"Kakashi, stop struggling! Let me see!"
Obito tore at Kakashi's last piece of mask, completely oblivious to the countless indirect kisses he had already given Kakashi.
Pressed down by Obito, Kakashi's face felt numb. Tears welled in his eyes and trickled down his face. His heart was dead. This was a sleepless night, during which he had suffered Obito's frenzied torment. He stopped struggling, letting nature take its course.
"Kakashi? Why aren't you moving anymore? This makes me feel so passive!"
Obito ripped off Kakashi's final mask, finally revealing his fair and handsome face. There was no birthmark!
He was quite handsome. Why did Kakashi always cover it up?
Obito observed Kakashi's face closely. Apart from some red and swollen areas, his face was perfectly normal. He couldn't understand why he always wore a mask!
Kakashi mumbled, "Look, look, do whatever you want. My heart is already dead!"
"That won't do! Kakashi, how can you have no spirit at all? To be defeated by me so easily? You're too much of a disgrace!"
Obito released Kakashi and shook his limp body, acting as if he didn't acknowledge the outcome of this fight. He couldn't claim victory unfairly!
"Kakashi, cheer up! Let's call this a draw! We'll fight again next time!"
"What? Again? Just kill me then!"
Kakashi rolled his lifeless eyes and fell straight onto the bed. He was too ashamed to face anyone.
"Did he fall asleep because the fight with me was too tiring? Kakashi's stamina is really poor. I'll have to ask Might Guy to teach Kakashi more about physical training when we get back to the village!"
Seeing Kakashi asleep, Obito didn't wake him up. He had only wanted to prove a point, and everything else was an excuse. Now that his goal was achieved, he was satisfied.
Ah, time for bed!
It had truly been a fulfilling day!
...
The next morning, Lin Yu, full of energy, dressed and approached the door of the adjacent room. He knocked lightly.
"Obito, Kakashi, come out for breakfast. Hurry up with your honeymoon trip. We won't have this much time once we get back to the village!"
"Huh? Are they still sleeping?"
Lin Yu knocked for a long time with no response and felt something was amiss. Could these two have...?
As expected! Lin Yu pushed the door open and saw the two of them "hugging" each other in their sleep on the bed. Obito had his arm around Kakashi's neck, occasionally sniffing, looking like he was having a sweet dream.
In contrast, Kakashi was covered in cold sweat, his expression contorted as if he had a nightmare, desperately trying to break free from the devil's grip but unable to escape its claws, his small face pale.
Alas! How did Kakashi's mask disappear? Had they already become this intimate?
Lin Yu was surprised. He hadn't expected 'Brother Tu' to be so effective! He had already broken through Kakashi's defenses!
Even the most difficult obstacle, the mask, had been torn off. Kakashi would have no secrets from Obito!
Well! Congratulations on the couple becoming official!
"Hey, hey, it's time to get up! The sun is already out. You two should behave yourselves and put on your pants!"
"What! I'm not wearing pants?!"
Kakashi jolted awake from his nightmare and checked to see if anything on his person was missing.
Phew, good! Nothing was missing!
It was then that Kakashi realized Obito was embracing him. He immediately let out a yell and flung Obito away.
"Ah! Obito, you scoundrel, what foolish things did you do last night!"
Kakashi suddenly remembered that Obito had torn his mask off last night. He quickly covered his face and took out a mask from his backpack to put it back on.
"Kakashi, why do you always wear that mask? It's bad for your development!"
Lin Yu had always been puzzled by this question. Why did Kakashi wear a mask? He wasn't unattractive; quite the opposite, he was quite handsome. No wonder Obito and Might Guy were interested in Kakashi.
They had both seen through Kakashi's disguise!
"Hmph! It's just my personal habit."
Kakashi didn't answer directly. He walked past Obito, who was still dreaming, and said, "I'm going to have breakfast first."
After Kakashi left, Lin Yu grabbed Obito and shook him. "Still sleeping? Your pillow is running away."
"Mmm..."
Obito groggily opened his eyes and looked around in confusion. "Where's Kakashi? Why isn't Kakashi here? Huh! Teacher Lin Yu, why are you here?"
Lin Yu put Obito down with a huff and said, "It's morning. By the way, how was last night? Did you succeed?"
As soon as he heard Lin Yu ask about last night, Obito instantly sobered up, his face filled with excitement. "Teacher Lin Yu, I succeeded! I finally defeated Kakashi!"
"Oh? How did you defeat him?"
"Kakashi fainted from my attack!"
"Uh... how many times did you kiss Kakashi?"
"I don't remember... Damn it!"
Obito only realized it after a whole night had passed. He had indirectly kissed Kakashi again!
Wuwuwu, Kakashi, you vixen!
No wonder Obito felt his lips were numb when he woke up. It was because he had kissed too much last night!
Damn it!
"Let's go, Obito. We're going to soak in a hot spring later!"
What?! A hot spring together!
Obito couldn't quite accept it. Although they were both men, after what happened with Kakashi yesterday, going to a hot spring together today felt a bit... awkward!
Obito was conflicted!
Lin Yu turned around and saw Obito standing frozen, his face alternating between red and serious. Had he broken 'Brother Tu'?
...
After breakfast, Lin Yu suggested that Obito and Kakashi go to a hot spring together. As expected, Kakashi strongly objected, looking as though he would rather starve than go to the hot spring.
Obito could only hide his expression, which was a mix of disappointment and relief, and shove rice balls into his mouth.
Since the hot spring plan was off, the three of them spent the day exploring the town and bought many local specialties.
Evening.
"Are you two sure you don't want to stay another night?"
"Certain! We're going back to Konoha now. I don't want to stay here for another moment!"
Kakashi, with his backpack on, was ready to depart. If Lin Yu weren't their supervising teacher, he would have slipped away on his own!
He would absolutely not share a room with Obito again, not in this lifetime!
"Alas, I wanted to play for a few more days."
Obito, munching on a local specialty from the Land of Hot Water, seemed a little unsatisfied.
"Obito, you idiot, it's still wartime. How can you only think about eating, drinking, and having fun!"
"Oh right, there's still a war going on. I was too tired last night, I almost forgot about it!"
"Obito, you..."
Kakashi really wanted to punch Obito right now, but he had no reason to. He could only turn away in anger, no longer looking at Obito.
Uchiha Obito, all he did was make him angry!
"Be careful on your way. Remember to report back to me. Tell them you were attacked by bandits and all your money was looted. Ask Nara Shikaku if you can get some reimbursement!"
Lin Yu sternly instructed Obito. Kakashi would definitely not say this; he could only count on this cunning brat Obito!
"Don't worry, Teacher Lin Yu! I'll report it!" Obito patted his slightly deflated pocket and agreed with a nod.
After seeing off Kakashi and Obito, Lin Yu's smile faded, and he looked north. He hadn't come out this time just for a hot spring.
Time for the real business!
