A/N: This is out of complete boredom I doubt it'll get any good reviews.

Hatake Kakashi's Strange Predicament

Chapter 1: The New Manager

"Boy am I late." Kakashi drawled as he held his orange book in front of his face. He was propped up against a tree, his ANBU equipment hanging loosely from his body rather than properly strapped securely to its designated positions. It had been 4 years now since the Kyuubi's attack on Konoha, and placid days such as these deserved to be appreciated to the utmost. He had just returned from an ANBU mission, his report due a couple of hours ago, however he couldn't bring himself to make the trip and instead decided to continue reading the book Asuma had gotten him for his birthday. Of course his best friend would find it funny to give him a porn novel thinking it was nothing more than an attack at his manhood; he needed porn to satisfy himself because he couldn't get a girl with that blasted mask in place. He expected to get bored of it sooner or later. After all, how could a sleazy porn novel draw someone of his standards and discipline in?

Kakashi looked to the sky and realized he had put off his report long enough. With a snap, the Copy Ninja closed his book and stood up to leave, brushing the stray leaves and blades of grass from his pants, and made his way to the gates of Konoha. The mission was a piece of cake for an ANBU assignment; track down the missing nin, capture on contact, terminate if necessary. Obviously since he was alone, the rogue nin thought it best to be uncooperative with the sharingan user. Ever since his master died, Kakashi made it a point to never take unnecessary risks and always triple check before ever taking a single step. To the untrained eye he was lazy, indifferent, and unfazed most of the time, but to those who knew him his lone eye and mind were constantly calculating everything around him. So it was no surprise that the rogue nin thought he could take out the ANBU captain when he stopped to take a long yawn, and found a fist of electricity protruding from his abdomen.

Said Captain saluted the two guards lazily, dragging his feet along as he made his way to Hokage tower. His gaze often found it's way to the mountainside where his old master constantly looked watched over him, and admiring his progress. Slowly, Kakashi made his way up the steps and to the large double red doors of the Third Hokage's office. He knocked twice, body still in a slouching position.

"Enter," a gruff voice of an old man growled. Kakashi opened one of the doors and moved his way to the center of the floor, ANBU mask now in place, and equipment strapped on properly. He stood at attention in the middle of the floor, his hollow eyed wolf mask showing no emotion, "you're late as usual, Kakashi," Hiruzen drawled, "I presume you found the rogue nin?"

"Hai."

"And judging by the lack of said nin, you killed him?"

"Hai."

"And knowing your discipline and sense of duty, this was the best option in light of the situation?"

"Hai." Sarutobi sighed.

"I see. It seems to me that a shinobi of your caliber will always do what is necessary in any situation. However, even though you wear that mask and cover your left eye, I can see the fatigue within you," Kakashi didn't move a muscle nor show any emotion to the Third's comment, "you're tired Kakashi. It's been four years since Minato died, and you still hold his death and that of your teammates as your own burden. Since Obito's death you haven't taken a single vacation," he didn't even move to the mentioning of his closest and dearest friend's death, "and I am also aware that forcing you to take a vacation is out of the question. Therefore," he folded his hands in front of his face, "I have an assignment for you that is both low key and will guarantee that you get some relaxation." Kakashi raised an eyebrow behind his ANBU mask.

"What are the details, Hokage-sama?" a smirk adorned the old man's face.

"You are to travel to mainland Japan, locate the Hinata hot springs, and act as manager for an undetermined amount of time." Kakashi's eyebrow rose higher.

"I don't understand sir," he inquired, "this mission requires none of my training. It seems like the job of a civilian."

