Kakashi drove passed the tall skyscraper marked elegantly as Konoha Security and Law over the revolving doors of the main entrance. Officially the corporation was just that, a security company and law firm who catered to the elite. Powerful companies and celebrities who had the money and the means to request their services. The ground floor was easily accessible to everyone who wandered through its doors and the next four floors above it were reserved and only accessible by those who had an appointment. But the rest of the building, well the rest of the building, as far as the public new, was used for offices and whatever else was needed to run such a big and successful company such as Konoha Security and Law was.
Of course they would be half right in that assumption; they did indeed house many offices on the floors above. What the public didn't know was that from the sixth floor and up Konoha Security and Law was much more than just a simple security company and a successful law firm, it was a huge organization with its own special forces that not only rivaled such institutes as the F.B.I or C.I.A. but succeeded them by a long shot.
It was called ANBU and they had ties intricately woven into nearly every major business or law enforcements in the city. Where others failed they succeeded, but they succeeded through such underhanded means that no one ever noticed. The credit of their work always went to other, more known, organizations.
The sixth floor and up housed perfectly constructed indoor training areas, simulators and labs, where extensive researches were made both for military and health developments. The top most floors also housed the company dormitories for everyone who, for one reason or another, could not find housing elsewhere.
But the highest floor was where Tsunade and Jiraiya each had their offices and work area and it was there that Kakashi was headed. Therefore he made his way passed the grand entrance and down a side street where he, much to his annoyance because they certainly knew who he was, went through the extensive security check point before he could roll his bike into the massive underground parking facilities.
Once there he made his way over to the heavily secured iron doors that would then lead him to the top floors. There he pulled out a beat up looking library card and ran it through the card slot next to the doors. Kakashi was probably the only one in the whole company who had an all access pass to every corner of the building besides Jiraiya and Tsunade. Because, despite all of their technology and security wonders, no one had seemed to be able to come up with an eye scanner that didn't have a melt down because of his miss matched eyes.
As a slight revenge to the security team, and simply because he always thought it was incredibly funny, Kakashi activated the eye scan once he was on the other side and let it run over his now uncovered eyes. It would take them a while to unfreeze the system and in the mean time all security access areas would be successfully locked down to everyone who didn't possess an all access card. Of course it would land him in trouble but he was sure that it would all be forgotten when he told his bosses just why he decided to grace them with his presence this time.

Kakashi hummed along with the excruciatingly boring elevator music. He was reclining with his back against the wall opposite the silver doors, one foot propped up at knee level and his arms crossed over his chest. The posture might make him look calm, bored even, but Kakashi was nowhere near calm. He hated elevators, they made him uneasy. As if the fact that it was a tiny little death trap just waiting to plunge him to his untimely demise wasn't enough someone had obviously found it important to make sure that the users last moments would be as horrible as possible by playing instrumental versions of songs nobody liked. He'd much rather take the steps but fit as he was he really wasn't about to climb up 50 floors. He rubbed his covered eye through the bandanna; it always itched whenever he was on one of these things.
As if it remembered.
The elevator halted momentarily, Kakashi stopped rubbing his eye and glanced up at the display screen. He was on the 39th floor, only 11 more to go before he could get off of this blasted thing.
When the doors opened Kakashi gave a lazy half wave half salute and his customary "Yo." As Tenzou walked in.
The brown haired man sighed. "Figures it was you." He mumbled while he pushed in his desired floor. "When are you going to realize that shutting down the whole system that the company heavily relies on is not at all funny?"
"Probably when it stops being funny." Kakashi said smugly.
Tenzou just shook his head and chuckled. "Yes well it does manage to amuse the trainees… and it is quite funny to think of all those lab rats stuck in their glass cages while the security team fixes the problem. Although if I were you I'd be careful of any new equipment they supply you with in the future. One of these days they're bound to pull their heads out of whichever research they are doing at the moment and plot their revenge."
