No Matter What (KakashixReader)

Forgive Me Naruto.

"I'm going to take her home now." Kakashi's voice rang in my ears as he pulled me off of Lady Tsunade, and walked me to the office door leading me out and down the stairs to outside.

All the way back to his apartment, was just a blur to me. My mind was only focused on Jiraiya's bloody body, how I couldn't save him, how much I hated Pein.

Kakashi led me into the bathroom and sat me on the toilet lid. He turned on the water and filled the tub up with hot water. I watched him as he rolled up his long sleeves, took of his headband and pulled his mask down. He turned back to me and I was able to see the sorrow, and pain that was on his face.

He grabbed my shirt and pulled it softly over my head and put it in the hamper by the door along with my bra. He glared at the many bandages on my body and shook his head ridding himself of his anger. He stood me up and kneeled taking my ninja sandals off and then sliding my pants and panties off my legs and stood back up.

He led me to the tub and helped me get in it. I sat in the water and sighed at the feeling of the hot water on my sore muscles. He leaned me back, my head laying on a folded up towel and let me relax. He walked out, and came back a few minutes later with his Make Out Paradise book and sat in the floor by the tub. He took off his gloves and put one hand in the water and held my hand, locking our fingers tightly together. He never said a word, he didn't have to. I knew how sorry he felt, how much sorrow was coursing through his body because of our Eternal Seal.

So he sat there, holding my hand, and read his book as I laid in the hot water. I closed my eyes and settled into the water. 10 minutes passed and I remembered that I needed to go back home, to the The Land Of Snow, to my village and get my stuff.

"I need to go back home. I left some stuff there." My voice was strained from my crying.

"We will go tomorrow." Was he said and sat his book on the toilet lid and stood on his knees and began to wet and wash my hair. I sat up in the water and watched as the soap mixed in with the water.

"It wasn't your fault you know? He knew what he was getting himself in to." Kakashi started to wash my shoulders and back as he spoke.

"Going there, to the Hidden Rain was your ultimate challenge."

So did Jiraiya lie to me after all? Is that why we had that amazing meal, and expensive sake?

"Kakashi.. he treated us to his last meal..but when we went to an Inn, he said he was going to take a nap. I left to walk around the village, and he went to face Pein alone.."

Kakashi kissed the top of my head and drained the tub. He didn't say anything, I don't think he knew what to say. But then again..

"Why did I feel feel his pain through you?"

"I-I had a feeling he was going to try something sneaky and run off without me.. so I put a chakra seal on him so I'd know if he used any of his chakra.."

Kakashi nodded his head and wrapped me in a towel and I stepped out of the tub and we walked to his bedroom. I put some white underwear and one of his big shirts.

"Let's go to bed." He gave me a small smile and laid on the bed, moving to the wall so I could crawl on next to him.

I laid my head on his chest, smiling at his steady heartbeat.. and before I knew it I was sound asleep.

I woke up all alone. Kakashi wasn't next to me in bed. His side was cold meaning he's been gone for a while. I sighed and stared up at the ceiling, Remembering what happened yesterday.
