A/n: it was so hard to write this chapter. I knew what I wanted to do but I couldn’t get there. Plus I got a second job so I have less of a life than before. So sorry about the delay. Chap 7 should come out quicker cause it was the chap that I was looking forward to the most. Also if you have never been houseboating on Lake Powell I seriously recommend it. Its f**king awesome.

Oh and this is un-beta’d cause I really wanted to get this out but once its beta’d I will post the better version.

Monday rolled around and Kakashi was forced to get up for class. He had another midterm that day that he really couldn’t miss. The weekend was a failure. He didn’t successfully tell Iruka that he had the world biggest crush, bordering obsession, on him, so he ended up getting drunk instead. He wasn’t entirely sure how he got home that night. All he remembered was that come Sunday morning he had a huge headache, only wearing boxers, and no recollection past his seventh or eighth drink. Anko could have stopped supplying and mixing extra strong drinks for him but the bitch decided not to for her own amusement. What was more fun than a drunken Kakashi who would say anything and everything on his mind?

The biggest question for today would be if he should go talk to Iruka and finally own up to being the person who sent the flowers. Groaning he realized that the midterm was the in the class he regularly skipped to have lunch with Iruka. 'Oh well ill talk to him eventually.'

Iruka groaned and rolled out of bed tripping on the sheet in a sad attempt to turn off the blaring alarm clock. Of course, he had to place it across the room to force him to get up in order to turn it off. He did not want to face today. The weekend completely sucked and he made a complete ass of himself. He was positive by now everyone will have heard what went down. Gossip and rumors ran rampant among RA's. Kotetsu and Izumo tried to cheer him up on Sunday by visiting and dragging him out of his apt. It didn’t work too well cause about 10 min later; they ran into Aoba in which Iruka dove behind Ko and Zu into some bushes. They found this hilarious and continued to tease him by saying they spotted Aoba just to see him jump and hide behind the nearest object. Luckily, today he had kung fu to take some of his stress out. Plus Genma and Raidou were planning to have a dinner. Nothing big like the BBQ but at least he would be able to find some sympathy from them.

His day was going from bad to worse. The hangover he thought had vanished by Sunday evening returned to a throbbing headache right in the middle of the final. It took everything he had just stay there and finish. Greatly looking forward to spending the rest of the night in bed was interrupted by a text from Genma.

"Hey dinner tonight come over and we can hang out."

"Sure what time?"

"In 15min just come over."

"I’m not going to be good company right now."

"Whatever just get your lazy ass over here."

Sighing Kakashi dropped his stuff at home grabbed Pakkun and started to walk slowly over to Genma’s and Raidou's. He was expecting the ecstatic Genma and the hug but he was not expecting Iruka to be there. Kakashi scowled and turned to ask Genma what the hell he was planning only to get a closer look at Iruka who was sitting there on the couch looking...dejected?

This piqued his curiosity. What would cause him to look so upset? Kakashi would have thought that he sending the flowers would have made Iruka look happy and confused. Then seek the help of friends to discover who the sender was.

He pulled Genma by the front of shirt, waving to Iruka and Rai in the living room, “We’ll be right back,” smiling that crescent eye smile, dragging Genma down the hallway to the bedroom. Raidou just sighed knowing Genma better explain himself properly.

Iruka looked up when a knock came at the door. He was hoping that it was just going to be him gen and Rai. Hearing Genma get overly excited, he looked up only to see the last person he wanted to know about his embarrassing weekend. ‘Great now he’s going to join in with the mocking about my assumption. Wait why is he staring at me like that?’ Iruka watched the play of emotions cross through Kakashi’s eyes annoyance, confusion, sadness mixed with anger? Next thing he knew Kakashi was dragging Genma by the shirt down the hallway. Confused he looked to Raidou who was just sighing and shaking his head. Obviously, he was missing something big here.

“Just what exactly are you planning here Genma?” Kakashi hissed.

“I have no idea what you are talking about,” smirked Genma.

