Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, I don't think things would be the same if I did. P:

Okay, so this is just a story on Kisame. I dunno WHY I wanted to write it, but I thought it'd be fun and Kisame doesn't get enough attention. : D So here you go!

-----------------------------------------

Blue.

That's the color he saw.

All.

The.

Time.

Sometimes you want to get a kunai and slice the hell out of the damn mirror.

Kisame was staring at Itachi, who was taking a nap - because he said he wanted to 'rest his eyes'. Pale skin, black hair, a body of the gods, eyes that penetrate a person (literally)...a girls dream. Except his icy personality, which, y'know, girls enjoy the bad-boy type too, which, ignoring the fact that Itachi would KILL you if you got near him, is kinda something girls go for. A lot.

Comparatively, Kisame wasn't really a match to Uchiha Itachi. Blue skin, shark-like features (including gills, or something of the like, on his cheeks), beady eyes, sunken in cheek bones, and a body that wasn't exactly 'God-like'. It's kind of like having a poodle next to a pug when it comes to the duo - one is fancy and high-price, while the other is the kind of 'so ugly it's cute' type.

This wasn't a new realization to Kisame. It was actually one that was noted since they met. It's pretty damn visible, in most opinions. Deidara, a blonde (rather obnoxious) Akatsuki member noted once that Itachi is really popular with girls (before he kills them) and he insinuated that he wasn't ever going to get a girl - or a boy - because of the way he looks. Tobi (even more obnoxious than Deidara) even added, enthusiastically, that he wasn't going to even get a mammal of any kind.

In the looks department, the Akatsuki had nefariously been known for their good looks. (well, either that or the fact that they were an organization of many bloody-violent-mass-murderers..) Kisame is actually insecure about his looks - not that he'd let one know. He comes about in a confident nature, but if he could, he'd do anything to get Itachi's black hair and pale skin, Sasori's everlasting youth, Deidara's figure, and Hidan's eyes and his...range of vocabulary. Also Kakuzu's money, but that was unlikely.

But Kisame was Kisame - blue and getting older.

Itachi woke up. Kisame didn't want to get caught for gazing at his teammate - although teammate might not be a good word to describe them, partner might be better - so he engaged in the closest book near. That book happened to be a book that was owned by Itachi. Itachi's favorite genre was horror and massacre - stuff to give him ideas, Kisame supposed. Any who, Kisame pretended to look into the book. Itachi sat up, slowly, pulling his hand through his hair. Itachi soon swiveled his head to Kisame, meeting eyes.

Kisame was looking up over the book. His sharp teeth and pointy-ended mouth shaped a grin. "Good mornin', sleeping beauty." He sarcastically winked.

Itachi glared quickly, then, rather than giving Kisame a headache with his eyes, he stood up and grabbed the book from Kisame's hands. "Don't touch my stuff.." He muttered, then put it on a shelf. He walked out of the room.

Kisame wasn't tense - it was his partner, and Itachi wouldn't REALLY hurt him (other than that one time). Anyways, he was used to Uchiha's hissy fits. Especially when he woke up. Kisame grabbed a journal and started scribbling words into it - just because he was bored. During his scribbles, he got very tired. So tired that he fell asleep in the chair.

Kisame fell over, waking up. He rubbed his head and looked over at the cumbersome object laying next to him. The book from earlier. He sat up, staring at Itachi, who was in "uniform". "Get up." Itachi said, as if he was disgraced by having Kisame on the floor, even if he threw the book at him to get him up. "We have a mission."

I have nothing against Pugs. I like them, in fact. I was just trying to make a comparison! D:

Anyways, hope you enjoyed it! I know it was short. I'll try to remember to update!
