"After dinner Kiba ran to the room and fell asleep. Naruto helped Iruka into the room and once they got inside Naruto instantly fell asleep.
                          
The room was arranged with three beds, right besides each other. In-between each bed was a nightstand with a lamp on it, along with other things. On the other far side of the room was the bathtub they used earlier. The door near the bathtub is where the toilet would be found. In between the bathtub and the beds is a nice sitting area. There was a window in front of the sitting area that allowed a view of the ocean. It also had some potted plants on the windowsill.
                          
Naruto slept in the middle bed, Kiba on the bed farthest from the door and Iruka laid in the bed nearest the door. He hadn't fallen asleep yet, his hunger was keeping him up.
                          
Iruka sighed closing his eyes. What I wouldn't do for some meeto pla (1). He pictured the dish in his mind, and subconsciously licked his lips.
                          
A knock broke Iruka's mental picture. Iruka sat up then slipped off the bed. He carefully walked towards the light knocking, then searched for the doorknob.
                          
"Hello?" Iruka greeted.
                          
"Ah, hello Iruka, did I wake you?" Kakashi asked.
                          
"Kakashi?" Iruka opened the door fully open. "No, I haven't fallen asleep yet."
                          
"Oh." Kakashi smiled. "Well since I skipped out on dinner I've become very hungry and I remember you too passed on the meal. So, would you like to accompany me to get some food?"
                          
Iruka thought for a moment. "Yes, that would be marvelous I am a little hungry."
                          
"Good then." Kakashi grabbed Iruka's arm. "Since you haven't changed out of your dinner clothes let us be on our way."
                          
Dinner clothes? Are we suppose to change out of these too
                          
The two left the palace grounds and went into a restaurant.
                          
"What can I get you two?" A man asked politely recognizing Kakashi.
                          
"Hmm?' Kakashi glanced at the menu. "Would you give us a moment."
                          
The man nodded then left.
                          
"Now Iruka what type of food do you like?"
                          
"Huh?"
                          
Kakashi smiled then looked at the menu. "Why don't I read off what they have and you can tell me what you want?"
                          
Iruka smiled then nodded for him to start.
                          
The man had come back and Kakashi put in there orders. Iruka decided to have something called Chicken Teriyaki with a side salad; while Kakashi had the Chicken Fajita Rollup.
                          
Iruka had finished his chicken and smiled brightly at Kakashi.
                          
"That was great! What was that called again?"
                          
"Chicken Teriyaki." Kakashi smiled.
                          
After they both finished they walked back up to the palace.
                          
"Thank you for taking me out Kakashi." Iruka did a slight bow.
                          
Kakashi just smiled and waved off his bowing. "No need to thank me, I enjoyed your company."
                          
Kakashi dropped Iruka off at his bedroom.
                          
"Iruka." Kakashi called getting Iruka's attention. "Would you mind accompanying me tomorrow?"
                          
"Oh." Iruka blushed a little. "Sure, um...where did you want to go?"
                          
Kakashi smiled. "Let's leave that a mystery." Then he turned and walked away.
                          
In the mourning Naruto woke up first. Surprising I know.
