OMG! It's been a while! Sorry for the delay, guys. School is bananas right now, but I decided to take the time to edit this during a study break. One thing was brought to my attention by the wonderful KibouNoKuro: Kakashi tends to be indecisive in most KakaSaku fanfictions. I personally think that is out of character for him, and you won't see it here. Enjoy and let me know what you think!

The Cat is Out of the Bag

"Alright, Forehead. Spill!"

"Spill what, Pig?"

"Oh, don't play dumb Sakura! I know you and Kakashi have something going on!"

Sakura put down her mostly eaten pint of ice cream and looked at Ino, who was watching her expectantly.

"Ino. I'm being serious when I say what I tell you cannot leave this room. Kakashi is the Hokage. This is not topic for gossip." Ino's mouth dropped open as Sakura continued.

After a few moments, she screeched "I knew it!"

"Keep your voice down, Pig! It's after ten!"

"Sorry! But oh my God! Forehead! How did you snag Kakashi as a sex partner?" Sakura looked at Ino in confusion.

"I haven't slept with him, Pig. We're dating, but nothing's happened yet."

"Wait… you two are serious?! I thought you were just sleeping together!"

"No, Ino. I'm going to marry Kakashi, have his children, the whole nine yards. No time soon, mind you. But it will happen." Sakura confirmed quietly.

"Oh my God!"

"Pig, shut up!"

"Sorry! I just can't believe this! But if it's this serious, why are you keeping it a secret?"

Sakura sighed as she pushed away the rest of her ice cream. She'd finally lost her appetite. "Because Kakashi is the Hokage. Gossip is bound to follow due to our previous and current connections."

"Meaning that people will talk shit because in their eyes, you're just fucking your teacher?"

"Nailed it right on the head, Pig." Sakura responded dryly.

"Does anybody else know?" "Probably Captain Yamato, but Ino, you've got to keep this a secret. You can't tell Sai, or Shikamaru, or Choji or that bitch he's with okay?"

Ino rolled her eyes as she nodded and confirmed that she wouldn't shout it from the rooftops. Ino was preparing to respond when a knock on the door made her pause.

Sakura rolled her eyes as she rose. "I've never been so popular." This time, the peep hole displayed a cloaked Sauske. Heart failure was really in her future if the men in her life didn't stop startling her. Sakura opened the door.

"Sauske? What are you doing here?" She asked incredulously.

"We need to talk."

"…About what? Sauske, you've spent most of our lives pretending that I don't exist."

Sauske just looked at her impassively. Ino rose with her purse in hand and walked towards the door.

"Sai should be home by now. See ya!"

"Ino!" Sakura called out as the blonde sped walked down the road.

Sakura turned back to Sauske. "Well, you might as well come in."
