A ninja must see underneath the underneath

Chapter 29 - A Genin's Birthday

As usual, Kakashi was the first one to wake up in the morning. He was used to getting by with little sleep, and it actually worked to his advantage, seeing how he loved watching Naruto sleep. 

The young shinobi often talked or moved in his sleep, and he found it adorable. The topics of Naruto's dreams were always the same. Ramen, Kakashi, or a battle. Nonetheless, it was very intriguing to listen to. The morning of his birthday, Naruto was dreaming about ramen. "Probably because I told him we would get some today." Kakashi mused as he watched his drooling lover with sleepy eyes.

Kakashi pulled Naruto's warm body closer and crawled up against him in an embrace. As his lover awoke, he kissed the back of his neck. "Good morning birthday boy," Kakashi said softly.

Naruto hummed to acknowledge Kakashi's greeting. He turned around to face his lover. "Gmorning to you too." He mumbled sleepily. He was greeted with a kiss on the nose.

"Want some breakfast?" Kakashi asked while stroking the blond's hair.

"Sure. Sounds great." Naruto said somewhat more awake.

"I'll take care of it," Kakashi replied as he kissed Naruto's lips and got up. He stretched his limbs and grabbed a pair of loose pants and a T-shirt. Not bothering with putting on shoes, he walked out of the room while ruffling his hair. He knew it was hopeless to try and get it into a decent shape anyways.

When he got downstairs, he grabbed a platter and two plates from the breakfast bar. Not knowing what Naruto would like best, he picked a little of everything. Chocolate cereal, fruit, some sandwiches, some bacon, and some scrambled eggs. He also picked up two glasses of orange juice. When he was done, he went back upstairs to the room. It appeared that Naruto had fallen asleep again, face down onto a pillow. He appeared to be mumbling something about shadow clones.

Kakashi sat down beside him and ruffled his hair. "Breakfast is here." He said quietly.

Naruto turned around and placed his head onto Kakashi's lap sleep drunk. "Thanks, he mumbled."

"Would you rather sleep in?" Kakashi asked as he played with the blond hair on his lap.

"Not really... starving..." Naruto replied.

"As usual." Kakashi thought with a smile.

"Maybe you can feed me something," Naruto said playfully as he pressed his face onto Kakashi's crotch while snickering.

Kakashi laughed. "So young and already a complete pervert." He said jokily as Naruto nibbled away at the growing bump in his crotch. "Forget it kid, I already sneaked breakfast upstairs and we're not going to waste it. I actually brought you the non-healthy stuff you like."

"Really?" Naruto asked with piqued interest. "Awesome!" He smiled as he pushed himself up.

Kakashi sat back against the headboard of the bed, next to the platter on the nightstand. As he expected, Naruto sat down across from him. Before they became a couple, they always sat down back to back, now, Naruto had made a habit out of sitting in between Kakashi's legs, or across from him. Kakashi loved little casual habits like that. It made life seem so normal and predictable.

He put the platter in between the two of them.

"I didn't know what you liked best, so I brought a bit of everything." He explained himself.

"A breakfast buffet in bed? It's perfect." Naruto said with a sincere smile.

Kakashi chuckled as he picked up an apple and took a bite out of it. "So what do you want to do today? It's your birthday, so you should choose."
