Iruka couldn't remain focused on what he was doing, his whole class had noticed as well, so far he had repeated the same sentence on the chalk board. Tera stared at her teacher with worry filled eyes.
Mission?..Why am I so panicked over this? It's normal right? He always goes on missions, quite a lot since Naruto's been off training...But he has a child now..Oh god what am I thinking like? He will be fine!..It's not of my concern if he's assigned to a mission..Sighing the man looked at the board, sweat dropping when he saw the lines he repeated.
"Ah Sensei?" The brown haired man turned to look at Tera and heaved another sigh.
"Sorry...Just...How about we do some basic training outside?" The class cheered and rushed out of the room leaving a blonde girl sitting in her seat. "Tera?" The girl frowned and stood up stiffly.
"S-Sensei if that silver haired man is causing trouble for you..I'II..I'll..Take him down!" Iruka beamed a smile and beckoned the girl to come forth.
"Thank you Tera, but it's not Kakashi-sensei's fault.." The girl walked forward and rose a questionable eye brow. "I'm just a little..Tired.." When the girl didn't budge Iruka sighed and beamed at her. "..Honestly I am tired.." Shaking her head the girl just walked out of the room.
She's going to make a good woman when she grows up..

Iruka put his key into his door and swung it open gently.
"Welcome home.." The tanned man jumped and accidentally slammed the door shut when a pale masked nin popped out of the kitchen.
"Ah!..K-Kakashi!" Iruka hissed while holding onto his chest, the silver haired man smiled apologetically and held out a mug towards the brown haired man.
"I made you some coffee.." Iruka sighed and took the mug.
"Thanks...Now...What do you wanna talk about?" Kakashi nodded and watched the brown haired man walk past him and throw his bag on the sofa when he entered the living area.
"Well before I go on the mission.."
"How long for?" Iruka questioned as he plopped down onto a chair, Kakashi entered the living room and leaned against the door frame.
"I don't actually know...I'm being assigned as a body guard for a Daimyo-"
"Daimyo?..Don't they have ninja to protect the Daimyo already?"
"Yes, but there's going to be a big ceremony and I've been requested.."
"I see...Also..You don't know when you'll be back?!" Kakashi rose a silver brow from the odd tone of voice.
"No..I don't.." He repeated slowly, Iruka stood up and looked around the room with his mouth a jar.
"Well..I..Will you be back in time for the birth?" Kakashi sighed and closed his eye.
"That's what I'm not sure about, it's when ever the Daimyo wishes to let me go..That's why I thought we should discuss a few things..." Iruka scoffed and plopped back down onto the sofa.
"So all that you'll be here crap was a load of..Well crap?!"
"No..Just..I was assigned to the mission before I knew of this...And it's to late of notice to get someone else to fill in for me.." Iruka hissed and took another sip of his coffee.
"Well?..What do you wish to discuss?"
"Well..Just in case I'm not back, what's going to happen?.."
"What do you mean?"
"What are you going to do?.."
"I..I don't know..I don't know yet.."
"Are you going to let people know it's my child? Or your 'lovers'?"
"I don't know...Obviously I can't say it's my fake lovers child..." Taking another sip of coffee the brown haired man heaved a sigh and closed his eyes. "When are you leaving?"
"Early in the morning..."
"I see.." Shuffling a little Kakashi breathed a sigh.
"However...I've asked Tsunade-sama to send an emergency return notice before your due...Whether I'm allowed to go or not is up to the Daimyo.." Iruka frowned and remained with his eyes closed.
"I see.."
"Iruka..Just..If I'm not back..Let me know what your doing..I still wish to be in my child's life.." Iruka nodded and heaved a heavy sigh.
"Sure..Well..Take care on your mission Kakashi..I have marking to do and I'm exhausted.." Kakashi blinked from realizing something was missing.
"Wheres the cheese?" Iruka opened his eyes and rubbed his temples,
"I gave the collection to the kids..I've kept some though..Just..Left it in the school fridge because I had a lot of heavy scrolls and paper work to carry home today.." Kakashi's silver brow twitched and Iruka looked over at him.
"..You..You.." Heaving an annoyed breath Kakashi put up a hand and turned around, "Never mind, I'll see you then...Oh!" Iruka raised a brow and stood up to show the man to the door. "Here.." Kakashi put his hand in his pouch and took out his wallet, taking a big stash of money out and handing it out towards the tanned man.
"Eh?" Iruka stared at the currency with confusion.
"Even though you basically cleaned out my wallet with the huge collection of cheese THAT you didn't bother to keep...Here, this should be enough to support anything you may need for the child.."
"I can't accept th-" Iruka began but was interrupted when Kakashi forcefully put the money in his hands.
"Accept one gift I give...Please? You do know it's rude to not do so..." Iruka sighed and nodded.
"Did I offend you with not accepting all the cheese?" Iruka joked and chuckled, but slowly stopped when seriousness lingered in the pale mans visible eye.
Geez...
