Chapter 3 Mutual revelations, although most of them are one-sided

'Become Family'

This is something that Kakashi in his previous life has not done in his life.

The former Naruto said that no one else would be his real family no matter what, although he was also his guardian in name, but ......

The teacher and his wife are gone.

Naruto didn't have any relatives either, and after he was gone, he learned that his 'girlfriend' was also fake, just nominally used to disguise.

No matter how many people were around him, he was always alone.

Kakashi thinks that being able to support his existence as a family member is only himself.

Maybe that person can be counted as well.

But it's limited to that once.

The reality they live in is very different from before.

Kakashi hung his head at Naruto.

“……”

Naruto, who smelled of garbage, stood up without saying a word, ran in front of Kakashi and ruffled his hair.

It feels good in the hand.

Aside from bathing and sleeping, Kakashi rarely had this kind of time when he became eye level.

When you ride on your shoulder, you can naturally pull his hair, but ......

Kakashi just lowered his head and let the little trash rub his hair.

"When we get home, shall we have a good talk?"

After he finished asking, he suddenly felt the hand on his head, and pulled a few locks of his hair down.

{I'm still young anyway, and I can still grow hair......}

Kakashi thought to himself.

It's not that I haven't been hacked before, it's just not as many as this time.

“…… Well, can we get home in a minute? ”

Naruto quietly slipped the hair from his hand into his pocket.

"I don't think so, even if I run with you on my back, it will take at least five minutes."

Kakashi sensed that there was no hand on his head and looked up at Naruto.

It's a familiar expression.

"I want to hurry up and go home and take a shower, it smells so bad."

Naruto fanned himself with a fan in disgust.

- He himself smells the best.

"Aha......"

Kakashi smiled helplessly and held out his hand to him again.

This time Naruto didn't run away again.

-

Kakashi took Naruto to the room and took a shortcut from the roof to get home, which took less than a minute.

If you don't count the ten seconds when you take the key to open the door and enter the house to change your shoes.

Kakashi took the trash he had brought home from outside into the bathroom, threw his coat into a basin, put some laundry detergent in it, and soaked it in some water.

Naruto consciously threw all the clothes he was wearing into the basin as well, and motioned for Kakashi to help turn on the shower.

He couldn't reach it.

After simply rinsing away the smell of garbage, Naruto leisurely soaked in another large basin filled with most of the hot water, pulled off the fruity bath agent, and began to foam in the basin.

Kakashi, on the other hand, wore his usual over-neck tank top and cropped pants and sat on a small bench outside the bathroom to do his laundry.

He prepared another basin and planned to wash Naruto's clothes first.

"Wash your hair!"

Naruto took a hand of foaming water and threw it at Kakashi.

"Okay."

Kakashi raised his hand to wipe some of the sweat from his forehead casually, picked up the shampoo in the corner and crouched behind the child.

Naruto felt his hair covered in foam, and Kakashi's movements were very gentle, rubbing all parts of his scalp little by little.

It's especially like Tony's craftsmanship when I used to go to the barber shop to wash, cut and blow.

It's even better than that.

After Kakashi finished rubbing his hair, he took the shower to rinse off the foam and sat back outside to continue doing the laundry.

"I can't reach my back—"

Naruto grabbed two more handfuls of foam and smashed them at Kakashi, who had just sat down for less than half a minute.

Kakashi had no choice but to stand up again, find the foam that had been soaked in the bath agent, and wipe the child's back.

After wiping his back, Naruto jumped out of the basin and almost slipped, and when Kakashi went to help, he was smashed all over by a large handful of water that Naruto picked up after instantly squatting.

He didn't say anything, just poured the foamy water from the basin down the drain, rinsed the basin and put new hot water in it.

By the way, he also took the shower and flushed the foam off Naruto's body.

"Tsk...... It's boring. ”

Naruto smacked his lips and muttered into the new basin of hot water.

Kakashi's clothes were covered in water, and he didn't mean to take a shower or change his clothes, so he continued to go back to do the laundry without taking it seriously.

"I don't think I've ever seen you take a shower."

Naruto lay on the edge of the basin and looked at the bath bomb on the ceiling, pulling the water for a while.

"Well...... There's a reason for that, though not very important. ”

Kakashi finished rubbing his garbage-smelling clothes with a washboard, then changed the basin of water and continued to wash it.

"What is the reason?"

Naruto rolled over like a fish and looked at Kakashi's back outside the bathroom.

Obviously only sixteen years old, when he washes clothes, he looks like a middle-aged and elderly person.

"It's not a big deal, even if you know it...... Well, I'll talk about it later, I'll wash my clothes first. ”

Kakashi didn't want Naruto to know about it now, but after thinking about it again, he felt that they really had to talk about it.

- "I'll go pick up the things I've stored in the store later, and we'll talk about that." ”

He squinted and smiled at Naruto.

“……”

Naruto pursed his lips and rolled over to continue enjoying his bath time.

-

Naruto, who no longer smelled of garbage after taking a shower, wore a children's yukata made of the same material as a towel, and ran back to the bedroom barefoot, stepping on small footprints with water on the ground.

