Kakashi sighed as Hinata put him gently on the couch. Kakashi gave the slight blushing girl a smile behind his covered face and Hinata returned the smile with her own shy smile.
"Would you like anything to drink, Kakashi-Sensei?" Hinata asked as she took the man's shoes off.
"No, thanks. But that was very nice of you, Hinata," Kakashi replied as Hinata went out to the hallway to put the shoes on the shelf. She went back into the living room, smiling down at the figure on the couch.
"Would you like something to eat then?" Hinata asked curiously.
"No, thanks. Though you can stop acting like you're my servant, cause you're not. You're a friend of mine and are only helping me out on my greatest need," Kakashi explained and shifted his place on the couch until he layed down.
"Yes, Kakashi-Sensei," Hinata said quietly and turned her gaze down to the floor.
"Oh, and Hinata?" Kakashi said while he untied his headband and threw it on the nightstand.
"Yes?" Hinata asked and locked eyes with Kakashi's mismatched eyes.
"You can call me Kakashi, if you want," Kakashi explained with a big grin on his face.
Hinata gasped, her eyes widened in shock. An embarrassed blush covered her cheeks and her heart started to beat uncontrollably.
In the Japanese ways, people are always formal, unless they are family or really close friends. Family and friends are allowed to call each other by their first names, while colleagues and subordinates are only allowed to either use the last name or a formal form of the first name, such as "Hinata-sama" since she's a heir to the Hyuga clan. Others who also are allowed to call the other by first name is lovers.
So...
When Kakashi said that Hinata was allowed to call him by his first name, he had openly declared his love interest in her. And that was what shocked her the most.
"But, Kakashi-Sensei...," Hinata protested quietly and clasped her hands together in a feminine manner.
"Please, Hinata-chan." Hinata's blush deepened by the added nickname to her. "We already are familiar with each other and since we're going to spend a lot of time together, we don't have to be so formal."
"I know, but...," Hinata hesitantly said with her hands behind her back. 'It's just that a student/teacher relationship is forbidden, specially with this large of an age difference!' Hinata thought nervously thinking of all of the forbidden possibilities of them alone.
"Is something wrong Hinata-chan?" Kakashi asked, wondering why she was so nervous with just the name.
"It's nothing! I think I'm just going to go to sleep," Hinata said and waved her hands hesitantly in front of her face to show that nothing was wrong.
"Okay, if you say so. I'll sleep on the couch since I'm already here. You can sleep in my bed," Kakashi said, already laying down and falling asleep.
"Okay, thank you Kakashi," Hinata whispered so the older man that was asleep wouldn't hear and walked to his bed, laying down. 'Wow, I've never slept in a guys bed before, except my cousins when I was really small, but that was different. Way different. It's smell like him,' Hinata thought, letting sleep take over and wondering what events will take place tomorrow.
