Chapter 2
Deidara grimaced for a second before he came out of his bow, "It is a pleasure, isn't it, hmm?" A large grin forced it's way on to his lips, "He believe every word Orochimaru-san, just like you said he would, un! It was almost to easy to convince him to come back!" A loud laugh came from his throat as he said that, he features held a look of amusement as he gazed at the two.
The snake grinned, "of course. He's too trusting for his own good."
Sasori opened his eyes, looking at the blond with an expression mixed between a glare and something else. He wasn't sure what himself, but he couldn't get it to disappear. Suddenly feeling the man's long tongue travel up his neck, Sasori trashed slightly, this only gaining him a trip through the air before he hit a tree a little way to the side. He'd forgotten the man loathed it when he didn't obey and let things happen. The redhead landed on the ground, not bothering to get back up again.
The vampire watched with bored eyes as Sasori was thrown against the tree. "I'm sorry to have to leave so soon after arriving un; but, Orochimaru-san, I really need to get going. My list seems to be getting longer and longer these days!" Deidara chuckled a light, warming sound, "So if I could get my reward and be on my way, yeah?"
The long haired man nodded and headed over to the blond. "Of course." He said, pulling out a small bag. "This should be it. You get no more or less."
Deidara took the bag with a smile, "I would except nothing more, Orochimaru-san, un." He nodded and began the walk back towards the cave he had spent the night in. "Like always it has been a pleasure working for you, yeah." He tied the bag to his waist-band, smiling again at the snake.
Then in a flash he threw a median sized object and Sasori under his arm. The hunter took off at a run, raised his hand to form a symbol and yelled, "Katsu" behind them a large explosion was heard. He sifted Sasori around, and was now holding him bridal-style.
"So~ How's that for an exit, Sleeping Beauty, un?"
The explosion rung through the forest, sending the body of Orochimaru flying in the opposite direction. Dead or not, Sasori didn't know, but he was far away from the snake like man, and that was all that counted at the moment. Looking up at Deidara, the redhead scowled. "A beautiful one." He replied dully and maybe a tad sarcastically.
Deidara pouted, "Are you being sarcastic, yeah?"
"No." The redhead said, and then he went silent. "Okay, maybe a little bit."
The vampire laughed and slowed to a walk, "And here I thought you were an asshole who pissed everyone off, un!" Even though he had, indeed, came to a walk, Deidara had yet to put Sasori down. "you even have a sense of humor, yeah!"
Smiling ever so slightly, the redhead turned his head to look ahead of them. He still had to thank the blond, but he wasn't sure when, where or how to do it. Could he just say thank you, or what? Eugh, he'd take it when the time came.
Deidara, not missing the small smile, grinned in response. "So, un? Where am I taking you, hmm?"
"Don't know. Normally I'd say back to my pack, but I didn't really listen when they told me who to hunt for, and coming back empty handed doesn't go without punishment." Sasori replied, giving a sigh.
"Then don't go back, yeah." Deidara stated as a matter of fact.
"Then where do I go?" He asked.
"I asked you first, un!" The blond said childishly, then his face went serious again, "Well~ I have been thinking about leaving my own clan… you could travel with me," he shrugged, "if you want, that is."
He nodded slightly, considering it thoroughly. It had it's up and downs he guessed. Less downs of course, but still enough to be considered. Then he nodded, "alright."
"Really, un?" He smiled at the vampire in his arms.
"Yes. I already said so, didn't I?" He said, looking back up at Deidara. His neck was starting to get slightly stiff though, so holding it up any longer would probably give him a cramp. Letting out a soft sigh, he let his head come to a rest on Deidara's shoulder.
Deidara smiled grew as he contained to walk, "So, where do you want to go now, Sleeping Beauty, yeah?"
"Wherever you want to go, Deidara." Sasori replied, closing his eyes as the blond walked through the forest, still carrying him. He couldn't quite understand why, but wasn't complaining.
"…Do you want to take a bath or something, un?" Deidara asked innocently, "I mean you must be feeling pretty disgusting after Orochimaru had his hands all over you and stuff."
The redhead reopened his eyes, staring up at Deidara with a confused expression for a second. "Oh... I'm used to it, so I don't really feel anything of it anymore, but sure. I wouldn't mind a bath."
Deidara smiled down at him, underneath that smile was the grin of a pervert, "Well let's get you some water, then!" He took off running towards the natural hot springs, which resided at the top of the mountain.
