"Should we wake them up so they can go to their beds?" Sakura asked as she passed by Kakashi who buried beneath several scrolls and tucked between a sleeping Naruto and Sai.

Yamato shook his head and took another sip of his hot drink as he continued to fill out paper work. "No," he answered, "If you wake Kakashi up I doubt he'll agree to going back to sleep." Looking up to the pink-haired teen with a smirk, he remarked, "It seems he's just like every other child in that respect-he doesn't ever want to sleep."

The girl giggled. "If you think it's for the best," stretching an arm up over her head she sighed. "Well, I'm off then," she told him. "My parents are beginning to fuss about how many nights I've been spending away.."

The ninja nodded. "Before you leave, would you mind tossing a blanket over them?" He inquired as he turned back to his work.

Sakura agreed. "No problem," stepping over to the closet she knows Kakashi keeps his linens in (and isn't that strange? Knowing your teacher's home as well as your own), she opens it and takes down the cute dog-patterned blanket. Covering the boys-Kakashi in particular, she waves back. "Night," she called as she left.

With the click of the closing door, only the sound of the scratching pen let the world know that someone was still awake in that tiny home.

When Kakashi woke, he noted that he was exceedingly uncomfortable. Opening his eye, he saw Naruto was squished up against his shoulder-drooling-and Sai...how could he be comfortable contorted like that? At some point in the night, he'd lifted half his body onto Kakashi's lap and then bent his head at such an angle that it stretched back and his head hit the wall behind the couch.

None of this was nearly as odd or upsetting as the fact that he wasn't wearing any clothes. Their were scraps of what appeared to be children's clothing around him, but that made absolutely no sense and the jonin was relieved that he had a blanket covering his lower half. Deciding that he in no way wanted to wake up to his students seeing him like this, the ninja made careful work of extracting him from the boys and getting up from the couch with the blanket still around his waist.

Taking the blanket and tucking it tightly around his middle, he hardly noticed Yamato enter the room. A hand coming to his mouth as he lifted his face, he shrugged.

"Um, I can explain?"

The brunette snorted. "I think it's pretty obvious, don't you?"

Not quite certain if what the other was implying meant he was a pervert, Kakashi stiffened. "Yeah?"

"You grew up!" He explained, hands gesturing from the ground and then to the jonin's relative height.

Several puzzle pieces coming together, Kakashi's eye drifts away and he mutters, "...Obviously." Walking in the other ninja's direction, he said "Excuse me, I'd like to get some clothes."

"Of course," Yamato concurred. Half-way down the hall, the other man called down, "You know you were a really bratty kid, right?"

Opening his bedroom door, Kakashi sighed. He wasn't ever going to live this down. So, curving his eye into a smile he looked the brunette's way. "Of course I know that, I was messing with you the whole time." He fibbed.

If the look of utter rage that overtakes the ninja's face is anything to go by, he completely believes him too. Hurrying into his room, Kakashi closed the door just in time for a shuriken to pierce the wood. Looking at the sharp edge; he has to ruffle his gray hair in nervousness. "Mah, I must have been really awful."

Omake, re-make, whatever. It would probably have been better to label this an alternate ending, but, you know...

Thanks guys, really, thank you so much for all of your support and favorites, alerts, and reviews. It means, so, so much to me! This fic is completely finished now and as unfortunate as that must be...it doesn't mean that I'm done with Kakashi!

I have a new fic called The Epic Rescue of Naruto and Sakura by Kakashi and Sasuke (but mostly Kakashi). It was the winner of my poll as was the title-which makes the premise of the fic pretty self-explanatory. I hope you'll go check it out and let me know what you think ;)

Thanks for reading and please review!
