somewhere kakashi is shaking his head going "this was not what I told you to do"

[morningpeacock]

Where: Obito's Apartment
When: Feb 10, evening (6:30pm-ish assuming Obito is on time)
Notes: NSFW plurk inspired naked scarf dancing, so here's your birthday stripper, Obito. Already undressed.




If Gai felt truly foolish about this, he would never have agreed.

Still, standing in Obito's bedroom with nothing but a scarf thrown over his shoulders and another tied at his waist, Gai wondered if Obito was going to laugh at him. Maybe the waist scarf was a little too much.

What exactly was proper protocol for naked scarf dances?

He had been practicing a routine (fully clothed, of course) all day yesterday, and he was quite happy with it! Obito should be thrilled! Plus, there was dinner (which they would prepare together, but Gai was certain Obito would very much enjoy) and there would be dessert, and then they could relax and spend the evening together! It would be the best birthday Obito had had in a long time, surely! That was not overconfidence speaking!

Gai waited until he heard the door close behind Obito before stepping into the doorway between the livingroom and the bedroom. He grinned at him, tossed a tail of the scarf over on shoulder dramatically, then posed with his hands on his hips. "Happy Birthday, my Hokage."

"Now you are flattering!" He grinned and twirled a little, letting the scarf wrap twirl him, in, then out again, swaying and shaking his hips. He tossed the scarf up, bending over to catch it before the cascading fabric hit the ground, though the movement mostly just affording Obito a nice view of Gai's back and backside. He pulled the other scarf from around his neck and spun them around him, letting the fabric wrap his own body before slowly pulling it free.

[thebestuchiha]

One thing that never failed to mesmerise him about Gai was that when he was in motion, he was always graceful. It wasn't something that people would typically associate with the man, but it was something he never intended to forget.

He resisted the urge to reach out and touch, because he didn't want to interrupt him, but he definitely wasn't going to take his eyes off him.

"It's not hard to be."

[morningpeacock]

Despite their history together, it was still such a new thrill to be that appealing, and he didn't think he would ever tire of being looked at like that. He would revel in that flattery, and maybe got a little more showy because of it.

He did a pirouette before falling back into a graceful arch backwards and, after equally smooth return upright, took another spin. Gai had planned the dance carefully for Obito's living-space, and so, though it was tempting to make a very showy leap, a cartwheel or two, and some other dramatic shows of flexibility, he kept his leap short, spinning back around and extending his leg up, toe pointed. He brought the leg all the way up, showing off the muscle-tone and flexibility as the scarves spun and waved.

[thebestuchiha]

He could practically feel his mind spinning off into very creative uses of said flexibility, and he shifted in his seat, squirming around to another position and taking a deep breath. Right then. The goal was not to jump Gai.

He knew the man, he probably put a whole lot of work into this, no interrupting. Still, he sat on his hands.

[morningpeacock]

Gai noticed the squirming, even if he didn't know it's meaning. The scarves drooped a bit as he stopped waving them steadily, but the pose was not uncomfortable, so he held it, leg still up over his head. Balance practice, if not showmanship. "You are not bored, are you?"

[thebestuchiha]

He immediately felt all his blood go south as Gai just.... stayed like that. "Nuh uh. Not even a little."

[morningpeacock]

He tilted his head and regarded Obito carefully. He looked pale..er than usual. "If you are sure! I am almost done!" Since Obito seemed to be waiting for him to continue, Gai did so. He gave a little kick to his leg and then lowered it, spinning again and twirling the scarves as he did a little footwork. Gai kicked his leg out into a low back-bend and then, after a brief set-up, leapt into a split kick that very nearly collided with Obito's door (ah, oops).

He gave a half-sheepish grin and twirled a few more times back to the center of the room, almost dizzyingly fast, before coming to a stop, the last spin bringing him to his knees at Obito's feet. That was improvised, and now he draped the scarves over Obito's shoulders, pulling him down by the tails of the scarves to kiss Obito on the tip of his nose.

[thebestuchiha]

He drew in a shaky breath, and sensing the end of the show, freed his hands to tangle in Gai's hair. "Perfect. Absolutely perfect."

He leaned in to kiss him on the next breath, holding him close as he did so.

[morningpeacock]

Gai gave a little chuckle that was lost into the kiss. He steadied himself with a hand on Obito's, leaning up to kiss him back deeply. When he set out to do the dance, he had hoped for applause. This was better than a standing ovation. Obito made it tempting to put on performances more often.

[thebestuchiha]

He lingered over the kiss, practically breathing him in before finally lifting away from it to smile at him. "Perfect."

[morningpeacock]

"Thank you. I am glad you enjoyed it. I wanted to--since you suggested it and--uh..." The more he thought about it, though, the deeper his blush became. He smiled. "Are you hungry for dinner? We could make dinner now, if you like!"

[thebestuchiha]

He pressed more kisses over his face, on his cheeks, his nose, his forehead. "Let me cover you up first. Don't wanna risk burning anything."

[morningpeacock]

"I could just put on clothing--" It was barely a protest, though, and was interrupted by his laughter at all the kisses. "I did not realize the show would be this big of a hit!" He tilted his head, trying to catch Obito's kisses with his lips instead.

[thebestuchiha]

"No clothing." Then he dipped his head to kiss him again, finally easing his hold off his hair as he started to ease back to sit up. "I have a better idea."

[morningpeacock]

Gai leaned up, resting his arms on Obito's lap. "Considering the success of your ideas, I am open to suggestions."

[thebestuchiha]

He lifted Gai's hand up to his lips and nuzzled the back of it. "To my room then."

[morningpeacock]

"Alright." Gai nodded and stood, taking Obito's hand and helping him up.

[thebestuchiha]

He went easily with the tug, and ran his other hand down Gai's chest for a moment before turning and heading into his room, pulling Gai along behind him as he moved toward his dresser.

[morningpeacock]

Gai came along in a happy sort of daze, skin still tingly from the touch and mind wandering away from dinner as he stepped into Obito's room. He wasn't sure he would fit into Obito's clothing, but he wasn't going to argue with letting Obito dress him.

[thebestuchiha]

Obito sized him up for a moment, then leaned down, pulling open the scarf drawer and pulling one out before finally releasing his hand. He met his gaze as he looped it around his waist and tied it there. Then he leaned down to get another.

[morningpeacock]

Gai raised a brow as he watched Obito tie a scarf around him. This would hardly protect him from anything, let alone a kitchen burn. But...Obito's ideas were good ones, and that look was enough to make Gai agree to almost anything. As Obito bent over to find another scarf, he took a moment to appreciate the view, belatedly bringing a hand up to touch...then, before it could, withdrawing the hand quickly when Obito stood.

[thebestuchiha]

He had flipped several over his shoulder while he was down there, and when he stood, he started some kind of elaborate net of them up Gai's torso, starting with a the two Gai had been using earlier. He was very focused on the matter, as he seemed fully intent on making sure they were just so.

[morningpeacock]

Gai put his arms out, out of the way of Obito's handiwork and watched him, fascinated by Obito's nimble fingers and concentration more than the actual assembly or the product itself. Though that didn't stop him from taking notice of what Obito seemed to be doing.

"Are you ...weaving them onto me?" He frowned down at the garment Obito was assembling, unsure what to make of it, but the effort was certainly admirable and the result was so far fascinating.

[thebestuchiha]

He flashed him a grin, then went back to it, making something of an apron first before kneeling down to start down to make sure his groin was shielded similarly.

[morningpeacock]

Gai blushed a deep red as Obito moved lower. "I hope you do not plan to reuse these for another village activity. I do not think I can think of them the same way again."
