* knock knock*
She opens her door " kakashi." She lets him in. " What is it?"
Kakashi: promised date. And a gift.
Nina: what gift?
Kakashi: just pull on this ribbon.
She pulls onto the ribbon on the gift. He opens the wrapping " tada."
Nina: yukata... I don't have one. *Smiles* this is my first one.
Kakashi: I know.
Nina: how did you know?
Kakashi : had a peek at your drawer the last time.
Nina: you only saw it one time... And you remembered what I have and don't have... ?
Kakashi: kind of have a good memory.
Nina: arigato! But... Gomen. I can't wear the yukata now... Arm... A bit hard to wear it...
Kakashi: it's ok. You can wear it next time. It's a present for my brave Nina.
Nina: brave?
Kakashi: you got hurt and didn't even want to tell me. You rather kept quiet than tell me over the communication seal.
Nina: I... I didn't want you to be distracted in the mission. Because of me...
He pats her head " next time , tell me. Ok?" She nods " um... " He helps her to wear the half mask " ready to go?" She nods with a smile " um!" He held onto her hand " let's go. "

They walked into the streets with held hands ...
Kakashi: anything you would like to eat?
Nina: .... No.
Kakashi: ramen?
Nina: ok.
That's when they met gai.
Gai: Kakashi!!! Oh... Girlfriend? You never told me you had a girlfriend!!! Mmm.... Hm.... She looks so familiar...
She looked away and hides behind kakashi. Gai realises he was kind of scaring her and becomes embarrassed " ha... Gomen. I guess I should leave. But remember kakashi!!! Our battle will continue!!! "
Kakashi: hai hai.
Gai then leaves.
Kakashi: it's ok. He's gone now.
Nina: maybe this is a bad idea... I wanna go back. I'll cook something for you. Let's go back.
He held onto her hand tightly " it's ok. I'm here. "
Nina: mmm...
Kakashi: you wanted this. You'll be fine with me. Ok?
Nina: .... Mmm...

They reached the ramen store... They had ordered two bowls of ramen. They were both eating their ramen... That's when asuma came. He sat down beside kakashi " yo. "
Kakashi: yo. What brings you here?
Asuma: eating. Really hungry. Just came back from a mission.
Asuma realises Nina was looking into his direction " your friend?"
Nina tugs into kakashi's sleeve. Kakashi smiled " yup. Friend. "
Asuma: I see. You pick people who are similar to you to be your friends huh.
Kakashi: I guess... But you're not wearing a mask.
Asuma laughs " you're right. " Nina hurriedly slurps up her soup and finishes her noodle.
Asuma: oh. Am I making her uncomfortable? Gomen...
Nina stands up and bows and leaves .
Asuma: oh no. Gomen kakashi.
" It's ok. " Kakashi hurriedly chases after her.

Kakashi: Nina!
She ignores his calling and walks even faster. He flash steps and got in front of her " Nina. "
Nina: home.
Kakashi: alright.
