CHAPTER 7 Shikamaru didn't even want o think what was wrong with Iruka. He had enough of troublesome stuff on his head as it was but… he was worried. His friend acted weird. And he practically didn't eat! Was he sick or worried over something? What was wrong? What was he hiding? Shika needed to know. Whatever it was it could compromise their mission and Shikamaru wouldn't let that happen. He needed to take his nephew away from Germany and no one and nothing could stop him. He needed to force Iruka to have a drink with him. Then he would ask him some questions. Iruka didn't want to get drunk. He was too vulnerable like that and…. He didn't want to admit t anything weird to Shika. That was the thing that even his friend would probably disapprove. And Iruka knew that Shika would ask… troublesome questions. Shika was stubborn. "OK, listen… I'll go to have drinks with you, but only if you do something for me." "What is it, Iruka?" "You're friends with Cpt. Azuma, right? He's your sister's husband, isn't he?" "Yea…" What was that all about now?... troublesome… "He's friends with General Hatake. I know that this bastard keeps my photograph in his office to play darts… Ask him to take it." "What the fuck is wrong with you, Iruka? Have you lost your mind?" "Why? It's just a joke…" "A joke? I know you were a prankster as a kid but you're not in school anymore! He's a general and the head of Gestapo! You don't make jokes on the person who can squash you like a bug and not even notice!" "He's not that bad…" Iruka didn't know that Shikamaru's eyes could become that wide. "Not that bad, huh? Iruka… I will only say it once because… I don't want to patronize you or anything. You're older and higher in ranks but… PLEASE, don't piss off the General only because you find it mildly amusing. We're here with a purpose, and an important one! And I want to live it through." "Don't worry, Shika. I know what I'm doing." … After the strategy meeting Kakashi brought Iruka the report himself. It was strange, stressing and… exciting. Iruka was suspicious and didn't take his eyes of Kakashi. That man was a devil! He never came to the Abwehr HQ without any ulterior motives. He entered Iruka's office not waiting for invitation, sat shamelessly on top of Iruka's desk and handed him the manila folder. Iruka didn't make any move to take it from him. He just looked at him challengingly. "What is that, General?" "This, Major, is a report from today's strategy meeting." "Are you trying to eke out working as a courier? Is General's pay that shabby?" Kakashi chuckled and simply dropped the file onto the desk. If it were anyone else talking to him like that they would be dead already, but he couldn't help but be intrigued with Iruka's blatant show of disrespect. "No, actually, I was going to have a dinner and brought you this on my way to the restaurant. How about you join me? My treat – just to show you I can afford it." "Aren't you mistaking me for a woman again, General?" "I'm sure I'm not, Major. All I want is to… be friends." "Right…" Iruka didn't believe him and as much as he would love to go, he already promised Shikamaru to go out with him. "SO, can I pick you up in… let's say two hours?" "No, general. I already agreed to go out with my friend for drinks, but thank you for your invitation." "Maybe some other time, then, Major?" "Maybe…" What was he up to? It slightly scared Iruka that he didn't know what Kakashi wanted from him. And he was SURE that Kakashi DID want something. He wouldn't be here otherwise. Iruka needed to be careful. General's friendly behavior was highly suspicious and surely indicated something bad. Or at least Iruka tried to convince himself that it did because Kakashi's presence so close… sitting in this casual position on his desk… was highly distracting. Iruka leaned back in his chair watched Kakashi from under his long eyelashes. He had no idea how tempting and seductive he was acting. Kakashi licked his lips and unconsciously leaned forward closer to the Major. The General looked so handsome and powerful. It made Iruka shiver just to look at him. He didn't know what to say, he could only stare. "So, Major, who's that… friend… you're going out with, if I may know?" "Always spying on others… Professional bias, or something, General Hatake?" "I just want to know who to blame." "Then blame me." "Just tell me WHO?!" Kakashi's angry tone surprised Iruka. He forgot that this teasing and seemingly friendly chit chat was just a cover for something else… He shouldn't let his guard down! "Lieutenant Shikamaru Nara from the deciphering squad." "Ach, yes… Lieut. Nara… As brilliant as lazy… You owe him a lot, Major. He was the reason I heroically saved you from Orochimaru's clutches." Iruka frowned disgusted by the awful memory and Kakashi almost regretted bringing this up. "Yes, your heroism benefited you too quite well, but I'm still grateful for your help nevertheless." Iruka was looking into Kakashi's eye and the poor general couldn't resist the force that was pulling him closer and closer. He supported his upper body on one arm on Iruka's desk crumpling some documents in the process and leaned even more toward the Major. "I never really had a chance to say it, but… Thank you for saving me… General." Then Kakashi once again recalled in his head the vision of Iruka with his wet hair loose… lips and eyes opened wide… and his hands started to sweat, heart flutter. And then his hand slid over the documents. Kakashi fell face forward directly at the shocked Iruka. He quickly supported himself on Iruka's