I was absolutely exhausted. Our mission was long and tiring. We had to escort a very sought after jewel merchant from Konoha to the hidden stone village now the bandits weren't the issue. The rocky, hilly, terrible train and horrible weather was the issue. It took us days to finally get there with all his stupid merchandise, which he never failed to constantly try to sell us. Poor Kurenai almost gave in but I had to keep reminding her of what Asuma would think if she spent a whole months worth of wages on some stupid neckless she didn't even need. And now I was exhausting my chakra trying to steal some stupid sword back for Lady Tsunade. This mission was solo. The team and I split yesterday morning going our separate ways. I had to travel another four hours to get to my destination and all I could think was the team was probably already back home. Although I had my Kekkei Genkai down there was lots of room for improvement. For starters going through objects still drained me, not as bad as before but it still tired me out too quickly, something I was working on. After I had retrieved the shitty looking sword I started to make my way back to Konoha. Normally I would be flying through the trees but not today I just didn't have the energy I hadn't slept the night before and I had already been running for several hours without stopping or eating, but I was pushing my hardest. Yes I was eager to get back to Kakashi. But the chunin exams were today..Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke were fighting and that damn bad feeling never left my gut. I couldn't help but remember my conversation with Kakashi before I left.
***FLASHBACK***
"Stop worrying please you've been stressing out for the last two weeks. Everything will be fine baby." Kakashi said kissing my head. We were currently in my bathroom. I was packing to leave and he was helping. It was true I had been worrying about the chunin exams ever since I received that bad feeling in my gut.
"Look I know you keep saying that hun. But it doesn't make me feel better. Those are my kids out there...if anything happens to them I'd never forgive myself."
I said getting lost in the tile on the floor. What could I do...I wouldn't be back till after their fights. If I even got back that day at all. I would've been back before they even started but Lady Tsunade gave me a solo mission that was going to set me back several hours if not the whole day. I would miss everything...I could handle missing it if the sinking pit in my stomach wasn't so strong. Something bad was going to happen and I couldn't stop it.. the more prominent the sinking became the more I felt something bad was going to happen to my three genin..a hand gently forcing me to look up broke my tormented mind. Kakashi was staring at me worried. "Baby...calm down okay I've been talking to you forever until I realized you weren't listening..." He paused gently rubbing my cheeks before pulling me into a hug. "I don't want you going on this mission. Look at you. You're so distracted and tired. I know you didn't really sleep last night I felt you get up. And never come back. What time was it?" I sighed not in the mood to go through all this again. We'd been bickering about it for awhile. I separated from him grabbing my toiletries and walked to my bed shoving them in my bag. Kakashi pushed me to the bed than climbed on top of me causing us to both slightly blush. "I don't want you going like this I'll tell Tsunade to send someone else. And.." I put my hands over his unmasked mouth.
"I can't miss this mission. You know I have that solo one on the way back." I pushed him off me reversing our positions catching the sexy ninja by surprise. I kissed his nose. "I'll be fine. You worry about the kids. Okay?" He sighed before pulling me down on top of him. His lips met mine in a sweet kiss.
"The kids will be fine. I'll be there along with everyone else okay? Now promise you'll be okay?" He pleaded I rolled my eyes and Kakashi started to tickle me causing my bursts of laughter. "Promise?" I couldn't respond for laughing so hard and grabbed his hand's finally stopping his assault on my poor ticklish sides.
"I PROMISE! Now stop tickling me!" He laughed before pulling me into another kiss that turned into a make out session.
***END FLASHBACK PRESENT TIME***
God I hope he was right. It was way past four before I even hit the land of fire...damn I still had another three hours of running to go and my poor legs were begging for a break, burning and tingling with ever jump I ignored it. I didn't have time for breaks I needed to get home..to see that everyone was okay. That my kiddo's were safe and my boyfriend was intact. It felt like an eternity before I finally stumbled through the Konoha gates. My feet were numb and my legs felt like jelly. I was breathing raggedly as my lungs burned with every breath. I didn't stop not once. I ran for ten hours straight I'd be super proud if I wasn't hurting so bad and if the village didn't look so empty. There were no guards at the gate and town was completely dead. That sinking feeling came at me full force...oh no what was going on ...somethings happened. I trudged to the exam arena before finally collapsing. I couldn't go any father my body wouldn't cooperate anymore so I leaned against the building still trying to catch my breath when I heard a familiar voice call out to me. "Y/n! You're back! What happened." Kurenai was kneeling beside me inspecting the damage. I was starving not to mention my chakra was pretty low and I was completely wiped, unable to move an inch. I winced when Kurenai touched my foot.
