(Discontinued)Two Hearts (Kakashi x Iruka re-make)

chapter seventeen. I Failed

(Kakashi's point of view)
(2 years later)

I sat down at the table with my head in my hands, he was really gone...

I failed to protect him...

I promised I would keep him safe to his parents graves and now his gone...

I failed to protect the only person who loved me and stayed by me for so long,

I could feel the tears running down my face and falling onto the table, I could never love again...

He was my only lover and it would stay that way...

I couldn't risk losing more people,

Soon everything went blurry from my crying and then...

I woke up, sitting up in bed shaking and panting while tears streamed down my face. I heard Iruka's voice next to me, though I couldn't hear what he was saying I pulled him into a hug, he went silent after that and hugged me back trying to calm me down,

Soon I was calm and Iruka pulled away, laying me on the bed and asking "bad dream again?" I groaned and said "yeah...this one was bad,", Iruka knew I had nightmares sometimes and was always there to help me calm down, at this point he knew when a nightmare was about to come,

Iruka laid down and cuddled up to me witch I accepted, "do you want to talk about it?" "Not really," "what was the gist of it?" "it...was about...losing you...again,"

I felt Iruka pull me in closer as he kissed my cheek, "don't worry, i'm not going anywhere and I can promise you that,"
