A.N. The song I used for this one doesn't really have a deep and emotional meaning unlike the first two. Basically, the song is just upbeat, fun and sexy just like this one-shot. Haha… The lyrics I used was the one written and sung by Nylon Pink, the one in English. The original song is in Korean, sung by Hyuna of 4minute. Slightly rated for implicit stuff… but no lemon haha
Track 3: Ice Cream- Hyuna
Ice cream Ice cream
I'll melt you down like Ice cream
Ice cream Ice cream
I'll melt you down like Ice cream
Kakashi let out an exhausted sigh as he dropped a pile of important papers on the desk. He rolled his sleeves up and breathed heavily as he looked at the papers he needed to go through. He couldn't help but feel a little dizzy just by staring at all the papers in front of him, not to mention that the scorching heat of summer made it more difficult for him to concentrate. He mentally scolded himself for wearing his usual shinobi uniform. He regretted his choice of clothing and noted that he'd wear something more comfortable on such a hot climate.
"Found anything?"
Kakashi's attention soon shifted from the papers to his female colleague. He paused for a moment to admire her features. Her long, black, wavy hair flowed freely down her bare shoulders as she was wearing a red sleeveless top underneath her jonin vest. Her long, flawless legs were exposed as well since she wore shorts. She decided to wear something that covered her less since it was so hot that day.
"I'm still going through them..." Kakashi replied, clearing his throat. He couldn't help but get a bit distracted by her presence. It has been a while since he last saw her. She had been on pregnancy leave for a few months and now she's back. It took a while for that thought that she has finally come back to sink in to his mind. Also, he couldn't help but notice how gorgeous she looked despite going through pregnancy. There has been a common thought that when a woman goes through pregnancy she loses her figure and glow or whatsoever. But Kurenai seemed to prove this wrong since she looked even more beautiful in his eyes. Her smile was even brighter than before despite the sadness that she went through when Asuma died. It was a heart-breaking moment for her at that time. She had just found out that she and Asuma were to have a child and all of a sudden he gets killed in a battle, leaving her a single mother. But it seems to have been going well for her. The child must've brought her such joy. After all, every child is blessing also, she had to be strong for the two of them.
"Neh Kakashi, do you think I can still fight in the field? I mean, it has been a while since I've done missions and I might be losing my touch already, but I can train for a while and still go back, right?" She asked all of a sudden, as she looked through some files with him, breaking the silence between them.
"Why would you want to go work on the field when you could just work here at the headquarters?" Kakashi asked out of curiosity and out of worry as well. "I mean, it's so dangerous out there. Wouldn't you want to focus on taking care of your kid? She needs you, now that... You know..."
He didn't finish his sentence, knowing that the topic he was about to discuss with her was quite sensitive and affected her so much. Kurenai couldn't help but give him a sad smile, appreciating his concern for her and her child.
"I guess you're right..." She sighed as she sat on a chair and continued going through some files. "But still, the pay is still higher when shinobis are sent out on the field, especially when it's an S-rank mission. I figured; since I'm a single mom, I should work harder and make more money in order to provide for our needs. Also, I need to secure Asuka's future and securing your own child's future requires a big amount of Ryo. You get what I'm saying?"
"Yeah... I get your point..." He replied as he took another set of files to look at. "I just, don't want her to go through what I've been through. You know how my dad's a single father and a great shinobi, often sent to S-rank missions, right? I was only a kid then and I watched him agonizingly as he walked out the door everytime. The worry in my heart whenever I waited for him was indescribable, you know. Everytime he'd leave, I'd think that he'd never comeback. He was all I had and well..."
Kurenai watched as the copy-ninja looked away to focus on the files. She couldn't help but feel her heart flutter as she was seeing a different side of him. They had always been so formal with each other. He had always been so secretive about his life and rarely talked about his past. She figured it was nice to get to talk to him, sharing experiences, sharing the pain of losing people they loved.
"What I'm trying to say is, you're all she has..." He continued as he gazed at her, looking into her crimson eyes.
"You're doing quite well in convincing me to stay out of the field, Kakashi. But I can't help but feel a bit butt-hurt, since you're underestimating my abilities quite a bit..." She said jokingly as she pouted childishly. Kakashi couldn't help but become distracted once more as his gaze travelled to her red lips. Sweat trickled from his forehead, soaking his hitaiate as a lot of thoughts went through his mind, which he shook away, thinking that he needs to maintain a professional relationship with his colleague.
