High School Adolescence Ch 9

Zetsu and Tobi sat at the café for lunch today. Zetsu had asked Tobi to join him there and Tobi had agreed right away. Tobi had to admit that he now had a crush on Zetsu. He was so embarrassed that Zetsu might find out but at the same time he wanted to tell him so badly. Zetsu smiled at Tobi as Tobi was lost in thought. "Can I be in on the secret?" Zetsu asked with a smile. Tobi's stomach did a flip flop of sensations just because Zetsu smiled at him.

"I was just thinking how nice it is to be here." Tobi said he wanted to add 'with you' but figured he would be pushing it. What would a senior want with him anyway? He was only a freshmen. Zetsu reached out and grabbed Tobi's hand. He ran his fingers softly over Tobi's and Tobi shivered. Tobi could feel the heat rising to his cheeks and hew as sure his hands must feel like ice. Tobi looked down to escape Zetsu's gaze. Zetsu laughed lightly.

"You know you're really cute. I like how shy you are. Do you like me?" Zetsu asked softly. Tobi looked up in panic. His face was bright red and he felt trapped all of a sudden. He began to stand up to escape this awkward situation and Zetsu caught him before he could. "Hey, it's okay if you do. I like you too." Zetsu said reassuringly. Tobi's eyes were as round as saucers now. He couldn't believe that a senior liked him. He smiled in embarrassment and looked away.

"You do?" He asked cautiously. "Yes, I do. I know there is a gap between us. I am a senior and seventeen and you are a freshmen and fourteen but I would love it if you would go out with me." Zetsu said. Tobi was even more surprised. His face was never going to be any color but red now. He looked down and nodded. "I will go out with you." He said quietly. Zetsu smiled. "Cool. So I was wondering if you would like to go out to the movies with me on Friday night?" Zetsu asked.

Again Tobi nodded and smiled. He was going to have a heart attack if this kept up. Zetsu laughed softly again. "Hey, you don't have to be so shy. I promise I won't embarrass you or make you regret going out with me, okay?" Zetsu asked. Tobi smiled and nodded. "Okay. I just have never had a boyfriend before. I don't really know what to do in a relationship." Tobi said turning an even darker shade of red. Zetsu laughed softly yet again. "Hey, neither have I. This is new to me too. So why don't we figure it out together?" Zetsu asked.

Tobi nodded vigorously. "I'd like that." He said. Zetsu smiled back and looked into Tobi's eyes. "Yeah, me too." He said. They finished their lunch and went to Zetsu's car to head back to the school. Zetsu leaned over once in the car and caught Tobi's chin. He kissed Tobi on the lips and Tobi's eyelids fluttered closed. At first it was scary but then the feel of Zetsu's soft warm lips against his own, was fantastic. Zetsu was slow and easy. He didn't try to force anything and when he pulled away from Tobi they were both blushing.

Tobi smiled at Zetsu to let him know that he had liked the kiss. Zetsu smiled back and started the car. They went back to school and Zetsu parked in his usual spot in the senior parking lot. Sasori was in his car listening to his radio when they pulled up. Zetsu got out of the car and went to Open Tobi's door. Sasori watched in amusement. Zetsu smiled at Sasori as Tobi got out and stood next to him. Zetsu put an arm around Tobi's waist and pulled him against him in the parking lot.

He lifted Tobi's head once more and gave him another soft kiss. Sasori was totally amused now. He reached out the window and gave Zetsu a knuckle bump. "Don't break him." Sasori said. Zetsu smiled. "As if." He said back. He turned Tobi towards the school and headed to the entrance meanwhile a blond was passing them on his way to the senior parking lot. Tobi stopped and spoke to the blond getting a squeal and a hug. Tobi laughed and began walking with Zetsu again who took his hand in his and intertwined their fingers.

They entered the building and went to the locker area to get ready for their next class. Deidara stormed up to Sasori's car. "I want it back, un." He said. Sasori lazily rolled his eyes. "I don't know what you are talking about Brat." He said monotonously. Deidara glared. "My painting, un. I know you have it. I want it back, un." He said with his hands on his hips. Sasori laughed. "You really should see yourself. With your hands on your hips and that long hair and cute pout, you look like a chic." He said mockingly.

Deidara turned beat red from anger. He stomped his foot and growled. "Give it back, un." He said haughtily. "What are you going to give me for it?" Sasori asked. Deidara gave him a confused look. "Give you, un?" He asked. Sasori laughed sadistically. "Yeah, give me. Think about it. I am sure you can come up with something in that pretty blond head of yours." Sasori said. "I don't – did you just call me pretty, un?" He asked. Sasori laughed again. He turned off the key and pulled it out of the ignition. He got out of his car and closed the door and began walking back towards the doors of school.

Deidara followed behind trying to figure out what the red head had meant. "What did you want me to give you, un?" Deidara asked. Sasori grinned and opened the double doors. He walked in and Deidara was on his heels. "You are so naïve. I could tell you but I want to see if you can figure it out on your own or if I will have to tell you later." Sasori said laughing in amusement at the look on Deidara's face. "Don't look so disgruntled. If you think really hard you just might figure it out." Sasori said. Deidara turned and stormed off to his locker. He hated riddles and this felt just like that. He slammed his locker door about seven times to make himself feel better only to hear Sasori laughing in the senior section which made him angrier.

Hidan was standing just outside of the school in the court yard. Class was going to be starting in a couple of minutes and he was going to be late but he didn't really care. He leaned against the building and huffed. He had really blown it on his date with Kakuzu. He knew he shouldn't have been so paranoid but who could really blame him. The guy was bipolar. Or at least he was part bipolar. Not two weeks before the guy had wanted him dead. Two weeks later the guy wants to date him.

It didn't make a whole lot of sense to him. Kakuzu came out the doors to the court yard and found Hidan standing next to the building. "Hey, you know class is about to start don't you?" Hidan rolled his eyes and made to walk passed Kakuzu without a word. Kakuzu grabbed Hidan by the arm to stop him. "Hidan, I am sorry for getting pissed. I just wanted to make things right with us. Things were a little crazy for us at the beginning but I really do like you. I want to be with you. If you think its bull then I will count my blessings that I got a date with you at least and not pursue you any further." He said.

Hidan looked at the ground and then the brick building. He turned to face Kakuzu and then stepped up to him. He grabbed Kakuzu's cheeks and kissed his lips. Kakuzu wrapped his arms around Hidan and held him against him as the second bell rang. They could deal with the consequences of being late some other time. Right now they were having a moment. Hidan moaned softly into the kiss making Kakuzu's head swim. They were so lost in each other that they never noticed Pein and Sasori watching them through the window.

The two guys were smiling in amusement. Pein gave Sasori a light punch on the arm and the two moved away from the windows. They went to their free period where they could do whatever they wanted. Kisame walked down the hall next and just happened to look out the window and see the two kissing and groping each other furiously. Kisame stopped dead in his tracks and watched in surprise. He had known that Kakuzu liked the silver haired boy but he hadn't known it had come to this. He smiled and moved on. He was happy for his friend if his friend was happy.
