Chapter one: "A Fight"

Secretly Sasori actually liked Deidara, though he never understood why they always fought. Every time Sasori would try to talk to Deidara, a fight would break and medical attention was needed to either heal wounds or take out poison from ones body.

Deidara's POV

Sasori was MAD! He has always gotten this way whenever I messed up one of his puppets. I hate how he always spends time with those puppets! He never talks to ME! We're partners for Kami's sake! He should respect me more!

I had it with his rude attitude, I threw a bomb right at his face, laughing as he flew to the wall with a loud ~thump~! I felt a sharp pain in my side and saw lots of blood ooze down my side, hitting the floor.

I looked at Sasori, his hand had moved and is now going down slowly, the sharp pain growing longer, making me dizzy with the loss of blood. "Don't you dare underestimate me baka. I have more power than you." Sasori snarled.

"Why would I 'dare', when I could have a chance of winning, hm?" I snapped back. Though my sight was fading and my legs were shaking, the wound now getting deeper as Sasori's puppet dug the kunai deep into my side.

I threw a knife and hit right beside Sasori's heart container. Though I fell, my sight now blacker than night, and my blood, pulsing from my side.

Sasori's POV

I couldn't do anything for the dying boy. He was loosing to much blood, and I am only but a puppet. A heart with a shell around it. Nothing important to me, my feelings gone. I could only pick up the blonde and put him onto the black leather couch. Leaving him there, so he could die.

Zetsu's POV

I had watched from the corner of the room, no one notices me anymore, not since Tobi came along. But this isn't really my story, now is it? No. It is a story for Pain and Deidara, and how they became the only 'good' pairing here! No. I am not happy.

Anyway, I walked over to Deidara, the smell of flesh and blood making my mouth water, picked him up, and carried him to Konan's room.

Konan's POV

I heard the door click open and put down my clipboard, looking to see who it was. "Zetsu?" I asked, looking in his arms. "Oh my, Zetsu! What did you do?" I yelled, running over to where Zetsu put Deidara down.

"We didn't do anything! Sasori hurt him worse than ever! Can you fix him?" Zetsu asked his white side paler than usual with worry. The black side was staring at Deidara hungrily, no doubt his mouth watering.

"I'll see what I can do, for now, go get Kakuzu!" I walked to a cabinet and pulled out a cotton strip and bandages.

Third POV

Zetsu left to go find Kakuzu and Sasori went to his room to repair himself from any cracks or scuffed parts, leaving poor Konan, to clean up Deidara.

Once Kakuzu had come in to help Konan, Pain started pacing in front of the door, scared that something might have happened to his secret lover.

You see, Pain has always thought Deidara was the most beautiful thing in the entire world, so he spied on Deidara until he created the group called, Akatsuki. Once the organization was done, Pain sent out an invite to any wandering tourists that had no where else to go.

Konan was Pain's childhood friend, and once his lover when Nagato was alive. She is the only true girl of the Akatsuki, and the first to notice any love around the group. The first pairing she noticed was with Itachi and Kisame. Seeing now that they were married, it seems she has done a good job finding this out.

Now days, Konan would get worried that Pain wasn't taking anything too carefully. Konan wanted Pain to be happy not sad, or angry. She only wanted what was best for him.

Konan walked out of the room and found Pain pacing outside the door; she hugged him and pressed her face into his chest. "I want you to do something for me Pain." She said, not sure if this was going to help at all.

"Anything for you Konan." Pain said, resting his head on Konan's.

"I want you to get your things out of our room…and move Sasori out of his. Switch him. You love Deidara. I can tell with the way you always worry about him and how you get choked up every time Dei tries to talk to you." Konan said, moving away some. "And anyway, I think I've fallen for Sasori. He was so nice to me…I just have my feelings."

"I understand…" Pain felt as if a pin was just stuck threw his heart, like nothing could ever pull it out. "I-I'll just go get my stuff then…" with that, he left to go pack up and move with his true love.

A knock on the oak wood door disturbed Sasori as he worked on his torso. "Come in," he said strictly.

"I am your leader; don't talk to me like that." Pain said walking into the fireplace lit room. "I need you to move out of here. Konan wants us to switch."

Sasori paused. Why would Konan want to change rooms? Was it because the safety of Deidara was too important? He pushed away the thoughts.

"Fine. But don't blame me if you get sick of the brat in a few days." Sasori said starting to put his things into a big bag he had lying around.

Pain smiled, and once Sasori was packed up and out, he placed his own things around, loving the thought of being with Deidara for the rest of the Akatsuki's years.

Deidara's POV

I'm dead…I know it. Sasori would have never let me live if he had the chance to kill me. He would have just left me there to rot. I should have known you can't trust another artist.

Though when my eyes opened, I saw a very bright light and a tiled ceiling, The Medical Ward. "He's waking!" the distant sound of Konan filled my ears, then, a beeping noise.

I looked around me, not really noticing out of the ordinary, except that Pain was in there, worried stares being dragged over my body. "I thought you had died." He said his voice cracking. I felt his hand grab mine. "I was so worried."

I let my head lull. "Why do I hurt so much?" I asked, my voice groggy. "I feel horrible." I declared.

Pain smiled lightly at me. "You were injured. We had to fix you up without you dying. Do you know how hard that is?" his smile faded lightly. "I thought even Kakuzu wouldn't have been able to save you!"

"As long as I didn't hurt Sasori-Danna. Then I should be fine."

"You baka! He nearly killed you!"

"But it was my fault!"

"Stop saying that!"

"No!"

"Both of you shut up!" Konan yelled over our bickering. "You guys even argue like a married couple!"

I stared at her. A married couple? What that had to do with anything was beyond me. "But! If Sasori-Danna was hurt, that would be worth killing me for! I shouldn't have thrown the bomb at him first!" I heard Pain growl as I said that.

Pain's POV

"You will NEVER speak of him again! Do you understand me? You are no longer bunked with him. I will be taking his place and keeping a watchful eye on you." I stood up and walked to the corner chair, turning to face the wall.

I really didn't want to leave, but I was so frustrated that I needed to get away from reality. When I looked back at Deidara, his eyes were full of disbelief.
