Recap:

She cupped his face in her small dainty hands and turned it towards her, smacking her rosebud lips directly over his.

Gaara's eyes widened.

Baki clutched his chest.

Temari fainted.

Next to Kankurou.

CHAPTER 9: ALL BECAUSE OF A KISS (PART 2)

"Tomato Freak."

"Duck Butt."

"Ugly tomato."

"Duck-tard."

"Red. Face. Freak."

Hinata twitched.

"Gay. Emo. Duckling."

Sasuke twitched.

"STUPID STUTTERING TOMATO FREAK!"

Hinata twitched.

"SUPER MORONIC SEXIST EMO!"

"SUPER STUPID UGLY FREAK TOMATOOOOO!!" Went another octave.

"SUPER MEGA ULTRA GAY MORON DUCK BUTTTTT!!" Going up another notch.

"So Kakashi, how are you going to handle that??" Izumo looked at sighing Kakashi.

"Ebisu will handle them. Its his jurisdiction, after all."

"Oh no you won't, Hatake Kakashi!" Ebisu yelled at the silver-haired jounin as he emerged from the corner. "We have decided for you and Anko to take full responsibility for today's event, and that includes their punishment. After all, the two of you have been appointed as their guardians in this camp."

"Well, Anko can take the responsibility, they listen to her."

"Not so fast, Kakashi-senpai," Ebisu raised his shades higher. He was grinning. "You and Anko will have to monitor them, separately from the rest of us. Meaning that, both of you will be spending more time together."

"Meaning?" Kakashi doesn't like the sound of it.

"Meaning that, you and Anko will be sharing a tent together with your charges."

Izumo chuckled. "You need to get laid, Kakashi."

Kakashi sighed. Damn….I'm screwed…..

When Shuuna Rhai finished passing the instructions to her junior instructors, she suddenly felt a nagging feeling that someone was staring at her. Listening to her gut instinct, she turned around, only to find herself looking into a pair of soft brown eyes belonging to a Konoha Chuunin, Umino Iruka. The camp supervisor.

Iruka blushed furiously and turned away, fearing he might anger the beautiful kunoichi he came to admire at first sight.

"She's beautiful, ne?" Anko said, joining him at his table.

"Hai," Iruka sighed wistfully.

"C'mon Iruka!" Anko nudged him. "Just go up to her and ask her out for dinner!"

"Its not as easy as it seems, Anko. Besides, I'm not you."

"What is that suppose to mean?" Anko glared at him, picking her teeth with a senbon.

Iruka sweatdropped. "Err….I meant, I'm not as brave as you, Anko. You're not afraid to ask and no one ever rejects you."

Anko laughed. "Its more like no one dares to reject me!"

"Yeah," Iruka smiled. "Except Kakashi."

Anko frowned and then she grinned. "Kakashi is a challenge, and I revel in challenges. But one day, he'll submit to me."

"How sure are you about it?"

"Ibiki refused to make a bet with me."

"Then, he is a wise man."

"Hey!" Anko hit him on the arm. "Just go and ask her, idiot. She won't be here long. After this camp is done, she's gonna pack off back to Suna."

Iruka sighed. "I'm afraid."

"Of what??" Anko rolled her eyes at the timid young man.

"What if….she rejects me?"

"If she rejects you, she wouldn't be blushing herself to the moon, won't she?"

"Huh?" Iruka looked perplexed.

"Iruka," Anko sighed. "For a very talented shinobi like you, you're remarkably dense when it comes to this part of 'socialisation equilibrium'."

"What do you mean, Anko?"

"What I mean is that, I am willing to bet with you my entire S-rank savings that Rhai-san do like you back, idiot!!"

Iruka blushed heavily again. This time, he stole a look at Rhai only to find her staring at him and she quickly turned her head away. Iruka looked at Anko and she nodded her head.

"Will dinner and a stroll at the lake be adequate?"

"If the mood is right and the moon is out, it shouldn't be a problem for you, Iruka."

