Beauty of Dawn

Like Brother Like Sister

Kakashi woke up to the sound of a thud
He looked up bewildered

"Akemi" he paused looking at her on the floor with a red face

" I.... I'm a little sore from yesterday I was gonna take a shower but...." she giggled while playing with her fingers STILL on the floor

"Ah....well let me" Kakashi Akwardly got up and as fast as he could put on his sweatpants and carried her to the bath room sitting her on the sink so he could fix up a bath for her

"I don't have any soap that has a smell to it I hope thats okay"

"Ya thats all right" she was still fiddling with her hands looking anywhere but him

When the bath was nice an hot he scooped her up and put her in the bath she sank down with a hiss

For a moment they sat there in an awkward silence till Akemi patted the side of the tub for him to sit, he sat a little uncomfortable but not that bad

Kakashi figured Akemi wanted to talk about what happen

"Do you want too start a relationship" Kakashi watched as her hand abruptly stopped the scrubbing she was doing on her leg and her face turned further down

"No"

Her answer made Kakashi jerk away from her as if she physically hit him 'no... that couldn't be right' he tried to stay calm but really how could he his mind went a mile a minute

'Was it something I did.... of course I'm an idiot it must have been my fault.... mabey she changed her mind she really thought about what a relationship with me would be like and figured it was too much of a hassle.....or did....she never said no last night no she had said yes several times if he remembered correctly....

Pain and horror struck his face

'Kami above was...was he bad at sex l.... He has never had a woman or man comment badly on his....performance before but what if Akemi didn't enjoy it or-

"Stop over thinking Kashi" finally his eyes snapped back down to her and she grimaced at the way he looked at her

"It's nothing you did or said it's just" she took a deep breath taking his large hand in hers

" I don't want you to ask me out because you feel obligated to I do love you but I want a meaningful relationship not something you did because you feel bad about fucking me then leaving"

Kakashi's shoulders dropped and he audible sighed

'So I did nothing wrong and I'm not bad during sex' that was a relief to him he thought then her words really sunk in

"I...." Kakashi really thought about what she said and what she wanted from him

Kakashi gently ccaressed her thigh hummimg

"I do feel a little pressure to ask you out" he admitted quietly

"I'll admit I do... fancy you more then a little" Akemi laughed smacking his arm

"You love me" Akemi giggled out

"Yes I do" Akemi's eyes went comically wide and she sputtered

"But right now I can't even say those words to you even though I want to and I really do I just don't have the right to say those words to you yet"

The room went quiet except for the sloshing of the bath water as akemi cleaned the rest of her body

Akemi pulled at Kakashi to help her drain the tub and stand
