.:Chapter Seven:. (warning: VERY long! Sit back, and get comfortable if you plan on reading this in one sitting...)
My vision slowly came into focus as I awoke two days later. I gazed up blurrily at the ceiling. Wait... the ceiling? Then... where am I? I heard someone gasp and call sensei's name, telling him that I had woken up. The next thing I knew, there were two humans hovering over me. One was a lot taller than the other.
"H-Hnn?" My voice cracked into the open as my vision went in and out of focus.
"Kakashi... can you hear me? Kakashi...!" I heard sensei's voice, but I couldn't tell if it was really sensei looming above me.
"Sen...sei?" My voice was light. It matched my feeling of light-headedness. My vision finally cooperated with me and sensei and Iruka came into view, both still blurry, but distinguishable, nonetheless.
"He's awake?" I heard another voice say. Two other figures appeared above me. I tried to focus in on them, then I realized it was none other than Rin and Obito.
"OH! KAKASHI-KUN! I WAS SO WORRIED ABOUT YOU, DAMMIT!" Rin called and hugged me around the neck. It hurt so much I couldn't even describe it. For some reason beyond my comprehension, I couldn't voice what I needed to and winced, slitting both eyes. I felt Rin being tugged off of me. I soon realized it was sensei and sighed with relief.
"That's enough, Rin... Why don't you, Obito, and Iruka go outside for a second... I need to speak with Kakashi," I could tell Rin and Iruka were about to protest, but Obito, surprisingly enough, got the message and dragged the two out.
It was silent for some time before sensei spoke at all.
"Kakashi... I'm sorry..." He whispered. My vision was in full cue now and I could see sensei looked utterly depressed. I could tell he hadn't slept for a couple days.
"For...what?" I managed to say. He stared at me.
"I... I just... I let my anger get to me... I shouldn't have hurt you..." Sensei whispered, his voice seeming to cry. He stopped for a moment, then spoke once more. "Just the thought of hurting my closest student like that... it... I... I'm just really sorry, Kakashi-kun..." Sensei replied in a low voice. His words felt like a stinging breeze to my heart. It was true. He did hurt me. I just recently remembered there was a huge gash in the back of my head. Of course! I must be in the hospital! I let my limp and pained head fall to the right on the pillow and look to the side. Sure enough, there were medic nin everywhere. I whimpered like a puppy then I felt the searing pain from the back of my head. It shot through me like a bullet. I cried out in slight agony (in a low and unreadable voice) and grasped the back of my head. I suddenly noticed bandages were wrapped tightly around my skull and there was a big gauze where the pain was. It was soaking with blood. My blood.
"Kakashi..." Sensei touched me and pulled my hands away from my head.
"AGH! SENSEI! LEMME GO! IT HURTS BAD ENOUGH AS IT IS! LEMME GO!" I yelled at him, anger arising in my tone. I felt like crying again. I swear to kami-sama I have NEVER in my entire life been in so much pain. It was worse pain than watching Sakumo-sama commit suicide.
I tried to rip my hands away from his grasp, but he only held on tighter, forcing me to surrender.
"Kakashi! Stop it! The nurse said not to touch the wound! You'll open it again. Please, just cooperate, for once!" Sensei growled, forcing my hands down by my side. I sighed with aggravation, then growled some cuss words in defeation. I heard sensei sigh with slight pleasure and let my hands go.
None of us spoke for a bit.
"Kakashi..." Sensei started at what seemed like an eternity later. "What happened between you and Iruka back there..." I knew where this was going and I wanted to stop it.
"Look. What happened- wait... what day is this...?" I suddenly realized. I didn't know how long I had been unconscious.
"It's been two days..." Sensei replied slowly. I stared at him.
"TWO DAYS!" I screamed and jolted upright. That's when I realized true agony. "AGH! Holy-!" I grasped my head as hard as I possibly could, grinding my teeth in pain.
"Kakashi! Lay down!" Sensei yelled at me. My vision blurred and, for a second, I thought I was gonna pass out, but I didn't. My body just fell completely limp, for some reason, into sensei's arms. I couldn't even think straight. It was as if the pain had completely consumed me. "Kakashi! Kakashi, are you okay?" I could barely hear sensei's voice. My breathing quickened as I felt another set of hands lifting me off the bed. They felt like women's hands.
