Chapter 13

 

 

 

~~~Iruka's head was pounding, and not just because he had one major ass hangover, but because he had forgoten how loud and hyperactive Naruto could be. He truely had to smile down at the blond boy, well not as down as he used to once upon a time. In Naruto's absence he had changed, some of his baby fat had dissappeared, his jumpsuit was slightly diffrent, black and orange, oddly enough it suited him well, and of course the most obvious, he had grown taller, he was no longer waist height but more along the lines of chest to collar bone height to Iruka. Damn. When did his hearts son grow up? Ya, ok he knew, he knew, but it was still a little strange for him. He could still see that little boy, the little hellion prankster that used to shout and cause so much mistief, in the young man before him. And though Naruto was still loud, still brash and totally hyperactive, you could just see it in the way he stood, the way he walked and even talked, by just the look in those deep blue eyes of his, Naruto had not only grown up, he'd grown wiser as well.

 

~~~They sat at a booth at Icharuka ramen eating. Iruka chuckled as Naruto told him about his travels and his training with Jiraiya. Iruka was sure Naruto must be embelishing some of his stories, he couldn't imagine that the great toad sannin was as perverted as Naruto was making him out to be. But then again, it wouldn't surprise him one bit, since he now knew that it was Jiraiya that wrote those Icha Icha books Kakashi was so fond of reading where ever he went. Iruka had to laugh out loud a little when he thought back to when Naruto had used his sexy no jutsu on him and he had spewed blood. It had startled him so much that he could not help it. He had not been to happy when he had been called a pervert by Naruto and a few of his other students for months afterwards. And then thinking of Kakashi and his love for Icha Icha and now the great Sannin who wrote said Icha Icha, Iruka wondered if Naruto was destined to always be taught by people with questionable morals. Yes that included him, but Naruto did not need to know how questionable his old sensei's morals truely were. It also made him wonder a little about Naruto's father and mother. Which one of them had been the hellion? The Prankster? The Loud and bold one? And considering that Naruto's first real jutsu had been the sexy no jutso, which one of them had been a bit on the perverted side? It made him smile thinking of who it might of been, he had a pretty good guess but, then again, he hadn't known either of them, so who could say?

 

~~~Iruka was laughing at one of Naruto's more rather colorful accounts when he saw Naruto jump up and run towards the entrance of Icharuka. Iruka turned around to see Naruto bouncing up and down like the twelve year old he had once been. His object of attention was none other than Hatake Kakashi.

 

"Kakashi sensei! Kakashi sensei! I'm back, I'm back! Didja miss me? huh? didja didja? Man I cant wait to show you all the cool stuff ero sennin taught me!..I'm alot stronger than I used to be Kakashi sensei you just wait and see!" Naruto babbled non stop, hopping and bouncing around his other sensei. It made Iruka a bit jealous, but the look in Kakashi's one visable eye made Iruka feel stupid for being petty yet again. The silver haired jounin had a twinkle in his eye and you could see the warmth coming from it as he looked down at Naruto. That bastard was still way taller than Naruto, hitting Iruka's ego a bit, but the look of happiness and joy on both their faces made it hard for Iruka to be mad.

 

~~~Kakashi ruffled Naruto's hair and Naruto swiped at his hands and grumbled about being to old to have his hair tousled like a kids. Iruka just couldn't wipe the huge smile on his face at the scene. But what happened next almost made Iruka want to fall on the floor laughing his ever loving butt off.

 

"Yes Naruto I see that your back...I'm sure the entire village knows your back by now..still as loud as ever I see?" Kakashi remarked, although you could tell by the look in his eyes and the humor in his tone that he was teasing and he was glad to see the blond again. Naruto pouted.

 

"HEY!...fine be like that Kakashi sensei, see if I ever get you a present again." stated Naruto in a frown, his lips still pursed in a pout and his arms crossed over his chest. Iruka was not at all surprised that Naruto had gotten Kakashi a present, Naruto had given him one as well before the left the house, he had mention getting presents for Kakashi and Sakura.

 

"A present? For me?" Kakashi asked, the suprised look in his one eye, making Iruka wonder if anyone had ever given him a present before. It sort of made this spot in his chest hurt when he thought of the man NEVER having had a present before. Iruka shook his head to rid himself of the thought and the feeling, why should he care wether Kakashi ever got a present in his life? Why should he care that Kakashi had never really had a child hood now that he thought about it, why should he care that Kakashi had been a genin, chunin and jounin at such a young age that he had been a killer by the time he was twelve. Nope he didn't care about any of that, or about the stupid ache in his chest that wouldn't go away when he thought of how diffrent thier lives were and even after all Iruka's loses, he probably still had a happier childhood than Kakashi.

 

"Yup, got ya a present you old pervert..but you have to swear to keep it under wraps ok? If not ero sennin will kill me and I had to do alot of stupid stuff in order for him to agree to let me have it for you." Naruto explained as he went through his ruck sack and pulled out what looked like a manuscript. Iruka watched at Kakashi took the gift from Naruto's out stretched hand and looked down at it. Iruka was curiuous, Kakashi's hand actually trembled and his eye widened in surprise. What was it?

 

"This...tell me this is what I think it is?" Kakashi almost whispered revrently as he looked at the front of the manuscript.

 

"Yup ero sennin's latest volume of Icha Icha violence, its still in its rough draft so things might change once it goes to print, but I convinced the old pervert to let me have a copy for ya." Naruto explained, his whole face lit up, that huge vulpine smile gracing his whiskered like cheeks as he watched the suprised but almost orgasmic look on Kakashi's face. Iruka watched as Kakashi held the book to his chest like a child and sighed almost dreamaly before he picked Naruto up and placed a big sloppy covered kiss on Naruto's cheek, you could even hear the huge overly dramatic smack when the kiss ended.

 

~~~The look on Naruto's face was priceless, Iruka busted out laughing, holding his sides as he saw the blonds face turn redder than a raddish before he bellowed out his out rage at being kissed by his old pedophile perverted sensei. Kakashi laughed and dodged the swings and kicks Naruto threw at him at a rather impressive speed. Iruka noted. Naruto had gotten faster, but sadly Kakashi was faster. Iruka couldn't help but refraind from falling off his seat as he watched the antics between Naruto and Kakashi. Kakashi laughing and no doubt grinning like a cheshire cat under that mask of his as he dodged blow after blow from a furious blond who was yelling for all he was worth. It was so funny and yet endearing that it was the first time in Iruka's life that he had ever actually seen any sort of affection from Kakashi, let alone from Kakashi to Naruto, and it made Iruka wonder if Kakashi had played with Naruto like that before. From the looks on both of their faces it was like an old game, a routine, and Iruka started to feel aweful again. Maybe he had misjudged Kakashi more than he thought? He rubbed at his chest absently, trying to rid himself of that stupid, invisable ache, that wouldn't seem to just leave him be.

 

 

 

A/N~ya ya I know its like a filler and I can only beg you guys for forgiveness!!!!! Im sorrrrrry!...but I thought it was a bit cute, and I am trying to show a bit of Iruka's thoughts as he starts to see Kakashi in a diffrent light. I know the chapter is short but my muse is still gone, it has decided to take an extended vacation and I am having a hard time trying to wrangle the little sucker back. Anyhow hopefully was not too bad and hopefully the next update will be alot sooner, than later. Thanks for all the reviews, support and all the love, it still amazes me that people actually ask for a new chapter to this fic, it makes me one happy happy girl, ty ty ty, huggles and smiles Mija...:-)