chair but his face still managed to burry itself in Iruka's neck for a moment catching a whiff of smell that almost made him dizzy. Iruka also tried to catch him and to help him sit back up. That involved Iruka's hands touching Kakashi's shoulders and arms. They both blushed. The moment was awkward and very, very weird. "Ok, that was embarrassing… I'm sorry, Major. My hand slipped over the paper." "It's quite alright." Iruka was still looking at him with a half lid eyes. Kakashi's expression was one he would keep in his memory forever. The dangerous General looked embarrassed, scared and confused. It was impossibly cute. Iruka wanted to touch him. "You have some ink on your face…" "Really?" Kakashi was still unnecessarily close. Iruka sat straighter and put his elbows on the desk, getting even closer. There was nothing at all on Kakashi's face but Iruka's right thumb was almost always grimy ink from his fountain pen. "Yes… on your cheek…" Kakashi quickly rubbed his cheek trying to get rid of the embarrassing proof of his clumsiness and distraction but Iruka stopped his hand with his own. "Not here." He slowly pulled Kakashi's hand away and replaced it with his own. It was like time had stopped and the world disappeared. There was only Iruka and his fingers gently placed over Kakashi's reddening cheek. Then the tanned thumb started to rub slowly and very gently over Kakashi's cheek. "Here…" – whispered lecherous mouth, mere inches away from General's own. Then, like it was not enough of shocking events Iruka smiled and winked. Kakashi quickly straightened up and stood up from the desk. His body's reactions to the other soldier's closeness were… unforgivable and unacceptable! It was time to leave and cool off. "Thank you, Major. I'll take my leave now… See you around." "Goodbye General." Iruka walked him to the door with his eyes. This was crazy… He needed to stop this… or he would get himself killed… Kakashi all but run out of the building passing the very surprised Lieut. Nara. Was it just his imagination or was the decipher specialist staring weirdly at his face. Was he that strongly flushed? He jumped out into the street breathing like he ran a marathon. What the fuck? He touched his cheek. It was still burning from the other man's touch. Why did he like it so much…. He couldn't be like that…. so why? It was crazy… He didn't like Iruka that way. He liked women… But he was never really interested in one… never! He needed to calm down and think logically. He was surely just intrigued with the man, because Iruka seemed to be an interesting type. Surely after getting to know him better he would realize how normal and boring the man was and… He would get over it. If not… he would simply kill Iruka, like he had planned to do earlier. He walked toward his HQ and met Asuma, who looked like he was just leaving Kakashi's office. He didn't even question his friend about his presence in HIS office. He was so distracted that he didn't even pay attention to the fact that Cpt. Sarutobi was desperately trying to hide some paper in his jacket pocket. Kakasi simply greeted him and tried to get past him but the bearded man stopped him. "What the fuck did you do to your face, Kakashi?" "What?" "What's wrong with you?" Asuma was looking at him like he grew a second head. What was HIS problem anyway? "Nothing!" Kakashi pushed Asuma's hand away and disappeared in his office. With a sure stride he walked up to the wall where the picture of Iruka had been hanging. He liked to do it right after entering the room but…. It wasn't there. It was gone! Iruka's picture was gone! He almost started to scream for alarm when it clicked. Asuma was here… of course… But why would he do something like that? Damn it! He angrily walked up to the small basin with cold water to wash the tiredness and confusion from his handsome face when he saw it. In the mirror above the basin was on his left cheek a huge black question mark seemed to represent his state of mind at the moment… …What the fuck? …. They were sitting at the quiet table with their drinks for almost an hour already, but Shikamaru still didn't ask his questions. He was too busy scolding Iruka for painting a question mark on the General's cheek. "Look, Shika, I'm really sorry, ok? I won't do anything like that again. Really… It was just a joke… And I'm almost sure he will take it like a man…" "You're playing with fire Iruka, I hope you won't get burned…" "Don't worry, Shika… He won't shoot me for dirtying his face. It was JUST a joke!" "Hi guys!" Asuma was approaching their table. "I didn't expect to see you two here." "Hi, Asuma! Will you join us?" Shikamaru greeted him with a rare smile on his mostly indifferent face. "Just for a moment. I'm here with Genma, I mean Lieut. Shiranui. Major Umino, I have something for you." Asuma pulled Iruka's picture from his leather pilot jacket and handed it to confused Iruka. "Wow! You really did it, Captain! Thank you.. both of you." Asuma laughed. "It's alright. It was my pleasure. Of course it would be much bigger pleasure if I could see his face, but it was still fun! Why are you guys fighting so much?" Iruka chuckled. "We're not fighting. It's just… " Shikamaru interrupted. "He just tries to get himself killed. Asuma, I talked to Kurenai. Something big is coming and when it does…" „Not here, Shika… GENMA! Come here, join us!" Asuma was nervously looking around but didn't see anyone but Genma. He hoped no one heard what Shikamaru said. "Hey guys! Major Umino, what a surprise! Let's drink a bruderschaft, shall we?" Asuma joined