"That's where you are wrong, Kakashi. The hotspring is owned by my sister and is co-run by her daughter, my niece. My sister, Hinata, has been stationed there for some time to keep watch over any activity in the area. If a time came when her skills were to be called upon, or those of her daughter, they would gladly accept and defend the customer. However, my sister is older than I, and she cannot fight as she once did. Until we can find a permanent undercover shinobi replacement, I'm afraid I will have to send you there in their stead. My niece, Haruka, will accommodate you and you will both run the dormitories and keep watch of any suspicious activity in the area. If you come across rogue nin, you are to capture and notify Konoha. As always if it comes down to it, you have the permission to kill on contact. You will report to me via telegraph every Saturday. If you need to contact me, use your summons or one of my monkey summons," Hiruzen took out a scroll and tossed it to Kakashi, "inside is everything you need to know about this mission and the seals for my summons in case of an emergency. Any questions?"

To say that Kakashi was overwhelmed was a complete understatement. Sister? Niece? Hot Springs? Dormitory manager? This had civilian job written all over it, so why the hell would the Third be sending one of his best ANBU captains out to perform a task on par with a D rank mission? However, if it's one thing Kakashi never did, it was question the will and authority of the Hokage. His immense loyalty to the village prevented him to do so. Maybe a vacation from shinobi work wasn't such a bad idea; he was pretty well off financially due to his immense amount of mission work and the inheritance from his father. Plus some time off from seeing bloodshed and constant death would be a wonderful break.

With an inward sigh, Kakashi sharply nodded his head, "Understood Hokage-sama," he replied, "when do I leave?"

"Pack your belongings and head to the port by nightfall. Based on my sister's impatience, I'm sure she has already left the dormitory by now. You are dismissed."

"Hai." In a cloud of smoke, Kakashi was gone.

~*~

10 hours later the ANBU captain stepped off the boat in Kanagawa, his pack slung over his shoulder and a map in his left hand. He was dressed in civilian clothes; a pair of dark blue jeans, black sneakers, white undershirt and an open black collar shirt with the sleeves rolled up halfway. Instead of his normal Konaha headband, Kakashi wore a simple black eyepatch and let his hair hang loosely over his left eye. The only customary item he wore was his trademark mask. Even though he was supposed to be impersonating a civilian, he felt too attached to his mask. Surprisingly, it fit his new image quite well.

"Hinata Inn…" he read on the small map provided for him. Kakashi's been on countless missions where hot springs were a common stop on the way, and if it were anything like the Konoha hot springs, it shouldn't be too out of the ordinary or too tough to manage at all. The Third had mentioned that it was a dormitory, so he wondered what the tenants must be like.

Calculating his route, Kakashi made his way to a set of large steps that led up to a large old style inn. That must be it he thought to himself. It didn't look so bad from the outside; a bit worn down from all the years of service, but that added to it's charm and beauty.

Reaching the top, Kakashi noticed three old men wearing identical robes out of the corner of his eye. A fog formed that was from his waist down. He felt a strange chakra within the fog, and of the three old men.

"Beware of your origins." the tallest one muttered,

"Let not your past mistakes interfere with the now." The middle height man added,

"Make yourself known when the lioness enters." The shortest man finished off. The fog got thicker and the three old men disappeared from sight. When the mist cleared, Kakashi was standing in attack mode, kunai in his left hand, and sharingan ablaze. No matter where he was, the ANBU captain would never be caught dead without his trusty ninja equipment. After assuring himself that the area was clear, Kakashi replaced his weapon in it's hidden location, straightened out his shirt and continued forward to the large inn.

"Hmm." Kakashi hummed as he approached the door. The building itself was huge, implying that a lot of people lived there, however he couldn't be sure with the lack of commotion and chakra signatures. His eyes narrowed slightly at the subtle reminder. Revealing my true identity can prove make this mission difficult. I should make a back story in case they ask. First off, he knocked on the door loudly, let's meet up with Haruka-san.

When no reply came, Kakashi let himself in, immediately taking in his surroundings. The main area was quite large and had 4 different pathways; one to a kitchen, one to a den, and two to corridors. There was a flight of steps that continue on a balcony that led to a second floor, however judging by the size of the building, there was most likely another floor.

