"So..." Sakura started quietly, as her bright green eyes roamed over the running surface of the river below. "...you wanted to talk to me Kakashi-sensei?"
He flinched, mentally of course. In times like these, it helped that he had perfected the look of calm aloofness to an art... Well, not that is was helping him now. He didn't know where the hell he should put his hands. Or if he should slouch as usual, or stand straight. Why wasn't this as easy as he read in the books? Damn it.
"You can call me just Kakashi, you know. I'm not your sensei anymore." He managed to keep a levelled voice, and gave his trademark crinkled eye smile. At least his vocal capabilities were intact.
She looked up at him, green eyes curious, with the softest tilt of head.
"Oh!" Her eyes lowered, as she smiled. Her head rolled softly to face the river again. "Ok..." Her smile was wider, but coy, and for the life of him, he could swear he had never seen anything so beautiful. There goes his perfect speech pattern... "...Just Kakashi."
Her voice had a joking tone that wasn't lost to him, as she peeked up to his face again. And his hand came to set on the back of his head as he shared her soft laughter.
