25 days of Winter Cheer
Time Together
Prompt: Time off or not
Iruka sat down on his couch looking at the discarded messenger bag by the door. He got a whole two weeks off at this time of year and he knew there was no way he was going to waste it on grading papers.
Okay so maybe he'd done that in the past, but this year was going to be about relaxing. He had Kakashi this year, and from what he knew of the mission reports, a year where Kakashi finally had work off. Iruka smiled drifting off to sleep on the couch.
Kakashi opened the door, sighing as he dropped his flak jacket on the floor and shuffled through his home. He smiled slightly when he saw Iruka asleep in the living room, but it disappeared soon after as he clenched the mission scroll in his hand. Inching closer Kakashi watched the peaceful smile on Iruka's face before he set the scroll down on the table. He sat down on the couch next to his lover as he lightly ran a hand through Iruka's already messed up hair.
Iruka nuzzled into the hand that rested on his cheek, eyes fluttering open as a kiss was placed on his cheek.
"Hey you," He mumbled as he saw Kakashi's face in front of his. They looked at each other for a moment, and Iruka knew what was wrong. "She gave you a mission, didn't she…"
Kakashi couldn't even speak, just simply nodded as he smiled softly for Iruka.
Anyone could see the life leave Iruka's face as he let out a sigh, "When do you leave?" He glanced at the messenger bag wondering if he might be back to work again this year.
"The morning, and I don't know how long it'll be." Kakashi replied answering the next question before it left Iruka's mouth.
Iruka looked deep into Kakashi's eyes, the two speaking without the necessity of words. Their wordless conversation ending with a smirk on Iruka's face, and Kakashi picking him up from the couch princess style. "Better make up for that lost time," Iruka said out loud. He grabbed Kakashi's head kissing him deeply as they disappeared into their bedroom.
AN: So overall I've been trying to make these feel like they could all be within a single Christmas, but this prompt will directly tie in with the next 3 days.
