"Sure, Iruka" Kakashi whispered softly. Iruka grabbed his hand gently leading him out of the building. Iruka would have talked to Kakashi back at his original apartment, but he didn't have one anymore so he decided on just talking to the man in a secluded area in a park.

Kakashi. Was. Dying. He was about to blow up in anxiety. He never felt his heart quicken so much for such a long period of time. Kakashi tried to breathe evenly but it was a difficult task in of itself. When they got to the park they walked for a bit, hand in hand tightly, before Iruka had Kakashi sitting on a bench.

Iruka closed his eyes with a mixture of frustration, worry, and anxiety. Kakashi was looking up at him knowing he had the same emotions portrayed on his face as well, under his mask.

"I know that it has been a difficult several weeks for you and I'm sorry for causing you such trouble" Iruka said as sincerely as possible. Kakashi just wanted to hug him.

"And I know that you must be anxious to hear what I have to say about all of this, but please believe me, it was for a good reason" Iruka choked out the last part, about to cry. Kakashi stood suddenly wanting to comfort the man but Iruka motioned for him to stop and sit back down.

"I love you so much" Iruka said through a watery smile but it only caused Kakashi's heart to jolt.

"Ruka-koi" Kakashi whispered standing up again needing to hug Iruka. To tell him it was okay. But Kakashi fitfully obeyed when Iruka motioned for him to sit back down again.

"Please, I-I don't know if I'll be able to do this again" Iruka said hoarsely, tears leaving him.

"I'd never want to burden you so you can leave me if you want after I tell you" Iruka said about to sob at what he just said. Kakashi shook his head roughly 'no' being close to tears himself. He'd never, ever, want to leave Iruka.

Kakashi kept his mouth shut tightly needing to hear what was wrong with his Iruka.

"I…I…I'm…" Iruka wasn't doing well at all seeing as how he couldn't control his tears at this point. Kakashi was slowly becoming insane halfway off the bench not sure at all what to do and was past the point of being worried when seeing Iruka crying like this.

"Pregnant" Iruka choked up but was loud enough for Kakashi to hear.

Kakashi full on sat on the bench at this point.

His male lover was…what? What?

Kakashi swore he misheard but Iruka did not try correcting himself. In fact Kakashi was just frozen at this point as he just looked at Iruka blankly, mouth slightly agape. Iruka waited for a few minutes for Kakashi to get it through his head that he was serious, hiccupping all the while.

When Kakashi said nothing, Iruka's fears were starting to become realized.

"You don't have the responsibility if you don't want it. I'm somewhat unsure if I even want this child still. I don't think I can kill a child, but I don't know if I could handle this pregnancy alone. I guess I have Sakura-san but please know Kakashi, I will always love you" Iruka was still able to sound bold with his ending sentence, but his heart was already cracking.

He quickly left the park, leaving Kakashi to himself. Iruka was able to quickly walk back to his apartment but the instant his door closed, he began sobbing uncontrollably.

I did ask for this so I need to deal with the consequences myself Iruka thought morbidly.

Was there really no hope for it?


The only thing Iruka had consumed for the last three days was the tea Sakura had given him. Iruka's lips would quiver every now and then along with a sniffle or two. He tried with all his power not to cry; tried.

In a few days he'd be three months along and he had no one that'd be happy for him, except Sakura of course; but he'd rather have Kakashi truth be told.

No matter what Iruka thought of, he couldn't be bitter at Kakashi. He logically concluded that he was the one that thought of and brought up families, he was the one who immediately burst out a 'yes' when Sakura asked if he wanted a child, and he knew that the blame could solely rest on him.

Iruka was already feeling woozy and had cramps in his stomach but blamed it on his morning sickness. He was able to snack on a carrot but it was quickly tossed up later so he didn't see the point in eating right now, especially when depressed.

