Everyone thank KakuHidaHearts whom was the one that left the comment on dA mentioned in the first chapter. :3 I'm trying to finish this to help her own story, I Have My Reason.
I will be updating less often since my summer vacation is going to be over soon.
A week passed after the immortal duo discovered they were to have twins. Kakuzu was resting in the living room on the couch, watching the television set. It was what helped them keep up with events outside of their hiding place. Such as watching Itachi's little brother join the Akatsuki after his older brother faked his death in order to return to Beast Village. Kakuzu yawned loudly, drawing attention from the weasel whom was sitting besides him.
"Being pregnant seems to take a lot from you." Itachi noted dully.
"Fuck you." Kakuzu grumbled.
"I'll go get Hidan." Itachi sighed.
"You do that." Kakuzu leered.
Itachi went off to look for Hidan. Anytime Kakuzu started to sound 'pissy', Hidan would be the one to calm him down or take the hit. Not that he minded since Kakuzu was going to let them keep the babies. Hidan walked through the door, expecting something to be thrown or bad to be said. He was surprised to receive the opposite. Kakuzu was looking down at his stomach with a confused expression on his face. A moment later, he rested a hand over it and his eyes widened.
"Hidan, check this out!" Kakuzu ushered Hidan over and moved his hand to rest over the bump.
"Is your stomach bugging you again?" Hidan asked.
"Yeah but now I know why."
"Why?" However, seconds later, he got his answer, "The little bastards are kicking!"
"Yeah... pretty strong too." Kakuzu winced as another blow was dealt from within.
"Heh, wuss—Ow! Fucker!" Hidan hissed after Kakuzu kicked him to the floor.
"You try carrying two mother fucking brats, bitch!" the elder snapped, throwing the nearest thing – a cushion – at his lover.
"Oi, I'm fuckin' sorry!" Hidan yelped when the man grabbed a lamp and raised it above his head.
"I'm gonna be a fuckin' blimp." Kakuzu suddenly pouted, not lowering his weapon.
"N-No you're not, Kuzu-chan!" Hidan laughed his nervous laugh, "You're gonna be fucking gorgeous."
SMASH!
"A am not a bloody woman like you, bitch!"
"I'm not a fucking bitch either, bastard!"
Just another normal day around the hideout...
–
The third trimester arrived for Kakuzu and he currently had a bit of a dilemma. Hidan was under him sleeping while Kakuzu was wide awake and craving attention. He leaned down and nipped Hidan's ear. The bitten only smiled, still asleep until Kakuzu angrily dug a kunai through Hidan's heart.
"Wake up, bitch." He growled, licking blood from the blade.
"The fuck is your problem?" Hidan grumbled, earning another stab to the chest.
"Excuse me, but did you seriously ask what my fucking problem is?" Kakuzu snarled, applying more pressure.
"Ow, okay, okay! That's starting to hurt..." Hidan winced.
"'Okay' what?
"I get that you're fucking pregnant but, Jashin-damnit, what do you want?"
"... I can't remember..." Kakuzu sighed, unstraddling Hidan and getting off the bed, taking the kunai with him.
"Ugh. Stitch me back up, bastard." Hidan sat up, glaring at the hole in his chest. "I have a Jashinist gathering to go to tonight."
"You're leaving me?" Kakuzu turned around abruptly, glaring down at his partner, bloody kunai poised for another jab.
"Tch. Like you would come to a Jashinist gathering." Hidan scoffed.
"Of course not," Kakuzu took a threatening step foreward, "and you're not going either."
"As if you can fucking stop me!" Hidan snapped, getting to his feet.
"I can cut off your head and then I'll let you go." Kakuzu placed the blade at the Jashinist's throat.
"Wha-? You dumbfuck! How the hell do you expect me to get there?" Hidan pouted.
"That's sort of the point." He sighed, drawing blood.
"Y-You... you... Jashin-damnit! I hate you so fucking much right now!"
The smaller man's sudden outburst startled Kakuzu and he dropped the knife, taking a step back from Hidan. The zealot's face was contorted with disappointment and neglect but Kakuzu did not stop him from storming out of their room, slamming the door behind him. Kakuzu blinked a few times and found he was crying again and cursed his hormones. He sat on the bed, staring at his baby bump while taking deep, calming breaths. An hour later his concentration was broken by a knock on the door. He got back off the bed and rubbed his eyes to ensure they were dry.
"Are you alright, Kakuzu?" Sasori's voice sounded from the other side of the door.
"Of course I am." Kakuzu lied smoothly, "Why do you ask?"
"Hidan left saying he was going back to Yugakure." His answer made Kakuzu swing the door open.
"He what?" Kakuzu exclaimed.
"He left..." Sasori repeated.
"Damnit..." He took a shaky breath, hoping Hidan was not going to leave him for good.
