Chapter Ten: Get Away

Temari sat in her bedroom, propped up and brushing her golden hair. She was now feeling refreshed after a good bath, and she could rest more comfortably knowing Gaara was home. She then put her brush on her nightstand then fell into the soft cool sheets. She then sighed and looked up into the ceiling. Staring into the illuminating light, she began thinking of Deidara and how he was doing. Temari then rolled off her bed and walked to the light switch and turned it off. The moonlight shone through her open window and a calming breeze blew in. Temari then let out a large sigh of relief and comfort and gazed out into the night scenery. She then walked over to the window; putting a hand to her face, she then leaned over and watched what all the little villagers or other shinobis were doing. She saw some of them buying ice cream from the little cream carts. Some couples holding hands as they slowly walked through the streets, cuddling. She then let out small giggle and continued to watch.

A family walking with their little dog going a bit ahead, then waiting for them to catch up with a wagging tail. A group of giggling girls, a little younger than her, walking together in a group gossiping about school and who was eyeing out who. Temari then gave a sigh and looked up into the pale moon. While the breeze was still blowing, her long hair swayed and she gave another heavy sigh. 'Deidara…' she thought. A small slight blush came to her face. What was he going to do at the border? 'Maybe…' she thought. But she quickly discarded the idea. The thoughts of Deidara proposing to her, or the chances even were highly unlikely. After all, she was younger than him. Two years younger to be exact. But just the thoughts overflowed her heart of him. But if he were…and if possibly they were to marry…where would they live? Maybe they would find an abandoned house in a forest between the Sand and the Leaf. Deidara would still be with the Akatsuki, if he wanted to, and she would stay at home, waiting for him. And when he did, they would embrace in romance.

'But it's just fantasy…' she sighed. Fantasy. The chances of them being together would be extremely difficult. But if by chance, to be secretly married. To secretly be a couple together as they were already, maybe it could happen. Then maybe…someday, she would run away from the Sand. And he, run from Akatsuki. Both would live in the little villages, as new lives. She then smiled and walked over to her bed. Laying herself down, head resting on her pillow, Temari's eyes slowly began to close. Two days from today, she would meet Deidara at the border. Two days. It would seem like forever.

Deidara had now arrived in the town of Tanzaku. It was known as a gambling town, and in this place, people would only care about you if you had a whole wad of cash on you. But he wasn't here to gamble. Deidara was here to check in, and receive a payment he had been waiting to get for two years now. But he couldn't when Sasori danna was around. But now that he wasn't, Deidara was free to do what he pleased for this small time. Making his way to the Pachinko house, he went straight to one of the cashiers. A slow, bag eyed, mustached man in a lazily tied up kimono looked at him with sullen eyes. "Can I help you?" he asked lazily.

"I'm here to pick up my payment, hmm." Deidara replied.

"Oh really?" the man asked not believing any of it, "How much exactly?"

"Well, I guess it would be about a hundred thousand ryou yen…hmm." Deidara said, remembering exactly.

"I'm sorry, but we need to see a card first."

"Sorry, but you could say that this card of mine was blown right off of me…hmm." Deidara replied without a bit of humor in his voice.

"Well sir, I'm sorry but since you don't have your card, you can't take your payment so I'm afraid-!" the man was stopped short as Deidara grabbed him by the collar of his kimono.

"You will be much more afraid if you don't give me my money, unless you'd like something to blast a memory of return. Hmm!" Deidara threatened carefully. He was sure not to let any hint of him being in the Akatsuki out, otherwise he wouldn't be able to take his dearest to Adofuku like he promised.

'N-No sir!" the man stuttered as he got a briefcase and began stuffing money neatly, yet quickly into it. Just looking into this young man's eye was already scary enough. Whoever he was, he seemed to have some frightening aura come right off of him. "H-h-here! S-s-see you later, s-sir!"

"Yeah, hmm!" Deidara snorted as he made his way out, with briefcase in hand. Normally he wasn't like Kakuzu, doing things in order to get loads of money. He wasn't money greedy. Right now, Deidara just needed the money so that he would have enough to get a room at Adofuku, a meal for the two of them. The simple stuff guys would do for their favorite, and special lady. Getting on top of his clay bird, Deidara flew off to the border. After tomorrow, they would meet.

Temari groaned. She couldn't wait for the day to be over. Tomorrow she would go and see her darling, Deidara. But now she grunted in boredom. Here she was at the Ninmu station, assigning missions to Jounins, Chuunins and Gennins that had nothing else to do. Finally, she spotted two very irritating people to assign a mission to.

"Konnichiwa!!" they sang. It was the two groupie girls.

'Ugh! Kill me now!' Temari thought.

"Temari san, are you alright?" her assistants asked. "Are you feeling well?"

"I'm fine," Temari huffed. She then looked up at the groupie girls, "Ready for your next mission?" she asked.

"Actually, we request to see Gaara Sama!" one of them informed.

"Could we please see him? Please?" the other one asked.

"And for what?" Temari snapped. If there was one thing she didn't like, it was a bunch of girls that just wanted to bother her brother. She was glad that she didn't have to worry about Kankurou this way. He was always hanging around with his friends and freaking them out with his so called 'adorable, cute' puppets.

