Kakashi was very worried. At some point, he demanded she take a seat and talk to him about whatever was bothering her. 

But when the blindfold was removed from her eyes, he didn't expect them to look so tired and pained. She buried her head in her hands and slowly breathed. A hand rubbed her back in support for whatever she had to say.

"It's all my..." He stayed silent, allowing her to speak. "If I wasn't so reckless, m-maybe I would've- could've..."

"What is it?" He hesitantly asked, and watched as she turned her body to face him.

"I'm sorry...I-I can't have kids. I'm infertile."

"..."

Kakashis expression didn't change. His eye was lazily lidded but seemed to be frozen. Finally, his eyebrows scrunched together and Nakano let out a bitter chuckle.

"Of course I can't give life. All I ever do is ruin and take lives...Hiroshi, Shuns...All- All of them..."

It took him awhile, but he managed to snap out of his rapid thoughts and shocked state. His hand went to the back of her head and slowly brought it to rest on his clothed chest, running his fingers through her hair in an attempt to calm both of them.

"When did you find out?" She rested her eyes that were tired and held deep eyebags as well as stress lines.

"Two days ago...I wanted to check in with the hospital since we didn't use protection- a-and..."

"It's okay..." He muttered and closed his own eyes, leaning away from the kiss he'd placed on her forehead. They stayed in a pained silence for a while, both allowing their minds to process the situation and figure out what to do.

"Do you want kids...Kakashi?"

"If you're implying that I should leave you to have kids, then no. Team 7 is enough." Her lips twitched up a bit at the way he sounded so exhausted at the mention of the kids, but there was a little fondness in his words.

"Nakano, if it's not with you, then I don't want it. Besides, if we really want a kid we can just adopt in the future."

"Why..." She pulled back and looked at him with a conflicted stare, clutching the fabric sheltering her chest.

"You could be so much happier. So much...Happier..." 

She allowed his large hands to grasp her smaller ones. Lifting them, he brought her ring finger to his lips and kissed it. He then laced their fingers together and forced her to shift her gaze away from the floor and onto the locked fingers.

"Isn't it obvious?" He huffed with a roll of his on eye and practically squished her into a hug. "I love you, idiot."

She didn't smile, but Nakano was relieved with his words. Soon, the lack of sleep finally came crashing down on her. Though the last words she heard him utter made her smirk in disbelief.

"'But I love me more.'"

'Huh, jerk.'

"IDIOT, I FUDGING TOLD YOU! HE'S YOUR FIANCE WHY DO I KNOW HIM BETTER THAN YOU?!"

"DON'T SCREAM IN MY EAR, KURAMA!"

 ◦•●◉✿✿◉●•◦

"Sensei!" 

"Itadori!"

"Are you done wallowing in depression?!" He yelled as he ran towards her with a grin, but she stepped aside and avoided his hug, crossing her arms and frowning at him.

"Yes, I'm done. Hn."

"..." The three genin stared at her bare face for a while, before they all burst into loud laughter. Confused by their sudden amusement, she openly expressed her thoughts only to have Megumi who was now red faced, explain.

"You look so much like Fugaku-Sama right now- PFFT- HAHAHA!"

"No I don't."

"Yes you do!" Nobara laughed and slapped her knee, while Nakano turned to Itadori with hopeful eyes.

"S-Sorry sensei, but you totally d-do!"

"Tch," She turned away from them. "Not my students calling me old..."

"Awe~" Nobara teased as she threw her arms around the Uchihas neck, Itadori doing the same.

"Sensei's embarrassed~"

"No I'm not." Eventually, Megumi joined in, but the three were too heavy for her since she fell to the ground with a laugh. 

"We're only joking sensei, we still love you!"

"Speak for yourself, Itadori."

"Uh-Huh."

Nakano laughed a little, freaking them out the slightest as they scurried off her. Her laughs seized and she looked at them with a genuine and soft smile.

"You know..." They sent her curious looks. "You really remind me of my own team."

A figure watched with a scowl as the head of the Uchiha laughed with her students, a smile on her face as if she had no care in the world.

They clench their fist, slightly high pitched and feminine voice gritting out words laced with rage and anger. Their red eye with three tomoe spun behind the masks hole and focused solely on her figure.

"Uchiha Nakano..." They seethed with bloodlust, wanting to kill her right her and right now. But they couldn't. Not with the deal they had with Uchiha Madara.

"I will kill everyone you love. You will feel my pain, and then finally after you suffer, I will kill you slowly..."

And they teleported before any of the nearby Uchiha could spot them, leaving nothing but a small swirl of bloodlust and rage filler chakra.