"It's not that I'm insulting you or doubting your abilities. You're a great kunoichi. Your skills in genjutsu are exquisite. It's just that… It has been dangerous out there, Kurenai and right now, Asuka needs a mother…" Kakashi explained further as he went to put some of the irrelevant files back to their respective shelves.
Kurenai smiled, understanding her colleague's intentions. It made her happy that he had been looking out for her and Asuka. She was grateful for Kakashi's concern, but she had a habit of being stubborn at times.
"But you're still implying that I won't last that long in the field?" Kurenai provoked as she raised an eyebrow, eyeing at Kakashi in an intimidating manner, making him quite nervous as he turned to the papers and tried to avoid her question. Upon noticing this, the female jonin continued, "I can't believe you, Hatake Kakashi! You're a sexist!"
Kakashi immediately jolted from his position. His eyes widened at her comment.
"W-what? Kurenai I-" He stuttered as he gazed at her who stared accusingly at him.
"Tell you what, how about I challenge you for a match, Hmm? Are you up for it?" Kurenai asked with a smirk on her face. Kakashi scratched his non-itchy head and laughed sheepishly.
"Kurenai, stop all this childish nonsense, okay? Goodness, have you been spending a lot of time with Gai, now?" He chuckled as he sorted out the files.
"I'm serious okay?" Kurenai replied as she helped him place the irrelevant files back on the shelves.
Kakashi smiled under the mask as he continued fixing the files with his colleague. He couldn't help but feel slightly giddy about having a talk with Kurenai. It has been a while since they had those moments. He stopped his actions and felt his face heat up as soon as Kurenai's hand landed on his right hand that was about to move one folder among the shelves. Time seemed to stop as he met her gaze. He noticed how her cheeks went pink as she blushed faintly upon the sudden skinship.
"Uhh.. Sorry…" They both said together as they pulled their hands away from each other. Both blushed a deeper shade of red after realizing that they spoke at the same time. Kakashi felt thankful that he had the mask on. He definitely didn't want her to see her blushing. He let out another sigh as her felt that it had started to get hotter and that he was having a hard time breathing. He could have taken the mask off, but he didn't like being seen without it.
"So, you and me… We'll have a match later after this, okay?" Kurenai asked, breaking the silence between them. Kakashi flinched at his spot and snapped out of his thoughts to look at her, bringing himself back to earth in order to pay attention.
"Match? You serious?" He asked for the nth time of the day.
"Yep. I'm serious. So, if you're not a coward you'll accept." Kurenai teased, smirking.
"You're really stubborn. Alright, fine then.-Match, later after this." Kakashi replied meekly, sighing in defeat as the heat of summer drained his energy to even argue with her. Kurenai on the other hand, smiled triumphantly as she eagerly fixed the files Tsunade needed, so that they'll be able to finish early and have the match soon.
As soon as their work in the headquarters was finished, the two jonins went to the training field to have their match. Among the two, Kurenai was the excited one. Kakashi, on the other hand, just wasn't feeling it at all. The weather has drained all the energy in him and made him extremely lazy for a sparring match.
I'm sweet like ice cream, come on and lick my cone
two scoops of ice cream, cream cream cream cream
chocolate ice cream, i'll make you hit the floor
sprinkle my ice cream, cream cream cream cream
"Can we just do this some other day, please?" Kakashi whined lazily as Kurenai practically dragged by the wrist to the training field.
"Ugh. You sound like Shikamaru. Come on, Kakashi! It's been a while since I've trained I need some exercise. The weather's so perfect for this. Come on, whatever happened to your 'Flames of youth' as Gai would've said..." Kurenai said as she let go of his wrist to take off her jonin vest, revealing her red tank top that hugged her figure perfectly. After doing so, she took a senbon from the pocket of her shorts that she used to tie her hair in a messy bun, leaving him in awe as he absent-mindedly stared at her nape.
"What are you doing?" He asked, thinking out loud. Kakashi immediately blushed at the sudden slip of the tongue.
"What does it look like I'm doing? It's so hot, don't you think?"Kurenai replied unknowingly as certain thoughts ran through Kakashi's mind.
"Yeah… It's pretty hot out here…" Kakashi said, referring to something, rather someone else.
"If I were you, I'd take off something. Aren't you too wrapped-up for this kind of weather, Kakashi?" Kurenai asked oblivious to what had been going through Kakashi's mind. Of course, the female jonin had no intention of making him think of different things. She was merely thinking of her colleague's comfort, but unknowingly she was making him 'frustrated' with her words and actions.
