Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.

Deidara was a new student in Ninja University and he already had a bad feeling about this place. He looks around at all the signs in front of the buildings, looking for the main office but not having any luck. "Great, I'm lost..." Deidara thought as he walked around campus. Just then a guy with an orange mask that only had one eye hole pops out of no where in front of him, the blonde had to take two steps back just to get the stranger out of his personal space. "Hi, I'm Tobi! Senpai looks lost, can Tobi help you get to wherever you're trying to go?" The guy named Tobi asked.

"Uhm... Hi... I'm Deidara, and sure I guess. I'm looking for the main office." Deidara told the hyperactive male. The other motions for Deidara to follow and he silently complies. Soon enough they got to a building that said `Main Office` next to the door. He thanks Tobi for leading him to his destination before walking into the building.

"Ah, you must be the new student, Deidara Iwa. This way, please." A man, who seemed a year or two older than Deidara, with bright orange spiky hair said before leading the blonde into the principal's office.

"Welcome, I'll make this short... Here is a map to get around the campus, a key to your new dorm room, and your schedule. You start school tomorrow, and I don't want to see you in this office for any kind of trouble... Dismissed..." The principal said, putting two pieces of paper and a key on the desk in front of Deidara. The blonde just nods his head, grabbing his items, and leaves the building. Deidara sighs, looking at the keychain that was attached to the key he was given. The keychain told him the floor and room number of his dorm which was "floor 6 room 327". He then looks at the map to find the boys dormitory on the other side of the campus. Deidara started walking though he wasn't paying attention to where he was going since he was looking at the map and accidentally bumped into someone, causing him to fall back and drop his papers and key.

"Oh, uh, sorry 'bout that..." Deidara muttered and looked up to see a guy that looked like he was the same age as the blonde. The other had bright red hair and muddy brown eyes. He looked at him before helping the blonde pick the papers up before they blew away then helps him back on his feet.

"It's all right, next time watch where you're going... You're new here, never seen you around before. I'm guessing you're on your way to the dorms?" The guy asked in a dull tone. Deidara nods his head and the red head grabs the key, looking at the keychain. "You're in the same room as me. By the way, my name's Sasori, and you are?"

"My name's Deidara Iwa, it's nice to meet you." Deidara introduced himself. "I'm surprised though... You didn't mistake me as a girl. Most people do." In truth, the blonde was very happy he wasn't called a girl yet in this school.

"That's a no brainer. You wouldn't be heading straight if you weren't a boy, it's that obvious. Though it's understandable why people mistake you as a girl. You do have long hair, ever considered cutting it?" Sasori said, smirking at Deidara.

"Hell no! I like my hair long..." Deidara yelled, giving his new roommate a slight glare.

"Well, anyway, I'll lead you to our dorm... You're luggage is already there so you don't have to worry about that." Sasori said, the smirk still on his face. He turns around and starts walking away towards the boys dormitories. Deidara sighed before following the red head.


They finally made it to the building and up to the sixth floor. Sasori unlocks the door with Deidara's key since he still had a hold of it and walks in, tossing the key onto a bed. Deidara walks in behind the red head, looking around at his new enviroment. The room was bigger than what he expected. The beds were against the walls on opposite sides with a night stand which had a lamp on it. At the foot of the beds were desks where a laptop and another lamp were sitting on it. There was one closet and a bathroom that was connected to their room. There was also a large bookshelf that stood between the two night stands, each shelf was organized in genres. "Wow, this is huge!" Deidara exclaimed, looking around as he walks up to the bookshelf.

"The desk, laptop, and bed closest to the window is your side. The bookshelf, and closet is for both of us." Sasori explained as he sat on his own bed. The blonde looks over at him and nods his head before skimming through the titles of the books. Deidara smiled when he found one of his favorite manga series, D. Gray-Man, and took out the third volume from the shelf before lying down on his bed. He starts, happily, reading the book, not noticing that a certain someone was staring at him.

It felt like hours passed when he got finished reading the book though he saw it only took him a half-hour from when he started. The blonde stands up and places the book back where he found it, not wanting to mess up how the bookshelf was organized. He turns his head to look at his new roommate, noticing he was making a puppet. "A puppet? You make puppets?" He asked but immediately shuts up when he realized he sounded rude. Nonetheless, Sasori paused to look up at the blonde.

"Yeah, it's my way of expressing art." Sasori replied casually before returning to his work on the puppet.

Deidara sighed in relief which got him a quizzical look from the red head. "Haha, I guess we do have something in common. I was afraid I'd be stuck with a roommate who hated art. I love art, though I use clay to form art and then make it explode." He said happily.

"Why make it explode? It's such a waste of beautiful masterpieces. Art is eternal beauty that should last forever, like the paintings that are in art museums." Sasori said with a frown.

"That's where you're wrong, buddy. Art is a fleeting beauty that only lasts for a moment." Deidara argued.

"Really now? Well, maybe I think you're wrong." The red head was smirking now like he found the blonde's opinion amusing.

"You got an odd opinion about art." Deidara pointed out.

"So do you." Sasori countered.

"Not really." The blonde muttered.

"Want to make a bet?" The red head asked.

"Depends, what do I have to do?" Deidara answered.

"If you can prove to me that your opinion of art is better than my opinion, I will do your homework for you for the whole year. However, if I can prove to you that my opinion is better than yours then you have to do my homework for an entire year. Ten proofs for the win. Deal?"

"Piece of cake. You got yourself a deal. Be ready to be doing my homework in a week." Deidara smiled, he normally didn't make bets but this one was interesting and got his full attention. He was going to do anything just to win this bet, especially since he didn't want to be stuck with the red head's homework along with his own.


After talking more about art, Deidara followed his roommate to the cafeteria for lunch. They sat at a table that was close to the doors. The blonde recognized two of them, the hyperactive Tobi who was waving at them when they walked into the building and the orange haired guy who was at the main office. "Hi Sasori and Senpai!" Tobi said. Deidara waved back at Tobi as Sasori ignored him.

"Well, I guess you already know Tobi... The guy next to him is Itachi Uchiha, Kisame Hoshigaki, Zetsu, Pein, Konan, Hidan, and Kakuzu. Guys this is Deidara, my new roommate." Sasori introduced, pointing to each one as he said their names.

"Welcome to Hell!" Hidan said, smiling a bit evilly. Even his violet eyes showed a bit of evilness which made Deidara shiver. Kakuzu just rolled his green pupil-less eyes at his silver haired friend. The rest laughed except for Itachi Uchiha. The raven haired young adult just held an emotionless expression on his face, not even smiling the slightest at what his friends were saying. Deidara had a feeling there were going to be issues between the two of them at some point during their "friendship".

"Don't worry, he's always like this in public. We're use to it." Sasori told the blonde, noticing that he was staring at the Uchiha. Deidara shrugged his shoulders and tuned in to the conversation that the rest of the group was paying attention to and laughing at.

A/N: You guys might have already read this though in first person. The reason I'm re-posting it is because I can't find it in my account anymore and was wondering if it somehow got deleted. :/ Might change it back to first person, unsure. Review? Arigato!
