Take My Heart

Chapter 1: Hatred revealed

"For the last time Tobi, shut up!"
Deidara would exclaim to the everso annoying companion.
"But Deidara-sempai.. I wanted to spend some quality time with you!"
The pestimistic Tobi would whine.
"Hey Tobi! I think I hear Leader calling for you."
The blonde would trick the naive and sad excuse for an Akatsuki member. Waiting patiently now for the one before him to leave his sights.
"Really?
Wonder why Tobi couldn't hear him?"
Tobi would ask, tilting his head in wonder. Turning about and heading in the direction of the Leader's room, skipping merrily down the hall. Once the male was out of Deidara's sight, he would quickly flee for his own room. Though once inside, he would lock the door tightly behind him. Coming to a quick pause in surprise when hearing a familiar voice.
"Oh, hey Sempai!",
Tobi would be standing there dumbfounded by the other's sudden appearance in their room.
"Turned out that Leader-sama didn't need to talk to me after all. Must be losing your hearing, Sempai."
"Come here Tobi.
I have a surprise for you."
Deidara would motion for the male to approach.
"But, usually when Deidara-sempai has a surprise for Tobi, Tobi gets hurt.."
The brunette would whine once again to the younger of the two. With that said, Tobi would make an exit out of their room. Fleeing helplessly down the hall and seeing Zetsu just a few feet away. Coming to an immediate halt just a couple of inches from the plant-like guy.
"Hello there, Zetsy-san!"
Tobi would wave and greet frantically to the other; forgetting all about why he was running and who from.
". . . Why were you running, Tobi-san?"
Zetsu enquired curiously.
"Running? Why was Tobi running?"
Tobi's head would cock to the side in question to himself.
"Tobi really doesn't know why.."
Zetsu would point in the direction behind the confused brunette. Tobi would look in the direction Zetsu was pointing a panic, Tobi immediately reacted by looping his arms about Zetsu's waist squeezing tightly.
"Help! Deidara-sempai wants to kill Tobi...and.. and...KILL TOBI!"
Burying his face into the other's chest and whining incoherent murmurs.
". . .Ummm.. okay?"
Eyes would be wide from shock and embarassment. Cheeks would take on a pinkish tint to them in shyness. Shifting uncomfortably within the arms, soon managing to worm free. Stepping before the other as though planning on protecting the one in danger.
Screeching to a stop a ways infront of the two, and face reflecting pure fear.
"That's just like you, Tobi, going and running behind someone more experienced in fighting than you."
Zetsu's expression would change to a more fearsome fixation. If a fight was what Deidara wanted, then a fight would be delivered.
Deidara would then stand his ground, though knowing what his limitations were, or so he thought.
"Zetsu, why are you protecting something as worthless as Tobi? I mean, he's a reject, clearly."
"D'aw, Tobi knows Sempai doesn't mean what he's saying."
His voice would give a soft innocent tone.
Snarling at the whining one and loathing how he wasn't able to make Tobi understand his true feelings towards him.
"Tobi, are you seriously that stupid? I hate you! I have never in my life hated anything more than I do you!"
A concealed cry and whimper could be heard from behind the mask. Tobi could feel his heart breaking into pieces inside his chest. 'Is that really how Sempai feels towards Tobi..? Or.. is he only hiding his feelings because we're here with Zetsy?' His hands would move to grasp ahold of the defending male's shirt, as though trying to convince himself he wasn't completely alone.

Zetsu stayed silent letting his eyes do the talking. Orbs keeping a fixated deadly stare upon the blonde's face. Deidara would soon force his legs to move and allow him to approach the warning protector. Once this move was executed, Zetsu quickly advanced forward. His left hand balling into a tight fist as it collided into the threatening male's face. Making sure to punch hard enough to send the other back in a warning manner. Spiraling backwards and falling upon the floor. Crawling in a fit of stumbles, Deidara would retreat back to his room where he would await Tobi in silence.
Moving back around the defender and turning to face Zetsu in shock. Peering towards the other's face and finding himself at loss for words.
"Zetsy-san...",
a dramatic pause would be inserted,
"..you're Tobi's hero!"
Smiling behind his orange mask and soon tackling the plant-like would encircle about the other's neck and hugging onto him tightly, completely clueless to what the other Akatsuki members might think or do if they were seen in such a position. Zetsu's embarassment would start taking over his personality. The plant that surrounds his head would slowly start closing the gap, hiding his face from view. Tobi quickly unwrapped his arms from about Zetsu's neck in response, not wanting them to get chopped there, staring at the concealing plant that hid the male's face from him, blinking curiously before poking at it.
"Why are you hiding from Tobi, Zetsy-san?",
he enquired and offering another prod of curiosity.
". . . . . It.. is nothing, just... not used to.. physical contact.. Nothing against you.."
Zetsu would reassure the brunette, not wanting to sadden him anymore than what he already was.
"Tobi understands!",
actually Tobi was completely clueless about their current conversation. Shrugging his shoulders and happily humming to himself a song he had heard previously. "Take my heeeart.. my love is like the sea in your eyes.."
Tobi's humming would slowly form into light singing, even making the sounds inbetween words. His body would sway from side to side in amusement to his own music, being like a portable radio.
Finally, Zetsu would overcome his embarassment and uncover his face from its current hiding. Blinking slowly to the dancing Tobi infront of him. Shaking his head and remaining completely silent, turning to venture back to his own room. CAUGHT! Tobi had ahold of his arm and forcing him around to face him once more. By this time, Kisame would be walking down the hall. His radio on and in his right arm. Volume turned up to a blast and bobbing his head to the beat pouring from the speakers. Soon Tobi had ahold of both of Zetsu's hands, forcing him into a swaying dance move.
"You and me.. baby ain't nothing but mammals, so let's do it like they do on the Discovery Channel. You and me.. baby ain't nothing but mammals, so let's do it like they do on the Discovery Channel."
Tobi's voice could be heard throughout the Akatsuki hide-out. Zetsu's face would be burning with embarassment, but going along with it, just to keep the other happy.