A few tears would escape him but he brushed them away shamefully. He sat in front of their plants, Kakashi's the golden brown orchids with a single silver one at the bottom and his own with the silver orchids and the single golden brown one at the bottom. He was shakily breathing all the time, trying to remain the strong and dutiful teacher for his students but they knew something was deeply wrong with their sensei. They even told him it was okay if he went on vacation or something but teaching was the only thing keeping Iruka sane right now.

Before Iruka knew it, two more days had passed and he'd wake up with a shiver, sneezing. Iruka had been eating little snacks here and there during the five days he had been alone but they weren't much and he'd always throw it up.

In two more days, you'll be three months old Iruka rubbed his still somewhat flat stomach, standing up to drink some of Sakura's tea before wobbling slightly seeing black spots in front of his eyes.

That was weird…but you'd let me know if something was wrong right Akachan*? Iruka looked worriedly at his abdomen which was still relatively flat and didn't look much different. Iruka crossed his arms over his stomach protectively not sure how much more heart ache he could take.


"I'm serious! I just found him on the park bench!"

Kakashi left the park a few times unsure of what to do before returning to the park once more. It was all too real for him and his heart and his head didn't know what to do. Was he angry? Was he happy?

Kakashi was thinking and he had been thinking long and hard for at least five days straight.

"Is he injured or something?"

"Does it have to do with Iruka-san?"

"Do you think he told Kakashi-senpai?"

"Did they have a divorce?"

"Is Iruka-san sicker than we thought?"

"Is there nothing we can do?"

All of his friends were talking amongst themselves trying with all their might to figure out how to comfort their friend. Naruto, Sasuke and Shikamaru were actually discussing what Sakura did that was affecting both of their sensei's this way. With the information they gathered from Sakura, she didn't leave much room for guessing (at least guessing that made any sense).

Kakashi suddenly had a thought hit him (thanks to his inner actually) that woke him up from this stupor he was having.

Come on! I should have stopped giving you hints about what you should do half an hour ago!Kakashi's inner yelled at him.

I love Iruka more than my own life. I've never thought about families because I've never had one before; I didn't think it could happen. When I fell in love with Iruka and we got married, I knew it was impossible at that point to have children so I gave up on the idea and I was okay with that. But then this entire situation ends up in my lap and I practically threw it away. What the hell is wrong with me then? Iruka is everything to me, he is having my child which I want too, and my heart will just grow to fit two. Kakashi smiled under his mask before realizing that he had better get to Iruka pretty damn quick considering he hadn't seen his lover in almost a week.

Sakura, on the other hand, should have taken the day off. Why? Because as of right when she walked through the door, Kakashi was livid. He wasn't entirely sure why he was livid, but he would have been a hell of a lot happier if Iruka and him had planned on having this baby and then having Sakura do whatever she did.

"You" The one word out of Kakashi mouth was dark and sent shivers down everyone's spines. Sakura froze in her tracks immediately, eyes growing wide.

"You" This time the word was laced with poisonous intent making Sakura take a step back when he pointed at her this time.

"N-Now Kakashi-sensei I'm sure you are very angry at me right now –although I'm not sure why entirely- but you should really just, you know, think about if what I did was really all that bad" Sakura gave an awkward chuckle while everyone in the room was starting to get really curious guessing Kakashi knew what was wrong with Iruka.

"YOU MADE IT POSSIBLE FOR MY IRUKA TO GET PREGNANT YOU PSYCHOPATH!" Kakashi burst out loudly making the room shake. At this point, everyone's mouths were dropped down in shock. The thing going through everyone's minds at the same was: wait…what? Could you repeat that? Is he serious? What…start over.

Sakura had two choices as of right then. Either talk to an infuriated and unreasonable Kakashi probably bent on murdering her in cold blood OR hide someplace nice and cozy until this all blew over. The second choice sounded superb so Sakura disappeared in a puff of smoke. Kakashi growled before sprinting out of the room, bent on finding the girl.

Sakura quickly 'poof-ed' to Iruka's apartment considering if Iruka told him, and Kakashi wasn't with Iruka, then Iruka was probably having the worst week of his life. Sakura broke into his apartment not wanting to stay on an open street at the moment, wandering around their apartment.

