You lied awake in bed. Kakashi was sleeping soundly beside you, the regeneration of his burnt skin having taken all his energy.

Nothing seemed real. You had gone from the hospital to making a deal with the devil to.... whatever this was. You feel butterflies erupt in your stomach as Kakashi's arm rolls onto your stomach and he pulls you closer.

What would the future hold for you? For you both? Could you marry a vampire? How could you continue your every day life now? You had a million questions running through your head.

"Can't sleep?"

A deep voice startles you out of your thoughts and you flinch. "I told you to stop doing that!" You whisper furiously.

"Force of habit- hey I can see you rolling your eyes you know"

A laugh escapes your lips as you fidget with the hem of your shirt sleeve.

"Something on your mind?"

"I guess you could say that"

He moves his arm away opting to instead use it to prop himself up and stares at you expectantly.

Feeling yourself blush under his steady gaze you take a deep breathe.
"I'm just.. not sure where to go after this. Are more demons coming to get me? Are you going to have to fight them? What if you get hurt too bad? What am i supposed to tell Kiba? What about my job? What am I supposed to tell anyone? I mean it's not like-"

You're silenced by the press of thin lips to yours. It's different from the previous times which were spurned on by adrenaline and blood-fever. He isn't commanding or over powering, he seems to simply want to comfort you.

You let yourself melt into the kiss and feel cold hands go up into your hair. You grasp weakly at his pant legs. Just when you seem to be running out of air he pulls back.

"To be honest I don't know what to do either. I've never been with a human. Or anyone for that matter"

Your hands rise from his thighs and go to cup his jaw which you place light kisses along.

"Oh? Kakashi the big scary ill kill you in 10 seconds and rip you limb from limb is afraid of love?"

You feel his adam's apple bob up and down and you take that as your cue to look up and to your surprise both of his eyes are open.

"No fancy words? No comeback?"

He simply stares at you. Then his swirling eye closes slowly and he sighs.

"you're full of surprises (y/n) not many people would be so naive to say something like that"

"What, the truth?"

"No, blind assumptions. I've been alive for 600 years. I've seen more wars, death, and destruction than I could ever reconcile. Everyone I have ever harbored feelings for has either died horribly or withered away into dust. Life can be cruel to immortals like that"

"I'm sorry"

He shifts and sits up on the edge of the bed, staring at the blank wall across from him.

"I can see the death of every soul this eye has seen. They're playing endlessly. A reminder of how I should have been stronger"

In the moonlight you can see the scars that criss cross his back. The jagged lines marking the deformation and reformation of his spine due to his true form. Stab wounds? Scratch marks? Swords? Gunshots? You can only guess at what the rest they were made by.

You scoot a little closer and reach out to place your palm on the center of the largest one and begin tracing along it. He stills.

As your hands wander from each and every mark, he begins shaking.

"It's true I don't know much about vampires, where you came from, what you've done, what you think you should have"

You pull at his shoulders and he lets you guide him back onto the sheets, his head falling softly into your lap. You wipe away the tears that had gathered.

"All I know is that you saved my life, and that's all that matters to me. Not what you've done before"

You plant a soft kiss on his forehead, and then on his cursed eye forcing it closed.

"You've never been with a human, I've obviously never been with a vampire. It's a new world for both of us"

He stares up at you as you play with his hair.

"Isn't that what matters?"

In a whirlwind of motion you find yourself lying flat on your back. Kakashi is straddling your waist. The tears are still slowly falling, splashing onto your neck.

He's staring at the space beside your head, eyes unfocused.

"Kakashi"
The word seems to snap him out of his trance and he kisses you with bruising force. You let your shirt be lifted up and over your head, only letting go of each other for a split second.

Your legs slide up and connect around his form. He breaks the kiss to trail down your neck and towards your chest.
"You're right"

You make eye contact and gulp at the fire you see behind his eyes.

"It's a new world and I intend to make it mine"