'This woman… Does she know what she's doing to me? Oh god…' Kakashi thought to himself as his breath hitched with every moment he took watching her.
"You okay, Kakashi?" She asked in a clueless manner, her big, round crimson eyes staring innocently at him.
"Yeah. I'm fine…" He replied in a tone almost inaudible for her to hear. He pulled up his hitaiate and revealed his sharingan, then got into his fighting stance. "Let's start…"
Upon hearing his signal, Kurenai got into her fighting stance as well. She got a bit intimidated upon seeing his sharingan. Kurenai let out a deep breath before she charged at him. Kakashi was astonished at the sudden attack. She aimed a punch right to his face which he dodged quickly, as expected from the tensai shinobi. He let out a sigh of relief as he didn't anticipate the sudden attack. Kurenai was really fast. He thought she was going to go easy on him since it was only an exercise. Turns out, he was absolutely wrong. Her small figure made it quick and easy for her to move. The crimson-eyed kunoichi on the other hand, noticed Kakashi's dumbfounded expression and smirked upon the sight. She aimed another fist at him, this time on his stomach, which he dodged again.
"You don't have to go easy on me, Kakashi…" She reminded as she turned to kick him which he blocked again. Kakashi gave no response as he concentrated on her moves, anticipating each and every motion she did.
'She's indeed very aggressive for a kunoichi. Things are starting to heat up… Interesting…"He thought as he blocked another attack of her.
"What's the matter, Kakashi? Why aren't you hitting me?" Kurenai asked as she had seemed to notice how Kakashi's fighting defensively. She wanted more action, more challenge.
"You're a bit of a masochist, aren't you…" Kakashi chuckled nervously as he continued dodging and blocking all of her attacks. His arms were starting to hurt because the impact from the punches and kicks that he tried to block one after the other.
"I want you to push me. Challenge me, Hatake Kakashi…" Kurenai said as she punched him hard. He was able to block the punch but the strong force made him fall on his back. Apparently, Kakashi had been too distracted for the day. The sun was indeed hot, but his sparring partner was hotter. Things are starting to heat up…
Kakashi tried to keep himself calm as he steadied his breathing. He gaze at her and she was smirking at him, ready for her next attack. Kakashi couldn't help but get mesmerized at how beautiful and sexy she looked as she smirked, but first things first. They were on a match.
"Wait! Wait! Time out!" Kakashi said as he raised his arms in surrender, making Kurenai stop on her tracks. "I need to breathe… Wait…"
but i can't help it now, you got me good like wow
dont you keep telling me, tell me what i want to hear
cuz i want your love, yes i want your love
no no no no, oh yes i want you for sure
I'll melt you down like Ice cream
I'll melt you down like Ice cream
The copy ninja stood up and took off his vest, dropping it to the floor. Kurenai watched cluelessly as he lifted his navy-blue, long-sleeved shirt up, slightly lifting his white undershirt in the process, revealing his well-toned abdomen. He hesitated at first but he took his mask and hitaiate off as well. He found it hard to breathe. He just didn't care if anyone saw his face, though he would probably regret it later, but as of the moment, he needed to be comfortable or he'll get distracted and lose. He basically just smoothly threw his stuff to the ground, leaving him in his white, sleeveless undershirt, navy blue pants and sandals.
Kurenai felt her face heat up as she was left dumbfounded at where she was standing. She couldn't help but gulp at the sight before her. She found herself unconsciously checking her colleague out. She was indeed left speechless as she observed him. He had a perfectly-shaped nose, cheeks slightly pink because of the hot weather (or so she thought), sharp jawline and lips that looked tempting enough to kiss. She couldn't help but wonder why someone like him would cover such a face. It was a shame to cover such a beautiful face. She also noticed the tattoo on his left arm, the one he got when he became part of the anbu, it was the symbol of the Land of Fire.
'I never knew that Hatake Kakashi was this HOT…' Kurnai thought to herself as her breath hitched at the sight of him.
"Kurenai? You okay? I'm ready." Kakashi asked as he grinned couldn't help but become even more mesmerized as she noticed how his adorable dimple shows whenever he smiles.
'You want me to play your game, Kurenai. Alright. I'll play your game.' Kakashi thought to himself as he observed his sparring partner, who had just snapped out of her thoughts. Of course, he wasn't oblivious to the fact that she was actually checking him out. He couldn't help but let his ego rise at the moment.
"Okay. Let's continue…" Kurenai replied, clearing her throat as she avoided his gaze and tried to hide the deep shade of red that has stained her cheeks.
