Hey guys! Yay, I actually can't believe I got a chapter up for this week because it's the middle of exam week, but I seriously needed a break. I had to write a whole short story for the ELA one plus about, 5 Essays D: So yeah, I hope you guys enjoy this :) Please R.&R.

Sasori tells me he loves my hands. "Nothing is perfect," he says, "I'd rather have a flaw on the outside like you Deidara, than on the inside like me. Unlike you, I don't know what to expect from other people. I don't even know what to expect from myself." Sasori is depressed. For fear of not being accepted he can no longer be himself. I wrap my arms around his waist and rest my chin on his head. We fall back on the bed and I whisper in his ear.
"I love you." Sasori looks up at me with wide eyes, he looks like he is about to cry but he is no longer sad. I realize I never told him that before. I start to panic a bit. What if he doesn't feel the same? What if I just blew everything we had and I can no longer see him ever again? But then everything melts away and my heart flutters into my throat.
"I love you too Dei."

I decide to film the auditions on Friday for the guys. Nobody else has the common sense to screw in a light bulb never mind work a camera. The rest of the guys practice a little while we wait for people to show up. The sound real good but we're all pretty anxious. Our anxiety only furthered when the first guy showed up in Cowboy boots and a ten gallon hat.
"Y'all are real good! Know any country?" this guy… was he serious? What a way to start the day.
"Erm… No," says Kakuzu.
"Well that's a darn shame now isn't it?" and just like that, without another word him and his western drawl walked away just as sudden as he came. His spurs on his cowboy boots jingled with each step. When he was far out of sight Kisame let out a string of giggles.
The next few auditions were terrible. One guy just screamed into the microphone, not saying anything, just screaming until Sasori stopped him. Another guy must have thought the sign said must like 'punk and emus' because he came in wearing a full emu suit. The whole band laughed so hard we almost pissed our pants. Where the hell he got it I don't know but I would pay to see that again. Six more people came in and weren't too bad, I still think I could make big money selling this video or using it as some sort of blooper reel.

On Saturday I rush to Sasori's place to show him and the guys the tape. I added music to the background and cut out what we didn't want. When I arrive I see a boy auditioning. His hair is long and black and his bangs hang in his face. His eyes are closed and when he opened his mouth, the most beautiful sound in the world came out.
His voice was low and smooth and he made my mouths hang open. He was amazing. No accompany or anything he just sang. It was slow and sweet and made my brain melt. It was over far too soon and when I finally opened my eyes I was staring right into his. They were so deep, and so full of emotion. I could not move and by the look of it nobody else could either.
"So, did you like it?"
I soon found out that the band's new lead singer's name was Itachi Uchiha.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To celebrate we all head out to 'The Pit' to get trashed. I swear I could see Kisame checking out Itachi's ass but we all know Kisame would never admit it. Only his real friends know his secret too. Kisame is bisexual but if his parents found out he would be kicked out of his house and onto the streets. A little like Sasori's grandmother now that I think about it…
I'm supposed to stay at Sasori's house tonight but as he stumbles past the front door his grandmother is waiting for him. Before I enter the kitchen from the entrance I hear her yelling. She tells him he shouldn't be getting wasted at such a young age. She then says what a bad influence I am. She doesn't want Sasori to hang out with a freak like me. I think I hear a scraping sound and Sasori starts to heave but there are black dots clouding my vision and there is pressure on the sides of my head that make me want to burst.
His grandma says "I know you've been friends a long time now, but you should stop seeing that boy. Find someone smarter, richer, prettier; I don't care just as long as it's not him." Sasori's eyes go wide and mine clench shut. I slam the door I had been inching towards as I run out of his house and back to the safety of my room.
I suppose grandma Chiyo was left alone in the kitchen because Sasori seemed to get tired of listening to her too. I feel the tears start to build up but the pressure behind my eyes is not released. Nobody likes a crybaby.
Why does the floor of my room look a lot closer than it did a second ago?

Wow yes this was short.
Ok there you go. Hope you enjoyed it! This was one of my favourite chapters but I think I botched the audition part of it :/ I revised that part so many times but it just doesn't seem to flow. Thanks again for reading and please wish me luck on my exams! I might need it…..
