Chapter 2
Masahiko woke up when her phone buzzed loudly on the table. She opened her eyes weakly, it was morning already? It seemed like she was on the roof with Deidara just a few seconds ago. Grabbing the phone, she read who was messaging her. She had two messages, one from Sasori and one from Deidara.
[Text from: Sasori]
= Good morning.
[Text from: Deidara]
= Mornin' Massy! Guess whose got a date to the dance~ ;D
The girl wasn't sure why but the thought of Deidara with another girl made her mad... She was just protective of her new friend, she concluded. Afterall, Deidara was special so she hoped that other girl didn't take advantage of him. She texted the two boys back.
[Text to: Sasori]
= Good morning, Sasori. When did you want to go to your grandmothers' today? ^^
[Text to: Deidara]
= That's awesome, Deidara! Now we both have dates~
Sasori replied back immediately, while Deidara still hadn't responded. Was he busy with this other girl? She hoped he wasn't doing anything like that... her face burned red as she thought of it. Deidara wouldn't! He couldn't! Not with some girl he just picked up. Wait, why she care so much? Her phone buzzed, reminding her she had a message, right Sasori. She was going to the dance with Sasori. It didn't matter what Deidara did.
[Text from: Sasori]
= Well, I was kind of hoping we could go soon. I don't want to keep her waiting around long. Could you meet me in front of the school in a half hour?
The girl got up to look in the mirror, her hair was all bushy and she still looked half asleep. 30 minutes to make herself look presentable. She couldn't tell Sasori senpai to wait for her so she would have to hurry! Masahiko fixed her hair quickly and put on a little bit of make up. She wore a bright blue t-shirt with polka dots and a black frilly skirt. Hopefully Sasori would think she looked cute. Though, she doubted he would ever verbally announce it. She remembered what Deidara had said about Sasori hating to wait, so she rushed out the door and ran down to the front doors as fast as she could.
"Sasori!" She called when the red head came into sight. The girl leaned down, huffing and puffing, trying to catch her breath.
Sasori smirked, "Well, you didn't make me wait, that's different." He said, clearly impressed.
Masahiko looked up at him and he was unsurprisingly as gorgeous as ever. He was wearing a pale blue t-shirt with a grey button up shirt over top and a pair of faded blue jeans. It was different seeing him out of the school uniform, but it was nice. "You look really nice today." The girl said in awe, still overwhelmed by her own presence.
The red head smiled faintly and looked a bit awkward. He was used to getting compliments on his art but not himself. "Thanks. Uhm... You too." The puppet artist admitted, looking around the school yard to avoid eye contact.
Sasori was so cute! Though, part of her wished he could be at ease with her like how he was around Deidara... Maybe with time he would loosen up a bit.
"Let's go then." The red head decided impatiently, taking the lead on the walk to his grandmother's house.
Masahiko bit her lip with frustration, how could she get him talking? "So Sasori, what is your grandmother like?" The girl asked happily, well that would get him talking hopefully.
The red head turned his head back slightly, surprised she would say anything. "She's nice, I guess." He said quietly and shrugged.
The girl frowned from behind him, this was going to be difficult, but she really liked him so she couldn't give up! "Oh, that's good. So why did she want to meet me?" Masahiko kept up her cheerfulness.
"I guess she was just interested that I decided to attend one of these events."
The girl nodded understandingly, "That makes sense. You've never had a girl ask you before?"
"No, is that surprising?" He asked curiously.
Masahiko caught up with his fast pace, now walking beside him. Sasori looked to his left, surprised. "A little bit." She admitted. "But I'm happy I could be the first one!" Masahiko smiled lightly.
Her senpai made an amused sound, "Yes. So I was wondering, what type of art do you practice, Masahiko?"
Sasori asked her a question? She was getting somewhere! Maybe! Though she didn't really know how to answer his question... She looked down at the ground, slightly embarrassed. "Well, I can paint a little but I haven't really discovered what works for me yet."
Sasori nodded understandingly, "I sometimes paint. Maybe I could help you out until you find your style."
