Chapter One
A silvered haired man was sleeping soundly in his bed. Said man was awoken violently from his sleep as his cell phone started blaring out the soft rhythmic tones of his ringtone. The man sighed and rolled over once again as his cell phone continued to ring. Rolling his eyes, his hand searches for the ringing device. Once he had found it and clicked the answer button, he uttered a shaky hello as he cleared his throat from the vestiges of sleep. His only reply was a voice screaming "Get here now, Kakashi!" Before the man, now identified as Kakashi, could even respond the line went dead and the sound of a dial tone filled his ear.
He was awake now as he turned over and buried his head back under his pillow. It was Monday which meant he knew why 'that man' was calling. He had 'overslept again.' Quite frankly he was tired of going to his job day in and day out, his only 'off' day being Sunday. He always gave his best at what he did, priding himself in his ability. Yet as the days grew long and he only seemed to be saddled with more and more work, Kakashi was quickly reaching the end of his rope. He was getting fed up with just how little he seemed to be making in comparison with the vast amount of work he had to put it. He had a much easier way to make money.
Finally, he was weary of keeping his true thoughts locked inside of a cage deep within in his heart. But that was neither here nor there. He had a job to do and he was probably, no he was, going to be yelled at for being late. So he rolled back over and stood up, glancing around his room as the sun peaked in through the blinds.
As he sat up and looked around his room he thought to himself. 'I really should clean up around here at some point.' For scattered across his wood floor was loose bits of paper, some of his books, both job related and personal, and his laundry. Kakashi glanced back at his phone, his thoughts drifting to the caller on the other line. The caller was clearly angry but Kakashi just could not bring himself to give a rat's ass this morning. He had thought he set an alarm last night but he was wrong. However, he was already late, so why rush getting ready?
But one could only put off going to work for so long. With that thought in mind Kakashi finally drug himself out of bed. He cursed as he fell back. The poor man really should clean as he had stubbed his toe against one of the books strewn about his dirty room. Standing back up, much more carefully this time, Kakashi slipped on his favorite pair of black jeans, a white button up shirt. Completing the ensemble was a blood red tie and a pressed black jacket. Taking a moment to look himself over in his mirror, his lips formed a cocky smirk. 'Say what you want about my attitude, but I look good' were Kakashi's thoughts as he slipped on his trademark mask. He pushed his feet into his shoes and laced them up before walking out his door. After giving his room one last look over from the outside, to make sure he had not forgotten anything, he closed the door and locked it.
Shuffling up to his truck, a black two thousand and four Toyota Tacoma, Kakashi opens the door and slides in letting his head hit the steering wheel as he closes the door. Kakashi breathed out a sigh as he jammed the keys into the ignition. But low and behold, as if this day just could not get any worse, the damn thing would not just turn over. This was in stark contrast to the night before when he drove home just fine! Kakashi slammed his fist against the wheel before he got out, muttering choice words the entire time. Now he would have to walk. Thankfully it was just a mile away but it was still an annoyance. Once that quickly compounded by the ringing of his cell phone again. It was 'him' again. Kakashi choose to ignore it ashy he began the twenty-minute walk to his job. Twenty minutes till he had to teach at Konoha High School.
Twenty-five minutes later, Kakashi lazily walked into the classroom without a care in the world. He walked as if he was not thirty minutes late and setting a bad example because of it. He turned to face the class. His class was small, all things considered. This class only had fifteen students but just under half of them were clan heirs. Up front was Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, and Sakura Haruno. Behind them were Kiba Inuzaka, Hinata Hyuga, Shino Aburame. Following those three were Ino Yamanka, Choji Akamichi, and Shikamura Nara. The second to last row was filled by Neji Hyuga, Rock Lee, Tenten Higurashi. The last row was filled with the three transfer students, the Sand Siblings. They were Gaara no Sabaku, Kankuro no Sabaku, and Temari no Sabaku.
