Falling for my Sensei •• Kakashi Hatake x OC

The Wild Iris Bar (Kakashi's POV)

"I've texted her and called her multiple times, and nothing." Asuma says, unable to hide the concern in his voice.

"I'm sure she's just upset and needs her space." Iruka reassures us.

They were both pretty surprised when I told them that I had to suspend her for a week.

But Iruka seemed like he was angry with me. He's trained plenty of students before so he should understand having to make difficult decisions when it comes to them.

Still, I couldn't help but feel like I may have been too harsh.

Sakura said awful things to her out on the field today. Honestly I was surprised that Akari didn't beat her ass right then and there.

It was my fault though.

I should've known after what happened this weekend, Ari would have very little patience with her.

I should've paired her with Naruto.

I was thrown off the second I saw her today. She looked indescribably beautiful. But when I saw the hickeys on her neck I nearly lost my cool.

Seeing her with those greedy marks on her neck, knowing I put them there...

I wanted to grab her, pin her up against the tree and have my way with her again.

And it made me feel so guilty.

I know it was wrong to think like that about her considering I'm no good for her.

I had to lie and say I had paperwork to do so that I could collect myself.

Watching her battle Sakura was mesmerizing. Her moves were smooth and calculated, proving really how far she's come.

But when Sakura pushed her too far and Ari threatened to have sex with Sasuke out of spite, my jealousy boiled over.

I've never been a jealous man before.

I felt sick to my stomach thinking about her with another man.

I'm weak and selfish and I want her all for myself even though I shouldn't. Even though I don't have the right to claim her.

Truthfully when I told them I had heard enough, I don't know if I was talking about their arguing or Akari talking about sleeping with someone else.

Maybe both.

The thing is, I expect better from Ari. Sakura's level of maturity is laughable in comparison to her's.

So much so, that I tend to forget Ari isn't the same age as me.

"You're probably right, Iruka." Asuma decides.

I nod in agreement.

I'm sure she doesn't want to hear a lecture from any of us right now.

"Let's just let it go for tonight and have a good time tonight. I'll go over there tomorrow and talk to her." Iruka says as we walk up to the doors of the Wild Iris bar.

It's definitely my least favorite bar to go to because it's always so crowded.

I tried to tell them I wasn't feeling up to it with the day I had, but Asuma insisted it would help me forget about it.

Besides, apparently it was Emiko's night off and she was meeting us there with a couple of friends.

The last thing I feel like doing is hanging out in a crowded bar with a bunch of women I don't know or care for... but here I am.

Asuma spots Emiko at a table by a window on the other side of the place and she waves us over.

We make our way to where she and her two friends are sitting.