"Hn?" I still couldn't see straight, but I noticed a female medic nin had me in her arms. I closed my eyes and let my head fall to her breasts. If I had been in my right mind, I would have seriously blushed like crazy and apologized. I was blushing, but it was, as I was told later, from high fever. Turns out, I had been sick for some time now. Around a month and hadn't noticed it. It was from mal-nutrition, as I was informed. Figures...
"Get me a monitor and readouts on vital signs!" I heard her call. I felt my body being placed onto a nice comfortable bed. It was warm, which made me relax a bit. Suddenly, I felt icy cold things being pressed to my chest after they had removed my shirt. I also felt a mask come around my mouth. I was breathing something... something different. It made me feel all distant and there was this haze in my eyes that looked like a thick fog. Was this some sort of anesthetic? Hmm... this was interesting. I was awake... but I couldn't feel anything. Nothing at all... my entire body was numb! What the fuck was happening to me? Was I really all that sick?...wait... if I was sick... is that the reason I've been feeling giddy and needing for Iruka-kun?...no... I wouldn't believe that. Ever.
"Just leave him rest for a bit and he should be fine as long as we keep the anesthesia on him. Just don't let him move, though... He could rupture a whole new injury," I heard the nurse say. "Would you happen to know if the boys' been eating right?"
"I doubt it..." I heard sensei's voice next. "He can't afford it. He's been living on his own until just about a week ago when I took him in..."
"Oh, dear... Well, the child is skinny enough. It seems as if he's eaten barely anything in the past month or so... It's adding greatly to his fever and pain, I can tell..."
"Yes... I-I'll keep an eye on him..." Sensei responded shortly. I heard the nurses footsteps fading. I opened my eyes and tilted my head ever-so-slightly to the right and saw sensei standing there looking pitifully down at me. I heard a scream and a door being pushed open.
"KAKASHI-KUN ARE YOU OKAY!" Rin ran to my side, Iruka and Obito trying to hold her back, but not exactly doing so. She was about to glompf me, but sensei immediately snagged her by the collar of the shirt and brought her back beside him.
"Don't, Rin. He's in enough pain as it is. He'll be fine if you just let him be."
"But, sensei! I-"
"Enough."
That was the last I heard of their little argument. Rin, apparently, backed down. I could feel Iruka-kun's gaze on me. I was slightly overjoyed at the fact I couldn't speak right now. If I could have, it would have been very awkward between us. At least I could put if off for a while longer.
I put my head back to where I was gazing at the ceiling once more. I was afraid to let the anesthesia take me over. If I fell asleep, how long would it be till I woke up? Would I even wake up? I tried to so hard not to go to sleep. I did everything I could think of, starting with holding my breath.
"Kakashi..." I heard sensei growl under his breath. I let the air out and breathed once more, glancing sheepishly up at him. Obito giggled.
"Heh. Oi, Kakashi! You weakling! You look so pathetic!" He laughed. Oh, dear God. When I got out of this bed I was gonna smack the shit out of him. I growled behind the clear mask and glared the worst I could at my teammate. I really hated him making fun of me. It should be the other way around. Like it NORMALLY was. I suddenly loved Rin for what she did next.
"OBITO, YOU JERK! Leave him alone! He's stronger, better looking, and more mature than you'll EVER be!" Rin yelled, smacking him forcefully over the back of his head angrily.
"ITAI! Rin! That frickin' hurt!" Obito growled, rubbing his head. Rin crossed her arms, making her look dominant.
"You deserved it!" She yelled. I could tell Obito-chan would have hit her if she wasn't a girl. But, instead, he just blushed and looked to his feet after shoving his hands in his pockets. I smiled at that.
I suddenly noticed sensei was right beside me. He leaned over and whispered into my ear.
"Kakashi... go to sleep, okay? I'll make sure to wake you up tomorrow. Iruka and I will take good care of you, okay?" He asked me sweetly. I stared at the blonde with a slight glare, then inhaled deeply.
"F-fine..." I growled, and relaxed the best I could. Knowing Iruka-kun and sensei were gonna take care of me made me feel so absolutely infantile and weak, but for a reason unknown to the world, I liked that feeling. Iruka could take care of me all he wanted. With that last thought, my eyes suddenly felt heavy. I could tell the medicine was fully into my body. Suddenly, my eyes were closed completely and my mind was in dream-world.
