"Yo, Tenzou." Not 10 minutes have passed, when a vigorously knocking woke him up from his short-lived nap."There it goes...-", murmured a still drowsy Tenzou while he slid out of his warm bed and hurried to the door.
The view he engaged confused him, he blinked a few times just to make sure his eyesight was correct. Genma-san or Raido-san searching for more booze, that would have made sense to him but he was looking into the one lazily eye of his Senpai.
He instantly smiled and moved away, letting Kakashi enter his room."You're already back?", he asked, his voice full of relief. He pulled himself a chair and offered Kakashi to sit down on his bed.
Kakashi just nodded but wasn't explaining any further. Tenzou waited blandly, like he always did, but after a while he decided to tell his Senpai about his mission instead. In the middle of his remarks he stopped, noticing that Kakashi wasn't really listening because his mind was bothered with his own thoughts.
Tenzou surveyed is Senpai. He looked extremely tired, the uncovered eye stared emotionless into the room. The younger wasn't sure if Kakashi wanted to talk about it, but he felt that the mission was a huge failure.
He carefully tried to get in touch, "Kakashi-Senpai?" His Senpai's head faced the ground, not able to answer him just yet."Soka." Something definitely went wrong and its probably much worse then screwing an assignment.
"I lost him," he said, his voice so thin and calm that if you wouldn't have listened carefully there's no way you would have noticed it. But Tenzou did listen and he already suspected these words.
There were only two reasons why Kakashi would enter his apartment in the middle of the night. A mission or a dead comrade. He had been through so many similar nights and each time they try to comfort each other, heal the pain no one else could ever understand as much as they did.
He raised from his chair, his fatigue caused him to toddle a little bit while he made his way across the room to his mini fridge. He snatched two ice-cold beer out of it and moved back, now sitting next to Kakashi. He offered Kakashi the bottle, who grabbed it thankfully and while he flipped off the beermat, Tenzou reflexively turned around.
Though they've known one another for years, he had never seen Kakashi without his mask on and every time they were having dinner or a drink they would just sit back to back eating all by themselves.
Truth is, it's likely that apart from his former Sensei and Geninteam no one has ever seen what was beneath this blue fabric of his, covering the lower part of his face completely.
„Second time I'm jealous of the death," he thought but instantly dissipated of these cogitations. „You shouldn't bad-mouth the dead, right?" With his mind cleared, he finally turned, avoiding to face Kakashi.
But this time Kakashi grabbed his arm, didn't want him to turn away from him and a slightly confused Tenzou didn't bother much to fight him off. "Senpai?"
Kakashi smiled gently and his hand left Tenzou's arm to pull his mask down.
It was hard not to stare. „Damn!" It was impossible not to stare. Actually Tenzou thought he had meanwhile accepted that he would never be able to lift the secret about Kakashi's true looks but if he was honest he raved on this mystery for almost an eternity.
Knowing what was really under that blue mask made him feel like his deepest wish came true. To be correct: this was his deepest wish coming true but he could never tell his Senpai, „right?"
But it wasn't only because of his curiosity finally getting satisfied that he couldn't take his eyes off of him. „Senpai looks so handsome. Hell. He looks way to freak-in hot for a man!", Tenzou cursed secretly as he noticed the inappropriate feeling growing in his lower area.
The well-shaped nose, his good-looking, matching cheeks with these cheekbones to die for and his small chin alone could make Tenzou dance after his whistle. But these - beautiful to look at - small, soft lips made him go all crazy.
He felt the urge to touch him and feel if these lips are as velvety as he imagined them to be. Damn. He was tired, exhausted and it was late at night. Tenzou needed every tiny bit of his concentration left to calm himself. He had to take care of his Senpai, to take the misery, Kakashi had arrived with, far far away from him.
Suddenly he heard a sound, metal hit the ground and as he looked down he saw, vaguely shocked that Kakashi's headband was now lying on the floor. Tenzou knew he didn't need it to control his Sharingan and that he just wears it out of personal reasons and of course to hide it in front of the enemy, but he never saw him putting it down on such an occasional matter.
This in combination with the missing mask on his face irritated the Brownhaired so much, that he nearly dropped his beer.
