Chapter 3: Suspicion

Another three months passed and everyone had all figured out that it was no joke messing with Lucia now. She was already short-tempered, now, she exploded at anything and anyone. She wasn't afraid of spiders anymore, though. She had developed a thirst to kill them, actually. Chieko was about the only one who didn't get on her nerves, probably because she was such a calm and funny person. Sasori, on the other hand, was too calm, and pissed her off.

Mai was generally annoying, and it wasn't any better now. The others were okay, but it was boring Lucia if no one had any jokes in store. The baby growing in her stomach was so extremely impatient of something, and it was annoying Lucia even further. And the kicks to her stomach had gotten much worse now that the baby was getting bigger and stronger.

When Lucia went to bed at night, Itachi was the only one daring to walk into the room, the others being terrified of waking her. In the day when she was taking a nap or anything, Sasuke was the only one she wanted to talk to. He didn't understand why, but she did. Lucia wanted to get to know him better, and she felt there was something he was hiding from them. And he was going to spill soon.

Lucia was gonna make sure of it. "So, Sasuke, what are you not telling me?" she asked him, her eyes narrowed.

Sasuke frowned. "I'm not hiding anything from you," he said coolly.

"Now, that tone told me you're absolutely hiding something from me," Lucia said.

"I am not hiding anything from you," Sasuke said, with pressure on 'I'.

"Someone else is hiding something from me?" Lucia asked, and then sighed.

Sasuke looked slightly guilty.

"You've said A now, Sasuke. Now you have to say B," Lucia said calmly.

Sasuke shook his head. "I can't," he said.

"Come on," Lucia said harshly.

"I'm gonna go before you try to kill me," Sasuke said and in two seconds, Sasuke was out of the door.

Lucia looked around. "Itachi, I'm coming to talk to you," she said into the air, and walked out of the bed, and towards the door.

Then the baby kicked her. Lucia grit her teeth at the well-known pain. She felt her normal nausea act up. But like always, she simply stabilized her feet and walked down the stairs, holding on tightly to the railing.

"Itachi?" she asked into the living-room.

"He's fucking out in the fucking stable," Hidan said.

"Okay," Lucia said, walking out of the room.

Asuka looked over at Hidan. "We have got to do something about your fucking cursing before that fucking baby comes into the world," she said calmly.

Then she clapped her hands in front of her mouth.

Hidan laughed. "That's what you get for loving me," he said, grinning wickedly.

"Oh! That was a sentence without 'fuck'," Asuka said proudly.

"Oh, shut up," Hidan said, still smiling, though.

Asuka grinned and walked over to him, sitting down in his lap. "I love you Hidan," she said calmly, stroking his face.

Hidan looked down at her. Then he looked up again, almost shyly.

"Whatever," he said silently.

Asuka snickered.

"Itachi?" Lucia asked into the stable.

"I think he's in the paddock with Ita," Deidara said, putting the saddle on Dabi.

Mai was also there.

"Okay," Lucia said, slightly tired.

"Are you all right, Lu?" Mai asked her, and Lucia nodded.

"Just tired. It happens," she said and smiled to her friend.

Then she walked out, just as the baby kicked her again.

"Will you stop doing that?" she asked the big tummy annoyed.

"Stop what?" came Itachi's voice.

Lucia turned to him with narrowed eyes. "About bloody time you showed up, you idiot!" she hissed angrily, but not loudly, as Ita was standing very close; she didn't want to scare the horse.

Itachi looked at her confused.

Lucia took a deep breath, and then frowned. "I don't remember what I was gonna ask you…" she said annoyed.

Itachi sighed. "You do that a lot," he said, and put his arm around her waist like always.

"You should go inside. I'll be there soon," Itachi said, and Lucia nodded.

Itachi kissed her cheek and then walked into the stable while Lucia walked back to the house.

Mai looked at Itachi when he walked into the stable. "You look really tired, Itachi. Are you all right?" she asked him, actually sounding slightly concerned.

"Yes, it is nothing too serious," he said, giving a short glance to Deidara.

The latter looked down at his feet. The thought was also bothering him. The thought of having to leave Mai behind.

"Okay, the aura just got freezing cold. What's going on, guys?" Mai asked them, now with a frown.

"It's nothing," Deidara said.

Mai turned to him. "Don't lie to me, Deidara. I'm worthy of more than that," she said coldly.

Deidara nodded. "I know that. Which is why I said it's nothing. You're worthy of more," he said.

Mai sighed. "Whatever it is, I will figure it out," she said and added: "I mean, it can't be that bad."

This lead to both Deidara and Itachi snorting. Yes. Itachi snorting.

Mai frowned. "It is?" she asked.

Itachi went back to his normal careface. Deidara looked guiltily at the horse he was saddling. Mai looked between the both of them, and she knew that this was as serious as cancer. She turned serious.

"What is going on, you guys?" she asked, her voice full of concern and almost fright.

It was scary the way they looked at each other, as if they would ever be best friends. The two boys got along, but Mai kept catching herself wondering on how long it actually took before they got along.

"You will tell me. Eventually. Just you wait," she said and walked out of the stable.

Chieko was lying in her bed. It was four months since she heard the conversation in the kitchen, and she had heard a lot more than just that over the weeks. They seemed to have a weekly meeting in whether or not they would return to their world. A lot of opinions had risen around this, she had noted, but Sasori hadn't said anything, and it was worrying Chieko that he might actually want to leave her. She sighed. Then the door opened.

"Chieko? Is something wrong?" Sasori's voice asked her.

She looked at him.

"No," she said calmly, and put on her normal smile.

Then she rose from the bed and skipped over to Sasori, kissing him lightly on the cheek before jumping down the staircase, her smile still on, no matter how fake it felt. But one thing was sure: She would find out what this was all about.

Did you enjoy it? I hope so! So, I'm leaving to Barcelona tonight… 3.15 A.M.! Anyways, I won't be able to write for a week, so don't expect an update for two weeks. Maybe if I'm really quick, though! Anyways, I know what this story is going to be about, and it will be much more drama/action in this story, so I will most likely upgrade it to M for violence and of course Hidan and Asuka's language. Anyways, please review!

You know you love me