"Mahh… they're way too smart to do anything like that." Kakashi said as he got off the wall and headed out of the elevator as it stopped on his floor. Once out of the death trap he turned around and regarded his comrade with a serious look. "If you can, try to keep your schedule open… Something big might be coming."
And with those cryptic farewell words he walked up to yet another security door, this one made of elegant wood with golden handles. On the other side waited his destiny… well, his inevitable ass whooping at least.
On the other side he was met by the severe and frumpy looking secretary who only gave him a momentary glance before she sternly pointed to the door of Tsunade's office. Kakashi was pretty certain that Tsunade had hired the lady solely for her complete lack of charm and social skills; otherwise she'd probably never get Jiraiya to do anything at work.

Naruto, who had finally managed to stumble out of the cemetery and make his way back to the train station, found a secluded booth in one of the small restaurants there and ordered a sandwich and a coke, the waiter only gave his dog a cursory glance before walking back to the kitchen. He pulled up his phone and after staring at it for a moment, while his still somewhat trembling nerves settled further; he punched in the number for Iruka's cell phone and waited for his dad to pick up. He didn't have to wait long before the cheerful voice gave his customary phone greeting.
"Iruka, who am I speaking to?" Naruto rolled his eyes for probably the gazillionth time; Iruka was one of those technology clueless people who would bang the TV until it actually did break before he would figure out that it only needed to be plugged in before it could be turned on. A little thing called caller ID meant nothing to the man.
"It's Santa Claus." Naruto responded sarcastically out of old habit. "There was a mix up last Christmas and apparently your son Naruto got some bed linen instead of the Play Station 3 he was due."
"Ah. Yes well I'm terribly sorry but my son is at that tender stage when he needs a lot of clean sheets in case he has a little accident during the night so we thought that gift would be more practical."
Naruto paused for a terrifying second before he moaned. "Daaad… please tell me you did not just insinuate that I wet the bed to the whole teachers' lounge."
"Who said anything about wetting the bed?" Iruka's mirthful voice rang in his ear. "Honestly I don't know why people want to have boys; as soon as they are old enough to stop wetting the bed they find a whole new way to dirty the sheets in their sleep."
"Dad!" Naruto hissed, glancing around the restaurant like he was afraid people could actually hear their conversation.
Iruka laughed. "Don't fly off the handle sunshine, I'm still in the classroom and the kids are all gone. Your street rep is safe for another day."
"Street rep? What street rep? You and Genma never allowed me to have any street rep." Naruto smiled his thanks to the waiter who'd just brought his food over before he focused back on his phone call.
His dad chuckled quietly before his voice took on a more serious tone. "So how are you today sweetheart?"
'I'm an emotional wreck who's slowly slipping kicking and screaming over the thin line into insanity' Naruto thought before he answered. "I'm fine dad. Really. It's not as hard as it used to be, you know."
"I know sunshine, I know. But I'm gonna be long gone and buried before I stop worrying about you, you know that."
Naruto smiled. "I know." He said reverently. He would never admit it out loud but Iruka's habit of calling him pet names when he was worried about him always served to remind him just how much the man cared for him. But suddenly Naruto thought why not admit it. He knew all too well that family should not be taken for granted and if anything were to happen to either him or his dads he wanted them to know how important they were to him, how much he really cared for them.
"Dad." He hesitated and fiddled with the fork next to his hand. "You know I love you right?"
Iruka put down the chalk duster he'd been cleaning the black board with before he sat down at his desk. His son's voice had sounded so small and fragile and it made his heart clench that he couldn't be with him right now to wrap him in his arms. "Naruto… Did something happen love?"
"No. I just… if something ever happened… you know right?" His son answered again in that tiny unsure voice.
The young teacher sighed and rubbed his hand over his face to clear the moisture from his eyes. "I know love, I know." He said soothingly. "We love you too, with all our hearts. I might not have carried you for nine months or even known you for the first years of your life but you are my son, our son, and nothing will ever change that. So don't worry about that ok? You mean the world to us."
"Yeah… I just… I don't ever want to take you for granted."
Naruto stared at his sandwich once his call was over. He wasn't all that hungry anymore but he felt much calmer now than he had before.
Xxxxx
Iruka stared into space after he'd hung up. It was a long time since he'd heard his son sound so broken. Angry, upset, nervous or even scared he got plenty of, but he hadn't heard that broken down voice in years. It made him worried, really worried, and he wished, not for the first time that day, that he could have been there with him today. He wouldn't even get to see him until tomorrow when he would come by the youth center with Kakashi. It had been decided that they would come in the morning to teach the older kids but Iruka was going to give the younger ones a day off and would supervise them in the game room so Naruto wouldn't miss too much of his training camp.
After a while Iruka picked up his phone again and dialed Genma's number. Naruto said he would be going to see him before he'd leave for school and he wanted the man to make sure that Naruto was alright before he left.

Tsunade was sitting in her office looking out the big windows at the city bustling bellow, the high back of her chair blocking her from view of anyone who walked through her door. All those people, all that crime. Every other day of the year she told herself that the streets were safer because of what they did. But this day… only this day did she let herself think about a blond young man and his beautiful wife… and the fact that no matter how good they were and how hard they tried they just couldn't save everyone.
She swirled around when the intercom cracked and her secretary announced the arrival of one of her favorites. She narrowed her eyes on the door, waiting for the brat to show his face. Or as much of his face as he ever showed anyway.
She didn't have to wait long and before the man had even fully stepped into her office she fired at him. "Brat! Would it be too much to ask for you to actually act like the fully grown man that I know you are instead of some immature kid? If you can't be trusted to walk around the building on your own I can always have someone from the security team escort you around to open doors for you."
Tsunade stopped talking, for half a second both eyebrows rose in surprise before she narrowed her eyes again. Kakashi had not looked at her since he entered her office and was now rubbing the back of his head with one arm. She didn't get to be the head of ANBU just by looking pretty and knowing the right people and she didn't have to be the head of ANBU either to see that this man was nervous about something and it certainly wasn't because she was scolding him for fucking up the security system.
Before the man could so much as move another muscle she commanded. "Come in and sit down." She indicated the chair on the other side of her desk before she pressed the intercom button. "Jiraiya, my office. Now!"
Xxxxx
Jiraiya nearly spilled his coffee all over his new manuscript when the intercom crackled. He looked forlornly at the half finished page before he reluctantly left poor Ryuu hanging in the middle of a steamy scene, Tsunade wouldn't call him like that if it wasn't important.
He hastily made his way out of his office and kept his eyes firmly on the floor as he hurriedly walked past the secretary's desk, only nodding slightly so as not to be rude when the woman behind it greeted him eagerly in a husky nasal voice. He tried not to shudder, that woman seriously reminded him of a pig in a pearl necklace and unfortunately she'd taken a very unhealthy, in his opinion, interest in him. Honestly the woman had no neck what so ever because of her porky built and what kind of a name was Tonton anyway for a lady.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he entered Tsunade's office but quickly gulped it back down once he saw the look on the woman's face. Something was up and it didn't bode well.
Xxxxx
Kakashi waited until Jiraiya had gotten himself as comfortable as he could half sitting on Tsunade's desk before he looked up, studying each of his bosses in turn to try to judge their moods.
The heavy silence was broken soon after by Jiraiya as he asked. "Sooo… anyone want to tell me what's going on or was I called in here to judge a staring contest?"
Tsunade only gave her partner a momentary glance before she turned her glare back at Kakashi. "Speak." Was the only thing she said.
And so, Kakashi did.
