Oh... oh dear! o//////o

I have only had this story up for less than a day, and ALREADY I have had 6 reveiws, 7 story alerts, and 128 veiws!!!! It even made my jaw hang open for real! I have never had a story so popular!

I thank you all very very much! -big bow- And to show you all how much I thank you... I will personally answer the first six reveiws for chapter one here!

Iruka: Oh great... here we go. -rolls eyes-

To CuriousDreamWeaver!: Thank you for the first review! I wrote the story in the first place because I thought it was a hilarious situation that could happen! I also personally look forward to how I end this marvelous story!

To Adiji-Sensei!: YOU are absolutely awsome for replying!

Iruka:... she is using way to many exclaimation marks. Either the pride has gone to her head or she is sugar high again.

Author: It t'was only 12 donuts with sprinkles! Silence you!

Anyways...

To new moongirl!: I wish I could change the settings, but sadly I do not know how to change it so anonymous people can reply. If I could do that though, I most certainly would!

To Mo de Aries!: Psaaah! Of course Iruka accepted it! There would be no story if he said 'Uhhh... no.' !!! And trust me. There are going to go very... far let's just say, to convince the other to pull out of the marridge. -evil grin-

To J.M.Captein!: I am glad you think this is great! I think it is great! THE ENTIRE WORLD IS GREATTTTT! -good gai pose-Thank you for the review!

To xwolfdevilx!: Yes! Go Ruka Chan! Show him who is boss! No more taking Kakashi's 'Ima gunna tease Iruka' crap! XD Chaaaaaa!

And now for the disclaimer! Nerf!

Iruka: -sigh- This story that you are reading was in fact written by Chippy sensei, though they are NOT her characters. We belong to Kishimoto sensei, (thank gods) and will for the rest of our lives. Until all our books are burnt, and we are wiped from existance. That is all.

Author: I plan on making this chapter a long one... since I just really like where the story is going! I like fewer longer chapter, rather than short chapters yet a lot of them. So here you go!


Finally Home. Time to settle this thing out. After the 'proposal', everyone in the mission room asked if they were going to start living to together. Sweet and Innocent!Iruka blushed, and with a sweet and innocent little smile said he had been thinking about that and talking it out with Kakashi, and that it was not a bad idea. So EVERYONE in the mission room proceeded to help with moving, taking ALL of Iruka's personal belongings to Kakashi's house. The only thing that stayed in Iruka's house was furniture and anything Kakashi did not already have. So Iruka walked home with Kakashi, fake grin plastered on the entire time.

'Don't pull that look-at-me-I-am-so-sweet-and-innocent look with me Iruka sensei... I know what you are thinking. You are not going to fool me though.' thought Kakashi, as they finally got to the door of his house. He had held Iruka's hand the entire way home, since they had been followed by people congratulating them. He had to keep up the act until he could convince Iruka to tell everyone they decided not to get married after all. Once they got to the front door to his house, Kakashi waved to all the people who had been following them, saying goodbye with Iruka. He stood on the area outside the door for a moment, arm around Iruka's waist, before opening the door for Iruka and letting him in.

Once they got inside, Kakashi turned to Iruka, letting out a sigh. He opened his mouth, to start to talk to him about what happened and use his Kakashi charm to suave Iruka into admitting that it was all a joke and tell everyone they were "breaking up"... but than Iruka pulled another trick on him. Iruka looked around the room, smelling the air, and walking right into the living room. Kakashi stood next to the doorway for a second, confusion written on his face. He followed Iruka, seeing him in his living room, stepping over randomly discarded piles of dirty cloths and scrolls. Iruka had a look of disgust written all over his face.

"Really... how do you live in this? This entire place is so filthy... is that a couch under that piles of cloths?" he started to say, crossing his arms over his chest.

'Why hasn't he brought it up yet? I was sure the instant we got in, he would talk to me about it and ask me why I did it... or maybe...' Kakashi thought, and suddenly everything clicked in his head. Iruka was setting the bar for the challenge. And that was exactly was he was doing.

