-Deidara's P.O.V.-
Faster... I had to run faster. If I could run faster, I could escape. But I couldn't. It was pouring rain, my clothes were ripped. The cuts I had hurt really bad. Tears were clouding my vision, but I had to keep going. I dodged trees and hopped over logs before running out of the long scary forest.
What do they want with me? What did I do wrong? Was it because I took food? Thoughts rushed through my head as I ran across the opening. I bet they were gaining on me. After all, I was a lot smaller than them. I tripped over a rock and fell on my face. I scrambled to get up, slipping a few times because of the wet grass.
It was so cold... I continued running, as the rain kept coming down harder and harder. I could barely see. Maybe they couldn't see either! I was getting tired and I was slowing down. I couldn't go on much longer. I slipped on the wet grass again and fell, hitting my head on something hard.
This is the end... I thought, as the icy rain numbed my wounds down to just a sting. The last thing I heard were footsteps before I passed out.
What... What is this warmth...? Am I dead and in heaven or something? No... They captured me! I shot up and every inch of me started hurting. I winced at the pain, then realized I was in a bed. The warmth I felt was this huge fluffy blanket! But wait, why was I here? I thought I was captured... I looked around to see if I was in a cell or something like that, but it was a normal room. I didn't understand. Oh I know... The door is locked... I thought.
I slowly stood, fighting through the pain, and walked cautiously toward the door. Any creak made me stop dead. I bit my lip as I grabbed the door handle and twisted. It wasn't locked. I opened the door and looked out. There wasn't anyone in sight. Freedom! I step out, cringing every time the floor creaked. My wounds hurt so badly... Wait a minute... My wounds were treated?! Now I was really confused. I shook my head and proceeded forward.
I walked past another door, which was open a few inches. I couldn't help it, my curiosity took over and I backed back up. I peered into the room. Are those dolls? That tool looks fancy. What's under that sheet? I can't see what's on the table... All these thoughts poured into my mind. I was considering going in there, when the door slammed shut and someone grabbed me by the shoulder. I yelped out of fright and pain and started to tremble.
"You should be resting." A calm voice said from behind. The hand moved off my shoulder and I slowly turned around. I jumped and backed up, pressing my back to the door. "I'm not going to hurt you." The guy said, noticing my fear. He was a lot taller than me, and had dull light brown eyes. His hair was red and he wasn't wearing a shirt... "I took care of your wounds, but you should rest a bit longer." He said. "If you are hungry, I'll fix you something."
I just stared at him, not knowing what to say. I didn't know him, I didn't know where I was, I wanted to leave... But at the same time, I wanted to stay. "What's your name, kid?" Should I really tell him...? No... Yes...? "You don't talk much, do you? You mumbled a lot in your sleep though." I look up at the stranger. "How long was I asleep? Un" "Two days." My eyes widened in shock. "Wh-why did you help me...? Un" "At first, I wasn't going to. But, for some reason, I couldn't leave you out in the rain to die." "... Who are you? Un" "If I tell you my name, you have to tell me yours." "Fine. Un" "Sasori. Akasuna no Sasori." "Sasori of the red sand...? Un" "Yes, now your name." "... Deidara. Just Deidara. Un"
"Well, Deidara, are you hungry? Thirsty?" I slowly nodded. "Alright, I'll fix you something. After you eat, you need to rest more." "Um..." "Hmn?" "Wh... Wh-where's the... Bathroom? Un" I saw the corners of Sasori's mouth go up. "It's not funny... Un" I mumbled. "I didn't say it was. It's farther down the hall that way, door on the left." He replied. I nodded and I went down the hall, and into the bathroom. I locked the door behind me.
-Sasori's P.O.V.-
I watched the young blond go down the hall. I honestly don't know why I saved him... I just couldn't leave him, it wasn't right. But I have a lot more questions for him. I sighed and went to the kitchen. I put a pot on the stove and opened a can of soup, pouring the contents into the pot. I turned the stove on and opened the fridge. I pulled out some juice and poured it into a cup for the kid.
This house wasn't quite large, the kitchen was right off the living space. I walked to the living room and sat in a chair, just as Deidara walked over. "Your food is heating up. Your juice is on the counter." The kid looked toward the cup, then back at me. I picked up a book and pretended to ignore his gaze. He picked up the cup and looked in it. "Just drink it, it's not poison..." I said, a bit too dryly. Deidara coughed a few times, then drank the juice.
I put the book down and stood, walking over to him. I place the back of my hand on his forehead, startling him, making him jump and drop the cup. I sighed, "You have a fever. Go lay down on the couch over there until your food is ready. While you're eating, I'll go get some medicine and tea.
"You're going to leave me all alone? Why do I need medicine? Un" "How long was it raining when you were out there?" I asked, planning to answer his question after mine got answered. "I don't know... Pretty long I guess. Un" "Well, it's possible you caught something. Why were you in the middle of nowhere in the first place?" Deidara looked down and didn't answer. I decided it was best to leave that matter alone and checked the soup. It was the right temperature, so I poured it in a bowl and handed it to Deidara.