He told them all about accidentally finding Naruto again, how he had only wanted to see how he was doing for himself instead of relying on the little tidbits and news he'd been able to worm out of anyone who'd heard even the slightest thing about him. Because Tsunade and Jiraiya always refused to give him even the slightest hint of how he was, even going so far as to block his access from any of the boys files.
He told them how, once he'd started talking to the boy, who had no idea who Kakashi was anymore, he just couldn't walk away and how, due to some divine joke, events that he had no control over had made it impossible for him to do just that. How the boy had joined the club he was instructing in his sabbatical from work, how the principle of the school had specifically asked him to look after the boy after he had been falsely accused of a crime and how one of the boys adoptive fathers had called in an old debt and asked him to help his son teach a few classes while his boyfriend was away due to a broken leg.
And lastly he told them just how much he cared for the man the boy he once knew had grown into and that there was absolutely no way that he could ever walk away now.
Not so long after his story Kakashi found himself sitting outside the office he'd just been in staring dazedly at a homey plant and listening to the secretary type away on the computer while his bosses held a meeting about all he had just told them. He'd been asked quietly by Tsunade to go and wait outside for a bit, he couldn't help feeling like a little kid who got sent to his room while his parents argued over him. Not that he really knew what that was like since he'd never experienced that in his childhood, but he was pretty sure the feeling was similar to the one he was feeling at the moment. He didn't know if he should be relieved or not over the fact that they had decided to ask him to leave instead of arguing over him like he wasn't even there.
Xxxxx
Tsunade sighed as she watched the young man leave. She'd always known their decision in this matter would come back and bite them, she'd just never imagined it would be like this.
"This has to stop! Naruto will end up getting hurt." Jiraiya concluded as he took the seat Kakashi had just left.
Tsunade looked at her oldest friend defiantly. "What about Kakashi? This might be just what he needs! You know he hasn't been the same since that night. And this might end up being what's best for Naruto as well, he'll have to deal with it at some point."
"We can't risk it!" Jiraiya snapped. "Tell Kakashi to back off now. I know they are close but Naruto will get over it, it'll be infinitely better than what might happen if this continues. You know what happened last time!" He almost shouted at the blond woman.
He had nothing against Kakashi, he and Tsunade both had a big soft spot for the young genius. But Naruto was his godson and he took that bond very seriously now. He might have failed the boy in the beginning of his life but he'd pulled his act together and there was no way he would fail the boy again, and if that meant Kakashi had to pay for it then that was just how it had to be.
"No! Last time we did what you wanted and look what that got us." Tsunade argued. "Kakashi became a robot who only lived for work and Naruto got kicked between foster homes where people treated him worse than dirt until by some divine joke Genma's boyfriend decided to take him in."
"I should know!" She cried. "I was the one who had to watch Kakashi turn into an emotionless death machine, I was the one who had to clear up the shit every time he went too far on a mission and I was the one who finally had to put my foot down and tell him that he'd either get his shit together or end up on the most wanted list himself."
"I was also the one who had to monitor Naruto and handle all of his transfers and I was the one who had to see the system and laws we value so much fail him every single time!"
Tsunade paused slightly but not long enough for Jiraiya to speak up. The blond woman pointed an accusing finger at her friend.
"It's easy for you to talk about running away from the problem or ignoring it because that's exactly what you did last time! When will you learn that turning your back on something doesn't make it disappear just because you can't see it anymore?"
Tsunade didn't expect the man to answer her rhetorical question but after what seemed like an age of silence the old man seemed to deflate in his chair, his shoulders dropping as he fixed his gaze on the desk between them.
"The last time I pushed at a problem that should have been left alone it snapped back and I lost the man I considered to be my son."
Tsunade's eyes softened. "We both did old man." She said as she laid her hand over his. "Let's not overstep ourselves and loose two more alright?"
"Besides, it's too late to do anything now. We don't even know if anything will happen, all I know is that if we separate them now they'll both be hurt for sure. But if we let them be and see what happens then at least there is a chance that things might actually go right for those two for once. They need it… we all need it."
