Adding the votes on y!gall, ff.net and aff.net, the result is this fic will remain KakaSasu.
However, those who voted for 2 and 3 don't be too sad, I will make a KakaNaruSasu oneshot one of these

Reunion of Shadows 8
If you asked Kakashi how
this mess had happened, he wouldn't be able to explain. He had awakened with
his back leaning on his couch, Sasuke's head on his lap, Naruto's head in the
raven's one and Sakura's head on the blonde's one. Most of them had still their
legs, or at least a part of their body, curled under the Kotatsu,
keeping them warm. Cushions propped his back and were scatted all around them,
creating a nice cocoon and preventing all of them from awaking to backaches or
other delights of this kind.
He knew Sakura had appeared
sometime during the night, scowling deeply but had ended up staying with them. Naruto
had convinced her to have fun and celebrate Sasuke's return and freedom. They had pulled out the Kotatsu
around that time, along with drinks and food whose remains still sat on it. Kakashi
sighed as he noticed the two neatly folded Hokage robes; Sakura had brought
them with her, explaining a Hokage had to look good all the time, so he had to
have at least two spare robes. She had drilled into his mind that he was aloof
enough as it was and that she wouldn't tolerate him not wearing them or having them
wrinkled.
Since when had he let his
team get the better of him? He couldn't tell her off though… not when she was mourning
Tsunade's death. Another heavy sigh escaped him as he noticed he had slid his
fingers into Sasuke's hair, and was combing them gently. The young man was asleep
but the movement behind his eyelids let the copy nin know he could wake up any moment, he was still
aware of his surrounding and on guard. Like most ninjas who lived long enough
to know nowhere was safe and that betrayal waited just around the corner- it
was sickening because Sasuke was only 16. At the same time it was touching to
see proof that he still trusted them.
Kakashi combed the strands
of dark silk and he smiled fondly. He didn't deserve such trust from his team,
especially not from Sasuke, who had endured so much suffering, partly because
he hadn't been a good enough teacher to protect him from Orochimaru. However he
couldn't help feeling happy to have him back, to have his whole team safe and
close to him. He let his grey gaze sweep over his students, he was so proud of
them. Even if he had made mistakes, and they had been parted… in the end,
everything was well. Obito would be proud wouldn't
he? It scared Kakashi to think he had let people get close to him once again, especially
since the raven whose breath warmed his lap was becoming more than simply
precious.
Naruto cracked opened one
blue eye, he didn't have to blink sleep away; he had been awake for a while now
but didn't want to move from his comfortable spot on Sasuke's outstretched
legs. Furthermore, if he moved, he would disturb Sakura. Instead he used this
opportunity to savour the smile on Sakura's face, and the closeness of his long
lost team-mate.
Kakashi had been the only
one pronouncing Sasuke's name without getting depressed- he had said it as if
it meant nothing… but now that the raven was back, the change in him was
perceptible. Their usually aloof teacher seemed at peace with himself, which
hadn't been the case after Sasuke had left, even if he took pains to hide it.
The blonde bit his lip as
he took in the gloved hand buried in the dark mane, fingertips gently massaging
the scalp in what seemed an unconscious action. He had never thought Kakashi's
feeling were… Younger, he had cursed because the copy-nin
had chosen to train Sasuke; he had thought it was favouritism but soon
understood it was only because they were more compatible. After his training
with Jiraiya, he had been pleased to see the extent Kakashi would go to train
him, just like he had Sasuke. But now… now he knew even if there was no
favouritism in his teaching, it wasn't true about how he felt for them.
Naruto closed his eyes
again and breathed in Sasuke's scent. He had no words to describe it, and he
wasn’t going to compare him to flowers or other girly stuff. He let his fingers
press a little more against that warm clothed skin, enjoying the proximity, the
fact it was allowed. A pang of jealousy made him curse mentally as he couldn't
evade wondering if he would have the right to stroke Sasuke's hair like Kakashi
was doing. It was unfair the man had all Naruto had ever wanted: he was Hokage
and he had Sasuke's affection, if not love. And it was stupid of him to think
that, Kakashi had nothing to do with the situation and Naruto knew he was too
young to be Hokage yet. So he was going to be happy for them.
Sakura began to move and
sat, rubbing her eyes and giving him a sleepy smile. Then she saw the clock and
jumped to her feet.
"Kakashi-sensei! You should be at the Hokage tower
already!" she exclaimed, grabbing a robe and almost forcing the
grey-haired man inside it.
