CHAPTER TWO: MR PERFECT

Iruka was really happy. He could see Naruto almost everyday! And not just him! Sometimes when Naruto was practicing at the training field with Kakashi and his new team Iruka was coming to take him for some lunch. That was Iruka's only chance to see his secret crush. Every time he was with Naruto at the training grounds his eyes were looking for one particular masked soldier. One look was enough for Iruka to make his day a good one.

He secretly admired this famous warrior since first time he saw him. Not just his skills in wielding the sword but also those strong hands that wield it. He dreamed about having those arms around him but his dreams were always very innocent. Iruka just couldn't imagine that Sharingan Kakashi could ever think of him that way… or ANY way. Kakashi probably didn't even know who Iruka was. He seemed to not remember their little argument either. That was good, because Naruto did great during the tournament, just as Kakashi said… and he even saved the village!

Iruka wasn't beautiful or special. He knew about that and never had his hopes high. He admired his idol from afar and he was happy that he could do at least that. He never hoped for anything more or better. He knew it was hopeless, but he wasn't worried about that. He thought that everybody felt the same about the great general. This man was just so desirable and so perfect. It was hard not to stare at him, but Iruka tried not to and he succeeded.

Kakashi loved and hated Iruka's visits on the training grounds. He loved the fact that he was bale to look at him, see his smile and hear his voice. He loved the way Iruka was scolding his pupil for squeezing him too hard (or for doing it at all). He was frowning but his eyes were so warm, calm and full of love and care and all other feelings that Kakashi would like to receive from him. Iruka had so much to give. Kakashi knew the story about Iruka and that guy – Mizuki Touji. He knew that Iruka wouldn't trust another guy too easily again. Naruto had Iruka's love and trust all to himself. That was what Kakashi hated. When Iruka was there with them he only looked at Naruto, talked to Naruto, smiled at Naruto. Kakashi wondered if Iruka hated him for this whole thing with the tournament. If he did he never showed that. He was just ignoring Naruto's commander. Now that the boy was safe Iruka probably already forgot that he ever talked to Kakashi.

So Kakashi hated that Iruka was ignoring him. Of course he bowed to him with all due respect every single time they met but it was always so painfully formal that Kakashi could feel his insides bleeding. It was like a torture. Kakashi wasn't self-centered but he knew his worth. He was popular among both males and females. He was attractive even not showing his face. He was pretty damn sure that he could have anyone except this one person he actually really wanted.

To be honest he never really tried to get closer to Iruka. They were soldiers. They risked their lives every single day. Kakashi didn't want to loose another important person so he chose to not have any important people. It was safe and easy choice… until now. Now he realized how stupid this way of thinking was. He met Iruka few years ago. He realized that he's attracted to him at least two years ago. Maybe he could be happy with him for all that time but he wasn't because he was afraid to loose something that wasn't even his. He was an idiot! And now he wasn't even a memory to Iruka. Instead of Kakashi there was this damn stiff Ebisu following Iruka's every step. Ebisu's rank was almost as high as Kakashi's but Iruka didn't treat him so formal. He liked that freak! He was so nauseously nice to him. He even smiled at him sometimes! He would probably laugh at his jokes if Ebisu ever tell any!

Kakashi watched Iruka from a distance for a long time and now when Naruto confirmed his worries he finally decided to do something about it.

Since Kakashi said that he knows how to get rid of the Closet Pervert Naruto worried less about that case but still it was far from comfort. Kakashi still didn't tell him his brilliant idea and he was acting strange. Well… stranger than he normally was. He said that to make his plan work he needs to get to know Iruka better. Naruto did everything he could to make them talk to each other but it was strangely pathetic. "Good afternoon, Hatake-sama..." and "Hello, Iruka-sensei…" – that was as far as they could usually get. Then they tried to pretend that they don't see each other. Naruto tried to start some conversation with telling Iruka something that Kakashi did but than Iruka blushed and answered: "That is truly amazing." And Kakashi practically ran away giving some hopeless lie as an excuse. Naruto was confused.