"Thanks Anko!" Iruka grinned sheepishly, walking towards the Suna kunoichi. He paused and then turned, looking at Anko. "For your information, Kakashi loves sweets, sake in the evenings and of course," Iruka winked. "He has fetish for bondage, blindfold and leather."

Anko blinked.

With that, Iruka left the feisty kunoichi to her wildest imagination.

"YATTAAAA!!" Anko screamed in delight. Thinking about all the things she would like to do to Kakashi when she get her claws into him.

Somewhere at the Camp:

"AAACHHOOOOOO!!!"

"Eeeewwwwww!!" Both Naruto and Sakura cringed in disgust.

"Gomen," Kakashi sighed.

2 hours later:

"Kankurou and Temari should be conscious by now," Baki said, putting down a scroll onto the table. His gaze fell upon his redhead student who sat by the window and looking out unto the star-filled sky.

"Baki-sensei," Gaara called out to his teacher.

"Yes, Gaara?"

"Have you ever kissed before?" Gaara asked without looking at his teacher.

Baki looked somewhat surprised. He knew how to answer Gaara no matter what his questions were, but such questions like these, he simply do not have the answer. Even the thought of Gaara and the word 'kiss' seemed odd enough, the mere idea of them in the same sentence is hardly believable.

Perhaps….Hmmm….much is yet to be seen. Baki thought for a moment.

"Why are you taking a long time to answer, Baki-sensei?" Gaara looked unemotional.

Much Baki wanted to hope for, but Gaara was still….

"Can't answer my question, sensei? Or are you afraid to answer?"

"Its not that, Gaara," Baki sighed, taking a seat.

"Why is that?" Gaara turned to face him. His expression was clearly impassively expressionless.

"Kissing and being kissed is two different thing."

"Hn."

Baki raised an eyebrow. "You seriously want me to explain this to you?"

"Hn." Gaara's expression was impassive as ever.

Baki sighed deeply again. Its not my place to teach him about the birds and the bees….

"Alright Gaara," Baki poured himself a cup of tea. "Kissing is like…uhh….expression."

"Expression?"

"Yes, expression."

"Of what?"

"Uhm…endearment or something akin to…uhh….love."

Gaara frowned deeply, "I hate love."

Baki twitched. "Ooookay."

"But, does that mean that Hyuuga girl loves me?"

Baki sweat dropped. "Well…"

"Since you said 'kissing' is a form of expression, and something akin to endearment, do you mean that she loves me."

"In a way."

"What way?"

Crap…. Baki swore. "Maybe the girl just likes you."

"But nobody likes me," Gaara's expression softened a little, but came back to his normal self when he glared at Baki. "Are you lying to me?" he demanded from his teacher.

"No." Baki looked solemn. Trying to look solemn, actually.

Gaara's cool aquamarine gaze held Baki's in place.

"How do you feel after she kissed you, Gaara?" It was Baki's turn to ask. Curious was more like it.

Gaara looked troubled.

Baki thought of several alternative escape routes until he saw something he has not seen for a long time since his student, Yashamaru took in Gaara.

Gaara smirked. "I like it."

Baki sighed in relief. "I'm glad that you do."

Gaara frowned. "What do you do if you don't?"

"Well, if you don't like the kiss, that would mean you don't like it."

"But I like….it."

"That is good."

"Good?"

"Yes. It shows that you like her back."

"Really?"

"Really."

"I like her?"

"Yes, you like her."

"Hn."

"How do you feel after the kiss, Gaara?"

"I feel…..warm."

Baki looked surprised. He note the brief pause in Gaara's response.

Gaara frowned. "What?"

Baki smiled softly, "It's a good sign."

Gaara turned away from his sensei and looked out the window. "I think its nice here."

"Hn." Baki agreed, leaving his most dangerous pupil contemplating to himself. Kami….there is hope after all….

"This is ridiculous!" muttered a very furious young Uchiha, tossing the sackcloth down angrily and glared at the surprised looking Hyuuga. "I can't believe you even agree with that stupid old man!"

