Title: Reverie and Reality
Summary: In which Hidan, Deidara, Itachi, and Sasori bet that Pein doesn't have the balls to make Konan fall in love with him. "I think I'm in too deep. I can't get out." "Don't worry. I got a shovel." Hey it's only high school. A/U.
A/N: BLAH!
Disclaimer: I have never stolen anything! :D
To have you by my side is enough to assure me that I'm doomed.

All was well in Konoha Academy. Well, it had been well until...
"So, you're gay right?"
Coffee splattered across Deidara's face as he groaned in annoyance. He had asked Pein, who was having his morning coffee, a question he thought he would never be asked. They were situated in the senior boys' lounge when this fiasco occurred. Thankfully, for Pein, it had only been him and the blonde who had occupied the spacious room.
"What the hell happened?" Sasori asked as he came in the room with the ever stoic faced Uchiha on his side.
The ever stoic pair stared at Deidara's wet face. They were forced to hold back a chuckle when the blonde glared daggers at them. The two proceeded two sit on a couch opposite from the other pair. Just as they've all settled, a silver haired man came in muttering curses under his breath.
"Holy crap, what the hell's with your face, idiot?" Hidan asked bluntly as he took a chair and stared at the groaning Deidara.
"Shut up." the blond glared.
Seemingly unaffected, the ever so curious bad mouthed male interrogated the ginger haired man who looked like he had experienced death. Hidan stared disgustingly at the spilled coffee on Pein's mouth but ignored it after a few seconds.
"What the hell's wrong with you, Pein?" he raised a brow.
Much to everyone's dismay, the multi-pierced man seemed oblivious to everything around him. Pein was so caught up in his thoughts that he only snapped back to reality when somebody farted on his face, courtesy of Hidan, of course. The gas, by the way, reeked like hell.
"Well done, Hidan." Itachi commented.
"How immature, yet, it seems to have done the trick." Sasori added.
"Gahh! Hidan!" Pein yelled at the gaseous criminal as he covered his nose and swatted the air.
"What?" Hidan ignored the man.
"What the hell did you eat? It reeks of chili!" Deidara exclaimed as he covered his nose.
"Whatever." the silver haired man rolled his eyes.
"What do you want?" Pein growled as he glared at the offender.
"Well, Pein, it seemed that you were in a state of shock and Deidara, here, is covered in coffee that you've obviously attempted to drink." Itachi simply stated.
"We wanted to know what had happened. Surely, Deidara must've told you something interesting." the red head glanced at the disturbed blonde.
"I-I'm not telling!" Pein childishly folded his arms in refusal and turned his head to the right to avoid any eye contact.
"Hn."
"Deidara." Itachi stared at the blonde.
"Well, I was asking Pein if he was-" just as he was about to finish his sentence, Pein covered the artist's mouth and proceeded to strangle him.
Unfortunately, for Pein that is, it was easy for Sasori and Itachi two connect two and two together. The genious pair looked at each other and nodded.
"He asked if you were gay, huh?" Itachi stated flatly.
"Well?" Sasori raised a brow at the ginger haired man who had refrained from hurting his captive.
"Fine. Yes, he did." He answered as he let go of Deidara who was choking on the floor.
All ignored the young artist and proceeded with the topic at hand.
"So, are you gay or are you not?"
"Of course I'm not!" Pein yelled at the three.
"Geez! No need to fucking shout." Hidan commented.
A little relieved, Pein sat back lousily on his chair, glad that the topic could now be shoved off. He was particularly sensitive about his sexual orientation and he didn't want anyone asking him about that.
"Good." the Uchiha smirked.
"And why is that, Itachi?" Pein raised an annoyed brow.
"It means, we could move along with the bet." Sasori answered as a light smirk crept on his face.
"Bet? What bet?" Pein was somewhat curious yet afraid at the same time.
This bet was for sure gonna be bad. Pein knew that when it came to bets, Hidan, Sasori, Itachi and possibly Deidara would come up with some sick and retarded situation and that he, unfortunately, would lose. He knew that because he had spent his childhood with them.
"I'm not agreeing to any of your ridiculous games." He furrowed his eyebrows at the three.
"Yes you are." Sasori smirked even wider.
"No I'm not."
"But then you'd just be saying that you're gay." Itachi snickered.
"What does this have to do with my sexuality?" Pein groaned.
"This bet sort of involves a member of the female species..." Sasori explained.
"Female? Who?" asked the ginger haired man (A/N: I almost wrote gingerbread man here).
"The newbie. She's transferring tomorrow. She's about our age. She's infamous for being a former yankee." Itachi said.
"Yankee, huh?" Pein smirked. "But what's in it for me?"
"Your dignity. And 100 dollars." Sasori answered.
"What the fuck? I thought it was only 5 dollars?" Hidan yelled.
"It was. For us. You have to pay him 85." Itachi smirked.
"HOLY FUCK! I HOPE YOU GUYS DIE!" Hidan stormed out of the room.
"Hn."
"He's still paying."
"So..." Pein started. "...what now? What do you want me to do?"
"You're pathetically oblivious, Pein." Itachi stated as Sasori nodded in agreement.
The insulted man groaned.
"We want you to make her fall in love with you." Deidara spoke.
"And how would that benefit you?"
"Well, you see, this chick ain't what she appears to be."
"What do you mean?"
"She's loaded. I mean, her family's full of freaks but she got a lot of money."
"And you want her to become my sugar mommy...?"
"No."
"Well then, what?"
"We just want you to have a girlfriend."
"A rich freaky girlfriend?"
"Yes."
"You guys suck."
"We bet that you don't have the balls to make her fall in love with you."
"If that's the case then, bring it on."
