This isn't over



There is a saying that time passes by very quickly whenever you enjoy yourself, but whenever you wait for something to finally happen time passes by very slowly. Over the past six years, Kakashi had to experience the later. Although it had been only six years, those years seemed like six decades to him. He had left Konoha in order to forget about that six-year-old girl there, who reminded him so much of his late girlfriend. Actually Minato had confirmed his suspicions and one day before he had left his hometown he had heard about little Sakura being his late girlfriend. However, she was his late girlfriend without her memories, so she was not his late girlfriend, which did not hinder him to be reminded of his Sakura whenever he had seen that little girl. And even after six years, this topic was still too confusing for him to think of it for too long.

In order to avoid thinking about her, Kakashi had been reading Jiraya's latest novel - from his Icha Icha series - but not even his favorite book could prevent those annoying butterflies in his stomach from flying around.

The Copy Ninja from Konoha was now on his way back to his hometown from that special long-term mission he had asked of the Hokage. It really had been an easy mission. Kakashi had had to go to Amegakure and spy on a certain landlord who had been suspected to be a spy himself, who had been sent by Kimigakure in order to influence Amegakure's trading with Konoha. All Kakashi had to write in his mission report now was, I came, I saw, I conquered. However, considering the amount of time he had needed to complete this mission, it could raise several questions from other Jonin. Kakashi could already picture a certain brown haired Jonin with a toothpick ridiculing him for taking so much time in order to accomplish such an easy sounding mission.

The Copy Ninja sighed heavily looking up from his book and saw those familiar gates, which he had not seen for six years.

Home sweet home, he thought.

With a deep breath, he closed the novel, put it back into his pouch, and quickened his pace a little. He did not stop at the gates, but only greeted Izumo and Kotetsu, when he walked by those two at the Konoha entrance. His feet took him to the Hokage tower, where he had left Minato, Naruto, and Sakura six years ago.



"You are leaving?" Sakura asked bewildered. "But you - you are supposed to look after me."

Her expression was difficult to read. She could be angry, sulking or … sad.

Kakashi kneeled down next to her and looked her in the eyes with a soft expression on his face. "I know, but I have to go on a very important mission and that mission will last quite a while. That's why you will be staying at Naruto's place until your parents get back from their mission," he ruffled her hair softly.

He had seen her bite her lower lip before she looked to the ground hiding her face with her bangs. Uncertain of what to say Kakashi looked up to the Hokage, who was staying next to Sakura. Minato caught Kakashi's help seeking gaze, but shrugged as if he wanted to say,
you don't actually believe that I would help you with that, do you?

The Copy Ninja rolled his eyes as if he had heard Minato's thoughts. Once he heard quiet sniffs, Kakashi looked to Sakura again with a shocked expression. He had made her cry.

"Hey, little princess," he tried to smooth her while lifting her chin. "What's the matter?"

The tears, which rolled over her cheeks, seemed too big coming from her eyes. Those tears tore at his heart like the fateful incident had six years ago.

Sakura shook her head and flung herself at the Copy Ninja's chest sobbing uncontrollably. Kakashi couldn't bear the thought of leaving her in Konoha crying, but he had no other option. Putting his arms around her small body, he pressed his lips on top of her head and whispered quietly, so that she was the only one who could understand him.

"I'll miss you, Sakura."



It had hurt very much to leave her that day. And to know that it was a very egoistical reason, which had driven him to act as he had acted, only increased his guilty conscience. Just because Kakashi had not wanted to be reminded of his late girlfriend, he had made that little girl cry.

Shaking his head in order to get rid of his thoughts he finally decided to enter the Hokage tower. He made his way to the Hokage's office and knocked.

"Come in," a familiar voice said.

Entering the office Kakashi was welcomed by a beaming smile from his former teacher, which made it difficult for the Copy Ninja not to return the smile.

"Long time no see, Hokage-sama," Kakashi greeted stepping closer to the familiar desk.

"Kakashi," Minato exclaimed and walked around the desk.

Kakashi expected his former teacher to hug him, but when the Hokage grabbed him by his shoulders, the Copy Ninja looked a little confused.

"Kakashi, I am so glad you made it in time!" Minato's expression could be described as pleased.

