scared of the stars

Chapter 11 - Kakashi

«I don't understand the problem with just staying at home,» Kakashi argued, dragging the duvet further up. He was reading a book (a very good one actually) but Obito wanted them to go outside. He had no idea why he was so demanding right now, and would much rather stay at home, read, and drink some hot chocolate.

Kakashi also wanted to solve the mystery on whether Obito cared about smut or not.

«Staying inside won't be fun. We should go outside.» Obito scratched his cheek and waited two seconds, then widened his eyes as if he had gotten the greatest idea in existence. «Maybe Sakura's house! I am sure she would love for us to visit. Don't you think so too? Now leave that damn book and let's go.»

Obito was not the best actor. He had always been a direct person and was never good at keeping secrets.

«Or you could get back into the bed and try to read a book or two. I have quite the collection I think you'd enjoy.» Kakashi said and moved his eyes back to the page. He had read that one plenty of times and was looking forward to what he knew was coming.

«Kakashi,» Obito said and the white-haired man looked up. Obito had a deadpan expression, looking disappointed.

«I can't read those. You would have to read them out to me.»

Kakashi raised a brow and looked at him confused. «What are you talking- oh...»

Ohhh.

If you can't see, you can't read.

Obito didn't wait for his response and left the room instead. Kakashi was about to stand up and go apologies but stopped when he heard Obito laugh from the room next door. A wave of relief flew through him and he sighed.

Obito would have to go on without knowing about the glory the Icha Icha series brought on because Kakashi sure as hell wouldn't read those lines out loud.

--------------------------

Kakashi was royally confused, standing in front of a mirror and looking at himself. When Obito had suggested for them to go to Sakura's house he hadn't thought they would dress nicely. It wasn't as if Sakura had anything against the normal clothes they wore.

Did she?

He wore a white shirt and a loose blue tie, something he didn't even know he had until Obito had gone through his wardrobe and asked Kakashi what they were. When Kakashi explained and said it was a white shirt and a tie, he looked extremely pleased and told him to wear it.

Kakashi thought maybe they had belonged to his father once. He wasn't sure but had a distinct memory of his father coming home once wearing it.

Something loud banged against the wall in the room next door, making Kakashi look toward the open door.

«You okay out there?» He asked and readjusted his tie, not happy with how it hung. He should probably put on some pants as well.

«Yeah, sorry! I tripped over... a camera? Is this a wig?» Obito said from the room next door and Kakashi wanted to bang his head against the wall.

«It's a long story. Please don't ask.» He replied and went to get some pants.

«I honestly don't want to know.» He heard his roommate say.

Kakashi put on a pair of pants, his headband, then covered up the lower side of his face.

His hair was a mess, but it usually was, so he saw no need in fixing it. Obito eventually came back, frowning.