Masahiko almost died on the spot, her senpai wanted to help her out? "That sounds amazing!" She said, a bit too excitedly, and the boy just chuckled.
"This is it." Sasori announced, stopping in the drive way of a small house.
Masahiko gulped. Well, this was it. She was going to meet his grandmother. What if she didn't like her or thought she was weird? Deidara's words from yesterday played in her head again to try to comfort her but there was no helping how nervous she was. She was just a naturally nervous person.
"Sasori, my adorable grandson!" The small old lady exclaimed, meeting the two as they walked in the door. She seemed nice so far. Maybe things would be okay. "And you must be Sasori's girlfriend, what was her name again, dear?" Sasori's grandmother chuckled and looked her over, probably considering if she was good enough for him.
Masahiko blushed bright red, girlfriend?! As much as she wished it was true, the lady had misunderstood!
"Granny Chiyo... She's not my girlfriend, we're just going to the dance together. And it was Masahiko." Sasori sighed, sounding slightly annoyed but he was used to the old lady embarrassing him.
"Well, girlfriend to-be then? That better?" She chucked again, "Come in, come in."
The two teens sat at the table while Chiyo dished up some cookies. Masahiko didn't really know what to say. She wished she knew Sasori better, he just felt so distant. She felt so distant! Like a stranger, why was she even invited here? The girl took a cookie, not really hungry but didn't want to be rude, and wanted to look like she was doing something besides just blankly staring.
"So, does your friend Deidara have a girl for the dance?" Chiyo asked casually, joining them at the table.
"Probably." Sasori shrugged.
The old lady sighed, "He should really find a nice girl, I've seen the kind of girls he dates."
Masahiko panicked again, what type of girls did Deidara date anyway?
After an awkward conversation, with Chiyo doing about 95% of the talking, Sasori led her up to his room. He was still being the best host ever, in a never say anything type of way! His room was really clean, like in an OCD type of way! He had all his puppets lined up neatly on the shelf, his tools lined up in order. She was scared to touch anything!
Sasori plopped down on the bed, apparently not knowing he should invite her. Masahiko sat down beside him unsurely. Senpai was strange and maybe some would call him rude but she found him really charming, always. He was one of a kind, that was for sure!
The girls face heated up. She was in Sasori's room! Senpai's room! He slept in here... and maybe did other things... Her face heated up more.
"So, what do you want to do?" The red head turned towards her innocently, breaking her unpure thoughts.
"Oh uhm!" Masahiko stuttered, trying to reclear her head. "You should uhm, tell me about yourself, anything at all!"
Sasori shrugged, "That's not very specific."
The girl made a frustrated face, putting her finger up to her lip, "Hmm, well how about I'll ask you a question and you -have- to answer! Then you can ask me too, okay? It will be fun, like a game!" The girl exclaimed, feeling herself get slowly more comfortable.
Nodding unsurely, Sasori agreed. He wasn't as excited as Masahiko was but not against the idea. "Okay, you can ask first."
The girl had many questions she wanted to ask Sasori but she felt maybe she should start out simple, "What's your favorite color, Senpai?"
"Turquoise." The boy answered quickly. It was a strange choice, usually a person would say just blue or green but she didn't expect any less from him. Sasori was an artist! She was mostly wondering because of her dress though... Aqua... Turquoise... It was close, right? Now what would Sasori ask her?
"What's yours?" The red head asked boredly, making the girl squint her eyes.
That copycat! "Cheater." Masahiko giggled, "And mines blue." What else could she ask him? Maybe a step up from colors but she didn't want things to get too difficult yet. "Whose your favorite artist? Well, besides yourself!" The girl stuck out her tongue playfully and the red head answered just as quickly as the other question.
"Monzaemon Chikamatsu, he's dead but he was a great puppet artist. Living wise, I'd say my granny, she taught me everything I know... How about you?"
Masahiko's eyes sparkled, Sasori was... telling her about himself! "Oh!" The girl flinched, forgetting she was asked the same question, "Well, that would be you." She blushed and Sasori smiled lightly. "Uhm... another question..." The girl put her finger to her lip. Her damn heart should stop pounding so fast! She couldn't even think straight! "Uhm, what's your favorite food?" It was lame, but she was on the spot.