Jiraiya regarded the woman with wary eyes before he gave a slight nod. She always had been the smartest one of the old trio, definitely nowhere near as cunning as Orochimaru or as hardworking and determined as himself but smart she was. And unlike her two old friends she knew how to work with people, it was the reason he gladly let her rule the company they had helped build. Despite what she wanted you to think the woman cared and where others saw workers she saw people, individuals, who all had their own contributions to make to the company.
For once he decided to leave his hot head out of the matter and just trust fate to finally shine some fortune into his godson's and Kakashi's life.
"I guess we were fools." He said quietly.
Tsunade gave his hand a little squeeze. "That we were old man. That we were." She answered just as quietly. "But even fools can learn from their mistakes."

Naruto walked into the locker room of the dojo and sat next to Kiba who was in the process of dressing himself in his martial arts outfit. A simple pair of sweat pants and a loose fitting sweater this time.
They didn't have a specific outfit they were required to wear for a number of reasons. The main one being that they practiced many different styles of martial arts and the school couldn't afford to supply them with different outfits each year and it was against school policy to have students pay for any equipment needed for clubs, this was done so anyone who couldn't afford said equipment could still participate in the club of his or her choice.
Some, like Kakashi and Neji, opted to just wear a variation of the judo or karate outfits. Others, like Naruto and Kiba, simply wore something comfortable like sweat pants and t-shirts or long sleeve shirts depending on what they were doing. There was simply no describing the category Gai or Lee fell into, especially after the weather had turned colder and they had both started wearing those orange leg warmers with their spandex outfits.
"Hey dude." Kiba mumbled around the collar of the sweater he was in the process of pulling over his face. "You just made it for warm up. Get your suit on and I'll show you where to drop your bags off before we head out yeah?"
There was no mention of Naruto's day before he came here and for that he was thankful. His friend knew him well and what Naruto needed at the moment was to just forget how he'd spent his morning and go on with his day like he did any other day of his life.
He'd gone and seen Genma earlier to drop off the dog before he took the train to school. Iruka had apparently called the man shortly after Naruto had talked to him and after his dad had pretty much forced him to sit down with him on the old worn out couch he had in his office Naruto had finally cracked a little bit. He'd told his dad that he was having nightmares again and how they left him feeling uneasy in the mornings, the understatement of the century if ever there was one, and how he was worried about spending the weekend over at the training camp because of it. That he was afraid to make a fool of himself in a room full of his club mates.
His dad had pulled him into his arms then, something he very rarely did these days, it had always been Iruka who had been more of the comfort type and who still ignored Naruto's loud grumblings whenever he hugged the boy. And Naruto had hugged him back just as tightly, feeling a bit disappointed in himself for not talking to his dad sooner. Genma had stroked his hair just like he used to do when Naruto was younger and offered to call Kakashi and ask him if Naruto could sleep in another room but he wouldn't hear about it.
He'd told his dad that he'd just talk to Kiba and ask the boy to wake him up if he got a nightmare, but as he watched his friend happily bustle about getting ready he found that he couldn't do it. He needed this sense of normal. Just two friends getting ready for practice and chatting about unimportant things. He didn't want to have to ask his friend to wake him up before he screamed his head off and woke up the whole room. Have his friend walking on eggshells around him all weekend because Naruto just might fly off the handle and do something crazy.
He just wanted to be normal.
"Get a move on lazy-pants. God knows what Gai will make us do if we're late! We'll probably end up running 200 laps backwards while blindfolded or something." Kiba said as he slapped Naruto playfully on the hip.
Naruto snapped out of his brooding and smiled at his friend. "Yeah yeah dog-breath. I'm moving, I'm moving." He said as he pulled his sneakers out of his gym bag.
