A.N. Hope you enjoy! Don't own Naruto, there's yaoi...you know the drill...^_^

So what? I'm crushing on a jounin. A legendary one. Everybody does!

Chapter One : Why?

Why do you keep doing this to me? I bet it's obvious for you that this idiot likes you. But do you have to play with me? I know I blush every time I see you or when our fingers brush when you hand a mission report. But why do you have to show up at the academy? You have no business there! And the bar last night? I know you're straight Hatake! Why do you play me then!

"What are you brooding about sensei?" Iruka was startled out of his thoughts with the object of his thoughts standing too close to him.

Have you ever heard of something called 'personal space'? "Nothing Kakashi-san. Just some matters on the academy." He answered as he sat down on his table with the new coffee cup in hand.

"Oh? So no lover then?" ...? Is it amusing for you?

"No Kakashi-san, like I said, academy stuff. Are you here to hand in your" he glanced at the clock pointedly "two-days late mission report?" Iruka smiled sweetly at the jounin who was giving him his trademark crescent smile.

"Sensei I see you keep track of when I come in. I'm flattered. Missed me much?" And the silver haired man leaned in, mere inches between their faces.

Iruka blushed and quickly pulled back. "Um…report?"

"Why so serious all the time sensei? I'm sure some relaxing time would do you some good. Or a lover perhaps. Regular sex could help." Iruka was imitating a tomato by then. Can we pass the 'lover' subject already! And how blunt are you, discussing intimate matters like that in public…yes, you read porn in public, right. And anyway, like you care! You wouldn't care if I went and got myself killed on a mission! You'd just toy with the next chuunin manning the office!

"Maybe I can help you with that. I can set you up with a kunoichi if you'd like?" He offered as he handed a scroll and Iruka gaped. Seriously? He sent a curse to all deities to exist. It's not enough the man I like makes fun of me every chance he gets, now he's trying to set me up with a woman? I think I'm becoming an atheist. No Satanist. Yes, I'd like to try sacrificing some people to satan since it seems he's the one running the business. Maybe then he'd spare me some mercy.

"I-uhm very thoughtful of you Kakashi-san but" he decided to come clean, and even if he really didn't know and was ONLY making fun of him without knowing about the crush, he'd maybe back off and leave him in his misery. "I'm interested in men."

"Oh. What a shame. She was dying for a date with you." Kakashi didn't look surprised and only gave the infamous smile.

Iruka finished reading the scroll and decided it was decipherable at home and stamped.

"You're good to go Kakashi-san. Thank you for your hard work." And Iruka gave his automatic sweet smile he gave everyone.

"Okay then, ja ne!" And Kakashi puffed out of the missions office.

"You know you gotta give up on him, right? Everyone knows he's straight –hell he reads straight porn all the time!" Iruka looked up to meet his friend's gaze.

"Yes Kotetsu, but logic isn't always the ruling element on the matters of heart."

"I know just what you need! He just gave me an idea! A set up date! Yeah! You need someone else to make you forget, Ru, so" Kotetsu shook a finger to prevent him from using that breath he sucked in "no objections, I'm setting you up with someone."

Iruka sighed, defeated. "Who?"

"I don't know yet but trust me, it'll do good for you!"

Iruka sighed again. This was going to be a long week.