The boy chuckled, amused over something? "I like sweet things. You?" He had this so easy, he just kept copying her questions!
Masahiko pouted, "You should make up your own questions sometimes. And I like sweet things too. Spicy things are icky!" The girl made an unhappy face before cheering up and giggling again. "For being a jerk and copying my questions, now you get a difficult one!" She exclaimed, putting up her finger like she was scolding him. "What're the qualities of your perfect girl?"
Sasori paused, the first question he didn't answer right off the bat. His eye brows furrowed, the question made him think that hard? Least maybe she might get a good answer... But what if he liked the complete opposite type of girl she was?! "Well, they would have to have a good sense of what true art is..." The red head bit his lip... Not really knowing what else to say but he hated leaving things unfinished...
Seeing he was struggling, Masahiko waved her hands, "It's okay if that's all you can think of. Maybe art is just really important to you. Ask me something now." She smiled reassuringly.
The red head scratched his head, looking deep in thought before giving up, "I'm sorry, I'm bad at this game. Can I keep copying you?" He turned to her innocently and she couldn't help but chuckle.
"Sure, I don't -really- mind." She didn't mind answering this question, she could tell Sasori her feelings for him without him even know it was him! It was perfect.
"Okay then, what's your perfect boy?"
"Well!" Masahiko giggled, "He of course has to have a good sense of what art is. Art is eternal beauty after all! And he has to be cool and strong and protect me!"
Sasori chuckled, "Wow, you're quite the handful, but you do have the qualifications of my perfect girl."
Was Sasori... flirting with her? Masahiko blushed, staring at him with amazement. "And you meet the qualifications for my perfect boy." The girl smiled. She gulped nervously, putting her hand up to her chest in fear. "Uhm, Sasori, this question you don't have to answer with words if you don't want to..." Masahiko blushed harder, what was she even doing?! But things just felt so right she couldn't stop herself. The boy raised an eyebrow, before she put her hand on top of his. She was so nervous she couldn't stop herself from shaking. "Sasori, would you... kiss me?" She leaned in ever so slightly, giving him the option if he wanted to. Surely Senpai would.
The red head leaned forward, not giving it a second thought as he took her lips in his own. He pressed his mouth against her with new found desire, tangling his hands in her long hair. There was something about her, maybe how she idolized him, they way she said 'eternal beauty' that he just wanted her.
"Sasori Senpai..." The girl moaned into the kiss, gripping onto his shirt, she had held this in for long and now things were working out! She was kissing her Senpai!
The door creaked open, causing both teens to immediately pull away from each other. How could they have missed the footsteps? ... Stupid question. They were a bit preoccupied. Granny Chiyo appeared and petted Sasori on the shoulder, "That was so cute, why did you stop?" The old lady chuckled, "I'm so glad, Sasori! I really thought you were going to die a 40 year old virgin!"
The boy blushed slightly and Masahiko almost fainted. She saw her kiss him?! Wait, what did she think they were -going- to do?
"Whatever." Sasori grunted, turning away stubbornly.
Chiyo chuckled more, "As charming as ever. Well, I just came up to tell you I made some supper and maybe after eating you two should head off to the dance."
The two nodded, Masahiko still dying of embarrassment but Sasori seemed to have gotten over it. "Yeah."
"Oh, and wear protection, I don't need any great grand babies yet!" The old lady joked.
After an awkward supper and parting ways with Sasori, Masahiko went to her dorm to get ready for the dance. She had a single room so she could be as weird as she wanted without having to worry about a roommate judging her. Being so shy, she begged her parents to pay the extra money for her to be alone. At least if she wanted to invite Sasori over she wouldn't have a roommate on her back. Though, she was sort of a messy clutter type of person, so hopefully he wouldn't be repulsed by her room. It added character though, right? She looked at herself in her full length mirror. Deidara had really made a good choice with the dress. She had almost forgot about him... but she still had that weird lingering feeling for him she couldn't quite put her finger on.
Her phone buzzed from on the bed.
