A/N: I just have to explain something before I start. This starts off with a drinking game they're playing. How it goes is that you take turns saying names. One person says a name and then the next person has to say a name that begins with the same letter of the last name of the previous person. So if someone says Harry Potter then since his last name begins with a P the next person should say something like Paula Abdul. Then the next one would be something like Aretha Franklin. I hope you guys understood it with my sad explanation. Haha. Okay, onto the story!
"...All actions have consequences... I will honor my Hokage's wishes and never question his/her orders..."- Section 5.10; ANBU Oath
"Shikamaru Nara!" Genma shouted.
"Neji Hyuuga," Shikamaru slurred immediately after.
Sasuke quirked an eyebrow, "Hana Inuzuka?"
Before Kakashi blurted out, "Ibiki Morino," just in time.
Genma gave a brief giggle before he realized... blank, "Uh..." he cocked his head to the side. "Uh... I know this! Um..." he hit himself on the head a few times. These drinking games are damn tricky. "Oh! I got it! Mighty-"
"HAA!!! You lost Genma!" All four of them hollered. "Sucker! Drink up!"
He looked from face to face his eyes narrowed as he saw Kakashi fill his cup to the brim- though he wasn't quite sure with what, "No- wait! I sai-"
"It doesn't matter anymore," Neji laughed. "Drink up baby!"
"Drink! Drink! Drink!" Shikamaru yelled in tune. "Show us how it's done!"
"I- uh- a little help Sasuke?"
"Nu uh," he shook his head with a goofy grin from where he sat. His drunken side had gotten the better of him. "Just throw that back Genma!"
None of them were acting much like themselves right then, but all of them were far long gone to even care. Not that they could wrap their heads around much other than what they were taking down their throats anyways.
Genma glared daggers at the group, "Assho-" but a bottle of beer shoved to his lips cut him off. All they could hear were incoherent mutters and what they were pretty sure were cuss words that they really couldn't give two shits about at this point.
They all began a fit of hysterical laughter as Genma flicked them all off. Neji fell over laughing resting his head in Sasuke's lap who stroked his head. Neji purred at the touch.
While Shikamaru fell back with a thud shouting, "I love you guys!"
"We love you too!" Neji and Sasuke screamed, Sasuke swishing a bottle of sake in his hand. It was only a few minutes before Neji and Shikamaru fell unconscious, or what they hoped was unconscious, to which Sasuke followed with one last swig.
And that was that...
They were lying there on the floor not due to make any sudden movements, or any movements for that matter, until that next morning.
But Genma and Kakashi on the other hand were dealing with their drunken states in a different way... a completely different way. Somewhere in between when Kakashi was shoving a drink down the other man's throat and when Kakashi was laughing his ass off Genma had thrown the bottle into the bushes and took the chance to push the man up against a tree; his lips crushing against him in a raw and lust fueled kiss.
Teeth clashing up against each other, Kakashi felt a hot tongue force its way into his mouth, exploring once familiar territory... he had no complaints. Immediately he responded with equal fervor. However, he found he couldn't do much with his arms pinned above his head and a thigh in between his legs. An enthusiastic and- oh gods- and dexterous thigh that rubbed in just the right places; vigorously might he add.
But he couldn't keep his mind off anything other than those lips moving against his and that tongue working magic on his own, though he would be damned if he'd be outdone. Pushing his body fiercely against Genma's, he got him to gasp, using the time to his advantage. He worked the man himself; using his tongue to caress and move against that hot muscle. Tasting and licking every spot he'd know Genma yearned him to touch. He pulled back and licked his lips, the flavor of alcohol still fresh.
Genma pulled back enough just to let him see that smirk crawl up that face, it was his silent way of telling Kakashi, 'I'm want to fuck you sooo bad.'
He craned his neck as to give those hot pair of lips more room to work, and a silent invitation to which the other accepted, "Genma." He hissed, fingers curling and arms wrestling for freedom. "Horny bastard."
"Only around you Hatake," the warm breath bearing on his skin made him shiver.
