A while ago...
Kakashi burst into Jiraiya's house and yelled, "Jiraiya! I need your help! Now!"
"Hnn?" Jiraiya raised an eyebrow lazily... oh great.. just when the dream was getting to the really good part...
"Jiraiya!"
"Okay I'm awake! No need to shout in my ear."
Kakashi huffed around impatiently while Jiraiya gave a lazy yawn. "Okay so what is so important that the great Kakashi cannot handle for himself?"
"It's Iruka! I was watching him from outside when I saw the title of the essay he's writing. It's about why he should not fall in love with me!" Kakashi groaned... "I need your help. I need to borrow your writing skills and write a counter argument to that before Iruka convinces himself that I'm no good for him."
"Hm..." Jiraiya scratched his chin thoughtfully. "And why should I do that? What good will it be for me? I won't loan out my services for free."
"Aww, come on, can't you see a man is desperate here? If I don't do something I will lose Iruka forever!"
"What if you have something I want?"
"What? If it doesn't harm me or anyone else I will give it to you."
"All of your surf babe posters!" Jiraiya said gleefully.
"No! You can't mean to take all of them...ahh... whatever... you can have them, but I want the essay written ASAP!"
"No problem" Jiraiya grinned. "This will only take a little while."
An argumentative essay on why Iruka should and will fall in love with me – Kakashi
Hatake Kakashi is a powerful shinobi of great potential. Young, strong and handsome, he is definitely the most eligible bachelor in Konoha.
Although Kakashi is rarely on time, he always have very good reasons for his tardiness. This is because our jounin here has big eyes (make that a big eye) that is always looking for opportunities to help others with his big heart. In the mornings before training with his team commences, you can see him dashing around from street to street, helping grannies with their groceries and rescuing lost cats from trees. His inability to turn away anyone in need is the reason why he is always late for his appointments.
Many people discredit Kakashi because he reads the so-called unsavory Icha Icha Paradisu. However they fail to realize that he is actually analyzing the content of the book to ascertain if it is suited to be published within the walls of Konoha. He is actually sacrificing his reputation in order to ensure that the rich literature of Konoha does not get polluted by genuinely unsavory reading materials. So far, Kakashi has found the book highly entertaining and feels that it has the potential to be used as an educational tool in schools (perhaps as part of sex education).
Kakashi wears a mask because he is just too gorgeous for his own good. Were he to show his face and walk around Konoha, he would be constantly mobbed by an entire gang of male and female admirers. Therefore, to prevent social unrest, quarrels and fights that may erupt from his fans, he has decided to sacrifice comfort and don a mask to hide his stunning face. Besides being good-looking, Kakashi is also fantastically good in bed, life with this jounin will be passionate, pleasurable and a whole lot of fun.
Kakashi also happens to be one of the most powerful jounins in Konoha. Not only has he inherited his ancestors' talents, but he has also mastered the powerful chidori. Intelligent and quick witted, he had been on numerous missions and is a huge asset to Konoha. With a strong warrior by your side, one is guaranteed to feel protected and secure.
"Hey! I'm not done yet!" Jiraiya yelled as Kakashi snatched the paper from under his nose...
"Forget it, I've decided I want to finish up the essay myself." Kakashi rolled up the essy and ran off.
"Right... But you still have to give me all your posters as payment!" Jiraiya called after the retreating figure.
Continuation of the essay
Despite all his strength, Kakashi desperately needs someone who can bring some order and normalcy in his life. Prone to bouts of depression and having a habit of talking to stones, Kakashi needs someone to constantly remind him not to live in the past and that talking to stones is a bad idea. Having lived through much bloodshed and risk in his life, Kakashi needs someone who can show him that there is still hope and life in this world.
And perhaps the best reason why Iruka should fall in love with Kakashi is because this jounin has already fallen hopelessly in love with Iruka. Kakashi has a major crush on Iruka, he loves the sexy brown hair, he loves the bright pink blush, he loves the way Iruka cares for each and every one of his students. But most of all, he loves the way Iruka takes joy in life. And Kakashi wants to know what it is like to live, happy and free like Iruka.
Kakashi wants to make Iruka smile, he wants to make Iruka laugh, he wants to be the one to light up Iruka's eyes. He wants to love Iruka fully and freely and he wants Iruka to love him back. He wants to take care of Iruka and protect the teacher from harm. Kakashi wants to give himself to Iruka and let Iruka take care of him. Because life is so short and unpredictable, and Kakashi wants to do all these before it is too late.
And because Kakashi knows that even if Iruka doesn't love him back, he will love the chuunin until the day he die.
Much later...
"You didn't write the essay yourself." Iruka mumbled sleepily into Kakashi's ear as he curled up closer to the jounin.
"No, I didn't. Not the entire thing anyway." Kakashi shrugged. "But does it matter?"
"No, it doesn't. I just like the parts you wrote much better than the parts Jiraiya wrote." Iruka sighed softly as Kakashi pulled him close.
"Yeah... me too." Kakashi smiled and kissed Iruka's forehead.
As Iruka drifted off into a dreamless sleep, he realized that deep down inside, he had always known he will fall in love with this jounin. Maybe it had started from the very first day he laid his eyes on that mysterious silver haired boy in the school playground...
That's all! Thank you very much for reading!
