A/n: Yaoi/Shounen-ai. Eventual KakaIru, but is that REALLY the couple? So for now Iru??? evil laugh! R and R, please.

Chapter One: A strange morning.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Iruka,
You are truly a handsome and beautiful man. I believe I am in love with you. You are sweet, and kind. I've secretly been watching you. Please know that I am not a stalker, I simply am entranced with you. Your good looks, your sweet smile, your wonderful everything. Seeing you makes me breathless.
- Your Secret Admirer"

The note was left, tacked to his door. He had seen it on his way out the door, on his way to the Ninja Academy to conduct class. To say the least, he was shocked. A secret admirer? For him? Someone had been watching? So many questions, and the blushing Iruka was not able to answer them.

During the lesson, as he went over kunai, and their pouches, how they fit, where they went, why they went there, and other related topics, he found himself wandering who the secret admirer is. Who his secret admirer is. He wasn't dating, and he couldn't come up with anyone who would like him. "Seeing you makes me breathless"? Well, he couldn't remember anyone having trouble breathing around him.

When he took the kids to lunch, he sat alone pondering. He knew he shouldn't think so hard on such a thing. Who could the mysterious person be? He sighed. This was really getting annoying. He shouldn't think so hard on such trivial things....but to be honest, Iruka hadn't gone on a date in a long time. He only wondered who it was.

He felt repetitive. He didn't want to think in a circle, so when he took the kids back to class, he made sure to get deep into the subject.

There's only so much excitement you can get from talking about Kunai.

Finally, luckily for him, class let out. He bided his students good day, and off they went, and he was sure that they were much more enthusiastic to get out of class, then to get in it. With a sigh he gathered his belongings and left the building.

'Maybe I could invite Naruto to come get some ramen with me..' Iruka pondered, wondering if his young friend was home. Probably not. He was normally on a mission to the brink of night. Which was just GREAT for Iruka, who had nothing else to do, minus a meeting among all teachers in two hours.

So, what could a bored man do for two hours? Iruka pondered the question as he hurried across the street, nearing his apartment. He could always clean (again), or grade papers. Iruka shuddered at the last thought. He loved his children, but already couldn't wait for them to go off and become Genin.

He stopped when he reached his door, for there was something tacked to the door.
Curiously he took it, looked around, and walked in.
Closing the door behind him, he stumbled into his living room, sitting his things down, and sitting on the couch, glancing at the note. It was another note from his admirer!
Fighting down a slight blush he began to read.

"Iruka,
I see you have gotten my note. Good. I could not help but write again. I blush as I write this, imaging you reading it. Please, do not be disgusted my lovely Iruka. You are beautiful, and handsome, and only a fool would not love you! Yet, they say only fools fall in love, and alas, I must be that, a fool, for I have fallen in love with you, my little angel.
I will see you tonight, my beauty.
-Your foolish Secret Admirer"

Iruka's face had nearly become a tomato. His cheeks crimson. The one thought running through his head was 'What.The.Hell?' He shook it off quickly though. His admirer was rather...cheesy, but still, it was sweet. Iruka reread it. 'I will see you tonight, my beauty'.
'How? Where will they see me? And who the hell is it?'

He suddenly realized exactly what they meant. They would see him at the teachers meeting.
