She had let herself in. The old key was still with her and still fit to her surprise. She walked in leaving the door open and walking up to her old room.
A trap maybe? No. I doubt he even remembers that I was real..The little girl who lost her clan in the second massacre by Itachi Uchiha is most likely a myth now. I'm no one, not even the girl, who the great Kakashi Hatake, agreed to take care of and get her to go back into the world..
Maemi let a smile smile cross her lips as she opened the door and realized everything was the same as she had left it. It was as if he had forgotten the room completely in the passed four years. She set her bag on the tile and then opened the dresser that seemed almost caked with dust. Her eyes noticed the old kimono she loved wearing.
"I doubt this old thing even fits me anymore. I did grow a lot."
She closed the dresser and then took off her black fingerless gloves and set them down on her backpack. Her azure eyes glanced around a bit as she walked out of the room. She had a bad feeling that he would appear any moment now.

Kakashi decided to walk home from the hokage's palace after the terrible news about Deidara. "a coma... damn..." Kakashi spoke as he reached his house and noticed that the door was open. "....... ok..." Kakashi said suspiciously walking in. He had a kunai in hand just incase somebody tried to attack. He walked upstair passing many closed doors until he saw that Maemi's door was open. He continued walking and noticed somebody in the room. He didnt recognize her at first and was about to throw his kunai at her but then dropped it once he found out who she was. "Dang, you sure have grow a lot... Maemi" He spoke leaning against the wall.

Maemi spun around at once. Her mind was racing as she looked toward him.
"I didn't think you'd be home, so I let myself in."
She stood up completely as her figure was seen. She had a small waist, long legs, and a pretty well rounded figure. Her deep azure eyes looked toward him as she brushed back her now dark black hair. It was no longer the bright sakura kissed pink, that it had been when she left.
"It's been a long time, too long."
She began walking toward him with her black boots softly clicking against the tile. She luckily had her jacket on, so when she bent down he didn't get a view of how much better than sexy jutsu Naruto she was. Her gentle hands picked up the kunai as she smiled a bit.
"How about we have some coffee and talk, Sensei?"
She put a sweet and more childish tone to the last word, as if letting her voice be compared to her old one. Now her voice was much more seductive sounding and smooth, it was no longer sweet and cheerful.
As Maemi turned, she winked a bit twirling the kunai around her index finger as he had once in their private training.

Kakashi had a smile on his face, but she couldnt see it because of his mask. He walked towards her to get a better look watching her spin the kunai around her index finger. "She's gotten beautiful... and she looks stronger too." He thought still walking towards her. "sure... that sounds great." He said now taking an even closer look at her. It really was Maemi, just different. He turned around and began walking out the room, but slowly so Maemi could catch up. "So... why'd you come back?" Kakashi asked turning around and was now walking backwards.

She didn't completely want to tell him the reason. It was a bit embarrassing, but at the same time she still trusted him like a slight father figure. She didn't know how to tell him really, but she knew she would sometime in the future..if she stayed that long.
Her hand quickly stopped the kunai without even cutting her skin as she put it in the kunai pouch around her waist and following after him.
"I came back, I don't know, maybe it was to see you."
She smiled a bit. It was true that she missed waking up before him and going to get him up then cooking and having to bring it to his room because he just turned over when she came before.
Maemi suddenly could feel the pressure of sorrow that radiated from him as she put her hand on his shoulder.
"Something wrong?"
Her deep azure eyes looking into the one eye still showing from under his mask as she had an expression of caring on her face. It was hard to see him so depressed.

"huh? oh... it's just my friend, Deidara. He's been going through a lot lately. He broke up with his girlfriend, tried to commit suicide, and stuff. Now he's in a coma for a while and who knows when he'll get out of it. I just feel sorry for him..." Kakashi spoke trying to hide his emotions. "But, at least you're back! that's cheering me up!" He spoke turning around once more and began walking normally again. "So, where have you been staying? Or did you become an outcast or something?" Kakashi asked as he began walking down the stairs.

"Kakashi, I left the village four year ago. I haven't been staying with anyone or anything. I've been training and thinking about some things..important things.."
She followed him down the staircase and then passed him walking into the kitchen and quickly walking to where the tea pots used to be and opened it seeing plates instead. She closed it and the looked toward the stove noticing the pot sitting there.
"Still can't put things away, can you Sensei?"
Maemi slowly turned on the water and washed it out then refilled it. She set it on the stove and let the water heat up.
"Have you been cooking for yourself since I left or eating instant ramen like Naruto used to- speaking of him..how is everyone here?"
She didn't want to openly say she knew where Sasuke was or that she knew he was gone. Maemi wasn't a fool. She knew things had to be worded carefully while dealing with Kakashi Hatake, even if you were close friends.

Kakashi was speechless from all the questions and walked into the kitchen as well. "Naruto's alright, he gotten stronger, i wouldnt be surprized if he became the next hokage. Sakura's fine, she's just like Lady-Tsunade, possibly better. Sasuke's still gone. Aster, he joined the Akatsuki. Raku, she broke up with Deidara and i think she has a new boyfriend. Kiroshu is out on a mission. So... yeah, everbody's ok really.... Except Deidara..." Kakashi spoke leaning his arms agains the counter. "And... I've really just been going to Raku's house to eat, she was like a mom to me or something. Now, that she broke up with Dei, i might not come over anymore... So, i guess i'll just make instant ramen, or get you to cook for me like old times" He spoke watching the stove for some reason.