Kakashi and Naruto were sparring together. Kakashi was wearing his usual clothes: loose white shirt with bouffant sleeves, black tight trousers and long leather boots with silver gads. He also had a black scarf wrapped around his head that covered his face and the Copy Wheel Eye. He had no problem with dodging Naruto's attacks. The boy had a great magical powers but he still needed a lot of practice with sword.

"Kakashi-sensei" asked Naruto not stopping their match "when are you going to tell me about your plan?"

"I told you already: When I get to know Iruka better."

"And how are you going to do that if you don't want to even talk to him."

"What are you talking about? I do want!"

"Really? Then why you never talk to him?"

"Because… he doesn't want me to."

"How can you tell?"

"It's just obvious! He's ignoring me."

"That's not true!"

"It IS true!" Kakashi attacked a bit faster but Naruto dodged successfully.

"Kakashi-sensei, I don't care how good you know him or what do you think he thinks about you. Today I saw a huge red apple on Iruka's desk. I asked him about it because I wanted to eat it and he said that Ebisu-san gave it to him this morning. He gave him an apple!"

This time Kakashi hardly managed to avoid Naruto's blade.

"So what? What does that mean?"

"You don't know? He gives him presents! He's courting Iruka! He can't give him chocolates because Iruka is a man! So he brought an apple! Can't you see that? And he chose an apple of all other fruits because it is an obvious symbol!"

"Symbol of… what?"

"Of SIN of course! He is tempting him like in the Bible! It's like he's trying to say: Come on Iruka, take a bite! Sin with me! And this apple was red! It's…"

Kakashi used Naruto's anger and distraction and knocked out the sword from his hand.

"Hey… Naruto. I think you may be overreacting a bit…"

"Tell me your plan, NOW!"

"All right…"

Naruto walked to his sword, picked it up and sheathed it. Then they sat in the shadow an old willow tree where Kaeru has been waiting for him. He picked up the frog and put it on his shoulder. Kakashi sighed and started talking:

"You want Iruka to be happy, right?"

"Sure I do! That's why I'm going to get rid of that perverted stalker!"

"And it's because he isn't good enough for Iruka, right?"

"Damn right!"

"But you do understand that Iruka probably wants to be with someone."

"Well… even if he does…"

"There is no "if", Naruto. I'm sure he wants to be with someone. It's only natural. Nobody wants to live alone."

"Even you?"

Kakashi looked at Naruto with a serious look in his only visible eye and shrugged.

"So if you want to get rid of Ebisu you need to find for Iruka someone better or he won't be happy."

"You want me to give Iruka away to some guy?"

"Iruka doesn't belong to you. And YES if you want him to be happy you will have to let him be with someone. You know that."

"But I can't do that!"

"Why? Do you have a crush on him?"

Naruto blushed "…No!… I just… I can't stand the thought about some stranger touching Iruka! I just can't!"

"It doesn't have to be a stranger."

"You know what I mean! I hated that bastard Mizuki and I was right! This time I'm right too! I must kick Ebisu out of Iruka's life!"

"And then what? Are you going to do that to every guy that comes near him?"

"If I have to…"

"Well you can't."

"Why?"

"I already told you. Iruka needs someone to be with."

"How can you be so sure?"

"You are still such a brat…"

"So you want me to pick the right guy for Iruka? And then what?"

"I think that Iruka respects your opinion a lot. You could tell him few words about the guy and encourage him a little into the right direction. You know… Direct his attention to the right target."

"What if he won't like the guy I choose?"

"Then you could try to show to Iruka that guy's good sides and his worth and maybe than he would change his mind."

"What if that guy I choose won't like Iruka?"

"It's not possible. Not if you pick the right one. If he won't like Iruka than we may assume that he's an idiot!"

"That's true! You're right! It's brilliant! Now we only have to choose the lucky guy!"

"So… What are your expectations?"

