The Art of Seduction | kakashi x reader

Chapter | 04

The dark blue sky blended into lighter shades of midnight blue until a dim orange broke over the horizon. Long gone are the twinkling stars that faintly illuminated the forest but now an iridescent glow peaks through the forest canopy.

In minutes, the shinobi pair destroy all evidence of their camp and are speeding towards Konoha's borders.

Judging by the breakneck speed that Kakashi paces for the two, YN presumes that he's not planning on elaborating on last night's awkward one-sided exchange of 20 questions. Her nerves are slightly alleviated, however she wonders what Kakashi thinks of it all. Between his mask and his ability to hide his emotions under his stoic expression, YN isn't able to discern any of his thoughts or what he intends to do about it.

YN's curious about what he thinks, yet she's too hesitant to ask him. So, she continues to jump from tree branch to mossy tree branch.

One hour became two, two become four, four became six and just when YN doesn't think she's able to continue, Kakashi calls for a break.

Even while eating lunch, Kakashi doesn't try to strike up a conversation; much to the dismay of YN's wishes for some kind of normalcy. Instead, she focuses on getting food into her system and using as little chakra as she can to maintain her reserves.

As soon as they finish, they're on the move again; green leaves whizzing past their heads.

Hours pass without a single word being uttered from Kakashi's lips. YN wonders if she had made him mad from what she told him last night? It's not like what she went through is uncommon, right?

After all, last night was the first time she spoke about losing her virginity, she didn't even say anything to the girls because she didn't want to make it a bigger deal than it actually was.

Plus, she had no ill feelings towards Neji. YN was the one who initiated the awkward conversation of asking if he'd be willing to be her first – and last – time. It wasn't his fault I didn't enjoy it. And the fact that he died shortly after in the Fourth Great Ninja War, exposing the Hyuga just felt disrespectful to his memory.

The silence begins to grow from comfortable to awkward quickly – well, from YN's perspective at least. Even though she's not particularly looking forward to her training, she knows that walking into the club unprepared, basically being left in the lurch, would be worse than talking about perverse topics with her teacher.

When the silence becomes too much for her, she says, "Hey Kakashi-senpai." Lengthening the distance of her next stride so she's side by side with him. "When are you gonna train me? You haven't said a word to me all day."

The silver haired man gives her a quizzical glance and YN swears she sees his lips turn up in a smile from under his mask. "Why? Are you eager for a lesson?"

She snorts as she bounds for another branch. "Not particularly but it's your job, isn't it? I'm not quite in the mood to be eaten alive."

Kakashi chuckles softly, "well, like you said, this isn't the type of green that could persuade you to take your clothes off."

YN becomes flustered and scrunches her nose in embarrassment.

"Not to mention, we're making excellent time and if we keep it up, we can make it to a small town at the country's border soon. We won't have to sleep outside and I can start your training then. Deal?"
