Chapter 9-Proposal

Disclaimer: Do Not Owe Naruto!

notes: none for now. Here it is...

Months had passed since Kakashi and Sakura had gotten together as a couple and all of Konoha knew about their relationship especially Rei's relatives. Though, they don't hear much from Rei's relatives since most aren't ninja's and are just regular villagers. Sakura was at the hospital helping out Shizune since a large number of jounin's came from a huge mission and most were injured.

Kakashi however, was walking with Gai and Asuma that very night as the trio were at the bar where Genma and Asuma had Sakura confessed her true feelings about Kakashi. "You seem kinda jumpy today my man," Asuma said as he sat at the right side of Kakashi who took a sip of his sake, "is it women trouble again?" Gai asked with a smirk.

"Actually, it's different," Kakashi began as the two men stared at him. "What could be different?" Asuma asked as Kakashi took out something from his pocket as the two men looked and gasped, "your going to proposed to Sakura?" Gai asked shocked. Kakashi nodded slowly, "we've known each other for like 14-years about. Even though we just started dating, we know everything about each other," he said with a smile.

"Finally your admitting that you love Sakura more now," Gai said as Kakashi stared at him. "Yea man, ever since Sakura left in her big mission, you always talked about her until Rei," Asuma said unhappily, "just don't tell her. It's a secret and I want to be perfect for the both of us," Kakashi said as the two man nodded.

The next day, Kakashi was walking towards the markets of Konoha as someone called out to him as he knew who it was. "Naruto, Sasuke. Where are you heading off to?" He asked, "actually, we were trying to find you," Sasuke began. Kakashi stared at the two boys momentarily, "did Gai and Asuma told you something?"

Naruto smirked, "are you really going to propose to her Kakashi?" He asked as Kakashi sighed. "I told them it was a secret," he said as Sasuke blinked, "we heard it from Ino. I guess she has a big mouth since she probably heard it from Asuma," he said as Kakashi groaned. "I'm sure just the rookie nine and the other jounin's, genin's or chunnin's we know only knows about it," Naruto said.

"I just hope Sakura doesn't find out about it," Kakashi murmured.

Sakura smiled happily as she was lent out off the hospital earlier then she expected that very night. Kakashi had told her to be over at his place since he was cooking dinner for the both of them. Before going to Kakashi's place that night, she stopped by Ino's flower shop to go and buy Kakashi some roses.

Ino wasn't on duty that night, which was a relief to Sakura, but her mother was as Sakura paid the roses but notice the smile that she was getting from Ino's mom. Sakura blinked slowly as she turn and walked off to Kakashi's place.

Sakura knocked on the door as the door opened slightly, "I'm glad you can make it Sakura," Kakashi said with a smile as Sakura noticed that he wasn't wearing his mask as she went inside with roses in her arms. "Oh, this is for you," she said blushing as Kakashi got the roses from her, "they are beautiful. It goes with the dinner table," he said as Kakashi gestured her to follow him to the room.

Sakura looked around as she saw that the windows were closed, candles were lit everywhere, rose petals were scattered all over the place, as she saw the table, their were already food on it as well as drinks which was champagne. Sakura saw that their were two chairs at each end of the table, "like what you see?" A voice asked as Sakura jumped.

"I'm sorry, did I scared you?" Kakashi asked as Sakura turned and saw Kakashi coming from the kitchen with the vase in his hands as he had put the roses in them, "I thought..." Sakura began as she had a puzzle look on her face and she looked at her right and saw that nobody was their and Kakashi smiled.

"That was a clone my dear," he said as Sakura felt embarrassed and she should have known it was. "Kakashi, how did you paid for all of this?" Sakura asked as she sat on her chair, "what? You didn't think I had money did you?" Kakashi asked chuckling. "Well, aside that you buy those perverted books that Jiraiya writes, I wouldn't think you have some left," Sakura teased.

Kakashi glared at her for a moment as Sakura chuckled, "well, why don't we eat our dinner, shall we?" Kakashi asked as he went to the other side of the table to sit down. After awhile, Sakura looked up at Kakashi before asking: "Kakashi, what is this about? Is their something special you want from me?"

Kakashi sighed as he knew that she was going to be suspicious, "I thought I was going to do this at the end of the meal, but seeing you suspicious and everything..." he began as he stood up and stood in front of Sakura who was staring at him in awe. He knelt down as he took out the small, black box in his pocket and he opened it revealing a small diamond ring that made Sakura gasped.

"Will you marry me, Sakura Haruno?" Kakashi asked as he waited patiently for her answer, too nervous as he watched her. "Of course I will!" Sakura said as she hugged him tightly and Kakashi took her hand and put the ring in her middle finger, "you made me a new man and realize that you are the one for me instead of Rei all this time," he said slowly as the two kissed.

"So, this is why I was getting 'looks' from everyone," Sakura said as Kakashi returned to his seat and the two begun eating once again. "What do you mean?" He asked as Sakura chuckled nervously, "everywhere I go today before I came here, people are like staring at me in a smiling face, yea know?"

"It must had been Ino and Asuma," Kakashi grumbled as Sakura smirked. "You wanted this a secret?" Sakura asked as Kakashi looked at her, "well, not really. Not until I was ready to tell everyone," he explained with a smile as Sakura smiled back and the two couldn't wait for their wedding day.
