When Iruka walked into the mission office the next day, he was whistling. Izumo, Kotetsu and Genma stared at him, all three jaws hanging down. He grinned at them. "Beautiful day, isn't it?"
Kotetsu looked out the window at the pouring rain and gray skies. "Uh…"
"I knew you'd agree." He passed the three of them up to get his tea. When he came back out a few minutes later, they were still standing, open mouthed, staring at him. "Gen, you're going to catch a fly that way," he said with a grin.
The senbon-chewer's mouth snapped closed, Izumo snickered and Kotetsu blurted, "did you get laid?"
Iruka simply chuckled in answer and settled in at his desk. He glanced over the open missions, noting that there were very few left to give out. Which meant that they'd be getting the return reports soon instead.
The silence in the room was deafening as the other three shinobi tried to figure out what put Iruka in such a good mood. It was true he usually came back from Valentine's Day calmer and not quite ready to kill, but he was never whistling, never this happy. Izumo punched Kotetsu, who stopped ogling and they went back to their own desks, but Genma continued to stare.
Iruka sighed and turned to him. "Is there something you need?"
Genma just blinked and glanced at the other two who were very studiously avoiding looked at him. "Uh, no. No. Nothing. Um, yes, beautiful day."
"It is, isn't it?" Iruka said and went back to his paperwork. He went over the few mission reports that had already been turned in but not checked and just as he was about to finish them, the door opened.
One of the new genin teams came in, dripping wet. Neji Hyuuga herded them to the side and grabbed the report form and a pen. When one of the boys on his team started whining, he turned and glared in silence and the boy shut up. Iruka almost felt sorry for him. He'd always been a bit of a whiner, which is why he almost felt sorry for him. He was a little surprised to see the Hyuuga as a team leader, but figured after all he'd done through the invasion and the war, he was probably more than qualified.
He finished writing things out and brought the report up to the counter, hesitating very briefly before handing it to Iruka. The entire room seemed to pause and hold their breath as the report was passed across the desk. Iruka picked it up and looked it over, then smiled brightly up at the younger man. "Good work, thank you very much for your help today!" He stamped the report and laid it in the completed box.
Seven sets of eyes stared and Iruka looked from one person to the next with raised eyebrows. "Is something wrong?"
"No."
"Of course not."
"Not at all"
"Thank you." Neji said, lavender eyes wide and turned back to his team. "Let's go," he said, motioning to the door.
"Bye, Iruka-sensei!" Three genin called all of which who seemed more anxious to be out in the rain then in the room with them.
Iruka shook his head. He knew he was a little cheerier than he normally might be for the day after that horrid holiday, but he didn't think he was that different.
He didn't have a lot of time to mull it over because the teams started trickling in then, anxious to have their missions finished and get out of the rain. He went over the reports, pointed out in what he thought was a reasonable manner when they needed to be corrected and only outright rejected a few. Everyone approached him as if he were dynamite and he had to bite the inside of his cheek to keep from laughing. Even so he was still a little confused when there was a lull and the other three were still very quiet.
"What is wrong?" He finally asked again.
"Nothing," Kotetsu said.
"Um, everything's fine," Izumo muttered, refusing to look at him.
"Forget it." Iruka said, sighing again, then really did forget it when the door opened again and Kakashi came in. If the other three were shocked by his good mood up to that point, they were completely stunned when they saw his reaction to the copy nin. "Hi," he said, his smile wide, color staining his cheeks.
They looked from Iruka to Kakashi and saw the happy curve of the visible eye and the bit of blush above the mask and six eyebrows went up. He approached Iruka's counter and leaned on it. "Hi. How's the day so far?"
"Relatively tame for once. Have you gotten lost yet?"
Kakashi chuckled. "Just did. I think they'll understand that I didn't stay long. It's… a little wet out there. "
"Yes, I noticed."
"So, when do I get you for dinner?" Kakashi asked and both of them ignored the three gasps they heard at the question.
