Summary:
Whoever sees me face is said to fall in love with me, that's
why I took off my mask… KakaxIru

"Ne, Kakashi-kun?"
I look down at your brown eyes and feel that same fluttery feeling I always feel when I see them. "Hai, Iruka-sensei?" even though you have never been my teacher, I always call you like that for one simple reason… You start to blush.
And like always you blush. I give you a smile and you seem to search for words. "Why do you have that mask?"
I put down my book, yes, I'm putting it down. It's rare for me to do so, especially in normal conversations, but for you I always put down my book.
"It is to make sure not the whole village loves me."
"Nani?" you question. Apparently you don't know.
"It is said that whoever sees my face will fall in love with me, and thus-far that has been true," I explain. "everyone, from passing grandfathers to my own mother, have always fallen for me, that is why my father has given me this mask."
"Your father… was he a good man? To you?" you ask carefully, knowing that he isn't here anymore. But I know that neither are your parents, so I reply to your question.
"My father…" I take a deep breath before smiling again. "My father was a hero."
You smile at me, and suddenly a thought hits me. Whoever sees my face will fall in love with me, eh?
"Iruka-sensei."
Again you blush, but still you reply, "Hai?"
"Do you want to see what's behind my mask?" I ask smirking, even though I know that you won't be able to see it.
"Aren't you scared that I'll fall in love with you too?" you laugh.
"I have faith in your reaction." I reply huskily.
Your blush deepens slightly, not yet gone from before. "Well, okay then, I guess?"
I smile at you. "Great!"
I reach up and hook my fingers around the rim of my mask. Fortunately this is not one of the moments where I wear a second one under it, so this should be done fast. And slowly I pull my mask down.
Your eyes widen and you gasp slightly. I breathe in the clean air through my mouth, savouring the taste. I don't get much of this taste behind that mask, but when I notice your expression I realise that I will still have to wear it. But not now, especially not now.
"Do you think you want to teach me some thing?" I ask huskily "Iruka-sensei."
