Chewing Gum

xxxx

It was your average day in Konoha village.

Sakura was eyeing up Sasuke, Sasuke was trying to train, and Naruto was bugging the shit out of everyone else, who in turn tuned him out.

But where was Kakashi, the well known leader of this strange bunch formally entitled Team 7?

Why he was sitting up in a tree reading his usual novel, stamped with the words: Adult book 18 and up, on the front in big bold letters.

So why was today different from any other day? Simple, Kakashi was chewing gum.

So now you all go big whoop that's different. But that difference made a big difference in someone else's eyes and certainly changed the eyes of quite a few people in Konoha.

Well, I should say it was your average day until HE showed up.

Oh yes, all of that everyday stuff was still going on.

In the background, Kakashi heard Naruto's usual antics going on and he knew what was happening. And yes, when the sound of hand meeting face or rather when Naruto was slapped was normal. And actually it was predictable. Except for the fact that it was Sasuke who hit him. And a sparring match broke out as usual.

All was going as usual until Iruka walked by with his class. Kakashi could have sworn on his piles and piles of porn that he did a double take. It wasn't as if gum was unusual, just ninjas were instructed to brush their teeth, and gum and all those sugary things that helped your breath smell nice made it impossible for ninjas to sneak around.

So it wasn't sold in and of the Hidden Nin villages, and people were to instruct their children on how it could be their death, even if it tastes good.

Yep, candy was an evil son of a bitch. At least to the ninjas. And, yes, they didn't eat candy at Easter either. It was far to evil to give it to them for even a special occasion.

However, Kakashi was evil and disobeyed almost any rule he could get his hands on.

Besides, a stick of gum wouldn't kill him. He was a really, really powerful jounin. No, that didn't give him the right to do whatever the hell he wanted. But he certainly had the right to eat candy and watch porn as he saw fit.

"How long does this damned gum last is my question…" Kakashi muttered to himself.

For Sasuke, training ended all too soon.

For Naruto, training ended much too late especially since Sasuke had given him an ass kicking today. "It's like he has his period… if he had one…" In two seconds flat he was lying on the ground with a footprint on his face. "Correction, woman in disguise." He said and groaned, peeling himself up off the floor and rushing off to the Ichiraku Ramen House.

As usual, Kakashi grabbed anything left behind because someone always tended to drop something and headed for home.

He hadn't expected to run into him. But he did. He hadn't expected HIM to do such a thing. But he did it and that was that.

"What the hell are you eating?" Iruka said. "If you keep eating you're going to get fat! Ninjas don't get fat, except Choji but dammit Kakashi not you."

"It's just gum Iruka, see…?" In response, he blew a bubble then popped it and kept chewing.

"What kind of exampled are you to kids? We're supposed to be teaching them that candy is evil and um… stuff."

"Seriously Iruka what is with you, you're like so stuck up. Chill out man, you don't need to be so tight and stuff."

"Shut up Kakashi you can't go around like that just… chewing… gum…"

For once in his life Iruka did a daring thing. There are just some things that come over people and they never understand why they do it, like what Iruka had just decided to do. He leaned in and kissed Kakashi, and of course since Kakashi was chewing gum. His mouth was open and Iruka got a nice taste when he slid his tongue in.

So what did Kakashi do? Well first he pulled away. And then…

"I'll never look at straight porn again…" he told Iruka before spitting the gum out on the floor. "You taste sweeter without the gum…" And if he ever thought candy was sweet, Iruka was ten times that.

Fin.

Inu Kaiba: Terribly horrible at fluff. I hope I get reviews.
