"Why didn't you tell me he worked here?" Naruto asked his mutt loving friend. He was still finding it hard to get over the fact that the stranger from the train station had turned out to be the instructor of the class he was taking specifically to get away from said person.
"How the hell was I supposed to know you knew the guy? I did tell you both of the instructors were weird didn't I." Kiba replied. "I don't know what the hell happened between you guys but you're giving me the full story on the way home." Kiba gave Naruto a look that said 'And don't you even try to worm your way out of it'.
"Full story of what?"
Naruto and Kiba turned around to see their two friends walking over to them. Shikamaru was lazily chewing on a straw while Chouji literally inhaled chips from a bag. Shikamaru glanced at his blond friend once they arrived.
"Feeling better?" He asked.
"Yeah." Naruto said a little embarrassed. "Thanks.. uhm for.. your hand and everything."
"Don't worry about it." Shikamaru said as they started walking to the station. "It's only a small wound and it's over and done with anyway. Don't bother me with it anymore."
"Aww, poor Shika. Getting all flustered over Naruto's girlie charms." Kiba joked.
"Hey!" Naruto snapped angrily.
Shikamaru just mumbled his customary "You guys are so troublesome." Before he broke up the potential fight by asking."So what's this thing Naruto has to tell us about?"
"Oh just the reason why Naruto got it into his silly little head that Kakashi sensei was a perverted stalker out to get his virgin ass. Which he then shouted at the poor guy in front of the whole Martial arts club."
Both Shikamaru and Chouji burst out laughing at that, Chouji nearly suffocating on some chips as they went down the wrong way.
"I didn't know he worked here! The stunning god never bothered to mention that!"
"Stunning god?" All of his friends stopped walking and just stared at him.
Naruto felt his face heat up as he blushed scarlet. "Stupid guy! I said stupid guy! Now do you want to hear about it or not?" Naruto huffed.
Chouji decided Naruto didn't need any more encouragement from Kiba so he put his hand over his mouth before he turned to Naruto and, while trying not to burst out laughing again, said. "Go on."
They had reached the station, that was only a short walk away from their school, at that point and found a place to sit near their platform, away from the large crowd where they could talk in peace.
"Ok, out with it man." Kiba said impatiently. "How do you know Kakashi?"
"I met him at Suna station a few weeks back." Naruto began. "First time I met him we didn't really talk much, he was just being really weird so I ignored him. After that I started bumping into him every day when I went home from school and we'd chat and stuff before my train arrived." Naruto scratched his head self-consciously.
"Aww, our little baby Naruto's got a crush." Kiba cooed at him. Naruto hated when they called him that. There was no reason to rub the fact in his face that he was shorter than his three friends and it wasn't his fault that he was born later than them. He couldn't deny the crush part though.
"Well... yeah." He admitted as he blushed again.
"So? What happened?" Chouji asked. None of his friends had been overly concerned about it when Naruto had told them he was gay. Kiba had just jokingly told him he'd better not fall in love with him but he'd forgive Naruto for it anyway since it was such a hard thing not to do. They talked about the guys Naruto liked just like they would any girl the others found interesting.
"Nothing happened." Naruto said with a hint of annoyance. "I bailed like usual."
"Why?" Chouji asked before he could stop himself, he received a dark look from Kiba over Naruto's shoulder. Naruto turned to his large friend and extended his hand for a handshake.
"Hi." He said cheerily. "I'm Naruto, Uzumaki Naruto... oh you've heard the name before?.. Why yes I do happen to be related to that Uzumaki." Naruto finished sarcastically. He might have said it without a care in the world but the hand momentarily rubbing the left side of his chest didn't go unnoticed by his friends. "I thought I'd save myself the trouble of a rejection by just going ahead and breaking it off myself."
"He didn't seem to dislike you at all today though." Kiba said assuringly. "Maybe you do have a chance with him after all."
