Low Pressure (Kakashi x Reader x Itachi)

Ch. 14- Decision (Kakashi)

Same time as the last chapter

3rd Person POV

Kakashi had his eyes closed as the warm water hit his back in the shower. He had been thinking about (Name), how his chances of being with you were looking very slim because of his idiotic actions. It reminded him of the time he fought Obito when he found out Rin had been cheating on him with his best friend. Kakashi nearly killed Obito, and he felt guilty then as he did now remembering Itachi's face as they fought.

"I ruined everything again..." Kakashi sighed as he turned off the shower and grabbed a towel to dry himself off. He put on his boxers and gray sweatpants as he made his way towards the bathroom mirror. He looked at himself as he paused in the middle of drying his face with the towel. Kakashi sighed as he looked at the cuts and bruises he had from the fight that appeared to be nearly healed.

"I love her... yet I feel like I lost her..." then suddenly he heard a knock on his door. He sighed and stayed silent because the last thing he wanted was visitors. Then the knocking turned into banging.

"Oi!! Kakashi!!! I know you're in there!!! Stop being depressed and open the door before I bust this door down!!" Kakashi sweatdropped as he realized it was none other than Obito. Kakashi put on a shirt and made his way to his door. He unlocked it but as he was about the open it, Obito rushes his way inside followed by Rin.

"Sure, please invite yourself in." Kakashi said in a sarcastic tone. Obito rolled his eyes as he watched Kakashi close the door. Rin was shifting nervously beside Obito.

"What do you guys want? Can't a guy relax in his room in peace?"

"Not if you're gonna be depressed your not! We're gonna support you!" Obito said with a grin. Rin sighed and approached Kakashi.

"We just want to help you. I know... in the past (Name) has helped you out in these types of situations, but she's not here now so we'll step in until you feel better." Rin said with a smile as Kakashi was getting slightly irritated.

"Like you would know how I feel in this type of situation." Rin's smile slowly faded as she backed away. A tick mark appeared on Obito's forehead as he tackled Kakashi and punched him in the face.

"Obito! Stop get off of him!" Rin said as she pushed Obito off of Kakashi who stayed on the floor, looking up to the ceiling.

"We're just trying to help Kakashi! You don't need to insult Rin because of what happened! Leave it in the past!" Obito said while Rin was trying to calm him down. They both stopped and looked at Kakashi who just sighed and covered his face.

"Forgive me... I just don't wanna lose her... Everything is slowly tearing apart and I don't know how to fix it... She's gonna end up choosing Itachi and then I'll have to put on another smile just so she doesn't have to worry about me. I can't do that again... If it was hard to get over Rin then, it's damn near impossible to get over (Name)." Kakashi said as he sat up and had a depressing aura surround him. Rin and Obito sat down across from him.

"Look Kakashi, the real reason I cheated on you was because I knew you actually loved (Name). It's just at the time you were convinced it was love for me when it was supposed to be meant for her. Every day I felt so jealous of how you looked at her with so much love when you didn't give me that same treatment. I felt alone and Obito comforted me. As soon as I noticed the way Obito looked at me, his gaze filled with love and care just for me that I longed in you, I knew I wanted to be with Obito. But that was-"

"The same moment I walked in on you two kissing after school near the stairwell..." Rin looked down at her knees. She knew when that moment occurred and she realized who she truly wanted to be with that she did not want to tell Kakashi in the way he found out in order to set him free.
