Chapter Three
~Naruto was growling as he made his way down the many corridors of the campus. He was headed to Iruka’s office. Ya he was a professor as well, he taught Language Arts, Japanese. Naruto would of loved to have taken his class his first year, but since Iruka had been his babysitter and good friend since he was little, he had taught Naruto how to speak it fluently, not that he hadn’t had a start, his mothers, mother had been Japanese and he had always spoken in Japanese to their mother before he passed away, Kushina passed that on to her children, so that they would know their roots. It was one of the reasons Iruka had been a prime babysitter, who had been willing to help Naruto learn the language that always gave him a bit of trouble, Kyuu had picked it up right away.
~Their father was partial Greek on his mothers side, and Naruto and Kyuu had had to learn that as well. So when Naruto had tried to sign up for both Japanese and Greek, for easy credit, he had been denied, Iruka had snitched on him, at first Naruto had been furious, but a pissed Iruka was a very, very scary thing and he did not tolerate slackers or cheaters and expected more from those he held in high esteem and loved. When going head to head with Iruka sensei you had to be made of freaking ice for blood and titanium for skin. To say Naruto didn’t stay made at Iruka for snitching him out for more than an hour would explain how scary Iruka sensei could really be, and the look of utter disappointment in his deep brown eyes when he looked at Naruto for trying to take the easy way out, had not helped one bit. Naruto HATED when Iruka looked at him like that, like he had let him down, and he would do ANYTHING to show Iruka he was worthy of Iruka’s respect.
~After the morning Naruto had had he desperately needed to see his favorite person other than Kyuu, to help calm his temper down. He couldn’t believed they had tried to WALK HIM to class! The nerve of the old hag and perverted old man to think he was a child in grade school who needed his quote ’parents’ to walk him to his first day of school. Naruto had been pissed, and the scene they had had out front in the parking lot with every body staring at them only made Naruto angrier, not that he really cared what others thought of him, he never had and never would, he was himself and if that wasn’t good for them then they could shove it where the sun didn’t shine. But come on people, his freaking ’parents’ had TRIED TO WALK HIM TO CLASS! How in the world would you feel if you were on your way to your first day at college and your ’parents’ wanted to tag along to make sure you made it to the right class on time? He was fucking eighteen years old for freaks sake and he would not be treated like a child.
~He finally reached Iruka’s office and didn’t bother to knock as he opened the door slowly and poked his head in, he had learned long ago, that when it came to Iruka and Kakashi, that damn pervert, one had to be on guard for unexpected gropage. When the door was opening he could hear the faint sound of a slow song playing in the back round. He recognized it of course, the lyrics familiar to him but the title eluded him. “God bless you..you make me feel brand new, for God blessed me with you, you make me feel brand new, make me feel brand new. Precious friend you came into my life when I needed a friend, taught me how to live and love again, you make me feel brand new…..” (a/n-don’t worry not a song fic, but I couldn’t remember the name of the song so I put a few words of it up so you could get the jist of it. Of course I am sure its not in sequence but the words are in the song non the less).
~Naruto opened the door very, very slowly, careful to not make a sound, he knew what he would see, he had seen it before when he had spent the night at their place once. The song was thee song, Kakashi and Iruka’s song, the one that they chose to define them, to let others know how important they meant to each other, and you could feel it as well as see it when you looked at them.
~Right now Naruto let the lyrics flow thru him as he peeked on his oblivious teachers and old friends. Both stood by the window as the early morning sun bathed them with its warmth and glow, making them look almost ethereal, angelic. They were not dancing per say but they were swaying side to side to the time of the music as Iruka buried his contented, peaceful face into Kakashi chest, his arms wrapped around his waist, his eyes closed and the barest hint of a tender smile playing upon his lips. Kakashi held Iruka close, so close there was not a breath of air between their bodies, as his long lanky body seemed to wrap itself around his precious person, his own face nestled in the warm dark brown hair of his lover. Kakashi too had his eyes closed as he rocked with Iruka to the song and just the look on his face alone, the look of utter serenity, of bliss, was awe inspiring, it wouldn’t take a genius to see how much these two loved each other. Naruto envied that love sometimes, he wished he had someone special to spend his life with.
~As the very intimate and private scene played out and the song drew to its finale, Naruto began to sneak back out, as not to get caught, he respected them enough not to intrude on something as precious and intimate as that. But before he could even make a single move he was stopped by the warm but stern voice of Iruka sensei, danm it and he was using his scary teachers voice. Naruto suppressed a shiver.
~“FREEZE you peeping tom.” cam the calm but spooky voice of Naruto’s precious person.
~”I WASN’T peeping!” Naruto squawked indignantly. His tanned scarred cheeks turning a nice color of light pink at having been caught.