[Text from: Sasori]
= Are you ready? I'll meet you outside, okay?
[Text to: Sasori]
= I'll be right there! :)
Her heart beat sped up as she thought about the kiss again... Did that mean Sasori was hers now or was it sorta just a heat of the moment type thing? Maybe she could ask him after tonight. He wasn't going anywhere, after all.
Masahiko met Sasori out front, he wasn't hard to spot with that crimson hair of his. "Hey." He said, sounding slightly happy to see her. That was better than his usual tone.
"Hey." The girl smiled, looking him over. He looked -so- attractive with that suit on! He was gorgeous before but now he was like a god! It was strange to see him out here just by himself, nobody would think to talk to such an attractive man? Masahiko almost drooled at the sight of him. "You look really good, I feel under dressed now." The girl said in awe.
Sasori chuckled, "Thanks. You look beautiful though."
Her face tinted pink and her heart almost jumped out of her chest. Sasori thought... She was starting to feel dizzy now.
"Come on." Sasori said, leading them inside the lobby.
The place looked so beautiful it was hard to think it was part of the school. Well, it was an art school after all. But, there were so many beautiful girls inside! Masahiko didn't have very high self confidence so she felt intimidated, what if Sasori thought he could do better?
Just then a familiar face appeared, "Sasori no Danna!" Deidara hugged him from behind, making her date flinch in shock. "Ahh, you guys are so cute together! It's a match made in heaven, hm!" The blond clasped his hands together as he looked them over. Deidara looked really gorgeous too! With that long blond hair, he was so perfect! Masahiko stared at her friend a little too long before he dragged her off into the corner. "Be right back Danna! I just want to ask her something!"
Sasori scowled before sitting down at a table, he hated waiting but he hated crowds even more so he wasn't about to push his way through after them.
Once they found a free spot to themselves, Deidara giggled accusingly, "Sooooo, how far did you get with Danna?"
Masahiko blushed, she was sort of excited to tell Deidara the news but part of her didn't want him to know... She looked down, embarrassed. "Well, we kissed... I don't know if that means we're together now or..."
"Oh my god!" Deidara exclaimed, bringing her into a hug. "That's awesome. If you made it that far with Danna it must mean he really likes you. I mean, girls have tried before but most have failed to even get him interested, hm."
"Oh? Really?" Masahiko asked excitedly, feeling special now.
"Deidara, why are you hanging out with flat girls for?" A rather arrogant voice called from the crowd. This girl was, even though Masahiko hated to admit it, stunning. She had long blue hair, going down to her mid back. Her eyes were the same color too and she wore navy blue dress. What did she call her? Masahiko glared at the other girl. Why would someone as kind as Deidara hang out with someone like -this-?
"Stop being mean, Yumi, hm. Masahiko is my friend." Deidara pouted, "I was hoping we could all hang out afterwards but if you're just going to be like that..."
The girl, Yumi smirked then, moving in on the blond and wrapping her arms around his neck. Well, that must've been his date. "Well Dei, I was kinda hoping it coud be just me and you later, huh?" She batted her eyes lashes, furthering to piss the red haired girl off.
It made Masahiko uncomfortable and jealous to see Deidara like -that-, with another girl. "I'm going to go back with Sasori now, okay? You guys seem like you want to be alone." Masahiko said, trying to yell over the crowd. She disliked this place. Maybe she was a stay at home type of person after all. "Sasori!" The girl called, running over. He didn't look very happy but he brightened up a bit once she made it over to the table. At least it was somewhat quiet and out of the way. "I'm sorry, Deidara just wanted me to meet his date but she wasn't very nice..." The girl pouted, taking a seat beside her date at the otherwise empty table.
Sasori made an uneasy expression, "They never usually are."
"Why does Deidara date girls like that? He's so nice..." Masahiko asked, sounding a bit upset.
The boy shrugged, "Whatever puts out, I guess."
She felt something inside her break, the thought of Deidara having sex with that bitch just made her sick. She didn't deserve him at all... She was so glad Sasori wasn't like that. Masahiko took Sasori's hands in her own and held them lovingly. Sasori smiled slightly.
