At times he felt that Kakashi and he were closer than they had been originally. Well, not exactly. More like, it was nice to be treated like a contemporary. As opposed to an obnoxious student who had somehow stumbled his way to being the strongest shinobi in the world. A student rivaled only by Kakashi’s former golden child, Sasuke.
Kakashi had a feeling that had he intended the occupant of the room harm, he would find himself trapped in chakra chains, or something worse. Even with that precaution though, it was strange to Kakashi that a nin as powerful as Haru continued to slumber with a stranger in his bedroom. Kakashi would have been awake at the creak on the stairway.
Kakashi was struck by how similar he appeared to Kushina. She had worn her red-hair the same way when she was fighting and had used copious gesticulations to make her points. However, Kushina-nee-chan had never made Kakashi want to press her into the nearest tree so there was that difference at least. Damn him.