The two jounins resumed their sparring match, both hitting and dodging each other's attacks. It took about hours until the two started to feel the exhaustion taking over them.
"You've got your sharingan… But I still have a few tricks off my sleeve…" Kurenai said, panting as she did some hand seals for her jutsu.
Kakashi started reading the hand seals that Kurenai had just done, deciphering the jutsu that she was about to perform, but the combination of hand seals she performed didn't seem familiar to him. It didn't take too long until Kurenai disappeared in a swirl of flower petals. Kakashi turned around to look for her and just as he did, flower petals started falling to the ground. His eyelids started to get heavy as he stared at the beautiful sight before him. It was obvious that he is in her genjutsu. It took a while for him to realize, but he did. As soon as he noticed, he released himself from the genjutsu easily, but just as he was starting to relax, Kurenai suddenly appeared behind him with a kunai in her hand, pointing at his neck. With one swift move he turned around and shrugged her arm off of him, causing the kunai to fall to the ground. Before she could even retrieve her kunai, Kakashi swiftly pinned her to the ground.
Kurenai laid down on the ground with him on top. She felt her face heat up at their position. She gazed at him, his silver hair messy, pointing in different directions, his clothes covered in dirt, his body covered in sweat. Her mind went blank as she kept her eyes on him. She couldn't understand if the heat was because of the weather or if it was because of his presence.
Kakashi, apparently had the same thoughts about her in his mind. His eyes travel from her messy hair, to the shock expression on her face which he found really adorable. He looked at the hot mess that she was at that moment, sweat trickling from her neck to her collar bone. He gulped hard as he was starting to feel hot all over. His gaze soon travelled to a dark spot right below her left collar bone, near her left shoulder. At first it looked like an irrelevant zigzag line, when he looked closer he realized it was actually a phrase, 'Just live' in a form of a heart rate monitor flat line tattooed to her skin.
"You have a tattoo…" He muttered, unconsciously voicing out his thoughts, causing Kurenai to snap out of her thoughts as she punched him on the stomach, causing him to fall on the ground as he yelped in pain. She took her chance to retrieve her kunai which lay next to her. She straddled him as she pinned him to the ground, the kunai pointing real close to his neck.
Kakashi's breath hitched as he gazed at his fiercely hot sparring partner. She smirked at him and he chuckled.
"Alright. You won." He said, clearing his throat. "And to show my acceptance of my defeat… I'll treat you with ice cream."
Upon hearing what Kakashi had just said, Kurenai kept her kunai inside her pouch that she kept strapped to her back. She stood up and dusted off the dirt off of her shorts. Kakashi stood up as well in order to go to the pile of clothes that he threw to the ground. He put on his navy blue long-sleeved shirt and jounin vest. He surprisingly decided to keep his face uncovered as he kept his hitaiate and mask in his pocket. Kurenai did the same as she put on her jounin vest as well.
After training, the two jounins went to the ice cream store near Ichiraku ramen shop to order two strawberry sundaes for takeout. As Kakashi was paying for their order, the cashier was grinning and giggling as she looked at him. Her face was flushed crimson as she took the payment from him and handed out two cups of strawberry sundae to him.
"Thank you, Sir! Come again!" The cashier said enthusiastically. Kakashi grinned sheepishly before turning to leave with Kurenai. As they were about to exit the store, they heard the cashier giggle flirtatiously as she talked with her colleague.
"He's so cute. I hope he comes here more often!" The cashier's colleague remarked. Kakashi pretended that he didn't hear a thing, but the opposite was showing as his face was flushed crimson. He didn't like getting too much attention from people.
"Here." He said as he handed the other cup of strawberry sundae to Kurenai who accepted it with a smile.
I'll melt you down like Ice cream
I'll melt you down like Ice cream
"You have some fangirls over there…" She commented, chuckling, making Kakashi feel a bit embarrassed. He just smiled in response, before he brought a spoonful of sundae in his mouth, tasting the sweet, strawberry taste in his mouth. Later on he turned his gaze to Kurenai who seemed to be enjoying her ice cream as well. He watched intensely as she brought the spoonful of ichigo sweetness to her mouth. He unconsciously bit his lips as he observed how her red lips made contact with the sweet, fruity, dessert in the most alluring way.
"Mmmm…." She moaned in delight as soon as she tasted the sweet dessert in her mouth. Kakashi felt like he was losing himself. He thought that the getting ice cream would make him feel a little cooler, but turns out he was wrong…
'This woman… Does she even understand what the hell she's doing to me?' He thought, feeling really frustrated as of the moment. Kurenai seemed to notice Kakashi's gaze on her. So she turned her attention to him.