"I'll take a break at five."
"Ramen?" Kakashi asked and Iruka grinned.
"Did you really have to ask that?"
The copy nin laughed. "No, I guess not. Okay, well, I'll let you get back to work. Try not to kill anyone today."
Iruka grinned. "I'm not feeling remotely murderous for some reason."
That got him another laugh. Then to his complete surprise, Kakashi bent toward him and placed a kiss on him through the mask. "I love you," he whispered into the teacher's ear.
"I love you," he whispered back, then stood up. "I'll see you at five."
"Okay." He turned toward the door and threw a wave over his shoulder. "Bye!"
Iruka grinned at the other three. "Yes, we're together. Yes, he's the reason I'm in a good mood today. And that's all the rumor mill is getting, Shuranui Genma. Now, don't we have work to do?"
The other three scrambled back to their paperwork.
Tanaka-san grinned at the two in front of her. "I'm so glad to welcome you back! It's not the holiday, so what is the special occasion?"
"Oh, just some quiet time. I've been gone for a while." Kakashi said, smoothly.
The clerk nodded. "Well, that's certainly a good reason to celebrate and we're glad you've chosen to do so with us."
"Well, we still owe you for the… um… Valentine's Day… thing." The copy nin blushed, but the clerk just laughed.
"It's quite alright. I'm glad things worked out!" She checked the book again, then turned around and pulled a key off of the board behind her. "Here you go. Room 7. Shall I send in dinner?"
"Please. Sake and the oils?"
"Of course. Enjoy!" The clerk beamed and the two men turned toward the hallway.
Kakashi was nervous again, just like he'd been the first time he'd been here with Iruka. He shouldn't be, he had a feeling he knew how the night would go, but he couldn't seem to help it. They showered together and the "quick" turned into "long and slow" but they finally managed to leave the bathroom.
They went out to the spring, Iruka insisting that they get some use out of it because if all they were going to do was stay in bed, they could have done that at one of their apartments. Kakashi rolled his eyes, but didn't argue it.
It was August fifteenth. Six months since that incredible night and Kakashi had found himself a little antsy lately. Well, maybe that wasn't quite right, but he'd found himself simply wanting more. His last mission, which had lasted near a month and took him near a port city had given him an idea.
They settled into the water, Iruka once more on Kakashi's lap. He spent a lot of time there, at least right after the longer missions one of them went on. And that was just fine for both of them. When they'd been apart for a while, all they wanted to do was touch. Reassure themselves and each other that they were there and whole and okay.
Iruka himself had been gone on a fairly long mission earlier in the summer and Kakashi had found himself going more than a little insane. He'd certainly gained a new respect for what Iruka went through when he was gone. And an even greater appreciation for reunion sex.
They spent their time in the water kissing and touching. Relearning the feel of the other person, their textures and tastes. They took their time, going slowly, drawing it out. They knew that dinner would interrupt them and so they weren't surprised when the knock came a short while later.
Iruka moved over to the natural bench and Kakashi climbed out of the spring. He was glad when the younger man closed his eyes and rested his head against the side so he could take care of something quickly. He opened the door and stepped aside for the server to set out their food. He tipped him and waved as he left. "Ruka. Come eat, baby."
Iruka opened his eyes and raised an eyebrow. "Baby?" His lips twitched in amusement.
"What? I can't use a term of endearment?" He feigned hurt.
Iruka laughed. "I just haven't heard you use it before."
Kakashi rolled eyes. "Come on, let's eat. I'm hungry." He turned to the table and swallowed hard, working to calm his nervousness as he sat down.
Iruka took his spot, this time right next to Kakashi instead of across from him as they'd been the last time they were there. They need to be close still very fresh. He settled down on his cushion, then stopped dead and stared.
He glanced from his plate up to his lover and back to his plate again. He swallowed hard and reached out with a shaking hand. He lifted the item up and glanced once more at Kakashi, paying attention to the way he bit his bottom lip, the fact that his sharingan was open. Iruka swallowed around his suddenly dry throat and opened the box slowly, already knowing what was inside.