"Pheeww, well at least my feet don't smell like something crawled inside my shoes and then started to rot." Kiba faked a gag. "I'll just take your bags to the room while you finish and we'll look at it later to speed things up. Wait for me by the door yeah? Safety in numbers and all that." He winked and darted out of the room with Naruto's overnight bag.
Naruto just watched his friend walk away smiling. Yep, this was exactly what he needed.

That night Kakashi was lying on the pull out couch he had in his office. Before Itachi had offered him, in a very roundabout way, the apartment he was now renting he'd pretty much been living in his office after he'd moved out of his room at headquarters, hence the sleeping couch.
He'd been surprised to find both of his bosses rather calm when he came back into Tsunade's office earlier that day, he'd been expecting a huge argument not the reserved individuals who had greeted him as he walked through the door and told him to do what he thought would be best. He'd been so shocked he'd almost forgot to tell them about what Itachi had told him that morning. They would keep their ears and eyes open but until Orochimaru actually did something that could be considered criminal there was very little they could actually do. And the viper wasn't known for making rookie mistakes or leaving behind any evidence of his supposedly illegal activities so it would be like trying to find a needle in a haystack to pin anything on him or figure out what he was doing until it was too late.
As he lay there in the dark he was suddenly roused from his thoughts by quiet noises coming from the hall. They were barely there but due to his training they didn't have to be in order for Kakashi to pick them up. He reached up and picked up the bandanna he'd left on the back-headboard of his makeshift bed. He pulled it on and slanted it over his sensitive eye before he reluctantly got out of bed and made his way over to the door of his office to investigate, he didn't have to bother with a mask because he usually slept in one of his ANBU issued tank tops which came with an attached mask.
'Why am I not surprised?' he thought as he spotted the source of the noises. If he didn't like him so much the boy would certainly be the bane of his existence.
"Naruto." He called quietly to the boy. "What are you still doing up? We have an early start tomorrow."
The boy jumped slightly before he turned to look in his direction. He was wearing a worn out t-shirt that must have been an old favorite since it was now about two numbers too small for the boys frame and loose pajama pants that rode low on the boys hips, leaving a tantalizing line of skin exposed between top and bottom and making Kakashi wonder if the boy hadn't just walked right out of his wet dream and into the hallway.
Naruto stepped from side to side nervously at some point deciding to plunge his hands into the pockets of his pj pants, not knowing what else to do with them.
"Why aren't you in bed like the rest of them?" Kakashi asked him when no answer was forthcoming.
The boy shuffled closer to his door before he mumbled. "Not really tired that's all." Not looking at the man.
Kakashi studied him in the low moonlight that filtered in from the windows. He didn't buy that story for one minute, the boy looked like he hadn't slept in weeks and would keel over or simply fall asleep standing in that exact spot soon.
He increased the opening of his office door. "Come on, get in." He said. Once inside he lead Naruto over to the sleeping couch and tucked the boy in before getting in himself at the other side. His brain only spared a few seconds to contemplate how natural that action had felt before he rolled over and regarded the other occupant of the bed, who was at the moment doing exactly the same from his side of it.
"Can… can I stay here tonight?" Naruto asked hesitantly. He´d tried to go to sleep in the dojo where the rest of the club members had spread out their futons but he'd been too restless to manage it. Everyone else had fallen asleep over an hour ago and Naruto, finally having had enough of tossing and turning had gotten out of bed and wandered around aimlessly, wondering if he could find some quiet place he could drag his futon to. He'd have to wake up before the rest of the group anyway to go to the youth center, so he'd be able to put his futon back again without anyone realizing it. So if he got a nightmare no one would know.
He studied the shadow that was lying opposite him on the bed, he couldn't really see much of Kakashi's features in the dark, just the basic outline of him and a few details depending on where the almost none existent light hit him. Staying here with the man just felt so natural to him that he thought he wouldn't have any trouble falling asleep.
