A/N: So…be happy I'm posting this chapter! Only reason is because I got reviews on my other 2 stories but still not this one, so I am in a good mood. Also, it seems that out of my 2 continuous stories, this is the one that is the most popular. Saber 'Arthuria' Pendragon PMed me and told me that Kakashi in this story is a bit out of character, so I will try to change that. I wrote and completed this story over five years ago, so the complete story is written out in a notebook (:
Hope you guys like this chapter enough to review! 3

Chapter 8 (Saiya POV)

When I woke up the next morning, I was hoping to see Kakashi with an apron on with breakfast ready on the table, but I was alone in my apartment. I looked back on my actions and realized that I had acted immaturely; so I decided to apologize to Kakashi. I baked him a cake and wrote "I'm sorry" on the cake. I showered, dressed and teleported to his house.

At least…I think this was his house.

I rang the doorbell and waited. Kakashi opened the door. He was still in his mask, but his clothes were missing. All he was wearing was his boxers and a wife-beater. I couldn't help but notice his very well-toned arms and legs and abs and chest. I could feel my face turning red, so I put my head down and stuck out the cake I had made.

"What's this for?" he asked me surprised.

I looked up when I knew I wasn't blushing anymore and I replied, "I'm sorry for last night. I was just…really emotional and Itachi—"

I immediately stopped talking. Kakashi's one eye grew wide, moved aside and let me in.

"Have a seat," Kakashi said quietly and motioned to the couch.

I placed the cake on the coffee table and Kakashi sat down across from me.

It took every ounce of self-control I had to not take my eyes off of his.

"Can you continue your story?" he asked politely.

I crossed my arms, "Before you arrived, Itachi sent a clone and threatened me. He reminded me of our little ordeal."

Kakashi sat in silence and I watching him.

I broke his concentration and said quietly, "Do you forgive me?"

"Yup," he said absentmindedly.

"Liar," I held back a smile.

"Look, I'm worried about you. Itachi Uchiha is a dangerous guy," Kakashi said.

"I know…I worked with him," I said quietly.

"You really need to tell Lord Hokage about this," Kakashi said after a few minutes.

'Great, back to Lord Hokage's Office,' I thought irritably.

"Well if you plan on going with me, you better put some clothes on," I said pointedly, and blushed again.

"Or maybe I won't put any clothes on; it seems like you like my pajamas very much," Kakashi smirked.

"Those…those are you pajamas?" I managed to get out.

"Yes," he said like it was the most obvious things in the world.

He disappeared into his room to change. In the meantime, I looked around the place. It felt a little weird; Kakashi was always at my house, but this was the first time I had ever been to his place.

A picture on the wall caught my eye; it was of him, Sasuke, Sakura and Naruto. And I could tell Kakashi was smiling under his mask. The picture next to that was of the Yondaime, him, Obito and Rin.

"Enjoying yourself?" Kakashi's voice caught me off guard.

I quickly turned around and found Kakashi standing behind me, a lot closer that he usually was.

He leaned over my shoulder, "Hmm, those pictures are a little old aren't they?"

I tensed up and blushed at the intimacy. I could feel his warmth and I felt my heart skip a beat and my stomach flopped.

Why was I feeling this now?!

"Are you ready to go?" Kakashi's voice broke through my thoughts. He was still standing close to me, and his voice was quiet; it made my heart skip a couple more beats.

"Yeah," I replied, then put my head down to hide my blush.

Kakashi used 2 fingers and lifted my face up to his.

"You look cute when you blush," he said in a flirty voice.

This made my face redder and I couldn't help but feel an attraction toward him.

"Let's go," he stepped back. "Lord Hokage needs to know about this as soon as possible."

I nodded in agreement. That's all I could do. I was too shocked to speak at the moment. I was beginning to question myself now. Had I always had feelings for Kakashi?

At Hokage's office, things were not going well.

"WHAT?!" Hokage yelled. "Why did you not tell met his last night?!"

"It was late sir and—" but he cut me off.

"I don't care how late it was! You still should have told me!" he yelled, his face turning a beet red.

"I'm sorry," I said in a small voice and looked down.

Lord Hokage is an old man, usually nice and kind, but when he gets mad, you wanna stay away.

"You are forgiven; Kakashi, your team has a D-Ranked mission today, but I want you to keep your eyes open," Hokage instructed.

"But the Chuunin exams—" he got cut off too.

"This one I promise," Hokage said firmly.

"Alright," Kakashi sighed.

So we left the office and split. I had to help prepare for the Chuunin exams and Kakashi had a mission.

"Don't worry." Kakashi said, pulling me into a hug. "Everything will turn out fine."

In that moment, everything was right. I knew that there was something between Kakashi and I. All I wanted at that moment was to stay in his arms and never let go. In his arms, nothing could hurt me.

Before I knew it, he was gone, off to find the team he had been assigned.

"Be safe Kakashi," I whispered to myself. Even though it was a D-Ranked mission, but I missed him already.
