Notes: Okay, so I'm sorry I haven't updated in a long time; School really used up all my time and I really had to prioritize and push this story back so I could focus on finals and getting out of them by having an 93% trending in the class , which I did for all of them, but it's summer now and all the chaotic stuff has passed and I'm aiming to get more chapters out periodically :) Thank you to all who stayed and I'm so sorry for the wait!

Key Words: Slick; n; Submissive humanoids release a clear, sweet liquid from their opening when a desirable dominant is near in hopes that the scent will attract them and provide easy entrance when mating. Slick will also appear during their heat and when they are proud of their mate... that being said yes there will be a sex scene(s) in this fic but you will get a warning :)


"Are you okay, Naruto?" Kakashi said softly, he was currently standing outside the bathroom stall, little fox had locked himself in the handicapped stall, and wouldn't let Kakashi in. Kakashi's knocking got more incessant, "Naruto?" But the fox was silent... the man began to get even more worried, thinking of all the possible reasons for Naruto to ignore him; what if something happened and Naruto couldn't call for help? What if someone left the seat up and he fell and got trapped in the toilet? Lord knows it's happened before..."Naruto, move away from the door." Stepping back slightly, the human twisted his hips to kick the stall door in, the bang from the impact echoing through the bathroom.

Once inside, Kakashi did a quick scan of the stall and found Naruto curled up in the left corner of the small, cubic room, with 8 of his tails wrapped protectively around him, his 9th tail and his shaking hands were placed in between his legs. Hearing Kakashi come in, Naruto slowly lifted his head and opened his eyes, tears and confusion swimming through his ocean eyes.

"D-Daddy... What's wrong with me?" Naruto slowly lifted his arms, reaching out to his papa, silently asking him to pick him up. As Kakashi rushed forward to pick his baby up, he saw a clear substance on the fox's little hands. 'Is that? Kakashi knew about slick, but just assumed that Naruto couldn't produce any because he was so unresponsive to the other doms he had met. Dismissing it for now, the male wrapped his arms around the subs middle and rested him on his hip, rocking gently while whispering soothing sounds to calm the fox down.

A few minutes passed before Naruto brought his head from Kakashi's neck and sighed;

"I'm okay now." Naruto said softly, "Let's go meet them..." Kakashi saw that his boy was worn out, and no doubt tired.

"Why don't we re-schedule the dinner? We can have it when everyone has calmed dow-"

"NO!" Kakashi was startled, Naruto had never yelled at him with such insensitivity before. "P-please don't! I want... need to see him again! Please daddy let me see him again!" Naruto started rambling, shaking in Kakashi's arms, clutching his shirt with a vice-like grip. Kakashi quickly shushed the fox, and asked why he wanted to see Sasuke again, but Naruto stayed silent. Sighing softly, Kakashi sat the fox on the rim of the sink, and aided the boy in washing his hands, face, and inner thighs before walking to the exit, Naruto was uncharacteristically silent through the whole thing.

"I won't change the date, but you need to calm down." Tension faded from Naruto in waves with the promise of seeing Sasuke soon. A grateful smile on his face as he sweetly kissed Kakashi on his cheek with a 'Thank you daddy!'. The happy facial expression of his son gave Kakashi the reassurance that he had made the right decision.


Kakashi and Naruto came out of the Sub bathroom just as Iruka and Sasuke left the Dom one. Kakashi gave a polite smile, even though it was hidden under his mask, and nodded over to the exit;

"Just follow us, we'll lead you back to our place." Iruka nodded and gently nudged Sasuke out the door, paying close attention to how the dom's eyes never left the form of the smaller humanoid. When they got outside, Iruka suddenly turned to address Kakashi

"Can I talk to you first, Kakashi? ... Alone?" The white haired man seemed reluctant to leave Naruto alone with Sasuke, but the look in Iruka's eyes told Kakashi that the plan was exactly that. With a nod Kakashi gently placed Naruto on the ground and with one pat to the head Iruka and Kakashi walked off a few feet away, behind the building where they could both see the humanoids." I hope you don't mind, I'd just like to see how they interact without us... I would have waited until we got to your place but if things turned hostile I doubt you'd like to clean up the mess afterwords... at least now we can run away with them without taking responsibility." The brunette said with a small chuckle, Kakashi tensed at the thought of it becoming hostile, but in the end smiled softly at Iruka as the other man chuckled.