"What's wrong?" She asked innocently as she looked at him with her beautiful, round crimson orbs. Kakashi noticed that she still had cream on her lips and that's when he lost in. In an instant he just snapped and failed to make any second thoughts as he leaned forward to press his lips against hers in a fervent kiss. Kurenai almost dropped her cup of sundae in astonishment. She didn't know what to think as she felt him brush his lips gently against hers, licking the cream off of the corner of her lips, tasting the sweetness of the ice cream on her lips.
Kurenai didn't expect Kakashi to act that way, but she found no reason to push him away. She felt like she didn't want to. She let her emotions take over her as she closed her eyes and pulled him closer with her free hand. She figured, she needed a taste of him too as she brushed her soft lips against his still cold ones.
The two thought that somehow, the ice cream tasted sweeter on each other's lips…
The kiss ended shortly as the two pulled away from each other for air…
"Wow…" Kurenai breathed, still in a daze as she looked at his mismatched eyes. Her cheeks crimson from the heat of their kiss.
"Umm… I…" Kakashi said feeling a bit guilty. He knew that in a way, what he did was improper. Kurenai had just lost Asuma and just had Asuka. It was pretty complicated.
"It's… It's okay…" Kurenai told him as she turned away to hide her crimson cheeks. It had almost been a year since she had lost Asuma, but it seemed like it's still too soon to move on. But still, Kakashi made her feel different. It was nice to know that in a way, he was showing his interest for her and that somehow, he cared about her…
"Maybe, I should go… I have to pick up Asuka at the Yamanaka Flower shop. I left her with Ino and Sakura…" Kurenai said, preparing to leave, but Kakashi stopped her.
"Can I... walk you home?" Kakashi asked in a tone almost inaudible for her to hear. Kurenai turned around to face him again. She gave him a shy smile, before she replied, "Well, if it's fine with you. I guess it's alright…"
The two were in silence as they walked to the Yamanaka Flower Shop, where they found Ino and Sakura playing with Asuka. They had made the toddler a crown made of a variety of flowers.
"Sorry we came a little late…" Kurenai apologized as she approached the two girls. Kakashi stood by the door awkwardly as he waved at Sakura and Ino who were surprised to see him.
"Kakashi-sensei you're here!" Sakura said enthusiastically as she greeted her teacher.
"Sensei, you're a bad influence to Kurenai-sensei…" Ino remarked snickering. Kakashi laughed nervously as he scratched his non-itchy head.
Kurenai picked up her little girl in her arms. She smiled at how cute her baby is. The little girl was dressed in a cute pink summer dress that was perfect for the weather.
"Did you miss, Mommy?" Kurenai asked and the toddler giggled. Kurenai smiled, before she gave the little one a kiss on the cheek.
Kakashi observed silently as he looked at Kurenai, how eyes lit up as she held her daughter in her arms. Kakashi figured, she looked even more beautiful with that motherly aura surrounding her. He loved seeing her smile. It had been a while since she last smiled a true one.
Sakura and Ino weren't oblivious about Kakashi's feelings for Kurenai. They could simply understand by the way he gets fixated at her. They watched as he looked at her. There was no doubting that he has feelings for her. They two young kunoichis could see clearly.
"You thinking, what I'm thinking?" Sakura whispered, giggling excitedly and Ino nodded in response.
"Kakashi-sensei's single. Kurenai-sensei's a single mom. So… Why not?" Ino said as she smirked.
"Kakashi, come here. I want you to meet my daughter…" Kurenai said as she called him to come closer. Kakashi slowly took a few steps toward Kurenai and Asuka. He turned his attention to Asuka who stared at him with her curious, round crimson orbs.
"Hi…" Kakashi said as he grinned through his mask. The little girl let out an adorable giggle as she held her arms out to him, asking him to carry her. Kurenai was left dumbfounded as she wondered how comfortable her daughter seems to be with Kakashi.
"She wants you to hold her…" Kurenai pointed out as Asuka tried to reach him.
"M-me?" Kakashi asked cluelessly, feeling quite nervous since he had never held a toddler before. "I'd rather n-not…"
"Why not?!" Kurenai suddenly snapped upon Kakashi rejecting Asuka.
"It's not that I don't want to. It's just that… Well… I don't know how. If I'd drop her, you'd kill me. Ehehe…" Kakashi said awkwardly as he scratched the back of his head once more.