"Kakashi... Kakashi, wake up..." What in the name of kami-sama was going on? It felt like there was someone shaking me.
"Kakashi-kun..." I-Iruka?
My eyes flickered open to find sensei and Iruka looming over me. It was sensei who had been shaking me awake.
"Hn?"
"Ah... good. You're awake," Sensei smiled down at me. Iruka blushed and smiled childishly.
I sat up, extremely slowly this time, trying to avoid any unnecessary pain. I blinked and looked around. I was in this GIANT room, apparently a living room that was the size of my entire house (when I lived with dad). I assumed I was in sensei's house again. I was on the couch, which felt practically as comfortable as a bed.
"Kakashi-sama..." Iruka cooed and sat down next to me, leeching onto my arm, leaning into me. I blushed and smiled as he closed his eyes and rubbed his head on my arm like a kitty. Sensei immediately pulled him off of me. I glared at him with an intense hatred.
"Iruka-chan. Kakashi-chan. I need to seriously speak with both of you," Sensei looked into both our eyes with a seriousness I had never seen before as he set Iruka into a lounge-chair to the left. I was about to get up, but sensei pinned me to the couch with his hand on my chest. "You stay put," He growled and let me go. I sighed, blushing angrily, and stayed where he told me to.
"Now," He started, sighing seriously. "Kakashi" Damn... me first? Why the hell was he pursuing me like this? "Tell me exactly what you're thinking you'll accomplish doing this to Iruka?"
I stared at him for a moment.
"This?" I asked, a smug tone in my voice and a smirk on my face. "I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about..." I laid down, putting my hands behind my head coolly, and smiled. Before my back touched the fabric, sensei yanked me upward and looked me straight in the eye.
"You know exactly what I mean..." He growled and threw me forcefully back onto the couch. My next breath came out in a shortened gasp as my body collided with the soft exterior. I coughed lightly and glared up at the older nin. What surprised me was he was looking sadly down into my eyes. I expected him to be glaring at me too...but he wasn't. So, I stopped glaring and sat back, avoiding his gaze.
"I... I didn't mean to..." I whispered. I could feel Iruka's eyes on me and I blushed extremely hard. "I... I just-"
"It was my fault!" What? Who-
I looked up and saw Iruka staring determinedly at Konoha's Yellow Flash, who cocked his head at the little shinobi.
"You're fault, Iruka?"
"Y-yes!" Iruka stuttered.
"How so...?" Sensei pursued. I was shocked. Just what the hell was Iruka thinking?
"I-... I l-let him d-do it to me. I-... I d-didn't m-mind, either..." The tan little nin stuttered, barely getting the words out. "I s-swear! K-Kakashi-k-kun h-had nothing t-to do with i-it!"
"I believe Kakashi was the one on top of you, Iruka-chan," Sensei stated calmly. Iruka was blushing so hard, his nose started dripping blood slightly. He sniffed and looked down with his eyes shut tight and whimpered. I could see tears dripping from his eyes. Apparently, he was way too embarrassed in this awkward little moment. But, of course, sensei knew how to handle it, like always. He picked Iruka up and sat down in his place on the chair, setting the little shinobi on his lap. I wish Iruka was in my lap...
"It's okay... easy, easy..." Sensei cooed, rocking Iruka back and forth lightly. I blushed. When had sensei ever been that affectionate? Why wasn't he ever like that with me? Gawd... now I'm jealous...
Iruka looked like he was gonna cry. It was as if he was eight-years-old again. But, he didn't cry. He sniffed and held the tears back with a great amount of effort. Sensei smiled.
"You alright now, Iruka-chan?" he asked, a sincere sparkle to his softened eyes. Iruka nodded pitifully and wiped his eyes, trying not to be obvious. Sensei leaned back in the chair, letting go of Iruka, who stayed sitting on his lap and staring embarrassedly at the floor. We were all silent for a moment.
