Male/Male

Yamato (Tenzou) x Kiba, muscle

Yamato thinks it's a shame that Kiba keeps his muscles hidden underneath his coat; but when the younger man takes it off, Yamato gets glimpses through the mesh that make him jealous of his teammates, who get to see it often when he takes the jacket off for training – then Yamato reminds himself that only he gets to see it all.

Raidou x Zabuza, devil

Raidou had met a devil once (and his partner, who looked sweet as an angel), a long time ago while he was out on a delivery mission; back then he hadn't known who Zabuza really was, and had taken pleasure in the man's company.

Gai x Zabuza, register

After Gai met Zabuza, he registered the devil's name in his book; not only because of his prowess in battle (or Nuke-nin rank), but also because of the secret devotion that the other man gave to his partner, Haku; Gai recognized it because of his devotion to his own protégé.

Neji x Hiashi, anxious

Neji called out to his uncle anxiously from outside the door; he'd been calling for a few minutes, but had received no answer – so he gave a quick apology before barging in, staring in shock as Hiashi stepped out of his bathroom in nothing but a towel; Neji's face filled with red as he stuttered a hasty apology and retreated, leaving a bemused Hiashi behind.

Kakashi x Deidara, dizzy (modern AU)

Perhaps Deidara has had too much to drink - when he gets dizzy and slips on the dance floor and is enfolded in someone's arms, he looks up to see a pirate; he must have said his observations aloud, because the man chuckles in his ear and offers him a ride home (Deidara agrees, for once leaving Sasori to his own devices).

Itachi x Kankurou, panic

When the oldest Uchiha held Kankurou in place by the neck, of course he panicked – even in Sunagakure, everyone knew of how the Uchiha clan was slaughtered; so it was a surprise when the Uchiha only removed the kunai from his back that Kankurou had been trying to remove himself before the Uchiha had shown up; then the Uchiha sat him back down on his feet and left (later, Kankurou surmised that it must have been a dream).

Kisame x Sasuke, trial

It was a trial getting used to Sasuke after spending years as Itachi's partner - they were both siblings, but vastly different, and the only reason Kisame was able to deal with it was because deep down, he could see the same child in Sasuke as he saw within Itachi.

Gai x Gaara, breathe

Gai was surprised when young Gaara came to visit him one day to apologize for hurting Lee so badly and for worrying him – but when Gaara audibly took a breathe and explained how he was trying to change, Gai didn't need anymore words to understand; he just did what he'd do if it were Lee, and hugged the surprised Sand-nin to his chest.

Itachi x Kabuto, confidence

Kabuto had many connections to high-up people, but that didn't mean he was always as confident as he seemed - whenever Itachi came near him, he found himself developing an embarrassing nervous tic in his eye; sometimes he swore the Uchiha did it on purpose just to watch him squirm.

Gaara x Kankurou, CPR

Kankurou had been completely unprepared when the wall of waves had crashed into him, knocking him about until he passed out – but he was completely floored when he woke with Gaara's lips on his, performing CPR; when he finished coughing up water, the lips returned to his and Gaara's eyes stayed locked with his the whole time.

Ibiki x Kakashi, stroke

When the clock struck eleven, Kakashi (on his twenty third birthday) headed over to Ibiki's office to ask the other man to share the time with him; the other man commented on what a strange occurrence it was, but sat to eat with the copy-nin all the same; Ibiki thought the man was just hiding away from Gai, who kept trying to throw a birthday party for him.


Male/Female

Hanabi x Hiashi, birthday

When Hanabi asked if Hiashi would do something special for her 18th birthday, he was surprised; she'd never asked for anything before – but in the end, he found himself agreeing to a dinner for just the two of them.

Deidara x Karin, natural

It was odd, how Deidara and Karin seemed to get along (with Deidara hating the Uchiha, Karin crushing on one), but then again, Karin already had someone to argue with over stupid things in Suigetsu, so maybe it was natural that Karin would look for someone to argue with in another way.

Hanabi x Yamato (Tenzou), voice

A voice calls out to him from behind, asking what he is doing and without turning around, he responds that he is planting seeds for the future; footsteps draw closer and Hanabi crouches beside him, watching with Hyuuga eyes as he carefully packs the dirt, and when he offers a seed to her, she takes it gingerly and starts digging a hole with her hands (he lets her, even though he has a spade, the future can only be built by the hands of it's people).

Kurenai x Orochimaru, grudge

Before Kurenai learned the truth about him, she begrudged Anko her sensei, wondering what it would be like to have someone so devoted to making her stronger like that; sometimes, she caught Anko looking at her watching them, but there was no arrogance in the other girl's eyes – instead, an unidentifiable emotion that made Kurenai envy the man instead.

Rin x Itachi, waiting

Rin is only nine, but that's why Mikoto picks her - she's not of the Uchiha clan and she's great with kids (not to mention already good at healing, just in case anything happened); so Rin goes to the Uchiha Compound where baby Itachi's mother is waiting for her to baby-sit while she goes out to run errands.

Hayate x Shizune, arrow

Thirteen year old Shizune didn't even need to use the hidden arrow left by her young friend anymore (having memorized the way), eventually reaching and climbing into the tree house he was sitting in; she wasted no time telling him how she would be leaving to train with the great Tsunade; Hayate opened his mouth to answer but coughed instead - Shizune sat down in front of him and laid a hand on his shoulder, and no more words were spoken between them.

Kurenai x Jiraiya, winter

Despite her skill type, Kurenai actually prefers the winter – especially since the indoor onsen are still open (and despite any perverted sages who lay bleeding on the other side of the fence, she laid back and let the hot water seep into her chilled skin).
