Dear classroom substitute,

Thank you for dedicating your time to my wonderful classroom for the whole week while I take the time to spend some vacation days with my adoring wife.

You'll find them to be rather an ambitious and energetic bunch, but also ready to learn (with the exception of few). Naruto will be the loudest, and daring student, but the other students are collectively good students, so there won't be any large issues.

Please look at the other folders I have for you behind this letter for each day's academic plan and daily schedule. These will last you all five days at Konoha Middle School in my classroom.

I couldn't thank you enough for being my long term substitute. I look forward to hearing good news from all five days!

Sincerely,

Iruka Sensei

The two of you held hands, getting out of the personal driver that drove you from the air port.For a whole week, he and you were vacationing to Hakone, Japan, known for not only its view of Mountain Fuji, but also its lovely national park and museums. 

"Go ahead and check us in, I'll go ahead and get the bags and suitcases," Iruka told you quickly, pecking your cheek before walking over to the propped open trunk. "I'll come back to help you, it's a lot of bags!" you told him with a small smile, walking into the luxury apartment studio you guys were staying in. 

The man at the front desk wore glasses and a button nose, looking up at you with a smile. "Hello, are you checking in?" he asked. You gave all the information you needed to, and paid as Iruka came in with many bags in his arms and hands. "I said I was going to pay Sweetie!" he told you, pouting the slightest while you walked up to him. "Don't worry about it~" You grabbed some of the bags from him, walking over to the elevator. 

Waiting next to your husband, you looked over at him. "So, do you know who the substitute is?" you asked him.

 Ever since the two of you had left, you could tell something was extremely bothering him. He barely slept on the flight, staring out the window with his hands in tight fists.

 "Not really, but I'm sure the substitute is great. I'm worried about my students, and if they misbehave or get confused on a lesson. A-After all, five lesson plans must be a lot for the sub. I hope they don't mind teaching a bit." he told you, walking into the elevator after you did. Pressing the button for the highest level, you leaned on his shoulder to comfort him. 

Closing your eyes, you could feel his gentle pulse from his neck. "Well I'm sure they brought the best sub for you, honey. There's nothing to worry about. After all, that's why we're on vacation, right? To get some relief?" you said to him softly. "I know, I know...but this is my first and only absence this year!" he whined. 

 The doors opened and you two walked over to the door. "Well I think you need a stroll around the city to let loose a bit," you told him, opening the door. The view was beautiful, with a large window welcoming the two of you to a view of the whole city, including some of the national park. Most importantly: Mount. Fuji. You couldn't help but stare in awe next to Iruka. 

He was the first to snap out of it, walking to the bedroom with some of the suitcases. "Let's get on with the day!" Iruka chirped. 

>>>>*

Walking around near sunset, the two of you were eating at a hometown restaurant near a lake. Taking photos, eating, laughing, and talking, the two of you were filling your hearts and bellies with good memories. "Did I tell you about the time Naruto stole my plastic knife and pretended to have a sword fight with Sasuke?" he said, the two of you on the subject of random things. Swallowing your share of the desert you guys ordered, you pursed your lips. "I remember most of it, but repeat it again just in case I forgot." you said. 

Iruka's tan face lit up as he could talk about his class. "So I'm speaking with Kakashi on terms of the students going to detention, and all of a sudden he tells me to turn around. Apparently, Naruto had took my knife next to my salad you packed for me and was swinging towards Sasuke, who pulled out his pencil and defended himself! I was a bit mad at the time, but with Kakashi chuckling in the background I had to stop the two before they hurt themselves or each other! They were going to detention nonetheless, but it added an extra lunch detention for the two. Now that I can look back and reflect, I have to admit it was kind of funny when Naruto and him were playing around."

Laughing quietly, you watched as he reached for another bite, a look in his eyes that was the opposite from his cheerful expression earlier. Allowing him to finish it, you stood up while he paid for the bill and tip. Iruka grabbed your hand firmly, leading the two of you out. 

"So...what's next?" he asked you. "Well, it's getting pretty dark, so why don't we go to Gotemba and see what clothes they have, hm?" you asked him, who nodded in agreement as you two checked the basic map of the city. Noticing it was across town, you recommended taking a train there. 

After ten long minutes, you two had gotten to the train station. It would take while for the next one to come, so you two sat on a bench while waiting in the open station. You got on your phone to edit some of the photos, meanwhile Iruka did the same. However, you noticed he put his phone up to his ear. 

