Chapter Text
There had been five hired nin guarding you when you came to. Blindfolded as you may, they made no effort to hide their chakara, not that a Sensory type like you wouldn't pick up on them regardless. Two of them were ninjutsu types, one a medic nin and the remaining were interrogators. Scattered through the rest of the building were a few dozen traps and at least one hundred nin, rank Chuunin and above. You wouldn't be breaking out anytime soon...
You should have accepted the ANBU guards Kakashi tried to assign to your mission, but as always you were stubborn and believed you and your team would manage. You would have managed if they hadn't captured your genin students, you had to surrender to save them. Hopefully at least one of them was responsible enough to send for help, rather than try and save you themselves.
The nightmarish creatures disappeared as the "interrogator" released her Genjutsu and her accomplice stopped kicking your stomach. They seemed disturbed that you stopped your charade of screaming, maybe more so by the ridiculous smile that went from ear to ear. They were screaming at you as to why you were so happy, you refused to answer. They started to argue amongst themselves and the medic nin went about healing your injuries.
It was much easier to understand their words after the ringing in your ears faded and the room stopped turning. Breathing still hurt, but as far as you could tell you didn't have any broken ribs. You remained still to minimise the pain but the barrage of violence left your entire torso with a numb stinging as though it was on fire.
When they finally noticed the significant flares of Chakara and the falling of their comrades, all but the medic and one guard remained in the room with you. She ordered him to stop treating you and wait until the intruders were dealt with. It suited you just fine as you rapidly started to heal your injuries with your Kekkei Genkai healing jutsu. You finished healing everything seriously and wanted to start your escape when they caught on and with a simple strike they knocked you out.
You slowly become aware of dull sounds and the smell of your dried blood. As the noise grows louder what feels like an electrical current sears through your head. As you try to make sense of what your senses are telling you, you test your chakra for use. The flow is somewhat unstable after being unconscious but not disabled.
The sound of fighting is clear now and your heart skips a beat at the feeling of a familiar presence. You slip your way out of your restraints as Kakashi takes down the last standing hired nin. With your blindfold still on you run into his arms and let out a cry of alarm when he nearly collapses. You sit him down and with the little strength he has left he removes your blindfold and meets your look of concern with one of his characteristic eye smiles.
"Are you okay?" You try to hide your panic. "Why did you come alone, you idiot!" You blame your light sensitive eyes for your tears, but you know that's not the reason.
He chuckles and tries not to flinch as you place your hands over the deep cuts across his chest and start healing. "I should be asking you that, you were the captive one." You ignore the blood on your hands and your persistent headache, you can't lose him now.
When you move on to his nonlethal wounds you break the silence. "You're normally so cool and composed, I'll kill you myself if you ever do something so reckless again, Hatake!" His only responses is to keep admiring you with the smug look of his.
"I didn't want anything to happen to the future Mrs.Hatake." He chimes, feigning innocence.
"Such a lousy proposal." You pull his arm and pop his shoulder back into place a little roughly. "Maybe they should call you Nekketsu kakashi instead."
He carefully moves the relocated arm."You love my lousy flirting." He says and pulls out a ring as silver as his hair.
You halt for a moment, he'd actually planned this "You almost died, now's not the time." You carefully pick up the ring and find your name engraved within.
"Is that a yes?" He asks excitedly, an unmistakable glint in his eyes.
You pull him up by the collar of his chainmail shirt and kiss him hungrily."Of course, Bakakashi." You whisper when your lips part.
