"Shika, didn't you say that you had to run some errands?" Neji asked as Shika peeked up over the small wall running around the roof to the building right across from Kakashi's. With a direct veiw of Kakashi's apartment.

"Yeah, yeah, errands- Later first both of you get down and watch too. I don't want to miss what might happen." Shika said absently as he reached up and grasped both Neji and Lee's shirts in his hands and pulled them down.

The two exchanged a bemused/curious look but did as Shika asked, also wanting to see what may happen between Kakashi and Naru.

(*****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************)

Naru knew Shika had done something before stepping out.

She could smell the sweat from the small piece of torn cloth. The scent of male, sweat and other things was making her nose itch like she needed to sneeze. She stood up and walked over to the table Shika had put something under and ran her finger tips along the under side of the table and felt a small piece of cloth. It was no bigger than the size of her thumb tip. Yet if she could smell it, Kashi would be able to smell it too.

And since the scent was driving her crazy- Well, she could only imagine what it would do to Kashi once he caught a whiff of it. She pulled it out and held it for a moment before using her chakra to incinerate it then after making sure that none of the ashes would catch the place on fire, she scooped them up and dropped them into one of Kashi's fake potted plants.

And walked back over to the couch and started to lay back down when the door opened and Kakashi stood there on the doorstep with a bouquet of flowers in his hands and an irritated look on his face. He started to take a step inside and then stopped, something unreadable flickering across his masked face as he tilted his head back and sniffed a few times then looked at Naru, his dark eye narrowing a little bit.

"Naru, why do I smell Shikamaru's sweat and other things in my home?"

Naru shrugged her shoulders and replied. "Probably because he was in your home. Sweating and such." Kakashi looked at her strangely for a moment then growled something and stepped through the door and slammed it closed as he set the flowers aside and walked over to her and grabbed her up off of the couch and buried his nose against her throat and sniffed a few times.

Naru squeaked and squirmed a little bit in his grasp, his breath was tickling her neck. She wiggled a little more and Kakashi let out a loud rumbling animalistic growl and pressed his face against her skin a little more firmly. Naru squeaked again as the tickling sensation faded and was replaced by something sharper and more wicked.

She shuddered and squeezed her thighs together in an effort to make it stop or stiffle it, but the strange feeling wouldn't be ignored. Trying to stiffle it did nothing but make the feeling stronger. She could sense that Kakashi was starting to catch on to her condition because of the sudden way he stiffened, his hands tightened a fraction making his grip on her almost painful.

His breathing pattern changed to this nice breathless pant that made Naru want to whimper as she lifted her hands and put them against his chest then pushed. He growled warningly, not wanting to let her go just yet. But Naru was determined and with a softly muttered oath stomped down on his foot causing him to yelp, jump and release her.

Giving Naru the chance that she needed to run out of the apartment like the hounds of hell were nipping at her heels. Her mind kept informing her, It's not time yet! It's not time yet! While she kept wondering, Time for what?

Kakashi sat on the couch absently rubbing his sore foot and trying to figure out what had just happened with Naru. He didn't normally get grabby with women, not even the ones he showed interest in. But for some reason smelling Shikamarus scent in his home, so close to Naru had triggered certain instincts best left buried deep inside of him.

He could remember grabbing Naru before his mind went blank. His only thoughts were to pinpoint the scent and destroy it. But to do that first he had wanted to chack and make sure that the scent wasn't on Naru.

It had been. But it was very faint, mixed in with the scent of ashes. Kakashi had been trying to determin if he should act against the younger male when he'd smelled something else.

Something wonderful and mouth watering. Something that had made him want to purr and rub himself all over Naru until that scent clung to his skin. God it had been good. And so distinct that the moment he'd realized what he smelled, he had been shocked to his very core.

Naru had been aroused. Very much so, though he hadn't been able to tell if her arousal was a direct result of his presence or something else. He might have tried to find out. But she hadn't let things get far. She'd escaped him for now, but left him with something more to think about. He could wait until she came back before pressing his suit.

If she reacted to him favorably then he'd have his answers and perhaps something more as well.
