I DO NOT OWN NARUTO
Kakashi entered Hinata's hospital room to the sound of laughter. Sitting beside her hospital bed was Naruto, and the both of them were laughing so hard that tears were running down their faces. Kakashi walked over and looked down at the two friends quizzically, an eyebrow arched. She tried to sober up, but as soon as she glanced over at Naruto, she was off in gales of laughter again. Her husband looked over at Hideki standing in the corner, and noticed that he too was fighting the urge to laugh.
"What's so funny?" Kakashi asked curiously. Since Naruto and Hinata could not stop laughing, the Hyuuga guard answered.
"Well, first of all, since you refused to allow Lady Hinata to attend the meeting, she asked Naruto-san to use the spying jutsu he learned from Lord Jiraya to relay the events to her. They were highly amused by the acting skills both you and Lady Tsunade displayed. That parting shot where you called him otousan was priceless, I might add… However, their current state is due to the 'creative' ways that the remaining Hyuuga have been killing Naruto-san's clones." He reported with a large smile on his face.
"M-my favorite s-o-o far is….th-he knitting ne-e-dle Baa-chan Hildeo s-sh-oved up hi-s-s as-" Hinata was laughing so hard she stuttered trying to tell Kakashi what was amusing her so much. Kakashi grinned down at her, and she began to sober up as a blush formed on her face. He was in his formal kimono which was black with an elaborate dragon embroidered on the back. His hair was in it's usual soft spiky mess, but his hitate was replaced by a simple black silk tie, his Sharigan exposed. He was a handsome man in his normal shin obi clothes; dressed in formal wear he was stunning. Her blush deepened and her eyes fell to her lap shyly.
While Hinata had been busying checking him out, he was studying her too. She was dressed in one of the nightgown and robe combos that the girls had bought for her. It was midnight blue silk edged with white lace that draped over her figure lovingly, showing just a hint of cleavage. At that moment, Kakashi was highly grateful for the many layers of his traditional kimono. He definitely didn't want to embarrass either of them by showcasing the effect she had on him.
"So you enjoyed the meeting, did you Kitten?" He asked indulgently. She gave a small start of surprise at the nickname and looked up at him, blinking rapidly. He chuckled lightly as she unknowingly demonstrated one of the traits that made him think of her a resembling a kitten. Large luminous eyes in a small face, timid, soft, and curious all at once.
"That gown really suits you, I will have to thank Ino and Sakura for it the next time I see them." He told her with a twinkle in his eye. She blushed and was about to speak when Naruto interrupted.
"Yeah Hinata! You look really pretty today!" He told her admiringly with a small blush, as he rubbed the back of his neck.
"Don't you have something else that you need to be doing besides flirting with my wife, Naruto?" Kakaski growled, as he glared at the young man.
"Not real-oh. Yeah, yeah, I told Sakura that I would meet her at the ramen shop for supper. Bye!" He said awkwardly as he rushed out of the room with a quick wave. Hideki gave a small snort of laughter, that was cut off abruptly when Kakashi turned the glare onto him.
"Now, what were we talking about? Oh yes, how beautiful you look today." Kakashi told her as he sat down and picked up her hand, placing a small kiss on it.
"I think that you look very handsome too Kakashi." Hinata told him softly as her face flushed a deep red. She quickly looked away from him, but he grabbed her chin in a soft grip as he turned it back towards him. She realized how close their faces were, and as he leaned in for a kiss, her heart rate monitor beat out a rapid tempo. Sighing in resignation, he kissed her cheek briefly, and sat back down. Hinata let out a small huff of annoyance.
"Stupid heart monitor.." She mumbled angrily under her breath.