"Well, then. I suppose what I did to Kakashi was punishment for the both of you, so I'm not going to directly lecture you," Iruka and I blushed. "But, I will say one thing and one thing only. If I ever find you two doing anything like that again, I will separate you permanently. Understood, you two?" We both gulped, but nodded. Sensei picked up Iruka and set him onto the chair after getting up himself. "Now... I will, however, be separating you two for this month-"
"WHAT!" We shouted at the same time. An entire month without Iruka-kun? That wasn't right! I couldn't stay away that long!
"Understood?"
"NO!" I shouted. "How do you possibly expect me to-"
"It's not you're call, Kakashi!" Sensei yelled at me firmly. I knew I had to back down. Frankly, I was scared of sensei. Scared of what he could do and what he would do. It just made me shiver thinking of his awesome strength and speed. There was no way in hell I could win against him. He sighed aggravatedly and rubbed his temple. "Look, you two. I can't possibly let you near each other after that little incident! I can't even imagine what else you two could possibly do! It's just not right!"
"B-But..." Iruka stared when he realized I had backed down. I immediately got a plan and cut him off.
"Y-you're right, sensei... it was wrong of us... we understand,"
"What! But, Kakashi-kun!" I eyed Iruka with a signal to stop. He stared at me in stupor. I looked back to sensei, who was glaring at me with suspicion.
It was now late in the night. Probably, I guessed, a little after midnight. I was in the room sensei had given me. I had tried to sleep up until now. I had to put my plan into effect and I had to do it now, while sensei was asleep.
I slowly slipped out of bed and went to the door silently. "Damn..." I whispered. Sensei had locked the door. So, I went to the window and tried that. It opened up and a cool breeze flowed into the room as the night sky shown down on me. I breathed in the fresh night air and exhaled relaxedly. It was like a narcotic drug.
I looked down to notice that I was up on the third floor. It was a long ways down, but I think I could survive it if I jumped, so I did.
Jesus Christ. That was the absolute stupidest thing I had ever done since the incident with Iruka. I seriously thought I had broken my ankle, but I didn't care about that now. I had to get Iruka. I knew he was on the second floor, so that made it easier for me. I got to his room and felt my way around to the window to the room below his room. I looked up and saw Iruka's window. It was slightly out of my reach if I jumped. So, I tried the first thing that came to mind. I threw rocks at his window. One of them hit the window square on and made a loud klang. I flinched, thinking I might have woken sensei up, but didn't see any signs of movement within the house. Apparently, it was only loud on the outside.
I growled at the fact that Iruka was still sleeping and decided the next thing that came to mind. I tried to find some vines to climb up. But, to my dismay, sensei had maids and extra "hands" that kept the place spiffy. I needed to find some way to reach Iruka. So, I decided that I had to go into the front door, which was probably locked.
I ran around to the front and tried the door. Locked. I growled every cuss word I could possibly think of with anger, then punched the cement wall with my fist, leaving a slight dent.
"That's it. I'm getting to Iruka or I'm gonna die trying!" I decided. Okay... stupid decision, but hey. I loved the kid with a burning passion. My entire life currently revolved around Iruka. So, I just had to get to him.
I stood back and prepared to ram the door down. I made up my mind and ran straight at the door. To my utter surprise, the door opened right when I was about to run into it. Instead of the door, my body crashed into another and knocked it down.
"Ow..." I growled, rubbing my head and sitting up to see who I had run into. I gasped. "I-Iruka! How did you-"
He shoved his hand over my mouth quickly and we sat there for a moment like that, listening for sound. After hearing nothing, Iruka removed his hand with a relieved sigh.
"You're an idiot..." He informed me in a whisper. I just smiled sheepishly and stood up. He stood, too. Our eyes met for a second, then we both looked away from each other, blushing like crazy. "W-What were you doing?" Iruka stuttered. I stared at him and suddenly remembered what I had just been doing.
"Oh... I was trying to get you..."
"But... But, Kakashi! Se-"
"What sensei said doesn't matter! I can't stay away from you and you know it!" I said and pulled him closer to me by placing my arms around his waist. He pulled back and pushed me away.
"We can't..." He whispered. I sighed.
"Not yet, that is..."
"W-What?" He stared at me.
"Oh, just a little plan I concocted! C'mon! Grab anything you need. We're running away..." His eyes widened.
"R-r-ru-"
I put two fingers over his lips and smiled at him in the darkness.