"Iruka-sensei?" Sakura said gently before stopping in her tracks, her hand covering her mouth at the scene in front of her. Iruka's head was lying on top of his arms which were placed on top of the kitchen table, Iruka sobbing into them.

"Iruka!?" Sakura said loudly causing Iruka's head to slowly come up, tear stains evidently running down his cheeks. Sakura gasped audibly. Iruka looked awful! He looked too skinny to be healthy and his skin was a horribly pale color. The only color he had was the red in his cheeks and eyes from crying so much. Other than that he looked sickly and it made Sakura tear up as she covered both of her hands over her mouth shaking her head disbelievingly.

"I-I told K-Kakashi a-about Akachan a-and it's been five d-days a-and he hates me!" Iruka wailed, "I-I told him he d-didn't have the responsibility if h-he d-didn't w-want it and he o-obviously took i-it!"

"N-No, Iruka-sensei. Kakashi was just shocked. He didn't expect anything like this to happen to him so he's probably been thinking really hard about all of this and I think he'll come back to you post haste!" Sakura tried sounding encouraging but Iruka shook his head, tears flying off from the force.

"I-I've b-burdened him and n-now he'll never l-love me again or our b-baby!" Iruka wept before making a high pitched gasp. He clutched onto his side, right below his rib cage, before ending up on his knees. Sakura gasped putting one of Iruka's arms around her shoulders, fear coursing through her. Sakura placed her glowing green hand onto the spot Iruka was clutching tightly before her eyes grew wide.

"You are mal-nutritious, your baby needs so many more nutrients, and the stress of the situation has caused you to become slightly sick with almost something like a cold" Sakura said seriously. There wouldn't be much she could do for the man if she took him to the hospital so she thought it would have been better to help the man to bed and make him some food, forcing him to eat it if need be. If he fell asleep then she'd run to get a ton of vitamins from the hospital for him. But before she could even lift Iruka off of his knees, his apartment door was slammed open aggressively.

After a few minutes of searching for the girl, Kakashi realized she'd probably be at their apartment. All of his friends of course were searching for either Kakashi or Sakura at this point once they unfroze from the information.

When Kakashi burst in and he saw Iruka in pain and Sakura holding him trying to get him off the floor, he became murderous.

Before Sakura had time to react Kakashi was holding a vice like grip around her throat, forcing her to let go of Iruka who held out his hand to stop himself from fully collapsing onto the floor.

"What did you do to him!?" Kakashi bit out.

"He's *cough* missed you" Sakura choked out.

"Answer the god damn question!"

"N-Nothing" Sakura wheezed. She was a good half a foot off the floor at this point.

"You made it possible for him to get pregnant!"

"Y-Yes" Black spots appeared before her vision.

"Why!?"

"B-Because he w-wanted a fam-family with y-you!" More than half of her vision was going at his point. Kakashi growled before dropping Sakura to the floor in a heap who was choking and hacking. Kakashi quickly turned to Iruka seeing him in pain, weak, tear stained, pale, and very skinny.

"Oh Ruka" Kakashi whispered but Iruka hadn't heard him at all which seriously worried the man.

Kakashi took one of Iruka's arms so it was over his shoulder before practically carrying Iruka to the bedroom. He undid the man's ponytail and tucked him under the covers. Iruka let out a few strained cries only having Kakashi hush him telling him it was alright, that he loved him, that he was so sorry. Iruka was too lost in the pain before finally passing out on the bed. Kakashi was rocking the man against himself having a few tears leave him never meaning to cause Iruka so much pain mentally.

Kakashi quickly walked out needing guidance on what he should do for his…pregnant…lover. But when he went into the kitchen Sakura was gone. He quickly summoned Pakkun along with a Kakashi clone to watch Iruka while he tried to find the girl quickly.

Sakura was already down the stairs, about to go up the street vaguely realizing her friends were headed to her and Kakashi was almost behind her.