In time? For what? Kakashi thought bewildered.

"You won't believe what happened a couple of years ago, Kakashi. But you do have to believe it, since I am going to kick your ass if you don't, so take a seat already, and listen!" Minato practically shoved his former student into the chair in front of the desk.

Even before Kakashi could ask, what was going on Minato had already continued.

"Where should I begin?" he questioned himself pacing around behind Kakashi so that the silver haired man had to turn his head quite a bit. "Okay, two years after your departure, Iruka began to teach the academy class how to use their chakra. One week passed and nothing happened. After eight days of practicing to use and control their chakra one girl managed to accomplish the task, but instead of being joyful that she managed to accomplish it, she stormed right out the classroom and came straight to me."

Kakashi did not know what the Hokage tried to tell him and when he was about to open his mouth, he was silenced by his former teacher.

"Without even knocking she simply entered and asked 'Where the hell is he, Minato-sensei?' She did not even greet me as she normally did. And her shyness had turned into a forwardness, which can be very charming, but at that moment, it was simply horrifying. When I asked her what she had meant, she simply jumped onto my desk and threatened me," Minato had to laugh at the memory. "Once she scared the hell out of me, I told her everything. And let me tell you that she was more than angry to hear that you would not be back for another four years. When she muttered something about men being impatient, I asked what had been wrong with her. And guess what she answered," the Hokage looked at Kakashi waiting for him to answer.

Still not knowing what Minato was talking about, Kakashi simply shrugged and waited for Minato to go on.

"She said, what's wrong with me? After eight years I finally remembered everything and when I want to tell Kakashi I found out that he wasn't coming back for another four years! I think you should ask Kakashi what was wrong with him, when he gets back! And I swear that I will chop your heads off - yours and Kakashi's too- if he is not here in time to be assigned as team seven's teacher! Then she stormed out of my office. Do you know now who I am talking about?" Minato asked smiling at his former student.

Kakashi was stunned by the Hokage. Once it had finally sunk in, the Copy Ninja did not know what to say anymore. There were so many thoughts going through his mind right in that moment and each single thoughts was about the girl he had left behind six years ago. Now that he had returned, he might have returned to his girlfriend. Sakura who had gotten her memories, which he thought she had lost forever, back.

Since Kakashi did not seem to be able to talk anymore, Minato added in a joyful voice.

"As I told you before you got back here right in time. If you don't mind to go to the academy now and meet your own team," the Hokage waved to the door as a subtle hint to leave his office. "They have already been waiting for you for four hours."

Kakashi's lips twitched a little bit at this comment. "How did you know I was coming back today?"

"I didn't. I intended to make them wait until evening before sending them home," Minato grinned evilly. "Sakura would have definitely deserved it for being that rude to me and Naruto would have deserved it, too, for not eating his breakfast and Sasuke… I think he would have deserved it, too, for something he had done."

Suddenly Kakashi's light smile disappeared.

"I hope you didn't lie to me, Hokage-sama," the Copy Ninja said with a low voice.

The Hokage had to blink a few times surprised that Kakashi would actually think that he had made everything up.

"Go and see for yourself. She is at the academy," Minato told him with a cheeky grin.

Ever so slowly, Kakashi got up from his chair and turned around completely to face the Hokage. Looking him in the eyes, he knew that he had not lied to him. It was true. Everything he had told him was true! Kakashi still could not believe it.

"Now get your but out of my office and don't you dare to run away from her again!" Minato laughed softly as he pushed Kakashi out of his office.

As soon as the Copy Ninja was out of the room, he made his way to the academy. With each step that brought him closer to her, his heart sped up too. The moment he arrived at the academy he feared that he might have a heart attack before he could even see her after twelve years!

Wait.

Kakashi was already in front of a classroom, where he heard voices coming from inside, as he stopped dead in his tracks.

Twelve…years. It had only been twelve years! I will not meet the sixteen-year-old girl who I loved so much in there! In that classroom, a twelve-year-old girl is waiting for me. Damn. The following four years will be very interesting, Hatake Kakashi, Kakashi thought groaning miserably.