"Oh god Y/n your feet..." She gasped setting my foot down gently but it felt more like she'd slammed it to the floor. "Where...pant...is everyone?"
I asked between heavy breaths. She continued to look at my feet in silence. My chest tightened. "Kurenai?" I said more stern. She looked away than stood up.
"You need some serious medical attention. And well...as for what's going on I'll let Kakashi explain. Just sit tight I'll be right back."
She walked away leaving me confused and irritated but a small weight lifted, if she was getting Kakashi that meant he was okay. I pulled out a cigarette and puffed on it hoping the nicotine would keep me awake. After about twenty minutes Kakashi came running to me but no one followed behind him. I gave him a small smile when he walked over. "Hi babe." I said tiredly. He didn't respond instead his attention was on my now aching feet. I hadn't looked at them and to be honest I was afraid too. He picked my left foot up gently but I still hissed they hurt bad very bad I knew I couldn't walk.
"Oh my god Y/n your fucking feet what happened?" I shrugged causing the silver haired Jonin to sigh. "I'm not letting this slide what happened?" He repeated angrily. Yes Kakashi was a intimidating guy, but I didn't see him that way his anger was actually pretty cute. Which only made him more mad when I didn't do or react the way he wanted. I sighed pulling out another cigarette and lighting it. He still didn't speak waiting for my answer.
"I may or may not have run here for ten hours straight after I finished my mission without stopping because that bad feeling I told you about wouldn't go away."
He sighed setting my foot down which again caused me to hiss. Kakashi closed his eye than ran his hand through his hair.
"Why babe? I get you were worried but...well...I guess you had a reason to be." He stopped than turned around securing me on his back. The movement hurt so bad I felt tears stinging my eyes. I groaned and tightened my hold around his neck once he stood and started for the hospital.
"What happened? Are the kids alright?" He didn't respond to my question making me feel worse. "K..Kakashi? The kids. Are they okay?"
"If your asking if they're still breathing and alive than yes their fine. But I'll explain things once we get to your house. Okay?" I nodded reluctantly. But he was hard headed and fighting right now would be pointless. As we entered the hospital Sakura almost ran right into Kakashi. She looked up in surprise than seen me on his back. She noticed my feet and her eyes widened. "Y/n sensei...y..your feet they look awful." She mumbled. "That's what everyone keeps telling me kid." I sighed. Kakashi sat me down in a chair that was in the waiting room. "I'll be right back. Sakura." He paused turning to the young shinobi. "Remember what we talked about. Yes?" He raised his eyebrow at her and she nodded. He than turned back to me. "I'll go check you in stay here. Sakura don't let her move." I scoffed "Like I could walk if I wanted to. Bossy pants." I retorted a bit irritated at the grumpy ninja. I had no clue what had happened but it was putting him in a mood. Kakashi walked away to the nurses station. I turned to Sakura and placed a hand on her tired shoulder. "Did you guys pass the exams?" She nodded yes. "Lady Tsunade told us a little bit ago." "Well." I nudged her. "Tell me what happened."
I smiled causing her to return a small one. She took a deep breath before telling me everything that happened. I was so proud of Naruto. And Sakura they did an awesome job. But when she started to tell me about Sasuke I could tell she was leaving out big gaps of information. This must be what Kakashi had talked to her about earlier. "What happened to your feet Y/n sensei?" I still didn't know how they looked and I would refuse to look until I was some what healed. Now blood and shit like that didn't bother me. But with my feet already feeling like they'd been set on fire I feared looking at them would only make the pain worse.
"Not much kid. I was just rushing to get back to you guys. I had a feeling something would go wrong. And with the way everyone is acting I can tell that feeling was right." I sighed leaning my head against the wall than patted the top of Sakuras head while closing my eyes completely exhausted.
