Returning to his classroom, Kakashi waited for his students to file in before taking attendance, and then gave them their directions. once that was done and over with, he glanced at the clock. Hnn... I'll only be gone for two minutes, I guess, he reasoned, getting up out of his chair. "I'm going to go for a few minutes," he said, approaching the door. "Continue to take notes." With that, he walked out, again going to the teachers' lounge. Upon seeing Iruka on the floor, he looked around for anyone else. Seeing that the room was empty, he approached Iruka's curled up body, picking him up carefully and putting him back on the couch. His hand lingered on the back of his neck for a moment as he set him down. Being reminded of a scene in Icha Icha, he blushed slightly. No, not here... besides, I'm only looking after him.
Naruto blushed furiously, taking out his gym clothes. It wasn't that bad, right? Sasuke surely wasn't looking. He played with the hem of his shirt before quickly pulling it off, fumbling with the other shirt and shoving it over his head. There, not that hard. Now he just needed to change his pants. Gulping, he took a glance back, only to see Sasuke pulling on his other pair of pants. Snapping his head away, he shook his head. Why was he getting so nervous? They were both guys, after all! He pulled his own pants down as quick as possible, putting the other one's on.
"No problem," Zabuza said.
ooc// Sorry it's so short for Zabuza, I couldn't think of anything. x_x//

Iruka shifted in his sleep again as he was set down on the couch, though this time the sudden change from floor up to couch woke him up. It was not instant, but started with the shifting, and than he opened his eyes. His eyes were still hazy, and his vision was very blurry, so he could not make out a lot. He grumble, bringing one hand up to rub his eyes, trying to focus his vision. "'os thr..." he said, trying to ask who was there but his speech was also slurred by just being woken up.
Sasuke had his clothing all on now, looking in his bag for no reason at all to wait until Naruto was done changeing. Once he was sure that Naruto was done, and forceing down the tight feeling in his chest, he turned around to look at Naruto. Guilt was currently eating away at him, as much as he hated to admit it. "N-..... Naruto?" he said, trying to start conversation so he could get the apology out and get on with his life.

Zaku found a set of stairs and went up them and through the door at top. "Sorry." he muttered as he bumped into someone as he brushed past. It should be plenty quiet up here. He thought as he looked around the empty roof. I wonder what they were doing up here, all alone...whatever. He found a place to sit then pulled out his guitar.
Chouji rubbed his arm where he'd been bumped into. "I guess no one wants to be in class." he said and looked over at the kid with the guitar. "Anyway, shall we meet up here for lunch, Shikamaru?"

"Yo," Kakashi said, quickly retracting his hand and standing up. "Feeling better?"
"H-huh?" Naruto turned around warily. Relieved to see that Sasuke was now fully clothed, he calmed down a bit; though the feeling still lingered slightly. He stuffed his clothes in a locker, turning back to Sasuke. "What is it?" he asked, palms opening and closing by his sides.

Shikamaru glared behind him at the boy who had come past and bumped into Chouji, a bit ticked. 1) this was supposed to be his and Chouji's place... and 2) he had just bumped into Chouji. Shikamaru looked back to Chouji now, glare dropping back to his bored expression. "Yeah, here sounds nice." he commented.
Iruka blinked now, still trying to clear away the fuzziness. "Ka-.... Kakashi?" he said in a questioning tone, recognizing the voice, and could make out his silver hair now. "I thought you left..." he muttered, vision clearing up rapidly as he rubbed the sleep out of his eyes. He sat up now, running a hand though his hair, stopping when he reached the back of his head though, noticing something was missing. "Where's my hair tie?" he asked, looking around now, trying to find it. He didn't like his hair down... so he always kept it up.
Sasuke cleared his throat, and walked over to Naruto. "I-.... You were...." he started. For once, Sasuke was at a loss for words. "Our race. I shouldn't have been such a a** to you about winning. Sorry." he said bluntly, turning now and going back to his locker. 'There. I said it.' he told himself, pretending to be preoccupied with trying to go through his bag looking for nothing.

"I did, but I came back," Kakashi said, crossing his arms idly. He watched Iruka's efforts to find his hair tie. "Don't bother, it looks good like that," he said, voicing his mind. He was half-teasing, but it was the truth. He liked how the man's hair looked down.
Naruto stood there, a bit dumbfounded. Did Sasuke just... apologize? Well that had never happened before. Normally, he would be jumping around and milking it for what it was worth, but with the knot in his throat it was a bit impossible. "Uhh... It's okay, don't worry about it."

Chouji noticed Shikamarus brief mood change and smiled as he started down the stairs. Was he getting mad for me? "If I can get into the cooking room again at the beginning of lunch, I'll make us something better to eat."