“Yes you do, but before we get to that why does Iruka look depressed?” demanded Kakashi.

“Well his assumption about the flowers led him to ask Aoba out. Actually for a straight guy it went really well but Iruka is beyond embarrassed,” replied Genma. “Every time he sees Aoba he runs and hides. Now he’s extremely confused on who sent him the flowers because it shows that someone knows exactly what he likes so he obviously knows them.”

“Ok that does explain a lot but why did you invite both of us over for then?” asked Kakashi.

“That should be obvious. We are all tired of this hesitation. Just get over it and ask him out. Now is the best time. Anyways I bet dinner is ready,” stated Genma who patted Kakashi on the shoulder and headed back out into the living room.

Kakashi followed Genma to find Raidou and Iruka setting the table. Thinking things over he grabbed some silverware to help while Genma carried the food out of the kitchen. Dinner started out uneventfully. Iruka was preoccupied with worrying if Kakashi knew his embarrassing weekend determined not to look at him. Kakashi was chewing thoughtfully figuring the best plan of action to finally ask Iruka out. Genma and Raidou just looked at each other wondering how to break up the awkward dinner in silence.

“What do you all have planned for spring break?” Raidou finally asked.

Iruka stopped eating, “Nothing really. I haven’t really thought about it. Haha. Completely forgot that it was next month.”

“What about you Kakashi? Going anywhere?” asked Raidou.

“Nope. Was just going to do my usual lounging around reading porn,” grinned Kakashi. Iruka blushed at this and Genma just smirked.

“Well Gen and I had this idea to rent a houseboat at Lake Powell for the week. Maybe a couple of Jet Ski’s as well. What do you think?” said Raidou.

“We were gonna invite you guys, Kotetsu, Izumo and Anko. Are we missing anyone?” grinned Genma.

“I think that’s an awesome idea. But how much is it going to cost?” said Iruka smiling.

“The price depends on what size boat we rent and how long we are going to rent it. There are several boat size options but I wanted to make sure that everyone is going to go first then we can figure out how much everyone owes later,” stated Raidou.

“Does anyone here know how to drive a boat?” Iruka asked suddenly. “I mean this is an awesome idea but I’ve never been on a boat let alone driven one.”

“That’s where Mr. Silent comes in. What do you think Kakashi?” asked Genma.

Kakashi looked around the table thinking, ‘Hmm…a whole out in beautiful Utah on a lake with Iruka. Miles from civilization with warm weather and brilliant scenery.’ Genma started to smirk trying to suppress a giggle while Raidou had a small smile across his face.

“I’m in. plus,” he said looking at Iruka. “I know how to drive a boat; I’m very good at it, any size or shape.” He grinned as a blush started to take over Iruka’s face. “Besides it won’t cost that much for the week.”

“We can’t ask you to do that,” said Genma seriously.

“You didn’t ask I’m just doing. Don’t worry about. Rai how many Jet Ski’s?” asked Kakashi ignoring Genma’s glare.

“We were thinking at least 2 which would let 4 people at a time go,” said Raidou.

“Wait a min, back up, why shouldn’t we worry about the cost?” interrupted Iruka confused.

“Yeah Kakashi,” glared Genma.

Kakashi just glared right back while Raidou shook his head again. He hated to bring up that he had a lot of money and just worked because he was bored. No one except his close friends knew he had money and Kakashi didn’t want everyone to miss this adventure just because there was a lack of funds. The fact that he a side motive of seducing Iruka out on the lake had nothing to do with it.

“Drop it Genma,” stated Kakashi staring at him.

“No I’m not going to drop it. You do this all the time let us take some of the responsibility,” stated Genma.

“That’s not why I do this. You should know that by now,” said Kakashi crossing his arms.

“Are you trying to rub it in?” demanded Genma slowly crossing the invisible line.

“Shit,” whispered Raidou. Iruka glanced at him thinking ‘what the fuck is going on here?’

