Cozzzy Corrrner;
I'm horribly sorry that my last few (pathetic excuses of) chapters have been short. I promise they will get longer (: Also Thank you to all my reviewers, you all are very sweet. So please enjoy loves! Oh! And it's will start off as Iruka's point of view, than switch to Kakashi than back to Iruka's. Sorry if it seems confusing.

All day. All fucking day my mind has been off in fantasyland seeing all the wonderful scenarios. That would have been wonderful if I didn't have to teacher monkeys, know as children, have noticed me being distracted and have decided to act much worse than usual. Little explain hmm? Like decided that paper kunai look best in Iruka-sensei's hair! Or how making sure every piece of chalk magically decided to disappear. Damn hellion wanna-be-ninjas. So, finally the day ended and they all ran out like they were just freed from prison.
As I pack up, and head out I come to a horrible realization. I have no clue what to wear. Trying my hardest not to stop in the middle of the market and pull out my hair, I quickly rush my journey home. Once inside my rather large apartment, I dump my massager bag and the stack of un-graded papers on the entrance way table, and quickly march to my bedroom.
A quick glance at my clock tells me its 5:30. So, that's an hour to shower and the rest of the time to get pretty and meet Kakashi. Sound reasonable, so quickly turning my clothes from a once prime and organized state to a complete hurricane. I finally decided on some dark wash jeans that have been shoved in the back of my closest, and a light grey button up. Don't to casual but not formal either. Happy with my outfit, I march off into the bathroom to prepare.

Kakashi
Pacing has seem to become the only thing I could do right now. I have been ready for three hours, unwilling to be late. This date had to be perfect! Tonight is going to set my fate with my wonderful Iruka. Yes in my hopeless secretly romantic head of mine he is mine already. Stopping myself from tearing a whole in my top floor, I sit on my bed and glance at the clock. 6:45… I should start heading out. As I walk down my stairs I hear aloud boom, looking out my living room window I can't help but groan in frustration. It's raining! It's fucking raining! Tugging at my hair as I resume pacing, this time it's the length of my living room. Stopping myself as soon as I started, I grab the umbrella out of the hallway closest and set off towards the restaurant, rain or shine I will not let this date go down the drain!
Iruka.
Dressed and ready to go, I'm just walking out my door, as it begins to pour. Like the sky was just waiting for me to get outside. Grumbling I turn back and march inside, to locate my umbrella. Once located, I'm heading back out and towards the restaurant.
Mendokoro Ebisu is a nice place; most people that go there usually go for the large portions of food so everyone can just share. So I can see why Kakashi would pick it out, its small, quiet and there is quite a bit of privacy.
So as I wait patiently outside for Kakashi, I can't help but be nervous. I mean, I don't get asked out often, just sent gifts by my upper-rank secret admirers. They are always very thoughtful and sweet, but I can't help but think if they found out infamous Kakashi asked me out. To engrossed in my thoughts I didn't notice the figure approaching so the light tap on my shoulder hand me jumping and spinning around ready to bash their skull in with my umbrella.
Blink up at a startled Kakashi, I couldn't help but blush and give him a small smile.
"So to scare you Iruka" He said with his eye smile and a soft chuckle.
"T-that's okay, sorry I didn't see you coming." I could help the blush that seemed to brighten.
He shook his head and gestured to the door, "Lets get inside, and it's quite cold out here."
With that said I quickly followed him in and looked around the place. It was nicely decorated in warm colors, booths were along the south side wall, and table and chairs filled the middle floor and on the north side was a bar and kitchen.
As they were escorted to a booth in the farthest corner, the two settled across from each other and looked over the menus. When a young waitress came over, the two order their drinks, both having tea.
"Would you like to share a dish?" Kakashi asked look up at me over the top of his menu.
"Sure. Everything looks good, so you choose." I answered with a smile.
He just eye smiled at me and looked back down at the menu. Soon enough the waitress returned asking for our orders;
"Yes we'll share some spicy tempura rolls, and some Yakitori." Kakashi answered.
She nodded and walked off leaving us to ourselves. Now some might some think, two people like Kakashi and I, wouldn't really get along. Yes, he has a tendency to tease, but we talk to each other quite a lot, but mostly about Naruto and the new batch of pre-genin. So to say conversation wasn't very hard; almost subconsciously Kakashi began telling me about Naruto's training and how please he seemed that Sasuke was back and recovering. I smiled and threw in a comment here and there, and soon we began talking about how this year's pre-genin seemed crazier than last years.
"It seems each year they get more insane." I laughed with a shake of my head.
Kakashi laughed with me, "Well I'm pretty sure I won't be taking a genin team anytime soon. I like have a lot of free time."
"Of course you would want extra free time." I coyly replied with a snicker.
"Especially with a new Icha Icha coming out." Kakashi replied in a childish manner.
I could only laugh at his happiness. I don't care for the books, but it's so interesting to see how the mention of the silly orange (or occasionally green) book could make him so happy.
Suddenly the waitress reappeared with our food, and we happily digging in. Little conversation is in-between chews and bites. As quickly as it came, the food is soon gone and Kakashi pays for the bill. By the time we head out it has finished raining, and the gentleman that he is, Kakashi offers to walk me home.
"I had a lot of fun to night." I say bashfully after a couple of minutes of silence.
"So did I. I hope I will be able to take you out again." Kakashi answers glancing at me.
"I would like that very much." I reply smiling up at him, to which he gives me an eye smile in return.
More comfortable silence falls over us as we walk through the deserted streets. The rain has left everything wet, so puddle dodge seemed happen quite a lot, and a few times left us pressed up against each other as we side stepped puddles. I can't help the blush that spreads over my cheeks and up to my ears as Kakashi's warmth wrapped around me.
Too quickly, in my opinion, we arrived at the stairs that led up to my apartment. We stood outside finishing up our last conversation.
"Well, I never know when I'm free, but I promise to make up that second date to you." Kakashi said as he rubbed the back of his neck nervously.
"I'll be waiting than." With that said I made my way upstairs, unknowing that Kakashi was at the bottom grinning, and skipping away.
