I walked into the hospital room to visit Kakashi, holding a few things from people who knew he was in the hospital in the morning, I felt bad that I couldn't visit him all day due to the patients so I brought him some ramen.
"Kakashi..?" I said walking in. I looked at him with his head in his hands, breathing heavily. "Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey. Breathe." I said as I sat down beside him. Hugging him tightly.
I felt his tears stain my white coat as I held him.
I sighed whispering to him.
"You're alright." I started humming, seeing if it would calm him down.
"2 am and she calls me cause I'm still awake, can you help me unravel my latest mistake. "I don't love him, winter just wasn't my season.""
I kept singing until he calmed down.
"Are you better?" I asked. Tucking my short hair behind my ear.
He nodded his head. I sighed holding his hand before reaching over to the table to get him the card team 7 gave him.
"Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke made this for you." I said, he smiled softly reading the letter.
"I'm sorry I couldn't visit you earlier. I brought dinner." I smiled.
"Thank you. Who's been temporary hokage?" He asked.
"Uh, Tsuna and I spilt the work. I do the paperwork while she handles the other things." I said opening the takeout container. "How are your therapy sessions? Are they helping?" I said handing him a bowl.
"I think so. I need to get back to work soon."
"You should be discharged soon. I've been moving our things into the compound so everything will be ready and homey when you leave the hospital."
I looked at his bandages and furrowed my brows, they should've been changed hours ago.
"When was the last someone came in and changed your bandages?"
"I'm not sure, not many nurses came in today." I scoffed and stood up going to the cupboards to get some tape and gauze.
"I'll change them." I sighed, carefully unwrapping his wounds.
I traced over the scars that formed.
"I was being stubborn, not asking for help. I'm fine, really." Kakashi said.
"No.. you were under pressure, too much pressure.. and you were sad and depressed and stressed. I should've known, I should've stepped in and helped," I looked up at him with a sad smile. "I'm sorry, Kakashi."
His eyes softened.
"I'm sorry too."
