Disclaimer: Not mine. Though I would kill to have Kakashi.

Warning: This fic will have lemon in THIS chapter. It's KakaIru. If you don't like, don't read. And also… don't talk to me. You have to give me time to adjust to your alien ways… I can't promise I'll ever cope. You've been warned.

A/N: As seen above the lemon is in this chapter. Hope you guys don't think it's too soon. I was a little hesitant about putting it in this chapter, but it fit really well. Um, depending on what you guys think this maybe the last chapter. If you want a sequel I'll just stop it here, otherwise I'll do one more chappy to wrap everything up. Alright, let's get this started.

"They were just decoys. Pre-genins taught to use henge no jutsu. They were just kids, and we killed them…" Kakashi stood, moving to Iruka and holding him closely as the chuunin wept.

There was no need for the chuunin to explain further. Kakashi understood. He had become a teacher to teach young children how to protect themselves, not only against attacking ninja, but also against anyone who would want to manipulate them the way the children he had encountered were. Perhaps that's why the man made such an amazing teacher.

Iruka wept softly into Kakashi's chest, the jounin didn't even notice he was crying with him, tears falling slowly down his own face. There was a vast sadness in the room, but there was also a sense of comfort and caring, that soothed them both until their tears dried, but they continued holding each other not saying anything, just being comforted.

After what seemed like hours, Iruka looked up at Kakashi with sad eyes, the older man looked vaguely apologetic and caring. Iruka closed his eyes and kissed the maskless Kakashi, something he had become rather accustom to. The kiss was shy and soothing, a timid 'thank you' for the comfort Kakashi had given him. The jounin returned the show of gratitude, kissing the chuunin back with a passionate tenderness that was new to Iruka, almost needy. The kiss quickly elevated to something more heated and desperate. Without much of a warning Kakashi stood, and took Iruka with him, carrying the chuunin. While the teacher wasn't exactly sure where they were going he had a guess, and he felt butterflies fill his stomach in anticipation.

Kakashi gently laid him on the bed after their short walk to the bedroom. Iruka simply pulled Kakashi down on top of himself and continued where they had left off, kissing the man deeply and letting his hands roam over the naked, muscular chest and back above him, reveling in how the tense muscles seemed to relax slightly to his touch, only to tense again in what Iruka could only guess was expectation. The jounin busied himself removing Iruka's clothing rather methodically. His pace was unhurried, but Iruka could sense the excitement radiating off of him. First went the hair tie that held the chuunin's hair together loosely at the nape of his neck. Kakashi's hand slipped hesitantly under the other man's shirt, tugging slightly before he pulled away, panting slightly. Iruka saw a curiosity in the jounin's face, but couldn't quite decipher it in his haze. Kakashi gave the shirt another small tug, and Iruka was hit with the realization that Kakashi was asking permission. Even after all that they had shared together, Kakashi was still shy. It was endearing really. Iruka simply nodded, and went to work taking off his own pants to speed the process along.

Once Iruka was free of all of his clothing, he looked up at Kakashi grinning, and he was sure his eyes were full of lust and excitement. Kakashi, however, looked down at him with a strong sense of caring… no, it was deeper than that, but Iruka still didn't know exactly how to classify it, just that it made him shiver slightly and the already present butterflies seemed to multiply. There was also an uncertainness about Kakashi that stemmed from his shy demeanor, but Iruka could tell that he was the cause of part of that uncertainty as well. The jounin didn't want to hurt him, or to scare him away, Iruka reached out a hand to caress Kakashi's face gently, his action only served to intensify the deep emotion in the jounin's eyes, and Iruka felt himself tremble slightly.

Kakashi leaned down and kissed Iruka deeply, one hand gently caressing the chuunin's thigh while the other held his head, pulling him closer into the emotional kiss. Iruka felt himself moan quietly into the kiss, Kakashi simply smiled and continued to explore Iruka's mouth with his tongue, slowly, precisely, and Iruka couldn't help the second moan Kakashi pulled out of him with his ministrations. There was something about the jounin's slow pace that made everything more sensual, more meaningful. He wasn't hurried to get to the point, as most of his past lovers had been, he wanted something more from this, and the chuunin felt his heart flutter at the thought.

Kakashi pulled away again, finding the chunnin's neck and kissing, nibbling, and sucking there noting particularly sensitive areas and grinning at Irukas reactions as he moaned in pleasure. The anticipation Kakashi had instilled in him had made his whole body more sensitive, even the slightest contact was giving him shivers, and his ignored erection was beginning to protest. He was painfully hard, and didn't know how much more of the teasing he'd be able to stand before he exploded of mere anticipation, but Kakashi didn't seem to notice. He just continued on his leisurely pace, trailing kisses down Iruka's chest until he reached a nipple, with the vague hesitation that accompanied everything the jounin did, he took it into his mouth sucking, and nipping lightly. Iruka bit his lip, and fought to hold back the moan rising in his throat, his whole body trembled, and his hands found their way to Kakashi's silver locks, burying his fingers in them and massaging the jounin's head as he silently begged Kakashi to continue.

