Chapter 25: The Cheesecake Effect
Kakashi sat across her to get a full view of her. He was just staring at her with an affectionate look. The girl took a sip from the tea looking back at him and met his eyes "Kakashi is there something on my face, you kept staring at me" she jokingly said. The man scrambled for something to say "I found a way on how to get you back home" Erza's eyes widen "really? How?" It might take a while but I think I can get you home soon, I'll tell you the details once I confirmed" with a sad expression he can't tell her that he went to Magnolia afraid that she might insists to go back instantly and he wanted to spend more time with her before letting her go- If he can let her go, Erza cannot see his face under the mask but she noticed the sadness in his eyes. "Thank you kakashi, If I get home I'll sure find a way to visit you and the kids back here" she said with a smile to ease his sadness, the ninja was surprised but what she said" I'd love that" he said which eased the pain in his chest. Erza reached out her fork to feed him some cake "I know you don't like sweets but I insists that you eat, I'll force feed you if necessary" she said with her famous death stare. Kakashi laughed at her pulled down his mask and ate the cake and immediately pulled it back up "I already saw your face, you don't have to cover it" she said "the kids are spying on us remember so I can't take the chance for anyone else to see my face" he answered "I don't understand why do you have to cover such a handsome face, specially that cute little mole under your lips, that mole makes me wanna kiss those lips " she said and giggled "I know, I am doing Konoha a favor by covering my face so women don't see it" he jokingly responded but her statement made him happy like he feels that he is on cloud nine. The words playing on his mind "kiss, she wanted to kiss me"
Erza is about to finish the whole cake "this is better than the one we had first but still no cake can beat what we have back home" then she continued telling stories about all the cakes she had. kakashi found himself smiling at the mage as she talk trying to figure out how someone as sweet and charming and adorable as her could turn into the strong and confident warrior he fought with. He likes both sides of her personality. He looked up to check his students who has their eyes glued to them this whole time Sakura covering naruto's mouth and sasuke on the other side quietly observing them. He looked back at Erza and the cake was almost finished. He stood up and went inside the store. When he came back he had another cake. Erza was surprised "You need to help me eat this, I have a secret to tell you- I should not eat more than one whole cake, it's like a drug and I do a lot of embarrassing things" she whispered. Kakashi just laughed at her and let her have some more. "When it comes to cakes you can compete with Choji" he said surveying her trying to figure out where all the food is going, she is definitely not showing any amount of calories she consumes. After examining her figure he realized where they are going and he won't complain.
Once they finished they decided to go for a night walk. He can't help but to glance over her as the moon cast a light on her face. He held her hand again. "Hmmm mmmm hmmm" She was humming and giggling she is not walking but skipping swaying her hands that held onto Kakashi's and her movements causing her chest to bounce. She is acting drunk but is kinda cute "Erza, are you okay? You're acting weird" He said "I told you I can't have too many cakes it puts me in a drunk state when overdosed" she said with a death stare. She's acting like a child and was too happy. "Let's get you home quickly so you can rest and be sober" He demanded and dragged her towards home but she tripped and fell on his chest. She purred, hugging herself against the man with a kitty like smile. His brain stuttered as he felt her warm embrace that he's been dreaming of. She looked up and pulled his mask down he was so caught in the moment that he wasn't able to pull the mask back on time when he felt her soft moistened lips against his. He can smell the sweet cake they ate. Erza pulled back looked at him for few seconds as he met her eyes then she kissed him again this time it was a passionate, fiery and demanding kiss and he want to pull away before he lose himself but can't seem to do it. He was not able to hold back anymore and he kissed her and the world fell away. It was slow and soft, comforting in ways that words would never be. His hand rested below her ear, his thumb caressing her cheek as their breaths mingled. His other hand rested on her waist pulling her closer until there was no space left between them and she could feel the beating of his heart against her chest. He was in a sensual state of intoxication she pulled away breaking the kiss touched his cheeks, restored the mask and giggled licking her lips and touching it. Kakashi was so shocked and yet was so happy he can't understand what he feels. "uhm Er-Erza that" before he can finish apologizing she shut him by putting a finger on his lips and shook her head "you don't have to say anything" and winked.
Sakura almost fainted at what she saw from afar "The- they kissed... Mission accomplished" she declared while sasuke was in a state of shock and naruto's mouth fell open. He was lost for words. He went towards her and hugged her from behind that caused them to freeze for a moment. He savored every second of it- Erza turned around "Kakashi hurry up let's go home, i'm tired" she said dragging him home pulling his hands.
When they reached the house she removed her clothes leaving only her undergarments like she doesn't care that he was right there close to her. Kakashi has nose bleed and almost fainted on the scene that he can only read out from his icha icha book. Erza looked at him "Good night kakashi and went to his room instead on the couch where she usually sleeps. Kakashi went inside the room to get spare pillows and blanket for him to so he can sleep on the sofa. She was lying in his bed peacefully sleeping, eh went in closer to cover her naked body with the blanket but Erza placed her arms around his neck and pulled him towards her causing him to fall on the bed beside her. She is sleeping but her grip is tight. There he was face to face with her. She is really beautiful and she smells nice. He wrapped his hands around her waist and blushed as he felt her skin. Dream come true for him as he slept beside her cuddling her into his arms and he rested his head on her hair and kissed her head as he replays the kiss on his mind "If what you said is true the you might not remember the kiss tomorrow when you wake up" he whispered with a sigh he thinks to himself "Hope beads my skin like dew on spring grass. I feel it radiating in to soothe my blood. If forms such perfect spheres, each one like a tiny world of its own. I can't know for sure that today will be better than yesterday, or if this is time I'll win, but I'm optimistic and I'm willing to take the risk with you, I will open my heart once more I don't care if you return my love just let me love you." and he drifted off to sleep.