"He looked really upset too..." Sasori added, raising a brow at Kakuzu's worried expression.
"Tell Phox Hidan and I are going on a personal mission around Yugakure. I'll send a messanger when I learn more..." He brushed past Sasori and donned his cloak and hood.
"Do you need an escort?" The puppet master dared to ask.
"Fuck no! I'm not some weak ass woman that needs looking after!" Kakuzu snapped, storming out of the house.
"... Deidara!" Sasori called his partner, "Go look over Kakuzu until he reaches Hidan but make sure they don't see you." He instructed.
"Yes, Sasori-danna, hm."
–
Kakuzu only traveled about fifteen minutes from his village when he collapsed on the ground. He had gotten out of shape and cursed himself for not training more often since his 'accident'. He rubbed his growling stomach and looked down when he felt a few kicks.
"Sorry guys, I don't have any food..." He rumbled, "I'm so tired too..." He began to nod off when Deidara arrived, landing nearby, worried about his friend.
"Wake up, Rag Doll, hm." Deidara stood in front of him, hands on his hips, wearing his anbu mask like Kakuzu and all the other former Akatsuki members did while outside.
"Go away, Fire Bomb." Kakuzu grumbled.
"I brought food." Deidara dug into the bag Sasori made him bring and handed two rice balls to Kakuzu.
Kakuzu growled but took them after someone kicked his stomach again. Deidara plopped down next to him and nibbled on his own rice ball. After Kakuzu scarfed down his food Deidara offered him water then mounted his clay bird.
"Do you want a lift, hm?" Deidara offered.
"Piss off." Kakuzu growled.
"Suit yourself, hm."
Deidara took flight, hiding in the clouds while keeping Kakuzu in sight. He headed down the path marked for Yugakure and hoped Hidan had not gotten too far ahead. He walked at a brisk pace until he saw a tea house. He was getting quite hungry again... He turned abruptly and entered the tea house. Inside he saw his lover sitting at a table with two men and a woman. He scowled and made his way over then paused. He was curious to know what they were talking about that was more important than their food.
He took the table behind Hidan so he would not be recognized and glanced at the menu. He picked something cheap but appetizing and ordered it in a quiet voice.
"It's been ages since we've seen you, Hidan." He heard the girl say.
"Sorry, my ass of a partner wants nothing to do with Jashinism so I couldn't swing by." Hidan laughed.
"Tch. Heathen bastard." One of the men grumbled.
"Yeah, but I love him anyways." Kakuzu could tell Hidan was smiling.
"Eh? You're gay?" The woman whined.
"Yeah babe, I told you this like a million times." The other man sighed.
"Can't believe you married this dumb bimbo, Ji." Hidan snickered.
"I am not a bimbo, brother!" The girl pouted.
"You're right... Hidan's more of a bimbo than you." The first man cackled.
"Damn right I am!" Hidan exclaimed.
"You just agreed that you're dumber than her, Hidan-chan." Kakuzu could not resist.
"K-Kakuzu! What the fuck are you doing out here?" Hidan exclaimed, "You should be resting!"
"I napped for thirteen hours last night. I don't see how you expect me to sleep longer." Kakuzu argued.
Who the fuck's this, Hidan?" A man with white hair and gold eyes asked.
"My partner for when I was in that shitty organization, sensei." Hidan shrugged.
"I'm his lover." Kakuzu glared at the casual introduction.
"So you're the heathen Hidan-sensei was going on about." The other man, one with blue hair pulled back into a ponytail smirked.
"That would be me."
"You should convert!" The woman slammed her hand on the table, "Brother can't be stuck with a heathen for long if he plans on keeping his immortality."
"What?" Kakuzu gaped."Hidan didn't tell me..."
"Sister, stop it!" Hidan protested, "He doesn't have to fucking convert if he doesn't want to."
"Tch, whatever. At least have him attend the gathering." The white-haired woman huffed.
"Not like I have a choice." Kakuzu grumbled as his food arrived, "Thanks to you, Hidan, I had to rely on Deidara. DEIDARA!"
"Rely on that dumb bitch for what?" Hidan asked suspiciously.
"He had to feed me when I collapsed." Kakuzu growled, slipping his mask up to eat the dango. "Mn... I never thought dango would taste so good..."
"You collapsed?" Hidan choked.
"Yeah, I had to catch up with you so I didn't get to eat nothing." Kakuzu shrugged, scarfing down the last of the treat.
"Shit, sorry man." He apologized, leaving his friends to join his pregnant lover.
"It's fine so long as you give me the rest of that dango."
"You hate dango though..." Hidan pouted but obeyed after receiving an accusing glare.
"You know my tastes have changed." Kakuzu scoffed, snatching the treat from Hidan's hand. "Mm, better than liver."
"Anything is better than liver..." Hidan mumbled; Kakuzu was eating that sweet treat way too slow...
Love ya all!~