"Hey, Kakashi San! Anything from my classroom?" you heard him say, your eyes glancing at over to him. "Ah...what a relief! Oh, Naruto runs in the hallways all the time, it helps release anty energy he still has after recess. Akamaru barks once in awhile, so I hope the sub doesn't mind...yep...H-Honey!-"

You grabbed the phone, putting it next to your ear. "Oh! Y/n, how is the trip so far? Has Iruka been talking about only his students?" Kakashi hummed into the phone while you glared at Iruka. "Yes, but hopefully he'll relax a bit more. Don't bother answering his calls anymore this week, this type of worrying isn't normal. Do you understand?" you told him, Iruka gulping with an nervous expression. 

Kakashi paused on the phone. "You're the boss! Make sure you help him loose all that tension tonight~" he told you in a suggestive tone, hanging up to your blushing face. Giving the phone back to him, you couldn't help but let out a chuckle. "Iruka, you're the sweetest man I've ever met...sometimes a bit too sweet, but that's what makes you my favorite." you told him as he put his phone away, laughing nervously as you leaned onto him. 

He gave you a kiss on the head, looking over at the sun falling in front of the two of you. 

>>>>*

Day three. 

After a quick shower from the morning activities in bed, Iruka was making breakfast for the two of you. Meanwhile, you read a book at the small dining table, a small smile plastered on your face. The rest of the day had been planned out, including going to the hot springs and walking through the forest trails of Hakune. 

His phone dinged all of a sudden, the two of you glancing at it. "I'll open it after I finish cooking. How's your book?" Iruka asked you, lowering the heat of the stove as the smell from his cooking wafted into your nose. "Pretty good, so far the characters are really deep and well thought out." you told him, feeling the drool building up as you came back to reality. 

Soon enough he finished plating and serving the food at the small dining table, sitting across from you as he opened his phone. You watched as his eyes widened, almost falling out the chair as he looked at it. "Woah, Iruka, what is it?!" you asked, raising an eyebrow as you were grabbing a bite of your food. 

His hand turned the phone for you to see that his students held a large poster that said "See you soon!" in a photo. "Awe~..." you said in a muffle tone, Iruka looking at it again as he smiled sheepishly. "I've only been gone for a few days, but to them it must feel like forever." Iruka told you, putting his phone away. 

Swallowing your food, you smiled back. "You must be dying by now to go back and see your students." you said, feeling a slight pain in your heart. It was true you were the slightest bit jealous of the students and how Iruka talked about them so often, but you knew he only had the purest intentions. 

Iruka grabbed your feel hand. "Not yet. At first, yes, but now that I'm here in the present with you, they can live a few more days without me. I know I haven't been focusing on you a lot this vacation, but I truly am glad we were able to do this, Y/n. I love you more than I could love my students." he told you, his thumb caressing the skin of your hand. Turning the slightest red, you smiled. 

"Hm..prove it." you jokingly told him, his smile turning to a smirk. He stood up from his seat and leaned over, locking his lips with yours. It was a long, but light hearted kiss before he parted, his hands by then cupping your face without you realizing.

 "Does that prove it?" Iruka asked you. You nodded, laughing a bit before the two of you continued breakfast. 

For the rest of vacation, everything went smooth and calm. 

>>>>*

It was finally the start of the following week, Sakura and Ino gossiping about rumors that Iruka had decided to run away from them because of how crazy some of the students were. 

"W-Why would he abandon us?! We're the best students of this school!" Naruto huffed, "We're the oldest in the school too, we're not little kids from sixth grade anymore!"

Shikamaru had his head down, feeling a small headache form as all the students were waiting for Iruka Sensei to show up. "He's coming back to day, idiots..." he mumbled, the angsty part of him radiating off in annoyance of them.

Suddenly, the door had clicked, and everyone got silent. Iruka slowly opened the door, poking his head in. 

"SENSEIIIIIIIIII!"

Naruto jumped up and hugged his teacher tightly, looking up at him. "Morning, Naruto!" Iruka softly exclaimed, the hug being released. "We all thought you were running away from us!" Naruto said, some of the other students nodding. 

Giving off a scolding expression, Iruka walked over to his desk. "Didn't I and the substitute constantly remind you all that I was going on vacation with my wife? " he asked them. "Where?" Saukra asked him, her eyes sparkling at the mention of hearing about the teacher's significant other. 

"Well, we went quite far and decided on going to Hakone. She and I were really excited, and got to see a lot of fascinating stuff. I can show some photos of our vacation if you'd like before class starts, and talk about what we did...."

His secret, favorite student glared at Iruka. "All you do is talk about your amazing wife, Sensei!" Naruto whined to him. 

Chuckling, Iruka shrugged him off. "Well, she is my everything..." he said, pulling up the images on his phone. 

You were watching from the door, giggling at him as you held his surprise breakfast he forgot to take to work. 

He was your favorite, too.
