Chapter 3: My brother's boyfriend is Hot.

It didn't take long to reach Sasori's apartment. He lived on the last floor of one of the most elegant buildings of the city, he parked in his personal parking space and lead the way to the elevator. Ayumi was filled with excitement but she was also nervous. They've spoken about the mystery blond but she had no idea what to expect. Would they get along? What if he didn't like her? She had so many questions she wished she had the answers to.

"Ayu" She was snapped out of her thoughts "before we go in, I need to tell you something"

"Are you finally going to tell me his name?" she meant it as a joke.

"Yes, now listen. There are reasons why you two haven't met until now" he's said those words before, never told her those reasons but she had a feeling he was about to "You see, we're not the only ones with reputations to maintain"

"So he's from another rich family?"

"Not exactly, although he is well known and I know you've heard of him" so he was dating someone who was more or less a celebrity and she knew him. The elevator doors opened and they started walking "he'll probably like the attention but please, try not to freak out too much"

"Me? Freak out? I'd never" the more he spoke, the more her curiosity grew.

They stopped in front of a door. Sasori pulled out his keys "Well I guess this is it" he looked her in eyes "his name is Deidara" That name was pretty unique and she only knew of one person called Deidara. He was an artist as well as a fashion designer and did some modelling sometimes. She was fond of his designs and owned a lot of his clothes. He didn't come from wealth and had to work hard to get where he now was. She's been to a few of his shows and seen him on stage presenting his latest trends but never got to meet him. She could tell from the way he spoke that he was passionate about his art, much like her brother.

Indeed she admired the guy and respected him as she knew they were the same age and he accomplished so much by himself but there was no way Sasori was talking about the same Deidara, right? Once the door opened, they walked in and Ayumi froze in place. Her eyes wide and fixed on the male sitting at the kitchen island. No freaking way. If only her best friend was there with her.

The blond looked up as Sasori walked up to him "Hi Danna" his face lit up as the red head leaned down and kissed him softly. Sasori grabbed his hand, pulling him to his feet. He whispered something in Deidara's ear but Ayumi was too far away to make out the words, their attention now on her.

"Deidara, this is my sister Ayumi" The couple now stood in front of her.

"Hi, it's nice to meet you, yeah" the blond said giving her one of his bright smiles, showing off his pearly whites.

"Ayumi, this is my boyfriend-"

"Deidara Katsuyoku" she said calmly, taking control of her senses "The pleasure is all mine" she told her brother she wouldn't freak out and that's exactly what she wasn't going to do, inside her mind was a different story. She heard rumours about the blond artist being gay but it was never confirmed, not that it mattered anyway.

"I heard a lot about you" Deidara said "I've wanted to meet you for a while actually, yeah"

"Well then, that makes two of us"

"Is that so?" he sounded amused, a smirk on his face "hey you've been to my shows before, haven't you?" so he knew, either he was very observant or Sasori told him that his sister was a fan of his "You know I'm working on a new collection and I'd love to show it to you before it goes public, yeah" an exclusive look at the work of a genius, she'd be crazy to refuse. The two sat on the couch and talked, the conversation flowing smoothly.

Forgetting about the stranger staying with her father back at home, Ayumi enjoyed the company of someone new who she did like. Out of all the guys Sasori could've been with, she sure was glad it was this particular blond. Speaking of the red head, he gave up trying to keep up with them. Once they started to get to know each other, they might as well have been the only people in the world. Of course he hoped they would get along but he didn't imagine they would connect so fast, so easily. He went to take a shower then went to his room to work on his art, disappearing from the world.

Ayumi stayed in the guest room which was across her brother's room. She woke up sometime later that night- blame it on the jetlag- to get a glass of water and she could've sworn she heard some interesting noises coming from Sasori's room. Walking quickly past his door, she dived back into bed trying to fall asleep. Just as she was about to slip away, she heard her phone ring on the night stand. She checked the caller id, not realising a slight smile has taken over lips.

"Do you have any idea what time it is, Hidan?" she said, faking an angry tone

"As a matter of fact I do. It's right there on my phone"

"Smartass"

"You like it" she could practically hear his smirk. The line went quiet for a minute until he spoke again "No but seriously, I didn't know if you were still up or not"

"Why did you call then?"

"I just wanted to check on ya" there it was, that feeling she got in her stomach "your dad called me earlier to drive him to some damn restaurant"

"That's part of your job description, isn't it?"

"Yeah but you weren't there" it might have been her imagination but she thought he almost sounded sad "he had some chick with him as well" his voice got quieter as if he was speaking more to himself "the boobs on her though, fucking hell"

"Hidan!"

"Sorry" he was a man after all "they're probably fake, seriously, could pop them like balloons" she couldn't help but laugh at that "on the way back he told me they were getting hitched"

"That sounds about right"

"I'm sorry, I know you were close to your mom" they told each other a lot of the things in the dark. One night when she wasn't in the best of moods, she told him about her mother's death and how much she missed her dearly. She cried in his arms as he held her tightly and comforted her "This whole deal must suck. I wanted to make sure you were ok"

"Aren't you the sweet one?"

"Only for you babe" she had no idea how true that was. He never cared so much for any of his past girlfriends. When a girl was upset, he'd just let her go and figure it out for herself. Ayumi however was different and she confused him. He wasn't one to show affection and never claimed to be a romantic guy but this girl made him want to do things he would never consider before and that scared him. They knew a relationship wouldn't work out, their lives were too different and yet he was still by her side, Jashin knows why "you coming back tomorrow?"

"Unfortunately"

"You need a ride? I can pick you up" there she thought he sounded hopeful

"No I'm fine thanks" she yawned "I'll get a ride from Sasori"

"Hey, can I ask you something?"

"Sure" knowing him, it'd be something ridiculous. He couldn't handle a serious conversation for very long.

"What are you wearing?" she called it

"Wouldn't you like to know?"

"That's why I'm asking, woman"

"Well" she let out a moan intentionally, knowing what her next words would do to him "nothing at all" and she hung up. She cracked up laughing thinking about the state he must have been in. It was fun messing with him. She got a text shortly after calling her a tease and saying he'll get her back. She put her phone back on the stand and went to sleep with a smile on her face.

There! Another one done. Off to write some more.

Please leave a review and let me know what you think.

Until next time. Au revoir.