Kakashi had one hand behind his head as he smirked at all of them and gave his trademark excuse to them after walking to his desk. "Sorry but the reason I am late is because I got lost on the path of life." This was about as well received as you might think. For on the left of Kakashi stood a very irate man who was currently in the process of screaming "THAT EXCUSE STOPPED WORKING SIX YEARS AND EIGHT MONTHS AGO." Kakashi merely blinked with the rest of the class who had stopped what they were doing. Kakashi adopted a sly smirk turning to the irate man on his left before saying. "I didn't know you cared enough to keep track, Iruka." This prompted a cough from his far right. Said cough came from a very prim and proper woman who was wearing a peach colored suit. Her red eyes sparkled with mirth at Kakashi's expense. Black hair framed her face as Kakashi shook his head and his thoughts turned dark for a second. 'This is going to be a long year.' This thought was echoed by one other person in the room. Iruka looked around the room and shook his head, his thoughts drifted back to how his day had gone up to this point.
The alarm sitting on the bedside table blinked in rhythm. The numbers reading out the time. Six twenty in the morning. Ten minutes before the man staring at the clock needed to be up. He reached over and shut it off. He was already awake, no need to hear the incessant ringing of his alarm. In all honesty, Iruka had been up for a few hours now, being it was the first day of school and sleep was hard to come by for him. He quite enjoyed his job and returning always made sleep difficult.
Iruka felt a small smile grace his face as he thought about his class and his hopes were already high. His thoughts and joy were dampened slightly when he thought of his fellow teachers, well one teacher in particular. Well there was no sense in staying in bed any longer were Iruka's thoughts as he got out of bed and went to make breakfast.
After he finished eating he began the process of dressing himself for school. He decided to wear his grey suit with a white button up undershirt. He walked into his bathroom to stand in front of the mirror as he did up his hair and tie. He smirked a bit to himself, hoping that his attire would complement the head teacher's though the thought was gone as quick as it came.
Iruka unlocked the chain around his bike before lifting himself onto the seat and heading to school. He enjoyed the outdoors and did not mind a bit of exercise before school. It was only fifteen minutes later that he pulled up in front of the school, Konoha High. Iruka chained his bike back up in the designated spot and headed inside to prepare the classroom for the day.
As Iruka sat in his desk he was greeted by the sounds of children filling the halls. This year he would let the kids pick where they sat though they would more than likely pick the same spots they had last year.
Following the kids were the teachers. First came in Asuma, the science teacher. Asuma was wearing an open suit jacket with a red tie covering his white button up undershirt. This was followed by black slacks and black shoes with a hint of a white sock poking out under the hem of the slacks. Next to enter the class was Kurenai, who was the language arts teacher and his current girlfriend. She was wearing a white overcoat with a white dress shirt that was tucked into a plaid skirt followed by black shoes. Next was supposed to be Kakashi but after a minute Iruka correctly guessed that the man had overslept, again. So Iruka tried his cell as the class began to get rowdy from lack of direction.
Of course there was to be no answer, it would have been a miracle if Kakashi had answered the first time. Letting out an internal sigh, he took this moment to gaze around the room. His attention was immediately draw to the students right in front of him, Naruto and Sasuke. Those two were once again getting into another argument and Iruka sighed out loud. Those two really needed to ease up on each other.
Iruka looked back at his phone and tried Kakashi's cell one more time. This time the call was answered and Iruka said in a very loud and pointed voice. "Get here now!" Iruka noticed that the class had fallen silent as their teacher's outburst and Kurenai simply mouthed 'Kakashi?' Iruka nodded subtly to her before chuckling and rubbing the back of his head as he faced the class. "Sorry about that" Iruka said. Well now they just had to wait for Kakashi to finally show up and take roll.
A half hour later the man in question finally decided to grace the class with his presence as he lazily walked in the classroom door and gave his trademark excuse. This was followed by some banter between Iruka and Kakashi.
Iruka sighed to himself again as Kakashi began to take roll. He thought to himself 'This is going to be a long year.' Unbeknownst to Iruka, Kakashi had the same thought just seconds
