Pt 5
She didnt walk back into her appartment as much as -fall- in. She passed out on the floor, hair coming untied from its ribbon and sprawling across her face.
*****morning****
"ughh...." she groaned, upon finding her face was planted on the floor...alongside the rest of her. "How did i-? oh yeah.." she groans silently "my Check Healing jutsu...." she rolled up onto her feet, hair sticking up in several directions.
At that moment her alarm went off, she staggered over and clicked it off, remebering the past nights event...-i was sure nobody saw me...so why do i get a bad feeling..- she shivers, but starts dragging on her clothes, brushing her hair and just pausing to grab her bag before she ran out the door.
"Its still early, ill have plenty of time to go see gai before i meet Lee at the lake..." she skids to a halt just outside the hospital. Someone was watching her. She turned around "hey! i know you're there!" she calls. The shadow shifts, as a familiar silver haired ninja steps out from the shadows "heh, good healing you did last night...didnt know that was a ninja jutsu" her eyes go wide and she gapes at him "j-just who are you anyway?" she yells, gratefull the street is still empty.
The ninja smiles "im Hatake Kakashi, Gai's "Rival" so to speak.." he smiles, the eye unhidden by the headband crinkles up in a smile "dont look at me like that..." he smirks faintly, thought its hard to see behind the mask, "i wont let your secret out...." she gapes at him, speechless -h-he saw me?- then he turns on his heel, and before she can say anything, hes gone. All she hears is his last departing words "take care of both of you..." she frowned "both...what the--?" then scowls "stupid. arrogant.&%£%-oh!" she storms into the hospital, putting the smart-ass ninja out of her head.

The hospital staff had gotten a big shock when they checked on maito's conditon. The previous day he'd been in a bad conditon, running a dangerous temperature, but now it seemed as if it never happened.
"Im free to go then?" "y-yes sir" Gai nodded swiftly and strode from the room, leaving the hospital staff stunned behind him. How could someone, suffering from a fever one day, recover so abrputly?

Haruka strode in so pissed she didn't look where she was going, but whacked right into someone "ow!" she reeled back, almost falling, when the person grabbed her wrist and pulled her back onto her feet. She slowly opened her eyes, expecting to see an annoyed hospital staff.
But instead she was surpised to see gai smiling at her "eh.." her face went red, the hand still in his warm grasp "im sorry..mr.maito-sama" he stepped back kindly and let her go "you alright?" she nodded, though still looking a bit flustered.
He looked at her worriedly "want to go get a coffee, you look very pale" she nods "yes..." her head spinning with all thats happened, that weird kakashi ninja...
*****
Gai watched haruka closely as they sat down and ordered coffee. Her hands were wrapped around the mug and she looked into its depths as if seeing something, he had to lean forward slightly and wave one hand at her to get her attention, which made her go red again, apollogising.
"Is something wrong, has lee been a problem?" her head jerked up form coffee-gazing "oh..n-no..hes been a real star!" they both smile. She looks at him , tilting her head slightly "You better already? they said u were very ill yesterday..when i went..in.." she trailed off absently. He blinked,seeing her looking a little red.
Deciding to answer her question, he shrugged slightly, unable to explain it himself "i dont kno..one day i could barely make out where i was, i felt sick...then there was just a strange feeling, like someone was using a jutsu or something to help me...i cant remember anything except feeling someone holding my hand for a brief moment. I tried to wake up, but by the time i did..they were gone...along with any sign i'd ever been ill..its a mystery..."
She nodded, seemingly as shocked as he, but inside she thought -he remebers...me holding his hand, while i was healing him..- a smile appears on her lips as she listens to him talking -but..should i tell him...or would he think i'm a weirdo..as no doubt kakashi does...-
Across the street, balanced on a pole, alongside two dozy pigeons, kakashi lazily watched them both. Everybody looking that way would see three birds sitting on the pole, but kakashi was beguining to wish he hadnt used that technique..one of the pigeons was attempting to flirt with his ankle. Looking glancingly each way, he struck out one foot and kicked the bird off.
"Kehe.." he snickered to himself, watching as gai leaned forward to speak to her "hm...-" But he was interrupted from his observations by the other pigeon deciding his rear was a pecking target. Oh. Bugger. .