"Shh... Hurry up..." I whispered. He nodded slowly and ran up the stares to his bedroom. I giggled to myself. Who knew deceiving sensei was so much fun?
"Okay... ready?" I asked when Iruka had come back down.
"Y-Yeah..." He stuttered, giving me an awkward look. "K-Kakashi-kun..."
"Look. It's alright. When we become missing nin, we can do whatever we want whenever we want and never have to come back to Konoha. The place that our pasts were soiled..." I finished. He blushed, looked down, then stared back up at me with the most determined eyes I had ever seen. I blinked.
"Let's go," He stated firmly. I smiled. Finally... I'd be able to get away from Konoha and have sex with Iruka all I wanted.
I nodded and we both started out.
"Now, we're gonna have to move quickly," I said, after silently closing the front door. "It won't take sensei a long time to figure out where we're going. It'll take us all night and part of tomorrow to reach the border. Sensei could reach it in less than a second with one of his jutsus. So, he'll probably be waiting for us at the border..." I was working everything out in my head. We had to be ready for anything. "So... maybe we should take a back route..."
"But, that's not safe... we could get lost!" Iruka yelled.
"We won't get lost! It's not that hard... And even if we do, we can just keep walking straight until we get to the border!"
"What? B-but... that c-could get us even m-more lost!" Iruka cried. I sighed.
"Oh, hush... if I had time to rape you, I would..." I winked and leapt off into the trees, knowing Iruka would follow. Sure enough, he stood there for a second, then leapt up behind me.
The sun had just risen and we were pretty close to the border now. Becoming a missing nin wouldn't be that bad, would it? I had been debating it the entire time in my mind. Now, after thinking it through, I wouldn't have done this again if I had been in my right mind.
"Kakashi-kun!" I heard Iruka call from behind me. I stopped on a large branch and Iruka leapt down beside me and collapsed onto the branch, panting hysterically. "Can we take a break?" He gasped between pants. "I... I can't go any... any further..." I sighed, also panting, and sat down, leaning on the trunk. We had gotten ourselves pretty far into the woods now. I was sure sensei would never even think of looking off the main road, so I figured we were safe.
"Yeah... Just for a little while, though, okay?"
Iruka nodded and closed his eyes, still breathing hard.
About two hours later, my eyes flickered open and I looked blurrily around me. I suddenly gasped and sat straight up, almost falling out of the tree. I immediately caught myself and shook Iruka.
"I-Iruka-kun! Wake up, wake up!" I yelled at him. His eyes slowly appeared from under his eyelids.
"Hnn? K-Kaka...shi?" He sat up and stared at me. "Where are we...? What... what happened?"
"I... I think we fell asleep..." I replied unsuredly and stood, pulling him up with me. He was still slightly asleep, so he fell over into my chest and grabbed me around the waist for support. I smiled. "You okay, Iruka-chan?" I giggled and kissed him on the forehead. He blushed and stood up straight, wobbling slightly.
"Y-yeah..." He stated slowly. I smiled. He looked almost drunk to me.
"Ready to keep going, honey?" I winked at him. Iruka just smiled and blushed, nodding.
"I think so..."
With that, we were about to take off again, but were stopped by one little genin.
"Oi! The chase ends here!" It was Obito. He was pointing a kunai in our direction from the tree branch closest to ours. I stood in front of Iruka, who cringed and hid behind me, holding my waist, hugging me closer.
"Out of the way, Obito!"
"Gawd... You think you can just run off and become a missing ni while sensei, Rin, and I are on the watch? Ha! I already sent the signal to sensei and Rin and they're already on their way! In fact, sensei should be here any second!"
My eyes, along with Iruka's, shot open. "Oh, shit..." I thought with fear. "Iruka..." I whispered. "We gotta get out of here. When I say 'now', jump off to the left and don't stop until you reach the border. Got it?" He nodded and inhaled worriedly.
I then leapt straight at Obito with a kunai in my hand.
"I don't want to hurt you, but if that's what it takes to be with Iruka-kun, then I'll do it!" I yelled and tried to stab Obito with the kunai. He blocked it with his and jumped to the side. I landed swiftly and jumped back to Iruka.
"Kakashi! Don't!"
"Just stay here and don't move!" I yelled. He whimpered, but shut up nonetheless.