Just then, two, or at least one unwanted guest joined them: Deidara and his date. "D'awww, you guys! Sasori, you should dance with her, hm." Deidara exclaimed, leaning over the table.
"Don't tell me what to do, Deidara." Sasori shot him an irritated look, turning back to Masahiko and changing his tune to more kind, "Unless you wanted to dance."
"Sure, dancing would be fun." Masahiko smiled happily, not even looking at Yumi as if to ignore her very existence.
If that was possible; the bluenette sighed loudly. "I wanted to leave this kiddy party, Deidara. I want to get some drinks and then 'you know'.~"
Masahiko frowned, knowing what 'you know' was supposed to mean. Yumi would touch Deidara over her dead body!
Before the blond could respond to his horny date, Masahiko grabbed his sleeve sadly. "I don't want you to leave, Deidara."
Deidara smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I'm sticking around, hm."
Sasori sighed, "I think somebody needs to calm their whoremones." He turned to Yumi and Masahiko couldn't help but giggle softly. That's why she liked Sasori!
Yumi huffed, crossing her arms stubbornly but not knowing what else to say.
Deidara chuckled, "Yeah, we can get to that later, for now, we should dance."
Get to -that- later? No you wouldn't, Deidara! Masahiko was excited to dance with Sasori but it was difficult to enjoy herself how worked up she was getting over Deidara. She had to keep him in her sight so that slut couldn't take off with him!
When they made it to the ball room, "Gida Rida" by Younha was playing. It was such a romantic beautiful song, she really wanted to dance with Sasori to it... but didn't want Yumi dancing with Deidara! Yumi didn't even know what romance was, that stupid whore! She didn't deserve Deidara! Before she knew it, Sasori wrapped his arms around her waist, bringing her back to reality.
"I don't normally dance but it doesn't seem too difficult." The red head looked around the room, copying the other men. Oh Sasori... It was so unfair to him, he wanted to spend time with her but the whole time she had been worrying about Deidara.
"I'm sure you'll do fine, Sasori!" Masahiko smiled, wrapping her arms around his neck. Not like she was a master dancer, after all. The boy smiled back, tightening his arms around her waist and dancing in circles. The bubbly feeling returned within her, maybe it was the song or maybe it was being held by her Senpai. He was being so romantic to her, even though he probably didn't know it.
Masahiko rested her head on his shoulder. "I really like you, Sasori." The girl admitted, whispering in his ear.
The boy made an amused sound, "Really? Well, I like you too."
Sasori held her tightly, it was different for him, being this close to somebody but the girl struck him as different. She didn't seem to be after what most girls wanted. Most of all she seemed to understand the eternal beauty he sought for in his art, while most of his admirers just looked at it superficially. It would take a while before he let her completely in but they could take it step by step.
"Sasori..." She said, he liked it when she said his name. "Will you... kiss me again?"
The red head leaned down and kissed her, more softly and timid than the first kiss, being in public after all. It came off as more romantic, and made her heart melt. After the kiss was broken, she felt her heart skip a beat, like she had fallen for him all over again.
After the song faded, Sasori let her go and she could see Yumi was enjoying herself, kissing Deidara... Masahiko burned with jealousy... But, she shouldn't have been! She just kissed Sasori! Her feelings were at war with themselves, she was so happy to be with Sasori but so upset that someone else, a stupid whore for that matter, was with Deidara. She could cry... "Sasori, can I talk to you alone somewhere?" The girl begged, making him almost feel like he did something wrong, but he agreed none the less.
After finding an empty classroom, Masahiko sat on a desk and nibbled her lip.
"Is everything okay?" Sasori asked in confusion, preferring to stand.
The girl shook her head like an upset child, "No. Don't worry, it's not you Senpai. Yumi's upsetting me."
He could see the tears forming in her eyes. The red head walked closer to her, taking her hands comfortingly. "Did she say something to you? If she upsets you then we can avoid them for the night, if you want. I'll tell Deidara I want him to leave us alone, okay?" Sasori offered in a comforting voice.
Masahiko shook her head, furthering to confuse him. "No, Sasori. It's not that just..." She nibbled her lip again. "This is going to sound really strange but try to hear me out, okay?"
