DO NOT FEAR!! FLUFF IS COMING VERRRRYYYYYYYYYYY SOON!!

OH, AND THANK YOU (oops, forgot the caps lock was still on) anyway thank for all of the reveiws, i feel soo happy!

Kakashi and the Hokage walk to his office in silence. Kakashi was still bothered by what Amaya told him and what Sasuke had told before he spoke with Amaya. The Hokage takes a seat behind his desk with a groan. "Well," he starts, "she probably won't be participating in the chunin exams," Kakashi looks up, his brow furies,

"Nani?"

"The chunin exams are starting a week from tomorrow, there's no way she'll be able to heal in time and participate." Kakashi's face falls slightly, he really wanted to see all of his students do well in the exams.

"Wakatta," he whispers in disappointment.

"Kakashi, is there anything else?" Sarutobi asks.

"Huh? Oh, iie."

"Then you are dismissed,"

"Hai," Kakashi bows and leaves. Sarutobi looks at the manila file on his desk. He opens it and sees the ANBU picture of Yoshitake Makoto. His name would be added to the KIA stone and he needed a funeral, but the Hokage would wait to mention it until Amaya has rested some more is able to move more than just an arm. He closes the folder, turns around in his chair and looks out the window at the rising sun. A lot had to be done.

Kakashi enters his apartment house and removes his Jonin vest and tosses it onto the floor and flops onto the crouch with a groan. Why was he still bothered by this? Why did Amaya's emotionless…annoy him? Kakashi groans again and gets up from the couch and makes his way to the kitchen. And about what Sasuke told him…

"Kakashi-sensei" Kakashi glances over his shoulder and sees Sasuke standing with his hands in his pockets. They had just finished visiting Amaya who had gotten out of surgery a few minutes ago. She was still unconscious and the visit was a very short one. Kakashi closes the door to her room and turns to properly face his dark eyed student.

"What is it Sasuke?"

Sasuke looks down the hall with an indifferent look on his face. He was thinking about whether he should tell Kakashi about something or not, Kakashi could see that much easily. He takes a breath and turns back to his sensei.

"Amaya tried to commit suicide." He bluntly says with a tint of anger in his voice and eyes. Kakashi's brows come together with his mouth slightly open beneath his mask.

"Do you want to run that by me again?" He asks in one of his more serious tones.

"She tried to kill herself." The young Uchiha says, never faltering his tone.

"How did you come up with this?"

"When we followed Amaya's scent, we caught up to her to see her fall from a tree branch. I had my Sharigan activated and I was able to see her actually push herself from the tree. I caught her and she asked me why I saved her. I asked her if she planned on saving herself and she said yes, by dying. She kept saying how she didn't want to be here anymore."

"She said that to you? Amaya…Amaya said that to you?"

"Hai, she made it very clear,"

Kakashi closed his refrigerator door and poured himself a glass of milk…why he was doing this? He really didn't know he didn't even like milk that much. He didn't mind it once in a while but not all the time. The Jonin takes off his mask and Hitai-ate and drinks the milk and then sets it down gently on the table. Maybe he did know why he was annoyed or disturbed by Amaya's emotionless. After seeing his own father, The White Fang of Konaha, take his own life right before a 7 year old Kakashi, he became practically emotionless and went by the book. He didn't want Amaya to turn out the same way.

"Come on guys, what is with you today?" Kakashi asks with his hands placed lazily on his hips as he looks down at his students.

"Well that's a stupid question," Naruto mutters and crosses his arms angrily. Sasuke has his hands in his pockets and his head was tilted down with his eyes closed. Sakura's hands were clasped in front of her lower abdomen and she had a sad look on her face.

"What do you mean?" Kakashi asks. Through out the entire training session, no one was cooperating, there heads were just not in it.

"Well, we still don't know if Amaya is ok or not! The last time we saw her she was still unconscious and in critical condition!" Naruto shouts.

"Amaya's fine, you guys. I was just talking to her last night." Kakashi says smiling.

"Nani!?" The three of them cry out at once. "Why didn't you tell us?!"

"Ehehe…I guess I kinda forgot, gomen, gomen." Kakashi laughs nervously and scratches the back of his head.

"Can we go see her?!" Naruto asks eagerly, "Can we? Can we??"

"Hai, hai, but I don't know if she'll be awake or not,"

"That's ok! I'll take that chance! Dattebayo!!" Naruto goes to run off when Sakura grabs him by the collar.

"Naruto! Matte! Wait for the rest of us!" She yells. Kakashi smiles. He was glad to see that they were all eager to see their injured teammate.

"Oh, oi, Sasuke."

"Nani?" The young Uchiha answers rudely.

"Amaya wanted me to tell you that she says thank you. Without you keeping her conscious, she probably wouldn't still be alive." Sasuke looks up at his sensei then he titls his head and walks with his eyes closed.

"Hn," he says, but on the inside he felt…pleased.

Team 7 arrives in the hospital room to see Amaya sleeping. Naruto's heart drops to his stomach. He wanted to talk to Amaya, badly. It seems like it's been forever since they actually had a conversation. He missed it, he missed talking to her. He could talk to Amaya about anything; he could talk to her about his crush with Sakura and about how much he hates Sasuke without getting an objective reaction. She would just listen and put in her two cents every now and then when she felt it was needed. Everyone turns to the door when there is a soft knock on it.

"Oh! Um…I-I didn't realize that e-everyo-one would be here," Hinata says, clutching onto a vase with a few colorful flowers.

"Ohayou Hinata-chan!" Naruto yells loudly. Hinata's eyes widen and she blushes red.

"N-N-Naruto-kun! I, um…I didn't know…you were…going…" Hinata mumbles.

"NaaaaaNI?! Speak up! I couldn't hear a word you said! Dattebayo!" Naruto yells, putting a hand to his ear.

"Naruto…shut up, you're too loud…" Amaya grumbles.

"Oh, gomen Amaya…Amaya!" Naruto runs to her bed side. "Gomen, I didn't mean to wake you, but now since you're awake…"

Amaya's eyes remain close while Naruto rambles on about something that Amaya had no interest in whatsoever. She was very uncomfortable lying on her back; she could never fall asleep that way, ever. But because of her dislocated shoulder and broken ribs, she wasn't allowed to move any other way. She was feeling way more pain than what she felt the other night when she was talking to Kakashi and the Hokage. 'The pain killers are finally wearing off,' she reasons.

"Look, Naruto, no offense, but go away, I want to sleep, and take anyone else in the room with you as well. I can't concentrate on anything so trying to talk to me now would be a waste of time." Amaya says with a slightly contorted face, she never opened her eyes to see anyone; she was just too worn too. She hears Kakashi chuckle. "That includes you too sensei." Amaya says.

"Hai, hai, hai," Kakashi chuckles again.