I walked past him and went down the hall to my room. I put on a shirt, grabbed some scrolls, and walked out. Deidara kept staring at me with a pitiful look on his face. I ignored him and walked out the front door, making sure to lock it so no one could get in freely. Deidara could easily get out though. I sighed while walking in the direction of the nearest town. What am I going to do? I thought. I can't take care of this kid... Just until he's better. Then he's on his own.
-Deidara's P.O.V.-
Why did he have to leave me all alone? Why couldn't he stay? I didn't need medicine! Or tea! I was fine! I sneezed, nearly dropping the bowl of soup he gave me. I put it on the counter and climbed up onto the stool that was there. The soup didn't look tasty... But I was hungry. I took a spoonful and hesitated before shoving it into my mouth and swallowing quickly. Hey, it was actually pretty good! I ate it quickly and before I knew it, it was gone. I whined, I wanted more! I hopped off the stool and placed the bowl in the sink. I turned on the water and washed, dried, and put away the bowl, spoon, and cup I dropped.
Now was my chance to escape. I only needed a shirt... Why did I have pants on that are my size but no shirt?! Maybe because of the bandages... Oh well. I went down the hall to where I saw Sasori enter and looked around. Wow, he's pretty tidy... I thought. I spotted a dresser and dug around in it. I pulled out a sweat-coat. It was big, but it would do. I put it on and was about to walk out when I spotted a few weapons.
I grabbed two kunai and walked out, closing the door behind me. I felt sorry not being able to say thank-you and goodbye... And of course taking some of Sasori's stuff, but it was too late. I opened the backdoor and walked out, not even bothering to close the door. I started running. I bet I could make it pretty far before Sasori came back. I sneezed again, then coughed. Maybe I was sick... But I didn't care. I found a path and slowed down to a walk.
I don't know how long I was walking, but I eventually made it to a town. Maybe I could find some food here. Or find a way to earn some money. Then someone called my name. My breath hitched. The voice was familiar. I forgot he was getting medicine! I had no time to lose. I started running.
-Sasori's P.O.V.-
As I turned around from the tea shop, I saw Deidara walking among a small crowd. What was he doing here? "Deidara!" I called out, hoping he would hear my. He did. But he started running. What was he doing? Where was he going? I decided to chase him. I kept calling him. I was gaining on him, then he tripped and fell. I caught up and bent down, "Deidara, what are you doing?" He sat up, tears streaming down his face, "SHUT UP! UN" He yelled. I was completely taken back by this.
"WE BOTH DON'T KNOW WHY YOU HELPED ME! BUT WHEN I'M BETTER YOU'LL JUST LEAVE ME ANYWAYS! LET ME GO WHILE I'M AHEAD BEFORE I GET ANY SORT OF BOND WITH YOU! UN" He sobbed. How did he know what I was going to do...? I sighed, "Look... If you want to leave, leave. You're right, I am a horrible person. You're better off not having anything to do with me."
I stood and turned. "Good luck, stay safe." I walked away from the sobbing child. I looked down at the bags I held. "Tch..." I walked out of the town and headed back to my small house. That was the last time I'd see Deidara, and that was fine with me. It wouldn't benefit either of us if he stayed. I made it home and put the bags on the counter. I took my shirt off and tossed it aside, heading to my room. I flopped onto my bed and went to sleep.
A few hours later, I woke up to a knocking sound. I groaned and turned over to look at the clock. "Ugh!" I stood up and went to the front door, with a kunai. I opened to see the kid standing there. "... What do you want, brat?" Deidara looked down at his feet. I could tell I had just made him feel unwanted. "I... I left your backdoor open... Un" "Is that all? Because it's 3am and I was sleeping." "I-I'm sorry... But I was thinking while looking for my own place to sleep. We could help each other. Un" "... What?"
"You are a good person at heart. But you're all alone, right? Un" I didn't answer. "I'm all alone too... But, if we're with each other, we both won't be all alone anymore. It's like we're made to be together. We could be friends. Un" "Why would you think a twenty year old like me want to be friends with a however many years old like you?" "I'm nine... Un" He mumbled. "It was just a suggestion, I don't like being alone. So you probably don't like being alone either. Sorry for bothering you. Un" He turned around to leave.
I sighed, "Wait." He looked at me. "You're right, I don't like it. I suppose you can stay. Maybe we can benefit each other. We'll see." His face lit up and he quickly walked inside. "Thank-you Sasori. Un" "No problem... Now go rest, tomorrow will be a big day." "Huh?" "If you are going to stay with me, you are going to travel with me." "I can travel with you?" He asked, his blue eyes sparkling. "Yes." I replied. "I promise." This was only the beginning...
You promised...
Yea, that chapter ending was predictable, I hate it too. I don't intend for there to be a lot of chapters. It's just something I'm doing for fun~ I hope you enjoy it! Tell me what you think? P.O.V. stands for Point Of View
