Love Me Dead, Or, The Evening Copy Nin Kakashi Met A Real Life Vampire
As you can see from the title, the requester wanted a nice, funny story. She didn't get it.
He turned away. "Immortality doesn't interest me," he told her dismissively. Even her pitch, full of seductive, sensual phrases, coupled with her wanton body language, couldn't make living to see everyone he ever knew die sound enticing.
For Kakashi, immortality would be about the worst fate he could suffer, and I think he knows it. I imagine Kakashi as a vampire would be him serving Konoha and serving Konoha and serving Konoha and serving Konoha, and then suddenly, when everyone he knew are nothing but myths, it would suddenly become apparent that he's insane.
I think Kakashi knows this.
He stared out over the dance floor, keeping his sole original eye focused on the dancing bodies, and not any of the couples tucked into the shadows around the edge of the room, moving to a more primal, private beat than anything that was being pounded out of the speakers.
Kakashi trying not to know..... also, it's his original eye, so I image he's hoping he can forget this.
The vampire rose on tip toes, wrapped her arms around him from behind, and whispered in his ear, "You could take her with you."
He didn't respond.
"Think about it," she breathed, "You could have her, spend an eternity taking her in every manner you wish."
...And vampire is smart enough to know what would tempt him... I feel like this is a kinda lame commentary, in that I think just about everything is pretty explicit within the text.
Against his will, Kakashi couldn't help but gaze at that corner, that particular couple: the Uchiha's hands fisted in her bright hair, restraining her as he daintily touched his lips to hers. Sakura was nothing so controlled: she kissed him delicately back, but her fingers dug into the sides of his rear, pulling him closer, undulating her hips against his.
I see Sasuke as a rather cold fish, sexually, and think that he could never satisfy Sakura emotionally or keep her warm between the sheets. That said, I think if Sakura got in a relationship with him, she would never just take what she wants, and would try to be the girl (she thinks he) wants. Their body language says it all, right here.
If Sakura had been in his arms and half so responsive, Kakashi would not still be in an obnoxiously loud bar.
His heartbeat quickened at the thought; Sakura moving against him, lust and love and youth in every cell of her body, every scrap of her self. He wondered if she could warm his soul the way she must Sasuke's.
And this is the difference between Sasuke and Kakashi: in Sakura, Kakashi would understand just how lucky he is, and what he's gained, and reciprocate, while Sasuke wouldn't.
"I'm not interested," Kakashi repeated, the words tasting like graveyard ashes in his mouth.
Nice gothic imagery to end on. Kakashi is interested, and way too moral to ever say yes.
