Crawl Home to Her (гет)

Naruto remembers being young and reckless and loud, more passion than good sense or skill. He also remembers Kakashi-sensei, her gentle touch guiding his taijutsu form, or offering a hand to pull him up off the grass after a well-deserved break. It had never felt like this, and he wished he could have known then, even as a child, how to appreciate it, but he was a child and meant only for childish things, and there was nothing childish about the feelings that gripped him now.
