Disclaimer: I give up. I'm just not that funny, so I'll give it to you straight: I do not own Naruto or the characters.

Author's Note: Sorry for the many loose ends—I promise I will wrap them up and there is a point to them! Also, thank you to all reviewers and those who favourite/followed! I appreciate SO much! De gros bisous pour tous! (That's air-kisses to y'all :)! )

Last time: So, it was Kakashi having naughty dreams! Now he's got Iruka in his arms and we'll have to see how it goes—but Iruka still has a bet to win. How's that going to complicate things?

Just a heads up—while I'm all for reading fantasy sex and it does indeed get me all hot and bothered, but for this fic I'm going for 'real,' or at least sex that's possible/plausible (not like pornstar sex either). That means that our guys do indeed have refractory periods comparable to actual men. Plus an erection (unaided by medication) does not last inordinate amounts of time. I, personally, have not seen one last this long, but I have heard of people who can keep it up for almost half an hour. That's pretty long though, and realistically they last closer to five (or ten minutes at best). So this'll be my hard limit—fifteen to twenty minutes. Also, as romantic as the notion is that someone's skin can taste like a food when you lick them, I have never licked someone and tasted anything other than sweat unless there was actual food smeared on them—so as interesting as it would be to have Iruka taste like chocolate or cinnamon (apparently popular tastes for him—according to some of my favourite authors/fics) and for Kakashi to taste like vanilla (ditto here), they do not. They taste like sweat and cum tastes like, well, semen. But we are going to have fun with some dessert. Finally, anal is not going to be super-painful. I mean, yeah, it's uncomfortable if you're not used to it—but these guys are gay in the fic so they are used to it. It shouldn't be that painful, unless you're doing it wrong—so be careful IRL, ne? (And you can totally walk afterwards—without a limp unless your partner is a monster.) If you actually read all this—then thanks I guess (just had to get it off my chest).

Let me know if this is awful, it's the first real citrus I've written. Thanks!

Finally deciding he'd had enough of the damn shirt, Iruka turned his attention to Kakashi's vest, effectively stripping him of it and then yanking his hitai-ate off to yank the shirt up over his head. Kakashi didn't know how Iruka managed it, but his lips had hardly left him the whole time. (Not that he was complaining, mind, you, not at all.) He was getting hard fast and despite losing half of his clothes he kept getting hotter and hotter, blood rushing to the surface of his skin, making it more sensitive, almost to the point where his skin prickled when touched.

Iruka, seemingly done molesting Kakashi's mouth, turned them around and pushed Kakashi up against the counter, making it easier for his tongue to travel south and take one of Kakashi's nipples into his mouth. As he swirled the tip of his tongue around it, he flicked the other with his thumb and ran the pad of his palm up and down Kakashi's right side.

Kakashi's breath hitched and he barely contained a small bubble of laughter, earning his a cocked eyebrow from Iruka. "Ticklish?" Kakashi gulped and nodded. "Ahh. Okay, then." The pressure from Iruka's hand increased as he switched nipples, making his touch more insistent and less ticklish. Kakashi was grateful as he arched into Iruka's mouth.

By the time Iruka had decided he was done and moved south yet again, Kakashi was breathing hard and was covered in a light sheen of sweat. Iruka undid his pants and tugged them down, letting them pool at Kakashi's ankles. He palmed Kakashi's erection through his boxer briefs, earning a ragged gasp from the older man above him.

Iruka grinned and Kakashi was puzzled (and disappointed) when he moved away from him. Wrong direction! Come back! Then Iruka was back and it dawned on Kakashi just what was going on in the other's mind. He heard a light clink as the plate was placed on the floor, then felt cool air against his length as Iruka worked it free of his final layer of clothing.

Next thing he knew, Kakashi felt a cool, squishy sensation as Iruka's hand slathered his erection in the lemon cream and chocolate syrup from their neglected desert. Then, Kakashi let out an involuntary moan as he felt Iruka's warm tongue slide up his shaft from base to tip. When he reached the tip, Iruka licked the cream from his lips and grinned as he took the head into his mouth. He mmmm'd quietly, giving Kakashi shivers as the vibration traveled up his cock. Then Iruka swirled his tongue all around the ridge at Kakashi's head, and sucked, pulling the lemon cream into his mouth before letting go with a pop to swallow.

