Whoopsies, it's been a week. ^^" Aha. Myyyy bad. I had homework. :S So yeah. Apparently, schoolwork come before writing. _ Oh well.
And yes, MAJOR time skip 'cause I have writer's block problems even after just a week...(: And I'm using my fancy new laptop! YAY. Happy birthday to me. ^^ The only thing I dislike about using the laptop though is that my wrist keeps touching the touchpad and highlighting things. D: Grumble grumble.
Onward with the story! Again, standard disclaimer- I still own only my dear Keiko.(:
==TIME SKIP--
It'd been a month since our ramen breakfast and many things have happened. missions, training, etc. Naruto and I had grown even closer, and the same goes for the "relationship" between me and Kashi-kun. Although I wish things were a bit different, I'm happy with my current situation. I've met more people in Konoha that I didn't know before and I've also become closer with old friends from before I left. I'm greatly enjoying my new life here.
One morning, I awoke to find Naruto staring at me. He's been sneaking into my house more and more lately, which I find both creepy and sweet.
"You're finally awake!" He said, smiling down at me. I smiled back and yawned.
"And you're in my house again." I said somewhat sarcastically, smirking at the young Uzumaki, who scratched the back of his head.
"Aha. Sorry. Sort of lonely living alone, right? So, to be less lonely, I sneak in here.." He blushed a little.
I laughed. "It's okay Naruto-kun. I'm lonely too I guess. How about this - any time you're lonely, come find me, yeah?" He grinned.
"Okay!" He fist pumped, making me laugh again. "I'll let you get ready now." He walked into the living room to let me shower and dress.
After I finished preparing myself, Naruto and I headed out for the training grounds, where the team was to meet. To do what you may ask? To train of course!
Once there, we saw that everyone else was already there, even Kashi-kun.
"Took you long enough." Sasuke grumbled.
Kakashi nodded in agreement. "Yes, they are late, aren't they. Maybe they should be punished?"
Naruto and I panicked. "But you're late all the time!" I screamed.
"What? No!" Naruto shouted.
"I was just joking." Kashi looked amused. "Today, we're sparring." And it began.
First, Sasuke and Sakura sparred, and, of course, Sasuke won. Then, Naruto against Sakura, ending with Naruto losing. When Naruto and Sasuke sparred, Sasuke won again. Naruto freaked out, randomly accusing the other two of cheating and other things. After Kakashi shut him up, we all split up, our work over for the day. However, before I could get away, Naruto popped up behind me. He linked his left elbow with mine and his right elbow with Kakashi's and grinned evilly. He knew how I felt about Kakashi.
Dammit, he better not.
Oh, he is. Ha. Finally.
Ugh. Dammit. Dammit. DAMMIT.
Naruto linked my right elbow with Kakashi's left, swooping backwards and doing a handsign. Suddenly, our elbows couldn't separate, at least, couldn't separate more than an inch or two.
"Dammit Naruto!" I screamed as he ran away giggling.I looked up at Kakashi, who looked down at me. "Well? Don't you have a jutsu that can take this off?" I asked him.
He nodded.
"Then use it!" I shouted. He shook his head in reply. "Why not?!" He didn't reply, and walked forward instead. I had to walk with him, arm in arm.
Gag.
What? Your feelings change?
No..but this is embarrassing and cheesy!
Psh. Liar. You probably want to start squealing and hug him or some girly thing like that right about now.
Grr...
"At least tell me where we're going?" I asked, pouting upwards at Kashi-kun.
"My house." He replied in a bit of a monotone.
My eyes widened and I blushed a bright red.
His house? What am I going to do! I'm doomed, doomed, doomed!
After walking in silence for several minutes, we reached his humble abode. We went inside and he dragged me into his room.
Once there, I panicked. "Why don't we go to the kitchen? Or or or...the living room? How 'bout that, eh?" I just wanted to get out of his bedroom!
"No, we're going in here." It was settled.
I shivered and cowered in fear, afraid of what my perverted friend might be planning.
Noticing the shivering, he asked, "You cold?" Receiving no reply, he got his blanket and wrapped it around me.
Then he hugged me, making me jump a little and continue to shiver. It was the most affectionate thing he'd ever done towards me. After a minute or so of being warmed by his blanket and his arms, I stopped shivering. I looked up at him, a faint blush on my cheeks.
"Thank you, Kashi-kun." I muttered quietly before looking down again.
He grunted in response but, to my surprise, didn't let go of me. Deciding to take advantage of the situation, I pulled my left, unlinked arm out from under the blanket and wrapped around Kakashi's side, pulling him a little bit closer. His eye widened a little at first, but then he closed it and held me even closer.
He likes you, he likes you.
Stop ruining my moment!
But, but, but, it's my job!
STIBBIT.
Kakashi and I stood in silent embrace for god-knows-how-long. We only stopped when someone knocked on the door. We let go and parted a bit, both of us blushing. Upon opening the door, we were graced by the presence of Sakura, who was pulling on Naruto's ear.
"I'm sorry!" Naruto yelled repeatedly.
"Just undo the jutsu!" Sakura shouted at him. He did a quick hand sign and Kakashi and my arms were unlinked. Kakashi nodded towards Sakura, who walked away, still pulling on the screaming Naruto's ear. Kakashi and I untangled our arms and backed away from eachother, blushing again.
"That was nice of Sakura.." I said, holding my previously-busy arm and looking down, as I did a lot around Kakashi.
"Yeah." He muttered, doing almost the same exact thing I was.
"Listen--" I said.
"Well--" Kakashi said at the same time.
"Oh, you first." I said smiling.
"Err, ok.." Kakashi replied. "Are you planning to go straight home now?"
"Not really..unless you want me to." I replied, blushing again.
How is it possible for me to actually blush this much?!
I haven't any idea, but it's obviously possible.
"It's your choice." Kakashi muttered, looking down again.
He's acting like you!
Kawaii..
Huh?
Nothing!
"If you want me to stay, I will." I said, taking a few steps closer to him.
"I.." he began. "I'm not sure."
"Oh." I said louder than I thought I would. "Okay.." I was so embarassed.
How could I actually think that he'd want me around?
I felt like crying a little right then and there. As I began walking out the door, Kakashi stopped me.
"I didn't mean it like that.." He sounded a little angry with himself. "I meant..I'm not sure if I want you to stay here with me or go somewhere else with me." Some blulshed showed from under his mask and I smiled.
He's acting like a shy teenager who has a huge crush!
Holy..you're right!
Are you gonna squeal?
Maybe...
"Well, there was this place I've been wanting to visit for a while now, but I haven't found the time to arrange a visit.."
"Where?" He asked curiously.
I was a little afraid of responding with my intended answer, afraid it would trigger bad emotions in Kakashi. Would he be angry? Sad? Would he change his mind about being with me? It was too late to change the place now though.
"Obito's grave.." I whispered. His eye widened for a moment but quickly returned to its normal state.
"Okay." He replied.
"We don't have to go right now though! Not if you don't want to, I mean." I stopped him, surprising myself.
"No, it's okay. We should pay our respects." He seemed incredibly solemn and we walked out the door.
Time for sleep. :3 I'll try and update in a week or two. D: stupid homework, grumble, grumble. x( Bye~