"Hello?" Kakashi called out, his voice slightly reverberating off the walls. When he heard no reply, he began to do some personal exploring around the building. The hallways were pretty much the same on each floor, each room was approximately the same size, and everything was seemingly equidistant to the main facilities of the inn. The only difference Kakashi took notice of was the name plaques on each of the different rooms. All seemed to be female which rose a bit of suspicion. If this is an inn why are there only female tenants? A shiver went down his spine.

Not an inn…

..

..

Dormitory… As in women's dormitory. Kakashi pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed.

"This is going to be a difficult vacation indeed." He sighed. Out of the corner of his eye, the Copy Ninja noticed a room with a plaque that read "Manager" over the paper door. "This must be my place," he deducted, opening the door.

It was a modest room, no bigger than any other room in the dorm. There was a desk, a futon and a television in different areas of the room. Kakashi set down his bag and walked across the room to open the windows. The sun poured in and the amazing view sent a wave of relaxation down the new manager's body. This sort of environment was really what he needed; peaceful, placid, and blissful nature. With this new position he could unwind and reboot from his consistent shinobi duties.

His lone eye caught sight of the steaming hot spring, and his shoulders physically loosened at the thought of immersing himself in the hot, soothing spring water. He grabbed a towel and made his way to the baths, quickly changed, and walked into the steaming spring, a short waist towel and mask the only thing clothing him.

His moment of relaxation was short the instant he felt another presence enter the vicinity. His shinobi skills kicked in as he produced a kunai he left on the side of the springs behind his head. What he discovered almost made him drop the kunai.

Standing before him in nothing but a pink body towel was a girl that couldn't be more than 18. She had long caramel colored hair, porcelain skin, and chocolate brown eyes. A pink hue tinged the ANBU captain's face as the girl walked deeper into the spring. She Rested her back against the stones, closed her eyes and sighed in relaxation. When she opened them, they landed on the only other occupant in the bath.

"Hi!" she greeted, while winking. Kakashi blushed more at the overly friendly greeting of the girl. She slowly made her way closer to him, her towel threatening to open up and reveal her chest to him. "Hey Kitsune," she began in a sweet tone, "I think my breasts have gotten bigger. What do you—" Her voice halted when she placed her hand on her "friend's" leg. There was something there that shouldn't be there on Kitsune, or any girl for that matter. Realizing what she was holding, the girl let out an ear piercing scream and began to run away from the spring, Kakashi in tow involuntarily.

"Ma'am! Please! Let go!" he yelled in between winces of pain.

"Stop following me!" Not wanting to deal with it anymore, Kakashi grabbed her wrist and wrenched her hand off of his poor manhood. The girl turned around and swung a hard right towards his face. Kakashi's ninja skills kicked in a tad too late as he only had time to raise his hand to defend. Not expecting such strength, the momentum from her punch sent him through the changing room doors, knocking over a basket of clothes as he went along. In that room was yet another girl with short blonde hair, her face resembling a fox's.

"Huh? Who are you?" she inquired. Regaining his composure, Kakashi coughed into his hand and gave a short bow.

"Excuse me for my intrusion, but I am—"

"YOU PERVERT!" the caramel haired girl yelled, swinging another punch. Kakashi was ready for this one and instinctively dodged the punch, only to find another one coming from her left side. He continued to dodge her attacks in a fluid motion, predicting her movements easily. The girl more and more irritated each time she missed.

"Ex—cuse—me—ma—'am—but—there—seems—to—be—a—mis—un—der—stan—ding—" Kakashi's broken explanation came out after every swing and miss of the violent girl.

"Oi Naru," the blonde haired girl objected, "stop trying to hit him and let him speak!"

"This guy was peeping on me Kitsune," Naru retorted seethingly, "and look! He's stealing your underwear!" Kakashi was confused as he looked down and noticed a pair of black lace panties were hanging from the end of his waist towel.

"Hey! You panty thief," Kitsune yelled, "you'll have to pay for those!" Kakashi quickly tore the panties from his towel and held his hands up in defense.