Sakura and Ino couldn't help but laugh. They found it hard to believe that a strong shinobi like him was actually afraid of carrying an innocent little child.
"It's easy. Here I'll teach you…" Kurenai said as she gently placed her daughter in Kakashi's arms. Kakashi held Asuka protectively since she seemed so fragile.
"H-Hi…" Kakashi said nervously as he gazed at the little girl who smiled and rested her head against his shoulder, giving him a hug.
"I'm surprised. She seems to like you so much. She cries a lot when Gai or Anko carries her." Kurenai said. "See? It's not so bad, right, Kakashi? You're actually good at this… I bet you'd make a great dad…"
"You think so?" Kakashi asked, feeling a bit hopeful.
"It's a sign!" Ino squealed and covered her mouth at the sudden slip of words.
'Err.. I mean, when you have your own family…" Kurenai added as she looked away awkwardly.
Kakashi didn't seem to listen anymore as he had his attention at the mini-version of Kurenai. He smiled as Asuka placed her small hands on his face. She giggled as she pulled the mask down, revealing Kakashi's face before her and everyone else. Kakashi had apparently, put his mask back a while ago before he and Kurenai reached the flowershop, but since Asuka took it off anyway, he realized what he did was pointless.
"Umm… Honey, don't do that…" Kurenai told Asuka who seemed to be one of the people who think that Kakashi looks better without the mask.
"No… I guess it's okay…" Kakashi said as he didn't stop Asuka from taking off his mask.
"Wow… It took us a lot of hard work to see that face and we failed… Now, a baby comes along and takes the mask off with ease…" Sakura commented in amazement.
"It's getting late. I think we should go…" Kurenai reminded as she turned to the two girls. "Ino, Sakura. Thank you so much for taking good care of her. I'm really sorry for the trouble."
"It's really nothing, Kurenai-sensei. We love having her here…"Ino assured, before bidding Kakashi and Kurenai goodbye.
Asuka fell asleep in Kakashi's arms as they were walking home. Kurenai looked at the scene before her as she walked side by side with him. She couldn't help but smile. Her heart fluttered against her chest as she thought how good Kakashi looked with Asuka in his arms. She couldn't help but feel a bit hopeful, that maybe Kakashi could be the one...
"What a lovely family…" An old woman who happened to pass by them, remarked, mistaking Kurenai and Kakashi for a couple, with Asuka as their child. Kakashi and Kurenai simply smiled at the woman then turned to each other, smiling awkwardly.
As soon as they reached Kurenai's residence, Kakashi gently placed Asuka in Kurenai's arms, afraid that the little one might wake up.
"Thank you for today, Kakashi…" Kurenai said with a smile as she held Asuka.
"Sure…" Kakashi simply replied as he kept his sweaty hands in his pockets as looked at the ground, not knowing what else to say.
"I should probably go inside. It's getting cold, Asuka might get sick…" Kurenai said, clearing her throat, breaking the silence between them as she turned to go inside her house.
"Umm… Kurenai…"Kakashi called her attention, making her turn back to give him her attention.
"Would you consider?" He asked as he looked into her eyes, searching for an answer.
"Consider what?" She asked, having no idea of what he was actually talking about.
Kakashi took a deep breath before he clarified, "Would you consider finding a step father for Asuka?"
Kurenai was speechless by the sudden answer. She took time to think. Kakashi had been a good friend and he seemed to really care about her and Asuka, however, she needed time. She felt it was still too soon. She gave him an encouraging smile.
"We'll see… I mean… It depends on who's up for the slot…" Kurenai said teasingly.
"If I want to have the slot..." Kakashi began, his thoughts suddenly slipping into words.
"If you're really interested in it… Then why not?-But… You have to show me that you want it really badly…" Kurenai replied. Kakashi smiled as he nodded.
"Alright." He said sealing the deal as he smiled at her, determined to win her and Asuka's heart. "I'll see you tomorrow at work."
"Sure. Take care…" Kurenai said as she watched him leave for the night, before she went inside her house and closed the door. She leaned her back at the door and held her child close to her as she smiled giddily thinking,
'Asuka-chan… You might have a new daddy soon…'
A.N. Haha I hope you all liked this one. It's kinda fluffy in the end... Haha… I know that Kurenai's daughter is actually named Mirai, but when I found out, I had already started writing this using the name Asuka… hehe… So I decided to not change it anymore…
Anyway, I really do hope you like this sexy, fluffy one-shot I made for KakaKure… I figured, these two need a little spice in their life haha… LOL
With Love,
~Kei-chan
