"Chapter Ten: Random Plants and Emos"
It had been three days since the "hooking up" of Itachi and Keiko, and Sasori and Myoko. It was quite obvious that the last remaining couple was Zetsu and Ame.
Things between them went smoothly, but was slightly awkward and tense when they were around the cuddling couples.
The way they nonstop made-out had Zetsu grossed out and terrified.
Itachi and Keiko claimed to have not done anything yet, but if they had, they left no traces of evidence suggesting it.
Sasori and Myoko were often snuggling against each other, ignoring the world, as they listened to Myoko's iPod.
"How long?" Ame finally rounded on Zetsu, who was busy with his back turned, fidgeting with something...
"Hm?" He asked, or more like grunted, taking a momentary reprieve from his intense concentration.
"I said, how long?" Ame demanded crossly.
"How long for what?" He asked, turning his head slightly, so that his dark side was showing.
"How long until you make a move?" She yelled in anger.
Zetsu said nothing.
"What the fuck is so important that you have to ignore me when I'm talking to you?"
She grabbed his shoulder, and spun him around.
He was holding something in his hand. Something red...
"Give it here, plant boy."
"It's not finished blooming!" He stated, watching in terror as the girl snatched it up and stared in awe.
It was a rose...
"Zetsu? Who was this for?"
"For? It wasn't for anyone, I just wanted to do the world some justice and show the rose that it had competition, for the most beautiful flower..."
Upon her confused looks, he sighed and said, "It was for you..."
He gave her a hurt look, as if she had rejected him before she could even proccess what he had said.
"Th-thanks, Zetsu. Umm, hey, what's that look for?" She demanded crossly, seeing the pain in his eyes.
"Just condemn me to a life of solitude. Don't worry about my feelings, just tell me you don't feel the same, and get it over with!"
She stared at him- he had just confessed his feelings for her.
And she, somehow, felt the same.
She moved forward to comfort him, and he flinched away, grmacing, closing his eyes as if he couldn't bear to look at her.
But his eyes slowly fluttered open as she pressed a soft, gentle kiss, full of returning emotion and feelings for him...
He smiled into the kiss, and leaned slightly deeper.
Suddenly there was a knock at the door.
They jerked apart, almost unwillingly.
"Come in." Ame said quietly.
"Tobi is a good boy. Tobi is here to tell pretty lady and plant that Pein wants to see everyone at nine. Campfire. Bye pretty lady! Tobi waved frantically, as if she could miss the oversized lollipop in Akatsuki robes...
"You're name is Tobehh!" Ame yelled, riding on Tobi's back, while he bucked and cried mercilessly.
"What are you doing to poor litle Tobi?" Konan asked, cracking a grin.
"BREAKING HIM OF HIS LITTLE CRUSH ON ME!"
She laughed maniacally, and said sadistically, "Once he gets to know my Dark side, he'll never be the same."
Tobi cried, "TOBI IS A GOOD BOY! TOBI DOESN'T LIKE PLANT GIRL! TOBI THINKS PLANT GIRL IS... NOT PRETTY!"
"Aw, Tobi, are you okay?" Konan asked the recently released Tobi.
"N-n-no! Bad plant girl. Scary!"
"Okay, Tobi, calm down, and get ready for dinner. It's gonna be good."
"Ooh, what is it?"
"Tobi stew!" She laughed evilly, as Tobi ran off screaming.
"Heheh works everytime." Konan and Ame high-fived.