"Request to go on some dangerous missions." The short haired girl replied with a huge blush.

"A request to go and explore to place that hasn't been explored before!" the other one marveled with an even greater blush.

"Absolutely NOT!!" Temari roared scaring everyone. She then threw the mission document at them. "There's your next mission! Rank A since you want a dangerous mission! You are to escort and protect an art class on their way from Mist to Grass safely from other shinobis. Do I make myself clear?!"

"Perfectly!" they answered with nervousness, then they quickly ran out of the room. After a long silence one of her assistants finally spoke.

"Temari san," he began with caution, "are you okay?"

"I'm just fine," she huffed in reply. "I just want to get out of this damn place!"

"Well, we do have one hundred and fifty missions to assign before the end of today." Her other assistant pointed out reading the lists.

"Ugh! Why can't they get here any faster? Don't they know time is like money? You waste it and then you have nothing." She then leaned back in her chair. Then to her surprise, group after group of shinobis came. 'Lucky!!' she thought with delight as she quickly went back to work.

At the end of the day, she was completely exhausted. Opening the door to their home, Temari saw that some of Kankurou's friends were over and that they were all watching the Kugutsu Channel.

"I'm home," she greeted. She made a wave at his friends and they made a wave back.

"Welcome back," Kankurou greeted, "how was your day?"

"Don't get me started," Temari said as she sat next to him and watched the screen with him.

"Azaku brought okonomiyaki. You want?" he offered pointing to the kitchen.

"I'll pass. I had some sushi on my way back." Temari assured patting her stomach with a smile. She then got up and started walking towards the stairs. "Where's Gaara?" she asked.

"Asleep." Kankurou replied, "After Shukaku was taken out, I'm glad Gaara can take some rest now." Temari nodded too. Now Gaara could have sleep. A time to relax and refresh himself after a tiring day. Making her way up the stairs, she stopped by her room, picking out some home clothes, she went to the bathroom and took a shower.

When she was done, she went back to her room, folded her black kimono neatly and put it on her nightstand. Setting her fan next to her door, she then shut off the lights and quickly went to sleep. Tomorrow, she would travel to the border and meet up with Deidara.

The next day, Temari woken up early. Making adjustments to her fan, she finally headed off. She had already let everyone know about her going to Konoha so as to no one questioning about her destination. Making it to the entrance, Temari then had to observe the area, to make sure no sand storm looked as if it would block her way. When it had seemed clear, she continued her journey to the border. Racing across the golden sands and the morning sky, Temari hoped that she would catch up to him soon.

Deidara looked up to the sky. It was still morning, but in a few hours or so it might become noon. He sighed as he leaned next to his clay bird, waiting for her to show up. He wondered how he should begin things. Should he start with a "Hey! Long time no see, hmm!" or maybe a " Hey baby, hmm." Nah! That would be pretty lame. Either one of those two. But the more he thought, the tired he got. Maybe a nap would inspire him on what to say? Deidara thought the idea seemed pretty good. He looked up at the sky, his eyelid was getting heavy, and finally when he could look at it no more, he fell right to sleep.

He couldn't help but continue to look at her. She was so beautiful. How badly he wanted to have her with him forever. To be with him wherever he went. But he knew he couldn't.

"Something on your mind?" Temari asked as she looked up at him.

"No, nothing really…yeah." He lied.

"I don't believe you," she said as she looked at him in the eye, "please tell me what is the matter."

"It's just…that I really love you, I would sacrifice anything for you and it just kills me on how far we have to be apart from each other…yeah." He then held her closer to him. Deidara didn't want to let her go. "I love you too much. Every night when I have to leave to go back to the Akatsuki…I can't stop myself from thinking about you. I'm afraid of this becoming an obsession…yeah." He could feel his heart of the verge of bursting. He was speaking out his feelings to her.

"Deidara…" Temari spoke as she moved closer to him, "I understand. It's getting hard for me too. Can you feel it?" she asked as she placed his hand on her beating breast. Deidara could feel it perfectly. Heavy beats going on through her soft, warm chest. Temari then went close to him, leaning close, she laid her lips on his. Soon, his tongue rolled in and then wet smacking sounds were being heard. Hands were touching, then holding. In a tight grip, both did not want to let go. Finally, he had that feeling again. Excitement was swelling in his pants. Not out of lust, but out of love instead. Love for this woman that he loved so much.

He broke connection of their hands and he pulled her very close to him. Temari's hands then began to caress at his arms and then she took his hands. Placing them on her, she felt their tongues licking at her neck. Soon they began sucking on her soft skin. While they were still kissing, she could feel pleasure overwhelm her. His touch made her weak. Then finally, she moaned his name, "Deidara…"

"Deidara. Deidara."

Deidara opened his eye and saw Temari's beautiful figure leaning right over him. Smiling over him, heat coming from her to him. "You up yet?" she asked.

"How long have I been asleep…hmm?" he asked getting up.

"I don't know, but when I came I saw you." She then touched his left arm. "What happened to your arm though?" she was worried.

"It's nothing," he replied as he got on his bird, giving his only hand to her so that she may come on as well.

"Please tell me," Temari pleaded as she held on to him as they flew.

"I'll tell you when we get there." Deidara replied as they soared high into the sky. On their way to Adofuku.