Iruka looked up at Kakashi, vision right back to normal now, trying to see if he was kidding or not, but immidiately looked away again when he felt heat rise to his face. "N-no it doesn't, it is messy and looks weird." he commented quickly, turning fully away from Kakashi and looking behind the couch, knowing that he was blushing. 'No... no no no! This has absolutely no effect on me at all. I blame the caffine and sleep.'
Sasuke looked to Naruto, trying to give him a cold glare... though it was a very soft one. "Well... don't expect apologies ever again. I only did it beacuse you looked depressed and was trudging around like a sore loser." he said, not doing too good with putting sharpness in his voice either. It came out way to soft for Sasuke's likeing.
Shikamaru nodded, saying "I will meet you there than. Mabye I can even help out. I might stink at cooking but I am sure I can be a kitchen helper or something." he suggested. He had helped him mom makes cookies once.... well... it was more like drop a uncracked egg into a bowl than fall asleep until the cookies were done. But it was kind of helping....

Kakashi cocked his head at Iruka's actions. Was he... blushing? "Well, I think it looks nice," he said, smirking a bit as Iruka tried to look away. Still standing, he inched closer, though not quite enough for the other man to notice right away.
Noticing that Sasuke was only insulting him half-heartedly, Naruto felt the heat rise up on his cheeks again. The boy was saying things, but it felt like he meant the opposite. "Pfft," he said, managing just as little enthusiasm as Sasuke had. "Was not."

Iruka was still looking over the side of the couch, as Kakashi commented again. He peeked over his shoulder, noticing Kakashi was closer now, and had been there for god knows how long. Iruka felt his face flare up again, trying to turn his head away more now, so that Kakashi could not see if from his new position. "W-w-well I don't like it down. It gets in the way."
'This is starting to get back to normal...' thought Sasuke, as he rolled his eyes. "Please... you were sulking around and looked like a kicked puppy." he said now, in a lighter and more relaxed tone.

In the way of what? Kakashi thought, but decided not to say it. Really, the last thing he needed was to scare Iruka off. "That can't be why you're so flustered all of a sudden," he said instead. "Is it?"
Naruto also calmed down a bit, the lump in his throat disappearing. Sasuke was back to teasing him, but that was what he was used to, and that was the way he liked it... even though he'd never show it. "Shut up, teme," he said, trying to put on a glare, but it came off more as a goofy smirk.

Iruka turned to look at Kakashi now, forgetting for a moment his face was still quite red. "I am not flustered! I am looking for my hair tie!" he said in his defense, crossing his arms over his chest.
Sasuke smirked now, and replied "That's my line, Dobe." and put his backpack into the locker, closing his locker door. "I am not the one always going around and shouting at anything that moves." he added. Sasuke was now very glad he had decided to apologize.

(( xd Shikamaru's a good 'helper'))
"Okay, and I'd love some help. It's always good for everyone to know how to cook, you never know when you'll need it." Chouji said and looked over his shoulder at Shikamaru. "When you get older and marry, it's nice when the husband cooks once in awhile too."

Kakashi chuckled, poking Iruka's burning cheek. "But you are cherry red, Iruka-san," he said, amused, and paused to lean closer to Iruka's ear. "Surely someone doesn't become that red just from searching for something." Admittedly, he couldn't help himself. Iruka's reactions were just too enjoyable, and he wouldn't be surprised if the man became angry with him.
"Hmph." Naruto stood in place, now managing to glare daggers at Sasuke. Funny how the mood could change in such a short period of time, as now it felt like it always did. No more embarrassment, no more nervousness. The blonde wondered why he had felt that way in the first place, but decided to shake it off. Things were back to normal, he was with Sasuke, and nothing else mattered.

Shikamaru just shrugged, and said "It is nice I guess, but I am already a lost cause. I will never be able to cook anything on my own. Apparently you have to crack the eggs first before you put them in the bowl..." he commented, remembering how his mom yelled at him for just dropping it in.
Iruka felt a very strong shiver go down his spine as Kakashi said that last comment right in his ear, letting out a small 'eep' sound from the back of his throat before backing up to the corner of the couch, even more red than before. "I-i-i-i.... Caffine fever!" was all his mind could think of, and he blurted it out. He mentally slapped himself for that though. 'Caffine induced fever? Since when did people get fever from Caffine?!'
Sasuke just smirked more as Naruto glared daggers at him, and decided to stop the teasing there. "Relax, I was just joking. No need to try to glare me to death." he said, turning and walking for the exit to the boy's locker room.
