A tender moment from Chapter 29

--

The blonde stilled, her blue eyes bright and watery. She gazed at him, her vision wavering slightly. "Kakashi-sensei..." She leaned forward to rest her head against his shoulder, gripping the material of his shirt.

The gray haired jounin stilled, staring down at his student in surprise. However, his expression softened once more when he felt the warm moisture seeping through the material of his shirt. Gazing down at his student, he was suddenly reminded of Iruka's words to him during the blonde's stay in the hospital.

~ "She'll forgive you, you know... She thinks rather highly of you, after all..." ~

Kakashi sighed again as he gazed down at the young blonde under his charge. He never would have expected the situation to pan itself this way; Naruto had always been a very physical person, reacting to the slightest of insults against her, but save for Nami he'd never truly seen her get emotional. It reminded him that despite all her brashness and bravado the blonde was still very young. 'Naru...'

Aware that the blonde's tears seemed to have ceased, he lifted his hand, resting it lightly on top of her head. The slight tensing of her shoulders was barely even noticeable. "We in Team 7 do not abandon our teammates..." He grinned once again. "Did you forget that already, Naru?"

She straightened up, giving him a shaky smile as she dried her eyes with a sleeve. "Never."

After writing this moment I had the most interesting thought... Do you suppose Kakashi ever apologized for abandoning Naruto and Sakura in favor of training Sasuke? I mean, after all... the Chidori almost killed Naruto at the Valley of the End.

Something for me to consider, ne?