A pair of simple gold wedding bands. "Kashi?" He was having trouble breathing.
"Marry me, Ruka."
Iruka stopped breathing all of a sudden. He stared for another moment at the rings, then looked up at the other man. Marry. Marriage. He was having a very hard time wrapping his mind around this.
He'd known something was up. He'd thought maybe he'd want them to move in together or something. He'd known when the copy nin had suggested this that there was more to it than a simple reunion and relaxation. He touched one of the bands with the tip of his finger.
He swallowed around the lump in his throat. Why the hell not? What was he afraid of? But as soon as the question formed in his mind, he knew the answer to that. But would the grief be any different, any worse just because he had a wedding ring on? No, it wouldn't. Losing him would damned near kill him no matter what jewelry he wore. He looked up at his lover again. "Yes."
Kakashi's face split into a huge grin and pulled him in for a kiss. When they broke apart, he said, "when I was on my mission, I heard about a tradition that's kind of common down there. When they get engaged, instead of a specific engagement ring or something, they wear their wedding bands on the right hand. And then when they actually get married…"
"They move them over. I think I read about that." Kakashi took the box with the rings in it from Iruka and took one of them out. He glanced up at his lover, who gave him his right hand. The younger man couldn't miss the slight tremor he felt as the copy nin slipped the ring onto his finger. When it was in place, Kakashi lifted his hand and placed a soft kiss on his finger.
Iruka took the other one out and pushed it onto the other man's finger, staring at it a moment. "Wow, we're… holy…" he shook his head, still floored, "why is it that I have so much trouble talking when things like this happen?"
Kakashi shook his head. "I have no idea, Mr. Hatake."
Iruka raised an eyebrow. "Who says I'm taking your name? Maybe you should take mine?"
Kakashi's lips twitched. "Uh oh. Maybe we'll just have to forget about it."
"The hell we are. You're committed now."
"Yes, maybe I should be committed."
Iruka fought very hard to keep a straight face, but he lost it after only a few seconds. Kakashi joined him after trying to look hurt, which only made his lover laugh harder. When they finally calmed down, Iruka's smile faded. "I'll do it. I'll take your name. I don't care. My mom and dad know that I love them."
"Hell, keep your name, I don't care, either. As long as you're married to me."
"Well, that will definitely happen." Iruka said, chuckling. He leaned over and their lips met again in a long slow kiss, sealing their new promises.
"So," Kakashi said as they sat up and turned to their food, "is it safe to say you don't hate Valentine's Day anymore?"
Iruka shook his head. "No, I think it's a safe bet that it's not the worst day of the year anymore."
"Really? What is?" Kakashi asked as he poured sake for each of them.
"Well, I could get really sappy and say something like, 'any day you're not home' but it's really more like any day I'm stuck on desk duty with the new lovebirds."
Kakashi raised his eyebrow. "Lovebirds?"
"Ko and Zumo. They finally figured out that there's more than friendship between them."
Kakashi winced. "Oh."
"Yeah, they try really hard, they do. But they're constantly looking at each other, blushing like mad. Until just yesterday when I told them to go back to the damned supply room and get it out of their system so they'd actually get work done."
"You didn't." Kakashi raised his eyebrows.
Iruka nodded. "I did. And I was very glad for the three doors between the main room and the supply room. And for the fact that the main room was empty. I could still hear sounds all the way out at the desk." He blushed a little at the memory.
Kakashi blinked. "Wow. We're not even that loud."
Iruka laughed. "Ha! I bet my neighbors wouldn't agree."
Kakashi snickered. "Maybe not." He picked up his sake cup and found himself staring at his ring.
Iruka blushed, his own attention drawn to the one on his finger. He'd never thought he'd get married. He cleared his throat. "So, what kind of wedding do you think we can get away with?"
