Epilogue

(Y/n) smiled, even if her fingers were tracing the many scars Kakashi had on his back. It would be something to be sad about —she used to be sad about it —but right now, she couldn't help but enjoy this moment. It was a moment that had become slightly common, but that never ceased to please her, and that was, taking a shower with Kakashi.

She could feel his hard back, and not because he was very fit (which he was), but because she could feel some muscle knots here and there. She could not imagine the pressure he must've felt as a ninja. Especially after still failing every team that took his test. She thought that the least she could do is relieve some of that stress one way or another. Sometimes more than in one way. And this one, giving him back rubs and massages while soaping his back up, was the second time in the day that she tried to help with his stress. 

He sat in front of her, letting her do her thing while also enjoying her soft and tough caresses; the way her smaller and gentle hands touched his skin and cared for him. And she stood behind him, unable to think back to last week despite loving her task at hand. But it was a fact that she hadn't been able to stop thinking about something that happened the other day. The image of Kakashi and her sister talking by the outskirts of the training grounds stuck in her mind ever since then. She knew there was nothing she had to worry about, but even then, she couldn't help but be curious about what they talked about. Or well, what Alyss wanted of Kakashi.

"Kakashi," she started. He turned his head to the side ever so slightly to signal her that he was listening "What were you and Alyss talking in my first day of teaching?" She didn't want to sound crazy, or toxic, and luckily, Kakashi knew her and knew that she was asking out of curiosity and not due to any other ulterior motive. 

"She has been demoted," he started explaining while he also remembered the conversation he had with her. 

"Please, you have to help me," Alyss pleaded, having it very difficult to keep Kakashi's stare. She was desperate, and she hated to look like that. It was embarrassing, but it would be more embarrassing to be disciplined by her sister. Her sister, who had always been under her, and who she had always handled so easily. No, she couldn't go through that "If you talk to the Hokage...  maybe—"

"Move," Kakashi said uninterested. Or actually, looking somewhat annoyed. 

"Wait, just help me on this. Please..." she continued to beg, trying for him to stay and not force her to join the rest of (Y/n)'s students... Even that phrase made her cringe. How could her sister have managed to have such a great position all of a sudden?! 

It enraged her, especially because she had coincidentally been demoted. But it hadn't been her fault! Her teammates were the ones responsible for the failure of the mission! But of course, Alyss was the only one to think like that. 

Again, he didn't answer. Instead, his frown hardened.

"I'm your sister-in-law now, you have to help me" Alyss tried to approach it differently. Sounding confident but actually being even more desperate after seeing Kakashi's impassive state "If you don't help me, my father won't allow you to marry her..." she added, still confused as to why he would choose her sister. After all, he was Hatake Kakashi, and (Y/n) was... well, (Y/n). But obviously, her pity of a threat only did but enrage Kakashi even more. 

 But he seemed calm. He brought his hand to his forehead protector slowly and uncovered his left eye. And so, when he opened his closed scarred eye, his brow frowned heavily, showing her his Sharingan.