It was the truth. Kakashi hadn't shown any reaction when Naruto gave him his name for the first time. He'd only smiled that eye smile of his and told him he'd kind of figured out who he was since there was only one new name on the club roster and his was the only new face around. It made Naruto wonder if the guy knew about his past at all. He very rarely met anyone who hadn't heard the name Uzumaki and what it stood for, and if he did someone always found themselves obligated to inform said person just why they shouldn't associate themselves with him.
Kakashi had turned out to be a very good instructor, even better than Iruka who had taught the blond everything he knew. Naruto and the other members had spent the rest of practice learning various methods of overpowering their opponent.
"Well maybe he just didn't want to be mean to a student or something." Naruto thought out loud "Besides I don't even know if he's gay or not."
"I think he's bi." Kiba said. When this was met by six pairs of inquiring eyes Kiba continued awkwardly. "What? It's just what I've heard."
"From who?" Naruto asked.
"I heard those women who teach you art talking about it, you know the purple haired one and the one with the red eyes."
At this point their train arrived and they all got on, scoring some good seats where they could all sit close together.
"Anko and Kurenai?"
"Probably, I don't know their names. Anyway, Kakashi is pretty popular in school so there are always a bunch of rumors about him floating around."
"I haven't heard any of those. I didn't even know he worked at our school!" Naruto stressed for the tenth time that day.
"How could you not know! He taught our English class once." Kiba informed him.
"What? No he didn't, I think I would have remembered that." Naruto said loudly.
"You wouldn't actually, it was the time that flu was going around, you were home sick that day." Shikamaru said. Naruto wondered, not for the first time, just how much information Shikamaru's brain actually contained. The guy seemed to remember every damn little thing down to the finer details. Naruto could hardly remember what he ate for breakfast.
"So he teaches as well as running the club?" Naruto asked.
"I think he's just a substitute teacher." Chouji said as he munched on another bag of chips.
"He teaches literature too actually." Shikamaru told them.
"Haha, I can just imagine what he's actually making his students read." Kiba said jokingly.
Even Shikamaru, who was usually to lazy to show much of a reaction, laughed at that.
When things quieted down Kiba looked over at his blond friend. He really loved the guy like a brother and he wanted him to be happy. He put his arm around his shoulder and gave him a big grin. "Well what ever you decide to do we're here for you. Right guys?"
Shikamaru and Chouji both nodded in agreement.
"I'm not saying you couldn't have picked someone a little more... normal.. but hey, what ever tickles your fanny." Kiba smirked.
"It's what ever tickles your fancy. Smart ass." Naruto corrected his friend.
Kiba smirked. "Not in your case."

If Kakashi was anything like any other guy he would be standing in his office at the dojo grinning like an idiot at nothing and everything, making his friend and co-worker completely question his sanity. As it was Kakashi couldn't even remember a time when he himself had thought he was anywhere near being like everyone else so he was just lazily sitting at his desk face covered by his favorite orange book.
His friend and co-worker, Gai, on the other hand was questioning his eternal rivals sanity but for other reasons all together. It wasn't everyday that he saw a student yell at a teacher, and no one had ever dared to so much as hum in the direction of Kakashi in the wrong tone before. The guy was just totally off putting with the dark clothes, the mask and bandanna and the "come near me and I'll kill you with my little toe" aura, that look was a bit weird but so was the owner of it. He was nothing like Gai who always welcomed his students with a warm greeting and a friendly hug. Sure people would joke with him and things like that, Kakashi was a very easy going person really, but no one had ever dared to yell at him before. That is, until a very emotional Naruto had accused his best friend and eternal rival of stalking him. With some very evil intentions as well.
Now Gai was utterly confused. Surely Naruto had had some reason for thinking that way, but Kakashi couldn't be stalking him could he? Yes the man did read adult books quite often but he wouldn't stoop down to stalking innocent children would he? But why did Naruto think he was then? There must surely be some kind of a misunderstanding going on here. Maybe Naruto had been the one Kakashi was trying to woo lately. Yes that must be it. And since Kakashi wasn't very good with people Naruto must have misunderstood him. Yes that did sound about right Gai thought.
