A Sexy Jutsu
By Mukumuku
A disclaimer will disclaim. So will I. But some of these guys are mine actually. The rest of them are Kishimoto-sensei's.
==============
Kakashi smiled warmly, his lips attempted to push upward. But gave suddenly due to the lack of determination.
His eyes started to twitch annoyed.
He tried again.
His face erupted into a scowl.
And again.
He looked creepy.
And continued in pursuit for the perfect charming smile but to no avail, none matched his face.
When he was done his practicing he found himself pleased.
His smile was not the best, but it would be enough.
He slid the fabric back over his mouth and worked on the sincerity in his face. Giving up a minute later, he moved combing his hair neatly.
'Kakashi,' he thought to his inner self, 'this is not a face that can get rejected.'
Indeed, his face had reverted to a stressed out, more tired look.
Kakashi took in a deep breath and breathed out.
He felt relaxed.
He exited the washroom and walked down the hall, he moved silently through the halls as to not rise any suspicions. As he turned the corner past Sasuke's office, he attempted to ignore the sounds of new love.
Or more of Naruto shouted and pushing the Hokage away. It was a speculated subject: Naruto and Sasuke's relationship. A pile of books was flung against the wall with a clatter.
Several cups shattered against the ground.
The loud shouts were muffled and silenced.
Sasuke was a miracle worker.
Really.
Kakashi walked faster like he depended on it, and only stopped a when he was a door away from the room he intended to be at by 2:30. He had finally reached his destination.
Kakashi took a deep breath, and breathed out.
He needed to be relaxed or he's scare off Iruka.
He had finally worked up the courage to ask Iruka out and rejection was intolerable. He had been more than interested in Iruka and hoped that Iruka would give him the time of day.
He made a fist, 'I shall not be rejected. This is a face that cannot be rejected.'
He moved several steps and absorbed the motherly aura trickling out of the doors. The room gave an air of friendliness. Peering in, he tried not to make the sliding door creak. Kakashi's eyes gazing upon Iruka-sensei's body hard at work.
He did this often. He would wait till the day was over and then peer through the door at Iruka.
It was not uncommon, but it still made him feel perverted. And a little sad.
Iruka was always so oblivious to him, but the few times he was caught and Iruka welcomed him in with open arms. Sometimes talking with him over the health of his students and tips with dealing with certain miscreants.
Kakashi found the time with Iruka pleasurable and painful. He was with Iruka but they weren't doing anything intimate at all.
They we working without pay.
He sighed at this thought.
But he no longer was content with just watching Iruka any longer.
He wanted to be with Iruka.
He liked Iruka.
He slid the door open at spoke in a calm, but slightly shaky.
"Hello Kakashi," he smiled. Iruka smiled back warmly. Kakashi felt warmer. He congratulated himself on a good start. No student in sight at all. His work seemed light today. All was good.
"May I help you?" Kakashi jolted slightly. He regained his composure. 'Why do I care so much? Just act natural.' He looked at Iruka, he began to smile nervously, "Hatake-sensei? Is everything all right?"
'He called you Hatake-sensei!' Kakashi's face remained an emotionless mask despite his inner self-panicking,
Iruka frowned, "is there something that you need? It's not like you to come in here like this."
'Does he know that I've been watching him?' Kakashi smiled again, Iruka sighed in relief, "Iruka. I was heading down to that new restaurant that just opened up and everyone is raving about."
Iruka blinked.
"Iruka, are you free tonight? I you are, I'd like you to join me in a drink or two. Perhaps." Kakashi eyes had connected to Iruka's and refused to break, "I would like to get to know you." Iruka collected his pens, breaking away from Kakashi.
'He's avoiding the question. Kakashi remain calm.'
Kakashi and Iruka's eyes met for several seconds before Iruka's lips moved to answer.
"I already promised I'd be joining Gai tonight. Sorry." Iruka tidied up his papers and pushed them aside.
'Gai. He's with Gai?' Kakashi felt every part of his body freeze.
"Is that all?" Iruka stood from his desk and made his way to the door where Gai had let himself in and was waiting.
'I was too slow.' Kakashi thought inwardly, he returned to the faceless man of no emotions.