Kakashi complied of course, continuing his ministrations as his hands, once again began to wonder, exploring every inch of his chuunin with light caresses that were giving Iruka goosebumps. Finally Kakashi's hand found Iruka's member, his fingers gingerly caressing the sensitive organ. The chuunin's hips jerked forward, encouraging Kakashi to continue. The brunette released Kakashi's silver hair, to once again roam over the taught muscles of the man's back and chest. Kakashi grinned noting that Iruka's breath was now coming in uneven pants, and the chuunin's eyes had fluttered closed. Kakashi paused for a moment, unsure of himself, but seeing how well Iruka had been responding to things so far he hesitantly reached under his pillow and pulled out a small bottle of lube.

When Kakashi's hand stopped moving, Iruka's eyes opened, half lidded and curious. When he saw Kakashi with the small bottle of lube, looking more hesitant than ever, he grinned to himself.

"It's okay Kashi." He whispered reassuringly, letting his hand draw small circle's on the jounin's chest.

Kakashi nodded, and opened the bottle, coating two fingers in the substance, and repositioned himself between Iruka's legs. Iruka, without any prompting from Kakashi lifted one leg and hooked it over the jounin's shoulder in an encouraging gesture. With a deep sigh, Kakashi slowly slide one finger into Iruka, being particularly careful not to hurt the man. The chuunin bit his lip, and his back arched slightly, his whole body begging for more, but Kakashi took his time sliding his finger in and out slowly until there was little resistance. He inserted a second finger and repeated the process, this time searching for something. When Iruka cried out, back arching, and body trembling, Kakashi knew he had found it. He kissed the chuunin on the forehead, sweetly, smiling all the while.

Removing the two fingers, Kakashi proceeded to coat his own member in lube, allowing Iruka to ogle as he did so. Kakashi was of good size and girth, but not so big Iruka was half tempted to run away screaming, just the size he'd have wet dreams about for, likely, the rest of his life. Kakashi blushed at the attention he received, and Iruka simply smiled in response.

Kakashi positioned himself at Iruka's entrance, looking down at the chuunin with that curious stare, silently asking permission. Iruka simply nodded, and pressed himself back against Kakashi to emphasize the statement. Kakashi slid into him slowly, letting out a long, shuddering breath as he did so. Iruka wrapped his free leg around Kakashi's waist, looked up at the jounin expectantly. Kakashi moved slowly, sliding almost all the way out before pushing back in at an easy pace, taking him time as though he was trying to get this right. Iruka's whole body was trembling, begging for more, but Kakashi kept his pace slow and deliberate, until the chuunin gave another small cry, and Kakashi felt the muscles around him tighten. With a grin Kakashi sped his pace up only slightly, but his thrusts were forceful and precise, his aim perfect. Iruka was calling out his name, clutching to him tightly ad Kakashi's breath began to hitch.

Biting his lip Iruka rocked his hips back against Kakashi's falling into rhythm easily. Kakashi let out a low groan, and reached a hand down to pump Iruka's neglected member. He felt Iruka's muscles tighten around him once again, and knew he wouldn't last much longer. The chuunin was too tight, and the noises the brunette made were driving him over the edge more quickly than he had expected.

Kakashi leaned forward kissing Iruka's necked softly before whispering in his ear, "I love you."

Iruka's eyes went wide, and before he had a chance to consider the words, let alone react he felt his body convulsing in climax, and the only thing he could think to say was Kakashi's name. The jounin followed suit, spilling himself inside of Iruka as he called his lover's name, and collapsed on top of the younger man. There was a long moment where neither bothered to move, they simply lay there trying to calm their breathing and regain control of their limbs. Finally, Kakashi sat up enough to kiss Iruka on the forehead once again as he pulled out, and rolled over next to the man rather than on top of him. He closed his eyes and sighed before turning to look at the chuunin, a grin in his eye, but his face looked serious and content.

"I love you too." Iruka said finally, once his thoughts had settled. That had been the emotion he hadn't been able to place, the deep feeling of need he had for the man. There were still questions he wanted to ask, but he understood more certainly now, why his relationship with Kakashi was so much different than any other he'd had. Why what they had just shared together was so much more special than anything he'd done with his past partners.

Kakashi simply smiled, and wrapped an arm around his lover. There were still messes that needed to be cleaned up, but for the first time in his life, Kakashi didn't care. The only thing he cared about was the man next to him, everything else seemed petty. Everything else could wait.

A/N: Okay… so… I originally intended to have Kakashi be uke for at least their first time, but for some reason couldn't seem to get it to work. (There was oriniginally about three paragraphs worth of explanation here, but I think that's a bit much, so just know that Kakashi was originally going to be uke). Anyway, we've finally made it to the ending stages. Let me know what you think. Sequel? No sequel? I'll shut up now. Thanks for reading. And thanks to all of you who review! You really do mean the world to me.

Oh, I would also like to apologize for the tardiness of this short little chapter. My internet went out yesterday, and I couldn't post it. Sorry.