Kakashi sighed softly, the mask blocking the sound as it escaped his lips. He shouldn't allow this, should send the boy right back to the dojo where the other students were but he had a feeling Naruto would just go back to wandering the hallways if he did and there was something about the boy that just made it impossible for him to say no to his request.
He wouldn't let the boy win so easily though and therefore said. "If you tell me why, I'll let you stay."
"I…" Naruto hesitated and then he did something he had never done before. He opened his mouth and poured his soul out. He didn't know why, but somehow it just felt right. He wanted to tell this man everything, wanted him to know everything. And if he was still there after all of it… god he hoped he'd still be there after all of it… then he knew that he'd never have to doubt the man ever again.
Kakashi sensed the change in the young man. He reached out for him and pulled him closer, maneuvering him so that he was now spooned with his back against Kakashi's chest and his head resting against his bicep. He nuzzled the back of Naruto's head before he whispered. "Tell me."
"I have nightmares." Naruto said. He pressed a little closer into the chest behind him and then lightly grabbed the hand that was cradling him, one thumb soothingly rubbing back and forth across his chest, not restricting it but simply holding it for that extra bit of comfort.
"Bad?" came the gentle whisper in his ear.
"Yeah."
"You want to talk about it?"
"I can't…" Naruto paused. "It's just… the nightmares aren't really about anything most of the time. I'm just running, searching for something. It's not really images but feelings that are so terrifying."
"What are you searching for?" Kakashi gently pushed when Naruto stopped.
Naruto closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths before he plunged on. In order to make him understand he had to tell him the beginning, how it all started, and… how it had ended. How he was still carrying the demon of his past around with him today.
"When I turned six my parents were murdered." Naruto whispered. "I was there when it happened… but… I don't really remember any of it. The doctors say that it was probably so traumatizing that I blocked out the memory."
"What do you remember?" Kakashi couldn't help but ask despite knowing he shouldn't. But maybe it would do the boy good to talk about it.
"Just… bits and pieces of the day before the murder. Everything else I found out afterwards either in the hospital or from hearing other people talk about it. I was never really involved in the case, I was too young and the case was solved and closed before I was even out of the hospital anyway."
Kakashi wrapped himself tighter around Naruto. He knew all of this already, but his companion didn't know that, and he needed the boy to tell him. Naruto needed to talk about it.
"Tell me." He breathed in the young man's ear.
"It was my uncle." Naruto finally said and now that he had started he couldn't seem to stop. "My mother had an older brother that came and visited us often. He was my absolute favorite… I thought he was so cool. He had long red hair like my mother, a goatee and this huge tattoo of a nine tail fox on his chest. I'd never seen it before… all I remember is opening the door that day to see him standing there… he wasn't wearing a shirt so the first thing I noticed was the tattoo… and the last thing I remember is that he grabbed me."
"That's what I dream about. I'm always searching, I guess I'm trying to remember, but it always stops at that moment. And I feel like the world is crumbling down and I wake up and I can't breathe." Naruto said, a quiet sob escaping him.
"Shhh" Kakashi soothed him. "It's over, it's all over, he's gone now."
"It's not." Naruto shuddered. "It never will be. He never will be. Not completely."
"It's just a dream…" Kakashi tried to reassure the shivering boy.
"You don't understand!" Naruto cried as he wrenched himself out of Kakashi grip. He sat up and turned to face the silver haired man again, he collided with a firm chest before arms encircled him again. "I died." He pulled back far enough to look into that one eye he could barely make out. "He killed me and I should have stayed dead!"
"Naruto…"
"I don't know how it happened… but he got wounded in the attack… they kept us both alive long enough to get us to the hospital… and then they transferred his heart into me."
Kakashi froze. This was one thing he had not known about. He knew Naruto had been brought in and spent hours in surgery while the doctors had operated on his badly wounded heart and that his uncle had died on the way to the hospital but this… this was something he'd never been told. Something none of the files he had managed to see had mentioned.