Kakashi peered down at Iruka, watching as he settled himself on his knees and took Kakashi's hips firmly into his hands before turning back to his cock with a serious expression on his face. Kakashi smiled to himself as Iruka went back to his task, turning his smile into a gasp and little groan as he was taken halfway into his mouth. Iruka pulled back and then repeated the motion several times, earning little moans from Kakashi as he let his teeth grate lightly along the bottom of his shaft. He held tightly to the edge of the counter as Iruka let go of his hips with one hand to take his head into his hand as he licked up and down his cock where there was still cream and chocolate syrup.

Iruka leaned farther in towards Kakashi, stroking harder with his hand as he took Kakashi's balls into his mouth, making popping sounds as he sucked one all the way into his mouth and let it go, then did the same to the other side. Kakashi was straining against Iruka's hand on his hip now, wanting so bad to just thrust into his hand, but Iruka was having none of it. His other hand left Kakashi's cock, pushing him back hard against the counter as he again took him into his mouth, this time deep throating him almost to the hilt. Kakashi keened and writhed against Iruka's hands again, but stilled as his breath caught in his throat when Iruka swallowed around him, creating the most delicious pressure. He slowly pulled back, then swirled his tongue around the head before deep throating him again, going almost all the way again, swallowing against his gag reflex and humming to send vibrations up Kakashi's cock. Kakashi moaned helplessly, breathing hard and still straining against Iruka's hands. Sensing that Kakashi was almost at the end of his rope, Iruka pulled back and started bobbing his head up and down his shaft faster, but more shallowly, taking the base of his cock into his hand and pumping in time to his sucking. Every now and then he'd hum, sending vibrations up and down Kakashi's shaft. After only a few more minutes, Kakashi was coming undone, moaning wantonly and jerking against Iruka's hands, not caring that the counter was most likely bruising his hips each time he did. When Iruka heard Kakashi's breath hitch, he deep throated him one last time as he came. Iruka pulled back again, licking the last bit of cum from Kakashi's tip. As he let go of Kakashi's hips, the man slumped bonelessly to the floor.

Iruka swiped one of his fingers across his lip, sucking some stray lemon cream from it as he surveyed his work. He smiled to himself as he stood. His pants were more than a little tight, but he started to clear the table anyways, figuring he'd get off in round two when Kakashi's stupor wore off. As he returned from rinsing the dishes at the sink a few minutes later, he heard a muttered, "No fair." from somewhere in the vicinity of the floor.

"Huh?" He turned towards Kakashi.

"No fair," Kakashi repeated, looking up petulantly from his prone position on the floor.

"What's no fair?"

"You're dressed." Kakashi pouted. "That's not fair. I'm not."

Iruka chuckled. "We could fix that."

"Mmhmmm. Shower." Kakashi grabbed the edge of the counter to pull himself up, then pushed his pants off of his ankles with his feet. He reached for Iruka's hand and pulled him towards the back of the apartment.

Iruka began dropping his clothes, laughing as Kakashi continued to mumble about the unfairness of their state of dress.

"Better?" He asked, now only in his jeans as they stopped in the bathroom.

"No." Kakashi pouted. "You've still got pants. And underwear." He pointed accusingly at the offending articles of clothing.

Iruka grinned. "Not exactly," he said, reaching into the shower to turn it on, then pushing Kakashi towards it.

"Not exactly?" Kakashi questioned, stepping in obediently. He looked Iruka up and down. "I see them!"

Iruka grinned, undoing his jeans and letting Kakashi get a look at the feathery trail of hair from his navel down to his crotch. Kakashi's eyes widened a little.

"You go commando?" Incredulous, he reached towards Iruka.

Iruka shrugged. "Today I do." He moved forward and into Kakashi's grasp. As Kakashi pushed his pants down, he toed them off and added, "My new jeans are tight. Kind of too tight for my underwear."

Kakashi laughed, "I'm glad." He pulled Iruka under the water, "Makes my job a lot easier."

Iruka hissed as the water hit his hot skin and he bucked forward as Kakashi grabbed his still hard cock. "Need a hand, sensei?" Kakashi almost growled in his ear as he tugged him forward into his own body, relishing the heat emanating from Iruka's body.