"I did not agree with him!" Hinata lashed back. "It was your stupid fault that you got us into this stupid mess, you stupid Duck Butt!"

"My fault??"

"Yeah! Your. Stupid. Fault!"

"If it wasn't because of you being so stupid to go kiss that…that…..goth redhead…we wouldn't be here cleaning up garbage dump for the rest of the camp!"

Hinata frowned darkly. "What does kissing Gaara-kun have to do with you?"

Sasuke clenched his fist and glared ominously at the pale eyed girl, not missing the suffix –kun in Gaara's name.

"Coz..coz….he…he….he's from Suna, that's why!" the young Uchiha yelled out, trying to look convince at his blurted out answer.

"What has he from Suna gotta do with me kissing him?" she demanded outright, throwing her sackcloth down next to Sasuke's abandoned one.

Drats…. Sasuke cursed.

"Hmmm…..very interesting Sasuke-kun," Kakashi said out of nowhere and gave a little wave at them.

"Wha…wha..what…are…you….you doing….he…here, Ka..Ka..kashi-sensei?" Hinata asked timidly.

"Tch," replied the youngest Uchiha.

"Mah….Sasuke-kun, is that how you respect your teachers?" Kakashi grinned behind his mask.

"What the hell you want, Kakashi?" Sasuke demanded ominously.

SMACKK!! Hinata smacked the back of Sasuke's head with a roll of old newspaper.

Kakashi sweatdropped, wondering where did Hinata found a roll of old newspaper.

"What the fuckin' hell was that for??" Sasuke demanded, glaring furiously at Hinata and rubbing the back of his head.

"Don't be disrespectful towards Kakashi-sensei!" Hinata glared back. "You're being very rude! And mind your foul language, Duck Butt!"

Kakashi grinned wider behind his mask. He was beginning to like how this was going on. Both Hinata and Sasuke were shouting and yelling towards one another and it was something you don't usually see unless you put them in the same room.

Long before Hinata joined their academy, Sasuke was most impassive block of ice (apart from his brother) he has ever known.

Even Itachi knew how to smile once a while, but Sasuke was really made out of ice, as if he does not have a nice bone in him. Under Kakashi's valuation, Sasuke was very unresponsive to anything, including Naruto. And since Hinata's presence in their school, he has never seen Sasuke lost his cool.

Totally.

Utterly.

Completely.

Kakashi smiled. Wickedly. Underneath his mask.

He now knows what exact is Uchiha Sasuke's weakness. Pretty obvious, isn't it? Who would've thought? Kakashi chuckled.

He noted another presence nearby, but just chuckled at the thought of finding out Sasuke's weakness.

"What are you laughing at?" Sasuke demanded when he saw his teacher chuckling in amusement.

"Don't change the subject, Duck Butt!" Hinata waved her newspaper roll around like some kind of battle weapon.

"I'm not changing any freaking subject Tomato Freak!"

"Yes, you did! Now, what I tell you about 'respect'!"

"You? Telling me about respect??" Sasuke yelled. "What do you know about respect?? You act like…like…a boy and…and….a slut when you kiss that redhead!"

"That redhead has a name, you moronic duck!" Hinata huffed. "And his name is Gaara!"

"Gaara is a terrible name."

"Oh yeah?"

"Yeah!" Sasuke muttered. "Not as cool as mine! Uchiha Sasuke is a cool name," Sasuke smirked, fluffing his collar.

Hinata pretended to gag at the side when Sasuke touched his hair slightly.

"Gaara is a better name than yours, Duck Butt. Yours is like poison to my ears," Hinata fumed.

"Gaara sounds like some gay emo goth bastard to me."

"Well, at least his name does not have the word 'uke' in it!" Anko jumped down and walked languidly towards them. Her dark eyes glanced sharply at the silver-haired jounin.

Sasuke twitched madly.

Kakashi chuckled.

Hinata blinked.

"Mou….Anko-sensei," Hinata called to Anko.

Everyone looked at her.

"Hai! Hinata-chan?"

"What is 'uke'?"