"Look ladies, I think there's been some—" CRACK! Kakashi felt his cheekbone crack slightly as Naru's right hand connected while he was distracted. He flew back through one of the shouji doors, landing unceremoniously on his back in the main room at the foot of the stairs. He winced as he stood up carefully, nursing his broken cheekbone. "What a violent girl," Kakashi muttered. He looked around and noticed a line of small tanks all pointing their guns at him. Behind them was a girl of what appeared to be South Asian descent, "well hello." Kakashi greeted. The girl gave him a big goofy smile while holding what appeared to be a remote control.

"Burglar alert!" She cheered happily. Kakashi was confused.

"Burglar?" he inquired. Realization hit after the girl fired the first tank at him. My mask and eye patch are still on… Kakashi avoided the next wave of blasts from the tanks, rolling out of the way of the girl and out the front door. From the right side came a now dressed Naru and Kitsune, the latter holding a broom. Both attempted to beat the ANBU captain who dodged each attack as if it were nothing. "Please," he tried to plead, "can't we all just stop and discuss this for a moment?" His words fell on deaf ears and his cheek was throbbing. His patience had worn thin and a vein popped in his forehead, "Look," he began through gritted teeth. He caught Naru's hand and sliced his hand in a horizontal motion, causing the broom to break in 5 places. Both girls froze in terror and were on the bring of panicking, "if you two would calm down and listen to what I have to say, this can all be smoothed over nicely." Naru's eyes widened and she began to fight his grip.

"LET GO OF ME YOU PERVERT! LET GO!! HELP ME PLEASE, HARUKA-SAN!" Kakashi's ears perked.

"Haruka-san?" He released Naru's hand and looked behind him to see a woman in her 30's with short brunette hair standing at the top of the stairs with a cigarette hanging between her lips. Kakashi inwardly sighed that he finally found his contact, "thank Kami you've arrived." He greeted. Naru quickly pulled back her fist and sent it forward only to catch air. She looked to see the ANBU captain shaking hands with Haruka about 20 feet ahead of her. She was dumbfounded. How could he have covered that distance in a split second??

"It's good to finally meet you." Kakashi greeted with a bow. Haruka gave him a smile.

"Likewise," she said in her lazy tone, "Saru-oji notified me that you were coming. I see you've met Naru and Kitsune already."

"Ah yes, and there was one more inside."

"Ah, Su-chan. Looks like you've met most of the tenants then."

"Most of them?" Kakashi inquired, "this inn is huge, you could easily house another 10 more people comfortably."

"That's true," the tea shop owner began, "however these days the Hinata Hot Springs hasn't seen much business after Kaa-san turned the estate from an inn to a girl's hostel. There's one other tenant, and she's away for the next few days. I'm sure you'll like her too." Kakashi inwardly frowned.

If she's anything like these three, then I'm not sure I will. Sarutobi-sama calls this mission relaxing?

"Haruka-san!" Naru yelled from behind the ANBU captain causing him to turn his head, "who is this guy? He's already peeped on me and tried to steal Kitsune's underwear." Kakashi sighed and hung his head. Haruka only chuckled.

"I think we should go inside and explain the situation to the three who are here."

~*~

"EH??? MANAGER?!?!?!" Kitsune and Naru yelled together. Kakashi sat in the same clothes he wore earlier in front of three of his tenants.

"That's right. Kaa-san's younger is brother is a very powerful politician and is very close with Kakashi. He recommended that he manage the hostel in her stead. Kakashi of course accepted the offering of his friend and mentor." The two elder tenants were still pretty suspicious of the masked man before them, "Also," Haruka added, "he goes to Tokyo U and studies pre-law." This caught the Copy Ninja by surprise. Tokyo U? Law? That's my cover? That's so insecure and has a million holes in the cover that could be discovered. Immediately, Naru and Kitsune's faces went to ones of general surprise.