Kakashi chuckled about his clumsy Kohai and it was a magnificent view. Both eyes closed, his face actually showed a lot of movement creating a small adorable dimple around his mouth.
Then he leaned forward, his forehead touching Tenzou's. The younger anbu knew that he was blushing, that his cheeks has turned completely red again but this time he didn't care, it felt right.
"Gomen, Tenzou," Kakashi breathed, his breath so close that it tickled Tenzou's skin warmly. He instead didn't breathe at all since his Senpai had leaned towards him, touching him so softly. The cozy feeling vanished, Tenzou gasped sheepishly for air and Kakashi took a deep sip of the meanwhile warm fluid. Tenzou was flustered, "Senpai?"
The silverhaired stared at his Kohai for a while, since Minato's death he had never felt this close to anyone. Yet he know there was more to it. He was addicted to these almond-shaped brown eyes, felt breathless when their eyes met. He was aware of the fact that no one had ever made him feel this way, no one had ever attracted him as much as this brownhaired boy did.
That's why he didn't understand. Why hadn't he realized it earlier? Why didn't he notice until today that he couldn't bear loosing him, that he was so much closer to him than was good for both of them. Much closer than Kakashi should have allowed him to be.
"Gomen." Kakashi had apologized twice by now, which obviously scared Tenzou. It's not even usual for him to apologize once even though it might be appropriate. Hearing these words twice out of Kakashi's mouth made Tenzou's body shiver slightly.
"Talk to me." The brownhaired touched his Senpai's shoulder gently, trying to tell him that he was and always would be here by his side.
"Our Mission was to infiltrate an underground weapon warehouse and blow it up," his voice started monotone. "We had a map but nothing more on useful information. That's at least what I thought," his face, usually not showing any emotion, stated now clearly his anger. "Root. Danzo gave him a little extra Information. The store could only be destroyed from within. He wanted to be the one positioning the explosives and I waited outside."
He emptied the bottle and looked down. "Door closed behind him, he was trapped. I tried anything I could but it was no use. He explained calmly that he knew it all along and that his death was already planned before the mission."
Tenzou swallowed, "A suicide mission?" Especially at Root this wasn't out of the ordinary but it was strictly forbidden at anbu.
Kakashi nodded, but there was more he wanted to tell him, "Tenzou, when I was assigned to this Mission...I wanted you to be my partner. And I was so close on declining if it wasn't you I was allowed to take with me."
His lips were deeply pressed together, signalizing Tenzou how hard it was for him to speak out the unbearable,"I could have lost you today. You could have been the one...-"
Before the brownhaired could actually think about it, he placed his hand softly on Kakashi's chin, stopping him from his surreal train of thoughts, which pained Tenzou as much as it touched him.
"But I'm here Kakashi-Senpai, right in front of you." He forced Kakashi to look him into his brown eyes, smiled faintly at him and Kakashi's next sentence made him finally respond the way he wanted to all along.
"I know, but I realized that I couldn't live, loosing you, Tenzou." That's it. His Kohai leaned forward and placed his lips on his.
God. They were even softer than he did imagine them to be. Surprisingly he felt Kakashi's lips open up, letting him in and he had already gone to far to stop now. His tongue went further into Kakashi's mouth made him feel how much he longed for this. If it wasn't for air he would have never pulled back and stopped their kiss.
When they parted Kakashi looked troubled and Tenzou felt guilty right away, he was afraid that he exploited his temporary vulnerability and forced him to what he alone wanted to happen.
But before he could regret a thing he found himself pinned down on the mattress. Kakashi sat upon him, his right hand grabbed his arms tightly, his hip was pressed on Tenzou's abdomen and a devilish grin was directed at him.
"Maa, Tenzou," he chuckled and the sound of his voice stirred Tenzou's blood. Kakashi bent down and whispered into his ear, "I didn't know you can be that pushy," he ended by licking his ear lope which made Tenzou moan with pleasure. "And these noises, Tenzou, I'm impressed."
The brownhaired was aroused and according to the growing pressure on his stomach, Kakashi enjoyed the sight. He intensively leered at his little Kohai, lying under him with this thrilled expression on his face, his beautiful brown eyes widened.
Then with a disappointed look he said. "Too many clothes."