He could feel the hairs on the back of his neck bristle as those familiar touches ran down his body. Those hands rubbing up and down his sides, his shirt halfway up his body. He could already feel his member hardening with every noise that escaped the other's throat. Kakashi just loved it when he was so... noisy.
Pushing away against the man's chest Kakashi held out his hand, "Let's go over there." He cocked his head towards the darker part of the woods. A smile came onto the Genma's face before he gladly took it, following Sharingan Kakashi's lead... a set of ink black eyes watching them leave.

Five well renowned ninja came trudging through the gates of Konoha early that morning, just a tad bit slower and a little less alert than usual. They were dragging their feet in the dirt and their hair was in a ghastly mess, too tired to care. That combined with a whiff of their breaths could quickly confess last night's festivities... or what seemed like it then.
Shikamaru clutched his head, "Who's the genius that suggested that last game?" he groaned squinting at his group.
Genma grunted as he replied "You." He sent a glare his way when his mind began to spin, "Bad idea," he thought. He grasped his head in the after effects, mentally cursing himself as he did. He'd had too many hangovers to know that that was the first rule; refrain from making any sudden movements, you'll feel like something fierce. And man-oh-man was he beginning to feel it. "I'm going to-" And he dashed to the nearest bush.
Kakashi shut his eyes trying to drown out the sound of Genma vomiting, "Don't think about it. Don't think about it. Don't think about it." He chanted to himself.
"I hate this," Neji grumbled beside him rubbing his temples. Sasuke could only nod – slowly nod- in agreement.
"There's no way Tsunade will let us live this down," he whined before adding on a happier note. "At least it's pretty peacefu-."
But he saw he stood corrected when that familiar voice hollered to them, "Goood morning my youthful comrades!"
Kakashi went pale and lurched up, running for the nearest potted plant at the sound... oh how they must have angered the gods.
The Nara ran a hand down his face muttering a, "Fuck this." before making an attempt to run. Unfortunately for him, he hadn't gotten but two steps in the other direction when he was forcefully yanked back by his collar.
He slowly turned around to face his attacker, eyes dangerously narrow.
"Oh no you don't," the Hyuuga smiled down at him. "If we have to suffer through this. So. Do. You."
While all the while Sasuke was standing to the side screaming,"Not now! Not Now! Not now!" to himself. He was so sure they were home free... so sure! The Hokage tower was right in their view, no one was around and he'd actually got his brain up and working again. This just had to be a curse, he mused. This just had to be.
"So, where are you all headed on this young day?!" Gai continued, completely oblivious to what was going on. He just stood there with his hands on his hips, chest out and head held high, emanating both pride and energy. He was clueless to the fact that that fact alone made Sasuke want to puke... alcohol or not.
Kakashi turned to them when Gai had begun to harass Genma, the poor thing looked like he was on the verge of insanity. "Alright," he pointed an accusing finger. "Who's been skimping on the praying?"
They just looked to each other and waved their hands, "Don't look at me!"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
They all sat before their Hokage, half exhausted and half relieved, both of which resulted from their unbelievable feat of having escaped the Green Beast of Konoha... they all gave a sigh of relief. After hours of careful planning they had done it. The plan that actually worked was when they had convinced Naruto to distract Gai with his Sexy No Jutsu... a modified version anyway. Either way, it never fails.
Sasuke shook his head when he remembered look on the blondes face. Lucky for him Tsunade was busy reading something at the moment and hadn't seen him. Otherwise he was pretty sure he'd get berated for that... yeah, no doubt about it. Though if any of the others guys did it he knew she wouldn't even give it a second thought, but the fact that it was him made all the difference. Ever since he'd returned from his uh... trip... she'd been singling him out. But he was used to it, he supposed, so he could care less. He looked up at Tsunade to see she was still shuffling through sheets of paper before he saw something that made him freeze.
Kakashi... and Genma, he began recalling the memory of last night... the part he'd tried so hard to suppress.