"Oi, Iruka, let's go," Gai nudged Iruka, they both said their good-byes to Kakashi and left. Kakashi watched in like a statue.
"I got beat out Gai." Kakashi mumbled under his apparent shock. "I got beat out by Gai."
Turning around, Kakashi kicked an innocent garbage can into the wall, sending all his fury into it. He was so filled with rage that his white hair would have turned red with anger. "Gai. How dare you try to one up me!"
He paused, "two can play at this game."
===========
Iruka only knew Gai as a friend and when he had asked him to try out the new restaurant in the village he accepted. He mostly wanted to talk get to know his colleges better. On the other hand he had the same relationship with Kakashi. He knew neither of them well, and being an overly caring teacher he wanted to get closer to them and especially.
"Then Kakashi, you had to see him," Gai chuckled, covering his mouth and gripping his bottle of beer for dear life, "he was making a fool out of himself. Then he." Gai leaned in more, the words were jumbled in through the muffled laughs of the Jounen Instructor. Only lingerie and pigs were comprehensible.
The two of them giggled like young schoolgirls.
Iruka wiped away the tears in the corner of his eyes. "Wow, I'd never knew he was like that."
"Yeah, he can be really forward sometimes," Gai chuckled. "He used to be such an ass sometimes, you know that he was the best," Gai sighed looking back to the old days. "You know, a lot of the girls thought he was cute and ogled him a lot. But he never knew."
"Were you jealous?" Iruka teased using his fake feminine wiles.
"Why would I be jealous?" Gai grinned, poking back at Iruka. "He didn't look a single one of them." Iruka looked at Gai in surprise. Gai raised his beer to Iruka before he gulped most of his beer down. "Yeah, he was gay."
Iruka traced his finger along the rim of his glass. "You think I'll have a chance."
"He already likes you," Gai replied straightforward.
Iruka was taken back, "r-r-r-really?"
"Yep." Gai nodded, he smiled. He really felt guilt, but Iruka wanted to know more about Kakashi and was afraid to ask. Both of them were acting shy.
Iruka blushed and played with his napkin nervously.
"Thank you for your support Gai," Iruka blushed redder. 'I feel better now knowing, that deep down, Kakashi is a good man.'
=============
'Damn that Gai. I wanted to make Iruka blush that way.' His fist had been clenched ever since Iruka departed. He grinned to himself like the devil. He motioned to his evil assailant, his partner in crime. "Do me this favour, Lee."
"Kakashi-sensei." Lee looked around nervously, in the empty hall. No one was there and no one was looking. But still, he felt nervous about it. "Is this really all right?"
"Hey, we're wearing gloves. We won't get caught." Kakashi examined the hands to be guilty for the next crime and Gai's undoing.
=============
"FIRE!" One of the chefs raced through the kitchen. "Everyone! Evacuate the building."
One by one, each chef turned off their stoves.
All but one chef.
This chef forgot the safety procedures and threw his towel down on the stovetop before evacuating with the rest.
A fire caught onto the towel and that is how the real fire began.
=============
Gai and Iruka made sure that everyone was evacuated, monitoring the doorways cautiously.
Iruka's eye caught a girl whose ankle had been trampled on and before he knew it he had offered to carry her out. "Gai. Can you check if there's anyone left in the building."
"I'm ahead of you," shouted Gai as he ran deeper into the restaurant. Iruka's attention was called back to the girl whose life was in danger.
"Really, Gai," Iruka said to himself as he carried the girl out of the building. "You're really too good a person."
============
Gai entered the back hallway, he was a good Jounen and reinforcements would be here to help out. But something felt fishy.
Why would anyone start a fire like this?
A violent conflict with a dining politician? An unloved waiter? A careless Chef?
Gai dodged a blow to the back of his neck.
Barely.
He turned in time to see.
Kakashi?
Gai raised his hand and laughed at his friends missed punch. "Enough joking around. Let's get out of here and wait for the people to do their jobs."
Kakashi continue to fan his silent flames. "You knew!" Kakashi spat, he was angrier than in their usual fights.
Gai rubbed the back of his head, "Kakashi, what going on?" Gai only frowned when his friend didn't respond.
