A/n: Yay, another IruKaka fic :) I am SO in love with this couple it's not even funny. My other fav yaoi pairing that I love so much is TobiDei (before I found out Tobi was Madara. That KILLED me!) and GenRai. Between them and KakaIru, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna explode from so much cutness and that only happens when I play Kingdom Hearts XD I can't wait to write fics on that. R&R!

Umino Iruka sighed as he watched his best friend, and the high school's bad boy, Hatake Kakashi, threw the football in the air, as the other players tried to catch it.

It wasn't unusual to catch them two together; Like Iruka's two best friends, Izumo and Kotetsu, they were joined by the hip since they were little. Having parents that knew each other, the young Iruka and the older Kakashi had hit it off right away, though, it did take some time to get to know each other, and since then, the two couldn't be kept apart.

And it's weird, considering that Iruka had this feeling they would have dispise each other hadn't been for their parents.

Anyways, back to the story. Yeah, the two had been best friends since they were little, and had never grown apart.

Until recently.

When they started to grow up, and when they hit High School, things changed. They changed. Kakashi was now popular with everyone, and Iruka was usually left alone somewhere in the dusk. Oh, don't be fooled; Kakashi cares about Iruka enough to never leave him out of the loop, no matter how much he'd hated it, and Iruka never complained. It's just that...

Well...

Iruka's feelings for Kakashi...changed as well. When Kakashi started to work out, Iruka had notice, and felt all the blood rushed down south. Embarrassed, Iruka tries to avoid Kakashi whenever he catches a glance of pale skin and muscle, and hope for the best.

But it wasn't phyiscal attraction either.

It was everything Kakashi did that drove Iruka up the wall; from the small touches, to pulling Iruka away because Kakashi had found something interesting. It made Iruka insane, knowing he shouldn't be feeling this for his best friend, especially when said best friend isn't gay. Iruka found out the hard way when he'd saw him making out with the school's number one tomboy, Anko. Shivers of disgust ran up his spine, and it took everything in Iruka's power to not run up to them and slap both of them. Anko, for kissing his Kakashi, and for Kakashi for letting it happen. But Iruka knew better. Kakashi was now the recent popular bad boy of the school whilst Iruka was still in the 'unworthy to mention' crowd.

Iruka sighed.

It didn't take a genius to figure out that Iruka had fallen in love with his best friend. Even Kotetsu had pointed it out when they were alone. The only person who didn't know was probably Kakashi himself, something Iruka was planning to change. He'd always tell himself he will tell him, that Kakashi will know, but every time he did, he'd chicken'd out.

No more of that. He thought, determinedly. I will tell him before the end of the school year! I will, I will, I-

"Hey, Iruka, are you okay? You look a little hot." Kakashi asked, placing a hand on his forehead. Iruka's blush, the one that been on his face the moment Kakashi walked up to him, grew.

Am doomed.

A/n: I hope you guys like it :) R&R please!