[------------------------------------------------------------ ^.^ -------------------------------------------------------------]
Kakashi strolled down the street and sighed as he stopped in his tracks. looking back towards Iruka's window he watched the shadow of the tanned man dance on the closed curtains.
Take care Iruka...
[------------------------------------------------------------ ^.^ -------------------------------------------------------------]
Sun shone onto a tanned slumbering face, trying to fight the ray of light an arm tried to block the sleep disturbing rays away from the sensitive eyes that were now half open.
"Urgh.." Came Iruka's groan as he turned onto his other side, his eyes slowly sliding shut.
Eh..wait that can't be right..Snapping his eyes open once more the man took a look at his clock.
"I'VE GOT TEN MINUTES UNTIL CLASSES START?!" jumping out of bed like a cat Iruka groaned in pain, one hand appearing to nurse his sore back.
"S-Shit.." Trying to straighten up the man groaned in pain once again. "Oh Kami..My back..." Slowly glancing back at the clock Iruka sighed.
Deal with it...your a man! Take the pain!..Iruka thought as he plucked up the courage to straighten his back.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.."
[------------------------------------------------------------ ^.^ -------------------------------------------------------------]
"Iruka-sensei? Is that you?" Ino asked while looking at a man looking incredibly pale and irritated. To her discription he looked more like a suspicious old man with his back all bent and a walking stick. Iruka turned to look at the blonde Kunoichi and gave a twisted smile full of pain. "E-Erm...Are yo-Do you need any help?"
"Hmm..I need pain killers.." Ino looked around and noticed that everyone else was staring at the chubby man in a weird way as well.
"Erm...If your hurt that badly...Maybe you shouldn't go to work today..."
"No I have to...Just..I need to see the Hokage.." Ino sighed and stood in front of the man.
"Iruka-sensei! As a medic in training I demand you listen to me.." Iruka smiled at the girl. "I know what! I could give you a massage..Maybe that will help!"
"I..I couldn't possibly.." Ino grinned and began shoving the chubby man towards her flower shop entrance.
"Don't worry, you will keep your clothes on sensei! Maybe all this added weight your putting on is the cause of your pain!" Iruka mentally groaned.
If only you knew what else this 'added weight' puts me through..
"Alright then..After that I'll ask Tsunade for advice on whether I should call in sick today.." Ino nodded and guided the man into the back rooms.
[------------------------------------------------------------ ^.^ -------------------------------------------------------------]
"Iruka?.." Questioned the busty blonde sitting at her desk a fine brow raised from the man almost collapsed on her floor, Shizune rushed to Iruka's side and grimaced from the others obvious discomfort. "What happened?" Iruka looked up and paled.
"I woke up to extreme backache...Ino offered a massage.."
Definitely have to block them painful memories..Tsunade chuckled and moved out of her chair to go and pick the man up.
"Alright then..Take off your vest and shirt.." Iruka nodded and done as he was asked, "Shizune go guard the door, anyone who needs me tell them to come back in..The afternoon.." The black haired assistant rose a brow. "..Hey even the Hokage needs a break.." Sighing Shizune nodded and walked out of the office. Iruka watched as the blonde beckoned him to sit on the edge of her desk.
"May I ask what your going to do?" Tsunade nodded and lifted her hands.
"I'm going to check were else is sore.."
"Why?"
"To see if your getting the same results a woman would during pregnancy.." Iruka nodded and shivered when cold hands touched his torso, soft fingers pressed lightly around his chest, the pressure getting greater and greater until:
"Ow!.." Pulling back the woman smirked.
"Alright..For a woman her breasts hurt..A lot..Your going to experience the same pain apparently.."
"Apparently?.." Iruka said while rubbing his sore chest.
"Well..I don't know my own strength sometimes..Haha!" Iruka laughed nervously and watched the woman lift her hands again. "Well lets see what else you find sore.."
Why do I have a feeling I'm going to feel worse than what I was?..
3 months later...[------------------------------------------------------------ ^.^ -------------------------------------------------------------]
Iruka stood in front of his mirror and groaned at the defined baby bump on his stomach, Kakashi still hadn't been sent back but he seemed to be writing to the tanned man everyday or when he could find the time to write a letter. Sighing at the obvious abnormality of a man having a pregnant stomach Iruka turned towards his doorway.
Tsunade-sama said that I might have to have a c section at an early stage..And just my luck, news of Naruto coming home earlier than planned came to us..I've had to take leave off teaching because of my obvious bump and wearing these thick, huge jumpers in this heat wave makes me not want to go out...Groaning the man waddled into his kitchen and opened the fridge.
"I really need to buy some food though..." Heaving an exhausted sigh the chubby man made his way to the front door.
Making his way down the street the man looked at all the buildings with a smile on his face.
"Ah Iruka? Umino Iruka?" Blinking the chubby man turned to look at a familiar face.
"Jun?.." The chocolate brown haired woman with tribal markings on her face smiled warmly.
"Hey old team mate..." Swallowing thickly Iruka took a step back. "..I've come back to go on that date you asked me out on...ages ago.." Blushing Iruka tried to straighten his thick jumper.
Jun..My first love..
