A/N: This is my first ever yaoi based story, hope you enjoy it.
~Chapter 1: The New Mission~
Deidara woke up to the sound of a hair dyer going on, "Oh my...why does he have to do this so early in the morning!" He grunted as he turned over and put a pillow over his head to help muffle the sound. He laid there but couldn't really go back to sleep, he was on a mission with this guy again. Deep down he really hated the fact that he had to be paired with him again. Deidara finally heard the hair dyer switch off and then a couple of minutes later some one jerked the covers off of him. "Come on get up, I am not going to be late because of you." Deidara sat up and looked at Itachi Uchiha who had his pony tail holder in his mouth. "Well if some one doesn't have to primp all day in the bathroom then maybe we wouldn't be late because of me." Itachi rolled his eyes and started to pull his hair back, "Just get up and get ready...clock is ticking." Deidara got up from his bed and went to the bathroom and got himself ready for the day.
An hour later the two of them where leaving the hotel they were staying in, "You do know we are 15 minutes later right?" Itachi said as he poke Deidara with his elbow. Deidara hit him back, "Shut up...I don't won't to hear it anymore." The two of them started to walk to the out skirts of the city so they could meet the rest of the Akatsuki though their holograms.
They made it to a clearing where it was a good spot to where no one could see them while they were having there conversation. They both picked out a rock to sit on and put their hands together for their signs and they ended up showing up right in the middle of the conversation. "You two are late again!" One of the lead people yelled at Deidara and Itachi. "It isn't my fault...it is my art is a bang over here. That made us late." Deidara shot and evil look at him, "Oh hush it, it your fault too for taking your time in the bathroom!" "Stop it! I don't won't to hear you two bickering about who made you late." The leader said in a fed up tone. "Here is the deal, I was telling the others about what the plans are for who is to go and get the tailed beasts. And you two are going to go after the three tails, since you are late you can have one of the harder ones to find. Since this one doesn't have a host. Now you two can go and good luck." They both nodded and said yes sir before leaving the short conversation.
"See what you did Itachi...you just had to open your mouth." Itachi wasn't listening he just hop off the rock he was sitting on and started walking. "Hey! Where do you think you are going...yeah?" Itachi didn't turn around, "I' am going to get our tailed beast are you coming?" Deidara hopped down he was so mad, he felt like making one of his creations and throwing it at the back of Itachi's head. "Come on you slow poke or I will leave you behind!" Itachi yelled back and Deidara. "Oh hush I am coming, yeah."
*3 days later*
"Are you sure you know where you going Itachi? Because I am starting to think you don't." Deidara was getting tired of trying to find this three tails, it almost seemed like they would never find it. "Look there, and tell me what you see Deidara?" He looked up to see a big lake, "I bet it is there, because I can see some kind of chakra coming from the water." Itachi and Deidara walked to the river bank, "Well...get to it art boy!" Itachi snapped at Deidara. Deidara gave him a dirty look and dug in his pouch to get his clay and made himself a bird to ride on. "Fine you stay here Mr. Perfect, while I go and do the real work and you can see how GREAT my art really is yeah!" Itachi was just starring at him, "Go, I don't have all day for you." "Pft..whatever yeah." Deidara went on by himself on top of his bird, "Well I guess there is only one way of getting this thing to come out." He made a whole bunch of bomb bugs and tossed them into the lake. You could almost hear a pin drop it was so quiet and then..BOOM! The water exploded and up came the three tailed beast which was very angry for having a rude awaking like that.
"Well hello there, now what to do next." Deidara thought to himself but while thinking the three tails had it's own idea. It toke one of it's tails and swung it toward Deidara. He dodged it but barely, he watched as it went back under the water again. "Oh come on.." He dug in his pouch again and made a bomb that looked like a fish. But before he could drop it down into the water, the three tails came right up under him. The impact was so hard that he fell off his bird right into the water. Itachi watched and waited to see if he would come up again. After about a minute or so he realized he hadn't come up yet. So expecting the worse he rushed out to where Deidara went under. Using his sharingan he searched for him under the water. By chance he saw him, he was being pushed down toward the lake's floor. "Deidara...you better thank me for this." He dove into the cool water swimming as fast as he could to get to him, to distract the three tails he threw a kunai into it's face. It was a good enough opening to grab Deidara and swim to the surface. Itachi swam with him to the shore and laid him on the bank. "Don't you die on me now..." He was out of breath and the three tails was coming at him.
Itachi summoned up his charka, he didn't want to use this but what choice did he really have. "Amaterasu!" the black flames burst forth and the three tails started to go nuts, it tried going under water but the flames wouldn't go out. It came back up to the surface and Itachi finally stopped all of the flames. The three tails was still alive, but in pain so it went back under the water. "Man..this is just a big pain..." But he couldn't focus on that, Deidara was still out of it. He went up to his lips to hear if he was breathing, and he wasn't! "Ohh come on Deidara you can't..I don't really want to give you mouth to mouth." He tried turning him over and patted him on the back a bit but that wasn't working. He looked around to make sure he was alone and he bent down and started giving Deidara mouth to mouth. It toke him about six tries before, he heard Deidara start to choke and cough. Itachi pushed him over to let him spit the water out.
*cough, cough* Deidara started to breathe again but he was still in shock. Itachi rolled him back over on his back, "Deidara...you ok now?" Deidara barely opened his eyes a bit to see that it was Itachi looking over him with a worried look on his face. That was a face he had never seen before from him, it was almost like...Deidara snapped out of it. "Yeah I am ok...but what about you? You look like you toke a swim." Itachi raised an eyebrow at him, "Yes I did to save YOU!" He flicked him in the forehead, "The three tails toke you under and I had to dive in and save you. And then I had to give you mouth to mouth because you weren't breathing.
"You gave me mouth to mouth?" Deidara said in curious manner, he kind of remembered that it felt like some one kissing him but he threw it off. It must have been his lack of oxygen to his brain making it think that Itachi was kissing him, but yet the thought lingering there for a while. He sat up and just looked at him in the eyes, he has always had such beautiful eyes the kind that you could get lost in. Itachi looked back at him, "Look I know you just had a near death experience but we got to get the three tails now. Before it comes back again." Deidara put his hand in his pouch to get more of his clay but it was soaked. "Itachi where is my extra bag of clay at? I can't use this clay in my pouch it is to wet." Itachi sighed, "It is over there on the other side of the lake." He stood up, "I will go get it just stay here and lay low." Deidara watched as Itachi ran across the lake making sure he was checking all of his blind spots, he didn't really want that three tails coming up and taking him under. He found the extra clay and went into double time to get back to Deidara, he was so ready to get this over with.
*huff, huff* "Here...now let's get this done so we can go back." Deidara grabbed the bag and got some of his clay and made the fish one more time. He threw it into the lake, "Watch this...Itachi...yeah." He waited a little bit and then yelled, "Katsu!" Itachi turned around to see that the three tails had floated to the surface. "Nice one...art boy." Itachi turned and smiled at Deidara, which seeing and hearing this Deidara got wide eyed. "Hmm..thanks."
Itachi helped him stand up and Deidara made two more birds, and they strapped the beast to the birds so they could pull it along. Deidara was still feeling a little weak so Itachi decided to ride with him, "Here you can lay on me until you feel your strength is coming back." Deidara turned bright red but did as Itachi asked. He was laying on his chest so he could hear the beating of his heart, it was a soothing sound for Deidara, before you knew it he was asleep.