Sakura's throat was completely red and the center of her throat, where most of the pressure was, was bruising quickly. Sakura was holding her throat gently with her hand trying to regain some air back into her lungs.

"Sakura-chan (san)" All of them yelled to her.

"What happened!?" Shikamaru asked seriously. Sakura shook her head roughly needing to think and sleep.

"Sakura-chan, I'm sorry I lost control like that!" Kakashi did sound sincere to Sakura, but she was going to play with him a little since he rightfully deserved it.

"You choked her!?"

"She was over Iruka who was in serious pain!"

"You should have thought that through!"

"I know! And I really am truly sorry that I attacked her!"

"Sorry isn't going to help her throat!"

"Then she can ask whatever favors she wants from me!" Kakashi said seriously startling the group. They all knew Kakashi hated owing someone anything, but to give a person unlimited reign like that was unbelievable; right then they knew Kakashi was more than sorry, he was practically begging for her to forgive him.

Sakura was even shocked for a moment before still deciding to play with the man a little even though having him owing her any amount of favors was beyond gratifying.

"Fuck that!" Sakura tried clearing her throat but remained sounding hoarse, "you and Iruka can try figuring this shit out *cough* but I'm sick of always having to deal with *cough, hack* everyone! Leave me the hell *wheeze* alone!" Sakura tried sounding pissed and apparently it worked really well seeing all of their faces shocked and Kakashi's one visible eye as round as a saucer. Sakura inwardly smirked before disappearing in a poof.

"I-I can't do this on my own" Kakashi said worriedly to the group in front of them who were still too shocked at Sakura's reply. They thought she was going to laugh and say you better keep that promise not…that.

"We'll help!" Naruto yelled out having the group agree with him.

"Thank you all so much, but, I need someone who knows what they're doing for this kind of…thing" Kakashi said seriously making them all worry as well.

"We'll ask Baa-chan! Right now stay with Iruka and do what Sakura told you to do before you knew that Iruka-sensei was…um…pregnant…okay!?" Naruto said enthusiastically. Kakashi nodded before disappearing back to his apartment worried sick about Iruka.

He practically ran back to the apartment and to their bedroom seeing Iruka shivering under the extra blanket his clone put on him. The clone disappeared once the real Kakashi came back but Pakkun sniffed up and down Iruka's body.

"Pakkun?" Kakashi asked curiously, "do you smell anything?"

"Come smell for yourself" Pakkun said trying to nudge Iruka's blanket away from his stomach. Kakashi carefully helped the dog lift the blanket slightly off the man so just his lower torso was exposed. Kakashi pushed a little chakra into his nose to increase his sense of smell tenfold. He squatted down placing his exposed nose on Iruka's shirtless stomach before falling on his ass in surprise. Pakkun kept sniffing the stomach hardly believing this was possible himself.

"He really…" Kakashi stated softly nuzzling his nose against Iruka's abdomen with care sensing a small spark of a chakra signature that wasn't Iruka's. Kakashi's heart swelled with happiness before slowly frowning when he looked up at Iruka's heartbroken and tear stained face.

"I'm so sorry love" Kakashi choked out sadly touching Iruka's hand. Iruka shivered violently, startling Kakashi, before he lumped the blankets back onto the man with care.

"He…doesn't look too good boss" Pakkun said sadly, looking up at Kakashi.

"I know" Kakashi whispered out with difficulty. He looked so fragile on the bed as if he would break into a million pieces.

"Before Sakura told me what was going on with Iruka, she said that he needed to eat a lot so I guess I'll start there" Kakashi said quietly, Pakkun giving a single head nod.

"If you need anything just summon" Pakkun said quietly before disappearing into a puff of smoke. Kakashi sighed sadly moving some loose strands of hair out of Iruka's face. Kakashi went off to the kitchen to make some soup deciding to have bread on the side so Iruka's stomach would at least fill up.

