Madara

"How did your meeting go yesterday"? My husband Hashirama asked lying on our bed as I was busy getting dressed for work. "Good, he's young but I truly think he'll be able to handle it".

"Mhm, anything else"? "Ok he does give off a somewhat mysterious aura but his background checks out. I don't believe taking a chance on him will be detrimental". "Has Izuna talked with him"? "He has, they had a surprise meeting after he arrived home".

"Of course they did". He said smiling. I sprayed on Cologne and made my way over pecking his lips. "You worry yourself too much doctor". Since hearing about him Hashirama's been on edge. The name Kakashi Hatake sounded familiar to him but he doesn't know why. "I can't help it, I don't take any chances when it comes to you or our kids". 

"I know". I kissed him. "And I appreciate you so much for it". "Your lunch is already packed on the kitchen island along with your coffee". "Thank you, I'll call you on my break". I kissed him one last time before heading out.

Kakashi

Iruka: Did you forget something?

Me: Sorry, when I arrived home I received a video call from Izuna Uchiha. He wanted to do a surprise interview with me. I'm guessing so he could get a read for me as well.

Iruka: Makes sense, so what are the results?

Me: Madara Uchiha is going to train me personally until his son Obito Uchiha takes over which will be soon according to him.

Iruka: Nice!

Me: I'm just glad someone finally decided to take a chance on me. I don't plan on letting Madara or Obito down.

Iruka: You worry too much you'll do just fine

Me: I'd rather be over-prepared and triple-check all of my boxes than be underprepared and make a mistake that could set me back for Kami knows how long.

Iruka: Just try to make new friends.

Me: I don't need friends

"Morning Kakashi, ready for your first day"? Kazumi the receptionist asked as I made my way through the front glass doors. I nodded my head, made my way to the elevator, and pressed the tenth-floor button, a few seconds later the doors slid open and I made my way straight to Mr. Uchiha's door and knocked.

"Kakashi, right on time". He said as I made my way inside. "Thank you, sir, is there anything you need me to start on"? "I love the enthusiasm but first come with me". I nodded as he stood up and walked out. I said nothing as he showed me around his office building.

We walked through the office corridors where I saw everyone hard at work on designs on their computers, next was the lounge room where there were soft couches, bean bag chairs, a tv on the wall, a very expensive looking espresso machine, smack area, and even a kitchen. 

"This is where everyone mostly comes during their breaks, your free to go out for lunch but the fridge is packed full of food you can cook and eat in an hour if you want".

I nodded and we walked off.

The next stop we went to was the rooftop gym. "You can also come up here before your shift or during your break if you don't have enough time to head to the gym in town". "I'll consider it". He smiled and continued our tour.

I was a little taken aback by the indoor swimming pool they had but didn't say anything, apparently, it was only for office parties. After the tour was over he took me back to his office where a long extra desk was now sitting across from his. Just like his it was made out of black oak and was in the form of an incomplete square and my laptop was placed next to the computer that was already set up.

"They finished faster than I expected".

"Sir"?

"You'll be working in this office alongside my son". He gestured towards the desk. I sat down in the computer chair and started working right away. He came stand beside me and watched and I had to try my hardest not to stiffen up next to him.

"Um excuse me"? I looked over towards the door and saw one of the female designers Rin Nohara standing in the door. "Mr. Uchiha isn't here, you can come back tomorrow and ask him your question". Mr. Uchiha had left earlier wanting to be in time for dinner with his husband.

"Oh no, I was actually looking for you". I said nothing as I packed up for the day. "So sometimes after work a few of us head to the bar to hang out for a while, since your new we thought you might want to join". I simply shook my head, stood up, walked out, got in my car, and drove straight home.

Once there I went change into a long sleeve dark blue shirt with matching sweatpants. Without even thinking about it I made my way to his picture that was sitting on its special nightstand with two vanilla-scented candles on each side. I lit them and kneeled.

"Hey dad, so today was my first official day at Uchiha Tech. I really like it there, the work is easy and Mr. Uchiha doesn't need that many things for me to get, just a few papers here and there and the occasional coffee. He always asks if I'm able to leave my design for a few minutes before asking though.

I know I'm his employee but it feels like he actually cares about his workers, I think I got lucky with this one. It makes the other denied offers worth it. The only problem I can see for myself are my co-workers, they offered me to go out with them so I can get to know them but I declined.

I don't see the point in it and Iruka so far is the closest thing I have to being a friend. It's not anything personal I just can't bring myself to do it...........you know why......I know Obito Uchiha will be starting soon I just hope working with him will be as easy as working with his father".