"I don't know yet. He should be handsome and be a good and strong fighter. That's necessary. He must be able to protect Iruka!"

"Why? He's not able to protect himself?"

"He is! But the guy still must be strong! Iruka wouldn't like any weakling! And I want to be proud of my choice so he MUST be strong! And he must be tall because I think Iruka likes when the guy is taller than him."

"So far so good... What else?"

"Hmmmm… I don't know. He should be smart. And he shouldn't be boring like that Ebisu guy. And he should be noble and honest and decent and respectable!"

Kakashi tried to keep up and check if he fits to all Naruto's expectations. He was pretty sure that he seriously does! But was he decent…? He surely wasn't boring! It was hard to think about it when Naruto kept talking.

"And the most important thing is…"

"Yes?"

"He must be a good guy. All those other things are not that important. Not as important as this last one. I would rather choose some cripple or some ugly guy who would love and respect Iruka than some super handsome and strong Mr. Perfect who would hurt him. I would have to kill him… like I almost killed Mizuki."

"So do you know anyone like that?" …like me maybe?

"No."

"…oh…"

"I think that he would have to be a pure perfection to be like that. And there are no perfections in this imperfect world, right?"

"Well I think that you could find that kind of guy. You never give up. That's your motto."

"You're right! I must start looking around to find him!"

"Why around? Look straight ahead!"

"Ahead…? I KNOW! I know the guy who is really good looking and he is strong! And funny! He always jokes around in the mission room! He will be the first one on my list! He's got brown hair and he likes to chew some ugly stick but he is kind of cool! Do you know him?"

"Shiranui Genma. He's an ass."

"Really?" Naruto was very disappointed. "Why?"

"He's… He… He's lazy."

"I'm sure his not as lazy as Shikkamaru! And he's good looking!"

"He's arrogant!"

"But strong! I saw him fighting!"

"He likes girls!"

"…Are you sure?"

Now Kakashi was between hell and high water. He could lie and make Naruto forget about Genma or be honest and tell the truth and that would cause a problem…

Was honesty high on Naruto's list?

"No… I'm not sure…"

"Then I'll check that! I'll go right away!"

Naruto picked himself up and dusted himself off. Then he ran somewhere to talk to people and ask them about Shiranui Genma.

Naruto found a few of his friends in a park. There was Inuzuka Kiba, Nara Shikamaru, green from head to toes Rock Lee and some weird guy who was hiding his face in a high collar of his coat.

"Hey guys! What are you doing?"

Kiba was the one to answer: "We're waiting for the girls. They went for a walk. Lee hopes to walk Sakura home."

"Oh… You like Sakura, Lee?"

"Well… Yes, Naruto-kun. I am sorry my friend but it seems that from now on I shall be your eternal RIVAL!" Every day Lee was becoming more and more like his sensei. That was cute.

"No, Lee it's all right. I think I don't like Sakura so much anymore. Guys I need to ask you something important."

"SAKURA-SAN! YOU MAKE MY HEART BLOSSOM. YOU ARE THE LIGHT OF MY LIFE AND THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FLOWER OF YOUTH AND…"

Sakura forced a sweet smile: "Lee, don't talk so loud!" When she saw Naruto she blushed. "Naruto-kun…" Naruto wasn't in the mood for small-talks. He needed to get some important information from the boys. He couldn't ask about someone's sexual preferences in lady's presence. He had to get rid of her and her fried Ino. He had to do something to make them go home with Lee as soon as possible. "Hello Sakura-chan… Hello Ino! Aren't you going back to the castle?"

"Yes we do! Would you like to accompany us? We would love to hear about your travels!"

Now Naruto was pissed. "No Sakura-chan. I think it will be better if Lee walk you home." Sakura clenched her teeth. "I insist Nasruto-kun!" That was creepy. Naruto felt a drop of sweat on his forehead. "All right Sakura-chan… Guys I'll be back in the minute, all right? I need to talk to you!"

Sakura grabbed Naruto's right forearm while Ino grabbed his left hand and they dragged him towards the castle.

