don't forget your umbrella

Situation: Kakashi and Y/n are friends, almost best friends. And Kakashi was at the graveyard again.

"..." Kakashi

'...'  Y/n

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was 3am in the night, or almost morning. Kakashi was on his way to the big grave stone where the names of so many brave shinobis were written down to pay the respect they deserve. Thinking about Obito and Rin, he arrived there with a big sigh. The expression of his face was filled with sadness, hidden under his mask, his closed eye and headband covered one. Since Obito died, Kakashi blamed himself for his death. He could have helped him, instead he wanted to finish the mission. Because of the traumatizing death of his father, he didn't want to end like him. Hated from the whole village.

It slowly began to rain. The rain drops fell heavily on Kakashi's Jonin vest and his silver hair until it was completely wet and hanging down. He looked at the grass on the ground, almost crying. "I'm so sorry Obito...", he whispered, hoping he could hear him somewhere. "You were right, I'm scrum. Definitely."

Suddenly Kakashi sensed a calm aura of a familiar person. The person was coming closer and closer in his direction. But he didn't want to turn around and look who it was. He was embarrassed by his tears and rapidly whipped them off.

It was noone else than Y/n. With an umbrella in one of her hands, she went closer to Kakashi. Wondering, what he was worrying and thinking about. She was worried about him, she knew exactly that he had a traumatizing childhood.

As soon as she was only a few steps away from him, she stopped and glanced at Kakashi's back. He was still staring at the ground, his head hanging down, water drops falling from his wet and soft hair. Y/n knew he used to visit the grave of his friends often, but this time it felt deeper and heavier than usual. Because of his body expression, she identified his sadness even without seeing his face.

For a few minutes, she waited behind him, looking wholeheartedly in his direction. Then she got closer to Kakashi, standing next to him and protected his head with her open umbrella from the rain which got even stronger and stronger by the time.

'You're not a scrum, Kakashi', she said to him with her calm and soft voice. 'You can be really proud of yourself.'

"How do you know?"

'Cause you amaze me every time I see you. You're such a helpful person and you always put the others first. Please, don't suppress your own needs. If you need something, I'm here to listen okay?' She put her free hand on his shoulder.

'And if you're not proud of yourself, then I'll tell you something. I'm so proud of you. You're doing an amazing job and you deserve this credit.'

Kakashi's eyes widened. He slowly raised his head and looked at her.

Kakashi's Pov:

She is proud of me? Y/n? Wow... this compliment is rare as hell in my life, but that it left her tongue makes it even more special. She always comes to me when I need someone, no, when I need her. How does she do that? I really do not deserve this woman. She picks me up every time I'm down on my knees. She doesn't need many words to make her phrases precious. And she doesn't even have a clue what I was worrying about but she still came and tried to cheer me up. And I... I didn't even say thank you or anything.

~*~
She took his hand, put her umbrella in his and wanted to leave.

"Wait Y/n!"

'Hm? Do you need something?'

"Please, take the umbrella. It's yours and I don't deserve it."

'No, please keep it. I'm already soaked and I'll go home and take a hot shower. But if you stay here for a little longer, you should take the umbrella. You're sodden too so don't stay for too long or you'll catch a cold. And you can give it back whenever you have time for it or... just keep it that's not a big deal. It's just an umbrella. '

She smiled at him happily. Her smile filled Kakashi's heart with warmth and cheerfulness. All his worries were gone, all he could think about was Y/n. She turned around and was about to leave again. But she couldn't take more than a few steps as suddenly a hand grabbed hers.

"Y/n please wait... don't leave me alone..."

She turned in his direction and looked at him. Kakashi slightly blushed and was glad about the fact that she couldn't see it under his mask.

"I wanted... I... wanted to say thank you... for everything you did for me in general, not only for today."

Her cheeks got a little red and her eyes widened. She looked a bit surprised about what Kakashi has said to her. Her big eyes rapidly got filled with gratitude and she gave him her gorgeous smile again. She grabbed his free hand and whispered to him: 'I am honoured that you feel like I could've helped you. Really this means a lot to me.' Both looked deeply in the eyes of the other person in front of them. Kakashi almost lost himself in her eyes. Not only her smile, even her eyes were completely filled with compassion and charity. He was so distracted by her wonderful appearance, he completely forgot that he had still her umbrella in his one hand. Accidentally, he let the umbrella lean forward a little too far and suddenly it tipped Y/n on her head and all the rain drops fell off the umbrella in her face.

Embarrassed, Kakashi quickly pulled the umbrella back towards him. "I- I'm so sorry", he tried to apologize and turned around in awkwardness. She looked perplexed but began to giggle. 'No need to excuse, that can happen to the best.' He glanced at her again and couldn't help but grin.

"The rain is getting even heavier, may I accompany you home?", Kakashi asked her. 'Nothing better than that', she responded and hooked her arm into his in which he was holding the umbrella. They walked down the street without saying another word. However, it was a pleasant silence, and Kakashi completely forgot what he was originally thinking about before she came.

They stopped at Y/n's apartment and their gazes met again. 'You wanna stay at my place or do you wanna go home?' Kakashi flushed and looked away from her. "I think I don't have enough time for this, I'm pretty busy at the moment", he answered, inside he wanted to hit himself for his respond. 'That's alright, I didn't want to bother you. Good luck with your stuff and maybe try to get a bit sleep 'cause it's almost morning', she said understandingly and stepped into her apartment. Kakashi sighed and walked to his home.

Kakashi's Pov:

Why didn't I say yes? I could have spend a bit more time with her. I was so overwhelmed in this moment that was pathetic. And I'm obviously not busy, just lazy. Y/n probably has to go on a mission in a few hours, my missions begins in the afternoon so I haven't even had a reason to say no.

I looked at my hands and realized I still had her umbrella and facepalmed myself with my free hand.

Of course I forgot the umbrella. Omg I had the opportunity to give it back and I- never mind now I have a reason to meet her again. Yes that's a great idea and now I can mentally prepare myself for that. When should I give it back? Today already? That could seem like I planned it. Way too obvious. Or tomorrow? Maybe in a week? Not that's definitely too late.

~*~
As Kakashi arrived at his apartment, he took a hot shower and after that he read one of his favourite books. He continued thinking about the next time he could see Y/n again.

~Meanwhile at Y/n~

Y/n decided to take a hot bath instead of a quick shower. She sat in the warm water, glancing out of the window. Rain drops were dripping down the glass and the sky was still completely grey and cloudy.

'Did I bother him? Maybe he wanted me to leave him alone at the graveyard. Hopefully, he arrived at home safely', she thought. She leaned back and looked at the clock on her wall. It was almost 5am. 'Oh no I have to get ready for my mission at 6am. Maybe I should stop making late night walks on a rainy day during the week. I'll be totally exhausted today.'

She stepped out of her bathtub and got ready for her day. Secretly, she thought about Kakashi what he would do right now while she was on her mission with her team.
