I'm back, sorry about the delays. (This is Yaoi, so turn back now if you do not like).


The sound of birds singing from outside Iruka's still open window woke the teacher from one of the best nights sleep he'd had for a while. He froze at the object heavy and warm across his chest, his heart fluttered and heat began flooding his face as his thoughts shifted to the night before.

He turned his head to one side and looked at Kakashi, his gravity defying hair was a little messy from tugs and pulls of ecstasy from the night before, his face serene and beautifully pale. Iruka had always liked the colour of the copy ninjas skin. Kakashi's lips were slightly parted with sleepy breathing, those lips… he remembered how they gave him the most intense kiss he'd ever had.

The kiss was so deep and full of passion, Iruka's heart swelled at the memory. Kakashi had been so sweet, so kind. He hadn't forced Iruka, he wanted to do those things with Kakashi.

Everything just flowed so well, the way he touched him, the things he'd said to him was so full of love that Iruka never once thought of stopping the man. Iruka remembered the last four words he said to Kakashi just before everything went black. "I love…you…also…"

'Aggghhh!' he mentally screamed, 'how embarrassing! Do I really feel that way? I've never felt this way about anyone else so could it be love?' He turned his gaze to the sleeping ninja again and inwardly sighed, 'he really is cute!'

Iruka slowly lifted his finger to the copy ninja's eye and gently traced the purple scar, he lent in and lightly kissed the eyelid. He felt the eyelid flutter under his lips and with a gasp Iruka tried to back away but a hand caught the back of his neck and pulled him towards the pale face once again.

"Hmmm, Iruka that's not fair" He grumbled voice thick with sleep.

"Huh?" The teacher was a little confused.

"Only kissing me while I'm asleep?" He pouted.

Pulling Iruka down further he pressed his lips against the others and breathed satisfyingly out of his nose, Iruka lifted his hand to the side of Kakashi's face and tenderly rubbed his cheek with his fingertips. The grip at the back of Iruka's head tightened and the kiss deepened.

Kakashi was the first to break the kiss, he stared up at the tanned chunin and smiled a loving smile.

"I love you Iruka, do you love me too?" he said softly his eye full of emotion.

"Yes, I think I do. I've never felt so strongly for another person before" He replied.

Kakashi smiled once more and sighed "I'm so glad"

He leant in once more, caught the teachers lips and began stroking his chest.

Iruka groaned lightly into the older ninja's mouth which in turn made jounin shudder.

*puff*

"Oi Kakashi you better move your ass or your gonna be late!!" The small pug barked. "Oh, hi Iruka-sensei… What the?!"

"Mo…morning pakkun" Iruka stuttered a blush creeping across his face hands still all over his body.

"Ok, what's going on here? Have I just fallen into one of your erotic Iruka dreams Kakashi?" he asked really quite puzzled.

"Erotic Iruka dreams?" Iruka questioned his face burning with embarrassment.

"I…well I told you last night that I dream of you I never said anything about it being an innocent one!" He replied lifting his hands from the teachers body whilst blushing and sweating.

"Grrr, your such a perv!" Iruka grumbled.

"Err-hem!" Pakkun interrupted! Both ninjas looked around embarrassed.

"What's going on here? Were you two… you know…" the dog trailed off.

"Yeah pakkun and you totally ruined the moment!" Kakashi moaned throwing a pillow at the pug. "stupid mutt get outta here!!"

"Ok boss, just get up alright?" and with a final surprised look the pug left the room with another puff of smoke.

Both shinobi looked at each other and laughed.

"So tell me more about these dreams of yours" Iruka teased.


"Kakashi quick, breakfast is done!" Iruka called feeling a little like a housewife.

The copy ninja turned off the running water and stepped out of the shower. 'yeah I'm coming!' he called back. Grabbing a towel and wrapping it around his waist he left the bathroom with a shudder at the cool air in the hallway.

He walked quietly, peeked into the kitchen and saw the sexy bronzed man making some tea to accompany their breakfast.

'He looks so hot in his uniform' he thought to himself.

"Come and sit down for your breakfast you can stare at me from here" he said with a slight chuckle.

As Kakashi walked into the kitchen Iruka's jaw hit the floor.

'Ouch!! Surely this should be illegal? Kakashi looks way too hot for this time in the morning!' he mentally groaned.

The towelled ninja's hair was still wet and was dripping down his chest. Iruka watched a water trail fall down his chest, over his abs and then finally disappeared into the low rising towel which was showing his deliciously pale hips.

"You can breath now Iruka, and maybe stop drawling" he chuckled.

Iruka snapped out of his daze turned around to pick up the tea he'd made and handed one to kakashi. He smiled his loving smile and kissed the chunin as thanks.

"Now quick, we have to eat this and go" Iruka rushed kakashi to sit down, not taking his eyes off of the extremely hot jounin for a second.


"Kakashi Hatake, your late again!!" Tsunade moaned. "Iruka it's unusual for you to be late too" She said glancing back and forth between the two eyeing them up suspiciously.

Iruka blushed and lowered his head "I'm sorry, it won't happen again" he said whilst kicking Kakashi in the shin.

"Ow! Sorry" he mumbled glaring at the blushing chunin.

"Right Team one you have your orders, move out!!"


It was steadily getting dark. They had been travelling for hours and Naruto's non stop whining about food was beginning to grate on everyone's last nerve so Kakashi decided it would be best to set up camp for the night.

After some much needed food everyone bedded down for the night. An hour or so passed and the sound of snoring and sleep talking filled the camp.

Kakashi laid on his back looking at the top of his tent thinking about the confessions he made to the bronzed man. 'How quickly I've fallen for him. I mean insanely quick, I still can't get over the fact that he feels the same way' He thought.

A strange sound and then rustling coming from outside immediately broke Kakashi's thoughts, he reached for the kunai kept just under his pillow and made his way to the entrance of the tent. Just as he lifted his hand to the zipper it began to open from the other side. The copy nin backed up into the tent ready to attack.

A hand came through the tent and a body followed after, in a blink of an eye Kakashi had pinned the intruder to the ground kunai against the throat.


Sorry for the delayed updates, I've had a few family matters to take care of. But I'm back and will be updating regularly once again. (sorry about redoing the chapters about a zillion times but it just wouldn't go right).