"Naruto-kun… It's been a wile…" Sakura was "nice" again.

"Yes, but don't worry Sakura-chan, you haven't change one bit!"

For a moment Naruto thought that he saw some Chidori-ilke things coming out of Sakura's eyes but she quickly calmed… or at least she tried to hide her growing fury. Finally she even smiled and said:

"You've changed a lot Naruto-kun. You've grown up."

"Really? I didn't notice…"

They talk about some totally irrelevant stuff all the way to the castle and to lady's rooms. And then Ino invited him for a tea. He tried to get off of this but Sakura was so scary that he decided to just drink the tea and leave immediately. But it wasn't as easy as he had planned. It was hard because girls were acting… strange. They sat very close to Naruto. Sakura didn't hit him even once since they met today and she was smiling. Naruto almost fainted when he realized that she was trying to be flirtatious!

The girls were impressed by his appearance. He was tall and beautifully tanned. His messy blond hair was kind of sexy and his innocent eyes were so tempting… "I can't believe that you are the same boy that used to have some disgusting frog as his pet… ha… ha… ha…"

Ino was slowly getting closer to the boy looking into his overwhelming cerulean eyes when he finally said:

"Actually, Kaeru is still my pet!"

Naruto put the frog on his lap. Sakura started to scream.

"O my Gooooooooooooooood! It's a frog! Throw it away! Naruto! I will kill you!"

She pushed Naruto away and he fell of the sofa. He hit the floor with a loud rumble.

"Kaeru!"

The frog fell a few feet away from him and it seemed to be unconscious. Naruto was terrified. He picked up his little friend with tears in his eyes. Sakura felt a little guilty, but Ino obviously didn't.

"You know, you should throw it away long time ago! What kind of pet is that? It's repulsive! … And I was going to kiss you!"

"Kiss me? I would never kiss someone as cruel and vain as you!"

"Really? And you are disgusting! You will never kiss any girl if you don't throw that frog away! It's ugly! If you like it so much than maybe you'd rather kiss frogs than girls you freak!"

"Sure I'd rather kiss Kaeru than you or any of your stupid friends!"

"Than prove it to me!"

Naruto wiped his tears. He would do anything now to prove that he loved his pet and that he would never kiss any of them.

"I will do it! Maybe Kaeru will turn out to a princess under the spell!"

"If you kiss it you will have pimples on your face! Don't do it!" whined Sakura.

"I will do it!"

"No. I don't want to look at that!"

"You asked for it!"

The events of the next moments were like a dream. Naruto was holding Kaeru in his hands, near his face ready to kiss it. Sakura was repeating over and over that he should stop but he felt that he have to do it. Like someone's life could depend on that. He didn't even noticed what happened. He closed his eyes and pressed his lips to the delicate skin of the frog.

Then there was a smoke - a lot of smoke. It took a while for Naruto to realize that he was crushed by something heavy. He couldn't see what it was through the smoke but it was soft… soft and very warm. It felt nice even though it was a bit heavy. Naruto's hands found their way to that strange mysterious "thing". It felt like a human skin – smooth and silky, simply perfect. It was so nice to touch that skin that Naruto didn't even try to stop. He moved his left hand and then he could tell that it really was a human – tall and slim. Then his hand stopped at something that convinced him that the said person is actually a man. Naruto blushed and retreat his hand.

The smoke vanished slowly and then he could see that there rally was a man's body lying on him. But it wasn't just some body. It was perfect – slim but also muscular with smooth ivory skin. Whoever it was he was beautiful. Naruto couldn't even feel confused about that thought because there was no place for this at the moment. All he could think about was the warmth he felt. The cause of this warmth was definitely this angelic black haired creature in his arms but the source of it was in Naruto's own body - in its lower parts to be precise. Naruto basked in the moment. It was total bliss.

What he felt next was like someone would throw cold water on him and it was caused by the one single word coming from Sakura: "Sasuke…"