"Kakashi!" I heard sensei's voice and spun around just in time before he grabbed me, and snagged Iruka and jumped off. I calmly put Iruka, who was shivering with fear, down and stared at my teacher. Obito jumped beside him. "I don't want to hurt you or Iruka. Both of you just give up and come calmly over to me," Sensei called to us. I felt like a puppy.
"Not on your life! Now!" I yelled and Iruka and I sprung in separate directions, aiming for the border. I just knew we could do it... We had to! But... what if sensei caught us? I knew he'd come after me first. He'd probably send Obito and Rin after Iruka, who was weaker. I gulped at that thought and sped up some bit.
"Kakashi!" I heard sensei behind me. Oh no... he could go so much faster than me... and... he had that jutsu...
I flipped over, throwing three kunai in the process, and leapt even faster. I was literally running for my freedom. I was so worried about Iruka, though... he wouldn't be able to win against Obito AND Rin...
I suddenly saw a bright yellow flash in front of me and couldn't stop. I panicked and lost my footing on the next jump. I was gonna fall to the bottom. There was no way I could survive that fall.
I closed my eyes and prepared for the worst, but I landed on something soft and warm. I opened one eye and looked up into the face of my sensei. I gasped and tried to struggle free, but he had a firm hold on me.
"Lemme go! LEMME GO!" I yelled, struggling with all my might. He just held onto me even tighter.
"Kakashi! Urgh.. Kakashi, stop it! Stop it!" Sensei yelled at me. I tried to kick him in the stomach, but ended up getting myself loose instead. "Kakashi!" That was dumb. I was now falling right where sensei had saved me from. Wait... sensei had... saved me...?
I was about to hit the ground and tried to flip my body over. The force was slightly too much and I had forgotten all about my ankle that I hurt last night. My feet touched the ground, but with no force at all. In fact, it was only my toes that touched and they were just dangling from my body. I felt hands under my arms, holding me up, and tilted my head backwards and looked up to see an aggravated blonde holding me up.
"You're a real idiot, you know that?" He growled at me and picked me up, placing me comfortably in his arms as if he was carrying a baby. I blushed and looked up at him. I felt guilty, all of a sudden. He looked straight into my eyes. "Why? Why did you run away like this? You're dragging innocent Iruka into things that-"
"I am not! He willingly came along!"
"Oh, then that means that when you said 'We're running away. Go get your things', you were giving him a choice?"
I blinked.
"Wha-what? H-how did you..." My voice trailed off with my words and I shut my mouth.
"Oh please... You don't think I'd be tricked that easily did you? I woke up when you jumped out your window, which was absolutely ridiculously stupid, by the way," He growled. I blushed.
"Look... I-I..."
"Don't even try to talk yourself out of this one, Kakashi. Now, we're gonna go get Iruka, okay?" With that, he jumped off with me in his arms. I felt pathetic for the millionth time now, with not being able to do anything. But, when I found the opportunity, I'd struggle free and run for it with Iruka. I just prayed that he was alright...
We were about five minutes from where we guessed Iruka and the others were. I had to find a way out and I had to find it now. I looked for any sign of sensei's defense dropping, but, obviously, couldn't find any and sighed. "Damn..." I whispered. Sensei looked down at me and smirked.
"Trying to get away from me, Kakashi-kun?" He asked in an amused voice. I glared at him. "It's not gonna be that easy." I growled some cuss words under my breath.
I suddenly noticed that I might be able to push my way out of sensei's grasp if I could just get him to let up his hold ever-so-slightly. Currently, I wasn't strong enough to push his arm off of my stomach. I know because I had already tried multiple times.
"Sensei... why can't I be with Iruka-kun...?" I asked, giving him my most innocent and childish expression I could possibly pull off. He stared down at me and cocked his head to the right.
"Because... it's just not right, Kakashi... I... I don't understand why you're... you're ... feeling this way about Iruka... I know you're not gay... At least..." He stared into my eyes. "I knew you weren't gay..."
I blinked.
"I-... Am I?" I sounded so pathetic, but I seriously didn't know... I mean, why would I be gay, of all things? Why in the world was I feeling this way towards him? Sensei laughed. Dammit... he always laughed at me when I acted like this.
