting cozy with your old man?' What are you talking about?" I asked, looking down to hide a slight blush.

It didn't work very well, because she nudged me with her elbow, and replied, "You know exactly what I mean! You've got the hots for Kakashi!"

I rolled my eyes and exclaimed, "I do not! Kakashi and I are just friends, that's all! I needed to hang out with someone while you were gone, and somehow he was always the one available!"

Most people would have felt guilty at that statement, but no, not Amaya. Instead she said, "Oh please! Kosuke, you still suck at lying!"

I glared at her and said, "I'm not lying!"

"Oh yeah you are!" she responded, laughing at me.

"Well at least I don't have a liar's squeak!" I told her, pointing at her.

She gasped and squeaked, "I do not have a liar's squeak!"

"Then what was that?" I asked her.

She paused, but then said, "That was…an 'I can't believe you just said that!' squeak!"

I rolled my eyes at her, but couldn't help but let out a laugh. She began laughing too, and that ended that conversation, which I was happy about.

We talked about random things until we got to the bathhouse, and once we got inside I was very happy to see that no one else was there but her and me. The idea of bathing with other women in there to see my scars was not one I enjoyed at all. I had been very happy when Tsunade hadn't asked me about them. Though I did wonder if that was because she figured they were normal mission scars, or if she had guessed and put the scars with the pregnancy and figured it out. However, I was not about to ask her that question. I was fine with her ignoring them.

Amaya and I soaked for just about and hour, and then finally left the bathhouse, feeling refreshed and very clean. As we left the bathhouse I noticed that the sky was getting fairly dark, so we began to hurry. Soon we split up, her going to her house to prepare for everyone, and me to my own. When I got there I found my father sitting on the couch in the living room, reading a book. It was one of his few moments of relaxation, and I didn't want to intrude, but when he saw me, he smiled and invited me to sit with him. Misa was out doing errands and getting her hair done, so it was just the two of us for once. We sat together and simply talked for about an hour and a half. I told him about my last mission, and he told me about his, and other than that, we didn't really talk about ninja topics. However, it was a nice little talk, and was almost sorry to end it when I told him I had to go.

"So you're going to Amaya's house for the night?" he asked me, walking me to the door. He seemed a little worried about this, and I could tell he didn't trust her anymore. I shrugged; I could understand that.

"Yep. She's having a sleepover," I replied, as I made sure I had all of my ninja gear secure. Hey, you never know when you might need a kunai! Especially lately, I realized.

"Are there going to be boys there?" he asked. Obviously he still couldn't grasp the fact that I "didn't know who the father of my baby was."

I rolled my eyes, but didn't let him see.

"Yeah Dad, there will be a few guys there. But hey, I'm all ready pregnant, so there's no worries," I joked, but this didn't seem to help my dad out any. So I tried a different tactic. "Look Dad, Amaya's dad is gonna be there the whole time, okay? That's the Kakashi Hatake. Nobody's going to do anything while he's around," I lied. Kakashi didn't really seem to care what anybody did, and truthfully, part of the reason I was so excited to go was that I wanted to see him.

However, it seemed to work, because though my father still looked skeptical, he said, "Well, all right I suppose. Have fun, and be good."

"I will Dad," I told him, and then hugged him good-bye.

I practically ran to the Hatake residence, and when I got there I could tell that I was the last to show up. Even from the outside, I could tell that most of the lights were on in the house, and I could hear muffled noises from inside. I quickly walked up to the door and let myself into the house. After all, it seemed that I lived there almost as often as Amaya did.

Once I walked in, the noises got much louder. I could hear loud music coming from up the stairs, and I could hear a bunch of people moving around up there. I walked farther into the house, and saw Kakashi sitting in the living room, reading one of his Icha Icha books.

"Hey Kosuke," he said without turning around.

"Hey Kakashi," I said to him, walking over to the couch where he sat.

"Everybody's upstairs in Amaya's room," he told me.

"Thanks," I said, then asked, "How can you concentrate on that book with all this noise?"

He looked up now, and I could tell that he smiled because his single eye squinted together.

"It's a very good book," he told me, "Very good. It takes more than just some noise to make me look up from it. A lot more."

"Oh. I guess I can understand that," I said to him, being the bookworm that I am. "Anyway, I'd better get upstairs."

"Have fun," he told me, and looked back at his book as I left the room.

I smiled to myself as I walked up the stairs, wondering how I ever really hated that man. He was just so…different than I ever thought.

I shook my head to rid myself of thoughts of Kakashi as I opened the door to Amaya's room.

Amaya's POV:

Okay, so if I thought that my room was a little crowded the first sleep over, this was just a weeee bit more crowded. Luckily, with Sasuke holding a death grip on my hips and not letting me off his lap, and Naruto following suit with Hinata, there was a little more room. I was a little disappointed that Gaara wasn't here; I had some apologizing to do there. Maybe five years worth of apologizing.