Trying to forget about the torture that was sure to come during the next four years he opened the door to the classroom and was about to say something, when he was thrown backwards, right out of the door that he had just entered. As he opened his eyes again, he found himself sitting on the floor and leaning against a wall and he looked into green eyes…familiar green eyes.

"Kakashi! I missed you so much!"

Before he could have reacted to the tears, which went down her cheeks, he was shocked to feel her tiny lips on his masked ones. This feeling was also very familiar to him. There had been only one girl in his life that made him feel this way while they shared a kiss.

When the girl with the pink hair removed her lips and stared down at him, he asked hoarsely and with glistening eyes.

"Sakura?"

Beaming at him, she sniffed a little. "The one and only," she answered.

She was still sitting on his lap, as she wiped her tears off her cheeks and tried to smile at him, but it was a poor imitation of her natural smile. Kakashi could still only look at her in disbelief. The girl who was currently straddling him had long hair. Very long hair.

"Y-your hair," it came out more hoarsely than he wanted.

Suddenly the tears were gone and an angry expression crawled over her face. Without warning him, she slapped his arm.

"You jerk! After four years of waiting, the first thing you can think of is my hair! You are such a coward, Hatake Kakashi! I can't believe - Hmpf," she was silenced abruptly by his kiss.

Since she was so angry with him, Sakura did not even notice him pulling down his mask and moving forward.

To Kakashi that outburst was the most beautiful thing he had seen in twelve years. This was definitely his Sakura! His one and only Sakura has come back to him at last! That is why he could not stop himself as he kissed her passionately. His lips moved against hers and the sensation building up between them was something he had thought to have lost long ago. Not able to stop them, tears of joy ran down his cheeks and he smiled softly against her lips. Sakura could feel him smiling and placed her arms around his neck deepening the kiss. The Copy Ninja felt like he was becoming one with her as he pulled her closer to him as she already had been.

"Ew! Stop that, Kakashi-sensei! That's disgusting!" a loud voice shouted from the doorframe.

Kakashi and Sakura broke apart immediately after hearing Naruto's protest. Within a second Kakashi was on his feet again and Sakura stood in front of him. The moment was ruined for them thanks to the loud blond boy. Kakashi waved at Naruto and greeted him.

"Hey, Naruto. Long time no see! How are you?"

Naruto wrinkled his nose. "Thanks to you I think I am going to be blind soon! Fortunately my dad has already warned me about the two of you otherwise I would have chopped your head off the very moment I saw you touching Sakura-chan!"

Sakura rolled her eyes at Kakashi and moved her lips so that he had to read her lips in order to understand what she had said. "Kids," she had mouthed.

The Copy Ninja had to chuckle because of that.

"What?" Sakura asked frowning.

"Isn't that a little bit ironic? Remember that you are a kid yourself, Sakura," Kakashi said amused.

"Maybe my body is that of a kid, but my mind certainly isn't," her frown deepened.

Kakashi walked by her ruffling her hair. "I know," he whispered and entered the classroom once again, however, this time he was not thrown right out of it.

Naruto had already gone back inside and was now sitting next to a dark haired boy, who was without a doubt Uchiha Sasuke. If the Jonin had not recognized him by the Uchiha symbol, he certainly would have recognized him by his frown. That frown must run in the Uchiha's family by the looks of it.

When Sakura followed Kakashi back inside, she sat down next to Naruto waiting for Kakashi to say something.

Coughing a little to get everyone's attention Kakashi started. "Well let's go to the roof for the introductions. I think I need some fresh air."

Sakura beamed at him, Naruto rolled his eyes at him and Sasuke… well, he was Sasuke. Kakashi went ahead, but heard Naruto whispering, "After all that making out I would need some fresh air, too - Ouch!"

The Copy Ninja did not need to turn around to know Sakura had slapped him. Just as he arrived at the roof, he breathed in deeply in order to get as much oxygen as possible. Turning around again, he saw the three kids sitting down on the stairs in front of him, so he leaned against the railings behind him and crossed his arms in front of his chest.

"Why don't you introduce yourselves? One at a time," Kakashi said.

Naruto looked confused. "Introducing ourselves? What are we supposed to say?"

Sakura had to laugh at that while Naruto was looking at her even more confused. "What?" he asked.