The red head raised an eyebrow but agreed. "Well..." She looked down, wondering how she was going to explain this without Sasori getting the wrong idea. "Deidara is a close friend of mine so it upsets me to see her treating him... like that."
Sasori knew what she was talking about, he disliked Yumi too but her worries still seemed absurd. Deidara didn't seem upset afterall, so why should she be worried about him? "I really don't think Deidara minds." Sasori reassured, or at least thought he was.
Masahiko shook her head again, "But Deidara is so nice! He was the whole reason I'm with you today. Without him I'd never have the courage to ask you here. What if Yumi gets with him and makes him a big meanie like her?"
Sasori made an unamused expression, was she trying to say he owed Deidara? "So, you want me to sabotage Deidara's date and then you'll be happy?"
The girl pouted, not sure if the boy was being sarcastic or literally meant it. "I don't know... Just Deidara deserves better... Even though he obviously doesn't think he does..."
Sasori sighed, pacing around the circle of desks. "Maybe you should talk to him then, but he might get mad."
The door of the classroom creaked open and Deidara and Yumi appeared. Couldn't they just leave her alone? Or at least Yumi anyway. "Sasori no Danna! Massy! My two favorite red heads, hm. We were going to go back to our room for drinks, you two should join us!" Deidara offered excitedly.
Sasori looked to Masahiko who just nodded. She didn't particularly want to, she just didn't want Yumi being alone with him.
Sasori and Deidara's room was just how she imagined it, Sasori's side was just like his actual room, neat with puppets lined up across the wall and Deidara's was messy with art supplies and clothes everywhere. Masahiko sat with Sasori on his bed while Yumi and Deidara took his. Breaking open the drink, Deidara poured everyone a shot.
Masahiko made an uneasy face at the drink and Sasori looked at her with worry. "Is everything okay?"
"I've never drank before... So I'm a bit nervous." The girl blushed.
"Come on, it's one shot, it's not going to kill you." Yumi rolled her eyes.
"Yeah, well I'm going to kill you if you talk to her that way again." The red head glared intensely. He really disliked this girl.
Deidara made an uneasy expression, he just wanted everyone to get along but Yumi was really making it difficult. He always admired how Sasori would speak his mind no matter what the situation so, he wasn't mad at his Danna. Honestly, Deidara was thinking the same thing.
"Hmph, whatever." Yumi snorted, gulping down her shot.
Sasori turned to Masahiko, "You should try it, don't worry I'll keep an eye on you." He could understand her worry. Sasori liked being in control so, he would have a few drinks but never enough to get drunk.
"Okay Sasori." The girl agreed, sipping it gingerly. She closed her eyes, it tasted strange but a bit uplifting and fuzzy feeling. She didn't want to have too many, scared she might lose her self control. Losing her self control around two gorgeous men that she had feelings for, yes she came to terms that she had feelings for both, and also a bitch she hated wasn't a good idea.
Yumi giggled after her third or fourth shot, her cheeks turning pink. "Oh, Deidara I'm so buzzed right now, I might ride you in front of your two friends."
Deidara blushed bright red but didn't move or say anything. She moved her hand along Deidara's chest, going lower, about to dip her hand in his pants when, Masahiko jolted over and swatted her hand away.
"Get off of Deidara, you tramp!" The girl said angrily, her usually sweet expression changing to pissed off. Deidara's eyes widened, completely in shock at what was happening. Sasori was quite shocked too but he had a feeling something like this would happen eventually.
Yumi growled, "Deidara's not your date so, why don't you mind your own fucking business!?"
"No, but he's my best friend and I don't appreciate you turning him into some man whore!" Masahiko shouted back. She was really showing Sasori and Deidara a new side of her... Maybe it was the alcohol... Maybe it was her rage, but she didn't even care right now and just wanted to speak her mind.
The bluenette raised her hand, about to slap Masahiko before Deidara grabbed her arm. "Yumi, I want you to leave, hm." The blond said sternly. "It's not only Masahiko who you're pissing off."
