Hate that I Love You

:D AMC wanted to start a DeiTobi 25 theme set, and since I'm grounded, it's a lot easier to write these than Yuruginai Shinrai. XD;;; I don't have enough time to write YS right now, so I'm just drafting these until I raise my grades. :D

As for the title of my little drabble collection, it's a popular song by Rihanna and…uh…I don't know who the other guy is…its either Neyo or Chris Brown…I'm not usually into that type of music. D: But anyway, every time I hear it, I pull out my Deidei and Tobi finger puppets (8D YES I HAVE FINGER PUPPETS. That's actually what I was planning on doing for Christmas gifts for people, so message me if you want oneX3) and sing to it.

One more thing--this drabble is AU.

"Gravity. It keeps you rooted to the ground, In space, there's not any gravity. You just kind of leave your feet and go floating around. Is that what being in love is like?"

"Sempai, I don't get this!"

Deidara sighed and rubbed his temples irritably, resisting the urge to blow his partner up. He had never had this problem with Sasori-sensei, oh no, back then he was the one who was told he was an idiot. (But that's because he was being tutored in art. Goddamn Sasori-sensei repeatedly told him that explosions weren't art. Bah. What did he know anyway?)

Funny how things change.

He leaned over his taller partner, who was sitting in a chair at a desk and pointed at the problem over his shoulder, one slender finger tapping the simple polyatomic bond repeatedly, "Look, Tobi, it is not that hard."

"Yes it is!" his partner whined, looking up at Deidara with a petulant pout.

"No it isn't, dumbass." He shook his head, his blonde ponytail flying with the motion, "Since cobalt is a metal, you have to name it as an ionic bond. So you end up with Cobalt III nitrate."

"Oh!" As a chemistry student, Tobi Uchiha wasn't the brightest. Closer to the dimmest actually. Still, he worked hard, harder than his older cousin Itachi, who was making the highest grade in the class, except for Deidara of course.

In a way, Deidara's chemistry-wired brain thought that people were like elements, atoms, and parts of those aforementioned atoms. He shook his head mildly at Tobi, who was humming to himself in glee for finally understanding the problem he had been working of. Tobi looked up and grinned, "I got it, Deidara-sempai!"

Deidara nodded, but didn't say anything else. A moment of quiet passed before he spoke up, "…You're an electron."

"A what…?"

"An electron. Bouncy, always moving from place to place." He raised a finger, emphasizing his point, "It fits you perfectly."

"Oh…" Tobi nodded a bit: Deidara wasn't sure if he understood or just pretended to. A content silence passed between the two of them, Tobi doing problems and Deidara supervising. Suddenly, the black-haired boy looked up and said, "You're a proton then."

"A proton?" he questioned, arching a delicate blonde eyebrow in the air.

He nodded enthusiastically, "Yeah! You always stay in one place, and you always make me feel good, even though you yell at me a lot. And besides…"

Tobi stood up, nearly knocking his chair over as he enveloped his sempai in a bear hug. He rested his head on top of Deidara's—when the hell did he get so tall?!—and murmured, "Opposites attract"

He nodded a bit, unable to say much more. "Guess you're right."

Seems as though he has been learning from me…

IB HAS TAKEN OVER MY BRAIN! DAMN YOU HIGHER EDUCATION!

(I actually do love Chemistry, you can ask anyone that knows me. I get all excited whenever we get something-new XD it's kind of sad.)
