The kiss burned through Kakashi, catching the dry bits of his soul on fire as it went. Iruka's lips were soft and warm and his teeth nibbled at Kakashi's lips, encouraging him to open them further. Happily he complied and felt his body tighten with desire when Iruka's tongue tangled with his own. Vaguely he heard the tea kettle begin to whistle, but he couldn't make himself stop kissing Iruka long enough to do something about it. Finally the noise became so loud, however, that Iruka broke away long enough to turn off the burner before quickly turning back and sealing his lips back over Kakashi's.

The Copy Nin decided that while it was nice to run his hands over the skin under Iruka's shirt, it would be much nicer to be able to see said skin. He pulled back from the kiss long enough to whip the shirt over the teacher's head, almost removing a nose in the process, and was rewarded with a muscled expanse of tan skin. He took a moment to admire the way the light gleamed over Iruka's chest, highlighting the darker nipples and fine white lines of old scars. He ran his hands up Iruka's back, making sure to graze over the wide scar in the middle, and Iruka arched again with pleasure. His hips bumped into Kakashi's, rubbing their throbbing erections together, and both men groaned.

"Bedroom. Now." Iruka managed to grunt out. Kakashi merely nodded and allowed himself to be lead there. They made slow progress, because they kept stopping to lean each other against a wall and kiss hungrily, but by the time they made it to Iruka's small bedroom, Kakashi had also lost his shirt and both of their pants were unfastened.

Once inside the moonlit room, Iruka paused and looked a Kakashi nervously. At first he wasn't sure what was bothering the teacher, but then Kakashi realized that Iruka wasn't sure which direction they were going to take. Would Kakashi…? Or maybe Iruka…?

Before the blushing teacher could attempt to put his question into words, Kakashi leaned forward and kissed him. As their tongues explored each other's mouths, the jounin thought about everything Iruka had done for him lately. He thought about the chuunin's sweet personality and strong sense of honor and duty, velvet over steel. He thought about how perfectly Iruka's body seemed to fit against his own and as he thought all these things, he came to a decision.

Stepping back from Iruka, Kakashi slowly peeled off his pants and underwear. He removed the last piece of clothing he had on, his eye patch, and languidly stretched out on the bed. Knowing the moonlight was gleaming beautifully on his pale skin and hair, he smiled slightly at Iruka, somewhere between a loving gaze and a sexy leer, and said, "I'm all yours. What do you plan to do with me?"

Iruka groaned as if in pain and Kakashi could see the lust making his eyes glaze over. The teacher let his loose sleep pants fall to the floor and stretched his body out behind Kakashi's. "I plan to make love to you, if that's quite all right with you," Iruka replied in a husky voice. Kakashi responded by arching his back, making sure that the cheeks of his butt grazed either side of Iruka's rock-hard erection.

Groaning again, Iruka rolled away slightly, fumbling in a bedside drawer. Finally finding the bottle of lube, he popped it open with one hand and coated several fingers. As one arm snaked underneath Kakashi to pull the Copy Nin's upper body against Iruka's chest, the other hand slipped between the pale cheeks to rub gently on Kakashi's opening. He hissed slightly as Iruka slowly slipped one finger into the tight passage.

"Am I hurting you?" The finger was slowly, oh so slowly, moving further into his body.

"No, it's just been…a very long time." Kakashi's voice was slightly breathless. "I'd forgotten just how good that feels."

Iruka chuckled slightly, his breath ghosting over Kakashi's neck and causing even more nerve endings to stand at attention. "It's been a long time for me as well, so I hope you don't mind if I set a new speed record this evening."

"Why, sensei! No stamina?"

Kakashi's laugh was cut off as Iruka bit down hard on his shoulder. "I told you not to call me that, especially not here," the teacher commanded.

As the finger inside him was now scissoring back and forth, Kakashi realized that Iruka had used the bite to hide the addition of another finger. The tan ninja slowly began suckling the teeth marks he'd left in the other man's shoulder and the sensation was so amazing that Kakashi felt his neglected erection weeping with desire. A third finger joined the first two. Thought became impossible and all he could focus on was the incredible feelings spiraling through his entire body.

Then the fingers were gone and, to his amazement, Kakashi heard himself actually whimper. "Shh, shh, just a minute," Iruka soothed him. Sure enough, after quickly coating himself with lube, Iruka, gently positioned himself and pushed into Kakashi slowly. The Copy Nin caught his breath, almost unable to bear the wave of sensation. Slowly, Iruka was moving so slowly. They were both panting from desire before the teacher was buried completely into Kakashi's tight passage. Then Iruka began to pull back out and that was incredible too. Kakashi didn't know how this feeling could get any better—in and out, in and out—and then Iruka hit that perfect spot and Kakashi screamed with pleasure.

