Kakashi's POV
Chapter 4: The Past- Moving In
I hadn't given much thought to the relationship that was forming between Iruka and me. Not that I give thoughts to other things. Oh, God no.
I ran my thoughts, Iruka called them dirty sometimes. I was sitting outside my lovely dolphin's apartment complex. I crossed my legs a bit, letting the chilly air run over me.
I look towards the direction that I knew Iruka came from after he got off work. I placed my hands over one of my knees. I stood up when I saw chocolate brown hair in the distance.
I saw the body speed up when Iruka saw me walking up to him. He wrapped his arms around my neck. I picked up the small man up off the ground to spin him around. Our lips interlocked quickly before I set him down.
The brown headed man took my hand. He led me into the building, allowing me to intertwine our fingers.
"Weren't you cold 'Kashi?"
"A little, but I could get used to it," I said shrugging a bit.
Iruka smiled as he unlocked his door. I lightly placed a hand on the doorway. His chocolate brown eyes were trained on me for a second. He tilted his head lightly.
"Are you lonely living here by yourself?" I asked him.
"Sometimes but I had just gotten used to it until you came along and broke my glasses."
My eye twitched a bit before I said, "I did get you contacts."
"And it was very sweet of you," Iruka said patting my chest lightly.
I couldn't help but smile at the younger male. I watched him walk into his apartment before I followed him. My eyes found a steady gaze on the others backside.
When I realized what I was doing, I quickly averted my eyes. I certainly didn't want my dolphin to think that I only wanted to be with him because of the sex.
"You want anything to drink?" Iruka asked, looking back at me.
"Not really," I said shaking my head. "I just came here to check up on you actually."
"If you moved in you wouldn't need to," Iruka said, making the suggestion once again.
"How many times must you ask me to move in with you?"
"As many times as it takes."
A sigh escaped my mouth a bit. I couldn't believe that we were going to talk about this again. I looked at Iruka. The tanned teacher was now looking at the ground.
"'Ruka. It'll be soon when I move in," I said softly, touching his arm.
His face instantly looked up at me. His chocolate brown eyes were happy for the first time in a while. I lightly pecked his lips. He slowly wrapped his arms around my neck. I let my arms snake around his waist lightly.
I pulled him towards me. With just that tiny gesture, I could feel Iruka's mouth spread into a smile underneath my own lips.
It was a few weeks before I began to move what little I had into Iruka's apartment. I wouldn't let my deer lover move anything of mine into what could now be called our apartment.
Iruka had a smile on his face even if I didn't let him do anything.
