===================

The darkness pressed in from all around him.

It was so silent and absolute that the only sound was the pounding of his own heart and the whisper of the cool wind over his skin. Damp with sweat from the chase, even the light touch of the air raised small hairs all over his body. He shivered before he could stop himself and a familiar heat rushed to take the chill away.

His heartbeat was so strong, he almost didn't notice the faint ripping sound coming from directly in front of him. Something very cold barely brushed against his chest. When the wind gusted him, his shudder was not merely from the cold.

A faint tickle brushed over his shoulders as his hair fell loose, caught by the breeze.

Iruka jumped as a hand from nowhere in the darkness gently touched the side of his face. His heart leapt into his throat as nimble fingers worked against the fabric binding his eyes. The chill against his damp skin was getting harder to ignore. As the darkness slowly began to lift, Iruka took a breath, scowl already spreading across his face.

When the black warmed to gray and the blindfold was removed, Iruka wasn't so much surprised by the eyes that met him as he was astounded by them. No more than a few inches away, shining and beautiful in the moonlight. The scowl couldn't help but leave his face, and the mismatched eyes grinned at him.

"You put up quite the fight, Iruka-sensei. But in the end," the pale-haired jounin leaned to the bend on Iruka's neck, "you couldn't get away from me."

Iruka had to swallow down a bit of nervousness as he tested his body. He was here, on his knees in front of Kakashi, shirt split and wrapped to bind his wrists behind him. A gasp escaped his lips at the first touch of Kakashi's mouth. His arms twitched to do something, either push the jounin away or pull him closer, but couldn't move under the binding of his torn shirt. The first touch of Kakashi's warm tongue against his cooled skin nearly pulled a groan from his chest.

Kakashi grinned wider, an expression that dragged over Iruka's sensitive skin, raising hairs on his neck in anticipation. "Mmmm. Salty and bittersweet."

He must have started leaning into Kakashi's warmth because when the other man stood, Iruka was nearly thrown off balance. He was glad for the darkness, because it hid the crimson that was rising to his face. Oh, Kakashi had seen it often enough, but if the jounin ever thought that Iruka was giving in too easily....

The chuunin suddenly was unable to complete his thought. Iruka glanced up at the other man's body, bathed in moonlight. Kakashi's bare skin showed no sign of being cold, instead glowing like white heat in the darkness.

Iruka raised up in his knees, closing his eyes against sudden ever greater embarrassment. He wanted that heat, wanted to feel it... wanted to taste it. Wrists obediently lowered, Iruka extended a tentative tongue to touch the bulge in Kakashi's pants.

Not even moments later, there was no more room for thoughts or nervousness. Shadows and light played and glistened across their skin. Wind twisted gently around them. Iruka knelt, chest flushed with pleasure, and took Kakashi's warmth inside his mouth as his own. Hungrily, Iruka massaged the firm shaft with his tongue, pulling Kakashi deep inside. He bobbed his head slowly, exploring every small curve of flesh with a careful attention. When Kakashi throbbed against him, Iruka moaned softly, vibrating deep in his throat before raising his eyes.

Pale hair seemed to sparkle in the light as Kakashi's head bowed to the chuunin. One hand slid into Iruka's hair, weaving through it, in and out, to follow and encourage the rhythm. His fingers clenched only once with a small growl and a quick thrust deeper into Iruka's mouth.

It was all Iruka could do to comply. Closing his eyes again, he sucked Kakashi down, deeper and deeper as his cock hardened almost painfully. Iruka knew he could keep Kakashi here, make him pay for the chase that the jounin was so fond of. Iruka opened his eyes, flashing a mischievous glint. When he raised this look, their eyes met, and Kakashi knew just what Iruka was thinking. Kakashi groaned in protest at being teased, so Iruka grazed his teeth gently over the base of his shaft.

It was all over at once in a flash of white. Iruka barely swallowed him down before Kakashi sank to his knees. The smirk on his face didn't quite match the almost drunk look in his eyes, but it was close. Without a warning, Kakashi grabbed the sides of Iruka's face and dragged him into a deep, salty kiss.

The wind danced around them in solitude. The silence of the night sealing them from discovery. When the morning came, it would be as it always was. But the night seemed as endless as always.