"Good job Sakura I'm proud of you. I'm sorry I missed everything that happened." I let my hand fall to my lap. "Thank you." The little pink haired shinobi said while hugging me gently. What had happened while I was gone? It obviously wasn't good. Kakashi finally came back than picked me up bridal style. I would normally blush at this shit but I was too damn tired. "Sakura why don't you go home?" Kakashi said before carrying me to a room. "I'll see you later kiddo." I said waving to her in Kakashi's arms. He set me on a bed and a nurse came in I recognized her right away, if I was right her name was Kira or something she'd seen me a lot over the years. "Hello miss Uchiha. It's been a little while huh? Now let's take a look at those feet." She set her clipboard on the bed side table before walking over to me and examining my feet. She touch them lightly here and there. I had to grit my teeth to keep from wining. But when she took my shoes off I yelped unable to keep it in.
"Sorry...their pretty bad I won't lie. I can heal the superficial wounds but the deeper ones will have to heal on their own." She started healing me than. Man I never thought the warm feeling of chakra could feel so good. Once she was done she picked up her clipboard writing a few notes before handing me a piece of paper.
"This is for your discharge oh and you need to take a week off to rest. I want you back in here by the end of that week for a final check up you know the drill."
I sat there dumbfounded for a moment. "Wait! A week?" I asked but she only smiled apologetically at me getting closer to the door. "Sorry you know the rules."
She said before leaving the room. Ahhhh man I was grounded for a week. I dropped my head in defeat than sighed. "This blows." I mumbled. I could tell Kakashi stepped in front of me because his sandals appeared in my view. "Ready to go home?" I nodded. He bent down and I clung to his back. Neither of us spoke for awhile after we left the hospital until the Hokages building appeared beside us. "I need to update Lady Tsunade on my mission." "Do it another day. She's busy ." He responded coldly...was he... mad at me? For hurting myself? Or because of what happened? Or was he mad because I hadn't made it there in time to help? What was going on... I remained silent lost in the thoughts that all this was my fault. I should have stayed, try to warn more people anything was better than Kakashi thinking I was a failure or worse hate me... We reached my house and he pulled out a key unlocking the door quickly. Once we were inside he set me on the couch before going down stairs without a word. The urge for a cigarette hit and I looked to my feet they were pretty beat up still but I wanted a cigarette and with the mood Kakashi was in I didn't wanna bother asking him. I stood wincing silently. The pain was pretty bad but I could bear it. After all I've been through worse. After my slow trek upstairs I finally made it to the balcony collapsing in a chair. It was pretty late I hadn't eaten anything still and my lack of sleep was pulling at my vision causing it to blur slightly. But my mind was racing keeping me hyper wired. My body was done but my mind had other plans. I was still waiting for Kakashi to explain what was happening and why he was in such a bad mood and I need to know if he was mad at me. The door flew open and Kakashi looked at me with worry at first but than it faded into frustration. "What the hell? Why are you out here? And alone what if something happened? You should of asked me to come out." His tone pissed me off a bit. Who the hell was he to demand I ask permission to leave my home sure I was hurt but that was no excuse. "I didn't know I needed permission to sit on my back porch."
I spat back at him. He looked mad now and like he was about to say something he'd regret but his gaze landed on my eye's and he sighed becoming expressionless.
"Kakashi are you mad at me?" The idea been floating around in my mind since I returned and I needed to know. The way he was acting and treating me, not to mention everyone else, we're they all mad at me for not being there? When he didn't respond my chest tightened. "Look I'm sorry I wasn't there to help with whatever happened. I tried okay? I really did I promise. I'm sorry...I'm so sorry..." I stopped looking down while twiddling with my lighter. I heard Kakashi walk up to me and bend down. I refused to met his gaze. I felt so guilty and I didn't even know why yet. He didn't touch me or speak at first. "Yes I'm mad." My chest tightened even more making it slightly hard to breath. I took slow breaths trying to calm myself as my heart rate sped up. He grabbed my chin forcing me to look up. I tired to free myself but let's face it I was too damn tired.
