Chapter 4 – Admitting Feelings.

It was the next morning before Kakashi decided to talk to Sakura. The flash back of Sasuke trying to fight him, then of Sasuke telling him about the incident between him and Sakura played through his head continuously. He had to find out if it really was him that she had feelings for. Checking the time he guessed that Sakura would be out and about with Naruto and Hinata. But where would the trio be? He'd have to look for them, so off he went to the shopping area to see if he could see them about, no luck however. A thought came to him, he should try the Ramen shop it was a possibility that they'd be there.

Reaching the Ramen shop his hopes shot up again only to come plummeting back down to Earth when he discovered they were there but Sakura wasn't. There was only one thing to do now.

"Naruto!" He called to the blonde haired boy who turned his head still eating some of his meal.

"Ahw Kwakefshi-sensze" He replied cheerily his mouth still full of Ramen. Hinata couldn't help but giggle at him he was so cute when he was being silly, that's what she loved about him. He was always active and cheerful. Swallowing his food down he waited until Kakashi had sat beside him.

"So what brings you out here?" He asked.

"Not much. Have you seen Sakura around?"

"Nope. I haven't seen her since last night, is there anything wrong?" Naruto asked with concern, worried incase his best friend had suddenly disappeared.

"No there's nothing wrong. I just need to find her and ask her something."

"Like what?"

"That's…none of your business at the moment, Naruto."

"Spoil sport Kakashi-sensei."

"Ma! Ja mata ne." He said cheerily as he up and left the shop going in search of the pink haired kunoichi again. He'd searched most of the village so far the only part he hadn't looked was the bridge where they all used to meet up when they were training. He hadn't seen Sasuke yet which made him worry a little, but then again Sasuke wouldn't do anything to harm Sakura. He decided to head out to the bridge after looking over the village again for her.

Sakura was indeed at the bridge, she leaned on the railing of it looking down to the water below her, staring into the clear water in deep thought about what had went on last night. She'd admitted to Sasuke that she had feelings for someone else but he might not have caught onto who, she realised that she'd whispered the last part to him before running off. She hoped that Sasuke wasn't going to leave the village again because of her she wouldn't be able to forgive herself if he did. With a sigh she slumped a little more on the railing her feet were killing her and she was sore and tired. She hadn't gone home last night, she hadn't slept at all last night either. Her feet were aching so much that even sitting down was a problem, her legs were aching from walking around all night she just wanted someone to hold her and care for her at that particular moment. Picking up a nearby stray pebble on top of the railing she threw it into the water straight at her reflecting causing it to ripple and distort her image a little bit. When it calmed and returned to flowing smoothly looking as thought it was frozen still she didn't notice a figure leaning next to her.

Kakashi smirked slightly under his mask, she was pretty damned cute when she was clueless to things around her when in thought.

"Ohayou Sakura." He said, making her jump out of her skin, nearly over the railing itself.

"Kakashi-sensei! O-ohayou, don't scare me like that." She said suddenly turning red in the face from a mix of embarrassment and blush.

"Gomen ne." He apologised to her.

"Daijoubu. So what brought you all the way out here? Wandering?" She asked returning to her normal cheery self.

"Half and half. I really wanted to talk to you."

"About what?" Sakura asked still leaning on the railing looking at the water.

"About something that Sasuke had told me last night after he tried to fight me." He replied taking the same pose as Sakura, leaning up onto the railing and looking down at the water. The last bit made her look up to him.

"Fight? He tried to fight you? Why?" She'd sort of forgotten what she said to Sasuke last night, she was that tired.

"Well he told me that he had tried to ask you out last night, and you ended up rejecting him because you'd fallen for someone else?" He said.

Sakura blushed deeper, the memories of last nights conversations all came flooding back to her at once, she'd told Sasuke that she loved Kakashi. She hadn't thought that he actually caught onto the whisper.

"S-sou ne."

"Aa, and he told me that you may have feelings for…me?" He said, he wanted to hear it from her and her alone. He could see from the side of his eye that she was blushing deeper than before now, he took a guess that it must be true.

"Well?"

"I…Ha-Hai!" She finally said shutting her eyes expecting him to probably lecture her on it or something bad anyway. She didn't really think that he'd go for her anyway but she was just about to find out, Kakashi didn't bother to say anything instead he slipped the part of his mask that covered his mouth to below his chin and placed a kiss onto her lips. Sakura's blush just went even deeper, her eyes fluttered open as her heart began racing like nothing on earth. He was kissing her, did this mean that he had feelings for her after all? She got all worked up for nothing? It suddenly dawned to her from the blue to, that this was the first time in the many years that she's known him for that she alone has been able to see his true face under that mask, he looked so kawaii. She eventually got out of her shocked state and closed her eyes again and returned the kiss to him.

Owari.