~”Then what would you call it Naru-chan?” Iruka asked as he pulled himself slowly from his lovers embrace and turned to face his favorite blond, crossing his arms across his chest and leaning his hip against the edge of his desk. Damn it Naruto hated that stance, it inspired fear,
~”Don’t call me Naru-chan! I am not a child anymore gosh darn it.” Naruto stated with all his gusto, he learned long ago not to cuss in front of Iruka sensei, not if you wanted you head lump free that is.
Iruka had been calling Naruto Naru-chan since he was little and no matter how much Naruto protested that he was to old for his childhood nick name, Iruka never did cease calling him that. If only to himself he would admit to liking the affectionate term but he hated when he used it in front of others, especially Kakashi, who had used it to torment poor Naruto for months on end.
~”You sound like one to me.” came Kakashi’s two cents, his lanky frame leaning against the book case, looking like the lazy bastard he was. Naruto growled at him.
~”No one’s talking to you, you pervert!” Naruto shouted, Iruka frowned and Naruto stepped back.
~”Language Naru-chan.”
~”Yes sensei.” Naruto replied automatically and apologetically.
~”And Kakashi?”
~”Yes love?”
~”Your as bad as Naru-chan so stop teasing him.” Iruka replied, not looking at his lover, not having to, Kakashi knew as well as anyone not to get on Iruka’s bad side.
~”Yes love.”
~”How..how did you know I was hear?” Naruto ventured to ask, already having spiked his old sitter/teachers temper.
~”You could NEVER sneak up on me Naru…never could…besides with all that cologne on I could smell you down the hall.” Replied Iruka, looking the same, but letting the teasing gleam in his eyes to show thru.
~”Seriously Naruto, did you bath in it?” Kakashi asked, waving his hand in front of his face and fanning the air in front of his nose. Before Naruto could retaliate to his barb, Iruka let his elbow come into contact with Kakashi’s gut, reminding the man of his earlier statement about teasing.
~”I’m soo going to look forward to taking your class Kakashi sensei.” Naruto stated with a huge grin and goofy expression, for those that did not know him they would think his words were sincere and heartfelt, and in a way they were, but he did mean that he would enjoy being taught by the man, but he would enjoy it immensely when he tortured him. The sensei was an added bonus, he had only ever called Iruka sensei but now that Kakashi would be his teacher as well, it thought why not, and he knew it would grate on the mans nerves, for some reason, he hated it when Naruto called Iruka sensei, he once said, it sounded perverted. Only Kakashi could make something innocent and respectful sound dirty. Pervert! No doubt he and Iruka has played some version of the perverted sensei and the willing student. Naruto would NOT think about that at ALL.
~”So all ready for you first day of college Naru?” Iruka asked, letting go the stern teacher stance and smiling like the sweet man he truly was.
~”Tch….would have been if the old man and aunt Tsu hadn’t tried to WALK me to class, can you believe it? Walk me to class like some grade schooler?” Naruto huffed, both older men smiled, but Kakashi’s was a bit more sinister and Iruka introduced his elbow to his gut again to keep him from saying something to rile Naru up.
~”They are just concerned for you Naru-chan that’s all.” Iruka piped in, hoping the boy wouldn’t go into one of his famous loud rants.
~”Ya ya whatever, anyway I just stopped by to say hi, but its getting late and my first class is on the other side of the campus.”
~”What’s your first class?”
~”Chemistry with Professor Orochimaru, you think he’s from Japan too? It sounds like his name originated there?” Naruto asked innocently enough. Both men frowned.
~”You’ve never met him?” Kakashi asked.
~”Of course not, why would I?”
~”Lets just say hes an old acquaintance of Tsunade and Jiraiya.”
~”Really? Why have I never heard them speak of him? And he’s never been to the house or ever called before, are you sure it’s the same Orochimaru?”
~”Ya he is, but I am not surprised, the three of them went to high school in Tokyo together, but for reasons I am not privy to they had a bit of a falling out, they’re not enemies or anything or hold any bad blood, they just don’t really talk, they drifted apart so to speak, in fact Orochimaru was also one of your dads professors, at the same time Jiraiya was, and Minato got along well enough with him.” Kakashi explained.
~”Well what do you know, did my dad know ALL of my soon to be professors?” Naruto asked with a pout, the phrase it’s a small world after all was looking like a fact.
~”Nope just me, Iruka and Orochimaru, not get going before your late, Oro really hates tardiness and he gives no slack, hes a pretty strict professor.” warned Kakashi warned.
~”Oh great just what I need…” Naruto said as he ran out the door in a slight panic, hoping to get to his first class before the bell rang.
A/N-Okies here is the next chapter, hope you like, its short and not very exciting but I added a bit more backround to help explain some of the things like Naruto calling Iruka sensei even thought they are in the states, I just love the way it sounds so I wanted to use it. Anyhow as for Minato, I was trying to make him NOT Japanese so I figured Greek might be a close substitute for his name, I know its probably stupid really, but I thought Uzu-maki and I think there is a drink called Uzo in Greece so hence the name, could be wrong but I gave it a shot. Huggles and smiles Mija.
