From Dusk till Dawn Ch 9
Deidara sat nervously waiting for his dad to come home from work. He had yet to tell his dad that he was gay and that he had a boyfriend who wanted to take him to the spring formal.
The kitchen seemed to get smaller as the seconds ticked by. He swallowed nervously as he watched the front door. He was on the verge of jumping out of his skin when he felt a pair of arms wrap around him and pull him against their chest.
Deidara turned to see Sasori standing there grinning a Cheshire cat grin. Deidara smiled and turned around in his arms. "What are you doing here, un?" He asked with a glimmer in his eyes. "I wanted to see you and see if you truly wanted to go to the dance with me."
Sasori already knew he wanted to but what if something or someone changed his mind beforehand. Sasori couldn't remember feeling this happy in his entire existence. Deidara wrapped his arms around his neck and pulled his lips to his.
He gave Sasori a sweet kiss and pulled back to look at him. "Of course I want to go with you, but you need to go, un. I need to talk to my dad." Deidara said as a blush crept up his neck to his cheeks.
"About me?" Sasori asked curiously. "Yes, un. I have to tell him that I am gay and that you are taking me to the Spring Formal." He said feeling the blush grow hotter on his skin. Sasori smiled and vanished in a flash. Now to go back to the nervousness.
His father came home not fifteen minutes later and he sat staring at the floor twiddling his fingers. His dad hung up his coat and but his cooler away. He wandered further into the kitchen to see Deidara sitting there looking nervous and fidgety.
He knew the boy must have something on his mind by the way he looked at the floor and acted as though he were about to run away any second. He wandered over to the table and pulled out a chair sitting down next to his son to find out what was on the teen's mind.
"Hey kiddo, what's up? You want to talk about it?" He asked. Deidara looked up at his father and all of his courage flew out the window. He went to speak and only a squeak came out. He took a deep breath and tried again.
"Whatever it is, you can tell me. I will listen and try to understand what it is that is bugging you." His dad said gently. Deidara thought for a moment and then took another breath. ",un." He said all in a rush.
His dad sat looking very confused trying to pick out the words to make sense of it. Deidara jumped to his feet and fled the room up the stairs and onto his bed. His dad sat figuring out what he had said and it all finally came together.
His father thought for a moment over the words and then the reality hit him. His son was gay and he has a boyfriend already. Wow this was going to take some getting used to. He stood up to go find his son and comfort him the best he could.
He just hoped he knew the right words to say to make it better and not worse. Upon reaching his son's door he pressed his ear to it and listened. All he heard was silence and that made him a little worried. He turned the knob and the door opened easily.
Deidara laid face down on his bed and he looked as though he was on the verge of suffocating himself. If he was still as nervous as he was in the kitchen then he very well may be. His dad approached the desk and grabbed the chair.
He walked over to the bed and sat down in the chair waiting for the words to come to him. "Deidara, will you roll over here please so we can talk?" His dad asked gently. Deidara sighed and rolled over to face his father. He looked on the verge of tears as he did.
"Okay, un." Deidara said now looking at the floor and making small circles with his fingers on the bedspread. He was so sure his father was going to throw him out or hate him or both. "Deidara I am not real sure what to say to you at the moment.
But I want you to know that I still love you and you will always have a home here. I don't know how I feel about you having a boyfriend that I haven't ever met but I can say that this is going to be a little different for me." His father looked directly into his son's eyes as Deidara made eye contact.
Deidara jumped up and threw his arms around his dad's neck as the tears began to roll down his cheeks. "Thank you, un. I love you too, dad." He said as his dad hugged him back tightly. "You can meet him if you want to, I will make it happen, un."
Deidara looked at his dad in a hopeful manner. His dad smiled and nodded. "That would be a good idea." Deidara smiled back and jumped up and down like a child who had just been given candy. His father laughed and went downstairs to make dinner as Deidara danced around his room.
Sasori came in through the window. He smiled at Deidara who was twirling in circles making him self dizzy. "You alright there, Deidara?" Sasori asked catching Deidara by surprise and making him yelp. He laughed at the blonde who looked so adorable when he was embarrassed.
He walked over to Sasori and hugged him close as he tried to calm his blush. Sasori laughed and held him close. "My dad wants to meet you, un." Deidara said his voice muffled by Sasori's shirt. "I heard." Sasori said as Deidara looked at him in a "I can't believe you eavesdropped manner."
"What? I was just outside and I can't help I have vampire hearing. I could start wearing earplugs if you like." He said with a smile. Deidara grinned at the thought. "No, un. Just stop listening to everything." He said with a smile.
"Okay, but I can't guarantee that you will be happy if I don't" Sasori said and hugged Deidara closer. "So when can you come over to meet him, un?" Deidara asked laying his head on Sasori's shoulder. "How about Saturday and you bring your friends to keep all the attention off of me." Sasori said looking at the bed behind Deidara.
"Okay, un. I will have to tell my dad so he won't be surprised when they show up, un." Deidara said as he pulled Sasori over to the bed and they lay down on the bedspread and cuddled. Deidara was about to say something when to Sasori when his dad called him to dinner.
He kissed Sasori quickly and rushed down the stairs. Sasori looked around the room as he had often done and it was clear to him that Deidara was still like a child. He had a few stuffed animals around the room but mostly the posters on his walls were what made him think that.
On one wall was a Transformers poster from the movie and the one next to it was Star wars with Darth Mahl on it. Sasori shook his head and smiled. He loved that side to Deidara. He couldn't wait to see what other sides he could see of the blonde.
Deidara returned and closed his door. He walked over to Sasori and climbed back onto the bed with him. Sasori sighed contentedly as he held the blonde to him. They lay talking quietly for most of the evening about the dance and his friends and about his dad.
Sasori smiled at the now sleeping blonde and slid out from under him and covered him up as he stepped out the window and went home. Deidara's dad came to see if he was still up and smiled when he saw his son sound asleep. He was happy for his son even if he was still having a little trouble with the Sexual preference of his son.
