Notes before we start: This chapter is from Sakura's point of view. Yeah, I know I'm interrupting a SasuNaru moment, but since won't let me post (at time of writing this) I decided to just write this for fun (and out of boredom). Oh yeah, then Kakashi's view after the line. Think of this as a bonus chapter. x3 Underlined parts show a Flashback. (I'd use a line, but that would just confuse you)
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, and any of the characters in this Fan fiction. I'd love to, but it's not going to happen any time soon.
Warning: Mild Yaoi references ahead. Mild Hetro references also ahead.
Don't flame the NaruSasu and the KakaSaku :3

Sakura pulled her headband over her eyes as Kakashi instructed, and gripped his hand gently.
"K-Kakashi… Where are we?" She asked, being a little worried of what was going to happen next. She tried to see where she was, but the headband covered her eyes completely. The temperature changed as Kakashi moved her somewhere new, as if into a shelter.
"Take off your headband and have a look." Kakashi's voice echoed through her mind. Where would she be? Would she be on a cliff edge? Would she be…?
She took her headband off and opened her eyes.
"I-It's a house." Sakura said, a little plainly. What was so special about going to a house?
"It's not just a house. It's our house." Kakashi winked, and she was just shocked.
"B-B-But..! You bought a house for us to live in! Together!" She shouted, clenching her fists.
"There's two bedrooms, so don't worry. Besides, what else did you expect?" Kakashi was saying this as neutrally as humanly possible. "I mean, I told you I wanted us to move in together, so why not while we can?"
"But, Kakashi!"
"No buts Sakura." Kakashi placed his finger on Sakura's lips. "Your parents have already allowed you to move out. They think you're living on your own, so they won't know."
"It's all so sudden! I'll have to go pack, and tell my mom where I am and everything…" Sakura was smiling now, getting used to the idea of living with him. After all, he wasn't as bad as she first thought. First impressions aren't always things that stick with you, and they often change.
"I've already done all that for you." Kakashi smiled back, even if Sakura couldn't see it, she could tell. She pulled him into a hug and felt him put his arms round her back.
"Thank you so much Kakashi! I'm so happy! I'm so glad I fell in love with you! Thank you so much!" She was so excited; she couldn't help but say all the things that came out. "Where's my room?"
"Up the stairs, first room on your right. All your things are in there." Kakashi sighed.
"What, you didn't unpack them for me?" She joked, laughing a little as she let go and walked upstairs to her room.
Kakashi smiled slightly as the pink haired girl happily walked upstairs to her new room. He sat down on the sofa and looked up at the ceiling with his single eye. It would probably take a little getting used to; living with his ex-student and current lover… She was maturing quickly from a young flirtatious girl to a beautiful and sensitive woman. He liked to think it was from his influence, but it seemed to happen after the last (and final) time Sasuke declined Sakura's love for him.
At least she got over him. Sure, he felt bad for Sasuke at times, but in the end, Kakashi was the one who she finally fell in love with. Even thought he had said that he'd never always loved her, he was lying. Incredibly. Ever since the first Chunnin exam they all took together, he saw how graceful she was in combat. The way her body was curved in all the right places…
He was going a little off track, but Kakashi did have a point to his perverted points sometimes. Only sometimes though.
Anyhow, after the exam, he saw the raw determination she had for looking after her teammates, and also the friends she had made so long ago. That was the first time he started thinking about his pink haired teammate the way he felt now. Well, now he felt a lot stronger about her, but that was only because as they grew older together, he saw her change in many good ways. Indeed. Many ways.
He coughed a little as he thought about this, blushing as he did so. He still couldn't forgive himself for that one time. If Sakura found out about it, she'd probably kill him. But, it was only one time. Yet, it was the day after Sasuke was first admitted into the hospital. That made it okay. Well, better than it was before. At least they had both admitted that they loved each other, but he still couldn't even forgive himself…
Kakashi looked around, the final book of Make Out Paradise in his hands. He was slightly sad that no more books would be coming out, but he had his own, and simply better, things to think about. He sobbed slightly as he finished the book, and threw it behind him. As he heard a bang of his book hitting a window, he stopped and went back to make sure he hadn't broken it. Thankfully he hadn't. He wanted to say sorry for any disturbance that he caused. He looked through the window, a flash a pink hair passing across of his face.Kakashi's face turned the same shade of the girls hair as he realized where the window was placed, and who the girl was. He was looking into Sakura's bathroom! Even though he had looked at many women's bodies before, he never thought that he would see Sakura's curved and naked body so soon after confessing to her.
No matter how much he wanted to turn away, the silver haired scarecrow couldn't look away from his current, and possible only, love. He forced his eyes shut and sighed slowly. He placed his hand on the window almost silently, his other hand placed on his heart. The pink haired girl would never forgive him if he told her about it, so he swore then and there never to speak of this moment ever again.