Why... the sudden change of pace? Sasori blinked, not understanding why the blond was running so suddenly. Then again, he was quite dense when it came to things like these, so it was to be expected. Any other time though, he'd beat you when it came to thinking. He closed his eyes again and just let himself relax through the run.
Smiling the vampire made his way up the steep rock easily, his step light as to not awake his Sleeping Beauty… wait, his? Deidara frowned looking at the lovely face of the vampire in his arms; his striking, deep brown eyes were un-fittingly closed. He sighed as he skidded to a stop near the clear water.
The hand that wasn't faced against the blond gripped Deidara's shirt lightly as the redhead continued on with his rest. He was only half sleeping though, and could wake up quite easily if he just let himself.
Deidara raised an eyebrow at the hand that held on to his shirt. He decided not to wake the sleeping vampire, and, instead, sat down on a flat stone. He let his thoughts wonder about, and didn't notice that he was gently playing with the soft red locks.
Feeling the light (soothing and nice) tugging of his hair, Sasori reopened his eyes, looking up at Deidara, at the same time unfisting his fingers from the blond's shirt once he realized it was there.
To deep in thought to realize that Sasori had awaken, or what his hand was doing; Deidara continued play with his hair, twisting the strands around in his fingers tenderly. His mind focused on what the two vampires would do next. He needed to visit a certain target. Bu what about after that? Deidara had told him that he was leaving his clan, but what about the fact that he was also considering quitting his 'job'?
Sasori continued to stare up at Deidara for a little while before he finally let out a small growl. It wasn't anything like the ones the blond got when they first met (which was only a few hours ago), just to tell him that he was awake, and that... that was it, he guessed. Yes, that was it.
Deidara was shaken out of his thoughts by the soft growl, he looked down at Sasori questioningly before he realized what had happened. He grinned sheepishly, "Sorry, un?" Deidara unwrapped his arms from around Sasori and put his feet on the ground for him.
Once he was on his feet, Sasori looked out over the water and smiled slightly. It looked great. Sparing Deidara a small glance, still holding the smile, he lifted his shirt up and over his head. His baggy sweatpants followed soon after. Then he slipped into the water, sighing in content as he felt the liquid surround him.
Deidara watched greedily as the fabric was removed, gazing at the small body as the mussels pulled and relaxed to make it move. A small pout slid over his lips when it disappeared under the cover of water.
Deciding that also needed a bath, Deidara walked calmly over to the steamy water. He placed his clothes next to Sasori's as he slid in also.
Sasori let himself sink down until only his face was visible. It was about then he realized the blond apparently had decided to take a bath as well. Good... company; it was better to be two.
Deidara glance over to the completely covered (to his dismay) vampire. "So, which clan did you desert, hmm?"
Sasori turned, looking at Deidara. "Didn't go by any name, really. It has it's camp far down in the south though." he replied before diving under the rest of the way.
Coming back up, Sasori shook his head, sending water drops through the air.
Staring, Deidara was really started to hope that Sasori wouldn't notice. "… Is it powerful, un?"
The redhead shrugged, looking around himself, sparing Deidara a small glance too as his eyes shifted around. "I guess. Those who are strong... are quite strong, but I don't really know I haven't been there for more than three weeks."
Deidara's eyes widened, "How old are you?"
"Seventeen." the redhead replied, keeping out the fact that he'd turn eighteen in less than a month. "What about you?"
Deidara's mouth fell widen open, he closed it and opened it again before replying, "Um roughly two hundred, un…"
The redhead moved over to where Deidara was and studied the man's face before he shrugged and leaned against one of the walls. "Oldie."
The blond scoffed, "Well, at least I'm not young and weak." He pouted crossing his arms over his chest in s childish way.
"I-I'm not weak!" Sasori growled, though his voice clearly told he knew very well he was far from strong. To prove his `point´ though, he splashed some water into the blond's face, grinning ever so slightly.
"Oh no! I'm soooo scared of the evil vampire who has amazing powers of water splashing," Deidara wailed his hand waving in the air. Then he grinned and returned the favor, dipping under the water; good thing vampires have no use of breathe.
Sasori glared at the spot where the blond had disappeared before he, too, dived under. He opened his eyes and looked around almost immediately spotting the blond. Sasori, however, did need to breathe, for reasons he had never told anyone before, so he would have to get back up soon.
He reached out for Deidara, and took a hold of the man's wrist.
Deidara grabbed on to Sasori's wrist pulling on the younger vampire forcing him farther into the water with him.
Sasori's eyes widened slightly. He still had some time before he needed more air, but if it continued like this, something could go wrong. He sent the blond a glare once they were face to face and then tried to free himself, but to no vain.