Yumi made a disgusted face before getting up to her feet. "Fine, Deidara. Have fun touching yourself tonight because you could have had all of -this-!" She pointed towards herself before storming out of the room.
Maybe it was the aftershock but Masahiko broke down after she left, feeling so ashamed and embarrassed. She had never felt intensely about anything, ever! Deidara probably hated her now! "Oh, Deidara!" The girl sobbed, falling to his chest. "I'm really sorry I chased your date away."
The blond darted his eyes towards Sasori, who just looked at the situation awkwardly. At least Danna wasn't upset his date was now crying in his arms, Deidara thought hopefully. "It's okay, really." He smiled slightly, rubbing her back comfortingly. "She was making me uncomfortable honestly so, I'm glad you did that, hm."
The girl continued to sob, "T-thank you, Deidara but I-I still feel like a total idiot."
Deidara made an unsure expression... What was he supposed to say? He was holding Sasori's girl in his arms with him watching him like a hawk. "Sasori, do you want to take her back to her dorm, hm?" The blond suggested.
"It's okay, Deidara. I'm not very good at comforting people so I think you should."
"Oh Sasori!" Masahiko exclaimed, turning around and hugging the red head tightly, making him jolt from shock. "I really did have fun tonight so, I'm sorry it had to end like this. Please don't be mad."
Sasori wasn't really sure what to think. Her outburst had definitely confused him... If she really cared about Deidara that much, should he be worried? Or was she just being an average woman, doing useless things?
Deidara chuckled, "Danna's not really a people person so you're not going to get much of a response, hm. Come on, let's go back to your dorm." Masahiko nodded, giving Sasori one more sympathetic look before leaving.
Once they made it to her room, Masahiko plopped down on her bed and to her surprise Deidara sat down with her. "I'm not going to leave until you crack a smile, hm!" The blond said with determination.
The girl sighed, she had calmed down a lot during the walk to her dorm. "Well I guess you should have brought pajamas then..." She looked down at the floor sadly before a pair of underwear caught her eye. She never expected guests so she rarely cleaned! Blushing bright red, she kicked them under the bed hoping the boy didn't see.
Deidara chuckled, "Polkadots? That's cute."
Masahiko pouted, still blushing, "Pervert."
Putting his finger up scoldingly, Deidara shook his head, "Nuh-uh. I was just making a comment on the artistic pattern you chose." That was Deidara for her. At least he wasn't mad but she still felt bad about ruining Sasori's night.
"Deidara, turn around for a second, I want to put my pajamas on." To her surprise, Deidara didn't argue and just turned around. She'd never gotten changed with a boy around before... especially not one she may have fallen in love with... Masahiko slipped out of the dress, just in her bra and panties... She blushed ten shades of red, don't turn around, Deidara! Whatever you do!
Although... part of her wanted Deidara to turn around... to like what he saw and... Ah, she was hopeless! Maybe she was just as horny as Yumi... No, that was impossible. And she actually had feelings for Deidara. The girl picked out a pair of black shorts and a pink t-shirt with a pony on it.
"Ahh, come on woman! I -hate- waiting!" Deidara made an exaggerated sigh, making the girl flinch and almost fall over from shock. Deidara chuckled then, "I'm just getting you ready for when you marry Sasori."
The girl pouted from behind him, "Well, thank you... If he ever wants to speak to me again." Deidara made a frustrated expression, although she coudn't see it.
"It's hard to say... I couldn't really tell what he was thinking, hm."
After she had changed she tapped Deidara on the shoulder, "Okay, I'm done."
"Oh! A pony, how kawaii!" Deidara gushed, mocking her.
Masahiko frowned, laying back on her bed, "Shut up!"
"So, what do I get to wear, hm? Or should I sleep in my underwear?" The boy put his finger up to his lip innocently. Wait, he was really serious about spending the night?! And he was going to what...?! "There might be some pajamas in the drawer there!" She pointed. Did she really want Deidara rummaging though her drawers? But she was cozy and mentally exhausted.
