Tsunade : nioka.

Nioka : tsunade-sama.

Tsunade seats down at the counter " how's my tabs ? "

Nioka : still piling up as usual.

Tsunade puts a small little bag of coins  on the counter" this is for jiraiya's tabs. "

Nioka ; no need . I want to keep his tabs. It's my memory of that hentai for me.

Tsunade : I see you're doing better.

Nioka takes out a few bottles of sake " I guess. "

Tsunade : gomen. I knew he was going for certain death.

Nioka : .... I don't want to hear it. He... Also came to clear his tabs before he left.

Tsunade : I see.

Kakashi wasn't home. He was out doing missions again. She reached to an empty home.

She walked to the kitchen upper cupboards and took out alcohol " since when did I start to feel this lonely ? " She pops the cork open and sit against the kitchen lower cupboards and starts to drink.

.
The door clicks open. Kakashi was home from his mission. He came back earlier than expected and quietly so as not to disturb the sleeping nioka .

He proceeded to the kitchen as he was hungry. That's when he saw a sleeping her on the kitchen floor. He goes over to carry her to bed. But he spots a few bottles of alcohol on the floor . He  picks the bottles of alcohol up and sighs. He takes them up and throws them in the bin. He then carries her up in his arms and walked to the bedroom.

He placed her down and strokes her hair " what happened ? Are you still sad ? "

The next morning she woke up, she went to take a shower. She came out of the showers and headed towards the living room. That's when she spotted him making breakfast " kakashi... You're back. "

Kakashi: um. Are you ok.

She nods " um... I guess. " She proceeded to the door.

Kakashi: where are you going ?

Nioka : work.

He goes to her and pulled onto her wrist " don't go. I'm home. Spent time with me. " She turns around and looks at him .

Kakashi ; I want to know what happened to you. I saw you drink yourself to sleep last night when I came back.

Nioka : you weren't supposed to come home this early...

Kakashi: but I am, now.

Nioka : you don't... Blame me ? Not angry at me ?

Kakashi: for what ?

Her tears fell and she hugs him " kakashi. I'm so lonely. Can you not go for anymore missions ? " He squeezed her back " nioka. "

Nioka : can't ?

He squeezed her back harder with no response.