Kakashi growled, “Do you honestly think I would do that? Do you think I like have a shit ton of money? Seriously Genma, what the fuck? So what if I want to spend it on my friends, what’s a better way to get rid of it?!”

“No I don’t you know that. What I hate is that you always do this and never let anyone to pay you back for anything. It makes me uncomfortable and awkward. I can’t just keep accepting you paying for all of our vacations that we take together even though we never not once have ever asked you to pay for it,” shouted Genma.

“Guys stop it right now!” yelled Raidou.

Kakashi sat there fuming while Genma glared in the opposite direction. Iruka had a dumbstruck look on his face finally realizing that one, they were fighting over money, and two Kakashi was apparently rich.

“Look Kakashi Genma didn’t mean half of what he said especially about rubbing it in,” Raidou glared at Genma to keep his trap shut. “I understand why you do it and seriously every time I’m in just as much surprise as anyone else by your generosity but it wouldn’t hurt,” now he glared at Kakashi to keep his trap shut, “if you allowed us to pay for some things too. That way we don’t feel like we are taking advantage of you.” Raidou looked around the table. Kakashi seemed to be thinking over what he said while Genma continued to glare at the wall but some tenseness left his shoulders. Iruka was sitting awkwardly in his seat unsure of what to do not wanting to make the situation worse.

“How about you let us deal with food and getting to and from Lake Powell?” Iruka suggested.

Everyone turned to look at him. Kakashi was surprised that Iruka didn’t just blurt out ‘You’re rich?’ like everyone else.

“Now that’s an idea,” said Raidou thoughtfully. “What do you guys think?”

“Fine,” said Genma.

“Sure,” shrugged Kakashi. “I’m going to invite Kurenai and Asuma as well. That ok with you guys?”

“More the merrier,” smiled Raidou glad the fight was subsiding. “We should get back to what size boat we want to get and call everyone up and make sure they can go.”

“Lets start with boat size,” said Kakashi looking over and winking at Iruka who blushed again.

“If everyone we listed goes and everyone gets their own room we only would need 5 rooms,” said Raidou, “but some of the 6 room boats have more amenities. Let me get my laptop and show you.”

Raidou returned quickly with his laptop and opened it up to the saved website. Kakashi moved his chair around to Raidou to look at the boats. Iruka not wanting to miss anything scooted closer as well to see the screen. Genma still sulking didn’t move.

“Lets start at the bottom and work our way up to the most expensive,” said Rai. He clicked on the 30’ Weekender. That one was out, way too small, but it was named properly. Next was the 44’ Explorer which was immediately nixed as it didn’t have a bedroom at all. Next was the 46’ Expedition. It got a little better but only had one room and two beds, but it had a slide. Iruka pointed this out with a silly smile on his face.

Kakashi grinned, ‘Ok I’m making sure we have a slide.’

Next was the 46’ Voyager which got even better with 2 bedrooms, a grill, a slide, and a generator so they could have A/C if they wanted to. Raidou thought they would be fine with this one but Kakashi wanted to keep going. Next came the 46’ Voyager XL which had everything the Voyager had but also had one bathroom with shower, and efficient gas appliances, including a water heater, refrigerator/freezer, a range and an oven. They continued to work their way up the list of boats to the biggest boat they had the 75’ Silver XTreme. Kakashi was all for this one but it was lacking one big feature, which was the waterslide. He also didn’t like the look of the 75’ Silver XT, it wasn’t atheistically pleasing but it had five bedrooms not 6 so he could manipulate it so he and Iruka shared. Still, not able to handle driving a boat that looked like that he said that the 75’ Odyssey would be perfect. It had everything, the slide, 2 upper decks and ramps on the back to tow some jet skis.

Looking at Iruka’s face while skimming through all the different boats confirmed that this was going to be the best spring break he had in a long time. Genma finally gave in, scooted over to view the boats as well, and had a goofy grin on once he saw Kakashi’s selection.