Deidara grinned, thinking the expressions were only play not serious.
Okay, it was getting serious now. He'd been under for at least a minute, and he didn't swim enough to actually have lungs able to hold his breath forever. He was starting to look a little worried now, trying to get away once more. He would run out of air soon. Any minute now.
The vampire's grin was lost as he became confused. With a sudden realization he shot up out of the water. He glared at Sasori as they broke the water, "You have to breathe?! Why the hell didn't you fucking tell me sooner!"
The redhead gasped for air for a few times before he looked away from the blond slightly. "A little difficult under water..." He muttered.
"Ok, then explain now, un!" Deidara's voice soften as he spoke holding the smaller boy at arms length from himself.
He shrugged, "I age like you do, but I can die much easier... I have fangs, but I don't really need to kill for blood. So, I'm more of a half breed than anything else."
"And why is that, hm? How did you become a halfbreed?" Deidara himself had never meant one but he had heard stories on them.
"How am I supposed to know?! Both my parents were full blood, besides, I don't know anything else about them or my past life before the snake. Stop hissing!" He snapped, knowing full well that half breeds weren't exactly well liked by the full bloods.
Deidara sighed, "I'm sorry about yelling at you… I just wasn't thinking, un…" He cast his eyes downward waiting for the redhead response.
Sasori nodded slightly, sinking into the water just a little bit as he looked back at Deidara. "Forget it... not like it matters anyway. Though, I guess, you only believe that what you are shouldn't make a difference if you're one of the hated."
"What! Of course you shouldn't be hated just because you're a half breed, or if you have red head or anything else, un!" Deidara stated,
Sasori's face lit up and he threw himself around the blond's neck, hugging him tightly.
Deidara was in shock for a moment before he wrapped his own arms around the smaller vampire's waist.
"What, if I may ask, is this hug for, hmm?" He asked with a chuckle.
"Ah... I'm not really sure, I just acted without thinking." Sasori confessed, letting a small smile play his lips.
"I don't think I mind," Deidara replied lightly, letting his own mouth sub-come to a smile. He leaned forward a bit, toward the younger boys red lips, not sure what he was doing.
Sasori blinked, looking at the blond's face in confusion, Deidara's eyes and mouth the most. Everything of it was getting closer by the second, and he wasn't sure what to do. He had absolutely no idea what to do. Of course he'd been kissed before, but that had been Orochimaru, and the man hadn't been so... gentle, as it seemed the blond would be.
Now, to the most important question. Did he mind? He wasn't sure, but he didn't want to mind it though, so why not? Besides, he kind of owed it to the blond, and he kind of wanted to as well... just a little bit. He could see his sight disappear more for each second, he was moving to, and that towards the blond. Sasori let his eyes search Deidara's face, his eyes and mouth, for a couple of long seconds as he stopped his movement, waiting for the blond to come the rest of the way.
Deidara noticed the red head was also moving forward, did that mean he wanted it to? The vampire really had no idea. Sure he had kissed people before, but it never meant anything, and this surely would. Swallowing all of his doubts and worries, Deidara pressed his lips to Sasori's as gently as he could, as if to lessen the pain if the other was to pull away.
Feeling the contact of their lips meeting, the redhead closed his eyes completely. It was as he'd thought; much better than Orochimaru. Also, it did seem quite right as well. Their lips were just barely touching though, so he leaned a little closer as well, so it would be more contact. He did, of course, want it to continue being gentle seeing as he'd never felt it like this before.
Deidara's eyes, also, closed on contact, he felt his stomach flutter when Sasori pressed back, but didn't try to push to on. He pulled back after awhile, remembering that Sasori did, in fact, have need of air. He didn't look the boy, afraid of want he might see. Angry, hurt, sadness; any of it would have torn him apart right now.
After a little while, Sasori pulled back and took in air. Then his head came to rest on the blond's shoulder before he nuzzled his neck lightly, happily even. "I wish that my first kiss had been like this one." He mumbled into Deidara's neck just out of the blue, smiling lightly.
"Y-you liked it, un?" The blond ask, slightly stunned by that, he was sure that once the other had come to his senses he would be upset, angry even.
The redhead nodded slightly seeing as the other would feel this.
"Oh…ok." Deidara tighten his arms slightly, holding the boy closer to him.
Sasori rested against the blond, his shut eyes starting to feel slightly heavy even if he wasn't tired.
"How 'bout we get dressed, hmm?" The vampire asked softly, pulling him back to look Sasori in the eye, "Sleeping Beauty."
