"The eyes that have seen blood and death cannot see the world in the usual manner. But let's try our best to get through this together"
They were childhood friends. He was resolved to protect her till the end. He has vowed to never get married. But...
It's been over 4 months since I was attacked by thugs. 4 months since I realized I was in love with Kakashi.
During this time, my thoughts travelled around him and recollected the significance of his presence in my life.
Day & night, he is all I think about. I couldn't wrap my head around the thought of not being with him.
I don't think he has the slightest idea of what's going on in my mind. When I was with him, all I could think was how to let him know about my feelings. Sometime I'd be so indulged in my thoughts that I didn't pay attention to what Kakashi was saying.
Kakashi seemed worried by this. He time and again asked if something was bothering me, I evaded it saying the attack still made me feel sick. He let it slide but he didn't seem very convinced.
And I know when he's not convinced, it would not be long before he finds out the real reason. So I have to hurry up.
I was resolved that I should let him know of my feelings before he comes to know of it by any other means. I tried to think of a way for this.
While I was thinking of the right moment to express my feelings, my mind went back to all the times when Kakashi was affectionate with me.
When I look back at them I feel I am falling even more for him. Perhaps, I missed his small acts of care and let them slide under 'he's my friend' bucket.
I remember this one time when I got cramp as I slipped when I went on a walk after it rained. I honestly hated being clumsy. But sometimes it just became annoying when I got myself to this situation just by doing something as mundane as going on a walk.
I managed to walk back and sat on the couch to relax my feet. Kakashi came to take me out for lunch that day. When he saw I had a bad cramp, he took me to the chair and gently massaged the swollen area. He even bought me lunch and stayed with me till the evening. I felt better a few hours later.

The other time when he took me out to see the first snowfall of the year, we walked around the village. It was a beautiful view to see the village covered in snow.