"Even though this dinner seems to have transformed to be all about our humanoids.. that doesn't mean I forgot about our date, my tan beauty." Kakashi whispered into Iruka's ear, and suddenly the two weren't as concerned about the two humanoids as they were about each other.

Things were a bit different with the Lion and Fox.

No one talked, they just stood there, staring at each other. Well, at least Naruto was staring up at Sasuke, the Lion, however, was attempting to eat the Fox with his eyes. A large gust of wind blew and the hem of Naruto's kimono lifted a bit, showing Sasuke the smooth look and color of the sub's inner thighs. The dom purred deeply and step towards the sub, a large hand clutching one of the Fox's hips and drew the rest of the Fox in closer. The Lion rested his head on the sub's shoulder, drawing deep breaths full of the Fox's scent.

Naruto cautiously took little sniffs of his own, when the dom noticed he smirked at the Fox, giving the Fox a little peek at his large, pointed teeth. The startled Fox attempted to get out of the Lion's embrace, but with a small growl; the Lion stubbornly held on top the Fox's hips, not letting him escape.

"Why do you try to run, sweet Fox?" the Lion was ignored, his body barely moving each time the Fox pounded his fists into the large chest. The Fox began to tremble, wondering where his father was, and why the human left him with an unbounded dom. After realizing he wasn't going to break out of the Lion's arms by force, the Fox began to try other means to getting free.

"Let me go right now!" Naruto huffed, looking Sasuke in his eyes for the first time since they met, something in them forced Naruto to freeze, the Lion's eyes are naturally dark, however Naruto could see something swirling in them, an almost red undertone as the Lion purred at the sound of the sub's voice.

"I like your voice, Fox... Speak again." the Lion urged, bringing his face closer to Naruto's. Up close Naruto could see and appreciate the manly face of the dom, his strong jaw set as he waited for the sub to speak, the small amount of redness around the corners of the black eyes that made Naruto confused, those were marks that Naruto usually got when he rubbed his eyes from crying too much. But why would the Lion cry? Slowly reaching a small palm up, the Fox caressed the side of the dom's face.

"Were you crying? What's wrong?" The Fox asked worriedly, his nurturing instincts rearing their head as he tried to comfort the dom. The Fox took the large head of the dom in both of his hands, and gently lowered it to his chest; bending the dom's back in a way that should have been uncomfortable, but the dom didn't seem to care as he rested the side of his head against a small chest, lightly padded for softness, as his sensitive ears listened to the soothing beat of the sub's heart.

Small, tan, fingers ran through dark hair, and a purr up rose in Naruto's throat. This was something he'd do to his father after a particular long day of work, or if a date went bad; this was something normal to Naruto and he was happy to provide comfort to the strong alpha. The dom moved his hands from the side of Naruto's hips and slowly lowered to place his large hands under the Fox's butt and thighs; cradling the Fox around Sasuke.

"Such a good little mate." The lion murmured, causing the Fox's heart rate to pick up and a warm, pink, blush to settle on his cheeks and ears. Naruto preened at the complement, a small line of slick traveled down his inner thigh but was stopped by the placement of Sasuke's hand. The lion visibly tensed, his grip tightening as he smelled the sweet smell of the sub's slick, he had smelt this in the restaurant, however Sasuke did not put the pieces together until now.

"Are you presenting for me? Such a good mate, good sub." the lion said, a warm tongue running down the space between Naruto's collar bone and up the soft line of Naruto's jaw, just as their mouths were about to touch, Kakashi and Iruka finally decided to come out of their approving stares of each other and turned their attention to the humanoids; seeing the two so close sprang them into action.

"Ah-ah-ahhh," Kakashi teased, scooping Naruto out of Sasuke's hands as Iruka put his hands over Sasuke's to get him to let go, " You guys aren't doing this now... we have a lot of things to discuss." Kakashi and Iruka signed, knowing that this was just the start, and that many things had to be done and reassured before they could even think about mating.

Kakashi and Naruto started their car at the same time Sasuke and Iruka got into theirs, within minutes the pairs were on their way to the Hatake household.