Kakashi was in fact not reading his book. He was waiting for his friends mind to slowly work out what ever crazy thoughts were going on in there right now, he could practically hear the gears in the mans head working overtime. Kakashi knew the chances weren't that high but he still hoped his friend was not thinking about something that concerned him. Of course he had to be proven right when his friend suddenly struck that ridiculous pose of his and proclaimed loudly.
"AhA! My dear friend. Naruto is the precious person you have been courting these past few days isn't he?"
Kakashi would have liked to point out that technically that would be a no. Because he had in fact been seeing the blond weeks before that and then he hadn't seen him at all for the past few days when he had been absent because the boy had actually been at the club. He didn't though because it would only have confused Gai and he really didn't want to explain any more of this than he absolutely had to.
Instead he settled for a vague yet truthful answer. "We talked a few times yeah."
"OH ho ho. And has the powerful youth captured your heart like none other?"
Kakashi willed himself to keep staring at his book and not give in to the urge to role his eyes.
"Sure he's interesting." Kakashi droned.
"Have you proclaimed your undying love for him already?"
What era was his friend from Kakashi wondered not for the first time... scratch that, what solar system had the guy crawled out off.
"Not really no." He replied without much enthusiasm.
"Don't worry my dear Eternal Rival! You have nothing to be shy about. Proclaiming your love can be very scary I know but the reward it gives is worth it! You must use the Power of your Youth while you still can and seize your love before it is taken by another. Don't worry at all about your inadequate social skills my friend! I will help you win the boy's heart!"
Kakashi lazily peeked over the edge of his book and gave his friend a fake look of confusion.
"I'm sorry did you say something?" He asked
"Gahhh! That's so like you. It pisses me off!"
x.x.x.x.x
When Gai was gone Kakashi sat at his desk a little bit longer. His thoughts focused on the blond boy.
"Captured my heart huh?" He mumbled to himself. Had the boy done that?
Naruto Uzumaki. Of course he had known who the boy was long before he'd told him. He'd known it long before he'd seen the name written on the team roster too. He'd known that name since he was young and there was no way in hell he was ever going to forget it.
At first Kakashi had just wanted to get close to the boy. Get to know him a little and see what his life was like before he'd slip out of it again the same way he'd entered it. He'd seen him on campus once and recognized him immediately. But the blond was always surrounded by his friends and Kakashi didn't really have any connection to him so stopping him randomly at school with his gang had been out of the question. And so Kakashi might have done a little stalking to see when would be the best time to approach the teen. Learning that Naruto always went home alone at the end of the day gave him the perfect opportunity and so he'd driven to Suna station and put his plan into motion.
But the more he had talked to the boy the more he wanted to know. He'd looked forward to meeting him at the train station, it had become his favorite part of the day, and when the boy had stopped showing up he felt like he had lost an important person all over again, and he had lost too many people in his lifetime to want to experience that pain ever again. Especially not with Naruto. He was never going to lose Naruto after this. Never again.
"I guess he has." Kakashi admitted to himself as he turned of the lights and locked his office. He made his way to the parking lot near the sport facilities and got on his motorcycle. Putting his helmet and gloves on as he kicked the stand out of the way. Before he took off he pushed the bandanna up from his face, one red eye briefly visible before he snapped the dark eye-shield back in place and sped off down the street, mind filled with the image of a blond teenager moving gracefully through fighting techniques.
Oh yes, it was much better having him in the club than meeting him at the station every day.

When Naruto got home he was met outside the house by a somewhat harassed looking Genma who came running past him. His older dad stopped dead two steps behind him and turned around.
