Notes before we start: This chapter is from Kakashi's point of view.

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. Don't flame the NaruSasu and the KakaSaku :3

Hearing Sakura's cries for help, Kakashi walked up the stairs, trying to open the bathroom door.
"It's locked from the inside." He said simply, sliding some keys under the door.
"Thank you!" Sakura's voice came from inside, before the door opened a little. All he could see was her blushing face. "If you don't mind, I need to get to my bedroom."
"Be my guest." He stepped back so she could get out, but she sighed slowly but angrily.
"I'm only in a towel." Kakashi blushed a little.
"Sorry, I'll leave you in peace." He put his nose on her forehead before walking back downstairs.

He never used to show any facial expressions before he met Sakura and the others, and still didn't when they were younger. However, after that time Sakura finally gave up on Sasuke, his face broke into smiles, tears and blushes more often. Well, the tears didn't come as often as the other two, and the blushes just came around when he was around Sakura.

Speaking of which, it would take a while to get used to having someone else living in his house. He had lived alone ever since he left his parents house, and even then, he still hadn't gotten used to have women in the house, never mind other people. However, since it was only Sakura, he'd get used to it.

After all, he did have that in his possession now. Kakashi still felt nervous for having it in the house, incase she found it when she was looking for things, but hopefully she wouldn't. He was still wondering if he should or not, wondering if Sakura would or not… It was very confusing. It probably would prey on his mind until he figured out what to do, and that didn't seem to close right now.

Maybe he should tell her about that time… Then again, Kakashi really didn't want to do anything to jeopardize their small relationship so far. After all, Sakura could easily move out or get angry with him for something small. Or, in his case, pretty big. Sighing slowly and falling onto the sofa, he pondered the idea just a little longer. Then, he came to a conclusion. He wouldn't just yet. He'd wait until nothing he said affected how the two of them felt about each other.

The scarecrow closed his eyes and put his feet over the other side of the sofa. It wasn't too big, but it was as comfortable as sitting on a cloud. He called it 'The Cloud 9 seat'. Why? He didn't know, but maybe when Sakura sat on it for the first time, she'd be able to realize. Naming the sofa the way he did didn't really affect his mind much, since Kakashi had already felt as if he and Sakura, along with Sasuke and Naruto, were sitting on cloud nine pretty comfortably. Well, metaphorically of course.

Trying to ignore his changing one-track mind, Kakashi tired to think of nothing to try and get some sleep. Last night, after he put Sakura to bed, he walked to his room, but he couldn't sleep. He had walked back into the girl's room and watched her sleep. She didn't move much, and didn't notice him holding her hand. He was glad, since he didn't really want to find out how angry Sakura could get first thing in the morning.

Sighing heavily, Kakashi turned over onto his side and tried to relax again. He couldn't sleep. Again. All he wanted was to sleep! However, that was going to be a problem as he heard Sakura walking down the stairs and pulling the curtains open to let the sun pour onto his face.
"Come on Kakashi, you can't sleep at a time like this! It's a wonderful day out!" Sakura's cheery voice made his head hurt, turning over as he moaned. "Come on, you must have gotten more than eight hours sleep, right?" Kakashi opened his eye slowly, shaking his head before closing it again. He imagined Sakura's smile as he felt the sofa gain more weight at his feet. It was the last thing he remembered feeling before he fell asleep…

Yes, I'm sorry. I said that I'd have this up two days ago, but I ran out of time on the computer the day before, and yesterday I had two English Exams, ran a Drama club and played Rounders. I was just exhausted. So, I'm sorry. As in, really sorry. I did put up a lot of chapters up the other day though… I think..? I hope I did. I can't remember right now. Anyway, like I said, I'm so sorry! But... Exams are over now! And the End is near. How sad. I might do a cliff hanger for this one, then leave it for a bit. Just to be evil. Tell me what you think!
