After a long boring summer, Cin is ready to start college. But what happens when the Akatsuki show up injured at her front door? She heals them and they go off to college. But in the off-campus housing, can the boys keep their secret?

Hey everyone! Welcome back to my story!

To any new readers, you might want to go to the first story, Quiet on the Golf Course before reading this one, or else you might find yourself confused, because there are some things that I'm not explaining twice!

To reuse the quote by Robert Porterfield I started with, not even a full year ago, "If you like it, talk about it. If you don't, keep your mouth shut!"

And back by popular request is your riddle!

Ready or not, here it comes!

Is it legal for a man living in North Carolina to be buried in South Carolina?

Cin couldn't believe it. She just couldn't believe what she saw before her eyes. She had hoped that she would have more time before this moment, oh, why had they come so soon? Was it not bad enough that a good portion of her summer was taken up by the Akatsuki? And now her period of relaxation and recuperation was gone!

According to the calendar, it was almost time for college to start.

The girl was grateful to have not seen any sign of the Akatsuki…not that she didn't want to see them, it's just being around them was extremely stressful.

But she'd get to go without them this school year, and she couldn't help but look forward to going to college, especially since this university was one that she had wanted to go to for practically her entire life.

Everything was packed up, and now she was just counting down the minutes until she would be able to move in her dorm.

Cin couldn't help but wonder who her roommate would be…and hoped that she would be really nice!

Something else the somewhat-Akatsuki member hoped for was that she'd be able to find time to practices her skills before she lost them completely.

And something told her that forgetting such things would be a fatal error.

Leaning back in her chair, she flipped a strand of hair behind her ear. She was happy to notice that her hair had almost fully grown back to its length to the small of her back that it was before it had been cut off in that disastrous haircut the now missing Veronica had so graciously given her.

She wondered what the Akatsuki would think of her hair being so long. It probably wasn't the smartest thing for a ninja to have…but then again, didn't some of the Konoha shinobi have long hair? Also, she could use Deidara for an example.

Besides, she had an idea of a way to keep from her hair being used against her.

But before she could indulge in more rest and relaxation of the knowledge that the Akatsuki were back in their hideout and she was heady off to every teen's dream, the doorbell rang.

Sighing to herself, she went to the door…opened it, and stared with wide amber eyes.

"I know we said we'd leave you alone for four years, un," the blond spoke, holding his arm at its elbow down at his side before lifting it to show the shocked girl, "But we kinda need some help, yeah?"

Deidara's arm was sliced off.

Hidan was being carried by Kakuzu in a bunch of pieces with his head yelling loudly profanities.

And Sasori was being carried by Kisame, looking very much so like a puppet while Itachi held the thing that Cin knew to be the puppet's heart.

So, Cin did what any girl would do when a bunch of crazed murderers who were supposed to leave her alone for four years so she could go to college in peace who had just shown up at her front door needed to be healed does.

Thunk!

Sorry it's not very long, but hopefully I'll get the second chapter written soon enough!

Remember, RERV! I'll be keeping the voting for pairings up until chapter 10, so keep voting!