"Oh, nothing," she giggled. There was a time, when she had asked that very same question.

Kakashi cleared his throat to get their attention again. "Well, you could start with things you like, things you hate, dreams for the future, hobbies…things like that."

"Why don't you tell us first, I mean before we talk, tell us about you, so we can see how this is supposed to work," Naruto complained.

Kakashi was taken aback. "Me?" his gaze wandered to Sakura, who just nodded. "I am Kakashi Hatake. Things I like and things I hate…I don't feel like telling you that."

Naruto's mouth opened in utter surprise. However, that did not hinder Kakashi to go on. "My dreams for the future…I have to think about it," he shot a pointed look at Sakura, who blushed furiously. "As for my hobbies…I have lots of hobbies," he did not think it was appropriate to mention that he liked reading pornography.

"That was totally useless. All he really told us was his name," Naruto muttered to Sakura and Sasuke.

Sakura could not help but giggle again. This reminded her of a crazy role-play, where her text had been stolen by her co-actor. Fortunately, she knew Kakashi better than anyone and was not frustrated now since he had told them so little about him.

"Okay, your turn. You first," Kakashi looked at Naruto, who smiled brightly.

"Believe it, I am Naruto Uzumaki. I like instant ramen in a cup, since my mom cannot really cook and I really like the ramen Iruka-sensei got me at Ichiraku's noodle shop. What I hate are the three minutes you have to wait after you pour the water in the ramen cup. My hobby is eating different kinds of ramen and comparing them and my future dream is…to be the greatest Hokage! Then the whole village has to recognize me as Naruto Uzumaki and not only as the Fourth's son!"

After a short pause, Kakashi tried to look indifferent and looked at Sakura. "Alright, next."

Sakura beamed up at him and said, "I am Sakura Haruno. I think you can imagine what I like best, can't you, Kakashi-sensei?" she winked at Kakashi. "What I hate are recommencements…I prefer things to carry on where they had stopped," she licked her upper lip in a very bold way, as if she was seducing Kakashi. "My dream for the future is-"

Before she could say another word, Kakashi had raised a hand to silence her and looked to Sasuke. "Last one."

"My name is Sasuke Uchiha. I like training with my brother and I hate being ignored. My dream for the future is to be a better ninja than any Uchiha in Konoha," the frowning boy said calmly.

Kakashi nodded. "Okay, now that we are finished with introducing ourselves, you can go home and get some rest, since we have our first mission tomorrow."

"What kind of mission are we going to have?" Naruto asked excited.

"It's a task that the four of us will do together," Kakashi answered smiling wickedly.

"What? What? What?" Naruto wanted to know.

Making a dramatic pause, the Copy Ninja replied after a couple of seconds. "A survival exercise."

"Huh?" the disappointment in Naruto's voice was unmistakable. "Survival exercise? I thought we were supposed to have a real mission not more practice! We already did this stuff at the academy. That's how we got here!" Naruto whined.

"This is not like your previous training," Kakashi simply said.

"So what kind of training is it then?" the blond boy did not stop asking questions.

"If I tell you the answer you are not going to like it," the Copy Ninja's smile widened. "Of the 27 graduates who just came here only nine will actually be accepted as Genin. The other 18 will be weeded out and sent back to the academy. In other words this is a make-it-or-break-it-pass-fail test and the chance that you fail is at least 66 per cent."

Naruto could just gape at his teacher, while Sakura had been smiling brightly this whole time and Sasuke was still wearing his mask of indifference.

"See? Didn't I tell you, you wouldn't like it?" the silver haired man asked rhetorically.

After finding his voice again, Naruto started to complain again. "That's crazy! We worked hard to get here, believe it! What was that graduation test for anyway?"

"Oh that? That was just to select candidates who might become Genin, or not," the Copy Ninja explained.

"What?" Naruto could not believe what his teacher had just said.

"That's how it is. I decide whether you pass or fail. Be at the training grounds at five a.m. and bring your ninja gear. That's it. You are dismissed. Oh, tomorrow you better skip breakfast or else you'll puke," Kakashi walked towards the kids and stopped in front of Sakura, who was still smiling at him.

"You know, Kakashi, you did a pretty good job there despite the fact that this is your first time being a teacher," Sakura chuckled.