"Iruka's a bit pissed off at you right now. Just thought I'd give you the heads up before you go in there." He blurted out in a hurry. "Just in case he threatens to disown you just remember that you'll always be my son and I love you. Don't bother coming to the center tonight and just take care of Iruka." He called over his shoulder as he ran towards the youth center. It was only about a 15 minute walk from their house to the center and since it was a similar distance to the grade school Iruka worked at they'd never bought a car. They could get everything they needed within a walking distance and used the train for anything else.
Naruto stood in the front yard dazed for a moment before he looked back towards the house. Iruka pissed off at him, even if it was only slightly, was never a good thing. Just the sound of Naruto's name being all but growled out by an angry Iruka was enough for him to want to confess to every minor little thing he might have possibly done, or even thought about doing, for the past month. Maybe even his whole life. As it was Naruto couldn't remember anything he might have possibly done to piss off Iruka at all recently so it was with a hint of curiosity that Naruto cautiously stepped into the eerily quiet house. Not wanting his somewhat more temperamental dad to jump out on him when he least expected he decided to just face it right away and called out for the guy.
"Iruka?" He yelled hesitantly.
"In here!" Came the somewhat strained voice of his guardian from the living room to his left.
Naruto put his schoolbag down on the stairs opposite the front door and made his way across the spacious hall and into the living room. He was stopped dead in his tracks by a crutch poking him in the chest.
"What have I told you about responsibility young man!" Came the, oh yes, pissed off voice of his father. Naruto looked from the crutch to the tanned face of his father, that looked like he was in pain, and then finally down to the mans feet, one of which was covered by a thick cast reaching all the way up to his hip, his toes all that could be seen of his foot.
"What the hell happened?" Naruto asked worriedly.
"Oh Konohamaru was just dying to show me this new technique he'd just learned during practice today. Something that you had taught him recently." This was emphasized by another poked in the chest by the crutch. "Needles to say he screwed it up and I ended up with a trip to the hospital. Now where on earth did all the things I taught you go? I thought I raised you to be a responsible kid not someone who recklessly teaches children something they can't handle, putting themselves and others in danger."
Naruto looked down at his feet guiltily while he rubbed the back of his head.
"I'm really sorry." He said to his dad.
"You better be, and to make it up to me you're taking over the martial arts lessons for the kids. I know you're busy with school and club activities of your own during the week so I'm moving all my classes on to the weekend." Iruka said as he moved over to the couch and sat down with a painful wince.
Naruto groaned. This pretty much meant his weekends for who knew how long were shot. Iruka didn't have that many classes but it would be at least 5 or so hours all in all spent with snotty little kids and rebellious teenagers.
"Don't worry about it too much." Iruka said tiredly from the couch. "Genma was going to find someone to cover the classes so all you'll really be doing is helping out."
Naruto sat down and eyed his fathers cast. He hated nothing more than seeing people close to him hurt.
After his parents had... died... and before Iruka took him in he'd been sent between foster families and orphanages a lot, not really being wanted anywhere, so the shock he had received had never healed properly. He'd gotten a lot better since he was a child, then he would have frozen up even at the smallest scrape Iruka or Genma got. Iruka had once told him of a time when he'd been playing over at Kiba's and the other boy had fallen on his bike resulting in a scraped knee, palms and a cut on his forehead, and yet it had been Kiba who carried home a hysterically crying Naruto.
Naruto was reminded of his episode earlier that day and he shuddered slightly. He really hoped he was right and it would only be a one time thing. He'd been mostly fine for years now and he wanted to keep it that way.
Iruka noticed his son's uneasiness and petted his shoulder lovingly. "It's nothing to worry about, the break wasn't really that bad and I should be back on my feet pretty soon. I just won't be able to teach martial arts for a while." He said reassuringly.
Naruto smiled at the older man. "That's good to hear. I'm gonna grab dinner now and then head over to Kiba's, we're gonna do homework together. Just call me if you need anything and I'll be right over." He said as he walked out into the hall again.
He'd lied about his plans with Kiba. He just didn't want his father to notice his hands shaking like they did.
