Sakura touched the maskless face that stood before he in the doorway, looking into the black orb that stared down at her. She felt the warmth of the heat escaping his skin and immediatly knew that she was deeply going to miss his scent, his touch and the way he had a strange ablility to make her heart beat slower and faster simutaniously.Without even trying his silence said enough to her.He felt the same.
"Be careful, alright.?"She whispered as her voice tried desperatly to portray strengh for him knowing that he needed it very much.Kakashi's eye turned up as he visably forced the smile to appear on his lips. Even though it was the total opposite of how he was feeling and the fact the he hated the fact of leaving her.
"I promise."He replyed and gently brushed the hair that had fallen onto her face behind her ears.His eye opened to look at her emotion filled eyes.She could never hide her emotions even though she tried he could always see the plainly with those green eyes.And spoke the words he dreaded would come."I have to go."Sakura nodded and hung her head, struggleing hot to cry.She heard him sigh and felt his breath brush against her skin. She felt his fingers slip underneath her chin, gently bringing her head up to look at him. Before she knew it, her lips clashed with his in a passionate kiss.
Genma stuffed his hands into the pockets of his form fitting Anbu uniform. His dog mask visable on the side of his head as he played with the toothpick between his lips. Around him other Anbu members are also awaiting the misssing luteniate who was absent.
Genma sighed as a sudden puff of smoke appeared beside him and the figure of Kakashi began to come into focus.
"Yo."He replyed in his laid back tone which at this moment majorly bugged Genma whose patiance for the man had long since wore out.
"It's about time you're asss got here."Genma turned to face him"We were supposed to be gone two hours ago. You're lucky I kept these good people from gang kicking your ass the moment you showed up."Genma replyed.
"Uh, I don't think I'm comfortable with you talking about my ass so freely, Genma."Kakashi scratched his cheek."Don't get me wrong, I'm flattered but I'm married."Kakashi's eye curved signaling the smile going unnoticed beneath the mask which had now takin it's usual place covering his face.Genma galred up at the tall man.
"Don't fatter yourself."He snapped.
"Come on old friend, it was just a small joke. But are you doning wearing an Anbu uniform if you don't mind me asking?"Kakashi inquired, as Genma sighed.
"Last minute changes. I'll be joining you on this mission' lutenate-Hatake."Genma playfully soluted causeing Kakashi to rubbed the back of his head in exhaustion.
"I hate that formal name crap."He sighed.
"Wait a second, isn't that Sakura over there?"Genma replyed pointing behind Kakashi. He blinked and spun around. Sure enough there stood Sakura, she paused when he turned to look at her, and just stared over at Kakashi.
"I'll be right back."Kakashi whispered and took off in a run towards her
"But we gotta-"A short Anbu began but was cut off.
"Shut up and wait a second!"Genma snapped.
Sakura gaze flickered for a second as Kakashi approched, suddenly guilty of making the Anbu wait impatiently.
"Sakura "He whispered as he came to a stop before her.Be fore he could contine, Sakura held out her hands. Slowly opening her fingers to revel a small pendant which was caputer in it.
"This was my mothers,"She began.in a low whisper. Kakashi watchwd her in curiousity as she closed the space between them and slide the pendant with the golden chain over his head and around his neck. She ran her hands over the pendant then ran the down his strange chest."It's a part of me. So as long ass you have it, how far you may travel away...you'll have me with you.Keep it close to your heart, alright?"She forced a smile onher features in order to appear strong for him.Kakashi nodded and knelt down so he was eye level to her swollen stomach. His hands reached out to place each one on her belly.
"Ok, here are the rules while daddy's away."He whispered, causing Sakura to smile and she lovingly ran her hands threw his hair."One,no causing your mother any trouble you got that? And two, you better not even think about coming out for 3 months.Those are strict orders."He repyled and gently kissed the surface of her stomache. Straighting up to his feet he grabbed Sakura and kissed her hungerly. She melted underneath his lips before they pulled apart.Kakashi rested his forehead against hers witha sigh.
"I love you, Kakashi."She whispered.
"I love you , Sakura."Kakashi pulled from her and gave her one more sweetsmile before turning and running off towards the awaiting Anbu. Once he meet with them Kakashi lead the group as they leapt up in the trees in a blur.
