Kisame yawned, he looked at the clock: 6:39 am. "Why am I awake at 6:39?" he thought to himself. Kisame got out of bed, he knew he would never fall back asleep, besides he knew that Sasori would be up packing Lola's lunch before she left for the law office. Kisame changed clothes and went downstairs. Sasori was just finishing up his daily tacky pick up line on Lola's paper towel. Kisame looked up at Kisame, Sasori didn't look exactly thrilled.

"I hate the fitness club." Sasori said dully.

"Why man? That place kicks ass!

"I have never been this sore in my entire life! Oh my god….the pain is just….you have no idea." Sasori said.

"Sasori, when was the last time you worked out as hard as you did yesterday?" Kisame asked joining Sasori's morning coffee routine. Sasori thought a moment.

"I have no damn clue….God….maybe like…..10 years ago?"

"Exactly! A few more workouts at the club and you will be just fine." Kisame encouraged.

"You know, my grandma was right….'you just can't do everything Sasori, you'll find something you're not good at'. God! Why is my grandma always right! Just when I think I'm going to prove her wrong." Sasori laughed. "Although my grandma also always said 'Sasori East coast girls aren't like Suna girls…my god…was she ever right…of course I also think that I took it in a different way than she meant it…anyway what do you think of this pick-up line? Is it tacky enough?"

"Can I have your phone number? I lost mine." Kisame read it out loud. "Man that is all kinds of tacky." Sasori laughed.

"Sweet, I'll put it in her lunch bag," Sasori said dropping it inside. It wasn't too much longer that Lola appeared down the staircase. She didn't look very excited.

"Okay…..so the fitness club…..yeah not a good idea. I forgot that nothing about me is bendy and little about me is athletic anymore. I blame the fitness club for my soreness this morning." Lola said dryly. Kisame laughed.

"It'll get better Lola. Just give it a little time." Lola just looked doubtfully at Kisame, grabbed her thermos of coffee that Kisame had packed for her, kissed him goodbye and headed out the door.

"So, you get up at 7:00 with Lola, she goes to the office at 8:00….what do you do before everyone else wakes up? You know, especially before Deidara wakes up and says or does something stupid that pisses you off." Kisame wondered.

"I drink some more coffee, read the paper, go make our bed, then I typically find something to fix for dinner and check out the pantry to see if I need to pick up anything from the store. And then, if I have any extra time I try and think of ways to get Deidara to quit saying the phrase 'I just totally don't get that, yeah'."

"Hmmm…I actually never realized you did so much in a day." Kisame said. "But for now, I'm going back to the fitness club. I want to get there before it gets crowded with the stay at home moms who leave their kids at that day care place in the facility."

"See ya." Sasori said not looking up from his morning paper. The fortunate thing for Sasori was the 21 minutes of peace he got from not having to deal with Deidara or Itachi. Of course, he knew it would be a 21 minutes of short lived peace because they would be awake in exactly that time frame. The appearance of Zetsu that morning was an unlikely sight…Zetsu's darker side was not a morning person….

"Ugh, I don't think I'm ever going to lift free weights again. Look at this! This spot on my head is even more swollen than it was yesterday!" Zetsu said showing Sasori the spot.

"You want another ice pack? I'll make you one." Zetsu sighed.

"I guess I should. Stupid plant head!" Zetsu said sitting on the kitchen bar stool. It seemed as though Zetsu was facing a tough day ahead. "But you know, as much as my head hurts I think I'm going to be going back to that place. I liked it, even though it was painful. Hey, by the way, isn't Lola graduating really soon?" Zetsu asked.

"Next month." Sasori answered.

"Is she excited?"

"Would you be excited about graduating with your second PhD. degree knowing that your career path is finally complete?" Sasori asked not really needing an answer. Zetsu laughed.

"Good point." Just as Zetsu was going to continue this conversation, his thoughts were interrupted my screaming upstairs. It was much too early for screaming.

"I TOLD YOU! HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU! DON'T USE MY PORE CLEANSING CREAM!" Itachi yelled at none other than Deidara who had now run out of their master bedroom and was headed downstairs.

"Good god, just when I thought this was going to me a nice morning." Sasori mumbled.

"I just don't get Itachi, yeah. I mean my god one minute he's all 'here you can use my stuff' then the next minute he's like don't' touch my stuff or I'll knock you in the head, yeah. Then he's all 'hey Deidara I need some help in here' and then he's all 'get the hell out of here you're breathing my air.' I mean it's like Itachi has these hormonal fluctuations that just send his mood intoa frenzy and I swear there are days when he is just like so totally….." Deidara rambled coming down the stairs and into the kitchen, not paying any attention and shoving Sasori out of the way so Deidara could get to his loaf of wheat bread. Sasori cut Deidara off.

"Who was in the kitchen first? Who was in here before you minding his own business not bothering anyone? Hmm?" Sasori questioned him slightly pissed already.

"Oooooh, did you not get any last night, yeah? Because usually when you start this questioning thing that you do when I do what you don't like because you think that I'm all….you know annoying or whatever because I am like just so never annoying I mean so it just makes me wonder if you even….."

"DEIDARA! MY GOD SHUT UP!" Deidara was upset.

"You are so the second person today that has yelled at me and it's only 8:42, yeah. I am not off to a good start today. Oh my god, the paper! Maybe there's a sale somewhere, yeah." Deidara took the newspaper nearly out of Sasori's hands not even realizing that he MIGHT be reading it. "OH MY GOD! PLAY-DOH 6 PACK CRAZY COLORS ARE ONE SALE AT WAL-MART, YEAH!"

"I wasn't reading that or anything. Nope, not looking at that paper at all. I wasn't reading the Wall Street section or the community awareness section." Sasori mumbled to himself. He figured it would be best to pour another cup of coffee and flee the scene before he lost it towards Deidara.

"Well hey, I'm off to see if Hidan will go back to the fitness club with me." And with that Zetsu took off. Apparently the fitness club was the new Akatsuki hobby.
