Iruka sighed as he sat across from Genma. There was nothing there. Sure, Genma was hot, but just in the way strippers are. They're gorgeous to look at, easily lusted after, but once you get them…you don't want them anymore. And Iruka was ready for this date to end.
He sighed once more as he leaned back, continuing to listen to Genma's "interesting" story. Insert eye roll. Seriously, he read the report; he knew how he got that large cut on his back.
"And as the blade swung by, it grazed my ribs, breaking skin and smashing one of my ribs to practically dust. Another rib had actually managed to pop completely away from my rib cage and was sticking out of the rib. I was certain I was going to lose internal organs, but somehow, they all stayed in." He shook his head, the silver of his Hitai-ate shined brightly in the fluorescent lights.
Iruka nodded. "I heard it was bad." Worse for me. He frowned as that thought ran through his head. Aw, damn. He was being mean. He wasn't giving Genma a chance. He was probably a very nice guy with good looks. Just like Kakashi. Mmm. Kakashi. wonder what he's doing.
Iruka's eyes widened as he realized where his thoughts went. NO! He and Kakashi were not friends. The man…Was gorgeous. And entertaining. And fun to talk to. He sighed heavily before his head hit the table, interrupting another story of Genma's.
He really, really liked Kakashi.
"Iruka? Is everything okay?"
"I'm sorry. This is a big waste of our time. I'm so sorry." He huffed, pushing the tablecloth away from him.
"Why? I thought you liked me."
Iruka opened his mouth to say something when Genma cut in. "Or is it the fact that I don't have silver hair, a mask, no depth perception, and a complete disregard of time?"
Iruka looked up at Genma sadly. "Maybe?"
Genma chuckled. "Yeah, I figured as such." He shook his head. "Why do you like him so much? He's kinda a jerk."
Iruka rolled his eyes. "Not me. He's really nice. Except these last few days." He frowned as he thought back. "He was supposed to come over to my house last night, but he didn't. It was weird." He looked up at Genma. "Any clue as to why?"
Genma shook his head. "Nope." He shrugged as he stood up. "But come on. Since we aren't enjoying each other's company, we should go do friend type stuff." He smiled like he normally would. He had no problem with the fact that Iruka didn't want him. It was actually better. Then he could still remain friends with both Iruka and Kakashi.
Besides, seeing Kakashi lose it was epic. Even if he was on the other side of all that epicenes.
Kakashi raised an eyebrow as he got hit in the face by an orange legwarmer. Who the hell had given Gai something to drink? He was worse than his student when it came to who was the bigger lush. Then again, that had been one strong looking drink Anko had been carrying.
He shook his head though, as he saw Anko coming closer to him with a similar drink. It was like she could tell when someone was feeling down and wanted to be alone. Then, after she sensed this, she piled them bladder full of alcohol and made them spill whatever it was that was making them sad/emo.
He was not falling for her tricks again. He let her get away with it once.
Once was too many for him.
"Come Kakashi. Spill the beans. What's got your eye so sad?"
Kakashi did not want to talk about it. He did not want to talk about, or even think about, Iruka on a date with Genma. Genma, the stupid senbon sucker. Yeah, he liked to suck senbons. What else did he like to-?
"Kakashi! Hey! Answer me!"
Kakashi only came back to the present as a shot glass hit him. In his eye. The good one.
He tried to glare at Anko, but when tequila's in your eye, it's kinda hard to do much seeing, let alone glaring.
"Ah, look! He looks even more Asian than a ninja!"(1)
What? Oh no, she was dead. He was going to strangle her when he could find her. Bitch.
"Leave Kakashi alone. It's not his fault his current obsession has decided to date other people."
What the hell? Was it Ridicule Kakashi day? It had to be. That was the only reason why Asuma would be such a dick and tell his reasons and frustrations.
Note to self: no more drinking with Asuma.
Iruka laughed as he was regaled with stories about Kakashi. He liked this more. Talking and hanging out with Genma was better than dating him.
"And, the dork that he is, just answered, 'We got lost on the road of life.'" He gave a stupid look. "Really? After everything you could have said, you say that? I glared at Kakashi and came damn close to knocking him in the back of the head. But, even if he was a dummy, he was always good and fast." He shivered in slight fear. "So fast. He makes fast people look…not fast." He shook his head as he nudged Iruka slightly. "That doesn't sound good for your sex life."
Iruka blushed as he said this. Why was Genma talking about his sex life? And what did he mean by that? Did he think Kakashi was done in a manner of minutes? "Why do you think Kakashi is fast in bed?"
Genma chuckled. "You're not denying it? Ok."