Lee was currently using the wooden pole in my closet to do crunches in the air, and his face was already red. Hinata was staying put, comfortable on Naruto's lap, the deep blush on her face giving it away. I didn't regret inviting her; she was pretty cool once you got to know her. Guess I just never did.

Naruto had his arms around her, holding on to the XBox controller as he peered over his shoulder. He was playing a racing game, but losing. To who? Me of course! Bwahahaha! I had missed my games. When I got home they were the first things I got into. Then Naruto came with Hinata, Kakashi invited them in..... I was busy.

So when Naruto walked in and saw me playing he instantly wanted to play, and of course since I'm so nice, I let him. He's on a losing streak 2 to 23. Sasuke was next to show up, he didn't need Kakashi to invite him in, he just sorta...appeared. Hey, who was I to complain?

Well, I sorta complained when he showed up and wouldn't leave me alone and made me lose two games in a row. I shut him up by sitting in his lap. Made things much easier. Lee was next, leaving Kosuke last. When Lee showed up, he went to cheering Naruto and I on. That is until I pointed out that usually people only cheer for one team.

"But I cannot chose between my dear sister and friend!" he exclaimed, walking over to my closed to start his training. I told everyone that when Kosuke got there we would go downstairs and bring back something to eat.

When I heard her downstairs I smirked when I heard her talk to Kakashi before coming all the way up. With Ookami, I heard the whole conversation. So when Kosuke came in I laughed at her, not bothering to take my eyes off the game as I did so too.

"You are so beyond blond my dumb friend," I informed her, making her scowl.

"Why do you say that?" she asked me, and I took a chance on a straightaway to look at her, my golden eyes filled with mischief.

Only when Sasuke turned my attention back to the game did I notice he saved me from missing a turn and hitting a tree. Righting myself I explained, "When you were downstairs talking with Kakashi, you completely missed the compliment/flirting that he did!" I exclaimed, passing the finish line and turning my whole attention to her. "When you guys were talking about his book, he told you that it took A LOT to make him look up from it. Obviously he was talking about you! You made him look up from the book no?" I smirked at the blush I created, "Hm, knew it." I murmured before taking Sasuke's hands off my hips. He scowled and I rolled my eyes, "Jashin, I'm getting food for us all! It's gonna be your fault if we starve."

I walked downstairs with Kosuke, and with out looking up from the book Kakashi asked, "What are you two doing?" he asked, turning a page.

"Making something for dinner, we're all starving," I answered, making my way into the kitchen. I had to compliment Kakashi; he did a good job getting the house picked up. I turned to look at Kosuke, "You know," I whispered, and evil grin on my face, "I could talk about you and Kakashi right here and now, loud enough for the whole house to hear. I bet that'll make him look up from his book." I let out a laugh, pulling a pan out of the cupboard and putting it on the stove before filling it with water.

Kosuke scowled at me, deciding to ignore what I said. "What are you cooking?"

I looked down at the food in my hands before smiling, "What do you think?" I asked with a coy grin.

She rolled her eyes, knowing it was ramen, before getting out the stuff we would need after the noodles were cooked. Seasoning, bowels, cups, and chopsticks. While waiting for the water to come to a boil I opened up the fridge and stole my most favorite food besides ramen, well, I could call it my favorite fruit then.

"What are you doing Amaya?" she asked me, and I turned around, tossing the fruit in the air before catching it again.

"Before I got home I went and got some food," I told her, lightly brushing my fingers over my kunai pouch were a stash of brand new pixie-sticks were. "I got this for the party tonight, just for Sasuke and I," I added, biting into the tomato like an apple.

Kosuke made a face, "You guys can have them," she wined, shuddering.

I just smirked, "I plan to."

When I noticed that the water was now on a boil I put the noodles in, occasionally stirring with the wooden spoon. I looked up at Kosuke, now serious. "Sasuke's asked me to live with him."

Kosuke looked only a bit shocked, "He has a home?" she joked lightly, I knew for a fact that she didn't even know where it was.

I nodded, "At the Uchiha manor."

"Go for it," she told me, I raised an eyebrow at her.

"You really think I'm ready to move all my shit to another house. I mean, I don't have to worry about Kakashi anymore," I added with a smile, "You're here for that."

Kosuke rolled her eyes, "I know you're ready, in fact, I'm damn positive," she told me, grinding down the seasoning into a fine powder. Ramen was so much better homemade.

I scowled; leave it to Kosuke to take news like this so positively. I had known Kosuke wanted Sasuke and I to get together for a long time, one of the reasons I didn't tell her. "Dad!" I called out, an evil smile appearing on my face. "Your girlfriend's being retarded!"

Kosuke glared at me and I knew she was going to hit me; she had her fist raised and everything. But a hand firmly grasped hers and I smirked sadistically. "Kosuke, what are you doing?" Kakashi asked her, a smirk on his face.

"I was just talking to Amaya," Kosuke said, an evil grin on her face. My face went pale.

"And?" Kakashi pressed.

"She's planning on moving in with Sasuke."