Sasuke had sat the moment
he had felt Sakura move, and so Naruto had been forced to sat too. He stretched
and stood but felt his legs wobble.
"Hey Sakura-chan you're heavy, you killed my leg!" he whined
before clopping away from his now pissed pink friend.
Naruto was pretending to
nurse a bump on his head, because really Sakura hadn't whacked him hard enough
to hurt. He saw Sasuke quietly stretch and shake his leg, trying to have blood
flow back in. The blonde grinned happily, knowing it was one of Sasuke's well
hidden kind sides. He would have to thank Sai for showing him just how much
Sasuke had cared for them… Because at first, Sai had been what Naruto had
thought Sasuke was: a bastard that only cared for himself. But even when he
kept insulting Naruto, Sasuke had always come to save him; he had always
watched his back and cared for his team.
"Everyone out, come on
we can't afford to have Kakashi be later than he already is," ordered
Sakura, hands on her hips.
They all obediently left
and Sasuke was smirking as they waved Kakashi and Sakura away. Naruto turned to
his friend to find him already walking away.
"Teme! You could wait for me!" he
accused, running after the raven.
"Ramen?" replied
Sasuke, eyeing him above his shoulder.
Naruto's grin nearly spilt
his face in two as he pounced on Sasuke. He draped an arm around his shoulders
and was shrugged away, and glared at… like in the good old times.
---------------------
They had been working on
rebuilding Konoha for most of the day. They bickered and randomly fought when
Sasuke couldn't take Naruto blabbering any longer or Naruto couldn't take
Sasuke sending insults or "hn" his way. In
fact they simply used that pretext to relieve their muscles by another activity
than rebuilding and cleaning up the wreckage… and truth be said, they were
having fun.
"Watch out
bastard!" screamed Naruto, letting a huge stone fall right where Sasuke
was.
"You dork," began
Sasuke already moving out of the way only to have a huge hand block the stone,
a long shadow covering him as brown eyes gaze worriedly at him.
"It's ok Juugo," reassured
Sasuke, not surprised as he had felt them approaching.
Them including Suigetsu,
the latter playfully sneaking around him in half liquid form. Finally he
materialized, leaning on his team leader, his pointy teeth on his ear.
"How mean Sasuke, you
could have waited for us to be released. We had to ask that idiotic Karin where
you were so we wouldn't wander helplessly in Konoha," pouted the water-nin, moving away as the raven slapped his arm away.
"She's with that
pink-haired girl, working at the hospital," replied Suigetsu at one raised
eyebrow.
That was all Sasuke needed
to know, and he went back to his work, Naruto jumping to his side, nodding to
the two new arrivals. Juugo gazed at the blonde then his leader, already seeing
the links that were there… even the one-sided ones. It wasn't his business so
he simply set to work.
"Hey Sasuke, why are
you wearing a turtleneck?" suddenly wondered Suigetsu, sitting on a stone
and drinking from his beloved bottle of water.
"He doesn't want
Naruto to hit on him," dead-panned a voice from above them.
The four of them raised
their heads to see Sai, legs dangling in the air. He waved at them, one of his
fake smile firmly set on his face. Suigetsu tilted his head.
"Hit on him? How interesting!"
And that's how they found
out that they could be friends… or at least be a good team to piss off both
Naruto and Sasuke. Hell had started when Suigetsu had wondered if the raven had
in fact something to hide, like a hickey. That lead to the
water-nin trying to make the Uchiha take it off.
Sai had joined, saying he was sure Sasuke had put it on to prevent Naruto from
ogling him. And that since Sai was Naruto's friend, he should help him fulfil
his heart’s desire, especially since with a small penis, he didn't stand a
chance by himself. Of course that had lead to Suigetsu wondering about the
blonde's masculine attributes and so on.
After such a day, Sasuke wanted
nothing more than peace and quiet. Since his team had nowhere to go, he had
invited them into the Uchiha estate. He gave them the keys to three houses (he
knew better than to put them together). He picked houses rather far from his own,
so he could have his privacy and silence, Juugo's was
the closest, in case he needed him to control his murderous rage. He had lent a
hand in the cleaning but had left as they went shopping for food.
He dropped his things and
sighed, the layer of dust having him do so lifting before slowly settling back.
He wasn't in the mood for cleaning everything; his bedroom would be enough for
now. Fortunately he had kept his deceased mother’s habit, putting clothes in garment
bags, as well as bedding. This way it was still clean and bugs and other insect
pest didn't damage them.
