Enjoy otherwise!

'Operation: Get Uchiha Itachi To Display Affection In Public!'

Phase 1: Jealousy

Subject 1: Uchiha Shisui – Failure

Subject 2: Hatake Kakashi – Yet To Be Completed

Hatake Kakashi was a pervert.

That fact was easily obtained from any Konoha ninja, even ones who had never spoken to him before. It was common knowledge that the Jounin went to the bookstore every week to pick up some book – particularly a little orange book.

Kagome would use that to her advantage.

'Does Itachi even have any kind of relation to Kakashi?' Kagome pondered, walking down the street in a slow pace – Itachi was right beside her, giving the passing civilians a rather frightening passive stare if they looked at them too long. The miko didn't even notice as she thought of how she could possibly get Itachi to display any kind of affection in public – even if it was a simple kiss on the cheek or even something as little as holding hands!

"Itachi," Kagome asked lightly, catching Itachi's attention. He glanced over at her with his dark eyes, slightly raising his eyebrow in response, "Do you think that we can stop at the bookstore before we go to the Uchiha district?" The miko-ANBU asked, trying to sound casual as she possibly could.

Itachi simply nodded, not one for words if he didn't have to say anything, "Great! You can come with me!" Kagome smiled brightly up at her love-interest, trying to grab his hand with her own gloved one. She pouted a moment later, seeing that he moved his hand before she could even touch it. And yet again, Itachi didn't even seem to notice his own movements.

"Do not be long, Haha-ue would like to start dinner soon." Itachi stated in his quiet, yet powerful voice – raising the grocery bags in his hands just a little so Kagome could see them. The miko nodded lightly, giving him another bright smile.

"Ah – so does that mean you don't want me to cook?" Kagome teased, though Itachi merely gave his trademark 'hn' for his response, "I'll take that as a no, then. You could just say you don't like my cooking." The miko was having to much fun teasing the Uchiha – who simply lightened his tense pale face, "Alright, I'm just teasing you." The miko laughed a bit, lighting up as she spotted the bookstore.

"I won't be too long." Kagome murmured lightly, leading the passive Uchiha into the bookstore. She smirked slyly as she spotted her current prey – who was simply reading that little orange book. Her blue eyes darkened, and she flicked her eyes over to Itachi – internally relieved as he didn't notice her change in expression.

Alright – hopefully, this would work.

"I want something on better chakra control." Kagome murmured to Itachi, who vaguely nodded – and helped his girlfriend search exactly what she was looking for. It didn't take Itachi too long to find a book on precise chakra control – something that Kagome didn't exactly need, but could improve on. Chakra was a bit harder to control than her holy powers, but she managed it.

"Thanks, Itachi." The miko-ANBU smiled at the Uchiha, bright blue eyes shined with affection. The Uchiha only gave his usual 'hn,' but Kagome was used to it – from Itachi, Inuyasha, and even Sasuke.

Kagome had a light bounce in her step, pretending to be too into entranced by the book as she collided with Hatake Kakashi – bumping rather harshly into his back. "Ouch!" The miko muttered, the hard and surprising bump caused both ninja to drop their books at the same time. Conveniently, the chakra control book was the same orange colour as the Icha Icha book.

"Oh! I'm so sorry!" Kagome faked her apology – it was easy enough as she had to do so to Inuyasha countless times, "Here, let me." The miko kindly bent to pick up the two books, not really noticing as Kakashi seemed to stare at her behind.

Itachi, however, was not amused.

"Here." Kagome smiled at the famous Copy-Ninja, intentionally handing him the wrong book. Kakashi took it, not really noticing the book wasn't his as the tight silver vest-armour was rather tight around Kagome's curvy figure – especially around her breasts. She smiled, leaning slightly – and giving him a rather nice view. "Oh! I recognise you! You're Hatake Kakashi, aren't you?" Kagome asked.

Kakashi lightly cleared his throat, finally breaking out of whatever trance he had been in before as he noticed that Uchiha Itachi was currently glaring at him. Oh, right – then this must mean that this girl was his new mysterious girlfriend, Higurashi Kagome.

The miko was about to say something else as Itachi grabbed her arm, "Haha-ue wants us back soon." Itachi reminded her, though his obsidian eyes were harsh on Kakashi.

"Right!" Kagome blinked, smiling a bit slyly as Itachi seemed to hover over her, guiding her over to pay for the book. Kakashi didn't say a word during this – even when he noticed that the book Kagome handed back to him was the wrong one.

He knew better then to make enemies out of Uchiha Itachi – and in extension, the entire Uchiha clan as wall. Still, that didn't mean he couldn't appreciate a nice female figure – even if that female happened to be Uchiha Itachi's current interest.

Itachi noticed, and certainly didn't like it. He was too busy watching Kakashi to even notice that the book Kagome was paying for was the wrong one. He quickly guided her out of the bookshop – headed towards the Uchiha district.

"Wow – that's some nice chakra control." Kagome stated, her blue eyes wide as she stared at the book, it was flipped open to a rather explicit picture, "Maybe we should try that." The miko-ANBU snickered, actually joking – and blinkled in surprise as she was suddenly trapped against the wall with Itachi leaning over her.

"We will." Itachi said in a low and somewhat alluring voice, surprising Kagome with a soft promising kiss. Kagome widened her blue eyes, surprised because he usually only did this while they were in the privacy of the Uchiha district when no one else was around.

The miko was a bit dazed when Itachi released her with a small smirk, practically dragging her back to the Uchiha district. When Kagome finally snapped out of her daze, she realised it was almost completely dark out – she could almost cry.

There wasn't anyone around to actually see any of that!

However, Kagome didn't notice Kakashi lurking around on the rooftops – his only visible eye was trained on the two intently.

Until Itachi glared back at him, that is. He left a second later...