"Kakashi. How can you possibly not know? You're you, aren't you?" He asked me. I'm me? What was that supposed to mean...?
"Huh? Of course I'm me! Who else would I be?"
"You're not acting like the Kakashi I know..."
What? Not acting... like... myself? Was that even possible? I... I suddenly thought about that. And I soon realized that I wasn't acting like myself... I wasn't at all! For God's sake! I was about to run away and become a missing nin! Have I gone insane. My eyes widened at that incredible thought and I gulped. Why did I do all these stupid things? Why was I such an idiot!
"Sensei... I-I... I think... you're r-right..." I stuttered slowly, my eyes starting to form with tears. The only people who had ever seen me cry were Iruka and sensei. And I intended to keep it that way. I wasn't about to break down right here in the open. I couldn't...
Sensei stopped on the next branch and landed swiftly on the bark. He put me down on it and leaned my body against the limb. I stared up at him with a blank expression. He smiled warmly at me.
"If you really want to become a missing nin and run away with Iruka... I'll... I'll let you go... and won't stop you," He said. What? No... no! Why was he doing this to me? It was like the punishment I never had! "I'll call Rin and Obito off Iruka right now if you'd like..." His eyes were so pleading. I felt as if he was just daring me to accept. I gulped and opened my mouth, trying to speak, but closed it, noticing I had no saliva whatsoever. "Well?"
I couldn't move. I couldn't speak. I couldn't do a single thing. I just stared at him with bewildered eyes. Why? Why was he just letting me go with all that wasted effort? It... it wasn't normal! There's got to be a catch to this! Something's wrong...
"What's the catch?" I asked blankly. He smiled.
"It's because I know you won't," Sensei stated matter-of-factly.
"I... won't?"
"No. You won't..." He said. I blushed.
"Yeah, well what do you know!" I shouted juvenilely and jumped off the branch in the direction of the border. I'd show him!
I was about to go faster, but I stopped and noticed sensei wasn't following me. I stopped about five branches away from him and stared. He merely looked at me with painfully.
That's when I realized I couldn't do it.
What would my father think if he was still alive? And mother? And... Rin and Obito? What do they think...? Damn, I'm such an idiot!
"So... are you two going to try that ever again?"
We shook our heads.
"Are you two ever going to have sex again?"
We hesitated, but shook our heads.
"And will either of you ever even dare try to disobey me again?"
We shook our heads forcefully that time.
Iruka and I had been caught. Sensei carried us both back to his house in his arms, making sure we wouldn't get away. We were now both sitting in the living room. Sensei was standing over us, scolding us like any adult would do. I admit I felt guilty, but not enough to forget about my anger at sensei for prying me away from Iruka. I glared up at him. Iruka was looking at his feet sheepishly. Sensei just glared back, then sighed defeatedly.
"Alright... I've made a decision."
We both looked up at him surprisedly.
"I'm giving you one night together to do whatever you want..." WHAT! HOLY SHIT! DREAM COME TRUE! Wait... Oh, lord, someone pinch me! I must be dreaming! "But, only one night. Tomorrow, you will both promise me everything ends there. Understood?" We both nodded quickly and smiled each other. Iruka was blushing happily. He was just so cute... "But, Kakashi," Sensei started. Oh no... what now? "If you dare even try to take advantage of Iruka-"
"Oh, come on! You really think I'd-"
"Yes."
God... I wish I could argue with sensei. But, there was no point. I'd loose, anyways.
"Now, go and no hurting each other, understood?" Sensei growled, a hint of redness in his cheeks. I could he was imagining what we could possibly do. I was so happy! A whole night with Iruka to do whatever I wanted! Iruka looked happier than I've ever seen him before.
We went up to my room, it nearing ten at night, and locked the door. Iruka laid down on my bed and sighed long and happily. I smiled and laid down beside him.
"A whole night..." I heard him whisper. I rolled my head to look at him. His eyes were closed and he was blushing furiously with a smile on his face. I sighed happily and rolled over onto my belly, placing my left hand on his stomach and slipping his shirt slowly off. He giggled at my touch and let me rip it off eagerly. That was when I felt my seductive fanboyish yaoi instincts come into perfect sync with my movements. I knelt up and leapt on top of him, embracing his frail body. It was so warm and soft. I looked deeply into his eyes and he looked into mine. His lips were moistened and waiting for a kiss. I licked my own and viciously sucked on his. He wrapped his arms around my neck and tore my shirt off, now feeling down my pants. I slightly arched my back as he rubbed me. I licked his tongue and he wrapped his around mine. My warm saliva was seeping into his mouth all the while.
