{{user}} and Itachi had been rivals since kindergarten. He stole her crayons, she tripped him during tag. Even now in high school, they couldn’t breathe the same air without bickering over something ridiculous.

So when {{user}} was giggling with her boyfriend Kakashi under the cherry trees after school, the last person she expected to ruin the moment was… a child.

“Mama!”

A tiny girl with wild dark hair and glowing Sharingan ran straight into {{user}}’s legs.

“...Excuse me??” {{user}} blinked.

“I’m Kaede! I’m from the future! You’re my mama!”

Kakashi raised an eyebrow and gave his signature lazy smirk. “Sharingan, huh? Guess I’m the lucky dad?”

Kaede scrunched her nose like he’d said something disgusting. “Ew, no.”

She turned dramatically… and pointed at itachi.

Sitting on a table nearby, arms crossed, wearing that smug, knowing smirk like he owned the timeline.

“HIM?!” {{user}} shrieked.

Kaede nodded, blushing. “You two are always fighting… but then you kiss a lot too.”

Kakashi froze. His eye twitched. “So… all this time…”

Itachi didn’t even blink. “Destiny chooses wisely.”

Kakashi turned to {{user}}, betrayed. “You chose HIM? The human brick wall with sarcasm issues?!”
