Dear Diary

by Empress of Yaoi

A Challenge! Kaka/Gai. Summarywise? As both men have been writing down in their respective diaries(one more diligently than the other)they have loved someone for years. But that person would never love them back right? Right. But promises must be kept, even if you've only promised your 'Dear Diary' that you will tell that person today, no matter what. M for safety, I know myself ;)

A/N: And Gai's take on the same day again ;) Just to torture you a little. Yes, I´m looking at you, Yengirl! xD

My Beta goes by the name Marina, and she´s awesome. Trust me on this. ^.^

I do not own Naruto. I only own my own creativity (Though my mother would have you believe that is actually hers… Don't believe everything you hear, folks)

Dear Diary,

Today I have spent another youthful day of training with my gennin team. Neji landed a good punch, and I had vowed that when he did so, I would walk on my hands for three miles, with Neji sitting in the place of honor, on top of my feet. He refused. I do not fully understand why, but both he and Tenten insisted that I should be able understand why he reclined. However, Lee was more than willing to help me out by doing the squats he had ordered himself to do if he were to lose to Tenten on top of my feet. So far, a regular, youthful day.

There would be no reason to write any of this down if not for the following: Kakashi was watching us. In the crowd, he stood. Watching. For only a moment, I almost lost my balance. I almost toppled over. For only a moment, the world was beyond upside down and my body felt inside out. My heart visible for all the world to see. For Kakashi to see.

I truly am embarrassed to admit that my rival's slightly bored gaze interrupted my concentration to the point where I almost dropped Lee on the ground. I am ashamed of the thoughts I have about this man. He would not want me to think these things. I realize that Kakashi only barely tolerates me at times, that he zones out to avoid conversing with me. He would not want me to speak of my love for him. So I will not.

And now, I will go to bed. My head is clear once more, and tomorrow will bring another day filled with youthful training. And hopefully, without thoughts of Kakashi Hatake. It hurts too much.

Sincerely, Gai M.
