Chapter 10:

Normal Teenagers

"Come, we leave soon.", Sasori said.

I stared at him, and at Deidara who got up and put on his cloak. "I'm gonna go to the bathroom."

"Okay, make it quick.", Sasori told me.

I walked out of the room, and down the hall to the bathroom. The inn's bathrooms were actually quite clean compared to other bathrooms. I would've expected it to be more dirty, this being a ninja world. I went, and yeah, you people don't really wanna know what I saw.

"SHIT!", I yelled.

:xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx:

I walked back to our room trying not to panic. Sasori and Deidara were still in the room.

"Umm...", I muttered walking in.

"Hey. Ready to go, hmm?", Deidara asked.

I played with my fingers. "A-a-actually..." A blush crept onto my face again.

"What's up Kyra-chan?", Sasori walked up to me.

I looked down at my feet. "Y-y-y-y-you know that thing... It happens like... umm... once a month??? For umm... g-girls... we... umm... I need something... can we?

They both just stared at me as if I was a deranged psycho path that actually said something un-psycho. I looked at them. I was sure my whole face was glowing red enough to light up a small city. I looked back at my feet.

"What?", Deidara finally said.

I hit my face with my hand. "I need something that girls need! Something that happens every month, and if I don't have the right materials things get all messy!"

"Oh." Sasori said. Did he really get it? "We'll stop by a store and also get you clean underwear."

Thank the Lord, he understood. Deidara also nodded. He probably understood too.

:xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx:

"You think we can also get me some new clothes?", I wondered as we walked to the store.

Sasori shrugged. "Why not, I guess its alright."

Deidara grinned. "I'm gonna need to get more clay anyway. Lets go on a short shopping spree like normal teenagers, hmm. I bet you miss having friends around to act like normal teenagers, yeah?"

I returned his smile. It was true. I missed shopping with my friends. I missed acting and living as a normal teenager. "Sure. We'll shop all we want right now."

Sasori was like our guardian. "Now, don't go spending all of our money Deidara. Just cause you 2 are teenagers doesn't mean you both haven't been made legal adults."

That was also true. I'm 18. I don't know how old Deidara or Sasori are.

"Say, how old are you two?", I asked, listening to my stupid mind.

"I'm 19, hmm.", Deidara answered.

Sasori sighed. "35, but the looks and all, I'm 17."

I made a big smile, and took a hold of both their hands. "How very excellent! This way, I'll feel more like I'm at home by having 2 teenagers about my age with me."

They both made a smile, the warmest smiles I've ever seen from both of them. Sasori's smile was warmer than the other smiles he gave me. Deidara as well. This probably wasn't so bad. Hanging out with them. They're also going to be helping me find the pieces of memory that I lost.

:xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx:

We got to the store. It was actually like the malls back at home. This place was quite big, almost as if I was back home. There were a variety of smaller stores in it too. I looked around happily.

"This place is great! I wish we could all just live in this village like a---", I stopped my sentence. I can't think about that. I've got my own life at home, and I shouldn't be thinking about staying with 2 S-Rank Criminals... Even though they are both extremely--

"You're right Kyra-chan! This place is great, un! I've never been to anything like it!", Deidara grinned widely.

I looked around, and saw a store for clothing and such. "Ahh! Sasori, can I borrow money? I need to take care of my business."

Sasori nodded, and handed me some money. "Don't get too much. I gave you enough to buy what you need and extra."

I nodded, smiling at him. It's like... we've known each other for years. Then I walked into the store. I found my padding, and a couple of new pairs of underwear. I bought it and walked out of the store.

"I'm gonna go to the restroom now, k?", I winked at them.

"Sure, I'll take you there, Deidara, go buy what you need.", Sasori said.

"Of course, un. Meet me at the art store, yeah?", and he walked the opposite way.

I looked at Sasori. "You know where the restroom is?"

"Yeah. Just follow me.", he answered.

We walked to the restroom, and Sasori told me he'd wait outside of the restroom for me. I went in, changed underwear, and put on the padding.

There, no problem. I told myself.

Like he said, Sasori was waiting outside for me.

"You done?", he asked.

"I'm out of the restroom.", I crossed my arms.

"Okay, lets go see Deidara."

Then, we walked all the way over to the art store. Deidara was browsing around the clays and such. What caught my eye, was a sketchbook and the multitude of pencils. I walked over there slowly, and looked down at the sketchbooks. I sighed sadly. Me and Jeremy would draw together back at home. I don't even love him anymore, why do I care about him...

Deidara touched my shoulder. "Want one, un?"

I turned to look at him. "Will Sasori?"

Deidara pointed at Sasori. He was looking at all those parts the make puppets and such. We were all artists. We might as well have known each other in the past.

"Yeah. I want one... and a pencil.", I said.

Deidara looked at the sketchbooks and picked one up. "Here, un. It comes with a pencil, hardcover, and high quality paper."

My attention went to the price tag. "Whoa. That's a truckload of money to be spent Deidara-kun. Are you sure Sasori wi--"

"Why are you worried that I won't?", Sasori said.

Me and Deidara jumped. We were both surprised he was there.

"I-it's so expensive though Sasori-kun.", I mumbled.

"I don't have a problem with it. It's not like we're gonna go bankrupt from buying it.", he shrugged.

I stared at him in ecstasy. "Th-thank you Sasori-kun."

He gave me a warm smile. "Even S-Rank Criminals... are normal teenagers inside."

Well... What do ya'll think? Are you gonna continue reading my story???

Kyra's getting more comfortable around Sasori and Deidara. Do you think this friendship can continue on forever? Or will fate very soon... rip them apart?
