"So you're tellin' me, that babies don't come from birds?" Naruto said in disbelief. "But fro---!"
Sakura and Naruto's conversation was cut short when the door made a small pounding sound. Sasuke's eyes darted up, as Tazuna and Inari raced to the door.
"Kakashi!" Inari exclaimed as he turned around. "Hey, Naruto! It's your Sensei!"
"Really?!" Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke all stood up and scrambled to the doors. "Sensei!"
Kakashi was attacked by Naruto and Sakura by intimidating jump hugs. Kakashi smiled as the two kids squeezed him even harder. Even Sasuke gave a small smirk.
"Okay, easy there, Naruto." Kakashi managed to pry them off. "You too, Sakura."
Sakura sniffled, "K-Kakashi Sensei..I'm so glad you're alive."
"Yeah! We were so worried about you!" Naruto added, sounding scared.
"We thought you were dead..." Sasuke said, without emotion.
"What happened?" Tazuna asked.
Inari nodded. "Tell us everything!"
Eventually, Kakashi sat down at the table and told them little parts of the story, of course not mentioning the fact that he lived in a woman's house for a few days.
"What about that lady?" Naruto asked. "The one who you said was your 'friend'?"
"Well, you see---!" Kakashi started, unsure what to say. He felt all of their suspicious eyes on him, not helping with his sudden nerves.
Tazuna cleared his throat. "I think what matters most is that your sensei is back in one piece. We should leave it at that for now. Inari, take them all outside and go play."
"We're not kids, you old geezer..." Naruto muttered under his breath, as he, Sasuke, Sakura, and Inari headed out.

The next day, Team Seven finally departed the Land of Waves and returned to the Leaf Village. Everybody was so relieved that they all made it home safe and sound, despite Kakashi's minor injuries.
It was dark, so Kakashi offered to walk all the children home, just to be safe. He first dropped Sakura off, then Sasuke and finally Naruto. Kakashi decided to head home. He walked over the small bridge towards his house, looking into the waters below.
Realizing he hadn't read at all since yesterday, he reached into his pocket normally, to take out his Make-Out Paradise novel, when he suddenly froze. He had left one volume of his book at her house on the nightstand. Kakashi groaned out loud, banging his fist on the wooden bridge. Just as he turned back, he saw another reflection in the water.