Sasuke frowned as he felt
eyes on him. He doubted he was being paranoid, but then it was surely an Anbu keeping an eye on him in case he went rampant or
something. It seemed the new council was still as big a pest as the old one. He
shrugged off the feeling and set to cleaning the room, keeping a weapon close
to him; a ninja could never be too careful.
When he was done, a bath
seemed more than appealing. After getting rid of the cockroaches, he would have
to do a very thorough full cleaning, since his house had been abandoned for so
long. He had water, but it was dirty at first, then it cleared as it ran for a
while. He made sure to close the window and the shutter, he didn't mind an Anbu trailing him, one peeping at him was another business
altogether. He drew a warm bath, and while it was filling, took a nice hot
shower and washed his hair (1).
As soon as he was out of
the shower, he used a tiny bit of chakra to dry his hair. The ends naturally
took their usual spiky form, the electricity in Sasuke's body made sure of
that. He grabbed his sword that he had kept at arm’s reach all this time and
settled it near the bathtub. He slid inside, closing his eyes in pleasure as
the warm water engulfed him. As much as he loved to bask in this relaxed state,
he was dead tired and really needed some sleep. He dragged a towel over to him,
causing a loud clatter when his sword fell on the floor. Sasuke cursed but as
he was bending to retrieve it, the window shattered.
Forgetting his weapon, he
swirled in the water. Chidori Nagashi
already chirping around him as he blocked the sword attempting to behead him,
instead it cut a deep gash in his arm. Without his chidori,
he would have lost the limb because the shocked attacker swore and dropped his
weapon into the water.
Another blow was sent his
way by another assailant, Sasuke jumped out of the bath to evade it.
He was now facing both of them;
the first one still crouched on the windowsill. He snorted as he saw a trail of
blood escape his nose, so much for Naruto's sexy no jutsu.
Sasuke lunged, grabbing his mask and twisted, forcing the intruder to make eye
contact. This one was done for.
Of course his comrade was
already moving, slashing at this chest. Sasuke jumped back and cursed as he saw
the man touch his partner's forehead with the tip of his fingers, he felt the
surge of chakra. He had broken the genjutsu. In a
continuation of his movement, the masked man was already back
to attacking. The men were good, especially this one.
Using a thread, he brought
his sword to him, parrying their attacks. The injured anbu
suddenly vanished but the Sharingan found him immediately. Sasuke gave a cry of
surprise as all the water drops clinging to his body suddenly turned to ice,
piercing his skin. Fortunately he had the reflex of surrounding himself with
fire, but some had already drawn blood. No mortal wounds but he needed to end
the fight fast; he was loosing too much blood and his tiredness wasn't helping.
The ground shook as a doton jutsu was used on him,
stones materializing from nowhere and burying him alive. He let them do so,
feigning surprise as the anbu close to him jumped out
of the way. Sasuke closed his eyes and concentrate, building chakra. Amateratsu blew all the stones out of his way, effortlessly
blasting them and the intruders through the wall and sent them sprawling into
the garden outside.
Knowing he couldn’t kill
them if he didn't want the council going berserk, he focused his chakra and put
out Amateratsu. Dazed and nearing chakra exhaustion, Sasuke
fled. He didn't go to his team, knowing they were probably being attacked as
well. He had to trust them to get rid of the Anbu on
their own. He had to warn Kakashi before the anbu accused
him and his team of attacking them.
---------------------
Naruto had left at least
one hour ago, after bringing ramen to his teacher and his guard dog, ie Shizune. He had been a nice
interruption but also a tiring one. Kakashi eyed Shizune
with hate. Yes hate. It was past midnight and he wanted to go home and read, or
sleep- anything but staying here to deal with stupid papers that could wait for
tomorrow. But the dark-haired girl was making sure he dealt with most of them,
seemed like Tsunade had traumatized her. Oh he could have ditched her… and he
was going to, like, right now, or would have, if yelps from the corridor hadn't
drawn his attention and then the door slamming opened.
The first thing his hopelessly
perverted mind noticed was how fucking damned beautiful Sasuke was. Especially
all naked like that, nature had been more than kind to him; he was simply
perfect. Then he noticed the beaten and bloody state his ex-student was in. In
a blink he was at his side, noticing just how pale the teen was, sweat glistened
on him, especially on his forehead. He had lost lots of blood, and some of it
was definitely coming from his eyes, otherwise his injuries weren't that
serious but he seemed abnormally tired.
