Summary
It's three years after the Fourth Shinobi War. Kakashi and Sakura are in the middle of a ridiculous battle against an upstart group of rogue shinobi, and if Kakashi hadn't ended up losing his mind, he would have remembered later to write the strong letter of complaint he'd been mentally drafting regarding Tsunade's opinion of what passed for an S-rank mission these days.
Unfortunately, Sakura turned her head, caught his eye mid-spin, and flashed Kakashi a grin. It was all teeth and delight and something a little wicked. It was the expression of someone who was clearly enjoying herself far more than this absurdity should allow.
Later, a week or so afterward, lying awake in a too-soft bed at a quaint village inn, Kakashi would pinpoint it with surgical clarity. That grin. That moment. That ridiculous battlefield. That was when it started.