"I'm not mad at you. I'm mad your last name is Uchiha. I'm mad the sound and sand village tried to take over during the chunin exams."
My eye's flew open in surprise. The sand and sound village? Take over? What?! Those rat bastards were competing in the exams too and took the opportunity to try and stage a take over seriously!? And I missed it!
"I'm mad because what I'm about to tell you is going to really piss you off and I know you'll get upset and you'll want to leave but you can't walk right now and I won't let you. I'm mad because I told you everything would be fine and I was wrong. I'm mad I ignored your concerns about today..."
He trailed off now looking at my hands in my lap. He grabbed them kissing both before pulling them to his chest.
"Do you know Orochimaru?" I had to think about it for a moment. I had heard of him before but where. Than it hit me.
"Yes he was on Jiraiyas and Lady Tsunades team. He's a sannin right? But didn't he like go rouge or something?"
Kakashi sighed while he nodded his head yes. "He came while we were distracted with the sand and sound...he..he cursed Sasuke."
My heart stopped... "But he didn't just want Sasuke...he wanted you too." He pulled me into a hug while still talking. "Never in my life have I ever been so happy about how stubborn you are. I'm so happy you went on that mission. Sasukes fine though I sealed his curse..." Kakashi's words fell on deaf ears because the only thing I could hear was my heart beat racing. My lungs started to burn like I wasn't getting enough air as his earlier words played through my mind over and over. Sasuke was cursed? Why...why..hasn't he been through enough.. haven't we been through enough..hasn't our whole clan been through enough...when would this fucking madness end. His brother murdered our whole clan and now Orochimaru..and I hadn't done a single thing stop any of it I was always late, always getting there after the damage had already been done. I should of been there for him more. Acted like a better family figure anything...and now his whole life was over..he was marked by a mad man...My breath was now just short quick gasps while I thought about all the death and destruction that surrounded the Uchiha name. We were a curse... our whole existence was a curse. My head started pounding and my vision started to blur, I started to feel dizzy and numb. The last thing I remembered was Kakashi's worried face looking down at me before complete darkness.
***3RD POV***
Kakashi paced Y/n's bedroom floor it'd been over ten hours and she was still passed out on the bed. He was debating on wether to take her back to the hospital or not. He remembered how helpless he felt when she started hyperventilating in front of him having a full blown panic attack than passing out. He couldn't do anything to stop it... Y/n made a small noise catching his attention. He walked to the bed and sat down beside her watching as her chest slowly rose and fell small breaths escaping her slightly parted lips. He pushed some hair from her face before stroking the beautiful woman's cheek. He sighed. She was gorgeous in every way from her delicate lashes all the way to her poor small injured feet. Who knew such a small person could consume him completely. She had a hold of him and he would die for her in an instant. But what was he going to do with her...he wanted to take the pain away but that would take time..he would heal her with time. If he had time. Kakashi remember yesterdays events well and the one with Orochimaru stuck out the most.
***FLASH BACK KAKASHIS POV***
I ran as fast as I could through the tunnels under the arena. The only thing going through my mind was Y/n was right something bad did happen today. The fucking Sand and Sound villages were trying to over throw the Hokage right in the middle of the Chunin exams. I made sure Naruto and Sakura were safe but Sasuke went missing after his unfinished match. I traced him with my Sharingan and the closer I got the more worried I became once I finally reached Sasukes location I found him on the ground writhing in pain I bent down beside him and saw a burning mark on the right side of his neck. Before I could touch him he spoke.
"Orochimaru wants her too. He wants us all." Was all he said before passing. Fuck! Why? What the hell did that even mean? I picked up Sasuke and rushed him to the hospital. Once he was patched up I sealed his curse mark while cursing myself over and over again. Orochimaru fucked with one of my students. Y/n's only family and he wanted her as well. I would protect her nothing would happen. I've already lost too many..I wont lose anyone else. Especially not her..anyone but her..I left him in the hospital after explaining to him what happened he didn't say much and I had to leave to join my fellow ninja to take back the village. It didn't take long actually they were sloppy and unorganized the leaf over powered them easily. I returned to the arena to help clean up the mess. Thoughts were racing through my mind. First thank god Y/n was so fucking stubborn and went on her mission against his wishes. She'd missed all this stupid chaos. And was out of harms way for now.. Second Orochimaru wanted her as well as Sasuke. And if he was able to sneak into the village so easily whose to say he won't pull something like this again..and finally third. I was scared shitless. What did that twisted bastard want with his girlfriend and Sasuke? What was he planning...Kurenai broke my thoughts as she ran up to me breathing heavily. "Y' n's back."
