The next few days went by in a flash. Both Kida and Kakashi were in a daze. Sasuke didn't really seem to like this new 'Kakashi way of teaching', mainly because they weren't doing anything. Kida was taking up all of Kakashi's time, it didn't even seem like they were trying to hide it from them anymore. But something happened later the next week that no one was prepared for.
--
It was cloudy that day, so cloudy that not even the sun could try to penetrate it. But that wasn't going to dampen Kakashi's mood. He didn't think that anything in the world could bring him down, not the atmosphere and certainly not crappy weather. Things were going fantastically, and that was all that mattered. He looked over at his darling woman and smiled to himself. They had been up every night, doing things that made his mind spin. And they told each other about the people they had met across the way of their lives. Kida especially thought this 'Iruka' sounded awesome! So, naturally, she was tired. He kissed her forehead and stood up.
Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke were already up, and sitting by a fire to make their breakfast. Kida had been teaching Naruto in secret. Not to do ninjistu, as most would expect, but in life. There were certain aspects of both their lives that were very much alike. For instance, when she was his age she wanted to be the best ninja as well, and she grew up without her parents. She never told Kakashi, but the parents he knew were her foster parents. The demon fox had killed her real parents.
"Good morning, Master Kakashi"
He nodded. "Good morning Sakura." He looked at what they were making and made a bowl for himself, and leaned against a tree.
"You've been really busy lately, Master Kakashi."
He looked up quickly, thinking that they knew what he and Kida did in the night. He could tell by their expressions that they did not. "Yes, I know. Normal training will commence soon, I promise you."
"Thank you sir."
The day went by relatively slowly. Kida awoke a few hours later, after the three had left. Kakashi stood up and treaded over to her, and rested a kiss on her lips.
"Good morning, love."
She snuggled against him, still cold after her temperature dropped while she slept. "Hi." She looked up at him, and the color dropped from her face. She ran quickly to nearby bushes.
He was utterly confused for a second. "Are you okay?" he called out to her. She exited her bushes after a few minutes.
"I-I suddenly don't feel well."
"Come on, I'm taking you to town. There's got to be a doctor around there."
"No way, you're not leaving those three out here by themselves. I'm okay, I can go by myself." She hugged him lightly, keeping her face away from his. The last thing he needed was to get sick. "I'll be back soon." She grabbed her bag and headed towards town.
--
It was hours before she returned, and it was nearly nighttime. In fact, Sasuke and Sakura were preparing dinner. Naruto was still out, probably training. Kakashi looked up quickly after hearing a twig snap, and saw Kida. She looked like she had just seen a ghost.
"Kida?" He got up quickly to see what was wrong.
"I need to talk to you Kakashi." She pulled him away from Sasuke and Sakura, by a tree, which was probably about 500 years old.
"Is something wrong? What'd the doctor say?"
"He said that I'm fine, that these symptoms are quite normal."
He looked extremely confused. "Normal? For what?"
She almost laughed. "Don't tell me you don't know that pregnant women often get sick in the morning."
"You're-?" She nodded. Now he actually did start laughing, and hugged her tightly. "You scared the hell out of me, you know that?"
She winked. "I don't give news straight up. You know that." He hugged her around the waist, and lifted her up as they spun around. Both of them were laughing.
--
It was a while later, Naruto and the others had finally gone to sleep after Kakashi and Kida returned, both with huge smiles on their faces. Kakashi was still amazed at the news.
"Wow, I'm gonna be a daddy." He had his head on her stomach. They were not ABOUT to fall asleep. He kissed her, then her stomach. He placed his nose on it and thought out loud. "I wonder what it's like in there."
She laughed, and hugged his head. "I don't know. Maybe we should ask it when they can talk."
If Kakashi had thought that he was on top of the world before, he was extremely wrong. He felt like singing, he felt like dancing. He felt like running through the forest laughing his head off, and to tell the whole world how he felt. He was in love, and he was going to be a dad. Nothing in the world could top that.
"We still need to pick out names, ya know."
He looked up briskly. "Maybe we should get some sleep first, huh?" He lay down on his back, and Kida curled up next to him, her head on his chest. He wrapped his arm around her, and just lied there, watching her every move. "G'night baby."
She didn't open her eyes. "Goodnight Kakashi."
He didn't think he'd ever get to sleep, he had decided that tomorrow he was going to ask her to marry him, and he didn't want that night to ever end. But somehow, sleep finally caught up with him, and he had wonderful dreams.
--
The next morning, Kida was the one who woke up first. No one was up yet, and she knew that Kakashi would want to be up with her. 'Now, how should I wake him up' she pondered to herself. She finally decided that she was gonna try as many different ways as she could before he woke up. First, she sang a baby's lullaby in his ear. He just kind of grunted. Next, she played with his hair. Still nothing. She even kissed him next, but still no go. Finally, she came up with the one thing she knew for a fact would wake him up. She started to pull down his mask gently, like Naruto or Sakura would have done and his eye popped open.
"What the-?"
She stood up and started dancing around him. "Wake up, wake up, wake up!"
He sat up, and rubbed his eye. He grabbed her around the waist and pulled her on top of him. "I'm up." She laughed and prodded his chest. "Are we gonna tell your students today? Huh? Huh? Huh?" He lay back down, and she was sitting on his stomach. "Somebody's in a good mood today," he laughed. She stood back up and had a look on her face like a little kid on Christmas. "How could I not?! WE'RE GONNA HAVE A BABY!!!!!" She hug/tackled him.

Later that day, Kida and Sakura went into town to purchase a nice dress for her to wear. Kakashi had told her that he wanted to tell her something and thought that she should look really nice, as he would. So, she asked the two boys if they wanted to come, but didn't really expect them to want to come. Naruto almost wanted to, but he didn't want to let Sasuke get ahead of him in training, so it was just Kida and Sakura. After a few hours, they found a beautiful pink flowery dress. It had a tan top, which was connected to the skirt by pink fishnet. Sakura thought she looked gorgeous in it.
--
Kakashi told the boys what he was planning. Sasuke just said his usual 'Hmmm', however Naruto was really excited. They were going to be his other opinions, because he was getting a bit more dressed up than usual as well.
--
It was nighttime. Kida had been getting ready for a very long time, and Kakashi had too. He wasn't going to wear his vest, and he was going to try to get his hair to actually look more messy than normal. Sasuke was relatively quiet through this process, but Naruto just kept on asking questions like 'What if you freak out and lose your voice?' and Kakashi kept replying 'Try my hardest not to do that.' Finally, he stood up. "Alright, how do I look?"
It was Sasuke that answered him. "You look fine, Master Kakashi"
He nodded. "Alright. Wish me luck." They both replied "Good luck, sir."
--
The moon shone down brightly on them. They were meeting on the tree where he asked her if she still loved him. Kakashi ran up quickly from behind her. She looked amazing. Her hair reflected the moonlight in its preciseness. She turned and looked down at him, a huge smile on her face, and the stars glittered in her eyes.
He walked up the tree, and smiled down at her while he helped her stand up. She smiled again.
"Awwww, you even did your hair like I like it!" She messed it up fondly.
He took a deep breath in and sat down. "Okay. There's something I've got to ask you."
"What's that, Kakashi?" She sat down next to him.
He pulled out a little box and gave it to her quickly. She opened it up only to find nothing inside. "Uhmm, Kakashi?"
He pulled a ring out of his pocket. "You have to say yes first."
"Oh my God!!!!" she gasped. She hugged him quickly, tears filling her eyes. He put his arms around her. "Yes, Kakashi. Yes I will."
