Week 11: Honesty

Word count: 224

As long as Kakashi had known her, Haruno Sakura was always honest. Well, to him at least. She pretty much shared anything with him; it sometimes made him feel a little guilty for not sharing in return.

The look in her eyes when she complained about Ino or 'girl stuff', and described something new she had read in a medic journal told him that this was for his ears only. She only trusted him with this information. Some of their one-sided conversations painted vivid pictures of things he didn't really want to know of a teenage girl's life; yet he still wanted to listen to them.

Sakura was also honest with her emotions. When she was happy she would give him a smile as bright as the sun; when she was angry, no one could escape her wrath. He would have pointed out to her that being so honest with one's feelings could be fatal in their profession, but then she wouldn't be Sakura.

His Sakura needed to be honest; he actually thought that not being so would ruin her. From experience he knew hiding what you truly felt could bring disastrous repercussions in the future. So while he listened to her summarize a new book she bought, Kakashi selfishly hoped that she could stay this way; his innocent, naïve, short tempered, honest Sakura.


AN: Well it's only been... 4 MONTHS since I last updated. I apologize profusely to those of you who waited for this (I don't paticularly like how it turned out). But here is something to make you feel better: I have the next three drabbles planned, and after them I think the arc during the time skip will be OVER! Yay! I'm typing up two of them while I'm updating this, so I think they'll be out today... but I'm not promising anything.