Kakashi pointed his finger menacingly at Gai. "Always trying to one up me!" Kakashi launched a kick at his friend's head.
Gai's eyes widened as he opened his clenched hand to block the attack. Even though there was no blow to his head Kakashi managed to draw blood.
Kakashi threw some punches and kicks at Gai that he barely managed to dodge due to the narrow hallway.
He leaned against the wall. 'It's hot, the fire must be in the room next to us. No. Kakashi wouldn't start a fire like that.' Gai moved to the wall opposite of it slowly. "Kakashi! I was just trying to have dinner with Iruka-sensei. Listen we got to get out."
"Liar." He responded coldly. He had the upper hand now that Gai was cornered. There was no escape route now. 'Gai can fight back whenever he wants. I just have to make sure I can find that opening and let him have it."
"You like Iruka-sensei." Gai thought aloud.
Kakashi's heel connected to Gai's cheek despite Gai having caught it.
"So it's true, before I just estimated it." Gai shoved Kakashi away and gave himself more breathing room. "Now I know," Gai pointed to his friend directing his saintly knowledge to the misguided lover. "Be a man, Kakashi and show him your true feelings."
"Those two things contradict each other!"
"That's not the point." Gai remembered something. He blinked. "Isn't there supposed to be a fire. We should evacuate."
Kakashi's mind was on other matters as redirecting his anger. He lifted a box and threw it at the wall opposite to the one that Gai leaned on in fury. The wall caved in and something rolled out of the box into the fire, after bouncing off the shelf. Clanked as it hit something and began to hiss.
Gai sweat dropped and a bad feeling overtook him. "That. Doesn't feel right."
============
"I caught this guy using a illusion," said a waitress pulling Lee by the ear to a frightened and angry mob.
A dishwasher wiped his forehead, "that's good. I couldn't move the dangerous box back into the cupboard in time."
The restaurant owner smiled, "thank goodness there was no real fire."
Iruka sighed in relief as well. At least now he knew that Gai was safe.
Just then the kitchen decided to explode sending fire and debris everywhere.
The owner could only stare as the fire spread faster and consumed the building, powerless. "My restaurant!"
Iruka watched as the flames crawled out of the windows and climbed the brick.
"Gai."
"I'm right here," Gai waved, his arm around a disgruntled Kakashi's shoulder. Kakashi grunted annoyed that he had been the one to walk away from the scene with more injuries. "Kakashi was with me. He's been great help."
"Hello Iruka," Kakashi mumbled, he felt like a guilty child all of a sudden waiting to be eaten up by his mother. He looked up at Iruka and froze at what he saw.
Iruka was crying.
He turned his head and snorted to himself. Probably for Gai.
"Kakashi! Gai! You guys are okay!" Iruka embraced the two of them happily. Glad they were both safe.
'Three is company, Kakashi.' His thoughts haunted him. Kakashi pushed Gai away, closer to Iruka. Iruka held onto Gai, puzzled. "I better leave you two alone." His eyes met Iruka's for the third time today. 'Yeah.. They'll be happy together.' He felt sad, but happy for the two. 'Lucky bastards.'
Gai walked up to his friend and stood by his side. Kakashi wanted to shout. 'No! We're not kids anymore! You won! Fair and square.' He looked in the opposite direction.
"Kakashi." Gai gave the suitor a HARD slap on the back. "Go for it!"
Kakashi, absorbed by his inner thoughts was tripped easily, but luckily Iruka caught him mid fall.
"I'm going to try to bail Lee out. Have fun. Kakashi." Gai whistled, he thought to himself with little guilt or shame. 'If this fails, then tough luck. If this succeeds.' Gai, patted his worried to death pupil on his head. 'Then. I guess I'm a hero.'
"Gai sensei," Lee faced his instructor with a fountain of tears pouring down face.
"You know what you have to do."
"Yes, sensei." Lee hung his head, 'I deserve this to be tempted by evil.'
Gai raised his fist in the air, "a hundred laps around the village!"
"Yes, Gai-sensei!"
============
"........."
"Kakashi." Iruka helped Kakashi stand.
Iruka blushed when Kakashi looked at him.
They both stood there, silently. Stealing glances from each other.