There was gentle tapping on the apartment door and Kakashi hesitantly went to it, peeking out, only to see Naruto and Tsunade standing there looking worried. Kakashi opened the door wider letting them in. They quietly discussed the situation in the living room.

"So what happened exactly?" Tsunade whispered. The news of Iruka being pregnant spread faster than wildfire. In fact it could have been a record at how fast the news spread.

"Well I came into the apartment and saw Sakura partially holding Iruka up. I kind of got angry and may have attacked her *cough* (Tsunade looked angry at this part but allowed the man to continue) but it was because Iruka looked like he was in a lot of pain. I guess I instantly worried and didn't want anyone touching him" Kakashi stated.

Tsunade heaved a sigh sort of understanding the man's reasoning as to why he attacked her pupil; not that he should have in the first place.

"Anyway I took Iruka back to the bedroom, leaving a clone and Pakkun to watch over him, considering I realized that I shouldn't have hurt Sakura. I ran after her since she left the apartment and I did apologize to her and said that she could ask whatever favors she wanted from me" Kakashi continued.

Tsunade looked shocked that Kakashi offered such a thing to Sakura but it did prove that he really was sorry.

"She kind of angrily left and now I don't know what to do about this whole thing" Kakashi said sadly. Naruto nodded at Tsunade silently saying that Kakashi's story was true who sighed again.

"I have heard of male pregnancies before, but none have been fully written on record" Tsunade said quietly.

"So I have never done this before but I will try my best to see what I can do" Tsunade said determinedly, patting Kakashi on the shoulder as she headed to the bedroom. Naruto and Kakashi looked at each other briefly before following behind her. Tsunade was fixated on his abdomen for the longest time, pure concentration on her face.

She stood up slowly, once finishing her examination of the man.

"How fascinating" Tsunade mumbled out. Naruto and Kakashi looked anxiously at the woman as she waved her hand in a 'you wouldn't understand it medically' motion.

"Well Iruka-san is sick. He has a slight cold and he is mal-nutritious. I also don't believe that he should be this skinny and I have a guess as to how old the fetus is but I may be wrong. I would suggest taking care of his cold and really concentrate on giving him nutritious foods" Tsunade said quietly making both men nod in understanding.

"I need to write some of this down and I may come back in a few days once I fully figure out a few things" Tsunade said briskly walking out of the room and apartment.

"So… I'm a big brother than right!?" Naruto asked in a hushed excitement. Kakashi smiled fondly at Naruto, giving a slight nod (making Naruto bounce up and down with energy) before Kakashi shuffled his hair telling him to leave before he disturbs the neighbors with the noise he was bound to make. Naruto pouted slightly at the man but did as he asked.

Kakashi sighed, leaving to get the soup from the kitchen, with a slice of bread on the side. He came back into the room setting the food on the nightstand. Kakashi felt worse than awful as he looked down at Iruka's exhausted and pale face.

Iruka did not feel well and was very groggy, but he let his eyes flutter open before widening in shock.

Kakashi? What is he doing here? Iruka thought confused.

"Hi" Kakashi whispered, sitting on the edge of his bed.

"What...are you…doing…here?" Iruka said with a slur from exhaustion.

"Don't talk. I need you to save your energy. Are you hungry?" Kakashi asked curiously but Iruka shook his head 'no.' Kakashi's face soured not liking that.

"Sakura-san and Tsunade-sama say you should eat. I made you soup and here is some bread" Kakashi said gently lifting the tray towards the man. Iruka blinked several times wondering if he was in an alternate universe somewhere.

Kakashi grabbed the spoon, dunking it into the soup, before offering it to Iruka. It did smell nice and it couldn't hurt to eat, but what was the point in eating when his husband and future father of their child hated him.

Iruka had a few tears leave him unsure of what to do. Kakashi immediately put the spoon back into the soup, holding the tray with one hand, before wiping away Iruka's tears with the other.

"I love you" Kakashi whispered quietly, "I love you both."