***END OF FLASH BACK 3RD POV***
Y/n groaned while stretching, flinching when she stretched her toes out. Kakashi stroked her cheek lightly causing her beautiful lashes to flutter until her pale blue orbs locked on his naked face. A smile pulled at her lips as she caught his hand bringing it to her chest. "Morning sweetie." She said tenderly. Kakashi laid an kiss on her forehead. "How are you feeling?"
He watched his girlfriend blush than turn her face from him. "I'm fine. I think the exhaustion and stress just got to me...and I forgot to take my evening dose.."
"So you're alright? Do you remember what I told you yesterday?" She nodded solemnly before standing she wobbled a bit but held her hand out to stop Kakashi who was ready to catch her. He watched as Y/n slowly walked to the bathroom and shut the door turning the shower on. He sighed. She remembered what happened..he wondered how she felt about everything. Hell he wasn't even sure how to feel other than mad and a bit scared too. Poor Sasuke had been cursed and Kakashi wasn't able to stop it. Another thought kept playing in his mind though... what if Y/n had been there? Would the same thing have happened to her? A shiver crept down his spine as he pushed the thought away. Y/n sat on the shower floor with her knees pulled to her chest. She was still really overwhelmed but the only thing she could think of was Sasuke. She needed to see him... speak to him, apologize for not being there. She finished her shower quickly and wrapped a towel around her before peeking outside. Kakashi wasn't in her room anymore so she stepped out running to the door and locking it. After she dressed and brushed her hair the white haired shinobi walked upstairs with difficulty. It was still pretty hard to get around. Kakashi turned on the couch as he watched Y/n trudge up the stairs. She collapsed beside him. "I'm over this already." She said crossing her arms over her chest while huffing. Kakashi couldn't help but snicker.
"Can I see him." Y/n asked while looking at the floor. She needed to see Sasuke now. So if Kakashi said no she'd leave anyways and he knew this.
"After we eat okay?" She nodded and he stood going to the kitchen. "Stay I'll be right back." Kakashi called over his shoulder once he disappeared up the stairs. They both ate in silence finishing quickly. She watched her silver haired boyfriend grab their plates than go back to the kitchen to clean the mess. He put her on his back and they left towards the hospital. Y/n smoked on the way trying to think of what to say to Sasuke. She was seriously thinking of asking him to move in. Their was plenty of room at her place he wouldn't have to fend for himself or be alone anymore. Y/n didn't know if she was cut out to be a guardian but she would try. That is, if he even accepted her offer. Once they reached the hospital Y/n stubbornly demanded to be put down claiming she could walk on her own. Kakashi sighed putting her down but pulled her into a hug before he released. They walked to the nurses station. "Which room is Sasuke Uchiha in please. I'm family."
