Hikari and Kakashi wrote to each other every single day. Every free moment they had, they spent writing to each other. They got closer, although it had already been three months since he left. Hikari couldn't stop thinking about Kakashi. The he gave those adorable eye smiles, the way he smelled like pine trees and rain. That gray hair, that somehow always seemed to be defying gravity. And Kakashi in turn couldn't stop thinking about Hikari. Her piercing blue eyes, her rosy cheeks that just stood out against her ivory skin, her soft long white hair that always smelt like a combination of lavender and the sea. The way she made his heart skip a beat whenever he saw her. Sometimes he had to remind himself that he needed to focus, lately he got way to distracted. Everything somehow reminds him of Hikari and made him long for her, but it was dangerous to be distracted when you're an ANBU and on an S-rank mission. But he just couldn't stop thinking about her. He had to see her one way or the other, he would see her again... Soon. He had to, he couldn't take it anymore.... Being apart from her.
Hikari lit up every time Kakashi wrote to her and told her about his day and his missions, although he couldn't tell her too much since most of it was classified. But he told her as much as he could. People in the village hidden in the leaves had noticed a difference in Kakashi. As anyone would, if you weren't blind that is. Although quite good at camouflaging his emotions, when he though of Hikari he just couldn't help but smile. The Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, had noticed that Kakashi had been happier lately and wondered what had changed, the only thing he knew for a fact was that it happened after his mission in the land of lightning, but suspected it was a woman that was the cause of this change. It's always about a woman, isn't it?
Kakashi, who was finally back from his last mission, was thinking of a way he would be able to see Hikari again. It had already been three months. He really longed to see her, but it was fairly impossible. He had to notify the Hokage, he had no other choice but to ask permission to leave Konoha for a while. A month or so, few weeks. He wasn't to picky, as long as he would be able to see her again.
Lord Third was surprisingly supportive of this. Kakashi certainly hadn't expected that, it almost seemed as if he knew. But he had gotten his permission to leave for two months.... He did have to retrieve a scroll from the Raikage in the land of lightning first, which would be about a weeks travel give or take. It wasn't urgent, he only had needed a reason to be in the land of lightning, and the Elementalist hideout is at the border of the land of lightning. So after his mission he would finally be able to visit Hikari. The thought alone made him excited to leave and finish the scroll retrieval mission as soon as he could. It was finally happening! He packet a few things and left first thing in the morning.
To say Hikari was overjoyed when she got the news was an understatement. She would finally see him again!
