Dreamland Part 10

Sep 24, 2006 22:25

No dirty songs this time.
Iruka awoke, blissfully alone. The pounding head didn’t bother him at all, because when he woke up, miserably hung-over, he recalled as much of the past evening’s events as possible and the main recollection was that he had fallen asleep with Kakashi still in his apartment.

He wasn’t sure what he expected: waking up with his hands bond to the headboard and a naked and ready Kakashi at the foot of the bed, waking up naked with Kakashi already attached to his cock, or maybe waking up in a nurse’s outfit with Kakashi wanting to play doctor. The scenarios were endlessly unnerving. But none had come to pass.

Perhaps Kakashi had given up on him. Maybe he had puked on the Copynin at some point last night. He didn’t recall puking, but that would disgust anyone. It was hard to think about having sex with someone after you’d witnessed them puking, at least for a while anyway.

Such a lovely thought to go along with such a lovely morning. Iruka made himself a batch of super strong coffee, showered, dressed and picked up some breakfast on his way to work (the cupboard was surprisingly bare).

With any luck he wouldn’t run into Kakashi for at least a week. The mission room was abuzz when he got there. Kotetsu was handing Genma a mission scroll as he sat down to take his seat.

“Iruka I’m surprised you made it in on time, I have your log book.”

“Thanks Kotetsu.” Iruka took the log book and noticed that both Genma and Kotetsu were smiling at him, apparently amused about something. “Is something going on?”

“No, no we’re just glad everything worked out.” Genma winked at Iruka.

“What’s that supposed to mean?!” Iruka asked, annoyed. What was it that he was supposed to have worked out? Besides, he didn’t run into Genma last night, Kotetsu either. He pretty much drank alone, only waving at a few friends when they made their way to the bar to order their drinks.

“Well you know, we were concerned when Kakashi said you two were having a row, but when he came in this morning, well…,” was Kotetsu blushing? And Genma…what the hell was Genma doing with that senbon?

Iruka had a very bad feeling about this. “Well, what?”

“Well you two did make up last night, right?” Genma asked, pulling the senbon out his mouth slowly, way too slowly.

Iruka recalled Kakashi apologized and he didn’t stick a kunai in the other man, that was probably the most civil conversation that he had had with the Copynin in quite some time, but he had a feeling that wasn’t what Genma was referring to. Besides, Kakashi and Iruka had no relationship so make up didn’t seem like the right term.

“What exactly did Kakashi say this morning?” Iruka asked, nervously.

“Well he didn’t really say much just that when you got home last night, you were really drunk and even though you kept touching his chest and thighs, he refused to take advantage of you in your current state, so he put you to bed and watched over you while you slept, cutely mumbling his name. You’re really lucky, Iruka. Not everyone’s as much of a gentleman as Kakashi. A lot of guys would’ve tried something.” Kotetsu said.

Iruka was pissed. “Why that… I can’t believe you bought that load of crap. Did he even tell you what he was doing at my apartment in the first place? Huh? Besides why the hell do you think I went out and got plastered last night anyway? It’s all that bastard’s fault!”

“Now sensei, don’t get so worked up. Kakashi can be a brat sometimes but he’s loyal like a dog and as cheesy as those books he reads are, he’s picked up some tricks that from them that can really soothe a man’s nerves.” Genma made a motion with his senbon that clearly indicated he had sampled Kakashi’s wares at some point or another.

Iruka just snorted. “I don’t know what the hell you think is going on between Kakashi and myself, but let me set the record straight: I have absolutely no interest in the man whatsoever! We do not have a relationship and I have absolutely no problem keeping my hands off of him, whether I’m drunk or sober!”

“If you say so.” Kotetsu didn’t look convinced.

“I do say so!” Iruka was fuming now, so much for the happy start to his day. He had no doubt that Kakashi had made it sound much more perverted that it was. He made everything sound perverted.

Iruka was still irate when an ANBU squad appeared in the middle of the mission room. They were dirty, bloody and had burn marks on their armor. They were immediately granted access to the hokage, who minutes later, opened the door and called all chunin and jounin to the tower for a special meeting.
