Kakashi rubbed the back of his head uncomfortably. He eyed Naruto, looking for some sort of forgiveness.

"Oh my, sorry! Let me help you," Naruto jumped towards the old woman struggling to put up the tent. She smiled sweetly at him, and Kakashi sighed knowing he wasn't bring that kind of joy to Naruto's heart.

"Um, I guess I'll go find us some food," Kakashi sighed again not being noticed. If Naruto truly was giving him the cold shoulder it was working. Kakashi walked slowly into the underbrush looking for some kind of berry bush, or a fruit or nut producing tree. Kakashi couldn't even manage a smile, when within his perverted book. Kakashi stopped and stomped down his foot.

"Okay, Naruto, you want to play hard ball. I'll play hard ball," Kakashi was not giving into Naruto's cold shoulder just yet. He had something else under his sleeve.

"I wonder how your little friend, Kakashi is it, is doing all alone out there by himself," The little old woman was a bit nosey for Naruto's liking.

"He'll be okay. He's just being slow as usual," Naruto jumped when he felt a hand on his back.

"Who are you calling slow? I brought you supper. I hope it's enough for everyone," Kakashi brought back a shirt-full of different shapes, colors, and sizes of berries. Oh coarse they were all okay to eat. In being a ninja you had to know what is eatable and not eatable in the forests.

"Well that looks wonderful. My only question is did you wash them off?," The old woman was sure to turn up her nose to unwashed berries that were found in the forest.

"They look washed to me," Naruto was helping Kakashi from losing his patience of what little patience that he had left with the old woman.

"Yes, they do look shiny. I guess I will try some," The old woman took a small hand-full, and slowly ate the smallest berry, as if she knew it would be the end of her days.

Kakashi sat further away from the little group. His plan was to keep Naruto at a distance to see if he could stand, not just emotional distance, but physical distance as well. He smirked to himself when he caught Naruto constantly looking over his shoulder at him. Kakashi shrugged and pulled out his book. Kakashi was right in the middle of a real touchy feely scene when Naruto interrupted.

"Kakashi-Sensei? She's getting cold. She wants a fire. If you ask me I think she's bit demanding," Naruto was whispering incase the old woman was listening into their conversation.

Kakashi only nodded before putting his book away, and breaking some small braches off a tree. He skillfully placed the branches in a small pile and then set off to find some flint rocks to set spark to the wood.

"Should I come with?," It sounded like Naruto was begging for Kakashi's company.

"No Naruto. You must stay and watch over her. She asked for escorts for a reason," Kakashi wasn't beating around the bush. He just Naruto strait out that he didn't really need his help or company.

"Okay," Naruto sighed and walked back and sat by the older woman.

Naruto tried avoiding conversation at all costs. He flipped on his side, pretended to be looking out for danger, and put rocks around the fire. 'Kakashi were are you? It doesn't take that long to find a pair of stupid rocks. Stop being so lazy and hurry back,' Naruto jumped when he heard the old woman cough. "Are you alright. Are you hurt, or feeling unwell," Naruto jumped to her side.

"No just a small tickle jumping in my throat," This talkative old lady was harsh, but kind at the same time.

"Who's there?," Naruto drew kunai out of his pouch, and took stance in front of the woman incase of the need to protect her.

"Calm yourself Naruto. It's just me. I finally found the flint rocks," Kakashi smiled behind his mask.

Naruto smiled at him thankful he had come back unharmed. Kakashi slowly walked over to the fire and scratched the rocks together time and time again until a large spark leapt onto the wood. Naruto tried to keep his eyes level with the sky but some how his eyes kept creeping back to Kakashi's backside. He smiled inwardly. He quickly pulled his eyes away as Kakashi turned around. Kakashi stretched and sat against a further away tree. Naruto did the small seating himself beside Kakashi watching the old woman intently.

"So, Naruto, tomorrow the mission ends. Got any ideas for when we're done, or get back to the village," Kakashi was prying trying to get into Naruto's head.

Naruto smiled, "Of coarse I have an idea for tomorrow, and all tomorrow night."

Kakashi was shocked of Naruto's strait forwardness. Naruto just smiled, and winked at his sensei. Kakashi smiled back getting that butterfly feeling in his gut again. When he old woman got up from staring into the fire she headed into the tent. Naruto sighed stood up and laid by the fire. Kakashi did the same, but laid on the opposite side of the fire. This was the last night he would have to refuse Naruto if he tried to convince Kakashi into having sex before the mission was over. Kakashi only heard Naruto snoring within a few minuets. Kakashi smiled he wasn't going to have to hurt Naruto anymore. He just wanted a chance to analyze Naruto. To see if he would break his heart like Iruka had. Kakashi wiped his visible eye as tears formed within it. He got up put out the fire, and laid down. He would never truly know if Naruto would break his heart or not!