Iruka decided that it would not be any fun or torturous to Kakashi if they could discuss the challenge, so decided to subtly get a point across.

Rule 1: First one to admit the proposal was a joke loses, and must admit to everyone the truth, and be hated by the community.

Kakashi smirked, getting the idea. Iruka looked back to Kakashi, matching his smirk, before looking put out again at the mess.

"Maa... Sorry Iruka. I just don't normally stay here a lot, so I have not had a chance to clean the place up." Kakashi replied, stretching out. "You know the deal. Missions... training the brats..."

Iruka let out a sigh, and said "Well... since we are getting married and all... I guess I had better clean your house a bit, eh?" and added in a perfectly placed sweet smile.

Kakashi's eyebrows shot up. He got his house cleaned... free? Maybe there was more to this spouse thing than he relished. Heck, if he was able to torture Iruka enough to make him reconsider, he got to embarrass the Chuunin, and got a free clean house! Could it get any better?! Before he could ask, a ninja appeared in the window. Kakashi looked over to the window, and than walked over.

"Yes?" he asked the random nin.

"Tsunade sama wishes to see you. She has an important mission." the nin said, handing him a scroll, before running off. Kakashi looked down at the scroll, and opening it. One week. A week away. That gave him plenty of time to think of every way possible to harass Iruka. He smiled, and looked back to the Chuunin.

"I have to go... Mission." he said, moving over, until he was standing right next to Iruka. Kakashi only had an inch on the Chuunin, so he didn't have to look down much.

"How long?" Iruka asked, one arm full of dirty laundry, looking up at Kakashi.

Kakashi debated telling him... but decided to in the end. There was no way Iruka would be plotting anything evil over the week, and even if he did, Kakashi was a jounin! Nothing could stop him when determined.

"A week. Gives you plenty of time to fix the place up. See ya... honey." Kakashi said, and after he said honey, while doing the hand signs for the transportation jutsu, bend down slightly, and kissed him on the cheek. Before Iruka could react though, he was gone in a puff of smoke.

When the smoke cleared, the only person in the room was Iruka, holding a hand to his cheek, blushing slightly. Once Iruka regained his senses of what just happened, he noticed Kakashi had landed a hit on him. That didn't mean he won the battle though.

"... Fucking idiot..." he muttered to himself, before starting to clean up more. He had a smirk on now though, because this mission of Kakashi's was perfect.

One week. Alone. With Kakashi's house.


One week later...

Kakashi was tired. And not just tired... he was exhausted. The mission had been a little bit harder than he anticipated. He was glad though... he was almost home. For the moment, he had forgotten Iruka had been alone in his house for a week. He thought about it before though, and decided Iruka's job took up too much time to be able to mess with his house too much. And anything was better than sleeping in the god knows what on his bed. He was finally to his house, after an hour of travel. He was ready to just get into his bed, and sleep. Except... something seemed off. He looked at his house, trying to figure out what it was that was amiss. His 'something really bad happened to my apartment' senses were tingling like mad. He ignored it though, and went in through the window.

The first sight he saw... was not bad at all. It seemed fine. His apartment was actually clean, and things looked actually orderly. He smiled, and took another step into his humble house. He looked at everything, counting it all off.

'Scrolls... couch... empty bookshelf... bathroo-

EMPTY BOOKSHELF?!'

Kakashi rushed back to the bookshelf, taking another look at it. Gone! The Icha Icha! All of It! GONE!

Kakashi sunk to his knees on the ground, in defeat, staring at his bookshelf. Suddenly, he felt pressure on his shoulders. Iruka knelt down behind Kakashi, evil smirk on his face, and wrapped his arms around the muscular man's neck gently.

"What's the matter, honey? Are you upset that I disposed of those books? I thought that since you have me here now, that you wouldn't need those. Don't be upset... I made some brownies and left them out in the kitchen so that you could have something to drown your sorrow in." Iruka said, with fake gentleness in his voice, and it reeked of sarcasm. It was his turn to lean forward, and place a kiss on Kakashi's cheek now, before standing up.