Maemi listened to the answers as she smiled a bit knowing everyone was mainly in good condition. She didn't really know some of them,but at least Sakura and Naruto were fine. She didn't bother correcting him about how she left before Sasuke.
"I see.."
She heard his words about Deidara, who she had never met, however hearing about him no longer spending time with Raku made her a bit sorrowful as she seemed to appear next to him.
Her arms were around him now as she held him close to her like he did when she first came his home so long ago. She had began crying about her family and such, when he had hugged her so closely that she had to forget that all.
"It's alright, Kakashi-sensei. I'm here, even if it's just for a day or if it's forever. I'm here for you. You can show your emotions to me, and I will still be here."
She was whispering to him softly as she smiled at him. She held him tightly, with her arms around his waist from in front of him. She could been hitting against the table she was so close to it.
I'll always be here, just like you were for me..

Kakashi blushed slightly as he hug her back. "I know... it feels like you're the only one that cares about me now..." Kakashi spoke holding Maemi close. "thank you" He whispered to her. He noticed that Maemi was still hugging him so he didnt let go not wanting to ruin anything. "I love you Maemi..." Kakashi spoke pushing away from Maemi. "I mean.... like a friend-daughter-sister-sort of way..." Kakashi spoke fast not wanting her to mistaken his words for anything else. He was still blushing. He tried to think of something to change the subject but nothing came to mind.

Maemi smiled a bit as she listed to him talk, and then as he pushed back she giggled a bit.
"I love you too. The same way I always have. We've always been like family, so don't worry about it."
She noticed the slight redness to his face as she was about to ask him what was wrong when the whistle from the pot made her jump up as she turned it off.
She poured the water into two cups gently and careful not to burn herself as she set it back down. She then filled it with coffee beans and mixed some creamer in both cups.
"Do you put sugar in yours?"
Maemi turned with her azure eyes locking onto him. A slight smirk crossed her lips as if telling him that she would change the subject for him.
It's strange that Sensei would go so crazy about saying 'I love you'. Oh well. Maybe he over dosed on his romance novels when I was away.
She giggled at her own thoughts.

"yes please..." Kakashi spoke looking around. He had the urge to take out his 'Makout Paradise' book and read it but stopped himself. "So, how old are you now? 16, 17?" Kakashi asked just throwing guesses out. He forgot how old she was when she left so he didnt know how old she was now. Zekashi has had an eye on Kakashi for a while now, trying to find out his weaknesses to take him out. He was watching him through a window using his Camouflage Jutsu to blend in with the surroundings. "So... That's Maemi... it looks like Kakashi has a close relationship with her..." The Uchiha spoke still watching them.

Maemi walked over to Kakashi handing him a cup of coffee as she set hers down and pretend to count on her fingers.
"Seventeen, but you must remember that we have the same birthday. September twenty-first."
She smirked a bit at him as she looked right at where Zekashi was as if she saw right through his genjutsu. Her azure eyes help a warning look even though she saw nothing. They quickly looked back toward Kakashi as she smiled.
"So what book do you have now? You must have gotten to finish that other one by now, right?"
It was as if his comment about love had flew right passed her now as she sighed a bit.
"I remember always wanting to take that book and burn it. I thought you took it out because you were ignoring me all the time. I didn't know you just loved it that much."
She giggled a bit as she took at bit of the coffee into her mouth. It was good to have something warm pass down her throat that wasn't water. She hadn't really gotten anything to drink but water. And it had once again slipped her mind that she had to be starving from not eating for the passed five days.

Kakashi stood there thinking of the old times when Maemi tried to burn his books. "yeah... i finished the third and last novel, i even saw the movie! Now im waiting to see the second movie and this new book called 'Twilight'. It's about vampires and I heard it has a lot of romance!" Kakashi spoke hapily. He slowly pulled down his masks and took a sip of his coffee not being embarrassed at all if Maemi saw his face. "I cant wait for that new book..."
Zekashi stared at Maemi when she glared a him. He continued watching them and when Kakashi took off his mask, it seemed like he had a disgusting looking his face that nobody could see because of his jutsu.

Maemi nodded a bit as she looked down at her coffee cup. Her false front of happiness had began to fade as the depression of her past washed over her like a tsunami.
"Brother! Did you read that book!?" "Yeah, but it's too adult for you!" "I'm not a little kid!" "You're only seven, so you're still too young!" "Not fair!"
Her azure eyes began to cloud with tears as she continued thinking of her elder brother, who had been slain so mercilessly.
"Maemi! Run!" "Shinn! I won't! I'm going to be a ninja too!" "This is bigger than you! He's here! Run!" "Shinn!"
Her grip around the glass tightened as she saw herself as a child. The blood soaking her as her brother was slit in half right before her eyes. She still blamed herself for it. She had let 'him' into the gates of their clan. She bit down on her lip until blood drip down as she tried to use pain against her sorrow, however sorrow always took control.
..Shinn..
The glass broke at that moment. The pieces became embedded within her pale hands as blood now began to drip down them.
Being in this village, in this house, it brought back the pain and hatred that she had tried to lock within her mind, within her heart. It made her remember the truth of her life. The shame that engulfed her soul.
Her eyes looked toward the blood as if she were in a trance by it. She just watched it drip down her palms and fingers. Those beautiful eyes began to darken as if the blood had triggered something within her, but a voice alone. A call of her name, would break the spell that seemed to shadow over her.
(( I'm in a very expressive mood. ))
