Chapter 1!: The Unknown Attack!

I watched him, startled by his sudden movement. A thought ran through my head.

'Get out! Escape!' But I wasn't afraid of him anymore. Hell, he was a part of me as I was of him.

I told myself over and over that I was wrong. That I should have stayed with Sasuke.

But when I stood in the same room, his fist slammed into the wall beside him, his gorgeous eyes filled with Sorrow and tears and his beautiful waist-length hair messed up and blood stained.

… I couldn't bear it… I felt his pain.

Lost in my mind, I walked forwards steadily, nearing him, his back to me.

I was so close I could hear the quiet sobs and gasping, then jagged breaths between tears and the steady beat of his heart.

I knew I couldn't leave him. I just wouldn't. I was a stubborn person, but I didn't want to be afraid of Deidara anymore.

Letting my instincts pass by, I took the last step that sealed the distance between us and wrapped my arms around his waist, embracing him.

I expected him to pull away, hit me and yell crude things at me, but he didn't. It was from the silence in the moment we had together that I decided I wanted to stay with him forever, keep him close and never let him go.

I wanted to Protect him.

I loved him.

Days passed, then days to weeks, weeks to months, which eventually turned into a year.

Of course, I was still in love with Deidara-kun, but he did know that… Yet…

I remember being in the house the Akatsuki rented, and sitting in my room silently, waiting for the clock to change.

I started wondering where Deidara was.

I glanced back over to the clock in my room.

'7:30...' I said to myself. 'Where is he?' I waited until the clock said '7:47' Then stood up and wandered down the corridor.

Deidara's room was only a few seconds away.

I paused outside the door, wondering if I really should go in.

I shrugged the thought away and entered.

I froze. I couldn't do any more than stare.

The person I want, need, love, was curled up on his bed naked, crying quietly. And with deep cuts and blood running down him, staining the sheets and his hair.

'Deidara-kun!' I gushed, and moved quickly towards him, grabbing his cloak on the way.

I sat beside him on the bed and wrapped the cloak around him.

'Oh, Deidara-kun, what happened to you?' I murmured softly to him, and moved him gently, so he was resting on my leg.

He sniffed and looked up at me sadly, his eyes red and wet.

'D- don't….' He stammered. 'I'll get you… all bloody… un…'

I kissed his forehead and smiled at him.

'Don't mind.'

He nuzzled up against my shoulder and made a whining noise. I kissed his forehead again and let him rest there.

I felt myself start to drift off when I felt him tug at my waist.

I let him pull me backwards so I was laid on my side with him huddled against me.

His tears were gone, and he was smiling, which made me much more happier.

I was staring at him in silence, when his hand moved from his side and rested on mine. I stared at our hands, one on top of the other, then shifted my eyes back to his face to see him smiling at me, his eyes open and bright.

Just to get this through with, he calls me Danna. Partly because of Sasori-no-Danna who used to be his master, and the other part because I was, somehow, in a higher rank than himself. Why I used to ask myself? Because I have a Sharingan, was the only solution I could come to.

'Danna.' He grinned at me softly and exhaustedly. 'I… I love you, Danna, un.' He closed his eyes happily and his face was hinted with a light pink. I smiled at him, brushing my hand over his now-warm cheek, hen leant down and bumped my forehead into his.

'I love you too, Deidara-kun.' I felt my cheeks also glow and smiled to myself.

Deidara shifted himself under me, then his lips connected with mine.

I didn't hold back, of course. I had waited for this moment for so long, and nothing could tear him and me away from it…

Apart from Tobi, of course, who always walks in at some of the most awkward of times.
