Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto

Naruto, Kakashi, Iruka, Sasuke, and Sakura had gone out on a simple mission. Iruka had demanded to go on the mission so he could take Naruto and Kakashi out for ramen after. It turned out to be less a simple mission and more lying in the grass bloody and in pain. Iruka dragged his body over to Kakashi and pulled his mask down to kiss him. Kakashi held on to Iruka, feeling desperately tired. He had spent too much chakra but had taken down the attacker after Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura failed Iruka and Kakashi took up the fight. Iruka had been injured but before it could become serious for the tan ninja, Kakashi stepped in; taking all the damage meant for Iruka and, ignoring the pain, took down the enemy. The three kids had never seen their teacher without his mask and, as Naruto was the only one still conscious; he was the only one to see. He staggered over looking at the two people he cared about the most in the world as they kissed, both covered in blood and wincing at the pain. They were happy to be alive, and happy to be together, and happy that their son was okay. Naruto laughed loudly breaking the two from their kiss with startled confusion. "I thought your face was going to be all crazy or something." Naruto said loudly. Kakashi looked at Iruka for explanation. "And you wore the mask to hide it and that's why you wouldn't even take it off to kiss Iruka." Naruto laughed louder, startling all nearby birds who quickly took flight in fear.

"I have a very ordinary face." Kakashi said pulling up his mask with a small laugh at Naruto's idiocy.

"Quite a lovely face." Iruka laughed ruffling Naruto's blond hair. "Ready for ramen?" He asked as he picked up Sakura and threw her limp body over his shoulder. Naruto gave a hoot of excitement and trotted after him as Kakashi did the same with Sasuke.
