Summary:Prompt/Scenario: #15 by manekineko77: Inspired by an image by Sidoro. High-school AU, Iruka is the boss of the local school gang (nothing malicious, just cool kids that skip classes, act mighty and clash with other gangs, but do not really bother ordinary pupils and only exasperate the teachers. Kakashi is a book-worm, a dweeb, with excellent marks but little else going for him in his high-school years… and a huge, silent and hopeless crush on Iruka. Which, of course, turns to be not so hopeless after all.
Contains: Copious amounts of dialogue