The blond helped himself, picking out a pair of pajamas with bunnies on them. "These will look really cute on me, hm?" Masahiko just nodded. He took down his hair from the half pony tail and starting taking off his suit... He never told her to look away so did that mean it was okay to look? The girl stared at him, her face heating up. Deidara never looked at her, just concentrating on taking off his clothes, so she could look, right?
"Do you like what you see, hm?" The blond winked, undoing the last button on his shirt and sliding it to the floor. Deidara was... so hot! And even that was an understatement!
"Ahh! You didn't tell me not to look!" Masahiko said, flustered.
Deidara smirked, "What did you think I was doing, hm? I'm obviously undressing, pervert. I'm going to take off my pants now so if you want to keep watching or look away now?"
Masahiko bit her lip and ended up looking away, she really wanted to see but she didn't want him thinking she was a pervert. After Deidara pulled the pajama pants up, he got in her bed and joined her under the covers. Why was he doing this?! Was he -trying- to tease her? He wasn't wearing a shirt either so she could see his perfectly toned chest. He was muscular but still skinny and the very sight of him almost pulled her over the edge.
"You really like cute things, don't you?" Deidara asked thoughtfully.
She almost thought he noticed her checking him out before she realized he was just looking around her room. She did have a lot of stuffed animals... Probably more than a teenage girl should. But they were so darn cute! Masahiko nodded her head enthusiastically, "Yes! And I recently got a new addition to my collection and now he's not allowed to leave!" She giggled cutely, "I'm meaning you, by the way."
Deidara chuckled, "You said you couldn't flirt yesterday, well that was pretty good, hm."
Masahiko's face heated up. He thought she was...?! She was just joking! Though, not really, he was darn adorable. And so was her red headed date tonight. "Deidara!" The girl whined, "Are you really serious about spending the night? Wouldn't it look strange to Sasori if you were supposed to take me to my dorm and then you don't come back?" She honestly hoped Deidara had something planned to stay, she would probably just beat herself up about tonight if he left.
"That's fine, hm! I'll just text him and say I bumped into some friends on the way back and then ended up staying the night elsewhere." Deidara said confidently. Well, that worked. The blond tried to grab his pants without leaving the bed (to get his phone) but he couldn't reach.
Masahiko couldn't help but giggle, "You can do it, Deidara!"
The blond tried to reach further, hanging off the bed more before he fell on the floor. "Owww." He moaned, taking the phone out of his pants and getting back up on the bed.
"You're so cool." The girl chuckled and Deidara just snorted.
"I am, aren't I?" He typed away his message to Sasori and shortly afterwards put the phone in front of her face.
[Text from: Sasori no Danna]
= Okay. Did she say anything about me?
"Well, did -she-?" Deidara chuckled, "See, he still likes you, hm." He was glad he didn't screw up her relationship with Sasori.
Masahiko blushed... Sasori still liked her? And here she was checking out his best friend... Maybe she was worse than Yumi? "Uhmm, I don't really know what he expects me to say. He didn't have any response when I apologized..." The girl admitted sadly.
Deidara rubbed his chin thoughtfully, "Maybe that you're okay now and would like to see him tomorrow, hm?"
"That sounds good!" The girl nodded, getting closer to her friend so she could see the cellphone.
[Text from: Sasori no Danna]
= Okay. I'll text her tomorrow.
Deidara turned over towards her and her face heated up by how close she'd gotten. "Is everything okay?" The blond asked, raising an eyebrow.
"No Deidara, I have a huge problem!" The girl shouted flustered, furthering to confuse him.
"Hm? What's wrong?"
Masahiko backed up, afraid from what she was going to tell him. It was eating her away on the inside, she just -had- to let him know! She would go crazy! And Deidara was sort of her only friend... Well, besides Sasori but he definitely wouldn't understand. She blushed and nibbled her lip, looking anywhere except in his eyes, although she could tell he was looking at hers. "Deidara... I think I might like you... Like really like! Maybe even love! I can't get you out of my head!" The girl exclaimed passionately but confused at her own emotions.
Deidara's eyes widened in shock.
Maybe getting rejected was just what she needed to stop these feelings. "What do I do, Deidara?" She asked desperately.
To be continued...