"I called Gai out." Iruka confessed, Kakashi closed his eyes waiting for the killing move.
" To ask him about you."
"..........." Kakashi was needless to say stunned.
Iruka bowed. "I'm sorry. I hope you're not upset." Kakashi shook his head side to side, slowly.
Kakashi then did the unthinkable in either of their minds.
He kissed Iruka.
(On the cheek.)
(Yes, Kakashi reads Icha Icha Paradise, but you know. Only virgins probably read that stuff. J/K)
"I'm happy." And Kakashi smiled for the first time a genuine smile, in fact his smile grew tens times larger. "I've been trying to get you to come out with me."
"Would you like to come--" Iruka thought that the burning restaurant wouldn't be the best place and already a firefighter was awaiting their exit. Iruka thought and the first thing he thought popped out of his mouth, "my place." Iruka took a step away from Kakashi. "We could talk about things."
Kakashi hid his excitement well. He had had taken a deep breath and exhaled, relaxing his body again.
Icha Icha Paradise had taught him that much.
"Iruka.."
"Yes, Kakashi?"
"I would like to know all about you."
========
"And Kakashi and Iruka lived happily every after. The end." Kakashi pulled the sheets around Iruka and himself. She pressed her body against to warm up the Iruka next to her and lull him into sleep. "And the moral is. Love will make you crazy."
"What kind of story is that?" Iruka was still tied to the bed and girl, I mean, woman Kakashi refused to allow her mate to escape. "You didn't say the truth of what happened to Lee or the people at the restaurant!"
Kakashi hugged her lover, she giggled and kissed Iruka on the cheek, "it's a love story."
"Ahhh." He noted. It still made no sense. 'Kakashi is taking this act too far,' but still Iruka melted. He was in heaven.
"Kak--- Er. Mistress."
"Mistress of Iruka." Iruka felt a warm hand on his inner thigh, "I like that better."
Before Iruka could protest Kakashi disappeared under the sheets, a single sentence raced through his mind 'God. I've created a monster."
A chuckle was heard from under the sheets. "Just relax, Iruka, and tell me." Kakashi poked his head out from under the sheets. "Tell me? What do you want?"
Iruka answered back without any hesitation. "I want to make you happy."
The lump in the sheets moved mischievously. "Then I'm going to do this."
"KA-KAKASHI!!!!!!!!!!" Was screamed in the night.
Somewhere a shadowy figure shivered.

"Would you like to come--" Iruka thought that the burning restaurant wouldn't be the best place and already a firefighter was awaiting their exit. Iruka thought and the first thing he thought popped out of his mouth, "my place." Iruka took a step away from Kakashi. "We could talk about things."
Kakashi hid his excitement well. He had had taken a deep breath and exhaled, relaxing his body again.
Icha Icha Paradise had taught him that much.
"Iruka.."
"Yes, Kakashi?"
"I would like to know all about you."
========
"And Kakashi and Iruka lived happily every after. The end." Kakashi pulled the sheets around Iruka and himself. She pressed her body against to warm up the Iruka next to her and lull him into sleep. "And the moral is. Love will make you crazy."
"What kind of story is that?" Iruka was still tied to the bed and girl, I mean, woman Kakashi refused to allow her mate to escape. "You didn't say the truth of what happened to Lee or the people at the restaurant!"
Kakashi hugged her lover, she giggled and kissed Iruka on the cheek, "it's a love story."
"Ahhh." He noted. It still made no sense. 'Kakashi is taking this act too far,' but still Iruka melted. He was in heaven.
"Kak--- Er. Mistress."
"Mistress of Iruka." Iruka felt a warm hand on his inner thigh, "I like that better."
Before Iruka could protest Kakashi disappeared under the sheets, a single sentence raced through his mind 'God. I've created a monster."
A chuckle was heard from under the sheets. "Just relax, Iruka, and tell me." Kakashi poked his head out from under the sheets. "Tell me? What do you want?"
Iruka answered back without any hesitation. "I want to make you happy."
The lump in the sheets moved mischievously. "Then I'm going to do this."
"KA-KAKASHI!!!!!!!!!!" Was screamed in the night.
Somewhere a shadowy figure shivered.
