"FINALLY!" Gai practically pounced on them when they arrived, cornering them like a puppy whose people had just come home and who must take him for a walk now. He was so stir crazy from just loitering outside the restaurant waiting.

He looked them both over approvingly, grinning from ear-to-ear. "You look very splendid! Both of you! I like that color, Kakashi. Did you pick it yourself?" Though Kakashi looked uncomfortable, there was just something so fitting about Obito's robes. Gai quite liked the way he looked in them.

Then he squished between them, taking each by an arm. "And I hope you are both ready for a very nice lunch on this very special day!" For his Rival's sake, Gai wouldn't shout to the world that it was Kakashi's birthday--though that information was easy enough to obtain if one tried--but that didn't stop him from declaring it an important day regardless.