"I am heading off to bed. Work tomorrow." Iruka said, waltzing down the hall and towards the bedroom. Before he walked in, he looked over his shoulder, grinning like a madman, before entering the room and closing the door.

Kakashi sat on the floor for a couple more minutes, drowning in his own sorrow. Iruka had won a battle. But that would change soon! Kakashi stood up, walking to the kitchen, and to the brownies. He used every jutsu he knew to check them for poisons, and sniffed the out. They smelled safe, and the jutsu's said they were safe, so he pulled down his mask, taking a quick bite of one, before pulling it up again. Right in the middle of swallowing though, he almost choked on his brownie.

Iruka was in the bedroom. There was only one bed. That meant...

Oh hell no!

Kakashi finished swallowing the brownie, and was about to go to the bedroom and force Iruka out... but than a thought struck him. They were playing newlyweds... that meant he had to... want to share a bed. But Kakashi, being the genius he was, had a plan. Iruka liked clean stuff... so...

'Oh this is too good.' he thought with a smile, and walked to the bedroom. When he opened the door, Iruka was already in bed, in pajamas and 'asleep'. Kakashi did not even go over to the dresser to change his clothing, but instead took a seat on the bed. Not even the sandals came off. He laid down on the bed, as close as he could get to Iruka without touching him, and made his attack. He yawned, and than stretched his arms above his head.

Than, he waited for the smell to reach Iruka.

3.462 seconds later, a small gagging sound came from Iruka.

'Oh... oh god... what is... WHAT IS THAT SMELL?!' thought Iruka, as he shot into a sitting position, looking to Kakashi sprawled out on the bed. He gagged again.

"You didn't take a shower... did you." Iruka said, looking a bit green in the face.

Kakashi just curved his eye into a smile, and said "Nope! I didn't! Why... there a problem?"

Iruka made a bigger gagging sound now, and shot out of the bed, holding a hand over his mouth.

"That is... sick! How can you... never mind, I think I am going to sleep on the couch." he said, not even bothering to yank a cover off of the bed, and stormed out of the room.

Kakashi put his arms down now, grinning triumphantly. He took a small whiff of the air, and almost gagged himself. 'That's disgusting.' he thought to himself, though glad he had the bed. He waited a good half hour, until he could hear Iruka peacefully sleeping in the other room, on the couch. That was when he got out of bed, and headed to the shower. He took a very quick shower, and than got into pajamas. He had on a fresh mask as well, and walked out of the bathroom, drying his hair. He looked towards the living room, still hearing Iruka's steady breathing... but there was something different about it. He set down the towel, and made his way over to the living room, to the couch.

He peeked over at Iruka, to see if he really was asleep. Iruka's legs hung off the end of the couch, since it was not quite big enough to peacefully lie on without something hanging off. Iruka had not even bothered with a cover, so he was shivering slightly. His hair was not up in its usual ponytail... something Kakashi had not noticed before. He hadn't been paying enough attention. Iruka had a slightly pained look on his face. Kakashi couldn't blame him... the couch was hard as a rock. Kakashi had accidentally fallen asleep on it once. His back hurt for days after...

'... Damn.' thought Kakashi, as he felt his resistance crumble. He knew he wanted to make Iruka embarrassed... but the actual thought of causing him discomfort or pain made his inside do something really odd. He grumbled out a curse, and walked over to the other side of the couch. He knelt down on one knee in front of it, and put one arm under the back on his knees, and the other arm wrapped around the underside of his torso. Than Kakashi lifted the sleeping Chuunin up, and began to carry him towards the bedroom. He pushed open the door with his foot, walking into the room. Once he got over to the side of the bed, he put Iruka down on the side he had been on before, draping the sheet over him. When he had finished pulling up the sheet, he looked down at Iruka.

