Chapter 2: The Ramen shop.
They arrived at the Ramen shop, and were seated immediatly.
" What can I get you"? asked the waitress.
" I'll have the new pork and bean ramen please". Naruto said with a smile.
" I'll have plain ramen". said Sakura.
" I'll have the same as her". said Sasuke.
inner Sakura: " He ordered the same thing as me"!
She was smiling.
" I wonder what she's smiling about. It's probably something stupid, like, oredered the same thing as her. If I liked her and wanted to show it I would do something alittle more obvious".
" I'll have the pea and carrot ramen". said Kakashi.
" And I'll have the same as him ". said Ishimaru with a smile.
" O.k that will be about 15 minutes". said the waitress, and walked to the kitchen in the back of the resturant.
" 15 minutes "! exclaimed Naruto.
Everyone pretty much ignored him. They were used to his weird out bursts. Ishimaru laughed to herself.
Kakashi turned to Ishimaru. " Ishimaru, tomorrow I was thinking I would let you practice teaching a little bit. I'll tell you what to teach them, and we'll see how you do. If I see you need help, or you ask for help I'll step in, and then go over it with you latter.
" O.k. Isimaru said in an excited voice. Thanks". She smiled.
" So you three, beside the introduction your sensei gave me, I really don't know much about you. And I think there is more to you than what he said." Ishimaru said smiling at Kakashi".
" No there really is'nt". Kakashi said with a smile.
" Well there is more to me"! said Naruto. " I love ramen, and I love to train, and work hard ! And I will be Hokage some day"!
" Good. What about you Sakura"? ( she smiled. (Ishimaru).
" I like to write in my journal. And you know the other thing". They laughed.
" Am I missing something"? said Kakashi
" It's nothing".She waved him off.
" What about you Sasuke"?
" I like to train. Hard".
" Is that it"? said Ishimaru.
" Yes".
" Your ramen"! said the waitress.
" Thanks"! said Naruto.
" Yes,thank you". said Ishimaru.
" Your welcome". said the waitress.
She gave each of them exactly what they ordered.
" This is good".said Kakashi.
" Yes it is"! said Naruto.
Ishimaru shook her head, and smiled.
They quitely ate untill they were all done.
" O.k. said Kakashi. They all got up,
You are free to go for the rest of the day. I'll see you tomorrow bright and early"! His eyes arched.
" Yeah right". said Sakura.
" See you all tomorrow"! said Ishimaru
" Bye"! said Sakura and Naruto. Sakura waved, and Ishimaru waved back.
All three walked away, leaving thier sensei's in front of the ramen shop.
" I'll see you tomorrow". said Kakashi, and turned away.
" Wait". said Ishimaru
Kakashi turned around on his heels.
" Would you like to come over to my house later for dinner". said Ishimaru
Kakashi was supprised. " Huh?"
" Do you want to come for dinner? I want to thank you by making you dinner". She said.
" But I haven't done anything". said Kakashi
" But you will. And I'm sure under you I'll become a great sensei. You seem very smart".
" Uh o.k".
" Great ! How's 6 o'clock"?
" Fine."
" O.k see you then"!
" Thanks". said Kakashi.
" No problem"! said Ishimaru.
Later that day...
Kakashi walked past a row of houses looking for Ishimaru's.
He noticed her family name on a mailbox. He walked up the walkway, and knocked on the door.
Inside Ishimaru heard a knock on her door.
" Coming "! she said while finishing with the salad.
She opened the door.
" Kakashi"!
" Hi". said Kakashi
" Come on in"...said Ishimaru.
Kakashi walked in and took his shoes off.
While he was doing that Ishimaru shut the door.
" I was just finishing preparing dinner". said Ishimaru.
" I hope you like salad". said Ishimaru.
" Yeah". said Kakashi. He smiled.
She smiled back.
" Is there a time when she doesn't smile"? though Kakashi.
That made him smile.
"Would you set the table for me"? asked Ishimaru.
" The stuff is in the center of the table".
" Sure". said Kakashi
Ishimaru went back to what she was doing before he arrived.
And Kakashi set the table.
" You know, you didn't have to do this". said Kakashi.
" It's o.k I enjoy cooking for people. It's fun"! she said with a smile.
"O.k it's ready"! She said.
Ishimaru brought the salad to the table. Then she went back to the counter, and prepared a soup bowl for them.
They started to eat.
" This is good soup". said Kakashi.
"Thank you". said Ishimaru.
They continued to eat in silence for awhile.
"So you come from the village hidden in the mist.
Do you know who Zabuza is "? said Kakshi
" Yeah. I know him. He used to be best friens with my brother Derek, and me. Then...well you know what happened. I don't why he did that. He seemed so happy".
Kakashi reached over and touched Ishimaru's hand.
She looked up at him. " He's sweet, in his own way"...
" Thanks". she said quietly.
He just smiled.
" So how advanced is your team. I hear your a pretty tough sensei". said Isimaru
" Well they are pretty advanced,...supprisingly".
Ishimaru laughed.
" Glad to see you back". said Kakashi with a smile.
That made her smile more.
" So what do you think? Am I a good cook"? said Ishimaru.
" Yes. It was delicious"! said Kakashi
She smiled.
" I'll help you clean up". said Kakshi
" Thank you ". said Ishimaru
When they were done Kakashi prepared to leave.
" It was nice having you". said Ishimaru
She was twirling her ponytail. Kakashi didn't know this, but this was her nervous habit.
He sensed something about her aura...
" Well I'll see you tomorrow". said Kakashi
She opened the door.
" Bye." said Ishimaru. She leaned in and pecked him on the cheek.
She smiled.
Kakashi cleared his throat. " See you". he said, smiled, and waved.
She gave a small wave back.
Outside a blond boy watched this.
He was supprised.
Ishimaru shut the door, and leaned against the wall. She sighed, and sat down.
She had not felt like this in years. She was in love, and she had no problem admiting it to herself.
She smiled.
" Mom, and Dad"...she muttered.
She twirled her hair.