Iruka looked extremely taken aback, mouth slightly parted in shock. Kakashi took this opportunity to grab the spoon in the soup and gently fit it into Iruka's slightly parted mouth. Iruka very, very slowly, swallowed the soup from the spoon. Kakashi fed him another spoon, right after the other. Iruka's stomach was starting to feel better and Kakashi would rip off small pieces of bread to put in the spoon filled with soup so Iruka could eat that too. Kakashi made sure Iruka finished the entire bowl before setting it to the side. Iruka looked worriedly at Kakashi before falling asleep slowly.

"I know it'll take a while for you to believe that I do want this child, but I swear to you, I won't give up on trying to convince you. I want this family. I want you. I want this child. I love you" Kakashi whispered to the man before leaving to do the dishes. He wasn't sure if he should have slept in the same bed as Iruka before debating with himself that he should probably sleep on the couch.

The night passed slowly for the two. Kakashi woke up startled though when he heard Iruka throwing up. Kakashi practically ran to the bedroom seeing Iruka wobbly trying to make it back to the bed. Kakashi hurriedly went to him, holding him by the waist, before helping Iruka lie down again.

He's still here Iruka thought sleepily before passing out again once his head hit the pillow. Kakashi breathed deeply wishing he could do something to make Iruka stop throwing up. Kakashi lightly kissed Iruka on the forehead before heading back to the couch. The past three days were Kakashi taking care of Iruka to get his cold to go away which seemed to be working. He also looked a bit healthier but he was still too skinny.

Kakashi was happy that Iruka was eating though and his cold was going away. Iruka had a runny nose most of the time but it was slowly ceasing back to sniffles. Kakashi really needed to talk to Iruka though, more than anything he needed to tell Iruka how he felt.

Iruka woke up later in the midafternoon, about an hour after Kakashi left to go get groceries. Iruka slowly sat up feeling a lot better than he had been for over a week. Iruka stood up, happy there weren't any black spots in his vision, before walking to the bathroom. He was still throwing up but it wasn't so bad now that it wasn't just dry heaving. Iruka took a nice, long, hot shower until the water turned cold and decided to get out. When Iruka went to dry off he stopped noticing a very small bump distinguishing his abdomen. Iruka looked from side to side having his hands roam all around the bump.

"Akachan" Iruka breathed out, his heart fluttering in happiness. Iruka sighed happily before getting dressed. He walked to the kitchen seeing a pot on the stove. He lifted it smelling delicious soup, pouring himself a bowl. He slowly began eating, thinking.

Kakashi has been here the entire time. He took care of me while I was sick… that must mean he cares, right? Iruka was slightly confused considering Kakashi didn't come to see him after telling him he was pregnant. Iruka, of course, immediately thought that Kakashi hated him and didn't want this child. Iruka got up slowly, laying his bowl in the sink, before pouring himself a cup of Sakura's tea.

Iruka drank it slowly, his mind completely blank. Iruka gasped suddenly remembering that Kakashi attacked Sakura. He hoped that Sakura was alright but understood why he attacked her, even though he shouldn't have. Iruka heard Kakashi walking in deciding to just stare down at the table. He didn't know what to do or say considering he was so confused about everything.

He heard Kakashi stop in the kitchen door way before walking towards the counter to place the grocery bags down. Kakashi turned slowly to Iruka before sitting down at the table right next to him.

"Iruka?" Kakashi whispered, almost afraid.

"I… I want to apologize for my behavior. When you told me you were pregnant I was, well…shocked would be an understatement I guess" Kakashi laughed awkwardly. Iruka sighed quietly looking into his tea cup. Kakashi looked sadly at him for a moment before continuing.

"I was actually thinking for those five days. I would go back and forth from the park trying to just think about this whole thing. About having a family. About you. About our child" Kakashi said quietly. The way Kakashi said 'our' made Iruka's heart beat sporadically.

"I know I left you alone for almost a week and for that I'm truly sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you so much and I didn't mean for you to think that I didn't want to be with you anymore" Kakashi said seriously. Iruka gave a sniffle, rubbing his eye with his palm. Kakashi grabbed his hand kissing it softly making Iruka blush.