"I was attacked by anbu, maybe from root… If you're lucky they are still at my
house." stated Sasuke, blinking to keep himself awake, Amateratsu
had drained him, more than anticipated it seemed.
At Kakashi's incredulous look
he added: "Just look for the big hole in the bathroom wall…"
That brought a lazy smile
on his teacher's face, well according to his twinkling and curved eye. Sasuke
frowned, pissed but didn't move, Shizune was healing
his arm, he didn't want to disturb her. He was feeling
hot and dizzy, maybe he had pushed his luck with Amateratsu- not that he would let Kakashi and the medic
know that.
"I know Sasuke, I
doubt you would be running around naked otherwise," chuckled the Hokage,
fighting himself not to pinch or slap that pretty ass.
Sasuke didn't give Kakashi
the pleasure of blushing, it was a trivial matter. People had tried to kill
him, would have certainly put the blame on him since he had kicked their ass,
so being naked was the last of his worries. However he was grateful as Shizune gave him a cloak to cover himself. He blinked once again;
it seemed he had difficulties concentrating. He was feeling so hot, as if fire
was coursing through his veins. He wiped sweat from his forehead and didn't
even notice the worried looked Shizune was giving
him.
"I demand to speak to
the Hokage!" ordered an angry voice, the door slamming open to let one of
the council members enter.
He was tall and in his late
50’s, scars marred his body but he didn't hide them as Ibiki
did. It was strange because you could almost wonder if it didn't form a bizarre
drawing. Some of them were painted in colours, none had ever asked why; most
assumed it was the important ones. Simple dark cloths clung to his body and
made his make up appear less exuberant.
"Alraune,"
greeted Kakashi, languidly leaning against his desk, but eyes sharp.
The man had strolled into
his office confidently and was now standing in Kakashi's face, only far enough back
to avoid looking blatantly disrespectful.
"That Uchiha you are
so concerned with protecting, just attacked two Anbu,
they came to the council, beaten up and badly injured to report it! They had
been keeping an eye on the teen because they believed him too hot-headed and –"
"Don't mistake me for Naruto,"
Sasuke growled, obediently holding his arm up for Shizune
to cure all the injuries the ice had made.
The man sharply turned on
his heels, visibly shaken by his presence. He narrowed his eyes slightly then
sighed.
"Well, since you're
here, give us your version of the story," he said, glancing at Kakashi as
if to ask for permission, even if he had already taken the liberty of acting.
"If I had attacked
them, they would be dead. I already gave my version to Hokage-sama,"
simply answered Sasuke, stubbornly hiding how worn out he was.
"And butt naked, mind
you," added Kakashi, his beloved porn in front of his eyes, a clear warning
that the discussion was already over.
The grey haired man gave shrug
and let his visible eye grin at the glare he received. Alraune
shook his head and went for the door.
"I see you have things
covered already. What shall I do with the two men?"
"Send them to the
hospital to be tended to," replied Kakashi, waving him away without
pulling his eyes off his favourite literature.
The door closed and before
anyone could react Kakashi had send a bird to the medical yard and another to Ibiki. He had to know if it was only two stupid Anbu trying to show off by taking down the Uchiha, or if it
was something more serious… like Root or a powerful family trying to take out a
future rival.
He was a huge threat to the
established power structure in the village, to be taken out or won over as an
ally. There was no doubt Sasuke was going to have an influential position soon.
He came from one of the most respected and feared families in the world (even now,
few people knew the dirty secret behind the fall of his clan). He had the Sharingan,
was the Hokage's former student and remained close to
him, plus, he was the future Hokage's best friend… Not
to mention being one of the more powerful ninja in the world.
"He's all patched
up," announced Shizune, surprised by the seriousness
of Kakashi's expression, despite the book opened in front of him.
"Good,"
congratulated Kakashi, turning back to his paper work, the sooner it was done
the better.
"But he was poisoned; don’t
worry, I gave him a generic antidote," she turned to Sasuke. "But
keep an eye on your body, if you feel anything out of the ordinary, come to me."
Sasuke nodded; keeping the coat
he had been given and stood up to leave. It explained why running around naked
hadn't fazed him as much as it should; he had been a little delusional from the
poison. A smirk graced his lips as the familiar voice of his teacher ordered
him to meet him at his house. He didn't add for safety purposes but it hung in
the air, unsaid. Sasuke had to admit, he hoped that it wasn't just for that...

In Japan you have a shower out of the bath, because you have to be clean before
taking a bath, the bath is only to relax (and can be with your whole family
etc).