"I'd marry you in the Hokage's office, if I thought we could manage it."
Iruka blinked. "Why couldn't we? And for the record, that sounds good to me, too."
Kakashi shrugged. "Well, I'm just afraid our friends would find a way to sabotage our honeymoon or our new home or something to get back at us for not letting them attend."
Iruka frowned. "I guess you're right. Damn. Well, let's see what we can get away with. Maybe if I draft Kurenai to help, she can organize something nice without it being overdone. She seems to have a talent for that kind of thing. We'll insist on a simple reception at the Kunai or something, though. Just drinks and cake. I am not putting up with a formal dinner." Iruka shuddered.
Kakashi laughed. "I never thought I'd be the one more interested in the wedding than you."
"Did you want more?" Iruka asked with a raised eyebrow.
Kakashi shook his head. "I think that'll be fine. Appropriate for the shinobi, anyway."
They talked wedding plans over dinner, both of them occasionally distracted by their rings. When the sushi was gone, the reunion started for real and both men got lost in each other for the rest of the night.
The Hatake-Umino wedding was the only topic of discussion for the next month. The fact that the great Copy Ninja and the most popular teacher at the academy were getting married was nothing short of a miracle. Not because they were both men, that had already happened when Genma and Raido had tied the knot the year before.
No, no, the ever aloof, perverted, lazy shinobi was marrying a schoolteacher. One who had given him hell for years about reading his porn in public - though no one would admit to the fact that they couldn't remember the last time they'd seen him with one in his hand. No, the person he was marrying was none other than the very one who chewed him up and spit him out in front of the chuunin exam committee.
They'd managed to convince Kurenai to keep it all very simple. They held the ceremony at the temple, and Genma stood with Iruka and Yamato stood with Kakashi as they jokingly promised not to kill each other. After the laughter died down, they promised instead they would love, honor and cherish each other for as long as they lived. That last line hung heavy in the air for a moment over the assembled crowd because there was always the thought that that might not be very long at all. A few furtive glances were sent Kurenai's way, but she sat with dry eyes, Asumaru in her lap, her attention fixed on the couple in front.
Their rings were then moved to the other hand, Kakashi pulled his mask down in front of the entire roomful of people and kissed his new husband. Then, to make it even more shocking, he'd left it down when they turned and left the temple. It took the entire assembly sat in stunned silence for a solid two minutes before it broke out in deafening noise and they jumped up to follow the couple out.
The reception at the Kunai was typical of any shinobi gathering. The alcohol flowed freely and everyone got more than a little crazy. Cake was cut and passed out. The main couple fed each other, of course making a mess of it and money was changed hands when Kakashi was the one with more cake on his face than his husband.
Shortly after that, the music was turned up. At one point Genma started offering table dances. That wasn't too bad except he was stripping while he did so. He, in fact, got all the way down to his boxers before Raido collected him.
Anko set up in one corner and started playing cards. She cleaned out every one of the younger chuunin who hadn't yet learned of her shark-like card playing skills. Iruka yelled at her over the chuunin but let it go when she split the winnings she got from the jounin who played and should have known better. She had no idea she'd just gotten suckered out of money herself since Iruka had only yelled at her in the first place, knowing she'd pay up to shut him up. He chuckled all the way back to his husband.
Kotetsu and Izumo were walked in on no less than six times in various places, states of undress and sexual positions. Tsunade was one of them and she watched for so long it took Shizune pulling her back out of the broom closet -- where she'd wandered in her drunken state, looking for the bathroom -- before the other two even realized what was going on. Kakashi had caught them the last time and threatened to record their entire sex session and sell tickets to put other people in a genjutsu to watch it if they didn't behave themselves. They'd scrambled to put themselves back together then and managed to be reasonably good for the most part for the rest of the night.
Gai kept trying to challenge Kakashi to different contests until Iruka got between them and told him that he was not risking his honeymoon being messed up. And he could stop trying to challenge his husband or the green beast would deal with him. It was very funny to see the mighty Maito Gai back down from the schoolteacher. He hung his head with a blush and muttered an apology.
