Sudeki da ne? Chapter 3

A/N: 1) Sorry for the slow update. 2) Sorry for the short chapter. 3) Sorry for making this list.
I needed time to think, and I still do since I'm making up an h-core OC. Oh so much drama.


Apparently Kakashi liked ice cream. A lot.

Although this was relatively new information, Sakura waited patiently for his return. Recently, the sensei has failed to surprise her with his strange obsessions and hobbies. For the past year he has become more comfortable in showing his 'true' self, only for Sakura of course. And she's not complaining. However, there is so much more to discover about this mysterious man.

He returned minutes later with two large cones, one in each hand, and a slight bounce in his step. Offering one casually to the young girl, he smiles at the flavor he picked out just for her. Sweet strawberry. As for himself, vanilla hits the spot.

She accepts the treat shyly, blush evident upon her cheeks, and thanks him quietly.

"Care to join me?" He asks.

"Hm? Where?" She was eyeing the treat curiously, and apparently not paying much attention.

The jounin didn't answer, merely started walking away. She had no choice but to get up and follow. It was late in the afternoon, and everyone was heading home. Likemost days, Kakashi walks the girl home... in silence.As they continued on their way, Sakura noticed that he hadn't touched the cool creamy substance yet, and she had a feeling why.

"So, how are ya gonna eat that?" She asked with a smile as she licked her own sweet treat. He glanced at her for a moment, blinked, and looked ahead again.

"Really fast."

"Aww, come on Kakashi..." She pouted. "Just take off that mask."

"I will when it's time."

"When it melts?"

"Precisely."

The girl jumped in front of him, one hand on her hip, the other still holding the cone up to her face. While impatiently taping her foot and with her expression, gave it all away that she was annoyed and rather fed-up with the person in her presence.

"Why won't you let me see your face?"

"What gave you that impression?"

"The fact that you won't eat when I'm around--"

"I don't eat around most people."

"You can't even eat a simple ice cream around me--"

"In fact, I hardly eat."

"Kakashi..." Her voice became soft, and she took a step forwards. "Do you like me?"

He awkwardly cleared his throat as the girl approached.

"Of course--"

"You don't, do you." Another step brought them even closer. "That's why you won't show me."

"Sakura--"

"KAKA-SENSEII!" A shout forced them meters apart in a matter of milliseconds, and a yellow haired boy happily skipped over. In a few moments, after controlling his breathing, the newcomer continued unaware of what he just interrupted. "Guess wha—is that ICE CREAM?"

At the same time the couple offered theirs to Naruto, as long as it helped shut him up. But the sensei won by shoving his into the boy's hand and sauntering away. Sakura stayed behind feeling quite hurt at the abrupt ending to their little 'date'. She hates it when he leaves like that. It makes her think, will he be back? Will there be a time when he doesn't come back to her?

"Man, what's up with him?"

"Here, Naruto." The kunoichi gave him her treat and quickly followed after Kakashi, completelyblind to what she was getting herself into.

"I didn't even get to tell Kaka-sensei that there was someone waiting for him." The boy shrugged while taking a bite out of his teammates cone first, then his sensei's. "Oh well, they're heading the right way anyways."