"Tokyo U? Pre-law? Wow! You must be a very smart guy!" Kitsune began, her image of Kakashi taking a 180, "with a degree in law, you can become a politician, a bureaucrat or even a lawyer! You're going to be rolling in the dough!" Kakashi's eyes drooped. Found the gold digger, "Oh, Naru's trying to get into Tokyo U as well," His eyes met the chocolate brown eyes of the girl his age, "maybe you could give her some tips on the entrance exam?" Naru scowled at the new manager as he kept a blank face on behind his mask.

"Sure, I don't see why not." He replied. Naru huffed and turned her head.

"I don't see why we should agree to let this pervert run our hostel."

"Look," Haruka sighed, "at the very least let him stay the night while the three of you talk it over, ok?" Naru grimaced but finally sighed.

"Fine, one night can't hurt."

"Yay! One night! One night! One night!" Su sang.

~*~

"Looks like my first impression wasn't that great on the ladies," Kakashi mumbled rhetorically. He flinched from the pain on his cheekbone, which reminded him of the embarrassing moment of dropping his guard against a high school girl, "I hope I know enough medical ninjutsu to heal this." He muttered. He performed a few hand seals and brought a glowing green hand to his cheek and slowly began to heal the fractured bone and sagging cheek fat deposits. He was just about finished when the shouji doors to his room slid open. He quickly drew his hand down to his lap and put on a lazy, droopy-eyed face at his self-inviting visitor.

"Hey! How're you doing Mr. Tokyo U student Kakashi?" said student gave the fox girl a droopy eyed stare and sighed.

"Is there something I can help you with, Kitsune-san?" he asked lazily.

"Oh? So you know my name?" she began, "that's actually just my nickname. My real name is Mitsune Konno." Said fox girl gave a saucy grin to the new manager. Said manager caught on pretty quickly to the vixen's plot. She was attempting to seduce him into some form of agreement that benefits her more than it would him. "You know," she began, a deep blush tinging her cheeks, her hand slowly encompassing his own, "I just can't hold it in any longer, manager-san," she raised his hand and brought it close to her large, matured breast. Kakashi's eye narrowed and he firmly pulled his hand from her grasp.

"So that was your intention," he began. Kakashi took a deep breath and slowly let it out, "soften me up with sultry words, place my hand on you breast, then do either one of two things: 1) Scream and accuse me of violating you or 2) throw in an non-discussed agreement such as free rent for a month. However, judging by your natural demeanor and personality, I'd say it was going to be a combination of the two starting with the second option. Naru would then come barging through the door, which she is conveniently stomping up to as we speak and would catch me here with you. You would cry, pretend I had violated you, and I would look like a sleaze in the end. Am I correct?" Kakashi asked, locking his steel onyx gaze with her fox like eyes.

To say Kitsune was caught by surprise was a complete understatement. He had predicted her scheme to the "t". How did he see through her so easily? Was it really that obvious? Her fox like eyes creased in a clever grin.

"It's not entirely over yet." She turned to the door hearing footsteps just outside them. The shouji doors slid open to Naru and Su. Kitsune began to cry uncontrollably and hold herself.

"N-Naru! He started grabbing my chest and saying things like 'Does it feel good here? How about here?'" She cracked an eye open and looked up to be face to face with a confused Naru. Now she was confused too.

"Who did Kitsune?" Naru inquired, "there's nobody here." Said fox girl whipped her head around to be the sight on an empty spot next to her. How could this be? She was in the way of every possible exit; namely the doors and the windows. Had he slipped by her and she hadn't even noticed? She quickly conjured up a story and turned around laughing.

"Ahaha nothing nothing Naru," Konno stumbled, "I was just rehearsing for a possible play audition! Ahahahah!" With that the fox woman scrambled up and quickly walked past the baffled teen. Naru gave her a suspicious look, took a quick once over around the room then closed it.

~*~

"Well this is gonna prove to be a problem," Kakashi mused to himself on the steps of the hostel. He pulled out a box of cigarettes from his inside pocket, popped one out and lit it with a small fire jutsu. The cancerous sticks may be destroying his body, but as a shinobi his life is on the life at any given moment. Oh but that's right, he's supposed to be on "vacation". With a scoff, Kakashi took another long drag, cursing Asuma's name as he remembered the friend who got him hooked in the first place.

