004. Hours.

Pairings: [anti-]KakaTen & [ pro-]KakaIru
Warning: men luve ahead!

It had been several hours ago when he had seen his superior. His presence had gone unknown, unacknowledged, though.

He let out a heavy sigh, exhaling a continues, yet small, trail of smoke as his cigarette dug deeper and deeper into the ashtray before him, putting the said cigarette out when it reached it's final destination.

He sighed heavily again.

He sat there, all alone in a booth in one of the public and mature bars of Konohagakure. His view had been perfect, he watched varies of people come and go for several hours. They mysteriously passed him while being absorbed by their daily routines, too distracted in whatever they were doing that they didn't even notice that they were secretly being spied on, secretly being watched by him. Would they even notice his presence at all when they weren't busy doing their routines?

….Probably not.

Not one of them had felt the penetrating stare of the brown pair of almond-shaped orbs that had been secretly watching them. Not one would turn round, look at him from the other side of the window that stood between them as a solid hindrance, and greeted him.

Not a single one.

He sighed deeply as he desperately reached out for his pack of cigarettes to grab another one. Just then, at that exact moment, hours after his superior had turned his back on him, he saw him again.

His heart melted away at the mere sight of the lazy stance, yet physique appearance of the mysterious, sexy and masked men. Would he have ever known that he had impeccable influence on his former student? Would he have done what he had done?

His stomach had been turning, the former oh-so sleeping butterflies had been awakened and were now furiously crawling in his abdomen.

He had loved him from the day he had lied his eyes on him, on that interesting individual named Hatake Kakashi, but he had never dared to admit his feelings out loud and confront his superior with his inner struggle of conflicted emotions.

It was too late now.

He lit another cigarette, his lips welcomed the small object and it's addictive taste. As he placed his lighter back onto the table beside his pack of smokes, something suddenly caught his eye – the man who had was accompanying his loved one.

His teeth immediately grinded against each other in pure anger, crushing and tearing the once oh-so solid object, that had been peacefully resting between his lips, into shreds. His penetrating brown eyes were now spying the two men before him in utter disgust, jealousy and hatred.

He had tried to look away, to focus his attention onto children that were playing, jump roping and so on, but he was reluctantly forced to watch the two men passing slowly by. No matter how often he tried to look away, his eyes kept gliding back towards their direction - much to his dismay.

The two men were showing their affection towards each other by holding hands - their fingers tangled together. It created a confusing sea of many fingers, no one could say which finger originated from which specific man.

The same two men had ripped his beating heart out of his chest and had stamped on it, and the Academy teacher, unknowingly, had danced onto it afterwards, as if to celebrate his new victory.

Oh yes, several hours ago, the man whom he so greatly held dear and loved, had publically engaged into a relationship with the Chuunin and had broken Tenzo's lonely and miserably heart.

Forever.

Do not kill me, please? I was simply in the mood for some drama, and something different. This popped up into my head, who knows why?

I don't want people screaming, '' KAKAIRU IS ZHE BEST! KAKATEN SUCKS!'' or '' KAKATEN ROCKS! KAKAIRU STINK!'', because I simply do not like that shit and will kick your ass for it. Besides, the most likely pairing that will succeed will be.... KakaGai.. there, now you know it!

I know, I know.. Tenzo isn't your every day type that would smoke, but yea.. do you mind? I thought it would bring some extra drama with it.

Oh, shoot. I just wrote anti-KakaTen and pre-KakaIru. What's wrong with me?! D:
