How about some M rated content for the next few chapters? It's been a while. (Also, I will be getting back to present day stuff, but certain things have to happen first for the future of the story to make sense). Thanks for the reviews!

"Love is so embarrassing.

I'm this awkward and uncomfortable thing.

I'm running out of places to hide it."

...

Kakashi's emotions were betraying him. He couldn't stop thinking of Shou and he really needed to deal with his crush on him. He'd been trying to deny these feelings for years, but it was only getting worse. He didn't know how to handle any of this since he'd never liked someone before and he was absolutely mortified with his sudden increase in fumbling in front of the older ANBU. His rampant teenage hormones were making things even harder for him and he always got so distracted when Shou got too close.

However, Shou had recently taken a solo mission that would have him out of Konoha for at least a month and Kakashi hoped he could use that time to get himself under control… Unfortunately, it wasn't working out all that well for him as he came to realize shockingly fast how much he missed his Senpai. He didn't really have any friends; Tenzo, Genma, and Raido, were just teammates and Gai was so annoying he wanted to scream bloody murder sometimes, so that left… No one else. Kakashi felt completely alone without Shou around. All of this grated badly on his nerves, he needed Shou and he had no idea when the older shinobi had become so damn important to him. When had he even started liking Shou? Perhaps it was that first night he'd shown up outside his Senpai's window and Shou had soothed him without even really trying.

Kakashi became increasingly anxious as the days passed; he and Shou usually worked all of their missions together and he didn't like the idea of nobody being able to watch his Senpai's back out there. He found himself worried about Shou and he despised himself for it. He felt like a girl getting fussy over her boyfriend and he also found himself blushing up to his ears when he realized he was using the terms "girl, fussy, and boyfriend" all in the same sentence to refer to himself and Shou. He would surely die of embarrassment before Shou even came home.

Speaking of home… He was most certainly not currently in Shou's apartment -don't you even suggest it!

Oh, wait…

Shit.

"I must be crazy," he said aloud to himself as he stood in Shou's bedroom. "And he promised me I wasn't!"

He just couldn't fucking resist any longer. He had to be able to smell his Senpai's scent before he went off like a dog in heat.

Mmm… Wait.

Fuck!

His cock was coming to life right then and there. It wasn't fair at all! He was losing control of his mind and body, all over his damn Senpai! –A guy that looked at him as just his Little Wolfie Kohai, the apathetic guy that whored around so easily, and the guy that Kakashi would willingly do absolutely anything to please.

Not fair. Not fair. Not fair.

What the hell was wrong with him?! He wanted to punch Shou for doing this to him and then maybe Shou would hit him back, knocking some sense into him. He could only hope for such a miracle.

He flopped on the bed with a frustrated sigh and before he knew it, he had himself curled up under the blankets. He inhaled deeply, burying his face into the pillow and enjoying the familiar smell. This caused heat to pool between his legs that had him trembling. There was soon unbearable tightness in his belly and most definitely in his pants, making him turn onto his stomach so that he could put pressure on it. He took in a few shaky breaths, trying to keep himself calm, but Shou's scent was intoxicating and he shifted slightly, hissing at the spike of pleasure it caused. He forced himself to lie still with gritted teeth; his cock was throbbing urgently now and he'd suddenly never found himself so turned on before.

Damn it, Shou. It's your fault for smelling so good!

He desperately wanted friction and his body was starting to move on its own accord, making him rub against the mattress. He let out a breathy sound as shocks of pleasure ran down his spine and he wasn't sure if there was more heat coming from his face or below his beltline as his hips bucked. He'd never felt so dirty in his life and he'd been masturbating to thoughts of Shou ever since he hit puberty. He just couldn't stop himself; it felt too good.

I can never fuss at him for reading those perverted Icha Icha books again with what I'm doing now. In fact, I should just start reading them myself.

He fisted the sheets tightly in his hands as he drove his hips more firmly into the soft surface below him and his breath hitched with each movement. His cock was already leaking pre-cum and it was twitching impatiently for more. He bent his knees just enough to allow his hand down there and it slipped into his boxers.

"Hahh…"

He had to freeze up momentarily as he touched his overly sensitive flesh before he could slowly begin to stroke it. It was so wrong to do this, he knew it was, but his hand kept moving and little sounds were escaping his lips. He massaged his thumb over the tip of his cock, shuddering almost violently.

"Shou," he gasped. "Hn… Ahh…"

For some reason, being in Shou's bed had him feeling more pleasure than usual. Half of him wanted Shou to just come home, catch him in the act, and go feral on him. He wanted his Senpai to walk over and rip his clothes off before taking him from behind like the stray dog he was.

He whimpered. He was already so close to cumming, picturing Shou putting a collar on him and claiming him as his own mongrel puppy, his tamed wolf.

"Oh, god," he whined, hurriedly turning back over. He kicked the covers down as he shoved his shirt up and pulled his rigid cock out.

He didn't know when he'd become such a pervert, maybe Shou was rubbing off on him (not in the literal sense, unfortunately) and he couldn't stop the raunchy thoughts whipping through his head. He'd never before wanted to be submissive for someone and it was definitely confusing. The mere idea of someone trying to control him usually pissed him off, so he didn't know what made Shou different. Maybe it was because he trusted Shou or maybe it was because Shou had never attempted to control him before. Either way, Kakashi liked it and his balls had already grown taut as he jerked himself off rapidly. He was so close to that sweet release that anything could have happened around him and he wouldn't have given a single flying fuck.

"Nngh- hahh… Shou… Fuck, Shou! … Ahh…" He cried. "Shou!"

He came in rivulets over his stomach; his head thrown back against the pillow and his spine arching like a bow. He was gasping raggedly for breath, his chest heaving as he slumped bonelessly. He shivered in the aftermath, eyes hazy and unfocused as he held up a messy hand.

