Iruka sighed and stretched as he rose from his bed one icy day in Konoha. The night before, a snow storm decided to blanket the village in a foot of pure white snow. He reached over to his night stand and grabbed his alarm clock. 10:34? Damn… It had been weeks since the last time the teacher slept in so late, especially with his busy days at the academy and in the mission room. But with the academy now closed for the holidays and after being forced to take a much needed break from the mission room, Iruka could easily do what he wanted to.
"Rise and shine!" He could have if it wasn't for an annoying jounin poking his head through the window and looking down on him.
"Not now, Kakashi…" Iruka moaned as he turned and wound the covers over him. Unfortunately for him, Kakashi would not have a word with it. Unfortunately for him, Kakashi also was having a vacation break and wanted to spend every waking minute of it with his lover.
"Come on, Iruka! It's a perfect morning! Let's-"
"No."
"But-"
"No! Now let me sleep!" Iruka insisted, burying his head into his pillow. Kakashi just smiled down upon him and smirked a little.
"If you insist…" Kakashi whispered. Swiftly, the jounin hopped into the chuunin's bedroom and jumped his bed with his lover. And just as fast as he did that, he wrapped his bitter cold arms around the other. As soon as skin made contact with skin, Iruka let out a chilling, high pitched scream.
"Kakashi!" he screamed. "You're freezing!"
"I know," Kakashi said, grinning. "But you wanted to sleep, so I figured I wanted to sleep with you!"
"Well, that won't be happening anytime soon," Iruka moaned as he rolled out of bed. Kakashi continued to grin, his plan a success. Iruka went off to the bathroom and clean himself off. At the sound of the shower running, Kakashi decided to get out of bed and follow Iruka. "Don't you even dare!" Iruka roared, stopping Kakashi dead in his tracks. It still amazed the jounin how the other could predict his actions. Kakashi just stood outside, leaning against the wall and just let his imagination run wild. Iruka came out moments later, already dressed. He ran the towel through his damp, brown locks as he peered around, looking for a pervert jounin.
"Boo!" Kakashi said, poking the chuunin from behind. Iruka jumped a little and turned around.
"Kakashi! Don't-" The man stopped in mid-sentence as a pair of frosty lips latched onto his warm lips. The kiss was short and sweet, leaving the chuunin wanting more.
"Don't what?" Kakashi asked, smirking. Iruka just glared back at him. He sighed as he turned toward the kitchen to fix himself some breakfast. From his pantry, he took out two pieces of bread and placed them in a nearby toaster.
"Do you want anything?" he asked. Kakashi shook his head.
"No, I'm satisfied now thanks to that kiss," the jounin sneered. Iruka blushed as he leaned back upon the kitchen counter, taking a bite of a fresh piece of toast.
"So what are you doing here, Kakashi?" Iruka asked after he swallowed.
"To be with you. What else?" Kakashi replied. "How often do we have a vacation, let alone together?" Iruka had to agree with him on that. Kakashi's busy life as a jounin made keeping the relationship strong hard. He would be gone for days and weeks on end, leaving Iruka to worry. True, Iruka knew what to expect if anything happened and knew the dangers involved, but he couldn't stand just to worry a little. And sometimes, after his missions, either he was too injured and was on bed rest or Iruka was busy teaching the kids or filing missions. So when the two had any time together for themselves, they would cherish them. Iruka finished his breakfast and walked over to Kakashi. He wrapped his arms around the other's neck and kissed him back.
"So… what do you want to do?"
~*~~*~~*~
The two decided to take a stroll through the woods, walking slowly hand in hand, taking in the beauty of the scenery. All around them were many evergreens, each covered with pound upon pound of snow upon their branches. The wind would blow from time to time. Iruka snuggled more into his scarf, only for Kakashi to notice and to bring his arm around the chuunin. Iruka slightly blushed, but eventually leaned into the embrace. They did not say a word but the feeling was mutual enough.
Suddenly, a soft thud came crashing down on the jounin's head. Iruka looked up and tried his hardest to repress his laughter. On instinct, the jounin drew out a kunai and brought it close to his chest, standing defensively. Abruptly, another thud came drumming down upon Kakashi's head. Unable to stop himself, Iruka let out a lively laugh. Kakashi glanced over at Iruka, curious as to know what was so funny. Suddenly, a cold tear ran upon the jounin's face. Kakashi sighed as he moved his hand up and brushed away the snow in his wild, silvery mane. The great copy nin was bested by a pile of snow that seemingly fell down from a branch high up from a nearby tree. All the while, Iruka could not stop laughing at the sight. Immediately, Iruka stopped laughing as another soft thud hit his face. The man quickly gasped at the sudden cold feeling and turned around. There was Kakashi, tossing up and catching another snowball in hand.
"So you think it was that funny? Tell me, what do you think about a chuunin getting beat up by about a few dozen snowballs? Is that funny?" Kakashi grinned while Iruka froze. Their seemingly quiet stroll down through the trees turned into a heated snowball fight! Kakashi again threw a snowball at the chuunin. This time, Iruka was ready for it and easily dodged it. Swiftly, he scooped up some snow nearby, crumbled it up, and sent it flying back at the jounin. Kakashi, naturally, dodged it as well. Both men chased each other through the forest, each using their skills to hit the other with a snowball. The game went on for what seemed like hours. Quickly, Iruka tossed a snowball at Kakashi and made contact, but unexpectedly, Kakashi fell to the ground and lied silently. Iruka laughed on.
"Alright, Kakashi. I think it's time we go inside. I'm starting to freeze out here" Iruka said, tired from the game and laughter. But the man didn't get a response. "Kakashi?" Iruka stopped and walked over the jounin, still lying in the snow. "Kakashi, are you ok?" Iruka stooped down and tried to shake the man awake. "Kakashi! Wake up! Kaka-" Once again, Iruka was caught off caught by a kiss from his lover. But this kiss was different. Kakashi already grabbed Iruka by the back of his neck and flipped them so now Kakashi is staring down at him. Iruka opened his mouth to protest but was stopped again by the pale man's lips. Kakashi took advantage of his lover's open mouth and his tongue went in. Both tongues clashed and danced together in a heated frenzy. Only did it stop when both men needed air desperately. Iruka, with glazed eyes, stared up at Kakashi, his face flushed.
"Still freezing, Iruka?" Kakashi whispered. Iruka just grinned as he yanked his lover by his scarf back down for another kiss.
This was going to be one hell of a winter vacation.
A/N: Get the drumming reference? This is how the rest will turn out for each day, creatively hinting out each day. Sorry it's a little late for the first day. But I hope to continue it until Christmas Day!~
Keep in mind, this is un-betaed due this being a little fanfic holiday gift for everyone, including my beta readers.
