Deidara woke up the next morning to see Yuki struggling to pull the table to the center of the room. He blinked his eyes at her tiredly before yawning. He stood up taking the table from her. She squeaked softly falling backwards on to the ground.
"It looked like you needed help un," Deidara told her picking the table up placing it into the center of the room. To him the table was surprising light almost shrugging off the thought that Yuki was becoming weaker.
"I can do it," Yuki replied before beginning to cough again.
"What going on Yuki-chan?" Deidara asked helping her to her feet.
"It's nothing," Yuki replied breaking away from his grip picking up his tray of food. Something wrong with her…she seems to be upset Deidara thought following her to the table. She quickly laid out his food and utensils before leaving with the platter. I can't just leave the food she made for me…I'll eat quickly, clean and dress.
"I can't tell him," Yuki sighed outside the door.
"Can't tell sempai what?" Tobi asked exiting his room.
"It's nothing," Yuki replied almost to tears. She ran down the hall into a storage closet. How could she repaint the concert hall…how could she do that?! How could she?! Yuki thought crying her eyes out.
"Yuki! Oh Yuki! Where the hell are you?!" Kimi asked walking down the hall. Yuki gasped gently covering her mouth as she passed.
"Ah! Kimi-san! Have you seen Yuki-sama?" Tobi asked poking her arm gently.
"Get away from me! I don't even know why Yuki is letting you stay here!" Kimi screamed slapping Tobi's face.
"Tobi didn't do anything to you," he replied rubbing his cheek.
"You were touching me! Anyways if you see Yuki tell me," Kimi spat storming off. She walked down the hall taking a glance at Deidara's door. That's where that cute blonde is staying. If I can get him to fall in love with me Yuki will be devastated Kimi thought with a smirk. She waited for Tobi to leave before stopping at his door. She waited patiently applying a fresh coat of lip gloss to her lips and powder to her cheeks. Kimi unlocked the door with the skeleton key she owned.
"Yuki-chan you're back!" Deidara said softly.
"NOT Yuki someone better!" Kimi began entering the room, "Tada!" Deidara's smile quickly turned sour seeing Kimi.
"What do you want?!" Deidara asked returning to his meal.
"I just wanted to talk," Kimi replied inviting herself in. She sat at the table leaning over it so Deidara could see her cleavage. He looked at her quickly before returning to his food.
"You're not welcome," Deidara replied.
"Please I just want to know about you," Kimi said softly. She reached over gently taking his hand. Bewildered Deidara stood up quickly knocking over the table and all of its food.
"What the hell do you think you're doing un?!" Deidara roared. Frightened Kimi laid sprawled out on the floor covered in food, cups and plates.
"Look at the floor!" Kimi cried sitting up. The sauces and food stained the Tatami mats bellow her. What was I thinking?! This is Yuki's place not mine. I know I have enough money to pay her back Deidara thought hitting his head.
"Get out," Deidara said softly trying to control his anger.
"Please don't think badly of me. I didn't cause this," Kimi begged bringing fake tears to her eyes.
"GET OUT!" Deidara screamed causing Kimi to scurry out the door. He sighed angrily picking up the food and the shards of cups and bowls. How am I going to explain this to Yuki? He thought fixing the table placing the discarded food, bowls and cups on top of it.

"Tobi have you seen Yuki-chan?" Deidara asked encountering him in the hall. He looked for her all day long and STILL he didn't find her.
"Yuki-chan, Sempai has never used that before," Tobi replied with a chuckle.
"Just answer the question," Deidara said sternly.
"No I haven't seen Yuki-chan," Tobi replied playfully. Angrily Deidara gripped his neck holding Tobi above his body.
"Don't joke with me! Un," Deidara barked before dropping him.
"I have not seen Yuki-san," Tobi replied plainly.
"Dammit," Deidara muttered softly.
"I saw her this morning Sempai. She seemed really sad," Tobi replied.
"Where did she go?!" Deidara asked.
"I don't know, she ran down one of the halls and disappeared," Tobi replied.
"I'm going to look for her," Deidara muttered leaving Tobi on the ground. Deidara searched her room first unfortunately seeing that she was not there. He checked the hot spring, the front desk, and the newly painted concert hall and still did not find his Yuki. As his last resort he checked her small shop.
"Yuki-chan," Deidara called out hearing her cries. He looked under her work table to see her huddled against the wall.
"Come Yuki-chan," Deidara said softly taking her hand.
"N-No," Yuki cried.
"Then can I join you?" Deidara asked sitting next to her.
"N-No," she replied throwing her arms around his neck.
"Can you tell me what happened?" Deidara asked kissing her cheek.
"She painted the hall," Yuki sobbed.
"I noticed," Deidara muttered.
"She doesn't want to use it!" Yuki cried.
"Everything will be alright un," Deidara replied rubbing her back.
"No it won't! No it won't!" Yuki replied.
"Where does she want her wedding now? Un," he asked kissing her forehead.
"On a cliff…near the beach," she replied cuddling next to him.
"Do you want me to help you stop this?" he whispered in her ear.
"Kiss me," Yuki muttered softly.
"What?" he replied.
"Kiss me," she uttered clearly. Holding her tightly Deidara hesitantly kissed her lips. Yuki blushed softly placing her hands on his shoulders.
"How was that?" Deidara replied softly.
"Again," Yuki muttered.
"Come again?" Deidara asked bewildered.
"Again," Yuki restated. She didn't give him a chance to respond as she gently pressed her lips on his. Is this real…Or am I in a pleasant dream? Yuki thought trying to catch her breath. Deidara forced their lips apart to look at her face. She giggled softly trying to kiss him again.
"Yuki-chan, think this over. You're probably delusional because of your crying. I this what you really want? Un," Deidara replied pulling her close.
"This is what I want. I want you," Yuki replied.
"Lets get out from under the table," Deidara muttered pulling her out. He noticed that her skin had become paler and her eyes were loosing their sparkle.
"I'll be okay," she said gently noticing his surprised expression.
"How sick are you?" Deidara asked softly.
"I'm sorry," she was only able to mutter. Yuki pushed past him sitting at her work desk continuing to make her clay roses. Deidara sighed walking around her shop.
"Do you ever take a break?" Deidara asked looking at a figurine of a tiger.
"No…The wedding is tomorrow," Yuki replied coldly. He walked back to her placing a hand on her shoulder.
"I want to help," Deidara replied messaging her shoulders.
"Can you paint?" Yuki asked.
"No, I can help you make the flowers," Deidara replied.
"I can't let you do that," Yuki replied coughing into her arm.
"Please, if you want to be lovers let me help you," Deidara replied kissing the top of her head.
"Alright," Yuki sighed standing up to find more clay.
"But…I have to show you something first," Deidara whispered into her ear softly. He pulled her into his arms turning her away from his face.
"What?" Yuki asked curiously.
"As you know I'm a shinobi…and I'm an arsonist," Deidara started reaching into his bag pulling out a wad of clay.
"An arsonist," Yuki repeated.
"Watch," Deidara sighed as the mouths in his hands devoured the clay before creating a small bird.
"It's not that bad," Yuki replied unfazed by his actions. She turned in his arms hugging him tightly, "No matter what Deidara-chan has on the outside he will still be my Deidara-chan on the inside." Shocked at her words he was temporarily stunned by her words.
"Do you really mean that?" Deidara asked kissing her cheek softly.
"Yes," she whispered as his lips gently graced her in a true romantic kiss. The love that had sprouted exploded into full bloom and nothing could ever destroy it.
