CHAPTER 2 - Remembering you

he watched his teammate throw kunais at the target a few feet away from him. He couldn't help but stare at the movement of the muscles throughout the other boy's body. The older boy felt a blush form across his cheeks as he realised he was staring at his teammate's body, he tried to hide his reddening face by lowering his head so that black strands fell over his eyes. He was fidgeting with the end of his shirt as he realised the younger boy was standing before him, glancing down

" are you ok Obito? You're not getting sick are you? "

Obito didn't look up, he didn't dare to, he knew his face was beet red and the boy in front of him wasn't allowed to see, so he just shook his head, still fidgeting with his shirt.

" you sure? "the soon to be Jounin kneeled down before his friend and placed a hand on the black haired shinobi's forehead measuring his temperature. Obito heard his teammate sigh and suddenly felt the hand leave his forehead, his heart fell a little when the contact between the two had left, but it allowed him to relax as well. Not for long though, Obito gasped when his crush leaned over and placed their foreheads together, if it was possible, Obito was pretty sure his face had gotten even redder. He didn't know when it happened or how but at some point he .. Obito Uchiha had developed feelings for his male teammate. He used to hate the silver haired boy but now his stomach tightened whenever he was near and Obito would get nervous and fidget with whatever he would have in his hands, he felt ridiculous, he felt like some teenage girl who was head over heels in love with some boy. Obito had tried to suppress his feelings and telling himself it was just a faze that he was going through, now he just tried to act normal toward his teammate, but he caught himself staring millions of times and Obito felt so ashamed when that happened. He couldn't help but check out the younger boy whenever he got the chance.

Obito felt a hand caress his cheek and he realised he had been daydreaming, he focussed on the boy in front of him again and released a breath he forgot he had taken. He felt the other boy move slightly closer, feeling the younger chuunin's breath ghost over his own lips. Obito's eyes slid closer slowly waiting for the contact he had been dreaming about for so long, he took in another breath, feeling his heart pound hard against his chest.

" k'shi.. "

Obito winced as he heard a loud pounding on his front door, he groaned and rubbed the sleep out of his eye. As he swung his legs out of his bed he glanced down at his feet, biting his bottom lip. He's been dreaming like that for a while now, he was very sure that it was him in his dream … just a lot younger, but he didn't know the other boy, he seemed familiar but Obito couldn't put a name on him. Obito also didn't know if they were dreams or memories…the idea of them being memories made him blush.

He liked to think they were, Obito didn't remember anything before Grass found him, the idea of someone out there that could tell him who exactly he was made him nervous, the idea of someone out there that made him feel like the silver haired boy in his dreams made him feel, made him even more nervous. It were his dreams that caused him to not ..love anyone, Obito knew that even though he was scared he was still quite good looking. Women from Kusa had shown interest in him and he's even gone out with some people or even tried a relationship with them, but when you're in a relationship it's generally not good to think and dream of someone else and it's definitely not good when you talk in your sleep and say the name of the man you're dreaming about, but you yourself can't remember the name. so when the next morning your girlfriend confronts you with it and all you ask is what the name was … yea, not a good impression.

Loud pounding from his door made Obito snap out of his thoughts and he growled lightly, shuffling toward his door. He looked outside and saw the sun hadn't even rise yet, Obito cursed silently, he could have dreamed further.

" someone better be dying! " he made an attempt to swing the door open as he yelled at whoever was waking him up at this ungodly hour.

" don't say that too loud Obito " the dark haired ninja scowled at the man at his door.

" what do you want Gado? " the man at his door grinned down at him, Gado was a Jounin from Kusa, he was well respected but oh so annoying and arrogant.

" the team that was sent to Konoha reported that the ninjas working on the storage building need protection, they've been attacked before so they need ninjas who are specialised in spying and moving really fast " Gado grinned again and ruffled Obito's black hair " well in your case teleporting "

Obito raised an eyebrow in confusion " they're sending me to Konoha? "

the taller man tilted his head slightly making his normally slinked back blond hair fall over his forehead protector " not really, Kaida only asked me.. but like hell I'm doing this alone so I'm asking if you'd like to assist me " Obito grinned, of course Gado didn't know about Kaida's 'keep Obito away from Konoha' plan.

the smaller ninja slapped Gado on his shoulder and grinned broadly " yea I'll help you out, I'll be out in a minute " Obito went back inside closing the door, getting ready as fast as he could while grinning his head off ' yea, suck on that Kaida '

Kakashi walked down the streets of konoha, up to his daily routine of visiting the memorial stone and apologizing to Obito yet again. As Kakashi walked onto the training grounds where the memorial stone was placed, he recognized the man standing in front of the stone. Kakashi removed his hands out of his pockets and placed a hand on the man's shoulder.

" Iruka? " the brunette turned around and looked at the jounin behind him, he smiled lightly and leaned his head against Kakashi's shoulder sighing softly.

" I just came here to visit my parents " Kakashi didn't react apart from a slight nod, Iruka looked up at the older man and was about to ask Kakashi why he was here but knew he wouldn't answer. The Chuunin had asked before and just got told that Kakashi rather not bother him with it. He was fine with it, he allowed kakashi his secrets, at first Iruka was paranoid about the jounin's strange habits, but kakashi assured him he only went to the memorial stone. The two of them had been dating for a while now even though the older ninja was a closed book and didn't let Iruka in on his personal life that much but Iruka was ok with how things were ..well kind of, he hoped that Kakashi would open up more but he just needed more time. Iruka kissed his lover quickly on the cheek above his mask and turned away.

" I'll see you at noon? " he asked smiling up at the silver haired man who smiled back and nodded.

as Iruka left, kakashi moved closer to the stone and moved his fingers over the name of the boy that had found his way closest to the jounin's heart than anyone else ever could have. Kakashi felt guilt gnaw at him, he cared a lot for Iruka and he'd never want to hurt him but Obito seemed to have left a deeper mark on him than he had expected. Kakashi wanted to move on, it's been 16 years.. kakashi should have moved on, but discarding the feelings Obito gave him was impossible. Kakashi smiled lightly and moved his hand to where his left eye was. It's like Obito didn't want him to forget.
