Kakashi x Reader [English]

Chapter 30

"You did what?" (Y/n) asked, hurt, angry, and wanting to hear it from Kakashi.

"Leave for a moment, please" Kakashi told the two nurses.

They looked at him for a couple of seconds but did as they were told when they saw the seriousness in his eye. They bowed and left, and right when the door closed the atmosphere seemed to become even more tense.

"You couldn't keep your mouth shut..." Kakashi mumbled to Gai.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you wanted to lie to your girlfriend" Gai said with an apologetic look, feeling really apologetic that he had caused trouble.

"Yeah, neither did I" she answered like daggers.

"I just didn't tell you, that's not a lie" Kakashi answered, which just earned an angrier look from her.

"We wanted to ambush him" Gai began explaining like (Y/n) had asked him to "but he realized and we had a bit of a struggle to try and catch him"

(Y/n) felt her heart sunk at Gai's words, which she manifested in a deeper frown while Kakashi fled her gaze by looking at the floor.

"I can't believe you'd do that" she said, now looking at Kakashi and sounding truly hurt, which only hurt Kakashi as well "You knew how I felt about confronting him!" she said now louder, the anger taking over again "And you decided to go and take care of it by yourself? Just how selfish can you be, Kakashi?" she asked, once again the anger and sadness mixing, making him swallow.

"Can we talk elsewhere?" he said, almost faltering at the beginning. (Y/n) arched a brow, still with her arms crossed, and then followed his gaze to Gai. She didn't say anything and just exited the room, understanding that Kakashi preferred to talk about it privately "Here's fine" he said once they were far enough from the room, although they still were on the hallway But at least there wasn't anyone for the moment.

At his words (Y/n) turned around to look at him, crossing her arms again and squinting her eyes at him in a demanding, hurt, and angry look.

"I just wanted to protect you, okay?" he finally talked.

"Protect me?" she laughed bitterly "Do you truly believe I'm that weak? You think I'm useless, don't you" she added more hurt.

"No no, of course I don't think that you're weak (Y/n)" he hurried.

"Then why the fuck would you do this, if you knew perfectly well that I wanted to take care of it by myself!" she uncrossed her arms to gesture at him more enraged "This is my problem Kakashi! Mine!" she added, feeling her voice crack because of actually feeling inept at the thought of her not being the one to solve this.

"I-I'm sorry" Kakashi said, feeling his chest tighten at the sight of her being so hurt and bothered "I know you wanted to solve this, but... But I just couldn't risk you"

(Y/n) looked at him from the corner of her eyes, knowing where he came from but still feeling betrayed.

"Why?" she asked, now more relaxed although still hurt, sitting on one of the chairs on the hallway "Why don't you trust me enough to count on me on this? Again, this is my problem, not yours, not anyone else's. And you don't have the right to choose things that concern me so easily without even taking into account my opinion"

Kakashi pursed his lips together and crouched in front of (Y/n), resting his arms on both of her sides, hoping that she'd butter up by the closeness.

"I know, and I'm sorry" he repeated, his eye looking at her and truly showing remorse "After what happened with those guys, and what he's done to you... I just didn't want anything to happen to you again" he looked up at her with his puppy eye "What can I do, so that you can forgive me?"