His eyes were closed as I rolled him over onto my stomach. He adjusted his hand around my ass and squeezed lightly. It felt good to feel the touch I had been deprived of for so long. I needed more. I needed sex...
"Iruka..." I slowly took my mouth from his and licked his bare chest up and down. He whimpered slightly as I placed my right hand in the same position as his and squeezed harder on his dick. I smirked playfully and tore his pants and boxers from his body. His breathing quickened ever so slightly as I trailed my tongue down to suck on it eagerly. I loved this...
"Ka-Ka-Kakashi!" Iruka whimpered. "Th-That h-hurts! L-l-let up a b-bit, will y-you?" He stuttered, panting lightly. I smiled as I granted his wish and felt an extension to lick anew. It tasted just like I imagined it. Perfect...
Iruka moved upwards slightly, apparently trying to get me to ease away even more, but I just bit down extremely lightly, not trying to hurt him, but trying to get him the message. He winced and let out a yip of surprise. Then he let his body fall limp. I smiled and rubbed my hands around everything I could touch. I kept sucking on it till Iruka literally pushed me off and landed on top of on the floor. He was panting hard and drooling ever so slightly. I smiled and hugged him closer. He whimpered and looked blurrily into my eyes.
"Kakashi...?" Iruka whispered.
"Yes, darling?" I already had clarified that he had to be the wife... I mean, seriously. Could you see me as a wife?
"I-I... can't... we c-can't..." He whispered lightly.
"Hn? What do you mean? Sensei gave us the entire night together! Don't you get it? We're free for an entire night to do whatever our hearts desire!" I claimed. It was true, too. Why didn't he get that?
"B-but... our genders..."
Was that what he was worried about? Gender?... actually, I had never thought of that... d-did it really matter that we were both guys? Gay marriages are allowed in the village!...aren't they? He could tell I was pondering this because I had stopped and looked at him.
"Kakashi-kun..."
It hit me. I finally realized why sensei was trying so hard to keep us apart. I finally realized why he had given us this one night together. It wasn't to do what we wanted. It was to make us aware! It... it was a psychological thing... and neither of us had caught on until now...!
Damn it... damn it all...
"Kakashi... why does it have to be this way...?" Iruka asked. He had caught on too. Without even saying it, I could tell by the look in his eyes. It was a hurt look. A look of pain and suffering.
"I... don't know..." I was fighting tears, now. It seemed that I cried a lot when I was around people I was comfortable with... then again, those people were only Iruka, sensei, and Obito... I didn't even cry in front of Sakumo-sama when he was alive...
I wrapped my arms around him and buried my head in his bear chest, sniffing lightly. I felt his warm embrace shelter my body and for the first time in my entire life, I felt insecure. Insecure about everything. About my life, about myself, about everything I've done up to now. Why was this happening to me? Why now of all times?
"Kakashi, don't cry..." I heard him whisper lightly into my ear. I couldn't help it! What was wrong with me!-? I was supposed to be the one comforting him, not the opposite! He was younger! It only made sense! But, no! Here I am, sobbing my eyes out into his chest while he tries everything in his power to comfort me. Why was everything in my life so screwed!
I suddenly realized just how tired I felt after about another half hour. My entire body was numb and Iruka was asleep beneath me. I couldn't take it anymore and kissed him one last time before I let my tired mind consume me. Soon, I would awaken... and I'd never be able to love Iruka again...
A/N: Whee! I finally finished it! -pant pant, wheeze- XD Uh... sorry it was so long and slow-moving, but I have the PERFECT idea for the next chapter (which I got in a dream last night) and, remember how I mentioned in chapter four that Kakashi had gotten drunk when he was little? Well, I did. And the next chapter is how it happens!-! Yatta! PLEASE review this chapter, because this took me forever to write... (And 17 pages in word... 0.0) Well, ja!
-I WILL update soon because the next chapter I already have planned out! Sorry it took me so long to update!-