From the corner of his eye he watched the two interact, looking for signs of indifferent. Genma sitting down next to Kakashi was all he could see, still chewing away on that senbon stick, and well... acting as they usually did. He didn't catch them stealing glimpses of each other from time to time, they weren't always "accidentally" rubbing up against each other, their thighs weren't flush against the other. It was as if... as if nothing happened... or had it been happening all along?
His interest strongly piqued at the thought as an equally strong emotion washed over him. He didn't know why, but for some reason he felt... he felt... troubled? He couldn't quite explain it. All he knew was that it wasn't at all pleasant.
"Who brought it?" Tsunade's voice snapped Sasuke back into reality. "Hm? Genma?"
He heard the man chuckle, "You know me too well Tsunade-sama. I hope you don't mind though..." He smiled.
"Mind?" she made a face of faked surprise. "Oh, never! I would never mind! Who in their right minds would mind you bringing a bunch of drinks on a mission and getting hammered senseless you babbling idiots!" She slammed her fists onto the desk. "What were you guys thinking?!"
A thick silence suddenly covered the room. No one was making a single gesture let alone a single sound. Each one had been graced with the feeling of shame in their own way... or... most of them anyway. Even without looking Kakashi was sure that Genma wasn't paying attention at all. And knowing him, he was thinking about what he would do right after this. "At least she was partially right for calling someone an idiot," Kakashi thought.
"- idiots! And you Sasuke!" the raven looked up at the sound of his name. "I can't believe you were so careless as to allow the ANBU captains to see you act so reckless! Don't you know how this could endanger your chances of staying in ANBU?! I'm surprised no one has come to complain yet!"
Yet... but Sasuke knew that they would. Eversince he'd returned from Sound... it's been like this. He clenched his fists. A number of ninja still doubted him and glared at him whenever he'd walk by, and he often found himself on solo missions since many refused to partner with him. Even though he'd left the snake sannin to drown in his cold blood, many people still thought him a traitor. But a traitor he was. He bit back the bile that fought its way up at the thought. He knew he'd done wrong by leaving... but he was different now. In fact, its one of the reasons why he'd even joined ANBU; to show how much he wanted to fight for the village... but that was futile.
"- even though you know how hard it was to keep them from imprisoning you, you still go ahead and act a fool! I-"
"Tsunade-sama." Kakashi had heard enough of this. "Don't you think you're being too rough on the Sasuke? I-"
She gave a heavy sigh. "I was using this as a chance to prove your loyalty and your importance to the village. Now, I'm not sure how I will..."
The genius rubbed his chin and thought about the situation, "Well, you can show the villagers that he's in a process of rehabilitation." He suggested. "The visual effort will more than likely put them at ease."
Genma snorted before looking Shikamaru's way, "And how do you suggest we do that Nara?" He knew that persuading the villagers wasn't going to be an easy thing. So they needed a sure fire way to do this. Mistakes wouldn't be allowed.
"Well, we need to make it look like Sasuke's under another's guidance; preferablly someone whom this village trusts enough and admires..."
His voice trailed off as all eyes trailed onto the most eligible person in the room.
Tsunade raised both eyebrows, "What do you say Hatake?"
"...It doesn't matter to me," he shrugged.
"Good answer!" she nodded with a smile. "Uchiha?" she asked next.
"Same goes for me."
In her excitement she slammed her fists into the desk.. if walls could talk or in this case, desks., "Then it's settled! You'll be moving in with Kakashi today!"
All jaws literally dropped "Today?! I- isn't that a little too short notice?!"
A guffaw answered them, "Please, that is not short notice. Short notice is telling Genma that he has to make a guest appearance at the academy."
He screamed into the air, "WHAT THE?!"
"In about five minutes..."
And with that said the man had bolted out the room and could be seen dashing through the town. The last thing he needed was an angry chuunin on his back... a brown haired one in particular. As they watched the comical scene play Kakashi coolly turned to Sasuke.
"So... I guess we're living together."
"I guess so..."
... Kakashi had to keep himself from smiling.
