...Kakashi kissed Naru, his girlfriend, senseless. He was just about to move on from kissing to more interesting activities when he noticed the bags under her eyes. Sighing, he asked her to stay and take a nap with him. She reluctantly agreed and was soon out cold.

ASSIGNED TO: SOLO: Hatake Kakashi, Rokudaime Hokage


His target in sight, Kakashi moved slowly like a predator in silence. This mission would not be his most difficult by a long shot, but it was one that needed to be completed in order to succeed in his ultimate ambition. How many times he had to go after the target was unimportant at this time; the success of this particular mission was not only imperative to his goals, but the man himself could honestly say that he found this expedition to be exciting! And it's been a long time I've been this excited about a mission

The last time he attempted - and succeeded - in fulfilling the objectives of this particular part of the ongoing mission, it had really been a fluke. At that time, the mission hadn't even been assigned. Something he considered? Oh, yes, without a doubt: he could honestly say that he'd been thinking about it daily - multiple times a day, really. But after that first sweet taste of success, he knew that he had to do it again, and soon. He got farther than he thought he would last time. Things had gotten so heated; he'd nearly lost control of the situation. That was not something that anyone would believe of him, he knew. Even he, himself, was surprised by his "inspired" actions.

Creeping lower and lower, he reached out toward the sleeping target's heart. His ungloved hand hovering just above his target, he reached out and skillfully unbuttoned Naru's first button. Success! As fun as this is, I may really do need a hobby - aside from Icha Icha. Internally, he laughed at himself. If anyone else ever knew of his private little game, the one he was currently playing by himself? He'd probably be laughed out of Konoha!

More successes. Naru remained asleep and unknowing of his accomplishments as he moved toward the completion of his mission. Fingers on her bra, ready to pull down the cup, he was interrupted.

"Did I give you permission to molest me in my sleep, Hatake?" came a deep, sleepy voice.

Ooo: she called me by my last name. He wasn't sure whether to be scared or turned on! He was already the latter and had been since even before this exasperating and beautiful woman climbed into his bed! HIS BED for Kami's sake! What does she expect from me?! He's only a human: a man… a perverted man, as she liked to remind him. "Maa, how are you feeling Naru-chan?"

"Did you even sleep, or have you been at me this the whole time?" Naru asked as she glared at him.

"Maa..."

"Don't you 'Maa,' me, you pervert!" Naru interrupted hotly. Kakashi began snickering as he laid his head down on her chest.

"Ne, Naru… You said 'Maa me.' So, mommy: how about you breastfeed..."

"You freaking pervert! Honest to Kami! How does anyone put up with you?!" She was doing her best to wrestle him down: to get away and punch his lights out, but he was just so damn strong. Even while snorting and laughing his ass off at her, he was much too strong.

"Alright, alright: I surrender, my lady," Kakashi said as he sat on top of her knees, holding her hands out on each side of her body. "Maa, are you SURE you want me to surrender?" He gave her a huge, mischievous, and somewhat fanged grin.

Naru huffed. "Let go of me…" She ignored his muttering of the word "never." Continuing, she sighed and said, "I'm sure." She wouldn't have been, had he just been a little polite - like that would happen! She'd definitely settle for normal! Raging pervert!

Kakashi flopped down on top of her in a heap. He wrapped his arms around her tightly and looked down at her cute little face. She's like a hissing kitten right now, he thought. "Maa, I'm sorry. Well, I'm not. Gomen… but - I'm not!"

"Goof! What kind of village leader giggles like that?"

"Me," Kakashi said cheekily with a proud smile on his face. He used his knee to bounce on the bed, pulling his prey even closer to land them facing one another on their sides. He rubbed his head in her hair, taking in her scent and mixing it with his own, not letting her move away. When she gave him another annoyed huff, he finally admitted it. "I was bored. Gomen, Naru-chan." He kissed her head and waited for her to look up at him. When she did, he knew he was forgiven. Her face was screwed up in faux anger until she rolled her eyes then pouted. Good: mission still ongoing! "Did you sleep well?"

"I guess so? Well, I was sleeping well until a known and rampant pervert interrupted me! You should send some ninjas out to capture him," she said as she tried to look serious.

"No can do. Perverts are the best people, after all." Thinking of just how that sounded, Kakashi frowned. "Good proper perverts, Naru-chan. Not the… other ones, ne?" He didn't hear her answer to that, although he did make out some of her grumblings. There were definitely the phrases, "masked bastard, what did I do to deserve this, and can't believe… boyfriend." Those were pretty accurate things for her to say so he was satisfied. He kissed around on her head before she finally gave him a break and kissed him back sweetly. He was happy just gazing into her eyes. "Ne, Naru. I've still got another day off. What do you want to do? Are you up for anything or are you still hurting?"

Naru's eyes lit up. "Really? No paperwork or anything? I don't know if I have to see Sakura-chan but…"

"No, I ordered her to take some time off from the hospital. She'll be home with Lee-kun for a while."

The blonde smiled brightly up at him, then pressed her face into his chest. "I'm so glad you did that, Kashi. She was looking really drained, and I don't know if you've noticed - but she gets really scary when she's tired! And if she gets angry? I love her, but I don't know! There are certain things I don't really want to go up against!"

Man is she right about Sakura. Kakashi pulled Naru in even closer to him, thinking about how he loved the little nickname that she'd given him. It beats the shit out of "Kaka," pun intended. "I have to watch out for my cute little students."

"That's so sweet, Kashi," Naru replied, genuinely glad she was with this caring man. A perverted-as-hell caring man, but a good one just the same. Oh, and he's old, too. She giggled internally before considering the weird dream she'd had...

She didn't remember much of it, but there had definitely been voices arguing over her. Big deep voices, not normal at all. What had they said? Meh, it was a dream. Her dreams had been getting weirder over the last couple of weeks, but this one beat them all. You can't do anything about dreams, though, no matter how bizarre they are. Especially when I can't even remember what they were saying or what they even looked like. What a drag. Wait: what?

"Ryo for your thoughts?" Kakashi asked quietly, interrupting the thoughts and questions she just had. She only shook her head and shrugged her shoulders. He'd let up on his death grip a bit so that he could see her face... She was such an open book. He really loved seeing her running emotions and thoughts displayed so sincerely as one expression gradually turned into another. Kami, he loved this woman! Kissing her forehead, he decided to make her happy no matter what. That brought to mind something that would definitely make her happy, although it might take a few years off his own life. "Say, Naru-chan, I've been thinking." He let her up and she looked at him, reaching for his hand. "Why don't I see if I can arrange something - it will take a little while to ensure we're all off…" Naru looked as if she were either going to break into tears or shake right off the bed with excitement. "Maa, I was thinking we could get together with Gai and Lee-kun." The formidable Hokage felt a lump of anxiety in his chest and throat.

I can't believe it! Is this for real?! Naru began to cry. Kakashi sat up even more, looking terribly concerned. That was for naught, though, realizing what was going on when she yelled, "I'm so happy! Thank you, thank you!" She threw herself at the silver-haired man, lying on top of him and kissing him repeatedly.

Mission back on!
