Hey! Once again, I wanna say a big thank you to those who have reviewed and/or added me to their favourite story/story alert list! I really do appreciate it! Please review and enjoy! :D
"Woo hoo!" Kakashi grinned. He loved this. Both he and Iruka were going to trick Neji into confessing he likes Shikamaru. Iruka shook his head. He never wanted to be in on this, I mean, it's other people's love life! Why do you want to interfere?! But if you know Kakashi well enough, he simply loves challenges like this ESPECIALLY if they have something to do with other's love life. Seriously, if I don't know them, I would have thought Iruka was the older one!
"Wow. You're excited sensei." Sasuke pointed out.
"He's got a screw loose in his head, that's all." Iruka answered.
"OW! What the heck was that for?!"
"For saying I was crazy. We're on a very important mission here!" Kakashi hit Iruka on the head. Iruka rolled his eyes. He now had no idea why he agreed on being his boyfriend.
0oo0oo0
Neji groaned. Again. Everybody has been asking him questions about Shikamaru. Unlike the latter, he had been choosing truth over dare over the last half an hour. He lied every single time (From the looks of this, he's much smarter than our Shika-kun…). But of course there has to be a time where all the lying stops. Sort of.
It was Kakashi's turn and he asked Neji, "What do you think of Shikamaru?"
Neji froze. He had no idea what to say. Lazy? Crazy? Caring? Grr… the pressure… "He's a fun guy." He said simply, refusing to elaborate any further.
"Oh. Then…" Iruka waved his hands in front of him. No. You. Don't.
"Have you done anything fun with Shikamaru?" Iruka's jaw dropped. He. Really. Said. It.
Well, I'm sure our readers will fully understand how Iruka managed to find out he was going to say that after this flashback…
A Few hours ago
"Iruka honey, what do you think I should say to Neji?"
"How many times must I tell you not to call me by mushy nicknames?!"
"Whatever. Anyway, how about I ask whether they have done it…" Kakashi raised his eyebrows up and down.
"What?! Kakashi, don't you think they're too young to do it?" Iruka gave his boyfriend a face of disgust as he thought of it.
"No. Remember when we got drunk when you were thirteen and…" Iruka immediately blushed. Grr… did he have to mention that?
"That was ages ago! Besides, it was Gai and Asuma who sneakily replaced our drinks with alcohol!"
Kakashi grinned. He looked cute when he blushed. But enough about this, back to the argument…
"So, should I?" Kakashi pleaded, is eyes wide open as if he was a good little kitty.
"No. Simple as that."
"Huh… PLEASE?" Whoa. Cute eyes much.
"No. Why did you ask me for my opinion anyway?" Iruka's heartless. With cute eyes like that… I would have said yes anytime of the week!
"RUKA! Please?"
"Nooo!"
Kakashi tugged the hem of his shirt and placed his lips tenderly on Iruka's cheek. Iruka's eyes widened, completely taken off guard.
But… Who cares?! Iruka liked it. A lot.
"So, can I?" Kakashi kissed his neck one more time.
"Err… Err…" Iruka was way too mesmerized to talk. Poor thing.
"YAY! ME LOVE YOU!" Kakashi yelled at the top of his voice, sounding like a little boy.
Iruka blinked. What just happened?
Back to the present
Iruka regretted it. Very much.
Neji cringed. Anything fun?! "No."
"Oh really? But I heard Shikamaru said you guys did and he really enjoyed it…" Iruka's eyes widened. When did Shikamaru ever say that?!
Neji's heart skipped a beat. Wha… what did he say? Like Shikamaru, Neji also liked him. Ever since they bonded with each other on that mission… He felt a sense of… I don't know. But that strange feeling… it wouldn't go away, no matter what. But… when did we…?
"What? Whe… when?"
Kakashi observed that Neji was blushing, his hands playing around with each other while his eyes wandered off every now and then. Good observations eh? He wasn't a Jounin for nothing!
"And he also added that he had a crush on you for a long time."
Neji managed to keep a smile from appearing. He likes me! His heart melted with joy.
"So?" he tried to appear as calm as possible. But…
"NEJI! This is good my boy! You finally made love! Don't appear nonchalant! This is great news!" Gai shouted before Neji could say anything. Iruka rolled his eyes. Gai was being obsessed with finding his true love for his three apprentices. Again.
Rock chuckled. His sensei was so enthusiastic.
"Go! Run forth my boy! Propose to him! Make him yours! You've your sensei's full support!"
"I, Might Gai, will give my heart and soul in witnessing your wedding!"
"I'll make the decorations, wedding cards and… oooh! The wedding cake!"
Neji raised an eyebrow. What's wrong with him?
"And, and, I also want to be the bridesmaid! Oh, no, no, I change my mind; I want to be the flower girl!" Gai danced around, pretending to throw flowers.
Gai did a nice guy pose. Sigh. As if Gai could be anymore enthusiastic (oh really? If Lee found his true love, he'll jump up and down and cry with pride and joy.).
Neji, Kakashi and Iruka sweat dropped. In fact, the whole group did. Man, he was more excited than the boy himself!
Before long, the game ended. Kakashi was happy even though he didn't get a verbal confession from him. Well, at least he got some proof that Neji had a crush on Shika.
"You were damn lucky Shikamaru wasn't there, if not he will not only kill you, Neji will too." Iruka chided his lover.
"Relax. We made it right? Oh and you left out the part where Neji will use the eight trigrams sixty-four palms on you, feed you to the lions and brawl your eyes out." Kakashi took a sip of his punch.
"What's the next game?" Kakashi asked Naruto.
"Heehee…" Naruto smiled to himself.
Iruka raised an eyebrow. He was curious all right. What other bright ideas does Naruto have…?
"Square dancing." Naruto smirked. If Shika and Neji knew what he was planning…