Y/n said to Kakashi's surprise. Sure they were family but neither of them really made a big deal out of it. He raised an eyebrow a bit curious. She smiled back to him. "It's room 12 on the second floor." The nurse said never looking up from her files. They made their way to the room when a familiar voice came from the other side of the door. "Are you sure you're alright Sasuke-kun?" Y/n smiled knowing it was Sakura. She pushed open the door to see Sakura sitting beside Sasukes bed and a sleeping Naruto in a chair by the wall. The blacked haired shinobi had an annoyed look on his face until he spotted Y/n. He held back a smile but nodded to his sensei. She'd been gone for a week and missed everything that went down. Yet for some reason she looked tired and was limping. Sakura got up to let Y/n sit beside him before she could speak Kakashi did. "Hey Naruto get up." The silver haired shinobi said while picking up the snoring blonde who refused to move. "Sakura why don't we give them a minute." He looked to Y/n and winked. She mouthed thank you and watched as everyone left closing the door behind them. Than Y/n looked at Sasuke guilt filling her heart. He looked a bit rough and even though he was holding it together, he had to be a bit worried at least. "Stop." The young ninja said while she looked at him confused having not moved or even uttered a word yet. "I can see the look on your face. It's not your fault." He huffed looking away unable to stand the sadness in her eyes. They were family yes. But they had only met a few months ago. They didn't know each other prior to her becoming his sensei. At first he treated her like everybody else. But after awhile her hard training sessions and pushing along with the no nonsense attitude grew on him, not to mention she was stubborn and seemed to be the only one who was keeping the whole team glued together. Sasuke had to admit he liked her and admired her drive as a ninja. She made things better for him and they had gotten pretty close over the last couple of months together. She had a hard shell but was soft on the inside and only wanted the best for them. This curse mark had nothing to do with her it was all him. No it was Itachi he was the cause of all this. "Sasuke can I ask you a question?" He nodded. "Do you..maybe wanna move in with me?" Sasuke looked at his sensei in surprise the question had come out of no where and the look she was returning meant she was serious. "I..I don't know. We're family. I may not be a sister or an awesome guardian. I'm not that great with kids. But we should stick together.."
She looked down unsure how to make him see it from her side. "You're still a kid but you take care of yourself...and you know my house is huge. You can still come and go as you please. There might be a few rules but just normal stuff pick up after yourself..you know things you probably already do now..I just don't want you to be alone I don't know..." The words escaped her and she started to feel stupid for even bringing it up. When the silence started to linger Y/n wanted to smack herself. Here she was a so called family member waltzing into his life out of no where after he gets hurt it probably upset him...
"Really?" He asked looking at her stunned. She smiled while nodding. "Yes. I'm serious. You can stay as long as you like! I can cook dinner for you we can train together more, stay up watching movies, maybe even track down how were related who knows." She shrugged. Sasuke looked down at his hands. Y/n wish she knew what he was thinking but the wait wasn't long. "Wouldn't I be putting you out? I don't really have money to help with expenses."
Y/n put her finger over his mouth shutting him up. "Kid I've been on some pretty hardcore missions. And I have plenty of money trust me. Plus I'm still working, two jobs actually you wouldn't be costing me a thing I swear. I've thought this through. If there's something you should know about me by now Sasuke its the fact that if I didn't want you to move in I wouldn't of asked." He watched her expression for a minute before finally responding.
"O..okay." Was all he could say before his sensei pulled him into a tight hug.
Kakashi was surprised by his girlfriends words. He was thankful Sakura had left to get a drink and Naruto was still passed out on the hallway floor. Y/n hadn't mentioned anything to him about wanting Sasuke to move in before. But in a way he slightly understood, they'd both been through hell and back and had a bond of understanding with each other from that loss and now something else bad had happened, so she was a bit panicked. He really did understand but how would this affect their relationship? They hadn't told anyone yet on account they were planning on sharing the news when she got back. Of course after all of the previous events the news was probably best kept secret until things calmed down a bit...but with Sasuke there could he still come over or spend the night? The door slid open causing Kakashi to jump. Y/n peeked her head out than smiled when she found him. She grabbed his hand walking him into the room. "Where's Sakura?"
"She went to get a drink." He replied a bit confused. She nodded. "You stay. I'll be right back." His girlfriend said before walking out the door. He heard her talking to Naruto. "Oi! Naruto get up dude. Come on get up." Kakashi smiled listening to her struggle with the blonde boy. "Oh Sakura good timing wake up Naruto for me will you? Than come to the room me and Kakashi have something to talk to you guys about." The door slide open again and she returned walking up to Kakashi and standing on her tippy toes to whisper in his ear. "I know you probably heard my earlier conversation. And well if this is going to work we need to let the kids know we're together. I'm definitely not going to be sneaking you in and out of my own home right? Is that okay with you babe?"
She asked standing normal looking at him hopeful. He blushed slightly under his mask but nodded. Kakashi was actually pretty excited to tell someone about their relationship, they'd been hiding it for awhile now and he was about to burst. He remembered an infuriating run in with Genma earlier this week.