"Shit…" He panted. "I am so fucked…"

…

"Did you wash my sheets while I was gone?" Shou asked him when he finally came home. "They were much cleaner than I remember leaving them…"

"N-No…" Kakashi said as offhandedly as possible.

Shou quirked an eyebrow at him. "What's up with you today, Wolfie?" He asked. "Your cheeks are burning like crazy; I can see it just above your mask." He pointed at his face suspiciously.

Kakashi's heart skipped a beat. "It's nothing," he said stiffly.

"Are you hot under there? Just take it off," Shou said, reaching out.

"No! Get away!" Kakashi all but shrieked. He couldn't handle being touched right now, not after what he'd done and if Shou saw his face then he would surely figure it out.

Shou's eyes widened in alarm and he jerked his hand away. "All right, chill," he said. "Geez, what happened to you while I was gone?"

"Nothing!" Kakashi said bristling.

Shou gave him a withered look. "Fine, stray brat…"

They were quiet for a while and Shou watched Kakashi pick nervously at his mask.

"Shou…"

"Hm?"

"What… What do you do when you like someone?" He asked timidly.

Shou gave him a blank look.

"I mean… If you wanted to, you know…" He trailed off.

Gah! Why did I even ask?!

"Are you trying to get your cherry popped?" Shou asked bluntly.

"N-No! Shut up!" Kakashi cried, mortified.

Shou snickered. "So you're actually interested in someone?"

"Well… Yes…" Kakashi began nervously. "I…"

"Then be straightforward about it," Shou shrugged. "Just tell them."

Kakashi felt his heart skip another beat. "What if they… don't like me back?"

"Who cares?" Shou snorted. "The sooner you find out, the sooner you can move on."

"You make it sound so easy," Kakashi said mystified.

"Because it is easy," Shou said.

"Maybe for you."

"Okay, I guess I haven't been rejected much," Shou admitted. "But I've had plenty of practice."

Kakashi sighed. Of course Shou had plenty of practice. He would never go for someone like him.

"Am I weird, Senpai?" He eventually asked.

"…Yep," Shou said simply.

"I'm serious," Kakashi said testily.

Shou studied him for a moment. "Have others been saying that to you?"

Kakashi shrugged sulkily and kept his eye on the spotted birthmark on Shou's forearm.

I want to be good enough for you.

"Since when do you care what other people think of you?" Shou asked. "I thought we'd gotten past this stuff."

"I don't know…" He murmured. "I'm just different from others, even the other ANBU. I think differently and you're the only one…" He paused hesitantly. "I feel like you're the only one that understands me at all…"

I fucking missed you.

Shou frowned. "Wolfie, the only weird people out there are the ones that pretend to be normal. Why the hell would you want to be like everyone else?"

Kakashi looked a little startled. "I don't…"

"If people don't like the real you then you don't need them," Shou said firmly. "Now seriously, did something happen while I was gone?"

"No…" Kakashi said, suddenly finding his shoes very interesting.

I can't tell you that I just recently figured out how far up shit creek I am without you nor the fact that I have no friends, because I can't make a connection with anyone else. I'm a damn weirdo and you're the only one that doesn't seem to mind.

"…Are you sure?" Shou pressed. "I'll go beat the shit out of some people if you want me to."

Kakashi smiled slightly, but fidgeted.

I also can't tell you that I have feelings for you… Dirty, raunchy, disgusting feelings... You'd surely reject me.

"I'm… glad you're back," he grudgingly admitted instead.

Shou blinked. "You are?" He asked, sounding genuinely surprised. "Huh. Here I was thinking you'd have been pleased to have me away for a while… Did you miss me?"

"Hell no," Kakashi said immediately.

Shou laughed. "But you're glad I'm back. How sappy," he said.

"I'm not," Kakashi denied. "I just wanted sympathy."

Shou grinned and Kakashi squawked as he was suddenly pulled into a hug.

"N-Not this much!" He gasped. "I changed my mind!"

Shou didn't let go though and the hug was awkward, stiff, and… fucking fantastic. Kakashi found himself melting against him quite easily, his heart racing in his throat as he tentatively brought his hands up to clutch at his back. His head only reached Shou's chest, but it allowed him the chance to take a deep breath of his scent. His eye fell closed as he reveled in the feel of his Senpai's thin, but strong, warm body and he was starting to move a little closer when Shou released him.

"Tell anyone I did that and I'll kill you," Shou muttered.

So cute, Kio~

Kakashi automatically felt cold without Shou holding onto him, but he was pleased nevertheless and he gave him an eye smile.

"It seems like you're the sap here," he said teasingly, but his voice came out somewhat strained and he had to clear his throat.

"A fluke," Shou sniffed, turning away.

"You missed me too, didn't you?" He asked, following after him.

"Shaddup," Shou said. "I'm hungry, so if you're not a sandwich then I got nothing more to say to you."

"Mmm… Buy me lunch too, Senpai," Kakashi said eagerly, falling into step beside him.

I'd let you eat me all you wanted…

"No way," Shou said.

"But you're supposed to take care of your Kohai," he whined.

"You come over to my house all the time and eat my food," Shou reminded him with a shove.

"-Well, it's not like you have much there in the first place," Kakashi reasoned as he stumbled a bit and scooted back to his side.

"Che… Feed a mouse a cookie…" Shou grumbled. "Or in this case a stray puppy…"

"Woof," Kakashi said cheerfully and Shou cracked a smile.

"Fine," he sighed wearily. "Spoiled mongrel."

Kakashi snickered. "We should get sushi."

"I'll buy you dog food."

"Aww!"
