I'm posting a KakaSaku one-shot written by
jade_sabre_301 that was inspired by that pic I drew of Kakashi with the pink mask.
Here's a new colored drawing, just for this...
Now, on with
jade_sabre_301's story...
*~♥~*~♥~*~♥~*~♥~*~♥~*
Kakashi thought he had a pretty good grasp of Sakura, his former pupil and current...well, he couldn't exactly describe what she was to him, but there was something, and they both knew it, and that would suffice for now. He knew she was smart and beautiful and still young and therefore capable of illogical acts from time to time, but she was generally a mature, professional young woman.
But as she stood before him, beaming, he realized he had forgotten the number one rule of Sakura: sometimes she was just batshit crazy.
"It's Valentine's Day, Kakashi-sensei!" she said brightly, holding out some sort of...pink...thing...that hung limply in her hands, staring at him with its pepto shade already turning his stomach.
"Uh..." he said.
"A mask! I thought you should wear pink, in order to...you know...get into the spirit of things!"
Kakashi stared at her out of one eye, searching those green depths for the glint of calculating cruelty he knew had to be lurking there. She smiled back with perfect innocence, which of course meant she knew exactly what she was doing.
"A mask," he repeated, dragging the word out as he gingerly accepted the gift.
She nodded, and then turned her head when she thought she heard someone calling her name--ventriloquy was one of those skills he didn't advertise, but often found useful--and when she turned back the pink mask was firmly in place.
She stared at it, and Kakashi, not knowing how ridiculous he looked (but having a pretty fair guess), felt an almost irresistable urge to squirm under her critical gaze. "What?"
Her face crumpled. "It looks awful!" she wailed, burying her face in her hands.
"Sakura--" Kakashi said, reaching forward and grabbing her arms.
She looked up and he caught the briefest glint of a predatory smile before she said, "Well, it'll just have to come off." And before he could stop her, she had grabbed the mask off his face and planted a long, satisfying kiss to his lips.
"Scheming--ulterior motives--can't trust," he managed, unable (and honestly unwilling) to extricate himself from her grasp.
"Happy Valentine's Day," she said in the same sort of mumbled tone. "Now shut up and kiss me."
So he did.

Happy Valentine's/Singles' Appreciation Day, everyone! ^_^