Iruka's eyes widened as he realized what he said. "No, that's not what I meant. I-"
"No, don't say another word. I get that Kakashi is old and you know. Old people have issues. But now, they have pills for that." He winked at Iruka. "If you need any, don't hesitate to ask."
Iruka blushed as he shook his head. "We won't need that." He blushed deeper as he realized how that could have sounded.
Genma laughed. "Keep the thought in your mind though." He laughed and shook his head. "Hey, let's go into that bar there." He pointed at a bar. "Come on." He took Iruka's hand ad lead him into the bar, knowing full well who was in there. He had the same friends as this certain person.
Kakashi looked at the door as he heard people start saying hi. He had thought all the usual people were there, but apparently…
…
…
…
What.
The...
Fuck!
He growled as he saw Genma come in, towing a blushing Iruka after him. What the hell was going on? Wasn't it bad enough that he had let Iruka go on a date with him, but now, Genma had to flash it around in his face? What the hell!
He cleared his throat and turned to the bartender, ordering Iruka a drink. He was going to act nice. He was going to be cordial and sweet, and normal.
And once Genma was far away enough, he was going to steal Iruka back.
Great plan. Now, how to get Genma away from Iruka…
He smiled, took the drink, paid, and made his way over to Genma and Iruka. He smiled as he set the one drink down in front of the darker man. "Hey Iruka. I heard you came in." He smiled casual under his mask, making sure Iruka could tell he was smiling before he turned and looked at Genma. He nodded cordially before reaching to another table and taking a chair. Time to talk to Iruka.
He leaned closer to Iruka, effectively blocking Genma completely from his view. He softly asked the tanned man, "How have you been? I haven't seen you in a few days. I hope you've been good." He smiled as he moved closer.
Iruka frowned. Men were weird. Kakashi didn't show up at his house and was now acting as though it was just something that happened. No. No way in hell was Iruka going to let that happen.
"I could ask you the same thing. You know, sine you slept by yourself."
Kakashi's eyebrow twitched. Was Iruka mad? Why? He wanted to go and kiss disgusting whores and….He cleared his throat, effectively clearing his mind of those thoughts. "Yes, I was alone last night. But I figured I wasn't wanted." He felt his eyebrow twitch again as he narrowed his eyes slightly. He was not in the wrong here.
Iruka frowned. What? He not want…Oh, hell no. Kakashi was not going to flip this on him. "Why would think that?" He narrowed his eyes as well, determined not to let Kakashi win this fight. He was in the right. Kakashi had to apologize.
Kakashi chuckled as he sat back in his hair, allowing Genma to be seen. "Well, it does have to do with a blond whore. Oh, sorry Genma." He made his face look like he was sorry, while in actuality, he was thinking of how he could manage to shove that annoying senbon into his throat.
Iruka growled. "What does he have to do with anything?" What was this crazy old man talking about?
Kakashi couldn't help the scoff of shock. He was seriously going to act as though he did nothing wrong? Oh no. "Look where we are. In a bar. You know why? Because you went on a date."
Iruka's mouth dropped. What? He was mad about him going on a date? The asshole. "You're an asshole! First, you never said you wanted to be exclusive." A loud scoff came from cloth covered lips. "And second of all, you never showed you cared if I went out with him."
Another scoff came out. "Did you not see his face? It was because of you!" He stood up, angry. How dare he say he never showed he cared. He fucked Genma up because he talked too much. He'd do it again if he had the chance.
Iruka stood up too. "So, you blame kicking his ass on me?" An affronted, "Hey!" was heard from behind Kakashi, but no one paid attention to the owner of the voice. "What the hell did I do?"
Kakashi's eye was so wide, his eyebrow had hidden in his hair. "He was talking about screwing you! No way in hell was that blond whore going to touch what's mine!"
Iruka's eyes widened slightly. What?
"And how dare you say I don't care? I care more than I want to!" Kakashi panted slightly as most of his anger left him. He was so mad. He needed to get away from the tanned man soon, or else he'd lose it.
"Well, since this relationship's over, does that mean I can have Iruka all to myself now?"
Iruka had forgotten there was anyone else there in the bar, seeing as he had been making a scene. But as he heard Genma's comment, he knew it was going to get a lot worse.
And sure enough…
Kakashi growled and whirled on Genma, knocking him over with one punch. He turned back to Iruka and lifted him on his shoulder. He turned back around to Genma and moved so he could look down at him. He placed his hand directly on Iruka's ass and said forcefully, "MINE." He poofed out of there, leaving Genma bleeding again.
Iruka would be angry about how everything turned out, later. And he'd definitely be angry about being treated like a possession. And he'd definitely pretend to be mad about having his ass slapped in public.
But…at the current moment…with Kakashi's tongue shoved down his throat, clothes being ripped, he didn't care. He was being claimed.
