Stuff: Ok, welcome back to another installment of Fox's Sister....maybe. Um, I don't own Naruto, really want to though.
Question: If one doctor doctors another doctor does the doctor who doctors the doctor doctor the doctor the way the doctor he is doctoring doctors? Or does the doctor doctor the way the doctor who doctors doctors?
I couldn't stand being in the hospital for so long, so after my many futile escapes from it, Lady Tsunade discharged me from the hospital and allowed me to go back to Kakashi's after a quick check up from her.
"You've recovered well, Maye." Lady Tsunade remarked. "Although you will always have a very faint scar outline of your Rasengan wound, nothing appears to be wrong with you or unhealable."
I smiled at her and asked to go, happy that I didn't have to wear the burden of the Akatsuki on my shoulders anymore. "If you need me, I'll be at Kakashi's all night." Lady Tsunade nodded and gestured for me to leave whilst she cleaned up my bandages.
As I walked out, I bumped into a familiar masked ANBU guard with flowing red hair. It was Haley. "Hello Haley."
The ANBU guard bowed to me and stood up straight. "Good morning Maye-san." She lifted up her mask, revealing her kind brown eyes. "Why are you here?"
"Oh, I was just leaving actually. I was hurt."
Haley nodded and remembered why she was in the hospital. "I have to go now. I need to hand in something to Lady Tsunade. It was nice seeing you again." With that, Haley lowered her mask and walked quickly down the corridor.
"How are you and Shino going?" I called out to her.
Haley tripped. My question had shocked her. She stood up and replied happily, "We're fine. Shino is on a mission that I have to go to soon, so I will be away for a while."
I waved goodbye to her with a smile and poofed to Kakashi's apartment. For some reason, the scent of meatloaf wafted through his home as I entered and saw him carrying a tray of neatly carved meat on it over to a candlelit table. "Kakashi?" I asked sweetly.
He looked up and sweat dropped. Obviously I wasn't meant to see him prepare dinner. "Oh, uh, hello Maye."
I walked over to him and fingered the fraying fabric of his vest. "Whatcha doing?"
"Nothing." He was using his boring voice to disguise what he was really doing. "Actually, I was making dinner for us." In his mind he thought, I felt bad for just standing there and watching you fight Naruto when I should have intervened.
I brushed his chest lightly with my fingers as I made my way over to the kitchen and retrieved 2 decorated bottles of Sake from the cupboard. "Hey Kakashi." I waved one of the bottles towards him with a cheeky smile on my face. Kakashi shook his head. "Why not?"
"I have something more, how should I put it, romantic, than that." he replied. From out of nowhere, a bottle of very fine red wine poofed into his open hand. "This is better."
I laughed and placed the Sake back in the cupboard. I made my way over to the table and waited for Kakashi to turn off the lights. As he did, I marvelled at the deep red shadows from the candles light staining the walls. "You did this for me?"
"Yes. I've liked you a lot Maye. In fact, ever since you walked through my door on your first day here. I had to pinch myself to make sure you weren't a hallucination." I sipped from my wine glass, not averting my eyes from Kakashi's. "Ever since you left the village two years ago, I finally realised how much you meant to me, and I couldn't afford to lose you again once you came back."
I stretched my arm out and placed my hand on his. "I love you Kakashi. You and Naruto are my world. When I was gone, I couldn't stop thinking about you. And when I was hit by the Rasengan," I paused to think about the scar my brother had give me on my shoulder. "When I was hit by it, I thought back to my first day here and how fantastic it was to meet you. I couldn't accept that I was dying, so I sucked out your Chakra, knowing that I would probably die from that, but at least I'd die with you inside of me."
A tear ran down my cheek but was caught with Kakashi's thumb. He rubbed my cheek softly and stood up to come sit beside me with his chair. He placed his chair's back towards me and sat on it back-to-front. He looked at me with his dark and tortured eye and sighed. "Maye, you're the first woman in this house that had stayed as long as you have."
I turned away from him and bowed my head. His voice sounded sad. Was this good or bad news? I knew my answer when Kakashi spoke again. "Will you marry me?"
I looked at him with a shocked face. My normally tanned skin had been drained of its colour. My hands were shaking as Kakashi revealed a small box containing a diamond ring with small scripture engraved on the rings belly. I plucked it wordlessly from it box and slipped it on my left ring finger. I blurted out a happy laugh and looked back up at Kakashi. I opened my mouth and replied, "Yes."
Riiight, well, that Doctor joke actually makes sense...but it's very confusing. Anyway, have a good day!
