itachi/kakashi: choose me

3:always there for you.

kakashi pov:

She was just sitting there with her legs curled up. It was like the 1st time when I came to see her. It was her troubled posture. Whenever she had something on her mind she would keep thinking of and couldn't get her mind off she would sit like that.  I approached her and tapped her on her shoulder.

She bend over her neck to see who it was. And when she realized it was me she had a shock and blushed. It was really cute of her.

kakashi:yo.

tsuki: why are you here?

kakashi : you are weird.

tsuki:what?

I took a seat beside her. 'when I first met you I thought you were an anti-social like me. But it turns out you're not. Bubbly and cute if one knows you better.'

tsuki: what's the point of telling me all this? Are you going to say something like, I like you because of that. Is that so? Just give it up on me.

kakashi: that's not my point. You are not the type that keeps things in your heart. So tell me what's bothering you?

tsuki:kakashi...even if I want, I won't choose you to tell it to.

itachi came over, 'than how about me?'

tsuki: just..don't force me. I won't tell anybody.

tsuki pov:

I don't wish to hurt either of them. If I tell them, it might hurt them so much that I will lose them even as friends.Or...maybe I should just do that. I don't know...I am confused...

I took a last glance at both of them and body flickered away.

itachi pov:

I managed to find her again sitting on the tree.

tsuki: I know you are there. I have senses of a wolf.

itachi:you zone out sometimes and I manage to scare you.

tsuki: ha ha ha. Not in the mood itachi. I'm not saying a thing.

itachi: I'm not here to ask a thing.I am just here to sit here with you.

I sat down leaning against the tree she was sitting on. I looked up to her from this angle. The little sunlight that peeped through the shade of the leaves shone on her. It made her black hair glitter a little. She was out of my reach. I couldn't touch her. If I tried she would fly away. All I can do is to wait by her side.

tsuki:you aren't going to sit there forever are you?

itachi: if you promise never to ignore me again.

tsuki:tsk. Both of you . Just...leave me alone.

I looked around in the shades and realised that kakashi had too been here all the time. He was on the tree. I was too captured in looking after tsuki. Kei came to my side, 'I understand you are worried for her but its has been one day. Go back and rest. Its her wish too.'

I looked up to her and I saw her looking to me with a sad face.

kakashi pov:

Rei came to me and spoke, 'leave. Its not going to do a thing for you to be here.'

I was worried for her but when I looked to her ,she seemed tired. Than I thought she's probably not going off because itachi and me watching her.

Always acting tough. I don't blame her, the situation has suddenly become so awkward for the three of us.

tsuki pov:

'wait.' I heard a voice. This person was close right behind me judging from the volume. I turned around and saw itachi and kakashi behind standing from a distance.

tsuki:what...? I thought...

Suddenly he hugged me close interrupting my speech.

itachi:I am worried for you more than ever. I know you work alone, but knowing kakashi wants you too ,my heart just races faster. Everytime I think that someone or something is going to get you, I become afraid. If you are lost from my sight...I...only can be sad and than get on with my life.

tsuki: itachi... don't be like that. I don't know how to answer you guys.

itachi: I am not asking you to answer. I just want you to know I am here for you forever.

tsuki:itachi...

I pushed him away gently and turned away. My heart hurts...I cried silently as tears flowed down my eyes. I felt that I was hurting him.

kakashi pov: 

I admitted that I didn't like it seeing itachi hugging tsuki. I was jealous,angry. But these thoughts just pass me by like a flash when I saw tsuki leaving for the big gate. I body flickered in front of her to block her way.

tsuki:kakashi...?

She faced away from me, it was like she didn't want to see me.

kakashi: don't look away. Answer my questions.

tsuki pov:

He asked with a gentle tone.

tsuki:what question?

kakashi: Do you need a partner for your mission?

tsuki: no...you know I never need a partner.

 kakashi: Just...want to let you know you can always ask me for help.

I didn't smile at him. I didn't want him to get the wrong idea. I knew that hurt him...because it did to me too. Hurting the both of them like that...I don't like it at all.