Iruka moaned as Kakashi fisted his erection a couple of times, hard. "I'm impressed, sensei," Kakashi continued conversationally, never stopping his pumping motions. "You're still hard as a rock. I thought you might've gone down by now, or relieved yourself in the kitchen."

Iruka was a little affronted and jerked back, away from Kakashi. Kakashi just moved forward with him, running his nose up and down Iruka's jaw. "Don't take offense, sensei," he whispered huskily in his ear, "it's just that I don't have the self-control to postpone my . . . . gratification." He punctuated the last word with a lick up Iruka's neck, stopping to suck on a sensitive spot just below and behind the man's ear.

Mollified, Iruka relaxed back into Kakashi's ministrations. Kakashi smiled against his skin as Iruka ground out between ragged breaths, "Only . . . . been . . . . a few . . . . huh . . . . minutes," he hissed as Kakashi squeezed the head of his cock, then moaned, loudly as the pressure from Kakashi's hand increased.

Kakashi continued fisting Iruka as he pushed his body forwards, effectively trapping Iruka as he backed him up into the wall. Iruka keened and thrust his body forwards and into Kakashi's pumping hand. He's loud, Kakashi mused, just like I always imagined. Kakashi smiled to himself. I could get used to this. He dropped into a crouch, running his hands down Iruka's sides as he went. He contemplated Iruka's cock for a minute, smiling as Iruka blinked down at him, puzzled. Then he took him into his mouth, huffing his cheeks out with his breath rhythmically as he did it. He ran a hand lightly up and down the base of Iruka's shaft, dragging his nails across the tight, heated skin. Iruka's befuddled expression was quickly replaced by a dazed, lustful look.

As Iruka struggled to keep his breathing under control, he grasped desperately at the wall, trying to find purchase for his fingers on the slippery tiles. Kakashi smirked inwardly as Iruka finally gave up and clasped his hands roughly in Kakashi's silver hair. He let Iruka's cock go completely and kissed his way up his stomach, stopping at his navel to dip his tongue in and swirl it around. He replaced his mouth with his hand on the hard shaft, pumping harder and faster than before, and continued up Iruka's chest and back to his new favourite spot on the man's neck.

Kakashi pulled back a little, continuing to pump Iruka's erection and waited, watching, for him to come in his hand. When he did, Kakashi surged forward and captured his mouth in a heated kiss, swallowing Iruka's scream as he arched back into the shower wall. Kakashi caught him under the arms as he slumped forward, completely spent.

Kakashi leaned back against the shower wall and switched the spray to the tap to run a bath as he eased them both down into the tub and pushed the curtain open. He ran the water hot and settled them down in the water. He was leaning against the back of the tub and he had pulled Iruka in front of him, one of his own legs on either side of Iruka. Iruka was still lost in a sated haze and as Kakashi rested Iruka's head on his shoulder and brushed his hair out of his face he took a moment to just gaze at the man. I can't mess this up. I can't. I don't have a lot of good things left in this life, he mused, and if I get this close to keeping him only to lose him, I don't know what I'll do.

As Iruka slipped further down into the water, Kakashi rested his chin on his head, burying his nose into Iruka's crown and taking a deep breath. So quiet that the sleepy Iruka didn't hear him at all, Kakashi murmured into his brown locks, "I love you."

TBC . . . .

Another Note: 'Kay, so I thought this might be interesting for some people, but there are certain ways I imagine Kakashi and Iruka IRL. So, for Iruka, lately, I've been picturing Rafi Gavron, (omigosh, he'd be a PERFECT Iruka, all he needs is a scar!), but with a bigger smile than in most of his pics. For Kakashi, I often picture Tom Hiddleston with white hair and the eye scar/red eye. You can Google both actors or head straight to IMDB.

P.S. Sorry for all the notes, but I just have one last rant today! To Anonymous: Sorry, but in this story Iruka is indeed bi. If it makes you feel any better, both Izumo and Kotetsu are gay, as is Genma (he only agrees to try and seduce the women because A. he wants to show Iruka up; and B. he doesn't care if they get hurt because he's not really interested). Also, I haven't had to explore this yet, since I haven't given Kakashi much of an in-fic backstory, but it doesn't matter which (or how many ways) he swings. By the way, I would have preferred to answer you in a PM, so please login next time you leave a comment. Thanks!
