“What is with you?” Iruka demanded rounding on Kakashi as soon as the door closed. “Why are you making such an issue with the scene today?”
“I can’t act in this scene, because I won’t be acting in it Iruka.”
Iruka’s brows furrowed. “What do you mean, you won’t be acting in it? We’re actors Kakashi. This is our job. And, surprise, surprise, what you have been doing today, out there,” he pointed to the wall, “is NOT acting.”
Kakashi hesitated for a moment, then pulled down his mask, baring his face to Iruka, feeling like he didn’t want his barrier between them when he spoke the words he was about to say.
“I don’t…damn it! Iruka, I won’t be acting out there today, because it won’t be Detective Nakamura out there okay? It’ll be me! ME! Kakashi Hatake, your lover, your boyfriend! And..” He stopped talking, and sighed, lowering his voice, the earlier agitation in it gone. “And, because of that everyone on set will know. About you and me. About our relationship.”
