Recovery(KakafemNaru)

Eleven

**Flashback

Kakashi quickly tossed on a jersey and sandals before grabbing his wallet and set out to the door to get some takeaaways. The burning need to hunt for some fresh game, gut, and serve it to the blond in his bed was a high beed. But the rational part of him knew that Naruko would get mad at him for causing such a mess.

She would most likely make his training hell.....or worse, he might never be allowed to sleep with her again. That thought momentarily made Kakashi depressed. He enjoyed the warmth Naruko brought whenever he slept. He felt....safe.

Walking down the street with a slight bounce in his step, he entered a restourant and placed his orders for him, Naruko and Pakkun. The need to hunt fresh kill for Naruko served to dominate him. Kakashi thought to how Naru looked beneath him, she wouldn't submit to him and that confused him deeply. Why didn't she?

"She's a fox isn't she? Stubborn....no, not stubborn, confused, nobody taught her our ways" HE explained rather impatiently. Kakashi stiffened when he felt something slim wrap themselves around him from behind.

He smelt the familiar scent of jasmine and looked over his shoulder to see Katsumi with a sultry smile. Kakashi responded rather dryly: "They sell rice down the road and for an extra yen they'll give you soya souce"

"Mou, Kakashi...are you implying I cannot afford this restourant?" Katsumi purred into his ear as she reached up her toes for better access. "Perhaps you could treat an old friend and have our little picnics. Catch up, like old times" Rubbing her hands all over his chest.

Kakashi grabbed his order and paid before easing out of Katsumi's hold and walkes down the street. Ignoring her cutesy whine emitted from her amd waved over his shoulder.

"No thanks! I'm already having dinner in bed with a cute fox who found me in the dark!"

Kakashi ignored her yell that she'd wait for him and that he knows where to find her if he ever needed her services.

Kakashi looked to Naruko sheepishly. She hadn't said anything or even reacted and he was beggining to worry. Placing his chopsticks down Kakashi reached over to gently touch Naruko's face. Only for her to flinch and pull away from him. "Naruko..."

The blond caughed into her fist awkwardly and packed up her dinner. She suddenly didn't feel all that hungry anymore and what Kakashi had said about her being the fox that found him went completely over her head. "I just remembered that I have a meeting with Jiraiya. Excuse me Kakashi" leaving the bed and went around the door.

Kakashi quickly scrambled out of bed and grabbed her arm. "Naruko wait! You hadn't eaten yet. Atleast finish dinner before you go meet Jiraiya-sama" Kakashi knew he said something wrong because she didn't call Jiraya 'Eron-sennin'. What did he say wrong?

Pakkun saw that Naruko didn't realy want to say and so called his master. "Kakashi, Naruko is already a day late to meet with lord Jiraiya. She can eat with him or when she returns. You should also rest too, you have training tomorrow bright and early"

Kakashi looked between the blond and Pakkun. "Naru?" he whispered. Getting no reaction he reluctantly released her and she swiftly left the room closing the door behind her. Kakashi sighed sharply and slammed his fist against the wall. Pakkum gulped. The wolf was back. "Kakashi, be level-headed here. Naruko is giving up a lot to take you in and take care of you"

Kakashi growled before pacing around his room. "What is her deal?! I brought home dinner and this is how she repays me!"

Pakkun didn't like where this was going. It has been almost two decades since Kakashi allowed his.....other self, to emerge. If he didn't stop him now Kakashi would go do incredibly stupid and scare Naru off for good and he would revert back to his drunken state. "Naruko belongs to no one but herself Kakashi! Her only master is lord Jiraiya"
