Chapter 9

Wait… Leader didn't?

I awoke the next morning early... that's what I get for breaking down and being an idiot! I went to the bathroom and wiped away the dry tear marks, and made myself look better. I then started to make MYSELF some eggs, and I wouldn't care if anyone wanted some, I would just ignore them.

"Hey! Can I have some bitch?" Said Deidara, entering. I realized that if Deidara had woken up he would soon...

"Shit" I cursed

"Wow! Our language is rubbing off on you haha uhn"

"Just shut up."

"What are you angry about?"

"Nothing."

"Oh, it's about yesterday... What DID happen?"

"I said shut up! "

"Gosh, I was just curious!"

"Curiousity killed the cat" Said Sasori, coming in. And I froze.

"But I'm not a cat uhn!" Deidara retorted

"It doesn't matter, cats don't wanna blow up everything."

"So? They would be better that way!"

"Even if all they said was that Art is a Bang?"

"Yep!"

"And that annoying as hell 'uhn'?"

"What do you mean uhn?"

"Never mind."

"Akari!" Moaned Deidara

"What are you? A three year old?" I said, still not turning.

"I don't care how old I sound! I want some damn eggs uhn!"

"Make your own."

"Buut I dunno hoooooooow!"

"But you watch me every time I make them!"

"But I dunno hoooooooow!"

"Just shut up." I said. Soon everyone came down and made THEIR OWN DAMN BREAKFAST! I went and relaxed in my room.

"Pffft... why is it so boring here?" I murmured to myself. I then looked to the trash bin where I had thrown that damned diary. I then went up and grabbed it. And then looked at the entry. Why exactly was I doing this? I really didn't know.

"Oh, that told me a looooot about you." I heard a voice from the door. Once again I froze

"Why so tense?" Asked Sasori

"My life sucks" I answered

"How?"

"Don't you know already?"

"In a way yes."

"Then why ask how?"

"Small talk."

"Go away."

"Why are you looking at that?"

"What do you mean."

"You should know it by now. You wrote it."

"Leave me alone."

"No."

"Then what do you want?"

"Leader wants me to train with you."

"Grrrrrraaah" I moaned as I got up from my 'oh so comfy' bed and got my bow. And then we left for our 'Training grounds'. We then began.

"Why are you so gloomy today?" He asked

"I see you ignoring it."

"Yep."

"Must be nice to forget something..."

"Hn?" He asked, as once more he threw the puppet at me, along with poisoned kunai and senbons. I dodged and hit the puppet with an arrow.

"After what I've experienced in my life, forgetting would be paradise."

"Is it that hard to simply forget something?"

"For me yes. No one forgets your entire village turning on you, trying to kill you, bashing into Hiruko, and then 'this'" I said, dodging an attack.

"I would guess so..." He pondered. I then broke the puppet he was using and he switched immediately. And once again it attacked me with poison. I dodged

"Pffft. Just guessing so doesn't do much."

"So?"

"Nevermind." I said. Then I aimed an arrow at him and fired, I then felt embarrassed for some reason and looked away.

"Your open." He said, from behind me. Oh sh*t! If he was my enemy I would be stabbed right there!

"Your good!" I said, turned around smiling, I was surprised he was so close.

"Hn?" He said. Then my world went white. All I saw was him, as his lips touched mine. I felt light as a feather. I felt like I COULD just forget everything bad and stay with him in his arms forever. He then broke away.

"W-what was that." I said blushing.

"I lied."

"About what?"

"Leader telling me to train with you."

"R-really? Why?"

"I wanted to tell you I felt the same way."

"O-oh..." I said, looking away. Did good things really happen to people like me? After such bad luck there had to be some good right?

"Akari." He said. I looked up

"W-what?"

"I love you." He said. Those three words meant more to me than anything. Ever.

" I love you too." I said, my voice able to say THOSE works of anything steadily.

"That's what I needed to hear" He said

"S-same h-here." I said, and then I collapsed, my legs were a bit like jelly in a situation like this. He caught me.

"Aren't you Akatsuki?" He said

"We aren't all used to the love of their life saying they love you!"

"Wait what?"

"I can't shut up can't I?"

"No." He said, keeping from laughing. To think I was FINALLY in his arms, he was laughing, and loved me. Dreams? People have them. And some are lucky to have them come true...

"We should head back" I said, my voice was coming back under control, thank god!

"I agree," He said, "Can you stand?"

"I guess," I said, getting up onto my feet, at first I was a bit wobbly but I was stable, "Yeah"

"Then lets go." He said. And we started back, me returning different. Him relieved.
