Towns, and crowds of people.
The smiling faces
pass and go beyond
The soft lighting of the street lamps.
I
want to feel
The warmth of your cheek through your fingertips.

Hyuga Hinata was a hard lover to bear sometimes. One moment she was clingy, the next distant. Then she'd just randomly start crying. She was an IMPOSSIBLE lover to bear sometimes.
But that didn't mean a certain Hatake Kakashi didn't miss her terribly when they were apart.
Now, on his way home from an exceptionally screwed up assignment, it irked him to no end that, even as he came home her tired, successful, devoted, still-alive-after-facing-great-odds lover, it'd take the Hyuga spawn three or four days to find time to visit, and another week before they acted like people in love again.
What a world.
One could always hope she was free today, and that she missed him enough to overcome her usual shyness.
"Fat chance," he muttered aloud, drawing the eyes of a few on the same sidewalk he dragged his feet along as he trudged on home.
A tired Kakashi with too much time to think is not a pleasant thing.
Yet, as he entered his slightly dusty home, neglectedbut somehow different from the way he left it, a sudden surge of hope struck him. Starting in the pit of his stomach as a warm little ball, that surge wound up his limbs, a sensation just like the one caused by...
Hinata's perfume!
Why would Hinata's perfume be in his house, and smell so strong?
"W-welcome home..."
And there she was, standing in the doorway to the kitchen, blushing softly and looking like a shy little mouse.
Hours later, chest pressed to Hinata's back as he held her close, the two curled up on the couch, Kakashi reflected on his adorable little love.
She was a hard lover to bear sometimes.
But when you love someone, what's it matter?