Then there were the former students who had to congratulate Iruka. Naruto made a loud and long speech about how he was so strict and mean and scary until Kakashi poked him and asked him if he had anything good to say about his former teacher. The blond had blushed profusely and went on to talk about how nice and sweet he was and how much he took care of him and finally, when he couldn't seem to take a hint to stop, Sakura slapped a hand over his mouth and simply dragged him away.
Tsunade, after way too many bottles of sake tried to make a number of bets on the couple. Including things like how long the marriage would last and how many times they'd have sex on their honeymoon, how long it would be before they ended up killing each other, who was top, and whether or not Kakashi could get Iruka to act out parts of Icha Icha. The betting pools started quickly from there, but no one could figure out how they could verify the one about the number of times they'd have sex on their honeymoon. Especially since both men assured them that they wouldn't tell unless they got a cut of the money.
Kotetsu and Izumo - who were handling the pool - actually considered it and after a few more words of encouragement, the money started rolling in. Iruka and Kakashi laughed because they were fairly certain none of the numbers were going to come close. They'd be gone for a full week and the highest number that appeared by the end of the night was twenty five. Except for one person who wouldn't give their name who listed a thousand. Iruka looked little green at that number and Kakashi just grinned. That spawned more bets over the top and bottom pool.
All in all, though the most disturbing part of the evening was when Ibiki actually got drunk and started trying to dance. A striptease dance. On the bar. He managed to get his shirt off and was lowering his pants when Anko, Kurenai and Yamato managed to get him down off the bar. It was was a major struggle because the scarred man was convinced the song that was playing - "I'm Too Sexy" was really written about him and he just had to dance to it.
The reception finally wound down sometime after midnight. Kakashi and Iruka had already escaped, on their way to a non-disclosed location for their honeymoon with promises to keep track of the number of times they had sex. They also made a deal that they'd answer some of the other questions if they'd be left alone and not followed.
Much, much later, as they sank into the water at the hot springs resort, Kakashi sighed. "Well, Mr. Hatake, I think that was a success."
"Yes, yes, I think it was," Iruka groaned as he stretched his muscles in the hot water. "I think we can feel fairly safe that we've satisfied the natives."
Kakashi laughed. "They do act like that sometimes, don't they?
Iruka laughed. "Yes, they do. Especially Ko and Zumo, good grief, they couldn't get through one night?"
"Really. We weren't even that bad." Kakashi said, then chuckled at the snort of derision from his husband. "I recorded it anyway."
"You didn't!"
"I did. I thought it would be nice blackmail if we needed it sometime. Or, you know, maybe a way to lure them in for a night of perversions." He wagged his eyebrows up and down.
Iruka laughed. "You really are a pervert."
"Yup. And you love it."
"Yes, yes I do." He shook his head. He paused. "You know, they may be fun." He said with a grin and laughed at the look on Kakashi's face.
"You're going to kill me."
Iruka laughed again. "Naw, I want you around for a while yet. Besides, none of the bets for your demise happen on our honeymoon. They all give us at least a month."
"Oh yes, I'd hate to disappoint the betting pools." He shook his head.
Kakashi stared at his wedding ring for a moment, then said, quietly, "well, I think that was probably the best day of the year so far."
"I don't know," Iruka said and Kakashi raised his eyebrows.
"Oh?"
"Yes." Iruka said decisively. "I'm thinking of one other that beats it just a little."
"Which day is that?" Kakashi asked.
"Valentine's Day."
Kakashi blinked at him in surprise. "I know it's not the worst anymore, but the best?"
Iruka nodded. "Yup. It's the day we got together."
Kakashi shook his head. "You've got a point there." He chuckled. "Before you, I would never have thought that."
Iruka grinned. "Me either, but I'm saying it. Valentine's Day was the best day of the year."