Between each drag, the ANBU Captain contemplated his situation, which seemed to get more and more complicated as it progressed. There was no question that he was going to stay here. Even though it was supposed to be a relaxing mission, failure was not an option. He could always threaten them with his raikiri but that would both blow his cover and possibly scare them off, both scenarios resulting in a failed mission. He could always attempt to make friends with them, but all his colleagues knew him to be a the silent unsociable type, so how the hell was he going to make friends with a couple of attractive civilian girls? He took a longer drag and let it fill every cavity of his lungs before slowly letting it out. He suddenly felt a presence behind him, and immediately he fingered the kunai hidden in his sleeve. The familiar signature calmed him down though. A hand touched his shoulder, and it was holding out a pack of foreign cigarettes.

"Japan's tobacco is a bit more potent and flavorful than Konoha's." Haruka said with a smile. Kakashi flicked his butt and took the cigarette with a nod of the head. The Third's niece sat down next to him and lit her own cigarette, offering the Captain her lighter. Kakashi obliged and took a drag of his lit cigarette. It sure was more potent, but the flavor was what caught him by surprise. It wasn't as smokey as Konoha's brand, "So what's your plan on gaining their trust?"

"I was thinking maybe a good suiton jutsu would 'cool' things down," the ANBU captain muttered. Haruka chuckled and took a drag from her own cigarette.

"You know, the girls will probably warm up to you if you try to be a bit more sociable."

"That in itself seems like a challenge to me."

"How so?"

"I'm sure Sarutobi-sama has given you my credentials."

"Nope, Saruji just said you'd be great for the job."

"I'm an ANBU captain." Haruka's eyes widened,

"And you're only 18?"

"I've been captain for 3 years now."

"Wait a minute. Hatake Kakashi, now I remember where I've heard your name." said Captain sighed, here it comes, "you're Sakumo's son, the Fourth Hokage's student, one of the youngest ninjas to graduate the academy and receive the rank of jounin at age 13! I thought you were just another high class chuunin sent to oversee the inn for a while, but you! You're a legend amongst the ninja world, and in every bingo book!"

"I'm pretty sure I'm well aware of my own reputation, Haruka-san," Kakashi muttered, visibly irritated, "however this mission was assigned to me in order for me to relax and take a break from all the S-rank and unranked missions I have been accepting."

"Damn, my uncle's been pushing you hard hasn't he?"

"It wasn't him, it was me."

"Huh?"

"…Nevermind. I'll see what I can do to help the girls gain my trust—" his eye widened as he felt a faint chakra signature. Kakashi sighed and pinched his brow, "it's going to be a whole lot tougher now that the eavesdropper heard everything." Haruka perked up and turned her head to see Naru's face stern and her eyes steeled. She whisked her hair around as she turned to storm off.

"Ah, Naru-chan does have a short temper, but she'll cool off," the tea shop owner drawled, "maybe you should console her. She seems to like you." Kakashi snapped his head to lock eye with Haruka's cool gaze. This tea shop owner seemed to be more than just an undercover shinobi; what else could he expect from the niece of the Third Hokage?

He stood up and jogged over to where Naru was standing. Haruka sighed then took another drag from her cigarette. "Kid's these days…"

~*~

"That lying scum," Naru seethed as she stomped into the bath area fully clothed, "he's not a Tokyo U student at all! He's just someone Haruka-san knows of," she thought back to what she overheard, "What's a Copy Ninja? Wait a second, he's an actual ninja? Like from the shogunate? What the hell is ANBU anyway?"

"Ansatsu Senjutsu Tokushu Butai," Naru whipped her head around to see the silver haired teen leaning against the door frame, his hands deeps in his pockets, "or, Special Assasination and Tactical Squadron." The color drained from Naru's face and her knees began to shake.

