"...we need to talk."

The silver haired male rose an eyebrow. "Well if you'd like I could drop by your office first thing Monday mor-"

"That won't be necessary. This is a personal matter." The Uchiha kept an unreadable expression.

Kakashi was taken aback for a second before giving Itachi a closed-eye smile. "Alright. What is it?"

Itachi looked at his former sensei and tried to be as calm as he could be about the sensitive topic at hand.

Did he have any business meddling into (y/n)'s personal affairs? Not at all. Could he help it? Of course not. There were many reasons why he hadn't completely lost his cool, aside from the obvious that he had his family's name to uphold; but he also respected the man in front of him, he wasn't just his teacher after all. The two had been on the field together when Itachi was in the ANBU, they had been partners and worked very well together despite their age and experience difference.

Kakashi on the other hand, had no idea why his former student was waiting for him. Ever since he had taken over as Chief, they rarely saw each other except for when he would drop in to see the recruits progress. He respected him as well, Itachi was his best student till this day and one of the greatest partners he ever had. He was fast, resourceful, intelligent, and proactive.

"How close are you to (y/n)?" Itachi asked bluntly.

Kakashi opened his eyes, now his expression unreadable. "Pardon?"

"How close are you to (y/n) Hyuga?" Itachi asked again keeping his onyx eyes on the man in front of him.

"She's a friend." Kakashi answered in a bored tone.

Itachi placed his hands in his pockets and took a step toward Kakashi. "Seems she's more than a friend."

Kakashi mimicked the younger males' actions, also taking a step closer. The lights in the bar behind them turned off, replaced by fluorescent lighting; causing both men's features to appear much more dangerous.

"You sound sure of yourself." Kakashi asked in the same bored tone.

"I'm not that's why I'm asking you."

Kakashi smirked and rubbed his chin. "If you're here expecting me to bad mouth her because she's a Hyuga I'm sorry to tell you, you're wasting your time."

"I would never think about hurting (y/n), especially not through slander."

Placing his hand back in his pockets, he gave a lazy shrug. "So then why not ask what you really want to know Itachi."

Itachi closed his eyes before speaking again. It wasn't that he was afraid of Kakashi, no, he was afraid of Kakashi confirming his brother's suspicions. Especially because what power would Itachi have after finding out the truth? He didn't even know why he was doing this. He couldn't stop them, he had no right to especially with a fiancé. But his head and heart were going to war with each other and he couldn't stop himself, he was already in this deep, no turning back now.

"Do you have relationship with her?" Itachi asked slowly.

"Yes, she's a friend."

Itachi was starting to get annoyed with the man in front of him, this is where him and Kakashi differed and budded heads a lot. Itachi was direct while Kakashi took his time.
