A/N:
Someone asked for my playlists for when I write my chapters. for this one I didn't really listen to a playlist. But for the 🍋 part of the chapter, I did hit repeat a couple of times on POV by Ariana Grande 😘

The trip back to the Hidden Leaf Village was quick and easy.

I decided not to tell Kakashi that we were early so that I could surprise him.

It's only one in the afternoon and he expected me home sometime late this evening.

He texted me this morning and told me he was going to spend the day training with Sakura and Naruto so I have plenty of time to go home to shower and cook dinner before he gets home.

After Shikamaru and I drop off Yugito and pick up our mission earnings, we say goodbye and I head home.

The exhaustion from the poor sleep I've had for the last three nights starts to set in now that I'm back in the village and no longer on a mission.

When I walk into the apartment I'm greeted with an entire new living room set up. I completely forgot our new furniture had been delivered.

I walk in and throw myself down on the couch. Having a sectional is going to be much easier since now everyone will have a spot on the couch.

I look over at the matching lounge chair and giggle. I know Asuma isn't going to move his lazy ass from that spot.

Behind the lounge chair, is a wall of all the photographs that Kakashi had kept in his apartment. The only difference was that he added a few of my own family photos to the group. I smile at the collage of frames that hold all of our loved ones.

This apartment needed that.

I stand up and walk over to the kitchen table that now sat in the big empty spot just beyond the kitchen counter.

Kurenai and I had never gotten one since we always ate around the coffee table. Since Iruka, Asuma and Kakashi were usually here for meals, we would always either talk, play cards or watch movies while we ate. We never saw an issue doing that in the living room.

Lately it's been more of a nuisance to not have one.

I wonder...

I walk towards the second bedroom to see if he cleared out the spare bed and set up the office furniture that he picked out.

I open the door and I'm met with brand new dark oak office furniture. There's a huge desk facing the left wall when you walk into the room.

Stacked papers sit on the shelves, the majority of them being Kakashi's.

I notice he even labeled each shelf. I giggle to myself. He's so organized.

There's a small beige love seat that I don't remember picking out in between the desk and a new bookcase. The tall bookcase sits on the right wall replacing the old one that Kurenai and I kept all of our parents books in.

He neatly stacked all of the books onto the shelf in what looks like alphabetical order. I look closer and roll my eyes when I see that he dedicated an entire shelf to his Icha Icha Series.

I head back into the kitchen and notice a frame sitting on the kitchen counter facing the living room. I reach over the sink and grab the frame to look at it.

My heart swells at a selfie we had taken together the night we went to Sushi & Saké. I think this may be one of my favorite photos. And he went out of his way to print it out and buy a new frame for it.