"Flattery will get you everywhere, Sakura-chan," he answered in a low voice. "However, each word I just said was actually the same thing Minato had once told his team, when Obito, Rin and me began as Genin."

Sakura raised her eyebrows in disbelief.

"What? I am not called Copy Ninja for nothing," Kakashi laughed.

The smile, which Kakashi had missed so much during the past twelve years, reappeared on her face. Although Sakura was standing right next to him now, it was still difficult for him to believe that all of this was really happening. Spacing out he didn't notice how Sakura took his hand in her own and squeezed it a little.

"So…do you have plans for today?" she asked alluringly.

He looked into her eyes refocusing. "I wanted to head home and take a long, hot shower," the Copy Ninja looked around to see that the other two kids were already gone.

"Do you mind if I come with you? It's been a really long time since I was at your home," Sakura purred drawing circles on his hand with her thumb.

After hearing that, Kakashi had to swallow hard.


~

It was just as he thought. Not even the cold shower could help him calm down. The fact that Sakura was sitting in his living room while he was showering was driving him crazy. As he turned off the shower, he grabbed a towel and dried himself as fast as possible. As soon as he was done, he put on some pants, which he had prepared beforehand. He didn't have the patience to dry his hair, so he just went back to the living room with wet and dripping hair. When he saw Sakura sitting on his sofa, he wished he could return to the cold water.

"You have different furniture," she commented.

Remembering how he destroyed everything in the night, when Sakura had died, he looked at her ruefully. "Yes, my house was kind of…in need of renovation. That's why I got new furniture, too."

Sakura nodded tapping the place next to her on the sofa telling Kakashi silently to sit down. As he did, she smiled at him and said. "You even got rid of that annoying ticking thing."

Kakashi had to laugh softly because of the memory, which came to his mind at that moment. Sakura had always complained about not being able to sleep because of the clock and its annoying ticking noise. Without thinking, Kakashi put his arm around Sakura's shoulders and pulled her closer to him kissing the top of her head.

"You can't imagine how happy I am now," he said earnestly.

Sakura didn't think too long about her next move. Suddenly she got up, but only to sit down again on the Copy Ninja's lap with her hands on his bare chest.

"Do you know what would make me happy?" she asked boldly brushing her lips against his lips barely even touching them.

"I can guess," Kakashi's voice was barely a whisper. He put his hands on her hips massaging lightly, just when Sakura kissed him. The moment she felt his tongue brushing against her lower lip, she opened her mouth for him. Just when Kakashi felt Sakura's tongue moving with his, he forgot all those lonely years. Everything that mattered now was that she was there with him…kissing him…

Kakashi groaned at the sensation as she moved her hips against his lap, which caused his state of trance to disappear and his voice of reasoning to raise an alarm in his mind. Since Sakura didn't stop moving against his lap, Kakashi could feel his blood running south. Not once did they stop their passionate kiss, so the Copy Ninja had to tighten his grip on Sakura's hips and push her away a little. Leaning backwards the pink haired girl smiled at him smugly and asked. "What is it?"

Taking a deep breath Kakashi answered trying to compose himself. "We can't take it further, Sakura."

The smug look disappeared from her face and she raised her eyebrows. "What do you mean?"

"I'll go to jail, Sakura, for bedding you. You are twelve years old now…we have to wait at least another four years until you turn sixteen, before we-" he was interrupted as Sakura moved her hips again brushing against the bulge in Kakashi's pants causing him to moan deeply.

"I don't think you are that patient, Hatake Kakashi," she purred against his ear.

"That's it!" Kakashi groaned desperately. Getting up from the sofa with Sakura's legs wrapped around his waist and her arms around his neck, he made his way to his bedroom and laid the girl in his arms on his bed, before opening his left eye.

"What-" Sakura was bewildered and shocked, but it was already too late. His Sharingan had already begun to whirl. Slowly sleep took over and she closed her eyes. After a couple of seconds Kakashi closed, his left eye again and watched the pink haired girl in her sleep. As he got up from the bed, he looked down to the bulge in his pants and groaned miserably.

"God, Sakura! Not even I can survive four years of cold showers!"
