Chapter 8
Where it all began, and where it all ended.
Rin stared out at the rain. She had not left the spot for nearly half an hour. Kakashi came and stood next to her, waiting for her to speak.
"I'm worried out them Kakashi. Both their apartments are in this direction, I would have seen them walk past. They should have walked past. Do you really think Kurenai was going to hurt him?" She looked up at his face.
Only with Rin could Kakashi be himself. And only with Rin could he allow himself to remove his mask. He looed down at her and sighed, turning his attention back at the rain.
"I don't know. This is probably hurting him than it is her, her being back that is." He closed his eyes as if ni deep thought.
"Why?"
"Well, when we recived the news of her death, he wouldn't accept it, to say the least. He was so in love with her, he didn't want to believe she was gone. It wasn't that long ago that he finally decided she wasn't coming back. He was ready to move on, but.."
"She came back."Rin looked at him sadly, trying to imagine the pain Asuma was going through. She couldn't picture herself without Kakashi. Kakashi was having the same problem.
The couple walked to their bedroom and laid in their bed. Once under the covers, in the safety of each others arms, Kakashi kissed the top of Rin's head.
I love you Rin. I just hope Asuma realizes he still loves her before shes gone again.
The silver haired ninja drifted off to sleep, unaware of hooded figure standing outside his window, watching as he and his lover slept.
"Soon, you will all know the pain I have gone through to finish this."