"Y-y-y-you're an assassin? A ninja assassin?!" Kakashi's eye closed as he sighed. Looks like the cat's out of the bag. I have to make sure that this only stays with her, he opened his eye and locked gazes with her, however, if I can use this predicament to gain her trust, then maybe the mission wouldn't fail.

"Yes, that is the primary duty of a ninja," The caramel haired girl started to shake all over in fear, "however," Kakashi continued, noticing the visible tremors along her body, "it's not out of enjoyment. It's who I was born to be, though I do not find pleasure in killing. Hence why I am here," this confused the 18 year old girl, "I've seen things most people don't ever see in their lifetime. As a result of that, my leader has deemed it essential that I take some time to refresh and reboot so I can cope with my past's ghosts better. Running this hostel is my assignment."

"Does that mean," Naru said quietly, "that Hinata-sama's brother…is a ninja too?"

"The strongest one in my village," Kakashi continued, "but Narusegawa," said girl focused a surprised look on the shinobi's lone eye. His look had changed from a steely killer to that of a tired and old man who wished to rest, "I realize how much this inn means to you and the others. My job here is to just make sure everything goes well for you all. I also wish to just relax and get my mind off of what had haunted me in the past." Naru could see the sincerity in his eyes and the truth in his words. He was an old wolf that wished to stop hunting and lay down. She felt her heart tighten slightly at the wounded being before her.

Immediately Kakashi realized she was feeling overly sympathetic, and his indifferent cold gaze returned, "So I'd prefer if you didn't tell anyone about this." Naru flinched at the new tone and took a step backwards. She stepped on a wet stone and slipped backwards, legs in the air. With lightning fast reflexes, the ANBU captain flickered forward and caught the girl, standing in an awkward position while he supported her back with his right hand and hip with his left. Naru too blushed to find that she instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck. She took in the up close look in front of her.

Kakashi's uncovered eye may look like that of a killer but the uncovered part of his face had a sort of boyish charm to it. His silvery locks fell messily above his covered left eye, the rest of it defying gravity successfully. She gave a cute smile, dimples emerging at the corners of her mouth.

"You know," she began "from this angle you're kind of cute." Kakashi's uncovered cheek turned a tinge of pink at the comment, his eye widening.

"You too." he breathed. Time seemed to stop for that moment as the two teens stared intently into each other's eyes (well eye for Kakashi). Naru carefully brought her hand down to push the hair away from Kakashi's left eye. She narrowed her eyes a bit at the eye patch.

"How did you lose your eye?" said sharingan user was caught by surprise.

"I uh—"

"Naru! Are you he~re?" Su called out from the doors.

"What are you too doing?" Kitsune asked suspiciously. Kakashi quickly stood the girl upright and stepped a couple of feet away from her, taking up his usual unfazed pose.

"Nothing." He replied, looking off to the moon.

"I was just asking him if he could help me study for Tokyo U! When I went to thank him I slipped, and he was quick enough to catch me before I fell." Kakashi raised an eyebrow as he looked towards her. Why is she covering up for me? Said savior gave the captain a cute wink and walked to the shouji doors passing the other girls, "Come on! Let's order in tonight. Who wants teriyaki?"

"Me! Me! Me!" Su sang. Kitsune narrowed her fox eyes at Kakashi, taking in his teenage pose. She smirked and turned to the doors, putting an extra sway in her hips for him to enjoy.

"Aren't you coming, stud?" She asked in a saucy fashion. The ANBU captain sighed and dragged his feet as he went inside.

"This is going to be one long mission."

A/N: Hey guys, as I said earlier, this is out of boredom and I don't know if it will fly or not, so please leave a review of what you think. I'm going to try and fit the main plot as best I can obviously though without Kakashi going to Tokyo U but the other stories will be incorporated. The series itself focuses on the love between Keitaro and Kakashi, but I'm going to make it more of a harem at first where all of the tenants are after him at first. Let me know what you think!