"His heart is beating in my chest! I'll never be rid of him! The scars on my face, the scar on my chest… every single heartbeat only serves to remind me of that monster."
"Shhh." Kakashi hushed as he pulled the boy closer until he had him straddled in his lap. "Shhh." He soothed as he clung to him and rocked him slowly side to side while he rubbed slow circles on his back. And when he felt the first tears soak through his thin shirt he pulled his mask down and kissed them away carefully. "Shhh. I got you." He was pretty sure the boy wouldn't be able to see his face in the dark but even if he could he didn't care anymore. He just wanted to sooth this young man he cared about more than anything. "I got you now."
He didn't know how it started. Didn't know how long they had been sitting there like that. Before the slow tender kisses turned into something more heated. The slow circles turned into sensual caresses. And the hands that had been clutching his shoulders moved and tangled themselves in his hair while their tongues slid against each other.
Soon they had to break apart for air. Kakashi studied the young man in his arms, his eyes had always worked well in the darkness. Naruto looked like an angel. He had tear stained eyes, lips swollen from kissing and he was panting in between the occasional sob. He looked so young and vulnerable… and it was the most beautiful thing Kakashi had ever seen.
He was going to stop, make sure they didn't do anything the boy might come to regret the next morning.
And then Naruto thrust his hips forward, rubbing their erections together in one hard move that made them both moan, and all thoughts left him. He had just about enough sense left to decide that he would not fuck the young man through the mattress like his body was screaming at him to do.
When the boy continued the frottage Kakashi put his hands on his hips and stopped him. Naruto gave a whine that could have sent Kakashi over the edge then and there.
"Wait." Kakashi mumbled into the boy's mouth as he kissed him again before he collected the pillows against the headboard. He seated himself up against them and then pulled the boy back to him so the boy's back was again situated against his chest.
"Kakashi…" Naruto moaned as the man's erection was now rubbing against his ass through their pajamas.
Kakashi was kissing, nibbling and licking every part of the boys neck he could reach, working his way up to gently bite his earlobe before he worked his way down again, across the back of his neck and then up the other side.
He ran both hands down the sides of Naruto's body and when they reached that agonizing smooth skin where the boy's t-shirt ended his left hand slid under it before he slowly brought it up his stomach, his fingers tracing unseen patterns across is abdominal muscles before they sneaked up and started rubbing and teasing a nipple.
His right hand slid lower, first running down the outside of a thigh before he firmly brushed it up the inside of it and up to the bulge in the younger man's pants.
"Kah…" Naruto moaned as a firm hand closed over his cloth covered cock. He clenched his hands in the fabric over the other man's thighs as he involuntarily bucked his hips. The sensation was incredible and he couldn't help but do it again. Each time he did Kakashi's hand would rub more firmly over his now leaking erection, the fabric of his own pajama pants only serving to heighten the sensation, and the man's own cock would slide further into the crease between his cheeks.
"Please…" He begged.
"Please what Naruto?" Kakashi breathed hotly in his ear.
"Please…" Naruto begged again. He didn't know what he was begging for. Just knew he needed something. The kisses on his neck, the fingers pinching and soothing his nipples, the hard cock at his back and the firm hand on his erection were driving him wild.
When Naruto started thrusting his hips faster and breathing harder Kakashi knew he was close. The boy gave a mumbled protest when he took his hand away but then cried out loudly when Kakashi slid it into his pants and wrapped it around his straining cock. One, two tugs later and Naruto was shooting his load over Kakashi's hand, the boy's hips bucking wildly in his orgasm was too much for Kakashi. He bit the younger man's shoulder hard enough to leave a mark and growled as he rode out his release.
When it was over and he could catch his breath again Kakashi moved them both down until they were spooned against each other, Naruto's head tucked under his chin, legs wrapped together in a tangle.
Kakashi buried his nose in the boy's hair and kissed his forehead. "I got you little fishcake… I got you." He mumbled before sleep took him.
