Iruka sighed as he looked down at the warm mug that he held in his hands. He forced a grin on his face as he noticed his mirrored self was frowning. That forced grin disappeared as the steamy brown water, the coffee, rippled. His left hand reached up and gently touched the bottom of his eyes. He pulled his hand back as his index finger touched something wet.

He gently blew at the small drop on his finger. His head turned as he heard a knock. "Iruka-sensei!" Naruto's voice cried out in joy. "Come on! The party is about to start and you don't want to be late, like Kakashi-sensei!" he yelled through the door.

The brown hair sensei chuckled, "Coming Naruto." his voice cracked slightly as he spoke. Within a couple of minutes, he and Naruto were walking down the streets on Konoha. Iruka nodded as he listened to Naruto's endless talking. A smile was on his face as he heard the cheerfulness in his old student's voice.

Before long, they stood before the Uchiha estate. Iruka chuckled as he heard Naruto yelled, "Hey Sasuke-teme! It's cold, open up the door." His chuckling increased as he watched the door open and Sasuke glare at Naruto.

"Come on dobe." Sasuke ordered. His eyes flicked up to Iruka's face, "Hello Iruka-sensei. Merry Christmas." he smirked slightly as he felt Naruto push his way past him. "Dobe, don't break anything." Sasuke ordered as he turned and walked after him.

Iruka shook his head and sighed slightly, "Things never change." he muttered as he stepped inside the house. His eyes widen slightly when he heard a chorus say, "Merry Christmas Iruka-sensei!" he smiled slightly as he noticed his old students sitting around and chatting. "Merry Christmas everyone." he repeated to them.

Hours past as the small party continued. Iruka exchanged words with his students. He learned that it appeared Neji had a small crush on Gaara, Gaara was coming to visit tomorrow, Sakura had gotten over her crush over Sasuke, Sasuke and Naruto were now in a relationship with each other, and many more.

Iruka waved his hand towards the others, "Good night everyone." were his departing words. His eyes blinked as he felt something press against his cheek. His head turned towards where the kiss was from. His eyes widen as he noticed Kakashi-sensei was standing beside him.

Kakashi held his famous Icha Icha book before his face. He gave Iruka a small wave and pointed up, towards the ceiling.

Iruka raised and eyebrow and looked up. He looked back at the Copy-nin, "There is not" he was cut off as he felt a gentle press of Kakashi's mask lips on his.

Kakashi pulled back and looked up, "Strange, I could have sworn I had seen a misltoe up there." he shrugged at his 'mistake', "oh well. Merry Christmas Iruka-sense." he muttered as he walked pasted the scar nose teacher and into the house.

Iruka blushed and brought a hand up to his lips. His eyes flickered to where Kakashi had stood. "Lying bastard." he muttered with a grin.