Kakashi picked up the cloth and wiped the floor briefly from the bedroom, finding his change of clothes and going into the bathroom to take a shower.

Naruto knew that Kakashi was usually taking a shower, but he was never in front of him.

And he didn't want to get drenched in any more water after taking a shower and drying it, so he never went to the bathroom to raid.

If it weren't for Kakashi's very masculine appearance, he would have thought that this Kakashi might be a woman.

Naruto hugged the pillow on the bed upright, intending to squint for a moment.

It's really easy to get sleepy just after taking a shower.

-

Naruto was awakened by the sweet smell from far and near.

It's fragrant, sweet, and a little sour.

"Are you awake?"

Kakashi carried a large bag of things he had gone out with him earlier and placed the cat puppet on the bedside frame.

There are already most of the rows of cat puppets sitting on it, and the colors are different.

"What are you holding?"

Naruto let go of the pillow in a daze, and when he sat up, he realized that his yukata had been changed into loungewear and covered with a quilt.

"It's your favorite pot meat."

Kakashi placed a translucent lunch box containing orange-red dishes on the small table.

“……”

[Sure enough, it's the same.] ]

Naruto lifted the covers and slipped into the covers.

Kakashi sighed and closed the lid back on, covering most of the heat that spread outward.

"Naruto, I have something to tell you, but before that I want to know...... How much do you know about me? ”

He sat down on the edge of the bed and gently patted Naruto on the shoulder through the quilt.

“……”

Naruto showed half of his face from the quilt, and he saw Kakashi's vicissitudes and loneliness.

- "What do you mean by that?" ”

Naruto arched back vigilantly holding the pillow.

[Could it be that my business has been exposed?] ]

[Does he know that I am not from this world?] ]

[But why would he know?] Or ......]

"You're not from here either?"

[That's not right, even if he's not, he shouldn't know my preferences, right?] ]

Naruto felt his mind become a mess.

“…… Perhaps, I used to know you, and I knew you since you became an adult. After it was all over, I was back in my teenage years before, so I ...... I know a lot about you, you don't have to be so afraid. ”

Kakashi didn't know if Naruto would understand such an explanation, as such an experience had never been experienced before.

But he probably understood why Naruto reacted so much.

If other strangers appear to know themselves well when they haven't said anything, they will feel uncomfortable.

"Are you sure you know me?"

Naruto wasn't quite convinced.

[I'm reborn through time...... How could Kakashi possibly know me? ]

He suddenly thought of the pot wrapped meat he had just smelled.

[Is there such a thing in this world?] Didn't you? ]

"I'm sure, you like bathing, you like hot springs, you like sweets, you like cats, you like to play games, you like to sleep with what you want, and you like pot meat the most; I feel that it doesn't matter what others do, but I will often be soft-hearted to help; I never had the idea of falling in love, I feel ...... This kind of presence of family members is also very troublesome; I often think a lot and say things that people don't understand very well. ”

Kakashi selectively picked out what he had learned.

- "What about you?" You know I'm ...... What does it look like? ”

He was still smiling.

It's a very polite smile.

[…… That's right. ]

Naruto had already determined that the ruined house-like guy that Kakashi was talking about was himself.

"Okay."

Since Kakashi knows so much...... He decided to tell him what he knew about Kakashi.

- "Kakashi Hagi, male, birthday is September 15th, type O blood, doesn't like to eat tempura, when he was a child, he often wore a scarf with black patterns and dark green colors, and often squeezed with soil. ”

- "I lost my father before graduating from ninja school to live on my own, I am good at fishing and frying fish, I took Tu and Sister Lin to your place to eat, you often go to see your father's grave alone, and you don't bring an umbrella when it rains. ”

- "After graduation, your broken personality caused no one to take you, and after the middle endure, no one took it and was assigned to my father, who took you to Loulan to do a task, and that day Yile Ramen opened on the first day. ”

- "Later, after they graduated, you and they formed a member of the Watergate class, and Daitu was smashed because he saved you, and Sister Lin took the initiative to meet your attack, you were my mother...... Her bodyguards, dressed in black robes and masks, hid in various places, and squatted on the balcony to play with dragonflies. ”

- "You will always go to visit Sister Lin's grave, and you will always go to the memorial monument to talk to Obito's name. ”

- "The night I was born, you were walking aimlessly with Kai on the street, and you used to be chased by Kai to duel, but you always didn't want to fight, so you often used other ways to decide the winner, and you used to compete with him—"

"Wait, wait, you wait ......!"

Kakashi was shocked by Naruto's words.

"Am I saying something wrong?"

Naruto searched for his impressions and spoke well, but when he was interrupted, he felt that he couldn't continue, and began to doubt his memory.

But after thinking about it, I couldn't figure out what was wrong.

“…… No, all of them are true, but ...... But ......"

Kakashi scratched at his hair tangled.

- He thought that Naruto in the past was just able to see the reality of the future, so he always made all kinds of preparations before things happened.

{Do you even know that kind of thing!?} }

What bothered him the most was the childish competition between him and Kai - something that was known.

It stands to reason that no one will know about it except for himself and Kai, right?