"I love you. I want you. I want this baby. I want you to believe me. I need you to believe me. I will do everything I can to make you believe me" Kakashi whispered out desperately to the man who was still shocked at this point.

He-He really does? Iruka thought unbelievably. Iruka didn't know if this was a dream, if it was a genjutsu, or some prank. He didn't care. He was going to believe Kakashi no matter what dimension he probably was in because he needed it to be real.

Iruka suddenly hugged Kakashi tightly a quiet sob escaping him.

"Y-You didn't come back" Iruka cried out.

"I know, I know. But I've been trying to make up for those five days by getting you out of your cold" Kakashi said gently, tightly hugging the man back, but not too tightly of course.

"Y-You don't think I'm a freak?"

"I'll kill anyone who does"

"Y-You want this baby?"

"I do. More than anything"

"You want me?"

"I'd give anything and everything just for you to keep me"

Iruka just squeezed his eyes shut tightly trying to let all of his words settle in his mind as he continued hugging Kakashi. Kakashi rubbed his back, whispering sweet nothings into his ear. Iruka slowly pulled away from Kakashi looking down into his lap. Kakashi cocked his head in question before remembering that he had a question to ask Iruka.

"Iruka?" Kakashi whispered. Iruka didn't say anything but Kakashi was sure the man was listening intently.

"At the park you said… you said that you didn't…." Kakashi was trying very hard to get out what he needed to ask the man. Iruka looked up at him curiously wondering what Kakashi was trying to tell him.

"You said you weren't sure if you wanted to keep the baby" Kakashi whispered out hurt. Iruka stiffened remembering his words. Iruka looked down at his lap again feeling awful for saying such a thing.

Don't worry Akachan, Ruka-daddy won't get rid of you Iruka thought blushing at the nickname he just gave himself. He did feel very happy though at the concrete decision he just made.

"Iruka… I know that this is really up to you considering you have to carry it and all…but if my opinion helps you decide I'd really like to have this baby with you. I really do want our own little family" Kakashi said gently. Iruka looked deeply into Kakashi's eyes searching for (and finding) how honest Kakashi's words were. Iruka held Kakashi tightly again snuggling into the man's neck. Kakashi sighed wondering if he'd get an answer or not.

"Okay" Iruka whispered out. Kakashi gently pushed Iruka away from his body to look directly at him. Iruka started blushing, gulping before repeating what he said.

"I-I'll keep it. I just didn't want to be alone through this whole thing I guess. I-I'm scared" Iruka said seriously, worriedly looking at Kakashi.

"Don't be. I'll be right beside you all the way" Kakashi said gently before kissing Iruka passionately having the man kiss him back with the same force. After their make out session in the kitchen, Kakashi carried Iruka back to the bedroom telling the man he needed some sleep (mostly because Iruka started sneezing).

Kakashi was about to leave the bedroom again to sleep on the couch considering he was still unsure if Iruka wanted Kakashi near him at the moment.

"Kakashi" Iruka whispered out, peeking out from the covers. Kakashi turned slightly looking curiously at Iruka.

"Stay" Iruka blushed slightly. Kakashi looked more than surprised but practically dove onto the bed. Kakashi quickly snuggled into Iruka's neck, spooning the man from behind. Kakashi was still unsure as to where to place his hands, so he wrapped his arms around the man's shoulders instead. Iruka sighed in comforting missing the man's company from his bed.

"You're too skinny" Kakashi said suddenly making Iruka blush before saddening.

"I know" Iruka whispered out quietly. Kakashi kissed the man's neck softly.

"We'll work on it together okay?" Kakashi said gently making Iruka smile softly.

"Okay" Iruka sighed out.

Me and Kakashi

Both fell asleep quickly not realizing how tired they were. But they were together again and both wondered what tomorrow held.


I feel like that was really corny and romantic. Oh well. Those two things do share company sometimes. Anyway on to the next chapter! ^^ REVIEW!