"Ruka, please…faster…please," Kakashi heard himself beg and knew that he'd do it again and again if only this incredible feeling would continue. In response, Iruka pushed forward and up so that Kakashi was on all fours with the teacher behind him. Using one hand to control his thrusts, Iruka reached forward with the other and wrapped a strong, sure hand around Kakashi's throbbing penis.

Six hard, satisfying thrusts later, Kakashi felt himself coming harder than he ever had, spilling his seed into Iruka's hand. As he cried out in wordless amazement, Iruka followed him, warmth flooding into Kakashi. They collapsed forward, spent and gasping.

What seemed like hours later, when they could both move again, they helped each other up and stumbled off to the shower. Washing each other gently under the warm water, stealing kisses at every opportunity, they reveled in running their hands up and down each others' bodies.

Warm, dry, and exhausted, they fell back into bed. Kakashi pulled Iruka toward him, resting the teacher's head on his chest and giving into the desire to run his hands through the long strands of chocolate brown hair.

"Iruka?"

"Hmm?"

"How long have you wanted to do that? With me, I mean?" Kakashi wondered.

Iruka's face against his chest suddenly flared warmth and he turned his face into the pale chest in embarrassment. "Um…since the beginning of the chuunin trials," he confessed.

Kakashi was surprised. "Really? But I was such an ass to you."

"Yeah, but you were also really friggin' hot. Believe me, I was mad, but I was also turned on. Especially once I realized that you were right."

Kakashi thought about that for a moment. "I still shouldn't have been an ass."

"Well, that's true. But I think it turned out okay, don't you?" Kakashi could feel the corners of Iruka's mouth turn up into a smile. He kissed the top of Iruka's head in response.

"Kakashi?"

"Hmm?"

"Next time, will you take me?" Iruka asked in a soft voice.

Kakashi's heart thumped at the thought that he was going to be allowed more time with this incredible, amazing, beautiful, fiery man. "I'll do anything you want," he replied, "anything." Hugging his new lover closer to him, Kakashi felt them both drifting off to sleep.

Tsunade looked up from her paperwork when the second ninja slipped into her office. "Report," she ordered.

"Everything thing went as planned," Genma replied.

"They're together?" she asked.

Gai smiled. "Sleeping like babies, wrapped in each other's arms."

"And they didn't suspect a thing?"

Both men shook their heads.

"Good. Nice work, you two. You sure you don't want to be paid? This was an official mission and the client did pay to hire Konoha's shinobi to complete it."

Gai glanced at Genma and then both of them looked back at her and shook their heads again. "No," Gai said. "It was Our Pleasure to help Further the Cause of Youthful Love."

Genma nodded. "What he said. But, are you sure we can't know who the client is?"

Tsunade glared at him. "As I told you before, the client wishes to be anonymous. Deal with it." Her gaze softened. "Go on, get out of here. Take a break before I need you again."

After they slipped silently back out of the office, Tsunade turned to one of the windows. "You heard all that, brat?"

Naruto slid gracefully through the window to stand in front of her. "Yep! Thanks!"

Tsunade smiled slightly at him. "Anything for a client. But can I ask why you hired people? Why didn't you do the set up yourself?"

Naruto looked at the ground, his face reddening slightly. "They still think of me as a kid. I could see how Iruka-sensei felt about Kakashi-sensei and I knew that, if someone knocked some sense into him, Kakashi-sensei would like Iruka-sensei the same way, but they wouldn't have listened to me if I'd tried to tell them they'd be perfect together. I love them, but they can be stubborn."

Tsunade stifled the urge to laugh, settling for ruffling Naruto's hair fondly. "You did good kid. You sure you don't want to stick around, see them before you leave again?"

He shook his head. "No, they're still getting used to me being gone. I don't want to make that harder for them. I'll visit next time the old pervert and I are near here."

"How's he doing?" Tsunade asked, very casually, looking down at her desk as if totally unconcerned with the answer.

Naruto's eyes missed nothing, though, and he looked hard at her for a moment before replying. "He's good. Should I give him a message from you?"

"No, no. Just wondering. Keeping up with an old friend. You know." She waved her hand dismissively.

As he slipped back out of the window, Naruto looked back at her one more time and smiled slightly, a calculating glint in his eye. Then he was gone, back to his new teacher and his new life, confident that his old teachers were well taken care of.