Than... the oddest feeling came over him. Something about the relived look on the Chuunin face... how his chest slowly rose up and down... a true comforting smile on his face... it was... hypnotic. Before Kakashi knew it, his face was hovering inches above Iruka's, and his elbows were on either side of the Chuunin's head, propping him up. When Kakashi finally relised how close he had actually gotten to Iruka, his visible eye widened and he quickly stood back up, even taking a step back.

'What the... What am I doing? Am I really so tired that I almost fell asleep on top of Iruka?! I need sleep. Now.' Kakashi told himself, going over to the other side of the bed, and sitting down on it, rubbing his eye, before taking off the forehead protector and laid down in bed. He was glad Iruka was asleep. Had the Chuunin been awake, he might think Kakashi was actually making a move or something. 'Even the thought of that is stupid. I am just a sadistic bastard who enjoys tormenting him. Nothing more.' He let out a tired sigh, before he slowly went to sleep.

Iruka had woken up for a moment about an hour later, wondering why he was not on the couch anymore. He turned his head to the side, looking at Kakashi's sleeping form. With a sadistic smirk, he closed his eyes again, letting himself be taken away by sleep once more.

Round 2... Winner: Iruka.


Iruka was slowly waking up. He could feel the sun on his face, and snuggled a bit further into the warm comfy spot he had found on the bed. He let out a happy sigh, slowly waking up more and more. He took in a deep breath, and let it out slowly. He had not remembered the last time he had had such a good sleep. He was slightly sore from that small period of time he spent on the couch, so he was thankful he had not spent the entire night on it. Something seemed wrong though... he knew something was up.

'... the last time that I slept this well was when... was when I overslept and was late to work...' he thought, fear suddenly striking him. He slowly opened one eye, looking to the alarm clock.

It was 10 in the morning. 10 in the morning! And worse of all... it was not that the alarm was broken. It was turned off. Iruka's eyes opened wide as saucers, and he leapt out of the bed. He quickly ran across the room, undressing along the way. He got to where he kept his stash of clothing and his uniform, throwing on a pair of pants, and a shirt, along with his vest. He tied his hair up in a half assed ponytail, and than exited the room, sprinting down the hall to get his scrolls, all while muttering "fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuck..." under his breath.

Once the scrolls and the door was in sight though, Kakashi stepped out from the kitchen, raising an arm out in front of Iruka, and catching him around the waist. Iruka was whipped around, until he was facing the opposite direction, Kakashi's arm still in front of him. Kakashi was facing towards the door now, one leg locked against Iruka's to stop him from running, and their hips touching now. Iruka looked to the side, up at Kakashi, opening his mouth to retort, but Kakashi spoke up first.

"First of all... I am shocked Iruka. Such a potty mouth you have!" he started, teasing him about Iruka's lack of his ability to control his language. Before Iruka could retort, he spoke up again.

"And I know you are probably wondering why I turned off you alarm. Well... you looked so comfortable when you were sleeping... so I turned it off and called you in sick for work. I know you only get one sick day a year, and since this is the first full day we will be engaged... I thought we should spend it together. And I was looking into it... and I found out that during you time as a teacher, you will only get one day off for a wedding, since this village is incredibly against divorce. So if you wanted to pull out of the marriage... I would understand." Kakashi said, looking triumphant, keeping his hold on Iruka.

Iruka was devastated. He had always had perfect work attendance, and he was saving that sick day for a special occasion, should it pop up. As for the marriage though... he wasn't worried. 'I never planned on getting married anyways. It is going to take a lot more than that to convince me out of it.' he thought, putting on a fake smile again.

"Of course I would never think about not marrying you." he said, standing his ground, and keeping his fake smile on. Even if it was going to kill him, he was not going to lose to Kakashi. Kakashi had always been teasing him, and landing the final emotional hit before running off again. It was Iruka's turn to beat Kakashi.

Kakashi knew today was the day he was going to convince Iruka out of it though. He had a lot of plans, thanks to his beloved Icha Icha, which he had found where Iruka hid them.

It was time to take care of business, Kakashi style.