the offer, so they all ordered shots for Asuma, Genma and Iruka to proceed with the ceremony. Asuma was first, then Lieutenant Shiranui. Just as Genma pressed his lips firmly to Iruka's cheek they heard a sound of someone clearing his throat. Iruka moved away from he other man but Genma's hand stayed on his shoulder. They looked at the General Hatake who looked like he was about kill them all. He stood there with his legs apart, holding a horsewhip behind his back in both hands. "Good evening, Major. Am I interrupting something?" "General Hatake… No, not at all…" Iruka flushed and pushed Genma's hand from his shoulder. "Asuma, I called your wife and she told me you're here… Although I didn't expect to see that I'm missing a party." "Easy, Kakashi. We met here accidentally! Sit down and drink with us. Why were you looking for me?" "Something has been missing from my office and I was wondering who would be so bold or stupid to steal from me. Now as I look at the table I think I already know." He glared at the picture of Iruka still laying in the middle of the table among some glasses and bottles of alcohol. Then he moved his eyes to Iruka. "I apologize for stealing from you General, but it was out of pure curiosity. I just wanted to see how many holes have you left in my face thus far and I must say I was shocked to see just one…" "And I'm shocked to see that a person I considered my friend is taking YOUR side in this conflict." "What conflict, General? I thought we were going to bury the hatchet…" "Yes…" Kakashi couldn't help but look at Iruka's lips when he spoke and he found it very distracting. "…yes, what I actually meant to say was 'game'… He takes your side in our… little game." "I'm sure you're wrong General. Asuma merely wanted to do a favor to his wife's brother." Kakashi looked surprised. "Right… So you're Kurenai's brother, Lieutenant?" "Step brother actually, but yes." Shikamaru looked tensed. He didn't want this man around when they were drinking. "C'mon Kakashi, sit and drink with us, man!" Ganma slapped Kakashi's shoulder but the General glared at him viciously. Somehow the view that met his eyes when he came in made his blood boil. "Yea, Kakashi, sit down." Asuma tried his best to save the day, but Kakashi didn't stop glaring. "Don't make us beg, General…" Kakashi's head instantly turned to the voice that made him shiver. Why was Iruka asking him to stay? Could it be that he actually liked to spend time with Kakashi? After some thought Kakashi had to admit that Iruka's pranks were harmless and funny. It was obvious that he meant no harm and only wanted to tease the Gestapo General. It intrigued Kakashi to no end. He really wanted to get to know this man better and that seemed like a perfect opportunity so he smirked and pulled a chair from another table to place it between Iruka and Genma. "If Major Umino insists so much on my presence I can't deny now, can I?…" He sat down and locked his eye with Iruka's. "But I'm surprised since he ditched me when I invited him out." "As I said, I've already promised Shika to go out with him, but I think it's a great coincidence. Since we all met here anyway I'm able to kill two birds with one stone." Iruka smiled at Kakashi, who answered with a smile of his own, shocking Asuma and Genma. "I'd rather you refrained from killing me just yet, Major." "I can only promise to try, General, since we both know that you tend to get on my nerves quite easily." Their eyes never strayed from each other. Their behavior as well as everything they said made other occupants of the table tense. They couldn't tell if the two officers were serious or just joking. Were they in the middle of some kind of a fight, under the cover of semi-courteous conversation or maybe they were threatening each other with death right in front of everybody's eyes? It was confusing because whatever it really was it looked almost like some kind of weird flirting and that would be just too much... "Well, as far as I remember I wasn't the one finger-painting on your face." "No, of course, you were just the one sending on me seven inspections in two weeks." "You stole my photo…" Kakashi narrowed his eyes but he wasn't serious in the slightest and he was pretty sure Iruka knew that while others didn't. "You stole my research." Iruka narrowed his own shiny pools of chocolate. "They were fake!" Kakashi couldn't wait to point THAT out. Iruka apparently had no idea how strongly it pissed him off back then. "You still took it without permission. If you had a decency to ask I would've told you!" Now Iruka sounded like a teacher… "No, you wouldn't." And Kakashi like a petulant child. Iruka just shrugged and nonchalantly took a sip of his drink. "But you can't prove it." Another point for the Abvehr's Major. Kakashi was losing their battles of wits and strangely he didn't mind. He simply enjoyed being a center of Iruka's attention for a moment. "Iruka!" Shikamaru's voice was trembling. "Don't interrupt them, dude. They're brilliant! I've never seen Kakashi cornered before! Thant's the funniest thing I've seen in weeks!" "Shut up, Genma!" Shika was still not amused. Asuma simply watched. He knew why Shika was so tense but he also perfectly understood Genma's reaction (and he completely empathized with it!) But it was a very curious thing that Kakashi looked as amused as them or even more. It looked like the General was having fun being rubbished by the Abwehr's chief. What was the Copy Cat up to this time? Asuma would watch and listen carefully until he learned Kakashi's motives. TBC
