"Hi, I'm Sasuke, the new Akatsuki member. Which one of you is Deidara?" The boy says as he enters the room. I look up casually, and to my surprise I find myself gasping at how beautiful he is. Shaking the blush out of my face, I reply "I'm Deidara, and these guys are Hidan, Itachi, Sasori and Tobi… yeah." waving my arms in turn at each of my companions.
He greets them, and comes to sit down next to me. As he gets into the seat his arm brushes my shoulder and I feel my entire body momentarily stiffen, shivers running down my spine, an unexplainable thrill coming from his sudden contact.
"Er… So what do you like to do?" I ask nervously, hoping he'll start a proper conversation.
"I like to hunt down and kill any ninja that gets in my way." He says carelessly, as if he is talking about his favourite flavoured ice-cream or something.
"Um… Okay… I guess that's nice… I like making art… yeah…" I say, the corner of my mouth twitching into a tense smile.
"Oh… What kind of art do you make?" He replies almost painfully, avoiding eye contact with me.
"Oh, mainly I just make sculptures out of exploding clay… I could show you sometime if you want… yeah…"
"I'd like that. Hey what's your village like?" I notice he's making an effort to talk. We chat a bit, and the conversation becomes more open, until we are talking like wild fire.
"Hey, you wanna go outside for some air? It's getting kinda stuffy in here." Sasuke says, a funny look in his eyes.
"Uh… sure… yeah…" I reply, slightly wary, wondering what he's thinking.
I follow him up the stairs to the front door, handing him the key to get out. As soon as I shut the door behind me, Sasuke twists me around and holds me against the wall, firmly pressing my hands beside my head.
"S-Sasuke!" I whisper, my eyes drifting into his seductive gaze. Suddenly his lips are parallel to mine, his wet tongue just visable, and then it happens. He kisses me. It is an unexplainable experience. His hand is touching my cheek, I reach out my arm, pulling him in, running my fingers through his soft black hair.
After what seems like hours, we break apart. My eyes widen and my mouth opens slightly as I realize what I have done. I turn on my heels and run for my life, silently cursing myself, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry!!
At last I stop and collapse into a sitting position under a tree, gasping for air. "AAAGHHH, Deidara you are so STUPID!!" I wail at myself, throwing my head back and yelling into the sky. Pulling my knees up to my chin, I hug myself and try not to cry. The only person who has ever really noticed me and I possibly just blew it all. Why did I run?! Sasuke must think I hate him now!! Or even worse, what if he hates me! I rest my head in my hands and try to ignore the horrified thoughts flying through my mind. I sit motionless for about half an hour, my hair a mess and tears now freely running down my cheeks. Eventually I stand up, knowing that I will have to go back to the Akatsuki base sooner or later. Reluctantly I force myself to start moving, dreading the moment when I will have to face the dark, beautiful Sasuke again.