Kakashi sighed slightly, hearing a screech of delight coming from Sakura's room. She'd found it. He stood up, stretched and started walking up the stairs. He opened the first door on his right and smiled. "Kakashi! You never told me there was a hot-tub behind these sliding doors!" Sakura's face was incredibly bright, and something was different. He hadn't figured out what yet, but he had a feeling he was about to soon enough."Yes, I'm sorry about that. I wanted to keep it as a surprise for you." He looked at the calendar. Just another five days. He wondered if she would remember..? 'Isn't it normally the man who forgets, and the woman gets mad for forgetting things like that..?' He shrugged. 'Oh well, so much for stereotypes.'
"Well then, aren't we going to try it out?" Sakura blushed, taking her dress and shorts off, revealing a bikini suit.
"Of course, let me go and get some shorts…" Kakashi started to turn, but the sakura haired girls hand waved in front of him, a pair of swimming trunks held firmly in her hand. "You really thought of everything, didn't you?" Sakura nodded happily.
Eventually, after Kakashi got changed and a lot of nervousness about getting into the warm hot springs like tub together, Sakura and Kakashi were in each embracing each other in each others arms. Her head as resting on his shoulder, and one of his hands was stroking her longer locks of hair. His other hand? That was edging its way around Sakura's body. She didn't seem to mind, but only because her arms were around his torso.
"You know, if you were anybody else, you would have been killed by now." Sakura's voice awoke Kakashi from a small daze. He wasn't actually thinking about anything, he seemed more asleep than awake. Kakashi smirked a little.
"If you were anybody else, I wouldn't even let you in the same house as me." Kakashi sighed truthfully. Sakura didn't seem to mind though, she seemed to be in a daze of her own. He knew what she was thinking though. He still had his mask on.
"You really want to know what's behind this mask, right?" Kakashi asked Sakura, placing both arms around her waist. Her skin was so soft… He shook his head, noticing his mind was wandering again.
"Y-Yea… I'm sorry. But you know, Sasuke and Naruto were kissing!"
"Neither Naruto nor Sasuke wear a mask to hide their face though."
"I guess. But please, I won't tell anybody that you let me see. I promise… Please?" Sakura looked into Kakashi's single eye, and he couldn't say no.
"Don't tell anybody." He let go of Sakura's body and dried his hands on a small towel.
He removed the knot on the back and started to slowly remove the mask that he hid behind. However, a lot of things had come up to the surface to show Sakura, so why not his face? As he opened his eyes again, he saw tears in Sakura's eyes.
"K-Kakashi… I thought you hid your face because you were scared of what people would think of you…" Sakura wiped her eyes on the towel that Kakashi had just used. "Now I see that.. You use it because you were scared of people you didn't love loving you. You're so handsome." Her hands brushed the skin of his face that hadn't felt the skin of others for so long… It felt so nice.
"You have the skin of someone around my age, and the looks too." Sakura smiled, wrapping her arms around Kakashi. He smiled, kissing Sakura on the forehead, but her head moved as his lips were ready to touch her skin, and both their lips connected. At first it was soft and gentle, but then his hands were wrapped around Sakura's body, and hers the same to his. It seemed to last forever. The kiss was so passionate, it was if they were never going to see each other again.
He didn't want to pull away, but he had to. He still felt like a perverted old man, kissing a girl who he used to teach, but somehow… He just didn't care. If anyone found out about the love the two shared, he would defiantly be branded 'The Mirror Eye Pervert' throughout the whole village. But, yet again, he didn't seem to care if everyone knew. He knew that Sakura would care though, and would keep it a secret from everybody. Well, Sasuke and Naruto were different. They kept a lot of secrets, so this one wasn't so big compared to their own personal ones.
Kakashi sneezed, pulling his mask back on as he stepped out of the tub with Sakura in his arms. She had fallen asleep on his lap. Even if she was an adult, she still had the sleeping patterns of a young girl. He put a towel around her cooling body before tucking her into bed. He felt like a parent putting a child into bed, but he was more like that than anything else. He wasabout twenty years older than her, so he could actually be her father. A scary thought, but they didn't seem to mind.
He turned off the light, leaving Sakura's room and entering his own. He lay down in bed and looked up at the ceiling whilst taking his mask and headband off from around his head. He closed his eyes and thought for a moment, before turning off the light.

Ta-Dah! Don't ask me why this Bonus chapter is pretty long, I just got bored and annoyed with not being able to post chapter eleven. I couldn't write chapter twelve somehow, so I started writing a KakaSaku thing instead. –sigh- probably because I'm missing something in my life. Oh well, FanFiction better be letting me submit documents tomorrow, otherwise I'll explode! -HasmathsSATs- ( 3 It's letting me post now. -happy- But, this bonus chapter is really long. oO)