***small flashback 3rd pov***
They ran into each other at Ichiraku's. When both ninjas spotted each other they nodded but before Kakashi could sit down Genma waved him over. "Hey captain whatcha been up too?" The silver haired ninja looked at the idiot for a moment before finally deciding to sit down with him. Sure they had been on the same team. Kakashi never liked how chummy he always was with Y/n. She was nice to him but never showed interest in his advances. And with Kakashi as captain he always made sure she never got to be alone with the idiot shinobi. Back than he didn't understand why Genma's interest in Y/n bothered him, but now that they were a couple he understood. He liked her even back than.
"I'm not your captain. I'm not even in the Anbu anymore remember?" Kakashi responded bored. Genma laughed stupidly than rubbed the back of his head.
"Right. I forgot." Kakashi rolled his eye while staring at the menu. He thought it was odd Genma would invite him to eat together since they hadn't spoken since the silver haired Jonin left the Anub. "Oh..uhmmm. I actually have a question to ask..it's about Y/n." Kakashi peeked over the menu at Genma not liking were the conversation was heading. "I know you guys are close and all that. I wanted to pick your brain." The irritated shinobi responded with a strained hum trying to keep a bored expression on his face this prompted Genma to continue. He was use to the mans way of interacting. "Right. Well uh. You know if I might have a chance with her?" Kakashi's grip on the menu tightened. This mother fucker was asking if his girlfriend was willing to give this idiot a chance. He wanted to say 'hell no she's mine.' But held his tongue knowing they were waiting for her to return. So for now he'd play along. "Hmm. Dunno. I'm pretty sure she's into girls." Was all he said while ordering his food. He looked at Genma who was looking back in shock. "A..are you serious?" He questioned not sure if he should believe his old captains words. Kakashi shrugged.
"Maybe you should ask her." Genma thought about it for a moment. She didn't seem that way but Kakashi knew her better and they hung out all the time. And Y/n was smoking hot yet she wasn't dating anyone maybe the man was right. "Nah..you know better than me. Why do all the sexy ones have to be out of reach right?" He laughed nervously. But Kakashi wasn't really listening while he chocked back his laughter.
***End of flash back. Present time. 3rd Pov***
Oh yes Kakashi was definitely ready to spill about their relationship before any other men decide she was attractive too and asked him for dating advice. Once everyone entered the room and settled down Y/n spoke. "Okay guys. I know a lot has happened recently but me and Kakashi have something to tell you." She paused grabbing his hand pulling him closer to her. "We're dating." She finished giving them a closed eye smile. The silver haired ninja had to hold back laughter as the kids stared back at them with wide eyes. "Wait...YOU'RE SERIOUS!OH MY GOD!" Sakura punched the screaming Naruto making him shut up. Than she hugged Y/n. "I'm so happy for you guys! I'm surprised it took this long though." The pink haired ninja said while nodding to herself. Y/n looked at Sasuke who still seemed a bit confused but nodded. After another hour or so of answering endless questions Naruto and Sakura left, leaving Kakashi and Y/n alone with Sasuke in his hospital room.
"I thought you should know before you moved in. It'd be awkward if you found out afterwards." Y/n said to Sasuke plainly. There was no way she was going to hid their relationship in her own home plus he would of found out eventually anyways. Sasuke nodded. "I'm not really surprised honestly. Kakashi sensei always seemed to have a thing for you anyways. Do you live together?" Kakashi blushed at the comment. And watched Y/n shake her head no. She laughed nervously while running her hand through her hair. "N...no. Not yet. We just started recently dating."
The white haired girl stated while looking at her boyfriend who was sitting in a chair now looking out the window. His gaze seemed to fall a little a her words but he remained silent feigning he wasn't listening. She smiled knowing that he was fully invested but didn't want to voice his opinion. "But that doesn't mean he won't be in the future. Of course his moving in wouldn't affect you staying with us in the least I promise." Kakashi perked up a bit after that. And Y/n stayed silent letting Sasuke absorb her words. He nodded. "Uhm..when do you want me to move in?" She scrunched her eyebrows together in thought. His question was unexpected because she hadn't given that part much thought yet. "Uhm how about when you get released?" "Okay that sounds good."
She nodded smiling. This new task was going to be a challenge but she was ready to rise to the occasion!
